Chapter Backstory: The CSIs were called out to process a hate crime that happened in a corn maze, and it really struck a chord with Danny.
Corn Maze
"I had to do it! You don't understand, gays like him just pollute the planet." Danny leaned back in his chair, speechless. "I mean, you've seen the way they go around and act like normal people, right?" Danny took a deep breath, and leaned across the table.
"So if I wasn't a cop, you'd want me dead?" The man fell silent. "That's right. I'm gay."
"You can't be."
"I'm normal. What's so different about someone liking someone else of the same sex? There's nothing wrong with it." The man leaned across the table, and Danny tensed.
"Everything is wrong with 'it'."
"You killed a man because of his sexuality. Everything is wrong with you."
"Sick freak." Danny had almost jumped across the table before Don walked in.
"Get him out of my sight." Danny stayed in the interrogation room for a few minutes after the man had been escorted out, and he stared down at the crime scene photos. The cuts in the victim's chest clearly spelled out 'FAG', and he wondered for a moment if he could've been the one in the photos.
"Danny?" Looking up, Danny collected the photos and took in a deep breath.
"I'm just finishing up, Mac."
"Go home. I'll finish this case up." Danny handed Mac the case folder, and said his thanks and goodbyes, and then went home. Adam was standing in the living room, phone in hand, and he looked over at Danny when he walked in the door.
"Hey. How did it go?"
"We got the guy. He killed a man because he was gay." Danny took off his coat and Adam crossed the room to wrap his arms around Danny's middle. "Adam, what is something like that happens to us?"
"It won't. And dinner's gonna be here in twenty minutes." Danny let Adam hold him, and he leaned up against the scientist, head resting on his left shoulder.
"Adam, I was thinking about something on the way home. What do you think about adopting a baby?"
