Finding out the truth

Chapter 2

When Mac walked into the lab the next day he looked up at Stella's office hoping that it was all a horrible dream. It wasn't when he looked up he saw it was true. He could feel tears starting to build up in his eyes. He walked into the break room to tell the others the news.

'Mac' Hawkes said when Mac walked into the break room 'Where's Stella?'

'Guys I've got something to tell you. Danny you know what I'm going to say I trust'

'If it's about what happened yesterday then yeah'

'Mac what's going on' Lindsey asked worriedly

'Yesterday Stella resigned'

Hawkes and Lindsey were speechless. Hawkes was the first to recover 'Danny how come you're not surprised?' he asked

'Stella told me yesterday on the phone'

'OK guys carry on with the cases you were yesterday. Danny think you can handle the case by you're self'

'Yeah Mac'

'Ok good. I'll be in my office if you need me.'

When Mac got to his office he called Courtney to tell her that they were over. As soon as he had hung up Danny came bursting through his office door.

'What's wrong Danny?'

'Stella's here to see you'

'Send her up.'

'Okay'

Danny walked back out and a minute later Stella walked through his office door.

'Stel what's up?'

'Did you mean what you said yesterday?'

'Yeah. I did' he said coming round to stand next to her. He gently pulled her chin up.

'I love you Stel.' He then kissed her gently. Stella responded by wrapping her arms around his neck. 'I love you to Mac. But what about Courtney?' She asked against his lips

'I finished it with her earlier' he said when he'd pulled away.

'Good cause I don't want to be the other woman'

'You would never be the other woman. You know that.' He then kissed her again. When he pulled away he asked her 'You going to come back to work'

'I dunno depends if the chief will allow me back'

'You know he never put you're resignation through and he gave me you're gun and badge to give to you if you ever reconsidered'

'So Mac can I have them back please.'

He went back to his desk a got the gun and badge out. 'There you go' he said giving them to her.

'Thanks'

'Welcome back Stel.'
