Chapter Eleven: 6th December 1941

Danny was sat in the barracks mulling over a picture of him and Bonnie on their wedding day, she looked so beautiful that day, hell she looked beautiful every day. He was in awe that the town's drunk son could ever get a woman of Bonnie's magnitude to fall in love with him, he was truly blessed.

"So Danny, how's the house coming along?" Anthony asked looking up from the poker game he shared with Gooz.

A smile filled Danny's face as he thought about the future memories to be held in that house, it even looked like they would be in rather soon and therefore be able to spend their first Christmas together "It's going good."

Anthony nodded before going back to his game "Woohoo! Full house boys! Beat that!" he cheered as Gooz groaned throwing his cards in the middle.

"What did you have Gooz?" Danny laughed.

"A pair of twos" he mumbled glumly.

Danny raised an eyebrow "You went all in on a pair of two's?" he asked scratching his head.

Gooz shifted in his seat shrugging "I was trying to bluff."

"Never try to con a poker master" Anthony said smugly.

Billy clipped him around the ear "Poker master? More like poker cheat" he laughed falling back on his bed.

"You cheated!" Gooz protested.

"I don't cheat!" Anthony replied back "Now give me my money."

Gooz shook his head "Not a chance in hel-"

"-Danny"

Upon hearing the voice all the men in the room turned to see Bonnie stood in the door way, sadness and fury written across her beautiful face "Babe what's wron-"

"Is it true?" she asked cutting Danny off walking further into the room.

"Is what true?"

"Don't play dumb with me asshole. Now tell me is it true!" she said angrily through gritted teeth, Danny was taken back a little by her anger as was the rest of their friends.

Danny reached out to her but she took a step back "I don't know what you're talking about" he said his eyes pleading with her.

"Evelyn" she whispered as a tear fell down her cheek "You and Evelyn" she said more firmly.

Danny recoiled like he had been punched in the stomach "Bonnie listen to me I can explain" he pleaded.

Bonnie quickly wiped away her tears but to no avail as they were soon replaced with fresh ones "Is it true?" she asked nervously yet firmly, but in all honesty she already knew the answer.

Danny lowered his head in shame and Bonnie automatically knew that it was true, she inhaled deeply trying to calm herself before turning to walk away "Bonnie wait" Danny said grabbing her arm.

"Get off me" she hissed yanking her arm away from his grip.

"Please just stop, let me explain Bon."

Bonnie shook her head "Nothing you can say will ever make this better. We're through Danny" she stated before exiting the room, leaving Danny there in shock as was everyone else.

"Wow" Anthony muttered.

"I'll go see if she is all right" Billy said following the same exit route Bonnie had gone through just moments before.

PHPHPH

Billy rushed out of the barrack pulling on a shirt over his white vest looking around for Bonnie; he spotted her about to get into a car "Bonnie!" he called running over.

Bonnie quickly wiped her eyes expecting to see Danny running towards her and there was no way on this earth she was going to let him see her cry over this "What?" she said furiously, turning quickly on her heel.

"It's only me Bon" Billy said holding his hands up defensively he was relieved to see her face soften. She gave him a shaky smile placing her hands on her stomach "come on" he said taking the keys from her hand.

"Where are we going?"

"To cheer you up now get in" he said with a small smile. Bonnie thought for a moment before nodding offering him a small smile.

They drove for about half an hour before Billy pulled up opposite a secluded beach, he cut the engine and turned to see Bonnie rubbing her stomach tears falling down her cheeks "Hey don't cry over that asshole" he spoke softly placing a hand on her shoulder.

Bonnie bit her lip letting out a sigh "the man I love cheated on me with one of my best friends, how can I not cry?" she asked and Billy winced slightly "I'm sorry. I –I don't know what to do anymore" she started to cry again and Billy pulled her into his arms.

"He is an asshole" he said seriously, placing a kiss on her head, smiling when he heard a small laugh escape her lips.

"What am I going to do Billy? She asked sitting up to wipe the tears away from her eyes "I'm eight months pregnant with his child."

