Noah sat in the booth in the diner tensely opposite Hayley.

"Oh the salad sounds nice doesn't it?" Hayley asked whilst looking at the blue menu

"What? Oh sorry Hayles, yeah salad sounds great", Noah answered.

"Are you ok?"

"Fine"

"Are you sure? I mean you seem a bit worried", Hayley told him

"No it's just me and Dani we had a bit of a disagreement, nothing to worry about", Noah said giving Hayley half a smile.

"Okay if your sure", Hayley said

"Fine Hayles so two salads?" Noah asked before going up to the counter and giving Irene their orders.


Dani stood outside the palace, not sure whether it was the right time to tell Scott about the baby. Finally she made a decision, she took a deep breath and knocked on the red door.

"Hi Dani", Leah smiled at her

"Hey is Scott in?" Dani asked her

"No, but he's due in any second", Leah explained

"Oh okay", Dani said about to leave the palace

"But you can stay and have a cup of tea until he gets in"

"Thank-you", Dani smiled

Dani walked in and looked around. It seemed centuries ago since she, Noah, Scott and Hayley had lived there together. Leah had made the house look so much better. She had more photos and it was way tidier. Scott lived there with Leah, VJ and Dan. Dani took a seat at the kitchen table and banged her fingers on the table quietly whilst waiting for Scott.

"Are you alright Dani?" Leah asked her concerned

"What? Um yeah, I'm uh fine", Dani told her

"Okay"

For the next ten minutes the two girls sat in silence sipping their tea. Leah was so grateful when Scott came through the door.

"Hey Leah! Oh Dani", Scott said a little unhappily

"Hi"

"Um Scott, Dani wants to speak to you so I'm gonna grab VJ and let you two talk", Leah said running out the room.

"So what do you wanna talk about?" Scott asked, putting down his bag.

"Uh I just wanted to uh catch up, what's been happening on the blaxland?" Dani asked trying to avoid the baby subject.

"Why can't you just ask Kane? Or Alf?" Scott asked her

"Well they're busy", Dani said

"Dani what's this really about? You've never had any interest in the blaxland and now all of a sudden you dying to know about it", Scott told her

"Okay", Dani started embarrassed she'd been caught out. "Well you know the baby I'm having?" Dani asked him.

"What about it?" Scott asked

"Well"

"Hurry up Dani"

"You are the baby's father", Dani said quickly

"What? You told me Noah was", Scott said shocked

"I know, I just"

"You just lied Dani", Scott said, finishing off her sentence

"NO!"

"What? I mean is this true?" Scott asked "I mean I asked you when you first found out you were pregnant but you said Noah was the dad"

"I thought he was"

"How long have you known?"

"A couple of months"

"What? Does Noah know?" Scott asked

"I told him this morning"

"This is unbelievable", Scott said slamming the palace door shut and getting into his car.

Dani sat at the kitchen table alone, how did this happen? Why did she lie?


Hayley Smith's Secret Diary

Something has happened between Noah and Dani. And it's not about this 'love triangle' it's something else. I asked Noah what was wrong but he just said everything was fine. I can tell when he's lying and when something's bothering him. What is it? I'm sure he'll tell me soon. Nick went back to America today and me and Will drove him to the airport. Gypsy, Will and Lily are going back to Queensland in two weeks so I'd better make the most of their visit. It's still bothering me that I don't know what's happened between Dani and Noah. It can't be that important or he'd tell me, wouldn't he? Oh I don't know, I need to stop worrying and just wait and see. Write more tomorrow.
