You did what!
A/N: as if Danny didn't feel bad enough, now he has to deal with everyone else's opinion. Poor guy.

Danny's heart was heavy. Kate's leaving had shocked him to the core. He went into work the next morning, dazed and depressed. Don noticed this immediately.
"Hey Danny, What's up?" Flack looked at his miserable friend in concern. He was going to ask Kate to marry him last night. He should be happy.
"Kate's gone." Danny said solemnly.
"Gone? What do you mean gone? Is she dead? Did someone take her?" Danny stopped his rambling before he could go on.
"I let her go." Don's eyes flew open.
"You let her go! How could you be such a dumb ass!" Danny shrugged.
"Well, if you love someone, let 'em go, right?"
"Wrong!" Don shook his head. "I can't believe you would do something so stupid. Even I wouldn't do that." He said, pointing to himself as he started to pace.
"Hey! You think I don't know that I just let the greatest woman I've ever known walk out of my life? Huh? You think I don't know that I will never love anyone as much as I love Kate? And that without her, my life means nothing? You think I don't know that? Cause I do. I spent all night think about and I'll keep thinking about it until the day I die." Danny wiped away angry tears from his cheeks. Flack put his hands on both sides of his head.
"Where is the Danny Messer I know and love? Where's the guy who would not give up no matter what the consequence, especially when it something he was really passionate about. Kate is the best thing that ever happened to you. You cannot let her get away." Don let go and smacked the back of his friends head. "Why are you still standing here, go!" Danny just looked at his bewildered friend as Stella entered.
"What's going on?" She asked, noticing the serious mood.
"Genius over here let Kate go." Don pointed over his shoulder with his thumb.
"What? Why?"
"I had to." Danny hung his head. Stella walked over to him, removed his glasses, slapped him hard and then replaced his glasses.
"How could you be so stupid? Even he wouldn't do that!" She pointed at Flack. "Kate's the best thing that's ever happened to you."
"So I've been told." He mumbled as he rubbed his face.
"Then why are you still here flapping your gums, go get her." She exclaimed.
"What am I supposed to do? Run over to her apartment and beg her to take me back?"
"YES!" They yelled at the same time.
"I can make it an order, Danny." They all turned to see Mac standing in the doorway. "I know what it's like to be in love like that. It only happens once in a lifetime. Don't let it pass you by because of me or anyone." Danny just stared at Mac for a moment as he tried to figure out what had just happened. Then, with his mind made up, he ran past all of them and out of the building.
"Atta boy Danny. Go get her." Stella cheered as she watched him leave.
"You think this story's going to have a happy ending?" Flack asked. Mac smiled.
"I think they'll get their happily ever after."
