A/N: I posted a blog on myspace about my writing so I hope some of my friends read this and leave a review. (If you are one of my friends from myspace in the user name leave your name) On with the chapter…
The next morning Lindsay woke with a start. Today was the day that she was to bring Danny back to her house. I feel like I'm bringing a baby home for the first time. She thought as she ran to take on last look at the guest room before going to get Danny. Here we go. As she grabbed her keys and headed for the door.
Danny didn't get much sleep the night before due to the nightmares he kept having. I can't wait to go home. Danny thought as he walked around the room getting everything ready to go. He was moving pretty slow due to his wounds but that didn't matter he was getting out of this room after having not been outside in over a week. He was so lost in thought that he didn't hear the door open.
"Hey Danny."
"AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!" Danny yelled as he jumped about three feet in the air. Then he grabbed his chest. Danny turned around. "GOD, MONTANA YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?"
"Sorry, Danny" Lindsay said with a smirk. "You ready to go?"
Danny took a look around the room to make sure he had everything. "Yeap, got it all let's get the hell outta here."
Lindsay just nodded as she followed Danny out of the room. After they got in the truck Lindsay turned the SUV around and started to head to her apartment.
"Uh, Montana, my apartment is the other way."
"I know, but you are going to be staying with me for a couple weeks." Lindsay said not looking at Danny.
A look a pure horror crossed Danny's face. "I thought I was going home." Why didn't anyone tell me I was going to Lindsay's?
"The doctor didn't want to release you on your own. I figured since my place was closer to the hospital that it just made sense if you stayed with me. Everyone agreed." Lindsay said with a smile till she looked over at Danny and saw the look on this face. "Are you okay?"
Danny looked at Lindsay and tried to shake the fear. "Yeah, I'm okay."
"Would you rather stay with Don?" Lindsay asked afraid the answer would be yes.
Danny thought for a second. If I stay with Flack I won't be around Lindsay and she may be safe, but if I stay with Flack I can't keep an eye on Montana. "Na, you're prettier." Danny said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
Lindsay took notice of all this but didn't say anything.
The rest of the ride was in silence till they got in door of her apartment.
"Don went to your apartment and got you some clothes and stuff." Lindsay said as he took Danny's bag and walked down the hall to the guest room. "My room is at the end of the hall. The bathroom in the door on the right and your room is this one on the left. Make yourself at home."
Danny looked around the living room. He was sad to say this was the first, well second, time he had been in Lindsay's apartment. His CSI eye took in every detail. The living room was decorated with a country feel to it. You can take the girl out of the country… Danny though with a smile. On the entertainment center were pictures of Lindsay with some friends from Montana, a couple of the gang, one with her parents, but the one that stood out was the one of them together. It had been taken after the gang had solved a pretty high profile case and went for drinks to celebrate. In the picture Danny had his arm around Lindsay and she was leaning into him. They both had the biggest smiles on their faces.
"You want something to eat? I'm sure that hospital food wasn't all that great." Lindsay said now she was nervous. Now that I have him here what do I do with him. Of course that thought was followed by many things she would like to do to him.
"I'm sorry what?" Lindsay said when she realized Danny had been talking to her.
Danny smirked what he wouldn't give to be able to read her mind at this moment. "I said pizza sounds good."
"Okay, I'll order it. Why don't you go take a shower?" Lindsay said.
"That sounds like a wonderful idea." Danny said as he went to what was now his room.
Lindsay stood in the living room and was brought out of thought by the shower going. Okay now that just ain't right Lindsay thought as pictures of Danny in the shower went through her mind.
After ordering the pizza Lindsay turned on the TV and was watching a new show that she had started to watch. Danny came in the room with a brown paper bag and a shirt in his hands and pajama bottoms on.
"Um, I hate to ask this of you Montana, but could you please put this ointment on my wounds? It still hurts a little to raise my arms." Danny asked quite embarrassed.
Lindsay was trying not to stare. "Yeah, sure come here. Can you sit on the floor so I can do your shoulder?" Lindsay asked as she took the bag from Danny.
"What ya watching" Danny asked as he did what she asked.
"It's a new show called Bones. It's really good." Lindsay said as she started to apply the ointment.
Danny couldn't help the sigh that escaped his lips when she started to apply the ointment. After she had put it on the back of his shoulder she came around to do the front. As she did so she couldn't bring herself to look at him.
When she applied it to his chest he hissed in pain she knew she had made a mistake when she looked into his eyes. Time stood still and they moved closer together. They both closed their eyes waiting for the moment they both had secretly wanted and as their lips came together.
BANG BANG
Lindsay jumped in the air and almost fell on her butt before she regained her balance. "Oh, that's the pizza."
Danny tensed up when she opened the door and looked around to see where her gun was.
"Okay thanks, keep the change." Danny heard Lindsay say as he stood up and got a button up shirt on.
He walked into the kitchen to see Lindsay getting plates and cups out. "What do you want to drink? I have tea, coffee, juice, and of course Dr. Peppers."
"A DP is fine." Danny said.
Either one could look at each other in the eyes. After eating a very quiet dinner Danny said he was going to take his pills and go to bed. Lindsay just nodded.
Later that night Lindsay awoke to the sounds of what could only be described as a fight. She jumped out of bed grabbed her gun and race to the guest room. When she opened the door she was not prepare for what she saw.
Danny woke up sometime later in what looked like a warehouse. His head hurt like a bitch and his whole body was sore.
"Oh, look he's awake." Said a voice he didn't know.
"Looks like we get to finish our lesson huh?" Came a second voice that he also didn't know.
"Come on guys, I think he got the point. Just leave him here and lets get the hell out of here." That voice he thought he knew.
"No way, we have a job and we are going to do It." came the voice from the second guy. I'll call him Bob Danny thought.
"Yeah, Ray stop being a baby." came the first guy's voice. I'll call him JeffDanny thought and the third one must be Ray.
Danny turned on his side, which turned out to be the wrong thing to do. He screamed in pain.
"That's right" said Jeff "scream for us. You deserve everything you get for sending"
"SHUT UP!!!" screamed Bob "Don't say anymore or they will figure out who we are dumb ass!"
Okay so this is revenge. I guess I put someone they know way. Of course there is no telling who Danny thought. He opened his eyes only to find they had put some kind of bag over his head.
"Let the fun begin" said Bob.
Danny didn't know how long they had been beating him. He only knew that they knew all about him. The only thing that kept him going was they talked about Lindsay.
"Now that is one fine piece of ass right there." Jeff said.
"LEAVE HER ALONE" Danny screamed. All he got for his trouble was a kick in the side.
"It seems we have hit a sore spot for Mr. Messer." Bob said. "Ray you need to get your ass over here and help with the job."
"No way, I'll just be the look out." Ray said in a voice you could tell was scared.
"Suite yourself" Jeff said shrug.
The beating continued for a little longer and that was when he heard the gun click.
"Should we just kill him" asked Bob.
"NO!!!" screamed Ray "I did not sign up to kill anyone."
"The kids right ya' know." Jeff said.
"Give me the damn gun" Bob demanded.
Danny just prayed. He didn't really feel the first shot that hit his shoulder. He just remembered hitting the ground. The shot to the chest made him scream. Then the world went black for what he hoped wouldn't be the last time.
