As they arrived in Walford in a taxi, Stacey's voice started screeching so that the whole Square knew who was back. 'DANIELLLLEEEEEEEEEEEE' Danielle laughed, it was nice to be wanted, even if it was her best friend. Then it hit her, Danielle's going to have to explain to Stacey what's happened, and Stacey wont be happy. Ronnie saw this facial change from happy to concerned, and then became extremely worried for her daughter.

'Danielle, you alright? Are you sure you want to stay at the Slater's?' Ronnie asked, trying and failing not to look concerned for her daughter. Danielle quivered, but then said strongly, 'Yes Ronnie I'll be fine,' although her bones ached for her to be with her mother, she knew that she wasn't ready, and she wouldn't be for a long time, she thought she was ready, but the idea that she hadn't actually told her mother properly who she really was, frightened her.

Ronnie obviously really wanted to be with her child, and was trying really hard to not let her face drop from every rejection, but she understood why Danielle was doing this, she needed to learn rejection, the same way Danielle did.

The taxi stopped outside the Slater's, where Danielle got out of it, she barely whispered to Ronnie, 'Text me?' and then slammed the door shut. Danielle didn't see, but there was a tear from Ronnies eye.


'Oii Dan, why havn't you called? I wanted to know whether your ok? Ronnie knows Danielle, she knows,' Stacey rambled on as soon as Danielle entered the household. 'It's sooo amazing to see you Dan, you have no idea how much I've been worried, I wasn't allowed to go into the hospital, Ronnie wouldn't let me get in the ambulance with you, I guess she wanted to be there or somet,'

'It's ok Stace, seriously, don't worry about it,' Danielle replied as she entered the kitchen and sat down.

They were in silence for a few minutes, besides the kettle being switched on, it's unusual for the Slater household to be quiet.

'So, are you going to tell me what happened, what happened when you and Ronnie talked, did you talk?' Stacey asked, not sure whether Danielle would talk, but she really wanted to know whether her best friend was ok, she felt guilty for not being with Danielle at the hospital, so she wanted to be there for Dan during this presumably difficult time.

'Umm, Yes, If you want,' Danielle muffled, but realising she was ready to tell her best friend at least one thing she found out whilst at the hospital, 'Stace, I'm pregnant again,'

Stacey's face was completely white, in shock, she couldn't believe it, her best friend, pregnant, for the second time in 5 months.

'And, do you know the dad?' Stacey asked, determined to know more, Danielle almost laughed, the same thing that Ronnie said.

'Yes,' Danielle replied, praying that Stace wouldn't ask anymore questions. As soon as Danielle said yes though, her phone beeped, and she looked and had a text message

'Hey, just checking to see if your ok, sorry if I'm being a nuisance, maybe we could go out 2moz? Ronnie x'

Danielle smiled, she just knew Ronnie would want to text her, but she didn't feel in the mood to text back, she needed to tell Stace about the baby, and who the father is, before even thinking about a reply.

'Stace, please don't get mad, please. It's Jack, Jack's the dad,' Danielle cried, and sobbed into Stacey's arms. Stacey didn't really know what to say. In one respect, she was angry, not at Danielle, but at Jack, couldn't Jack see that Danielle was vunerable, plus he had already got Roxy pregnant out of the Mitchells, would it be Ronnie next. The other respect was complete understanding to Danielle, she wanted to get back at Ronnie, for everything she's done, and that is the best way regards how the Mitchells do it, they go the whole hog.

'Oh Dan, what am I going to do with you?' Stacey sighed, and laughed.

'What?' They broke up the hug suddenly.

'I've been acting like such a mother to you recently, you know,' Stacey somehow had hurt her friend, but she was trying to make it up to her.

'Please don't talk about mothers, I'm not in the mood,' Danielle said suddenly, going to get her coat.

'Oii, Dan, where you off?' Stacey asked, being completely concerned for her best friends interests.

'Ronnies, I need to tell her something,' And she slammed the front door shut, leaving Stacey astonished at her best friends sudden mood swing.

What do you think is going to happen guys? If you havn't see it, I have a new Ronnielle fic, called Ronnie Knows, Please check it out, not to mention review this one. Thanks. Do you like the Stacey I've made? Is it enough like the character in the actual episodes.

I'm thinking about bringing Glenda into this story, as last Thursday's episode of Ronnie and Glenda was AMAZING. Fabulous in fact.
