CSI:NY...Don't forget to say Good-bye

Full Chap up at FF.Net
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Walking into his room he found his lovley wife with her hair spread across the pillows, and her silken gown showing him the need that she tried to keep hidden.

"Maaac....that was such a beautiful story you told our son. I can't wait till morning to write it all down in his baby book. How was your night Mac? You look tired.

Keeping his fevered eyes gazed directly on hers, he dropped his clothes to ground, watching as her eyes caressed his strong, powerful, body. God she could feel her soul shiver from their sensual energy that filled their room.

Stalking towards her he reached her side of the bed. She knew there would be talking between tonight. Without so much as a touch, so much as a word, he just admired her beautiful form gazing as her every inch of her womanly parts came to life, begging him without words to touch her, to kiss her, to caress her into endless throws of ecstacy.

Not wanting the passionate fire to end, Mac pulled her onto his lap facing her towards their mirror so she could see how their souls, their spirits affected each other without even a touch.

Inhaling her beautiful hair he whispered...."I missed you love. All day each thought was of you, your beauty, your warmth, your smile. All I could think of was coming home to your arms. Of loving you into the early morning light."

Slithering his hands down her silken gown, he watched as her eyes fell to closing.

"Sweetheart....keep your eyes open. I want you to see how your body responds to my touch, to my caress, to my sensual kiss."

Lifting the gown from her body, he admired her now bronzed goddess like body. Glowing from the softened light that came through their window. So lost in each other now as they joined their souls soaring high above. Back onto the clouds where they could hear the Angels sing as they loved each other once more.

Meanwhile....Sheldon headed into Brenda's room to check on her. As he walked in he found the bed empty and the water running from the shower. Wanting to make sure she was okay he opened the door and seen her beautiful form through the curtain.

"Is that you Sheldon?"

Trying to swallow the lump that had formed in his throat he said....

"It is Brenda. I just came to make sure you were okay."

Brenda could hear the shortness of breaths coming from Sheldon. She knew he was becoming sensually lost in her once more.

"You know Sheldon....there's room for two in here. I'd love some company as I'm feeling a little dizzy."

Hearing the seduction in her voice. Sheldon dropped his clothes and climbed in behind her. Leaning up against her ear he whispered...

"If at any time you feel the need to faint. Know that my arms are ready to catch you."

"Mmm....you know what Sheldon??? I think my body needs a full check up. I think it's best if we make sure all my important parts are working as good as they were before."

Stroking his hands down her thighs. Sheldon couldn't agree more.

"I don't want to take you here Brenda. You are still sore from your accident."

"I swear to you Sheldon. I'm fine. Please don't make me wait. I want to feel inside me. I want you give us another child. I want back what we lost."

No one understood that more then Sheldon. For that was the one secret she had kept from it. To have a child would be the most precious of gift he could recieve. Holding her gently against him, he loved her with passion, with tenderness, with care and as they were both ready to release their love into each other, his seed reached her womb. Her beautiful womb where the egg was waiting to be blessed with the most precious of love.

Both holding each other tight after their storm. Sheldon turned off the taps and carried her to their room. Laying her upon the sheets he whispered his love to her again, and again, until he had it embedded in her soul.

Do not hunt me down for the angst
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The following Day.

Ambulance on route to Mount Sinai Hospital

EMT 247 to Mount Sinai"

"Go ahead 247."

"We have a male victim approximetly 31 years of age. Three gunshot wounds to the upper chest. Victim has already crashed twice. Please have three untis of O Neg ready to go. We are shocking victim again, no response. Our time is at least four minutes before we arrive."

"10-4...we will have everything ready when the victim arrives."

Running around the Trauma room the nurses had everything ready and prepared to go. They knew this was going to be a tough one. Detectives always were. Forever in the line of fire. Very few ever made it out of the O.R alive. Hearing the Ambulance pull up they ran out and found the EMT performing manual CPR.

"How long...."

"Ten minutes doctor. We've already brought him back twice. He's lost at least three units of blood. All three bullets are in the upper left chest."

Racing into the Trauma room they began working to save the young Detective who had his whole life ahead of him.

Outside in the waiting room he cried. He was covered in his best friends blood. God how could breaking up a fight in the bar gone so wrong. None of this made sense. All they were doing was having a fun night out.

