Moving on for all the wrong reasons.
Don sat in the dark for a long time when he reached his apartment. He thought about all the things Danny had said. Was it possible Stella had feelings for him, he doubted it and Danny hadn't been sure he couldn't break Jenns heart on a possibly maybe. He needed to move on and get over this Stella obsession, maybe it wasn't even love maybe he just thought it was.
As for Jenn he cared deeply for her, it wasn't love right now but he was sure if he married her he would grow to love her and she was a great girl they enjoyed each others company and he new she loved him so why not marry her. His phone rang while he contemplated his next move.
It was Angell telling him she had to work late on a case so she would just head home after, but where they still on for dinner on Thursday which was valentines day, he had confirmed they were and said he'd pick her up around 7pm. When he'd hung up the phone he'd decided that tomorrow he'd go pick a ring an he'd propose to Jenn on valentines night that was sure to put Stella out of his head once and for all if he was committed to someone else.
Danny arrived home to find Lindsay flaked out on the couch but she woke as he tried to quietly move around. She looked up at him "Hey, your back early I thought you and Don would have been out most of the night". He sat down beside her on the couch.
"We would have been but I told hima few home truths and I think I frightened him off and he headed home saying he had to meet Angell" Danny sighed. Lindsay turned to face him "What did you do? I told you not to mess around in his love life, I know you don't agree with him and Angell but he'll realise it on his own eventually" Lindsay said.
"Thats just it Linds I don't think he will, he told me tonight he's thinking about proposing to Angell, and I can't watch my best friend make the biggest mistake of his life without trying to do something about it" Danny wrapped his arm around Lindsay and looked down at her, he wanted Don to have this what he and Lindsay had and he knew he just didn't have this with Angell.
Lindsay looked shocked "Propose, He's going to propose?" Danny nodded. "I didn't think they were that serious" Lindsay continued. "I mean I figured it was just a casual thing that would end eventually when he realised he was in love with Stella."
"I think we got it wrong Lindsay I don't think he has yet to realise he's in love with Stella I think he already knows, but I think he's afraid to do anything about it because he doesn't think Stella feels the same way, so he started dating Angell and he's just let it go too far. I'm not sure what we can do though." Danny said exasperated that he couldn't think of a way to help his friend.
Lindsay sighed she'd always though Don just needed to realise his feelings for Stella now it looked like he was hiding them. "Danny maybe it's time I talked to Stella I know we agreed I wouldn't involve myself but if we knew for sure how Stella felt then maybe we'd know how to fix this mess Don's about to make before he makes it" Danny looked at her, "Maybe your right but don't come straight out with it because I did that with Don and he freaked out"
Lindsay smiled at him "Sweetheart I'm much more tactful than you'll ever be, Stella won't even realise what information she's giving me"
