A few minutes after Nico's comment that they were taking their time to get to the conference room, Matt, and a few other people walked in. The main topic was about TK being ready to play in his regular starting spot. They all agreed that he was physically ready; what they wanted to know was if he was mentally ready. That is why Dani was there. Though she had missed a lot of their sessions, due to the FBI and problems of her own she had to deal with. But if there was one thing she knew it was that Terrence had grown up. So she told them that he was ready to but she still wanted him to go to his sessions. After they all agreed, they started to discuss other players like Rex and Toes. They did not know what to do with Toes, he was losing his spot to the one person that he despises the most which was TK. Dani agreed to take on Toes if it was necessary.

At the end of the meeting, Coach said in his deep voice, "Alright people, we have a plan for the week. Good luck."

By the time coach was done speaking, the room cleared out. Dani, Nico and Coach left.

"Dani its good to have you back." Coach said to try and hopefully get that obvious look of misery off her face.

"Thank you coach." Dani had said with a smile. Having accomplished what he wanted, he left.

Matt was outside the door when he glanced in and noticed that Nico was talking to Dani. Within a few moments, both of his hands where on her shoulders and he was looking into her eyes. Nico was saying something to her, but Matt could not make out any of the words. He turned around and started to walk away. He wondered how she got Nico to stay. It was a huge offer and Matt knew if he had gotten that type offer he would not refuse it. He wanted to know what happened in the last two months with Dani. He definitely wanted to know if Nico was involved with her. Matt knew that Nico had done more for her than what he would have had done for others in fact he had been doing this basically since the first time the met. But what Matt thought was strange was that Nico was not Dani's type. Since that day two months ago Matt just wanted to know how Dani was. But she had avoided him ever since; honestly he probably would have done the same if their roles were reversed.

Dani looked at her phone and said "I have to head home for TK's session. I'll meet up with you later."

"Sounds good." Nico said with a smile on his face and he stood there with his phone in hand just watching her leave.


By the time the FBI agents finished talking to Nico and Dani, Dani was exhausted and decided to sit on the nearest couch in the police station and waited for Nico to come out. She could not believe how much they had asked about Marshall Pittman. She had heard that name more in one day then she needed to in one life time. All she wanted to do was go home, sleep, and never hear that name again.

Nico had walked out of the little FBI office. He had his hands in his pockets when he stepped through the door and he realized that Dani was asleep on the couch right outside. He took a few steps back and moved toward her. Nico had a grin on his face like he was going to laugh. Nico got near her and he said "Dani". Once he had realized she was still asleep, he lightly grabbed her arm and gently shook her.

"Doctor….Doctor… Doctor Santino….Dani." Nico said until she used her other arm to push Nico's hand away.

" Sleep. I want to sleep." Dani said in a soft voice that was clearly tired.

"Well ok, Dani. If you want to sleep in a police station I'll leave."

Dani's eyes widened she became completely aware that she was in fact in a police station, "Right" she said with little hesitation, " Maybe I shouldn't fall asleep here."

Nico looked down at her with a "you think" look. "Dani you are clearly in no shape to drive yourself home."

"Probably not. What time is it?" she said in a drowsy voice.

Nico took out his phone and looked down at it, " It's 3:15 in the morning," then he said softer, " that's late even for me."

"Nico, I just want to go home and sleep." She said. The past sixish hours had been so frustrating for her and she was exhausted.

"Alright, I can't get ahold of any one. Dani give me your keys," Nico said without care.

"Nico, I might be half asleep, but there's a problem with that. How are you going to get back to where ever you go?"

"I'll figure it out later, after I get you home."

"Ok." With slight hesitation Dani took her keys out of her purse and gave them to Nico.

By the time they got into Dani's car, Nico wanted to ask her what was going on. It was obvious that something went wrong after the game.

Within a few minutes Dani fell asleep in the car. That made Nico wonder about what happened even more. The only thing that he could have thought of was Matt. When they had got to the Santino residence he stopped the car softly and Dani woke up.

Oh sure she wakes up to a soft stop. At this point Nico was exhausted too and he wanted to fall asleep himself. He turned off the car and walked around the car to open the passenger side door for Dani. "Dani come on. Your home."

"Mmm, I don't know. This seat is comfortable." She tiredly said.

Nico started to smile because this amused him, " Come on Dani, I will walk you in," his head gestured towards the front door.

Dani smiled and slowly got out of her car. She said, "Sure." and they both started to walk to the door at that point Dani commented, " This has probably been the best part of my day."

Nico turned his head towards her and started to smirk. In a sarcastic tone he said, "You know that you're only four hours into your day."

"Nico, you know what I mean" in an annoyed voice, as she lightly hit him in the arm. There were a few moments of silence when they got up the steps. Then Dani said "Nico, you might have a reason to stay now"

Nico put on a curious face and tilted his head, "Really?" Nico said while leaning against the door frame. As much as Nico wanted to hear this from her, he knew that it was not good timing. He knew what ever made her say this had only happened a few hours before. "Dani, let's talk about this when your fully awake"

"Always the gentleman. Hey Nico, if you want to you can spend the rest of the morning here"

Nico seemed surprised about the offer and said. "Dani I would love to, but…"

"But you can't get ahold of anyone. You don't have your car unless you live down the street, which I pretty sure you don't, you can sleep on the couch in the living room."

Nico scratched his head not knowing what to say except for "Well, it's better than the one in the your office I guess." Dani started to head up the stairs when Nico stopped her, "Hey Dani?"

Dani turned around and said "Yeah Nico?"

He looked up at her and said "Thank you." Dani continued up the stairs, but she was trying not to break out into a smile.

Nico went to the living room, walked and looked around. He saw the couch and laid down stretching out.
