i skipped the story up to the weekend the messer's go down to see Stella

Beginning of The Weekend

The rest of the week was torture for Mac. He still talked with Stella every night before they went to bed. The Messer's stopped by Mac's office at 6 in the morning before they headed off to see her.

"You guys have a good weekend with Stella. Give her my love too."

"Will do Mac," Danny smiles.

"Thanks again for letting us go down Mac."

"It's really not a problem at all you guys."

They nod and left heading towards the airport.

Down in New Orleans Stella had just woke up. Recieving a call from Danny telling Stella they were on their way down. And she told them what the address was to her apartment, her not having to go to work until noon.

Stella goes to make breakfast. When she finishes making her coffee she sits at her table. Fiddling with her phone, debating if she should Mac yet. A few seconds of thinking and she says he's probably up already anyways.

"Taylor," Mac answers, sounding a little tired.

"Hey Mac. Did you sleep at all last night?"

"Um... of course I did," he lies.

"Mac?"

"Okay, I didn't. It's hard sleeping knowing I'm not going to see your face when I wake up."

"I'm sorry Mac."

"Don't be, we are going to make this relationship work."

"And how do you plan on that if you don't get some sleep?"

"I don't know. But all I do know is next time I see you I have to talk to you."

"Why can't you tell me over the phone?"

"It's not something I want to do. Please, just let me tell you next weekend."

"Okay. So what is my man doing now?"

"Paperwork," he frowns. "You know if you were here I wouldn't probably be doing paperwork."

"Mac, are you trying to make me feel guilty?" Stella sighs.

"No Stell. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to put you in that position."

"It's fine," she sighs. "I should get going."

"Okay, I'll talk to you around noon."

"Fine," she states and hung up.

Stella lied down on her couch, and went back to sleep.

A few hours passed and Stella quickly jumped up to a knocking on the door. She quickly went to open it.

"Stella!" Lucy shouted, squirming in her mom's arms.

"Hey kiddo," she kissed the top of her head. "Come inside," she let's the Messer's enter.

"Nice place you got Stell," Lindsay smiled.

"Yeah, don't worry I got the bags," Danny mumbled.

"What's wrong with your husband?"

"Apparently he isn't a plane person," Lindsay grins.

"I'm perfectly fine, aren't I Lucy," Danny smiles, until Lucy shook her head.

"Your not normal," she grins, making the women laugh.

"Always picking on me. You must get that from your mother."

"I love my mommy."

"Speaking of love, Mac wanted to give his to you."

"Can we talk about something else?" Stella sighed.

"Stella, what happened? You didn't break up with him did you?" Lindsay asked half shouting.

"Calm down Linds. I didn't. I called him and he was making me feel guilty for being down here."

"Here I thought me and Lindsay's relationship was complex," Danny shook his head.

"I bet he didn't mean it, he hasn't slept all week. Yesterday I swore he was making passes at Don."

"Really?" Stella smirked.

Danny then spoke up. "Yeah, at the end of the day Don told me if Mac calls him Stella one more time he was going to arrest him."

"I'm still debating if I should be down here, that far away from Mac. It's not good for his health."

Lindsay shrugs, "I don't know Stell. You should just do whatever your feeling."

"That's the problem there Linds, I don't know what I'm feeling. I mean when Mac's down here I love it, but when I go to work I love it too."

"He should move down here."

"I don't think that will solve any problems," Stella frowned. "Mac loves it up in New York."

"Stella... Mac loves you more. He would want to do what's good for both of you guys."

"But what if what's good for both of us is us not being together."

"Stella. You can't honestly think that you and Mac being together is a bad idea."

"I just don't know what to think."

Lucy then looks up at Stella, "I like you and Uncle Mac," she frowns.

Stella patted her head, "I know you do." Stella frowns.

"Just think about it before you do something rash."

"I've been waiting for a relationship with Mac for the longest time. I don't want him out of my life, but maybe it'll just be better."

"You know that will tear him apart."

"I agree with Lindsay. You guys are meant to be together."

"You can't do that to him Stell. You just can't."

"Your right, I'm sorry."

"I hope so. Don't mess with his feelings like that. You love him and anything can work between you two."

"Oksy, it was dumb of me to think that."

"Very. So when are we going to your work?"

"In like an hour, I got to be there by noon. And beware of my partner named Riley."

"Why?" Danny quickly asked.

"I promised him I would find him a woman since I have Mac."

"Great, I'm going to have a guy flirting with my wife."

Stella laughs, "That won't be a problem, it might actually be the other way around."

"What's that supposed to mean Stell?" Lindsay asked.

"Trust me, you'll find out when we get there," Stella winks. "Anyways, I should go get dressed," she nods and went in her bedroom.

"I don't even want to know," Danny shook his head.

"You have nothing to worry about, because I'm married to you Danny."

"Because that is such an accomplishment," he grunts.

"You'll be fine," Lindsay pats his cheek.

Okay, so yeah nothing bad is going to happen in Mac and Stella's relationship I promise... just wanted a tad bit more angst
