Chapter Nine - Late Night Phone Call

Danny walked through his apartment door and threw his bag on the sofa. He slouched on the sofa beside it. Saying his day had been long was an understatement it had been a very long day, but Danny soon found himself drifting to thoughts of Lindsay.

Within minutes he had picked up his house phone and dialled Lindsay's number.

"Hello?"

"Hey Montana, you alright?"

"Danny! I didn't expect you to call this evening, cant keep you away I see!"

Danny could hear Lindsay laughing across the phone line, he could see her face, the way her dimples become more pronounced when she laughed, he wish he could see her.

"Well I did tell you that you're addictive."

"That you did Danny, so to what do I owe this pleasure?"

"I don't know, I came home and all I wanted to do was call you, is that a problem?"

"Of course not, I think its sweet, to be honest I was hoping you would call I've missed you today even though I saw you at lunch!"

Danny smiled.

"Well, well Montana, I wasn't expecting that!"

On the other end of the phone line Lindsay began to blush, she knew she had fallen for Danny, the fact they had both said they loved each other yesterday was something she wasn't expecting to happen quite so soon but she wasn't regretting it. She was loving every minute of it.

"Montana? You still there?"

"Yeah…I am, sorry about that I got caught up in my own little world for a minute there, so how is your case going?"

Danny laughed.

"Its going well, not a pleasant one but we are getting places."

"That's good, glad to hear it, is there any gossip that I need to know of when I come in tomorrow?"

Danny shook his head and then realised that Lindsay couldn't see him do that he laughed to himself, he was used to having conversations with Lindsay in person not over the phone, he was experiencing something new.

"Nah, nothing overly excited happened in the lab, I am beginning to think we were the only thing people liked to talk about!"

Lindsay laughed on the other end of the phone line. Danny felt his heart flutter, there was something about her laugh that made him take a few steps back and take her all in.

"Do you know something Danny, I think you may be right…for a change."

"Whoa hold on a minute Montana, if I remember correctly I have been right more than once, its not uncommon."

"Ok, ok…Danny, as much as I am enjoying talking to you, I need to sleep, you've kept me up the last couple of nights and I think its beginning to show, I will speak to you more tomorrow…I promise."

"Ok Linds, I'll speak to you tomorrow, I will see you at the lab?"

"Of course, I love you."

"I love you to, sweet dreams."

"You too. Bye."

And with that Lindsay hung up the phone and left Danny wanting more, within minutes of the end of the phone call both Danny and Lindsay were in their own beds urging or the night to pass so that they could see each other again.
