It's the next chapter, thanks for all of your recent reviews… now let's see how this Danny Mac convo is gonna go…
"Stella is a wonderful woman. She should be treated like one too."
"I give her plenty of respect."
"I know you do, but just here me out… You should take steps in your relationship, to make her know you care."
"Danny…"
"What I'm getting at is, take steps that you know might be risky, but don't be too strong, or subtle about it. Women, trust me, don't like that."
"Yeah, I know… but what is this all about?"
"Stella may be… pregnant."
"What?" he got up quickly. "You couldn't just come out and say that."
"Mac, what if she is pregnant? What would you do?"
"I would be happy, but not ready for parenthood," he said calming down.
"You understand where I'm getting at, don't you?"
"I'm going to propose to her."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I mean I love her a lot, and that's where the relationship is heading anyway."
Danny smiled, "You deserve the best man, glad you got her before someone else."
"Thanks Danny, which is why your going to be my best man."
"But what if she doesn't say yes?"
"I hope that doesn't happen, but its Stella we're talking about."
"yeah, your right, I'm sorry I doubted that."
"Don't worry about it, we should really find a ring though… and I have a good idea on how to do that."
"I wonder how the talk is going."
"Don't worry about it Stella, so when are you going to the hospital to take the tests?"
"I really don't know…"
Seconds later Danny and Mac come over to them.
"Hey Stell, I heard the announcement, about you might being… pregnant," he shivered at the last word.
"You look a little nervous," she blushed and smiled.
"Me, and Danny has to meet up with Flack for some important business. So we'll go to the hospital once we get back, okay?"
"Yeah Mac, me and Linds will be right here."
Mac smiles nervously and left with Danny, without looking back.
"Isn't it cute how nervous Mac is?" Lindsay laughed.
"He's never been nervous like this before. It's cute a strong man like him being so nervous," Stella joined the joke. "He's not the only one though," she said nervously.
"Stella, it will be fine, I promise."
Meanwhile, Mac and Danny were in the NYPD building talking to Don.
"Congratulations man, and she'll say yes, no doubt about that."
"Thanks Don for the support, we should be going."
They all agree and head for the closest jewelry store. While they are searching Adam came into the lab, holding hands with Michelle. When Stella saw she grew excited.
"I'm guessing you guys had I good night," she smiled.
"It was great Stell," Adam stated and Michelle blushed.
"He's really gentle, we are going to be great partners," she said talking to Stella. "Babe, I've got to go do something, be back later," she kisses Adam's cheek and rushes off. Leaving Adam smiling.
"Thanks Stell for making us work together, we get along greatly."
"Good to here, and I have news for you… I might be… pregnant."
"OMG, does Mac know about this?"
"Yeah, he's so nervous to find out it so sweet… so Michelle huh?"
"You should set me up with women more often."
"Adam, we need to have a serious talk…"
"Okay," he shrugs and Stella pulls him to the bench.
"I'm only telling you this because I care about you… but don't rush things so fast with Michelle, and what's up with you and this swapping women stuff?"
"It's my nature Stell, I need to find the one that's right for me… I mean Danny has Lindsay, and well you have Mac."
"Maybe you can't find the right one because you're looking too hard… I used to be that way."
"I guess, but me with one woman is hard for me."
"I bet it is, but you need to get over your fear of commitment."
"I don't have no fear…" he was cut off by Stella.
"Just think about this, you can never stay with one woman longer than a week, and that's because you don't give them a chance… so hear me out… and give Michelle a chance."
"Okay Stella, I like her more than other women I dated, she gets me and she's pretty."
"There you go Adam… your not completely drooling over her going 'She's Hot' mode that you always go in."
"Yeah, I kind of grown up in that one category."
"Adam, she is very lucky to have a guy like you."
"Thanks for the talk Stella… and if it's a boy will you name him after me?"
"I'll think about it," she laughed and patted his back. Adam smiled and left. Lindsay soon came back.
"Adam sure looks happy about something."
"Yeah, he's one great kid…"
Mac's search is coming to a close, they all picked one ring that looked good, and Mac had to decide which one to get…
"Um… I wish I had a woman's opinion…"
"Yeah, what woman knows this kind of stuff," Flack mentioned and they both turned to Danny.
"Uh… what?"
"Lindsay seems like a perfect person to decide," Mac smiled.
"Fine, I'll call her…"
"No!" they both shouted.
"She might be talking to Stella, and if you call her she'll squeal her lungs out… um, just go back to the lab and drag her over here," Mac explained to him.
"Fine, I'll be back," he grunts and left for the lab.
"I can't wait to see the look on Lindsay's face," Flack laughed at the thought.
Stella and Lindsay were in deep conversation, once Danny came over.
"Linds, we need an extra hand with the crime scene."
"Okay, but me and Stella were talking…"
"No, it's okay they must really need you, we'll talk later, I promise," Stella smiled, and Lindsay got up…while they were heading to the "crime scene" Lindsay wouldn't stop complaining.
"This better be a good thing pulling me out of an interesting conversation Messer…"
"Don't worry it is, so will you please shut up?" he asked politely.
"Sure," minutes later they arrive. "Okay, why are we here?" she asked looking from Flack to Mac back at Danny all just standing there.
"We need a women's point of view on something," Mac said as he smirked nervously. "We're trying to find a ring that would be best… for Stella," he hesitated.
Lindsay jaw drops, and they are prepared for her to squeal; which she does very loud, they all had to shield their ears. She ran up to Mac and gave him a HUGE hug…
"OH MY GOD!!!! It's about time Mac, she'll say yes I promise you…" she released her tight grasp.
"I'm glad your excited about this," he smiled. "But please don't tell her…"
"Okay, okay, this is something I wouldn't ruin for you Mac, I promise you and Stella that everything will work out fine…."
"So, which ring should I get?"
Well that's the chapter!! Hope you enjoyed and review your little hearts out. Do you think this story is really excellent… *hint hint* then vote for it.