Coming through the ER doors Mac and the team ran up.

"What happened Don? What the hell happened with Danny?"

Mac knew there was one hell of a story to be told. Waiting patiently Don began......

Eight hours earlier.

"Hey man...wanna grab a drink. It's been a long day."

"Sure Danno. Give me five to shower and change. I'll meet ya upstairs."

Heading upstairs Danny seen Mac and Adam laughing .

"Hey Danny...what's up for tonight?"

"Hey Sheldon. Don and I are heading out for a few drinks. Wanna come?"

"I'll have to pass tonight. I have a date with DNA and trace."

"Eww...lucky you. See ya man."

Walking into the Breakroom Danny asked....

"Hey Mac, Adam. Don and I are heading out. Would you like to come?"

"Mmm...no thanks. I think Mac and I are planning a nice quiet evening with the DB's we just brought in."

"Nice!!! Have fun kids."

"You ready Danno?"

"Yeah man...let's go."

When they arrived at the bar they sat down and ordered a couple beers.

"Hey Danno what are you doing this year for Christmas? Are you spending it with us at Stella and Mac's?"

"Yeah. I'll most likely spend it bugging you guys."

Don laughed. It had been a tradition for these boys to spend each Christmas with Pizza and beer through the years. In reality there actually wasn't much these two didn't do together. So close they were. More brothers then best friends. It was going to seem strange spending it with a large family.

"Damn Donnie look at time. It's three in the morn'n already. Let's call it a night."

Leaving a tip for the waitress they headed towards the exit when they seen the fight break out. Running over to break it up Don tossed the guy up against the wall. While Danny pulled the other suspect of the other guy. Leaning him against the wall he told him not to move. Turning to reach for his cuff's the guy brought his elbow back and smashed it into Danny's face. Then pulling for his weapon he fired three shots into Danny's chest.

With other Officers already on scene they had the two suspects in custody. While Don reached down over Danny.

"Listen to me Danno. I need you to breathe. Come on Danno, breathe."

Starting CPR Don couldn't get any pulse. The more he pumped on Danny's chest the more blood that spewed from his mouth and chest. Hearing the EMT's pull up they ran over and pushed Don aside. While they worked on stablizing Danny. The other Officers tried to question Don.

"What happened Don? We need a statement."

"Fuck your statement. I need to go with Danny. Get the hell out of my way."

Back to the Present time...The Explaination

"Danny and I were at the bar. We were kicking back a few drinks like we do every friday night. As we were leaving we noticed a group of four guys arguing to each other. When Danny and I seen the fists begin to fly we tried to break it up.

I had the first suspect against the wall. Danny had the second. I remember Danny saying...Don't move. But it all happened so fast Mac. Danny reached for his cuff's, the guy reached for his gun and fired. Three shots, right into Danny's chest."

"Are you telling me Danny didn't check for weapons while he had him pinned to the wall?"

"I don't know Mac. It all happened so fast. I can't even remember how many people, or witnesses, were there. The only thing I remember is Danny going down. That......it...God!!!!"

Don broke again. Hearing his heart broken sobs Stella wrapped her arms around him.

"Shh!!! Come on Don. It's okay. Danny's going to make it, he's strong. He'll pull through."

"Excuse me....Det.Taylor?"

"Yes. How is he?"

Shaking his head he whispered...."I'm sorry."

Breaking out of Stella's arms Don ran into the Trauma room.

"Nooooooooooooooo...it can't be. Nooooo...."

Pounding on Danny's chest as he tried to get him to breathe as the nurse called for Security. Watching as the blood poured from Danny's opened chest as Don continued to pound. Running into the room Mac seen what Don was doing. The whole Trauma room looked like a blood bath.

"Dooooooooooon...stop this...right now Don, he's gone."

Grabbing Danny in his arms, he crawled with him into the corner of the room. Laying him against him, rocking him, talking to him, crying, telling him to wake up.

"It's okay Danno. It's okay man. I have you. I have you man. We are going to get through this Danno. You and I. We are going to bring you home."

As Mac seen Security come through the door, he told them to back off.

"Get out!!!! Everyone out now!!!

With everyone out of the room Mac took a few steps towards Don. Trying to clear the tears from his own eyes, so he could focus on Don was difficult. The heart wretching sobs alone were breaking Mac's heart.

