CHAPTER 20

1 week later

Mac was going home, but he had to have 4 weeks bed rest. Lindsay got help, and she booked some holiday time, to take care of him. Mac wasn't too happy, he wanted to get back to work. Lindsay put her foot down, and he couldn't fight her on it.

Lindsay and Stella drove him home, he needed their help to get upstairs. They took him to the bed, he laid back.

"Oh it is so nice to be home, it will be nice having you beside me Lindsay."

"Mac your not ready for that"?

"Your bad girl, I meant sleeping beside me". Mac smiled, Stella touched Lindsay, "he is the naughty one, I know what he meant".

Stella smiled, "I'm going to get going, I will keep you posted on the case promise. We are working round the clock to solve this. Don is going crazy, he wants the guy who is responsible for you being hurt".

"Stella has Amy's Mother called"?

"Yes everyday, she is really upset you got hurt. We said your doing better, and I told her we would never give up on finding justice for Amy"

"Thanks Stella, remember I will be back, so don't get comfortable in my chair".

Stella laughed, "Mac you have the most comfy chair, I'm not letting that go".

"Ok you can have my chair, but not my office". Lindsay sat down, "Don't worry about that, you will be back, but you will never be careless again".

"I won't Lindsay, I promise". Lindsay brought her lips to Mac, and they kissed. Stella walked to the door, "I will let myself out, but you too, be good".

"Stella wait, I will walk you to the door". Lindsay got up , "I will be right back, don't get up". Mac laid back, "I won't boss". Lindsay giggled, "I'm not really being bossy, but you don't listen". She walked Stella to the door, she hugged her. "I will be at work tomorrow, I have a nurse coming in tomorrow. It is a male nurse, I'm not having some young thing taking care of my guy"

"Oh Mac is going to kill you Lindsay"

"I know, but who cares". Stella left, Lindsay walked back to the room. She walked over grabbing his pajamas, and walked to the bed.

"Lets get you into these". He laughed, "Oh I'm not going to get lucky"?

"Not today Sexy". He pouted, Lindsay laughed, "Oh you big baby, give me some help getting you undressed". She took his shirt off, she saw the bandage, she touched it. Mac put his hand over hers, "Lindsay I'm so sorry, you were so scared, all I thought about was losing you, and never seeing my baby".

"Mac I was so scared, I thought I lost you, and it killed me". He pulled her close, she laid beside him. They held hands, and looked into each others eyes. He brought his mouth to hers, as they kiss ever so gently. She smiled, "Oh this is nice, I'm so glad your home".

"Me too Lindsay". They laid just holding each other, they both thanked God Mac was spared.

CHAPTER 21

The next morning Lindsay was getting dressed. Her stomach was upset, but she didn't tell Mack. She didn't want him worrying about her all day. She brought him a omelet breakfast, and touched his face. "I will call you from work, so keep the cell close. The nurse is coming, so you be nice, and listen and do what your told"

"Oh Lindsay, your not afraid to leave me with a cute young nurse"?

"No, I'm not ". She heard knocking at the front door, "Oh the nurse is here, I will be right back". She ran to the door, but smiled when she opened it. She was a little taken back, when Steven reached out his hand, and introduced himself. He was handsome, and so kind, but she laughed inside, knowing Mac was not going to be a happy camper. She let him in, and took his coat. She showed him around, and she told him to help himself to anything in the kitchen. She took him to see Mac, Lindsay walked in, and smiled, "I would like to introduce you to Steven". Mac was smiling, but he dropped his book, when Steven walked in, and laughed, "Oh your that happy to see me"?

'Lindsay is this a joke"?

"No, he is the best, I requested a male nurse, because I knew you would be much more comfortable with one".

"Lindsay can we talk", Mac said , while Steven laughed, "I will go get your medication, be right back". Lindsay giggled, "Boy he is sweet, and so cute Mac"

"Oh Lindsay this is cruel, a male nurse how embarrassing".

"Why he is here to help you, beside, I'm not going to work, and leaving you with some young nurse, who might fall for my guy".

"Lindsay a guy, he will have to help me go to the bathroom, that is so wrong".

"He would be better, he could carry you if he had to ".

"Oh that isn't happening, and take that grin off your face"

Lindsay walked over, "I have to go, I will call, your not mad are you"?

"No, but I'm not happy". Steven walked in, "Don't worry Mac we will bond real fast, and don't be shy around me, ask for anything".