Billy shifted slightly in his seat "Bon I can't tell you what to do but if it was me I wouldn't stand for it. You're a beautiful, sweet, caring woman and for Danny to do that to you of all people really makes me angry."

Bonnie smiled and placed a hand on his cheek "Thank you Billy" she smiled.

"No problem, hey I could kick his ass if you wanted?" he asked.

Bonnie laughed loudly for the first time that day "Isn't that a bit high school?"

Billy shrugged smiling "Usually. But he defiantly deserves it" he explained making her laugh again noticing the sun was starting to set he let out a low sigh "do you want me to take you home?" he asked and Bonnie shook her head.

"I don't think I can face Ev-her right now" she sighed "will you drive me to the hula lodge?" she asked folding her hands across her lap.

PHPHPH

Danny sat with his head in his hands; his friends had left over an hour ago to go to the hula lodge so he could have some time alone. He couldn't believe Bonnie had found out about what had happened with Evelyn, he kept on thinking who could have told her, he thought about Billy, but he knew he wouldn't hurt Bonnie's happiness just to spite him, so the only person left was Evelyn, she must have told her but she was one of Bonnie's best friends surly she wouldn't do that to her best friend? It was all just too confusing.

"First Lieutenant Walker" A voice stated from behind him startling him a little.

He quickly stood up "that's me" he nodded.

"Telegraph for you" the young man said handing him the small yellow envelope before turning to leave.

"Thanks" Danny said after him sitting back down on his bed slowly opening the telegraph, unfolding it he began to read I'm alive... were the only words he read and he immediately knew who it was from, Rafe. He was alive, his best friend was alive and he couldn't believe it grabbing the keys to his car he ran out of the barracks.

By the time Danny arrived at the hospital night had fallen upon the Hawaiian Islands, he quickly parked the car and cut off the engine before running towards the ward where Evelyn usually worked as he knew that's where Rafe's first stop would be. As he rounded the corner he came to a sudden stop seeing Rafe sat with his back to him talking to "Rafe" he sighed yet it was loud enough for both him and Evelyn to hear.

The expression on Rafe face was one of hurt and shock before he stood up and began to back away from them both and Danny concluded that Evelyn must have said something "Stay away" Rafe demanded as Danny inched towards him before he walked away. He looked towards Evelyn and saw her crying, why had she told Rafe as well? Was she seriously out to ruin his life? That sounded stupid Evelyn didn't have a malice bone in her body but still, why was she telling people about their affair, why was she hurting the people she loved?

PHPHPH

Billy helped Bonnie out the car once they arrived at the Hula Lodge and immediately heard the cheers and laughter coming from the bar "wonder what's got them all excited?" he asked.

Bonnie smiled, quickly applying a fresh layer of lipstick "Look at me I'm eight months pregnant and I'm checking my make up to go into a bar" she laughed weekly.

Billy grabbed her hand "Look you need to get your mind off things, stress isn't good for the baby" he spoke as she raised her eyebrow.

"You sound like Betty" she laughed "Come on lets go" she smiled walking towards the bar silently cursing herself for wearing heels on the sand.

The couple walked up the steps and entered the bar freezing upon seeing a man who they both presumed dead sitting at the bar "Rafe!" Billy said happily rushing over to his friend.

"Billy!" Rafe replied sharing his happiness "It's good to see you."

"You too Red, I can't believe your here, I-I mean you were dead" he said bewildered.

Anthony patted him on the back "No one can kill this ace" he rose his glass to Rafe before turning his head to Bonnie "hey there gorgeous" he winked.

Bonnie rolled her eyes and offered Rafe a small smile "looks like Danny's been busy" he spoke and Bonnie placed her hands on her stomach biting her lip nervously not knowing if he knew about Evelyn and Danny.

"In more ways than one" she said cautiously.

A small smirk appeared on his face "You know?" he asked and she nodded trying her best not to let her emotions get the better of her "I'm sorry" he said pouring himself another glass of Jack Daniels.

"Why are you apologising?" she asked confused "Rafe it aint your fault" she said grabbing his hand causing him to smile a little "Now which of you lovely gentlemen are gonna buy me a drink" she said offering them her beautiful smile.