"Don....I need you to listen to me. Look at me Don. You need to put Danny back on the bed Don. Do you here me? How about the two of us put him back on the bed."

Looking up from Danny's neck into Mac's eyes he shook his head....

"No Mac....I can...he's not dead. Look at him Mac, he's going to be fine. He's sleeping."

Mac knew Don was lost. He had seen it before several times during his Marine days. The denial, the want to believe that nothing happened.

"Please Don...just take my hand. Please...."

As Mac stretched out his hand to Don, he squeezed Danny all the closer to him. Mac knew there could be very little blood left in Danny's body. For it was all over the floor and Don's clothes. Knowing there was going to be no reasoning with Don he walked out and asked the doctor to bring a sedative to him.

"Are you kidding. You're not a doctor. I'll have to do it."

"Listen...if anyone goes near my Detective right now he's going to freak out all the more."

"I'm sorry. I have to come in with you. I'm sure you can control your Detective."

Mac was getting angry. He knew the doctor didn't understand the kind of pain and suffering Don's mind and soul were in. Deep down Mac knew the once he reentered that room with the doctor that would be it for Don's sanity.

"Fine. But you stay out of my way. Understood?"

"Of course. I understand."

Walking back into the room the doctor tried desperatly not to lose his lunch. He had seen alot of things in him time. But never nothing like this. It was like a scene out of Blood Fest. Trying not to slip on the blood, the doctor waited quietly in the corner.

"Hey Don...it's okay. I'm going to come over and comfort you and Danny okay? I'm going to hold you both tight. Don't worry Don. I won't try and take Danny from you, I promise."

As moved in, he knealt down onto the blood and wrapped his arms tightly around Don and Danny. God Danny still felt warm against him. Almost alive. Like he wasn't ready to leave or say good bye. Once Mac had Don's trust he motioned the doctor with his eyes to come over and inject Don with the sedative.

Just as the doctor neared him, Don seen him from the corner of his eye. Kicking out with Danny away from Mac, Mac slid into the table, cutting open his head. Trying to clear the blood from his eyes, he had had enough. Crawling back over to Don, they wrestled. With fist flying Mac was finally able to get Don into a lock.

"Now!!! Do it now."

Giving Don a large dose he was passed out in a matter of minutes.

"He's out Detective. You need to get that head checked."

"Don't worry about my damn head. Get my detective to a room. Keep him sedated till I tell you otherwise. Is that understood?"

"Of course." Calling for help the doctors lifted Don onto a gurney and transferred him to a room.

As Sheldon and Adam watched from outside the window they all realized it was going to be months, or maybe even years before Don healed.

"How many stitches Mac?"

"Six. I'll be fine. Has anyone checked on Don yet?"

"Yeah. He's still out. God Mac....how are we going to help him heal from this? He's so lost."

"We'll get him through it Sheldon. One step at a time. How are you doing Angell?"

"I'll be fine Mac. I'm more worried about Don."

"Listen...why don't you two head home. I'm going to stay with Don."

"You sure Mac? I don't mind staying."

"No. You go ahead Adam and Sheldon. I'll see you tomorrow. Spend some time with Brenda, fill her in on what happened. But cautiously. You don't want to upset her to much.

Walking into Don's room he sat in the chair reading a book while Angell sat on his bed.

As Angell looked up she found Don watching her with tear filled eyes.

"Don!!! How are you feeling?"

Closing his eyes again as his tears fell, he laid on his opposite side away from her.

"Don...please talk to me...please Don."

"Shh....he's out again Angell. He'll be in and out for a while."

With Don still in and out the doctor walked in.

"Excuse me Detective. We'd just like to let you know that we will be keeping your Detective sedated for the night. So if you like you can head home, or we have some greens you can borrow if you'd like to get a shower."

Looking at himself Mac forgot he was covered in blood.

"Thanks. I'll grab a shower here and borrow those greens. I don't want to leave Don right now."

"Sure no problem. Just follow me and we'll get you cleaned up."

Once Mac was showered and changed he called Stella to see how she was doing with Mitch.

"Hello."

"Hi love. How you doing sweetheart? And how's our Mitch?"

"We're good Mac. We miss you though. Any idea when you'll be coming home?"

"Should be in the morning love. They're keeping Don in overnight. Angell is here with me. She's doing okay."

