When Eric and Don landed in Canada. They headed over to the Fairway Motel on Fallsview Blvd. After renting a room, Eric called his wife.
"Hello."
"Hi sweetheart. I know it's late there. But I just wanted you to know we arrived safely. Don and I are going to be staying at the Fairway Motel in Fallsview Niagara."
"Oh...sounds lovely. Just stay away from the Casino's and beautiful women." She laughed.
"No worries there love. I only love you. I promise to be home as soon as I can. Give the kids a kiss for me. Oh...and tell dad to watch Danny. Just incase he needs help with Griffin."
"Umm..okay."
"What's going on Mac?" What's with the umm..?"
"Well...I think daddy wanted to come down to Canada to meet up with you and Don."
*sighing*..."Tell him to stay with Danny Mac. Make sure he does."
"I'll try Eric. But you know daddy. Anyways I love you. See you soon and stay safe."
"I will Mac. I love you."
"I love you too Eric."
Hanging up the phone she called her dad.
Taylor home
"Hello."
"Hi dad I just heard from Eric. They landed safely."
"Good. What Motel are they at?"
"Umm..listen daddy. Eric would like you to stay in Miami. He said Danny may need your help with Griffin."
"With Griffin? I thought he was told to drop the case?"
"He was daddy. But you know Eric. He's got Officers following Griffin everywhere."
"I'm sure Danny is capable of watching Griffin. He doesn't need my help."
Mackenzie knew her dad needed answers from Jill Girrard, but she also knew Eric wanted to handle this case on his own.
"Listen Daddy. If you go to Canada. Who's going to help mom with MJ? I can't do it. Not with Eric gone now. Think of MJ he needs his papa right now. You and mom are the only ones he feels he has right now."
Mac knew his daughter was right. But he wanted answers, answers that couldn't wait.
"Please dad. Do it for Eric. Let him prove he can handle it on his own. Let him prove he can be like you daddy, you and Horatio."
"You're sneaking love. You really are. Fine I'll stay for now. But if they don't have her back here in two days. I'm flying down."
"Thanks daddy. I love you."
"Uhuh. I love you to brat. Bye."
Hanging up Stella laughed.
"She got you again didn't she?"
"Yeah she did. I don't know what it is with you Bonasera women. But you both seem to have the knack of getting your own way."
Wrapping her arms around him, she whispered...
"Aww...I feel all that stress surrounding your hard muscled body. It's driving me to love you...." As she stroked her tongue across his ear.
"You my love are a tease."
Picking her up in his arms, he carried her upstairs where he could drown her in his love, until she lay placid in his arms.
