mitochondriaayaAya winced and set her coffee back on the dash "Hot ow. Hot." She knew sucking in air to cool her tongue was utterly uncool for a hardened detective but damn it...hot! It didn't help that her partner was making the 'I warned you' face at her.
"Add milk and it cools." Danny pointed out helpfully, smugly sipping his own drink.
"Blasphemy." she muttered, peeling the lid off in the hopes it'd cool faster "Besides, you don't add milk. You add creepy soy stuff and whip and something else that sounds like it might have been cream once."
"Hey, I add milk at the counter, once they make the drink. Need my calcium."
"That's just disturbing. I don't know how I put up with you and your rampant coffee abuse..." she sniffed and leaned back in her seat again to view the upper story of the building they were parked near.
"Well, you put up with me because I don't scare easy and I make your life better." Danny noted with a grin "You brought food right? I don't want Ben to yell at me for eating fast food again..."
"Right, introducing a domineering nine year old into my life has made things so much better. I don't know how to thank you!" Aya rolled her eyes and grinned at her partner. "Yeah, back seat."
"Hey, not just a nine year old! What about Dilan huh? You've been on what, three dates now? Four? Somewhere around there. That was all me."
"All you? As I recall he asked, Danny." Aya snorted and poked her partner "But yeah. You want me to say thanks or something?"
"No, I'm good. I'm just going to be smug." Danny noted with a cheerful grin "You know the guys are going to catch on soon."
"Don't remind me." she sighed "Or better, remind me when the time comes for me not to kill them when they corner Dilan."
"Right, no killing spree at the precinct. We're understaffed as is." he shook a finger chidingly at her. "And they don't get to corner him before I do."
"WHAT?!" she sat up quickly to glare at Danny "You do not! Jesus! The last thing I want anyone to do is poke at this until it goes away!"
"Whoa girl. Whoa!" cup holders were great. They let him set his coffee aside so he could make soothing motions in her direction. Now was not the time for an upset cop. Nope. "I'm not going to chase him off! Just ask a few questions, you know, intentions and all..."
"God Danny, there's nothing dark or sinister. His intentions, apparently, are to date me like a normal person okay? Beyond that? He thinks I'm attractive okay? Usual connotations there alright?"
"...what usual connotations? I mean, no one gets to date my partner just to get in her pants okay? That'd be bad for you, and you know it. You get attached and all, so I just want to ask him if he's sticking around or you know..."
"I don't believe we're actually talking about this...we've had four dates! Four! You don't need to play the dad staying home with a shotgun!"
"Hey, four dates, same person, and how many years since you've actually pulled that off?"
"It's not serious, Danny. It's just nice. Really fucking nice okay? He's a good person and he makes me happy alright?"
"...damn." Not serious his ass. "I'm not going to chase him off. I like you happy." he sighed. "I just worry and someone should talk to him alright? Better me than Ben, or the boys."
"Yeah yeah yeah..." her coffee wasn't quite cool enough to drink, but careful sipping was alright. "Anybody scares him I'm going to put them through a wall." she grumbled.
"Well, yeah. You're good at that." Danny patted her shoulder and picked up his own coffee "But damn, told you so." he snickered.
"You are an ass Danny. You know that right?" she stuck her tongue out her partner, then jerked her head around as a door opened. "Well, it's been fun..."
"Yeah yeah yeah." he laughed, switching on the sirens as their suspect walked past.
