Hey! So i'm still an emotional wreck from the midseason finale, i can't believe they killed Daniel, i feel like these writers are killing all of my favourite ships. A few detail are different in this story like Margaux is not pregnant and they broke up after that thing with Louise, David never tried to poison Victoria and Emily isn't infertile.
Daniel was there in front of Emily ready to take the bullet but before Kate had the chance to shoot, Jack came bursting in and successfully distracted her from Emily and Daniel.
''Put your weapon down!'' Jack and everyone else in the room could tell that by the look in her eyes she was never going to do that so he shot her. As she fell to the ground he went to her side and kicked away the gun from her reach, Daniel released a sigh of relief, Emily sat up and slapped Daniel's arm.
''Ouch! What was that for?''
''What the hell were you thinking?!''
''I was trying to save your life.''
''I didn't ask you to do that. I told you to run, you could have gotten yourself killed!''
''Well i'm not, anyway what the hell happened here? Why was she trying to kill you?'' Jack came towards them.
''I called the chief and told him about...this. They'll be here in about 10 minutes. Are you okay?'' He said walking over to Emily who looked like she had been through hell.
''Yeah but i think my arm's broken.''
''So what am i supposed to tell them?''
''The truth. You came by to check up on me, you saw that she was about to kill us and you stopped her.''
''What about me?''
''You were walking near here, heard suspicious noises, saw that i was hurt, came to help me and then you know the rest.''
''But how are you going to explain why she wanted you dead?''
''Don't worry i've got it covered...ugh.'' She winched in pain, as the glass on the floor was piercing her skin. Jack realised it was better to call an ambulance straight away.
''I'll call the ambulance, Daniel get her off the floor.''
As much as Emily hated having to be helped like this, she knew that she was too weak to do it on her won, so she extended her hand to him but instead he picked her up in his arms causing her to gasp in shock. She was surprised by his strength, while he was carrying her to the couch David and Victoria barged in. Daniel, not expecting them kind of froze for a second, Victoria was mostly confused as to why her son was here and why he was holding an injured Emily in his arms. Before anyone could say anything police men came in followed by Jack, so Daniel quickly placed Emily on the couch, before the ambulance could take her away the police asked her a few questions about what happened, so she told them a version of the truth without the part that included her father's involvement with Malcolm Black, they seemed convinced so they didn't ask any other questions.
When the ambulance was taking Emily to the hospital David couldn't help but feel incredibly frustrated, he was her father and he to stand there acting like didn't just want to run over to his daughter, he felt guilty about what happened to her, since it was obviously involved with Black but what he couldn't understand was why he would go after her. He started going back to the beach house, hoping that Victoria was still with Daniel, he wasn't ready to deal with her yet. Honestly he didn't hate her so much for what she did in the past but more for the fact that she had been lying to him since he came back, Victoria had asked him for forgiveness but he wasn't even sure if he could look at her.
Emily had just checked out of the hospital, fortunately she just broke her arm, the doctor tried to convince her to stay the night at the hospital but she decided not to, she felt fine besides she needed to talk to Daniel. It's not like she couldn't have waited until the morning but she really needed answers. When Daniel opened the door she was the last person he was expecting to see.
''Emily, i thought you went to the hospital?''
''I did, but i'm fine now so i checked myself out.'' Daniel chuckled at her stubborness and let her in.
''Is it that hard for you to accept someone else's help?''
''I can take care of myself.''
''Care for a drink?''
''Why not.''
She accepted, after what happened earlier she really needed one. The scotch burnt her throat but she didn't care, she almost died tonight and so did Daniel for that matter, she needed to know why he risked his life for hers.
''Why didn't you run?'' Daniel stayed quiet so Emily continued.
''Why did you try to save me?'' Daniel took their glasses and refilled them.
''For once in my life i was tired of running away, of being a coward like my dad.'' Emily stared at him speachless for a second.
''I wasn't expecting that. How did you come to this conclusion?''
''You made me in a way.'' Emily looked at him confused.
''I made you?'' She refilled their glasses again, he gladly then took the glass and drank it.
''Ever since i found out the truth about you i've been looking at my life differently. Even though maybe in the wrong way, you were just trying to make my parents face up to what they did.''
Emily didn't know if it was just because they were both kind of drunk but she also decided to tell him the truth.
''Daniel, i'm sorry that i used you. I know you didn't deserve it but i need you to know that it wasn't all a lie, not with you.'' He could tell that she was being honest.
''I know.''
They both looked at eachother and the next thing you know he kissed her, it was a long and sweet kiss and when it was over her lips felt cold. He thought that she was going to walk away but instead she kissed him with a ferocity he had never witnessed before, without realizing it he had lifted her up on the counter and were now making out, her hands started to roam him body and taking off his shirt while her long slender legs wrapped around his waist. He carefully removed her shirt being minful of her arm and proceeded to kiss her collarbone and then her kneck, she didn't realise he had taken off her bra until she felt his hands on her bare breast and moaned in pleasure. By then they both knew what was about to happen so he lifted her up again and took her to the bedroom.
