A/N: since no one really didn't do the poll but I do know that you had read the last chapter and waiting for more, I guessed that I had to pick the guy. Drum roll, please! *drum rolls* and the winner is: Thomas Gibson because I just plain like him and it will make it a little better for me to write the chapters.


Chapter Ten

**************

About three weeks after first meeting Grace Cahill with Sam, Elena, and Viv at work, it seems like that the women really like Grace and got along with her pretty well by having shopping trips together and girls' nights in or out with no men allow which is fine with Danny and Martin, especially Martin the most because when each day passed by, Martin Fitzgerald seems like he is falling in love harder and harder and it's so weird for Danny to see like him that and had to make sure that when the girls hangs out at night, it is the same night that he and Martin goes to their meetings which is fine with all of them expect Martin a little.

When Martin founded out that he cannot spent one night per week with his girlfriend from Danny at work, Martin just stared at him so weirdly that Danny spotted him doing that to him and gave him a look of his own while saying to him, "Fitz, stop giving me that bizarre look on your face! You do know that you had to spend at least one night away from your girlfriend?! That what me and Elena do to each other."

Thinking that was such a stupid idea, Martin was about to say to him, "But, Danny." when Danny gave him that same look on his face for the second time and said to him again, "Martin, no buts!" The moment that Martin was about to ask another question concerning the topic, Danny quickly shushed him and started saying something to him after grabbing his suit jacket off his chair to get ready to go into the field to talk to a witness of the latest MP.

"Martin, before I go, I want to wish you luck on your lunch date with Grace today." said Danny who was smiling at his friend, knowing that this is very important to Martin. After hearing that, Martin knew what Danny was talking about because Grace had to go out of town for work for a couple of days and will not come back until the next week while that this is the first time that Martin will not see her for a couple of days since she moved to New York three weeks ago. Plus, since Grace is suppose to leave New York at eight o'clock that night, Martin and Grace decided to have one last date for the week until she comes back. Yes, after Grace leaves the city, Martin Fitzgerald will be one miserable mess.

The moment he heard that, Martin smiled at him and said to his friend, "Yeah, thanks, Danny for that. I will need that." Danny heard that and was grinning at him when he said back to him, "Sure, Fitz. Remember, enjoy the date."

Martin smiled at Danny for telling him that and fist-bumped Danny's fist. He saw that Danny did the same thing to Martin and a smile had appeared on his face when he saw Danny leaving away to go and talk to a witness and the moment he saw, Martin turned around on his chair to his phone, grabbed the phone handle, and finally heard the head of the company's voice after about fifteen minutes of being on call-waiting and listening to 'Green sleeves' during the wait while wishing that time will fast forward to eleven-thirty when he leaves the building and had a lunch date with an intelligent, stunning, caring, and witty woman named Grace Cahill, the woman he kept falling in love with.

--

At the café where Danny was talking to a witness about what happened between her and Amanda Davis a week ago, Danny got something from her that seems very important to the case.

The moment he heard that from the woman he was talking to, Danny held his hand out and shook it with the woman who is watching a baby girl right now for her neighbor while Danny was saying to her, "That's great and thanks for your help. Here's my card if you got something else to tell me, okay."

Once he gave her his card with his name and phone number to the woman, he watched the woman putting it into her purse and said to him the moment she did that, the woman looked up to him and said to him with a slight smile on her face, "I'm okay with that and if I got something else to tell you, I will do that."

Danny gave the woman another smile on his face while letting the baby girl in the stroller next to the table one last playing with his fingers before getting up from his chair and headed back to the Plaza when he spotted Grace Cahill at the other side of the café, sitting down on the same type of chair that Danny was sitting on before getting up a few seconds ago, looking quite beautiful with her long wavy brown hair framing her face while wearing a light gray wispy-wool coat, a cream colored sweater, blue jeans, and black boots on her feet with a black handbag on the cloth-covered table.

