Chapter 8

Mac's office the next day

'Mac you said you wanted to see me'

'Yeah. Stel you okay you look a bit pale?' Mac asked concerned

'I'm fine Mac. It's nothing'

'Okay. Stella the chief has allowed you back so you start work now'

'Thanks. Mac?'

'Yeah Stel?'

'I'm pregnant'

'WHAT! Let me guess it's Sonny's right'

'Yeah. Mac what the hell is you're problem?'

'My problem is that you sleep with an ex-con and get pregnant!' he shouted loud enough for everybody that was outside stopped in their tracks to hear Mac shouting at his partner something that did happen often.

'So that's you're problem then, the fact that I'm pregnant with Sonny's kid and not yours!' she shouted back.

'Stella just get out of my sight will you'

'Fine. See you around Detective Taylor'


In the lab hallway

'Stel you okay?' Danny asked

'You mean you didn't hear the screaming match me and Mac had then?' she replied with her own question.

'Yeah I did.' Said Danny 'I guess congratulations are in order then'

'Thanks Danny. I don't know why Mac could of said that.'

'Said what'

'Congrats Stel or something like that' She replied tears beginning to spill from her eyes.

'Ah Stel don't cry. I'll tell you what let me take you home and I'll stay with you until Mac sorts himself out okay?'

'Yeah why not'

Mac looked out his office window and saw Danny wrap his arm around Stella's waist.

He turned around he was angry but he couldn't blame anyone else but himself. Maybe if he hadn't of shouted at Stella then she wouldn't be crying now.

I've got to sort this out he thought

He was about to get out his chair when Lindsey and Don burst through the door.

'What the hell did you say to Stel?' Flack asked

'Yeah she was in Danny's arms crying in the locker room. What happened Mac' Lindsey said

Mac was shocked he didn't think what he said had hurt her so much.

'Well…umm…


A/N: Cliffhanger again. I'm mean. Well that's what some people say.
