Family is a complicated matter

Right best thought it'd be a good idea to write the father and daughter conversation! This chapter will also include the wedding.

-----------------------------------------

She had just spoken to her dad three days ago but she was so nervous to tell him when she was getting married. Ring ring... ring ring. "Hello?"

"Dad? It's Becca."

"I only have one daughter, so I guessed it was you. You alright?"

"Yeah. Danny and I have set a date. 6 weeks from..." Looking at Danny who mouths Friday. "Friday. I know it's quite near but do you think you could come here and give me away?"

"I would love to. I wouldn't miss it for the world. I shall be there a few days before."

"Can you bring Calleigh too? I want her to come."

"I'll ask, she'll most likely come. She's been dying to see you again. Well... See you then."

"Ok. Bye." Putting the phone down and sitting back next to Danny. "Phew!"

"Hard work?" Danny said as he played with Claire's feet.

"Shut up! I don't know but I felt really nervous asking him."

"Probably in the back of your mind you always had the idea of Mac giving you away at your wedding."

"Yeah. Yeah I did." Trying to put on a happy face but her sad eyes ave her away. "It's just that with my dad back in my life, it's just that Mac has always been in my life."

"Hey!" Giving her a quick one armed hug. "Mac'll understand. He's know you too long!"

"True." Getting up and walking to the kitchen. "Coffee?"

"Yeah. You drinking it again?"

Laughing, "Yeah. I've got the taste for it again."

6 Weeks later

Becca is getting ready in her old room at Mac's with the help from her sister and Stella. "Oh my God! I am so nervous."

Stella rolled her eyes at Sarah who just smiled and said, "Baby sister you'll be fine. You are marrying possibly the most gorgeous man in the city. Well apart from my most gorgeous men in my life." Looking down at her newly arrived baby boy, Thomas.

"Sarah I dunno if I can breathe in this dress when I see Danny." Looking down at her white, corseted wedding gown.

Stella walks over to her and holds her shoulders, "Becca, you'll be fine. You look absolutely beautiful. I wouldn't be surprised if Danny stops breathing when he sees you." Making all of them laugh until a knock came at the door. Stella opened it to reveal Horatio carrying a giggling Claire.

"You ladies ready?" Glancing in the room and when he sees Becca, his eyes widen. "Oh! Becca! You look beautiful." Looking at his granddaughter. "Doesn't your mommy look pretty?" Only making her giggle more, causing Horatio to smile. "Ready?"

"Yeah." Becca breathed looking slightly nervous. "Yes." Courage seeming to take over her. "Let's go." Walking after Horatio.

At the church

Danny is waiting at the front of the church with Don as his best man. He was pacing at the front occasionally looking up at the church's door. "Danno!" Making Danny jump. "You're burning a hole in the floor. She'll be here."

Five minutes later, Becca's wedding car pulled up outside the church. "Deep breath." Said her father. "You'll be fine." As they got out of the car, Becca began to feel a lot better as she walked towards the door.

"Here we go." Flack said as he looked back at the door which unfortunately made Danny even more nervous who looked back and saw Becca's sister walking down the aisle with her son who was followed by Stella carrying his baby girl. Suddenly the Wedding March begins and then Becca is escorted down the aisle by her father and this sight made him smile. Within a short period of time they were pronouced "Man and wife." The two of them had the biggest smiles in the whole of the church as they walked back up the aisle with their daughter in tow.

-------------------------------------------

That bit over! Happy ending? Lovely ending? Want more excitment? I'm thinking of something eventful to happen at the party!
 
I like the part about Danny playing with Claire's feet. That sounds adorable and I can see him doing that. :lol: Good chapter. :)
 
OMG! It's been five days since I last wrote! Thought I'd best get on!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Ladies and gentlemen..." Flack had been given control of the microphone and gesturing his hand towards the door, "May I present Mr and Mrs Daniel Messer including the gorgeous Claire Messer." A round of applause followed as the newly married couple entered the reception venue hand-in-hand with Danny carrying their daughter. They made their way to the dance floor where Danny handed Claire to Flack with a wink. "Ladies and gentlemen... the couple's first dance as husband and wife." The song was (Everything I do.) I do it for you. The two slowly moved together with probably the biggest smiles in the room after a while Stella and Mac joined them, along with Hawkes and Lindsay and, making everyone laugh, Flack began to waltz around the room with a giggling Claire. The party lasted late into the night, luckily none of the team got called away anywhere.

