Mac called the station and told Adam to bring Louie to the hospital. He told Adam to tell Louie that Danny was in the hospital. That will get him here. Mac sat down in the waiting room.
"My brother, where's my brother." Louie screamed as soon as he came through the double doors.
"Louie," Danny called. "What are you doing here?"
"I came cause Mac told me that you were in the hospital."
"I was at the hospital not in."
"He told Adam in…I came cause I was…." Louie hugged his brother.." I love you." Mac saw the two brothers hugging. Now, that I got them here, I can tell them about Angel.
Mac walked up to them.
"Louie, Danny can we talk?" Mac questioned.
"Are you going to arrest my brother?" Danny questioned. Hoping that if Mac was going
to not to do it there.
"No just talk." Mac swallowed. "I want to talk to the both of you." He pointed to the direction on the smaller waiting room off to the side. Louie started walking that way.
Danny sighed. "Haven't we had enough excitement for one day?" Danny sat down waiting for Mac's to get on with whatever he was going to say. He just wanted to get out of there and go home.
"I have…." Mac started but Don burst into the room.
"Mac we need to talk, why didn't you tell me about…"
"Samantha told you didn't she?" Mac said looking up.
"Yes, I.." Don shook his head. "I don't know what to think."
"I wanted to tell Louie and Danny first."
"They don't know?" Don stared in direction of the two brothers.
"Know what?" Danny twisted his head fast to glare at Mac. "Tell us what?"
Don looked at Danny then at Louie then to Mac. Mac swallowed.
"That your daughter Louie is alive."
"What? my dau…." Louie got up from the chair and went to the other side of the small waiting room. "Where? Can I see her?"
"You have a daughter!" Danny was shocked. This was first time he heard of this.
Danny glared at his brother. "You never told me." he voice was getting louder.
"I…I didn't know until my girlfriend told me then"…Louie sighed tears fell from his face. "She wanted me to stay away cause…" he blinked, "it was better for the both of them….well back then I thought it was…" he closed his eyes and sighed. "then the…" he lowered his head…. "Then the accident happened….the murder of my girlfriend/ fiancé, there was no sign of my daughter so I never thought about it….I thought both were murder….the police they didn't care if gang members killed each other just one less to worry about….I feared I was next….I…" Louie said trying to explain to his brother.
"You hid it from me……all these years?"
"Yes, I wanted to pain to go away…..I didn't want to put you in this….I was afraid they might come after you………."
"So you swept it under the carpet………like they were nothing…….." Danny turned his head away from his brother.
Louie lifted his head to look at his brother. "That's not true." He got closer to his brother… he wasn't much taller then Danny now they were face to face…….. "I found blood splatter all over my girlfriends/fiancé's house. All over the walls…..all over the ceiling…….a big pool of blood still wet I might add on the floor….." Danny swallowed. "I was sick…….I never looked back. I regret it everyday………I carried the guilt for almost 12 years now…..I never forgave myself…. "
"So you were just going to keep this a secret."
"Well," Louie started. Mac had to do something to change the subject, to get them back on track.
"Danny you meet her already." Mac jumped in changing the subject back to Angel.
"What? when? I been on this case with what's her name…" he looked at Mac. Mac nodded. Both Danny and Louie sat down side by side while Don and Mac sat across from them.
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about." Mac told the two of them the whole story.
"You didn't tell us earlier about the name switch."
"I had to make sure I didn't want to make assumptions. I had to follow the evidence."
"You mean…Chantelle….Angel is my niece."
"Yes, I did the DNA test myself, I also wanted to tell Louie that Amy is alive too."
"My fiancé what? But who's…."
Mac shook his head, "I have no idea, we may never know that." Danny watched his brother's expressions. I should forgive him….but why not tell me….he was young and in that gang…..I see his point he was protecting her.
"If the two of you can be clam, I will let you see her."
Danny smiled at his brother as they got up. Danny grabbed his brother and hugged him.
"We can do this."
Angel lay in her hospital bed. Her head was spinning. I finally got to see Don again and all he did was run out, why?
He's still likes you but doesn't want to admit it. Her mind told her.
I…. she sighs softly.
Danny and Louie stood outside her door in the hallway. They stared at Angel then at each other. Louie turned to look at Mac.
"What do I say to her? I mean it's not like she knows who I'm."
"She doesn't know me either." The three men turned to see a blond nurse who was walking down the hall with Don.
"Amy?" Louie couldn't believe his eyes, was this really her. He blinked a few times to make sure that he was not dreaming. "I…."
She didn't answer him. She grabbed him into a hug. "I…" he tried to talk again but lost his train of thought. Tears flowed from his eyes. "I…."
"shhh…just hold me." She whispered to him in his ear.
"Our daughter…." He sniffed.
"She has a couple of broken ribs and has suffered a collapsed lung but she's a fighter." Hawkes told them.
"And a black eye, that was from me." Danny confessed. "I hit my own niece, when I was drunk." He looked over at his brother. "I'm….I'm sorry."
"You can go in and see her."
"I…." Louie started.
"We will together." Amy took Louie by the arm. "This way."
"Wait." Louie pulled her closer. "I'm sorry…" he leaned forward and kissed her on the lips. She responded to him like no time went by. Louie's kiss still curled her toes and intoxicated her.
"Let's do this." He swallowed.
Louie and Amy went in the hospital room.
"Angel…." Angel didn't move, she had her eyes closed. "Angel," he called a little louder. Still nothing. He shrugged his shoulders and Amy gasped. He faced the window. Mac got really worried when he saw the look of horror on Louie face. Flack glanced at Mac and knew that something wasn't right.