Mac smiled, "Can you get me a ", Lindsay cut him off, and pointed a finger at Mac, "be nice, see you soon". She kissed him, and ran to the door. "Play nice boys". She walked out, laughing all the way to the elevator. Mac smiled, "I don't need you right now, really".

"Well it is time for a sponge bath".

"Yeah like that is happening, go away"

"Ok let me change your bandage, we will forget the sponge bath for now".

"Lindsay can do that, she would enjoy it actually." Steven laughed, so did Mac.

Lindsay got to the office, and went inside. Stella and Danny walked over, "How is Mac"?

"Great he is with Steven"

'Steven who is he"?

"His male nurse, he wasn't getting some cute young thing taking care of him". Danny and Stella were laughing thinking Mac probably is having the worst time.

Don walked over, "Lindsay how are you, and how is Mac"?

"I'm fine, Mac is getting better everyday. You should go visit him Don, your the only one who hasn't so far".

"Lindsay I'm sorry, I really am"

'Don, I'm sorry for being so mean to you. Mac told me it was all him, he was careless, this case really got to him".

"I promise you, we will solve it". Lindsay hugged Don, "I know we will for us, but especially for Mac, and the family of the victims. Don wrapped his arm around her, and they went to see Sid in the lab.

Chapter 22

Lindsay called home, and Mac answered, "Hello"

'Mac it is Lindsay, how is it going"?

"Not great but you knew that when you hired this guy".

"Mac just be good, he is the best they say"

"Yeah I believe you, he is ok, but I'm not letting him give me a sponge bath"

"Really, are you saving that for me"?

"You bet, how is the case"?

"We are running some leads, I'm going out with Don now".

"Be careful Lindsay"

"I will be, I'm not taking any chances Mac".

"Call me later Lindsay".

"Love you Mac, I will". They hung up, Mac wished he was at work, but he knew he had to sit patiently, and get better before that was happening.

He laughed when Stella walked into the room. She smiled, "OMG can you get his number for me"?

"Who sponge boy, you think he is cute"?

"Yes, are you blind Mac"?

"Stella grow up girl".

She walked over, "I was over seeing Amy's Mother, and I thought I would stop by".

"Amy's Mother what happened"?

"Nothing, I go by everyday or two, just to keep her informed. She is doing a little better, but I think she is drinking trying to drown the pain. I guess I can't blame her, I can't imagine what it would be like to lose a child that way".

"I know Stella, isn't there anything new on the case"?

"Well yes, we have narrowed in on the Drug Dealers, but we are stumped at the Vigilante, we have talked to so many family members of kids that died due to drugs. We ruled most of them out, but Lindsay and Don are going to talk with a few today"

"Oh God Stella what if they come across the one".

"I doubt they will but he is killing the bad guys, not the Police"

"Yeah until he is cornered right".

"Mac calm down or I'm getting your friend in here. He might have to give you a needle in your butt to calm you down".

"A needle in my butt, why are you saying that"?

"They do that in the movies don't they beside, I would stay to watch that".

"Go Stella you are bad, and don't ask him for his number".

'Fine Meany". Stella kissed Mac on the cheek, and walked out. She said goodbye to Steven, and left , and Steven went to Mac.

"Hey is Stella single Mac"?

"OMG are you kidding, you too"?

"What"?

"She wanted your number, so yes she is single Steven".

"Really cool, will she visit again sometime soon"?

"Oh I'm sure she might, knowing you are here". Steven walked out, and Mac laughed, texting Stella.

"Stella guess what"?

"What Mac"?

"He likes you too, OMG that is sick".

"Really what did he say"?

"He asked me if your single"?

"What did you say"?

"I told him you liked him, and wanted his number"

"You didn't "?

"Yeah honesty is the best policy, isn't that your line Stella"?

"Yeah , I will pay you back Mac, but I will see you tomorrow"

"Yeah thought so". Stella hung up, and Mac laughed, he missed his team, they were like Family, he hoped they all would be fine.

Chapter 23

Don and Lindsay got to Joseph Peters home, and knocked. Don was a little nervous interviewing people in their homes. The Family didn't want to go to the Police Station they said it was to hard on them. Joseph came to the door, and opened it.

"Hello"

"Hello this is Detective Lindsay Monroe , and I'm Detective Don Flack "

"Please come in, and sit down".

