Lindsay was in shock Danny was proposing to her, what was she supposed to say? She loved him, but he had hurt her and he couldn't expect some proposal to make her forget and feel better. "Yes." Lindsay said barely above a whisper.

"Seriously?" Danny asked looking up at her like this was some cruel joke.

"Yes, did you expect a different answer?"

"Honestly I did."

"I am still upset with you because you lied to me, but that doesn't change the fact that I love you and you are the only one I can see myself spending the rest of my life with." Danny put the ring on her finger.

"I love you." Danny said kissing her.

"I love you too." Lindsay said kissing him again.


Lindsay was lying on Danny's chest admiring her ring. "You like it?" Danny asked kissing the top of her head.

"It's perfect." Lindsay's phone rang, "Hello."

"Please don't hate me."

"How could I ever hate you Stella?"

"Because we were suppose to watch a movie tonight, but Don and I got called to a scene and I just got the chance to call you and apologize."

"It's okay Stell, I understand the job."

"Will you be okay?"

"I think I can manage." Lindsay said smiling at Danny.

"I will make it up you."

"Okay, see you tomorrow." The girls said their goodbyes and Lindsay laid back down.

"You had plans tonight?"

"Yeah, Stella has been hovering around me."

"I really am sorry."

"I know." Lindsay said kissing him. "Oh, no." Lindsay said breaking off the kiss.

"What?"

"My mom! I've been engaged for two hours and I haven't called her."

"She knows."

"How? I didn't call her."

"Well she doesn't know you said yes, but I was asking your parents permission the past two days."

"You flew to Montana?"

"I knew tradition was important to you, so I decided to ask your dad."

"You flew all the way to Montana, and met my parents by yourself for me?"

"I would do anything for you."

"You did all of that when you weren't even sure I would say yes?"

"I was hoping?"

"How did my parents react? My dad wanted to kill you."

"They were pretty mad about what I had done, but decided if I thought it would make you happy, then I had their blessing."

"You're a good man, and it did make me happy." Lindsay said kissing him, "I still need to tell my mom my answer."

"Okay." Danny left the room to give her some privacy. A few minutes later Lindsay joined him on the couch.

"My mom sends her love." A comfortable silence enveloped them, "So you want to tell me what happened with Alyse, or would you prefer me to use my imagination?"

"Alyse and I dated casually in college, but nothing to serious and then about ten years ago we saw each other again and began dating. It wasn't real serious and we grew apart again, and that was the last time I heard from her. Then a couple months ago she calls me out of the blue and we met at a park and she said that her son could be mine. I did the math and it was possible, so we decided to get a paternity test. Every time I saw you I knew I needed to tell you, but I didn't want to ruin what we had, and that worked out real well for me."

"You know I would have been okay with it, if you would have told me. I know you have a past that I can't erase and I'm okay with that, but you have to include me in the present."

"I'm sure it would have been a lot easier if I had told you, and I regret not telling you everyday. I wish I could go back and tell you, but unfortunately I can't."

"I know, now can we please just put this behind us?"

"Shouldn't I be the one asking that?"

"Why does it matter as long as it is said?"

"I love you." Danny said kissing her.

"I know, now I have been waiting all day to see a guy get hit by a car. So either you go run out into the street or put in Dodgeball."

"I chose the movie."


A/N: Did we really think I would make her say no? Hope you enjoy it and it was worth the cliff hanger at the end of last chapter.
