Dani ran into TK first. "Hey doc, I really need to talk to you. It's pretty important. Can we do our session now," TK asked. He sounded pretty upset so Dani said, "okay Terrence, talk to me." Terrence started by telling Dani about the phone call he got from Matt. "Doc, he told me he got a job in Dallas and wants me to come play there. He said that what happened between you and him was taking out of context of what actually happened, and that Nico had no right to fire him because Nico didn't know the whole story." Terrence seemed really upset about this. It upset Dani that Matt was trying to start something else, but more importantly it bothered her that Matt was still trying to get into TK'S head. Dani took a moment to gather her thoughts. She finally said, "what did you say back to him?" "I told him where he could go and that the Hawks was where I wanted to be. Doc, I just can't stand to see him treat you like that and then try to lie about it. We need to tell Nico, Terrence said." Dani agreed and she hugged Terrence and thanked him for caring so much about her. She loved how far he had come. They went to find Nico and they found him in coach's office. Dani knocked on the door and they both motioned for her and TK to come in.. Dani said, "good, glad you are both here. Terrence has something he needs to tell you both." Terrence told them about Matt calling and explained everything that was said. Nico and coach, both were pissed and coach said, "Dani, I wished you would have pressed charges." Nico said in Dani's defense, "I think that would have only made things worse." They agreed. TK promised to let Nico be the first to know if Matt called again, but Nico was also going to make a call to Dallas and see what he could do to get them make Matt leave TK ALONE. Once they had that situation all settled, Nico and Dani walked out. Nico took Dani's hand and led her to his office. Once inside the office Dani pulled Nico into a hug and then kissed him. She said, "I have missed you so much today. Thank you for that amazing breakfast, the rose, and that sweet note. I have something for you, to show you how special you are to me and to thank you for everything you have done for me lately. Dani handed him the bag and Nico pulled out the name plate first and then the watch! He read the engraving on the watch and with watery eyes he said, "sweet heart you are so wonderful. I can't even thank you enough for this and for you. I also have something for you as well." Nico pulled out a long box from behind his desk. "For the love of my life, as we take on this new amazing journey," Nico said emotionally. Dani opened the box and pulled out the most beautiful dress she had ever seen in her life. It was black with one strap, very sparkly, and dipped low in the back. "Nico, this is gorgeous! How did you know my exact size?!" Nico grinned and said, "Lindsey told me. Will you wear it tonight to dinner, PLEASE?" Dani was stunned, "yes I will and I can't wait. You mean you asked Lindsey my dress size? Wow, she really does talk to you and like you." All Nico could do was pull her in for a kiss. She had know ideal how much he had been talking back and forth with the kids. They already knew about the proposal and Dani was going to be so surprised when she finds out how excited and okay they were with all of this. Dani went home to get ready and Nico had a few things to do to get ready for his proposal. He wanted it to be perfect. At 6:00 on the dot, Dani heard a knock on the door. When she opened the door, she was caught off guard. Xeno was at her door. "Where is Nico?" All Xeno said was, "are you ready to go?" "Yes" was all Dani said. They arrived to a just a plain building. Dani didn't ask anything, but just waited and when the door was opened for her, Xeno said, "go through that door right there." As Dani walked up to the door, she took a deep breath and opened the door. Nico was there waiting for her. "Hello my beautiful lady! You look absolutely stunning in that dress." "Hey handsome! You look so good in your black suit and tie," Dani exclaimed! This was the first time Dani had seen Nico in a tie! There was an arrow done in rose petals pointing to another room. "Shall we?!" Nico grabbed her hand and they walked into a huge room. There were rose petals everywhere on the floor. There was a dinner set up with candles and roses on the table. Jazz music was playing in the background and the words I love you was spelled out with rose petals. Dani was about to cry and managed to say, "Nico when you said we were going to eat at your favorite restaurant, I had no idea this was your plan. This is so sweet and I am speechless." Nico grinned and said, "WOW, you mean I left my therapist speechless." Dani laughed. He grabbed her hand and pulled her over to the roses that spelled out the "I love you." Nico grabbed a dozen of the red and white roses that he had put aside to hand for her. He took a deep breath, turned and faced her, and said, "Dani, you complete me. I'm giving you this bouquet of love to same that I love you so much. I hope I will always say it often enough. I want you to know it's true. I want to remind you that you are everything and my love is true. I will be your strength when you have none. I will be your better judgement when you cant think straight. I will pick you up when you fall. I will smile for you when you can't. Dani, I will be your better half. I want to spend forever with you. You are my soulmate and the love of my life. Danielle Satino, will you marry me?"
