It seemed liked forever before Danny got to Jo's house, but when he arrived Jo couldn't help but be a little happy. She hated that he was having problems with his mother. After all, she is the person that gave him life. At the same time, Karen isn't always easy to get along with. Karen likes when things go her way, and sometimes when they don't she throws a fit. For the longest time Karen hated Tess, and Tess wasn't always innocent, but at one point Karen even threw a glass bowl at Tess.
Jo walked out of her house quietly and walked over to Danny, wrapping her arms around him. "I'm so glad you're okay, Danny." She said softly. She felt like she didn't know if Danny was on the run again, but in all honesty he wasn't. Once he was cleared on both Tara's and Regina's murders some people in Green Grove started to get use to Danny.
"I don't want to stay here long." Danny said as he held his suitcase in his hand and wrapped his arms around Jo's waist. "I'm going to start looking for a place of my own tomorrow. After all, ten million dollars should get me somewhere." Danny left out a soft laugh. Jo could tell that part of him wasn't happy to be having a fight with his mom, but the other part was happy to be out of the house. He had wanted to become more independent, but in a way he wasn't ready. Now he had to be an adult and become responsible, even though five years in juvie made Danny a very responsible young man.
Jo smiled softly and let out a quiet sigh. She was happy to have Danny here, and she was hoping that if he found a house then maybe she could move in with him. Danny did bring it up earlier when they were texting, but sometimes things are said that people don't mean. Jo just hoped that this wasn't one of those things.
"You're sure that it is okay with your parents if I stay here for a while?" Danny asked as the couple started walking towards the front door of Jo's house.
Jo knew she had to be honest with him. "Mom said that it was fine. Dad doesn't know yet. He's asleep, so I'll talk to him in the morning when we wake up for school. I normally leave before he does unless there is something big going on." Jo could see that Danny felt a little uneasy about staying at their house without her dad knowing. "He'll probably be fine with it. He may not be extremely happy, but he'll be okay with it." Jo said, trying to help ease Danny's thoughts. Jo was good at that. She was the first person that all of her friends went to, because she always tried to help them even when it was an almost impossible situation.
They quietly walked inside and up the stairs to Jo's room. Waking up Kyle was the last thing that either one of them wanted to do because then he'd be grumy tomorrow. "We'll it's one thirty in the morning on a school night. Shall we get to bed?" Danny asked softly. When Jo shook her head Danny smiled softly. "I'll go sleep on the couch." Danny said, knowing that sleeping in the same bed probably wasn't the best idea.
Jo didn't want Danny to sleep on the couch. She didn't want anything to happen, or not right now, but she still wanted him to sleep in the same bed with her. "Danny you don't have to do that. You can sleep in my bed with me. That's fine." She said softly looking at him.
Danny softly smiled at Jo as if that was what he wanted to hear. He sat his suitcases in the corner by her window and then sat on her bed. It was a good thing that he slept with only his shirt off. Jo turned towards her closet and lifted her shirt off. She then grabbed her pajama shirt and pulled it on her body, letting the somewhat tight shirt wrap around her body. She then pulled off her pants and pulled on some pajama pants, that were not tight but were baggy and fluffy. Knowing Danny was watching her, she softly smiled as she then climbed into bed with him.
"I haven't seen you in pajamas in a long time." Danny smiled softly as he kissed her head. "It's funny how you can wear anything and still be beautiful." Jo loved hearing this from Danny.
Looking up at Danny Jo smiled and kissed him softly. "Good night." She said with a smile on her face as Danny then wrapped his arms around her, and they both started to fall in a deep sleep.