"Good. Give her love. Tell her I'm here for her if she needs to talk."

"I will love. Night."

"Night Mac, I love you."

"Love you too."

Hanging up the phone Mac headed back into the room.

When Sheldon arrived at home he found Brenda sleeping on the couch. Gently shaking her she woke.

"Mm..hi hon. What are you doing home? I thought you, Mac and Adam were working a case?"

"We were babe. But we were called to the Hospital. I need you to listen to me. Danny was at a bar tonight with Don. There was a fight. A fight that Don and Danny had to break up. In the process one of the suspects pulled a gun and shot Danny three times through the chest. He died."

Brenda teared up. She couldn't believe it.

"Oh God. How's Don taking it? He must be a mess."

"He is brenda. He flipped out in the Trauma room. Really bad. He pulled Danny from the bed and tried to revive him. It was a very messy situation. Mac had to take him down, he took six stitches to the head."

"Ohh...poor Don. How'd they get him under control?"

"After Mac had him in hold, they sedated him. Mac and Angell are still with him."

"How's Stella doing? Was she there?"

"For a little while. Then Mac had her go home with Mitch."

"This is so much to take in Sheldon. Don has a very long road ahead of him. He and Danny were like brothers. This is a shame. Maybe we should get dressed and check on Stella for Mac. Then I'll call the Hospital and get us some information from the on duty nurse."

"Are you sure Brenda? It's very late. Stella may be sleeping."

"Sheldon..trust me hon. Sleep is the last thing she'll be doing."

Nodding that he understood. He helped her dress and they head out to Stella's.
 
Wow, I didnt expect that one. But I love how you write angst so i wont hurt you :p I cant wait for them to get to stella's and I love how Brenda is part of the family :)
 
*nod nod*

*sticks out tongue at Linda* You might be his elf but I'm his Christmas Angel so there hehehe
 
As Stella sat with Mitch on the couch she turned on the video cassette they had made for Mitch.

"Are you ready Mitch? Watch your Uncle Danny."

She whispered as tears filled her eyes.

When Danny appeared on screen Mitch's eyes went wide.

"Hey Mitch...it's your Uncle Danny welcoming you into this big New York world. I'm going to be your coach. I'll help you get through the first 20 or so years of your life. Shh...you know why? Cause your poor daddy is going to need all the help he can get.

I'll be the one to teach you sports. Basketball, baseball, hockey all that cool boy stuff. I'll be one of the coolest Uncles you'll be able to come too if you need help, or want to talk about girls."

Mitch was flailing himself, he could hear his Uncles voice fill their home. As Stella was softly crying, she heard the knock. Getting up with Mitch she wiped her eyes, putting the player on pause.

"Oh...hey guys. It's late...what brings you here?"

"Aww...you do Stel. Look at you. Come her honey. Shedon take the babe."

Wrapping Mitch in his arms he walked him to the couch and sat down.

"Cool....isn't that the tape we made Mitch?"

"Yeah...yeah it is..." she sobbed.

"Come here Stella."

Wrapping her in a warm hug Brenda allowed her to soak her shoulder.

"Shh..it's okay Stella. I know it's going to be hard not having Danny with us anymore. I knew you needed company. Let's go sit."

Sitting down Stella turned the video off.

"Did you want coffee?"

"You sit Stella I'll make it. You just relax."

While Brenda pattered around their home, Sheldon cooed Mitch.

"He's so big Stella. Just think soon he'll be sitting, crawling, and walking."

"I know. Don't forget the talking. I'm sure he'll have lots to say."

"Aww..come on Stel. I know it's hard to lose someone you love. It's even harder how unfair life is. But you need to remember that Danny's watching us right now. How do you think he'd feel if he seen you so heartbroken like this."

"I know. It's just you don't understand. They planned to so much with Mitch. Now all that has been stolen from Danny and from Mitch. It's just not right so close to the Holiday's to lose someone in your family. This is one hurt that's going to take a long time to heal."

"That's true Stella. But you need to remember all the wonderful times we had together with Danny. The happy times. The times where we made the most memories. That's what counts."

Pulling Stella in closer Sheldon leaned her against his shoulder, quietly holding her through her tears.

Back at the Hospital Angell had fallen alseep in the chair beside Mac. Looking up from his book Mac noticed Don was awake.

"Don...hey. How you feeling?"

