The room spun in Lindsay's eyes as she felt a pair of strong hands catch her fall.
"Danny, I can't walk." Lindsay protested but she was met with a worried look from Danny.
"Montana, let me carry you to the couch. You scared me to death there."
Lindsay tried one more time but felt her feet lift off the ground and into the arms of Danny.
As he settled her down on the couch, Danny looked into her brown eyes and even though no words were spoken, he knew what he had to do. Lindsay, also knew what he was going to do too.
"Danny, you can't leave."
His hands caressed her face, revealing to her at the same time that she was just not any girl to him. She was Montana and she knew that he would never harm her; he loved her.
"Listen, Linds, I need to get with Mac on this one. Even though Vackner is free, we have to find a way to protect you. We need to find a loophole that would get him arrested again. Maybe some outstanding warrants? Either way, he will be in custody again."
"Are you sure?" Lindsay said, biting on her lower lip.
Danny leaned over and kissed the top of her head. "Of course," Danny said. "You know I always win, right?"
This remark got a response from her. "Of course, it only happens when you release the Messer charm. Everybody succumbs to it."
Danny smirked and reached into his pocket and grabbed for his cell phone. He called the station and asked for a uniform officer to come over and watch the door at Lindsay's apartment.
After the officer came and everything was settled, Danny headed for the lab, unsure if he made the right decision and too late to take it back.