_________________________________________________

Danny was carrying Becca in his arms "Over the threshold" even though Becca argued he had carried her over the threshold a few times before. Claire had been placed in the care of his parents while the two were able to have their wedding night together. "Well Mrs Messer, how are you enjoying our wedded life?"

"Mr Messer I am thoroughly enjoying. Give me until tomorrow when the hangover kicks in!" Kissing him on the cheek! "What are you waiting for?" He mouthed "OH!" and carried her into the bedroom. (STOP!! I won't go into details and would like to say I am sorry for what I am about to do.)

___________________________________________________________

It was close to dawn when there was a phone call at their apartment causing the newlyweds to groan at the loudness of it. Danny answers, "It better be important."

"Danny, it's your mom."

"Hey mom! Don't phone so early. Is Claire alright?"

"That's what I'm calling you about." Danny sits up in bed and Becca listening to his side of the conversation especially when he mentioned their daughter.

"Ma, what's wrong?" Frowning slightly.

"Last night..." Croaking her words a bit more. "Last night some people broke into the house, knocked your father and I out and when we woke up and checked on Claire..." Crying down the phone.

"MA! MA! WHAT'S HAPPENED TO CLAIRE?" Basically screaming down the phone causing Becca to cry with worry.

"They took her. They took her Danny but they left a note. It said you and only you were to meet a familar in Central Park near Strawberry Field's to discuus what'll happen to your daughter. I phoned the police and they're doing everything they can. You are not to get involved according to the man in charge."

"Who's... Who's...." Trying to fight back his tears. "Who's in charge?"

"Mac Taylor."

"Good. He'll find her safe and sound. Ma I gotta go." Putting the phone down and turning to Becca.

"Danny... What's happened to Claire?"

"She's been kidnapped and I gotta meet the kidnapper. Just me."

"Oh Danny! Find her and the men who have taken her! When you find them let me kill them!"

"I want to kill them too but Mac has to concentrate on finding her first. Ok?" Cupping her face in her hands and kissing the end of her nose. "Let's go to the lab and see what news they have." Nodding at Becca who nodded back with silent tears.

---------------------------------------------------

OMG I am so sorry to do that! The idea popped into my head and thought I'd get it out of the way! :(

I'm actually knuckling down to write as I am ill home from work with a mouth infection! Well it has been... 9 days since I last posted! :eek: Here we go.

------------------------------------------------

The newlyweds reached the crime lab as fast as they could and went straight to Mac's office to find Mac pouring over all the evidence he could find and talking to Danny's parents, who were beside themselves with grief at losing their granddaughter.

"Ma? Dad?" Spoke Danny hugging them both at the same time.

"Mac?" Becca croaked through her tears and moving quickly to him as he pulled her into a tight hug. "Find her. Please?"

"Becca... I will." Not letting her go as his niece cried uncontrollably.

Danny spoke, "Ma, Dad we don't blame you. You do know that."

"Thank you. We did until you just said. We are SO sorry." Simon said as his wife cried into his shoulder.

Becca had looked up from Mac's chest still with tears falling down her cheeks, "Simon... Thank you. We don't blame you one little bit. The only people I blame are the ones who broke into yours." Moving over to her new mother-in-law and hugging her. She looked over at Danny and nodded at him. "Don't you have somewhere to be?"

"Oh yeah. Mac I am gonna go." Mac just nodded. "Bec, I won't be long." He kissed his mom on the cheek, kissed his wife and shook hands with his father and Mac. "I'll be alright." Walking quickly out of the office, ignoring all the apologies from fellow workers.

____________________________________________________

He arrived at Strawberry Fields with a bad feeling he wasn't going to collect his daughter but meet the evil person who took her. He looked around for a familar face but didn't see any. He was there a good hour before he saw a face that he knew. A face he did not want to see and did not expect to see. Sonny! He was out of prison. Danny could only mouth "no!" as the Tanglewood leader moved towards him with the biggest smirk on his face. "You! You didn't!" Moving fast towards him with his fist raised ready to strike.

"Uh uh!" Began Sonny. "I wouldn't. There's a gun pointing right at your back." Danny lowered his fist. "That's better. Let's walk and talk." Walking in the direction he just came from.

