A/N: Here's the second chapter, hope you like it. It's just more of Lindsay's flashbacks but it does have a point. I also need some help deciding what Danny's middle name should be. Any suggestions? Please review, they help me write faster.

Disclaimer: I own nothing to do with CSI:NY, although I wish I did.


7.25pm

Lindsay and Stella sat in Stella's living room. It had taken slightly longer to get there since they ad stopped at Starbucks on the way to get a drink each, Stella had Coffee while Lindsay had Tea. Before they left Lindsay told Danny that she was going round Stella's for a bit but would be home later.

"So, am I allowed to know what's wrong now that we're free from prying eyes?" Stella said as she put her coffee on the table in front of the sofa they were sitting on.

Lindsay took a long sip of her tea, wondering how to word her news best. "You have to promise me that you won't tell anyone what I'm about to tell you." Stella promised and Lindsay continued. "Well…the other day I realised that I was late and I panicked. So while Danny was at work I went and bought a home pregnancy test. It came back positive Stella!"

Both women were smiling by this time and Stella pulled Lindsay into a hug. "Sweetie that's fantastic! But why have you kept it a secret?"

"I don't know. I mean I haven't even told Danny about it yet. That was why we couldn't go back to my place."

"Why haven't you told Danny? I know he'd be so excited about it. He may have had a reputation of being a player but he loves kids and I know that he'd love to have kids, especially with you." Stella reassured her young friend while smiling at how much Danny had changed over the past couple of years, ever since a certain country girl had come to New York.

"I know but we've never really talked about having kids and our jobs kind of prevent having any sort of a normal life."

At this Stella's Mother Hen nature kicked in. "Look, Danny loves you and you love him and I know for a fact that you will both love this baby so much. Lindsay, don't for a second think that Danny wouldn't want to have this baby with you. Okay?"

Lindsay nodded and smiled. She had been stupid to think that Danny wouldn't want this baby or that he would love her any less when he found out.

8.50pm

After their conversation about the baby and Danny's reaction to the news, Lindsay had stayed with Stella a little while longer talking about everything from the wedding to the last weird case either of them had worked on. When she went to the bathroom she nearly tripped over a pair of men's boxers and she found a men's razor lying next to a second toothbrush above Stella's sink. Stella had blushed and quickly changed the subject but Lindsay knew that she was going to do some more digging at a later date. She was stepping into the elevator and she knew that when she got through the door into their apartment she was going to tell him. Stella had promised not to tell Danny that she knew before he did if Lindsay didn't want to tell him.

As she turned the key in the lock, she heard the sounds of the TV and knew that he was probably watching the rerun of today's game on ESPN.

Danny turned and looked over the back of the sofa when he heard the door open and as he put his beer bottle down he said "Hey Baby, how was Stella's?"

Lindsay smiled at her fiancé and walked over to give him a kiss once she had taken off her shoes. "It was great, you know we talked about all sorts and I think she has a secret boyfriend because when I nearly tripped over a pair of boxers lying in the middle of the hallway on my way to the bathroom and she had men's toiletries in there as well. When I asked her about it she blushed and changed the subject. I think we need to do some secret digging, Detective."

"Hmmm, we should."

Lindsay smiled and sat down next to him. After about 5 minutes her stomach started rumbling and Danny laughed.

"You hungry, Montana? I ordered some pizza about half and hour ago so it should be here soon."

"Yeah that sounds great. I'm gunna go change." She said as she walked towards the bedroom.

9.03pm

Lindsay took a deep breath and opened the door. She knew she had to tell him but she was going to wait until after they ate. While she was changing she heard the door bell ring and Danny pay the delivery guy for the food. Walking down the hallway to the living room she saw Danny sitting on the sofa with the pizza sitting in front of him untouched. Lindsay smiled, ever since their first date he never started eating without her. He had 2 beers in front of him. She knew one was for her but she'd let him have both. She made a quick detour to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge, after all she wasn't supposed to drink now she was pregnant.

Lindsay walked into the living room and sat down next to Danny who handed her a piece of pizza. He looked questioningly at the bottle of water in her hand and she shrugged. They turned back to the TV and just ate and enjoyed each other's company.

When they had demolished the pizza and cleaned away the box and the empty drinks bottles they sat back on the sofa and Danny put his arms around her as she half sat on the sofa and half laid on him.

"Danny, I've got something to tell you." Lindsay started. Danny just looked at her, panic suddenly gripped his heart at the thought that she was possibly having second thoughts about the wedding. Even after all this time he still worried that someone or something would come along and take her away from him. When she saw panic in his eyes, Lindsay smiled and kissed him. "Don't worry. It's good news."

Danny nodded as relief filled him.

"I'm not sure how you'll feel about this…but Danny I'm pregnant."

They looked into each other's eyes and Danny smiled. Happiness flooded his heart when he realised that he was going to be a daddy. They were going to be parents. Danny pulled her into a hug that was as loving as it was possessive. Relief flooded Lindsay when she realised that there was no way he would ever have considered this baby as anything but a miracle. By the time they pulled apart and looked into each other's eyes they were both crying.

"Really? We're going to be parents?" Danny asked breathlessly.

Lindsay smiled and nodded. Danny lent forward and captured her lips in a long and loving kiss. Any doubts she might have had about their future were destroyed in that kiss. That kiss told her everything she needed to know.
