This scene comes between "Meet the Family" and "Coming Out".
When Oliver and Liv got off the plane, they grabbed their bags and looked around for the boys, who were supposed to be picking them up. Biting her lip, she tried to hide her pain from Oliver. Her shoulder was killing her, and sitting on a plane all day hadn't been a fun trip for her.
"Oh, they're over there." Oliver said and grabbed their bags.
When the boys saw them coming, they rushed forward to help. As Willie and Gabe grabbed her bags, Danny gently put his arm around Liv. "How are you feeling?"
She tried to smile at him. "I'm okay. Thanks for picking us up."
Eyeing her, he nodded. "It's no problem. Have you talked to your dads?"
She nodded. "Yeah, they're stuck in New York?"
Willie nodded. "Yeah, they were enjoying the holiday but then the weather got bad. They should be back tomorrow, though, if everything goes well."
She nodded. "So I take it I am staying with you guys?"
Gabe chuckled. "Actually, no. Lux has claimed you for the night."
Danny nodded. "She wants to know all about L.A. and whatever else she had in mind."
Liv smiled, though it didn't reach her eyes. "That sounds like fun."
…
After they had dropped off Willie, Oliver, and Gabe, Danny turned to her from the driver's seat. "SO I have a confession to make."
She looked at him, confused. "About what?"
"Lux isn't home tonight. She's staying with Cassie to work on the songs for Nationals." He said as they turned towards his house.
"But I thought…"
He shook his head. "I figured that you would want a night away from Oliver." He sighed. "I know you were lying at the airport. You're in pain and you don't want to show him that."
This time when she smiled, Danny could see that it was completely genuine. "You are the best."
He chuckled. "I know I am."
When they got to his house five minutes later, he carefully helped her out of the car and walked her to the house. The minute the door was open, Puck was walking toward them and Danny left to grab her bags.
"God…are you okay? He asked her as he helped her to the couch.
She nodded and winced as he helped her take her jacket off. "It hurts, Uncle Puck."
"I bet." He whistled when he saw the bruises on her arm and shoulder. "Damn, that car got you good."
"Yes it did." She winced again as she settled on the couch and Puck sat next to her.
"Quinn is at the store getting stuff for dinner. She's making one of your favorites." He smirked when her eyes lit up. "Lasagna."
She smiled. "Yes! I love lasagna."
Puck chuckled and nodded. "We know."
…
After dinner that night, Danny watched a movie on the couch with Liv, making sure she was okay. Usually she would have thought it was annoying, but she was glad that he pretended to keep his distance.
When Quinn and Puck came to check on them before they went to bed, they smiled. Liv had fallen asleep propped up against Danny, her was sitting behind her on the couch. He was sound asleep as well, and the remote had slipped from his hand to the floor.
"I missed this." Quinn told her husband honestly. "I was starting to think they would be fighting forever."
"Same here, man." He sighed. "Thank God that's over."
…
"Oh my God!" Kurt shouted the minute he jumped out of the car the next day. "How are you feeling?"
She chuckled and winced when he hugged her. "I'm fine, Dad. It just hurts."
"Well don't you worry." Blaine said when they went back into the house. "All you have to do tonight is relax and let us take care of you."
She smiled. "I missed you guys."
"We're just glad that you're okay." They told her seriously and she smiled, thinking about the special treatment she would be getting that night.