Rafe chuckled loudly "what ya having?" He asked.

"Just a coke" she said taking a seat next to him at the bar "I can't believe your actually here" she admitted with a small laugh.

Rafe looked at her and smiled "You and me both darlin" he spoke making her laugh again "here ya go."

Bonnie took the bottle of coke "thank you" she said before taking a sip, out of the corner of her eye she saw Rafe looking at her "Mr McCawley, is there a reason you are staring at me?" she said with a giggle.

He winked at her "I'm just trying to figure out what on earth Danny was thinking when he cheated on you, your pregnant with his child damn it" he said getting a little anger out.

"I'm also his wife" she whispered as a tear fell down her cheek.

"What?" he muttered "You got married?" he asked a little shocked.

Bonnie nodded "maybe I should go" she sighed but Rafe placed a hand on hers "Stay" he said gently "okay" she replied sitting back down.

An hour passed and Bonnie swore she had never laughed so much in her entire laugh life, watching the men drink themselves silly was rather amusing, she just sat down from a dance with Gooz "Bon give us a song!" Billy called from his seat.

"Not a chance sweetheart" she laughed sipping her coke.

"Aw come on!" Rafe encouraged "For my returning from the dead present" he chuckled as the rest of the men cheered.

Bonnie shook her head "Don't guilt trip me McCawley!" she jokingly scolded.

"Do it! Do it!" Anthony cheered loudly.

"All right!" she shouted quietening everyone, taking a deep breath she calmed her nerves as it seemed like the whole of the hula lodge had stopped to hear her sing "You so owe me" she groaned to Rafe who simply laughed.

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day

Bonnie got of her stool and walked over to Bill placing her hands on his shoulders before continuing her singing...

Keep smiling through
Just like you always do
'Till the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds far away

She laughed as Rafe pulled her towards him for a dance as she sung...

So, will you please say hello
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day
Keep smiling through
Just like you always do
'Till the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds far away

So, will you please say hello
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day...

As she finished the song the entire bar cheered for her and she smiled proudly rubbing her stomach but her smile faltered when she saw her husband stood there "What are you doing here?" she asked.

Danny was nervous he hadn't expected to see Bonnie here "You shouldn't be here it isn't good for the bab-" he didn't get to finish his sentence as she slapped him across the face.

"You have no right to tell me what to do" She shouted before walking over to Rafe grabbing her bag "I'm glad you're safe" she smiled placing a kiss on his cheek, before walking out of the bar.

"Bonnie wait" Danny said.

"Not for you" she spat walking over to her car.

Red shifted uncomfortably next to Red "I think you two need to spend

PHPHPH

Bonnie pulled up in front of the nurses house, cutting the engine she stared at the house her breath became shaky as she saw someone rise from the porch swing "please god don't let it be Evelyn" she whispered into the darkness. A sigh of relief escaped her lips when she saw it was Betty, she walked over to the car opening the passenger door and sat next to her not saying a word and for this Bonnie was thankful.

They sat in silence for around five minutes before Bonnie let out a suppressed cry "I-I don't know what to do anymore" she spoke in tones no louder than a whisper, Betty still didn't say anything just pulled her into a hug and let her friend cry on her shoulder, they were like that for what seemed like forever until Bonnie sat up and wiped her eyes "How long have you been sat out there?" she asked.

Betty let out a little laugh "About 3 hours, you know it's a good job it's still warm in December" she smiled rubbing her friends hand in comfort.

Bonnie let out a small laugh as well "I can't believe I have to work in six hours" she sighed running a hand through her hair.

"I'll cover for you if you want?" Betty offered.

Bonnie considered her friends offer for a moment but shook her head "No, I'll be fine" she smiled "I've got inventory on the USS- erm -West Virginia, I think" rubbing the back of her neck she sighed "I should only take a couple of hours. What are your plans on your day off?"

"Well Red's taking me to the beach in the afternoon and then when you come home we are going out to get your mind off things" she smiled and Bonnie nodded.

"Love you Bet."

"Love you too Bon."