"Why, Sonny? She's my little girl."

"Just a little pay back."

"To me? You put my brother in a coma, isn't that enough?"

"No from the man who put me away both times."

"Mac?" Shaking his head at him. "Taking his great-niece but contacting my parents makes it sound like you're targeting my family more than anything."

"But Mac is your family now." Glancing at his wedding ring. "Married to his niece aren't you? Now that means your family."

"But Sonny... Why my baby? She needs her mommy. Please give her back." Giving him the most pleading face.

"You'll have her back soon but first I need you to do something for me. I need you to come back her same time tomorrow with Mac and your wife. You'll then have your daughter once I'm finished."

"Finished what?" Eyeing him suspiciously.

"You'll see." Walking away from Danny who was left confused.

----------------------------------------------------------

ARGH!!! That took me ages to write that! ARGH!!! I wanted to bring back the Sonny character cos he's such a good character! Dunno how I released him from jail, I just did! lol!

10 Things I Hate About You

I hate the way you talk to me
and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car.
I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots
and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick
it even makes me rhyme.
I hate the way you're always right.
I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh
even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it when your not around
and the fact that you didn't call
but mostly I hate the way I don't hate you
not even close, not even little bit, not even at all.
 
My memory sucks. I really don't remember Sonny too much. I remember someone putting Louie in a coma, but I can't remember what the guy looked like. I barely remember what Louie looked like. :lol: anyway, good chapter. I hope you feel better soon. :)
 
Oh alright I'll fix it! Well... I'll carry on I dunno if it'll be fixed though!

-------------------------------------------------------

Danny walked slowly through the lab back to Mac's office defeated. How was he going to tell them it was Sonny Sassone? A soft voice broke through his thoughts, "Danny?" Looking up to see his wife with a pleading face.

He puts an arm around her shoulders as a comfort for him, "We should talk to Mac in private." Steering her to the office all the three of them sat down as Danny began to recall his story. Mac growled as Danny mentioned Sonny's name. "... He wants to meet us all tomorrow." Danny left out the part that Sonny wanted to seek his revenge on Mac. "Same time as I did today."

______________________________________________________________

As the three of them walked cautiously through Central Park to where they were meeting Sonny. Danny looks at Becca, "You alright?"

"Just nervous at what could happen." Looking very nervous.

"It'll be fine." Lied Danny. Putting his arm around her shoulders and kissing her hair. "We'll get her back." They continued to walk and were soon met with the face of Sonny Sassone. And he was holding their daughter, Becca made forward to get her but Sonny shook his head causing Becca to cry.

"Now, now. You will get her but not right now." Looking at Mac now. "Well... Detective Taylor. Long time no see."

"Sonny... Didn't know you could stoop this low." Nodding towards Claire.

Sonny nods towards Mac, a gunshot rings out but no one is hit. Danny tackles Sonny and gets his daughter away from him passing her to Becca, who runs back the way they came, to the car. Punches were flying through the air as Danny was beating Sonny up and Mac trying to stop him. "DANNY! DANNY! STOP THIS!" Finally pulling him off and grabbing Sonny by the scruff of the neck. "You are most definately never gonna see my face again." Growled Mac in his ear and dragging him away.

In the car

Becca is sitting in the backseat crying with delight that she had her daughter back but also scared that the gunman would come for her or any of her family. She could see Danny approaching the car a bit worse for wear and Mac dragging Sonny with him. She clambered out of the car towards her husband, still clutching her daughter to her chest. "Oh Danny!" Falling into his arms. "I'm glad you're alright. Who shot at us?"

"No idea." Taking his daughter from her and kissing Claire on the cheek. "We got our girl back. That's important." Cop cars started to arrive, Flack gets out of the first car. "AH! The cavalery has arrived!"

"Shut up Messer. You all alright?" Walking over to Mac and handcuffing Sonny. They just nod. "I'll get rid of this scum."

"Thanks Mac." Becca looking up from her husband's chest.

"Becca... I'd do anything for you... For you both. Now enjoy your week off while you can."

Shaking his hand. "Thanks boss." Then replacing back round Becca's shoulders and turning to her. "Let's go home." Walking back to the car.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Well that's that dilemma over and done with! Lol! I'm on writer's block mode atm! So might be a while til I write again. Ideas welcome!
