...
They all walked over to their private little booth in the corner and started talking about old times. A waiter walked over to take their orders, as Mac had asked him to.
"Beer." Danny, Adam, Hawks, Flack and Mac said together.
"Martini." ordered Stella. They all looked at her. "What? It's a special occasion."
"I'll just have a water." Lindsay said last.
"Linds, we're to celebrate your engagement. Have something with lots of alcohol in it." Flack said, unknowingly. Lindsay just shook her head and looked from Stella to Danny. Stella was smiling and Danny smiled and nodded down at her. The waiter nodded and walked away to get them their drinks. They all resumed talking.
"Do you think we should tell them?" Lindsay whispered to Danny.
"Their trained investigator's. I think they would notice." Danny replied, using the same thing Stella had said to Lindsay a few weeks back. It didn't dawn on Lindsay.
"Your right." she said kissing him.
"Come on guys. Get a room will you!? This is something your boss shouldn't see" Mac shouted over to them both.
"It'll happen to you one day." Danny said, wondering if Mac would get what he was saying.
"What?" Mac said, slightly confused.
"Love." Danny answered looking from Mac to Stella. They both went red which didn't go unnoticed by Lindsay. f.or such a smart guy, he really can be quite clueless at times. She thought to herself
"I need to go to the toilet. Stella come with me." Lindsay said jumping up and grabbing Stella before she could protest.
"Linds, everything ok?" Stella asking in a slightly worried voice.
"Why did you not tell me you liked a certain Detective Mac Taylor?"
Stella didn't have to say anything, her face said it all.
"Oh my! You so do. This is going to be so fun. Your going to have what me and Danny have. No matter what and don't try to stop me." Lindsay said cutting Stella off before she even started. "I saw how you and Mac reacted out there. He likes you, you like him." Lindsay couldn't help the smile that had now planted itself on her face. Neither could Stella.
"Fine. I'll tell Mac when you tell Danny." Lindsay's smile grew.
"Done. I don't' know how but he knows already. So when you going to tell him?"
The smile that had been on Stella's face faded instantly upon hearing Lindsay's words. Stella had thought that Lindsay wouldn't be able to get the courage up to tell him for another while and then hoped that Lindsay had forgotten about this but clearly she wasn't getting out of it.
"I'll do it tonight." As soon as the words were out of her mouth she regretted them. "That way I can blame the drink if he doesn't feel the same." she added quickly. Lindsay's face looked like it was going to crack with that smile that had appeared on her face.
"Ok but leave it until the others go home. So it'll be me, you, Danny and Mac. And trust me he will feel the same. You didn't see the look on his face when Dan said about love happening to him. He looked straight at you then went bright red. I really had to hold my laughter in at that point but then I saw your face. It just clicked." After a further few minutes the woman appeared out of the bathroom. Both Lindsay and Stella laughing at something. Poor Mac hadn't a clue that his life was going to change that night.
It came to about 3:30am and Flack, Hawks and Adam decided to go home. Lindsay had persuaded Mac to stay another half hour. He really didn't want to. He had an earlier, than what he would have liked, shift the next morning but one look at Stella and he decided to stay. He didn't know what it was but he just felt like he couldn't say no to her. She was like his weakness.
Stella had been drinking a lot that night but was still in her right mind. Lindsay knew that she was nervous. Danny had even noticed how Stella was getting more and more nervous as the night went by. Lindsay, who hadn't moved since she left to go to the toilet with Stella, was growing more and more excited. A slow song, Danny didn't even know the name of, and was sure Lindsay didn't either, came on and Lindsay grabbed Danny's hand. With a wink to Stella, Lindsay and Danny walked onto the dance floor. Lindsay stood where she would have a perfect view of Stella and Mac. Danny wrapped his arms around her waist and swayed, gently, with the music. Lindsay lay her head on Danny's shoulder and watched Stella talking to Mac. "She better do it." she said low enough so that Danny wouldn't hear her but he did.
"Do what, Montana? What have you got up your sexy little sleeve?" Danny asked her. Lindsay looked up at him with her devilish smile.
"Oh nothing." Then it happened.