Tearing up again he shrugged his shoulders. Trying to sit up he felt the rush of nausea.

"Just take it slow Don. You've been sedated. Did you need me to get you something?"

Still not saying a word. Don finally made his way to the washroom. Coming back out he seen the Nurse changing his bloody sheets.

"Listen Don. I'm going to take you down to the showers. I have some clean clothes here for you that Angell brought from your home."

Grabbing the clothes and towel he followed Mac down the hall.

"I'll just wait out here for you. Take your time."

While Don allowed the spray to hit him, he seen Danny's blood swirling down the drain. Disappearing forever through the pipes like he had. God how was he going to survive without his partner, best friend and brother. Why couldn't it have been him instead?

Stepping out of the shower, he dressed into his clothes and walked out to Mac.

"You feeling a little more Steady Don?"

"Steady?? What's to be steady about Mac. I lost my best friend. My brother. A piece of our family gone, forever."

"I know Don. I know how badly it hurts. I know the pain is tearing you up inside. But I promise you...Stella, Mitch, Angell, Sheldon, Adam, myself. We are all going to help you through this. I know right now you feel like nothing or no one can help. But we can."

Walking towards Don, he embraced him with tears.

"I swear to you Don. Stella, Mitch and I will never allow you to feel lost. We will never allow you to feel that you are alone. We love you Don. We're you're family too. Take from us the comfort you need right now. For none of us are going to leave you."

Walking back to the room Don found Angell still sleeping in the chair. Picking her up in his arms, he carried her to the bed and laid her on her side. Crawling in with her he cried into her hair, waking her.

Turning herself to face him, she caressed the teardrops from his eyes.

"Don't cry Don. Try not to cry. I'm right here for you. I promise you Don. I'll never ever leave you. I'll always be here to help you heal.

Kissing his tear stained face Mac watched and quietly left the room.

"Excuse me Detective. We need you to sign off on your Detective."

"Of course. Thanks. I'm going to head home for now. He should be fine. Call me if anything changes."

"I will Detective. We'll be releasing him in a few hours."

Nodding that he understood Mac headed home to see his family.

When Mac got home he found his wife and son sound asleep on Sheldon.

"Ohh...hey Mac? How's Don?"

"Not good...he's just not coping with Danny's death at all. Where's Brenda?"

"She had to go into work this morning. Stella and Mitch fell asleep about an hour ago. Stella's not doing well either. She watched the video about twenty times last night. She said she needed to hear Danny's voice."

Mac sighed...he knew it was going to be a very long time for any of them to get over it. Walking over he picked up his son first. Carrying him to the bedroom he laid him in his crib.

Coming back out he picked up his wife. After placing under the covers he walked back out.

"Sheldon I need you to get to Station before Don is released. Tell Sid to get to the body over to the Mortuary. The last thing we need is Don causing a scene at the Crime Lab."

"Sure Mac I'll get right on that. Any idea when the Memorial will be?"

"In the next couple days. I'll let you know where and when."

"Okay. I'll see you later Mac."

After Don left Mac removed his greens and climbed into bed with his wife.

"Mmac...how's Don?"

"He's not good love. He's in alot of pain, and denial. we are going to have to keep a good eye on him over the next few days."

"Maybe we should have him stay with us?"

"Angell is with him. I told her if she has any problems to call. I'll also stop by Don's place today and check on him."

"I still can't believe Mac. How could such a sensless shooting happen?"

Wrapping her in his arms Mac had been wondering that himself. He also knew that questioning Don would have to wait. For he was in no condition to answer any questions right now.

Once Don had his release papers from the Hospital Brenda stopped in to see him.

"Hey Don. Are you going to be okay at home?"

Still not talking to anyone, he nodded his head and walked into the washroom.

"I have a script for you Angell. Don's to take one every four hours. If he refuses make him take it. Even if you have to break it up in something. Over the next twenty-four hours it's going to be touch and go. He's still got alot of hurt and pain in him."

"You don't think he'd? Do you?"

"I don't think so. He seems very strong for that. But I could be wrong. Just keep an eye on him. If he becomes to much for you to handle call Mac."

"I will. Thanks Brenda. For everything."

"You're welcome. I'll see you soon."

"You ready to go home Don?"

Grabbing his bloody clothes, he walked towards the elevator quietly.
