One Night With Montana.

Danny motioned for them both to sit on the couch. He sat sideways so he could listen to her and watch her beautiful face.

"I'm all ears Montana." Danny said, as he pushed his glasses further up his nose. Lindsay turned to face him - she felt nervous but she knew this was not the time to be. 'He isn't going to runaway.' she told herself. She shifted closer and cleared her throat, afraid that her voice would break if she didn't.

"When I was at the Bozeman PD, there was this guy - James. There was always office gossip about him, ya know.. he isn't faithful, likes to dump his women at the drop of a hat when some one better came along. But I jus chose to ignore it. We were together a little over a year and had decided to get engaged.' She stopped as she remebered everything so clearly, and began fidgeting with her hands. A sign that Danny knew meant she was nervous. ' My sister Gemma, always wanted what she could't or didn't have, and most of the time she got it because she took it from me. James was staying at my parents house for a while. His was being redecorated so he had no where to stay...To cut a long story short... My mom came home early one day and she found James in her bed with Gemma."

Danny sat there listening intently. He knew something bad must have happened for her to still be so scared. Lindsay couldn't believe that Danny was listening to her every word - Most guys would have probably run by now.

She carried on. " My Mom.. She was always on meds for something or another... not always in the right frame of mind. But as soon as she saw Gemma and James in bed together, it flipped a switch inside. She thought that James had pressurized her into it and raped her.. but I know it was more like Gemma talked him into it. So mom grabbed Dad's rifle from the wardrobe and she... " Tears were streaming from Lindsays eyes. She couldn't take it anymore.

"Hey,' Danny whispered softly. He moved so that they were sitting tightly against the arm rest, and he pulled her close to him, hugging her tightly. 'I'ts ok."

"My...My mom always blamed me.." Lindsay sobbed. "She said it was my fault - that he was the devil and I should never have introduced him to our family... I just can't - "
"Linds. it is not your fault." Danny said as he rested his head on top of hers and ran a hand up and down her back.

"Everytime I get close to a guy, I feel as if Gemma is gonna come here and it's gonna start all over again." She said through her tears. "Now do you understand why I needed time?"

Danny shook his head and closed his eyes for a second. "I understand Montana, but I can promise you this.. Look at me,' he said softly holding her face level with his. ' Hey, I would never leave youfor anyone else - I would rather die than hurt you, ya hear me?"

Lindsay's sobs had turned into slow, quiet hiccups, leaving her eyes puffy and her cheeks wet. She smiled - she knew that Danny was a man of his word and that made her feel good.
"I have been trying... for so long to fight these feelings for you Danny... I - I just couldn't bring myself to tell you. I didnt know if you would run or stay if you knew how crazy my past is, and how much it - "
"Look, I don't care!" Danny replied cutting her off. His thumbs were once again making small circles on her cheeks. "All I know is... I wana be with you - now and for the rest of my life. I can't imagine myself with anyone else, sitting at home and growing old - but for a good reason, I can see myself doing that with you. And you still look beautiful!"

Those butterflies she always felt when Danny brushed past her in the lab, were back again. Bringing her hands up to his face, she traced the outline of his clean shaven jaw line, along his goat-eed chin. Danny licked his lips, and she knew what he wanted. She loved how he licked his lips - most of the time he was probably unaware that he did it. It did something to her brain and she always felt slightly turned on seeing him do it.
"I'm not gonna deny it Montana... I want you." Danny whispered. " But if it means I have to wait, I'll wait. I don't want you to feel -" Lindsay stopped Danny mid sentence by placing her index finger across his lips.
"Don't say it Danny... I'm ready." She replied smiling. She pulled his head closer to hers and closed her eyes as She waited for their lips to touch. Slowly her lips eventually brushed with Danny's and in no time at all they went from small soft kisses to hard passionate ones. Danny ran his tongue along her bottom lip, tasting and nibbling her. She groaned into his mouth - she never imagined Danny could taste so good!! Without thinking, her hand wandered into his soft messy hair, and grabbed a handful.

"Da..nny, " she whispered breathlessly between kisses. He moved his mouth from hers as she spoke his name, and placed small kisses along her jawline, making his way to her neck. "Danny... " she whispered again, "Let's.. go somewhere...else... get comfortable..." Her hand touched his face, and he looked up at her. Her lips were swollen slightly, making her look innocent. It just made him want her more. She stood up, took hold of his hand and led him to her bedroom.
