A/N: Okay I couldn't wait to write the next chapter so here it is:

Lindsey had been waiting in the hospital for quite sometime. Mac and everyone had already come by and Lindsey told them to go home that she would wait and call when she got any news. When she thought she was about to go to sleep that is when the doctor finally walked into the waiting room.

"Is anyone here for Danny Messer?" Dr. Carlton asked.

"I am." Lindsey said as she stood up "How is he?"

"Please come with me." Dr. Carlton said as he led her through the double doors that took them inside. They stopped in front of a window where Lindsey could see in and got her first real look at Danny.

He was wrapped in a bandage around his chest and shoulder. "I know it looks bad, but he is going to be alright. He took a pretty bad beating as well as being shot twice."

"Beating? Shot twice? I only saw the one bullet wound." Lindsey said looking at Danny through the glass.

"I would say from the wounds that he was beat for a good hour before he was shot. The one bullet that was in his shoulder barely missed some main arteries. The second bullet was the one that caused most of the problems in surgery. He was shot from behind and the bullet nicked one of his kidneys. It took a while to get the bleeding under control and we also lost him, but he pulled through and should make a full recovery."

Lindsey just looked at Danny and couldn't take her eyes off of him. He might recover physically but I'm worried about the emotional part. Lindsey thought as the doctor walked away. Lindsey carefully opened the door and went and sat next to Danny.

"Oh, Danny what did you get yourself into?" Lindsey asked in a whispered voice. After sitting with Danny for a few minutes she got up to make the calls to the gang. As she reached the door she heard a small voice call out her name.

"Lindsey"

Lindsey turned around to see that Danny was still asleep.

"No, Lindsey don't go in there."

By this time Lindsey knew he was going to have a nightmare and went to his bed side.

"Okay Danny I won't but what do you want to do?" Lindsey asked like she was in the dream.

"Anything, just don't go in the door. Please" came the small reply from Danny.

"Okay, I'll follow you." Lindsey said as she noticed Danny's whole body relax.

"LINDSEY DUCK!!" Danny screamed in his sleep and tried to jump out of bed.

"DANNY WAKE UP!!! Lindsey screamed at him.

By this time the alarms were going off in his room and the doctors and the nurses came running in.

"I'm sorry but your going to have to leave." Said one of the nurses as she pushed Lindsey out of the room.

"Okay." Lindsey answered in a voice almost as small as Danny's had been.

Lindsey went out to make the calls with silent tears running down her face.
