Nico knew Gaberial would probably try and shoot him and that's why he wore a vest. The bullet didn't even hit him. Nico couldn't believe Gaberial missed him. Tons of emotions and relief rushed through him when he saw her laying there lifeless. Agent Bennett confirmed that she was dead.

Nico headed to his car. He couldn't wait to get home to Dani. Just the thought of her name made him smile.

Just as Nico was getting in the car, Agent Benett called his name. He said, "I just wanted to let you know that my other group of guys arrested Matthew Donnelly at your house just a little bit ago. Apparently, him and Mrs. Pittman had been sleeping together and planning this for a few months. You and your wife ought to be able to enjoy your anniversary at ease and in peace now. Oh and one more thing, according to your guy Xeno, Dr. Santino gave Donnelly a busted nose and swollen shut eye." They both grinned, especially Nico.

"That's my girl,"Nico said and thanked Agent Bennett for everything and they shook hands. Nico was also offered a job working as an agent at the FBI. He told Bennett that he would think about it.

Nico got in his car, stopped by and picked him, Dani, and his parents up something to eat, and headed home. He wasn't prepared for what he saw when he pulled in the driveway. There was an ambulance in the driveway. He grabbed the food, ran inside, and found the medics tending to Dani.

"What's going on," Nico asked very concerned about his wife.

Nancy, Nico's mom, approached him and said, "there just checking Dani out and making sure everything is still okay with her. We had a little bit of a scare this afternoon.

"What happened," Nico asked as his mom led him into the kitchen.

"That Matthew Donnelly showed up and somehow Dani saw him outside. She told Xeno that it was okay to let him in and asked your daddy and me to give them a minute, so we did. Next thing we know, he hits Dani and pushes her down. By the time Xeno gets in the room, Dani has Matt on the floor punching him," Nancy tells him.

Nico just puts his hands up to his forehead. This is never ending, he thought to himself. Nico's father walked in the room about that time. He could tell everything that has happened over the past couple of days has taken a toil on him.

"Son, you okay?" Nico's dad asked him as he it his hand up on his son's shoulder.

Nico looked at his Dad and said, "Gaberial is dead. She tried to shoot me, but she missed. The FBI put two bullets in her. I felt so much relief, but then when I come back here, all I feel is guilt. This is all my fault. I mean it's hard to see my wife like this, especially knowing I'm the cause of this whole situation. Why did she let Donnelly in here?" Nico was pretty pissed.

"Son, calm down. You need to quit blaming yourself for this. I know Dani doesn't blame you. You need to go check on her, talk to her, reassure her everything is okay. She is pretty shaken up all over again. She needs to know about Gaberial. Your mom and I are going to go. We will see y'all for presents and dinner tomorrow night. Love you." Nico said goodbye to his parents.

Even though Dani's back was to him, she could still feel his presence. It's something she had picked up on over the last year. She was laying there watching TV.

Before Nico even walked into the room, Dani asked with tears running down her face, "so how mad are you?"

Nico pulled Dani into his lap. "Babe, I just want to know what you w

ere thinking letting Matt in here. You knew he was a suspect in all this." "I don't know what I was thinking and I am so sorry," Dani was crying now.

Nico looked her over and saw the bruising on her face and neck from where Matt hit her. It pissed him off. "Gaberial is dead. She tried to shoot me, but she missed and the FBI put two bullets in her chest," Nico said quietly.

Dani hit Nico in the chest, "how could you do that? What if she would have shot you? How could you be so selfish," she cried out. Then she added, "I need you. We need you."

Nico just looked at her funny and said, "we?"

"Yes, we," Dani said as she put Nico's hand on her belly. "I'm pregnant. We are going to have a baby."
