Well he hasn't hit me yet and he's getting dressed.  Probably expects breakfast.  Too bad there's only coffee.

"Gene?"

"Mornin', sleepy head," he says, buttoning his shirt.

"Coffee?"

"Gotta get changed.  Someone might notice if I turn up in yesterday's suit."

"That's the trouble with working with detectives."

"I'll get some grub," he says, grabs his coat and leaves.

I shower and dress, expecting fish and chips.

He's back and gives me a quick kiss.  He's showered, shaved, changed and carrying our breakfast - fresh, crusty bread rolls, bacon and eggs, which he proceeds to cook.

Best breakfast I never cooked.
