So I've decided to write a few drabbles. These will take up a chapter each, and will not be too long in length. Hope you enjoy them :)

Drabble One: Amuse Me


"You would not believe the day I've had, Fred. It's been awful."

"That sucks, sweetie. That really sucks."

"Just don't expect me to be all cheery when I get home, okay?"

"Of course not, Daph. But try and keep your chin up, huh?"

Their earlier conversation echoed throughout her mind as she now stared at the small note lying on the kitchen countertop. Written in Fred's familiar handwriting, it read...

I KNOW YOU'RE NOT IN THE BEST OF MOODS. BUT LET'S PLAY HIDE AND SEEK. FIND ME.

Daphne rolled her eyes, placing her handbag on the nearby table and slipping off her work blazer.

"Fred!" she called out, beginning to walk further into the house as she did so. She really was not in the mood for childish games.

No answer. Daphne grumbled, grasping the banister and jogging up the stairs with ease.

"I'm serious, Fred!" she exclaimed loudly, knowing that he could hear her, "This is stupid!"

Opening the door to their bedroom, she scanned the space with her eyes before stepping inside. Ruffling the covers of their double bed, she was surprised to find another note lying on her pillow. Picking it up, she read the words he had written...

I HATE TO BREAK IT TO YOU, BUT I'M NOT WAITING FOR YOU IN BED ;) TRY HARDER

"Cheeky..." Daphne muttered, unable to stop herself from smiling slightly. Despite the day she'd had, she found it almost flattering that he was going to this extent to do something just for her.

Suddenly, she heard a creek. Under normal circumstances, she would've completely ignored such a noise. But these were no normal circumstances. Exiting the room quickly, she power walked down the corridor, reaching the spare bedroom. Grasping the handle, she gently pushed the door open and peeked inside.

The room seemed relatively quiet, as it always was. But she had definitely heard the creek coming from this part of the house. Stepping into the room, she slowly paced around, her eyes trying to spot anything peculiar. She now had a noticeable grin painted across her features, although she would hate to admit it.

Spying another yellow post-it-note resting on the bedside table, she skipped over, bending slightly to read it...

WELL DONE, YOU WIN :)

She paused, her brows knitted in confusion.

"...I win? What?"

Suddenly, the closet behind her burst open, two strong arms grasping her by the waist and dragging her inside. Daphne cried out in surprise as the doors were pulled shut again, making everything pitch black.

"What the hell are you..." she began, only to be silenced as he pressed his lips to hers, her back flat against the inner walls of the closet. Daphne smirked against his lips, wrapping her arms around his broad shoulders as she deepened the kiss.

He kissed her for a moment longer before pulling away, touching his nose to hers in the darkness.

"You found me," he whispered, and she chuckled.

"I think you found me, Freddie. Did you forget the whole 'dragging me into a closet' part?" she replied, and he laughed softly, turning the handle of the door and opening it, pulling her out into the room with him.

"It was more fun that way," he explained, and she rolled her eyes playfully.

"Whatever you say, Fred..."

He was smiling happily, obviously pleased with himself. Stepping towards her, he gently cupped her cheek with his hand, taking a moment to look her in the eyes.

"But it did cheer you up, right?" he asked, and she nodded with a smile. Perhaps the best medicine in life really was hide and seek with Fred.