Not knowing that Martin's date with Grace is at the same café where Danny was asking to a witness of Amanda Davis but still glad about that because this café is a very nice place to have a date, Danny smiled at Grace from where Danny is standing at but the smile turned into a frown when he saw a man that isn't Martin heading to the table where Grace is sitting at and sat down on the chair at the other side of the table and started talking to Grace who looked quite mad at the man who is talking to her.

Watching the act between Grace and a man who looked liked around his height, maybe a inch taller than him but he looked liked that he's a little older than Danny, Martin, and Grace but younger than Jack with short dark brown hair while some strays of it casually fell down his face and wearing a navy suit under his trench coat, Danny watched them having an argument that suddenly sounded very important to his ears.

"Jon, I am telling you right now. I didn't found her yet! Just give me a couple more weeks to find her before I handed her off to you." A few seconds later, "Grace, I already gave you a couple of weeks before this and now, you want more to find her." Grace nodded to that and said to him, "Yes." After hearing that, the man named Jon looked very furiously at her and asked her, "Is this about Fitzgerald?! Are you becoming closer to him even more?!"

"What? Is he talking about Martin?" thought Danny when he heard the last name while staring at Grace's livid face staring straight into Jon's face and answered his question by saying to him, "Don't dare talk about Martin like that! You don't know him expect the info you got about him on a piece of paper!"

After hearing that, the look on Jon's aged face got even more furious than before and asked her, "So, are you falling in love with him? Aren't you?"

The moment she heard that, Grace's cheeks flushed pink when Jon asked her that and said to him, "Yes, I am. I kept falling in love with him when each day passes by and I am pretty sure that he is too." "Oh, God!" said Jon who looked like that he founded out that his ex-wife is moving on with life faster than he is. After hearing that 'Oh, God!' from him, Grace looked at Jon's face and said to him with a small smile on his face, "You are acting like that you founded out that Sally is moving on with life than you are, right?"

Jon didn't do anything to Grace about that and after watching a young waitress heading over to their table with menus in her arms and was about to give Grace and Jon one to look through at and pick their meals from, the waitress handed one to Grace and after saying 'thank you' to her with a smile on her face, the waitress quickly smiled at her when she handed one to Jon but Jon stopped her from giving her one by saying gently to the waitress, "I don't need one because I'm leaving right now, sorry." and getting up from his chair.

After getting himself from the chair, Jon looked at Grace whose hands were on the gold metal edges on the large menu while saying to her, "and Grace, I'm giving you a couple more weeks to find her, okay but this is the last straw before I get my hands really on this so don't mess it up, Grace."

In return, Grace told him whatever and turned to the waitress who was waiting for what else to happen and asking her kindly, "Can I leave one more menu here, please. It's for my boyfriend who might be here in a couple of minutes." Jon got really disgusted by that when he heard that and quickly left the café and moments later, the waitress smiled at Grace and said to her while leaving a menu on the unused plate, "Okay with that and I will come back in about ten minutes to get yours and your boyfriend's orders, fine with that?"

Grace smiled at the waitress for that and after the waitress smiled at her one more time before heading off inside, Danny saw Grace staring at him and giving him a 'not right, Danny. Had to do it later!' look on her face before getting off of her seat and headed inside for a few minutes before Martin get to the café to have that lunch date.

After seeing her walking away from him, Danny just stood there for a minute, thinking about what he just saw a few minutes ago. About this Jon and the thing between him and Grace. About the couple of weeks added of finding her. Who the hell is 'her'? About founding out that Grace felt the same way as Martin. They are really in love with each other. Danny knew about it all along from bugging Martin too much about it! But most importantly, why had they mentioned Martin way too much for the greater part of the conversation?

Are Grace and Jon trying to get something out of Martin to find the 'her'? Are they talking about Kim or some other woman that Martin dated? That shouldn't be a long list. Does Martin know about it? If not, this will really hurt the guy and might don't want to date women again!

Oh, from thinking about this, Danny felt that the weird feeling inside of him from last August is about to become true and like him, this will screw Martin Fitzgerald up too!
