Yeh.... Good luck with keeping Danny in that hospital :lol:
Do you really think that would be possible? :lol:

Stella parked her car in front of the hospital. The whole way to the hospital Stella had thought of how she could tell Danny. He wasn’t totally recovered and she thought it wouldn’t be really conductive. Stella was sure that there wasn’t really a perfect way to tell someone that his girlfriend had been kidnapped.
Before entering to Danny’s room, Stella took a deep breath. It would be hard for her, but even harder for Danny. She wanted to make it as bearable as possibly, if that was possible in this case.
“Hey, Stella. You were at Lindsay’s apartment?”
“Yes, I was.” Stella said seriously.
“I was right, wasn’t I? Something happened to her. Tell me.”
“Danny, whatever I will tell you, promise to stay calm, okay?”
“Tell me. I need to know.” Danny became excited. He now sat in his bed instead of lying.
“Danny, I don’t know how to start. Eh… Lindsay didn’t show up at work this morning. So Mac decided to go to her apartment with Hawkes. She wasn’t at home.”
“Where is she?” Danny was still excited.
“We don’t know. We found traces of housebreaking on her window.” Stella decided not to tell him about the wood with the blood.
“You mean she was kidnapped?” Stella could see the shock on his face.
“We think so. But we have a part of a print. Mac analyzes it. Perhaps we have a suspect.”
“I need to get out of here. I can’t stay.”
Danny tried to get out of his bed, but Stella held him back.
“You don’t help her if you break out of the hospital. You have to recover first.”
“Stella, don’t you understand? I can’t sit here and wait until she is ….” He couldn’t finish. Tears filled his eyes and he wasn’t able to speak.
“We’ll find her. Believe me.”
“I wish I could. I want to help. I have to.” Again he tried to stand up, this time with success. He took some clothes out of the wardrobe and changed his clothes. Stella got up to Danny in order to take him back to his bed.
“Don’t try to stop me, Bonasera. I get out of here and find Lindsay.” With that he opened the door and left. Stella stood there for a moment, not believing what happened. Then she ran after him, but Danny was already gone. She pulled out her cell phone to call Mac.

Sheldon Hawkes stood in the CSI lab as his phone rang.
“Hawkes? Where is Mac?” It was Stella.
“What’s wrong?”
“I told Danny. He escaped from the hospital to find Lindsay on his own.”
“He did what?” Hawkes was shocked.
“Yes, I tried to follow him, but he was already gone. It’s all my fault.”
“No, Stella. You know how Danny is. It was obvious that he wouldn’t stay there. If he didn’t leave now, he would have after you left him alone.” Hawkes tried to calm her down.
“We have to find him. I don’t know what he’ll do.”
“Yes, what do you think where would he go first?”
“Lindsay’s apartment, I think.” Stella mentioned.
“Okay, you go there and I call the jail. Mac has to know.”
“He is talking to Sonny?” Stella didn’t know why she was surprised.
“Yes, he is.”
“Okay, tell Flack to go to Danny’s apartment. Perhaps Danny will show up there.”
“Call me if you find him, okay?”
“I will.”
