On the ride over to the restaurant, Flacks jovial mood was beginning to rub off on Danny whos own was lightening up.

"You feel for Papa Rossi, don't ya? Losing is heir to the boys in blue. On the plus side, Mama Rossi's got one less mouth to feed at the table." Flack mused.

"Ya know, I'm pretty sure this place does a pizza named Rossi."

"Get out?"

"I think. Don't quote me on it."

"Aw I'm havin' it. I don't care if it's swimming in anchovies."

"Think I'll get me a pair of those Rossi shoes I saw on the Home Shopping Network."

"Jeez, Dan. Home Shopping Network. Sure you wouldn't be happier with a Rossi purse."

"Hey, Lindsay leaves it on all the time. Its in the background. Says she finds it soothing listening to them trying to sell junk."

"Sure."

They both laughed. Danny knew it was important to laugh again. This last chase had taken its toll on everyone including his and Lindsay's relationship. The tension felt between them never amounted to anything serious but Danny was tired of the strain. The one person Danny wanted to laugh most with again was Lindsay.

When they got to Di Napolis, Danny and Flack could see through the window that everyone was there already. Upon entering, the whole restaurant erupted with cheers and applause. Then the owner came up to greet them.

"Ah, colleghi! Come. I am so grateful for all you have done. Grazie! Grazie!" said the owner as he vigorously shook Dannys and then Flacks hands. They both remembered that Di Napolis was a name on Luca Rossi's 'protection' list.

Danny made a beeline straight for Lindsay and leaned to kiss her forehead as Mac stood to make a quick congratulatory toast. Although he ran the risk of disturbing Macs address, Danny couldn't hold back from talking to Lindsay.

"How are ya, honey? Sorry we're late." he whispered.

"Don't worry. Rossi pizzas all round." Lindsay said with a smile that always takes his breath away.

"Excellent. You have trouble finding a sitter for Luce?"

"Some. I was starting to think Macs get-together clashed with a baby-sitter strike but I eventually got hold of someone from the Agency."

"Who d'ya get? Tell me it wasn't that Maggie girl? The one that twists and turns all our stuff?"

"No, it's a new girl" Lindsay replied with loving attitude. "Maisie... something... I think and F.Y.I, Maggie says it creates a calming and soothing atmosphere. I was beginning to enjoy her Feng Shui lectures."

"Tch" scoffed Danny, " Feng Shui. More like Feng shi…"

"To Danny!" Macs voice cut him short before he could finish and before Lindsay could deliver her primed jab.

Glasses were raised and the efforts of everyone were applauded.