Don and Lindsay went in, but both of them scanned the home, both thinking Joseph's home was very lovely, but sad also. They saw pictures of his son Mike who died of a drug overdose, at a College Weekend Party. Don and Lindsay sat down, and Joseph, picked up a picture of Mike, and smiled, "he was trying to be a Doctor, can you believe it? I don't understand why he took that crap, we discussed the dangers over and over. His Friends said he got the stuff from this guy on the street, and it was not good stuff. He took it, and went into convulsions right away. These so called Friends were afraid to call for help, because there was drugs, and booze, and sex at this stupid party. They let Mike lay on the floor for 1 hour when they called. My son died a horrible death, I hate his friends, but I hate the man who sold him the drugs more.

"Sir do you know who sold your son the drugs"?

"Yes, that punk that died Mason, his face was in the paper. I'm glad he is dead like my son,"

"Sir you didn't do something did you"?

"Me No, I'm not a killer, but I wish I was, I would have loved to kill him, he walks the street selling that crap to kids, knowing he is getting them addicted. I don't know who killed these drug dealers in the paper, but they deserve an award".

Lindsay looked at Don there was something in the way he spoke she had a bad feeling he might be the one. He was so angry, anyone would be but people can't take the law into their own hands. Lindsay stood up, "Don I think Joseph answered enough questions, we should get going". Don was surprised, "Lindsay we are not finished"?

"Yes we are, we have so many others to talk to". Joseph laughed, "You people never stopped them, so someone is doing your jobs". Don got up, "Sir we will be back, we are sorry for your loss"

"Yes so am I". Don and Lindsay left the house, and were walking to the car. Don stopped, "Lindsay what happened in there"?

"I don't know, I think he might be the one, I didn't like being in there with him. I think he should be brought to the station to be questioned, it isn't safe in their homes".

"We have done this a million times Lindsay, what is up"?

"Don lets go to the Station now". Lindsay got in the car, and Don ran around getting in. He looked up at the house, he could see Joseph staring at them. He got shivers, he had the feeling Lindsay was right, he just might be the one. Don got in the car, and they both drove to the Station, neither saying a word.

Chapter 24

Lindsay and Don got to the Office, and were telling the Others about Joseph. Everyone agreed it sounds, like he might be the one. Danny said, "Why don't we bring him in"?

"No maybe we will go to the Judge, and ask for permission to follow him 24/7"

"The poor guy he lost his son now we want to stalk him like a criminal". Sid yells.

"Sid he can't kill people even if he is hurting, you know better". Sid storms off, the others were confused, and Stella said she would go talk to him. Stella went to Sid he was looking at some papers when she walked in.

"Stella I know I was out of line, but I'm sorry, that is how I feel"

"Sid we are here to bring the bad guys in. I agree the Drug dealers are the bad guys, but the man killing them is too".

"He lost his son, can you imagine that"?

"Sid what is wrong, you see this type of thing daily"?

"My Sister had a son who was amazing, his name was Andy. He was such a great kid, he would help anyone, and basically did. He went to University, and called everyday to tell his parents he was ok. Then all of a sudden he changed, they later found out, he got hooked on drugs, it started at first as a way to stay awake to get through studying, than it progressed. They got a call one night saying he died from a bad batch of drugs, that many kids died from that month. My Sister is not the same she blames herself everyday, that she didn't go to him to see why he changed so drastically over a month period? She blames herself Stella, but it was the Dealers that put that stuff on the streets. They are murderers, so when one dies, I have no remorse. I feel for the kids that get hooked but not the dealers".

"I'm sorry Sid". She walked over hugging him, and he got emotional, he pulled away from her, and walked into the bathroom. Stella stood staring, this case was affecting so many of them, she hoped it ended soon, with no more murders.

She walked out, she saw Lindsay leaving, she ran over. "Lindsay your leaving"?

"Yeah I will see you tomorrow Stella".

"Bye say hi to Mac, and Steven"

"Steven you met him"?

"Yes today, he is hot Lindsay, OMG you know how to pick them".

"Stella you are bad, but he is cute, but I only have eyes for Mac".

"Great maybe, Steven will be mine". Lindsay walked to the elevator, "OMG Stella, bye". Stella waved, and walked back to the office. Lindsay drove home, she parked, and went upstairs. She walked into the house, and she could hear Mac yelling. She threw her purse, and coat on the couch , and ran to the bedroom. She laughed, Steven was carrying Mac to bed, and she hid so he didn't see her. Steven smiled, "Mac, I had to you were going to fall, don't be so stubborn".

"Steven don't you ever do that again, I can do this on my own".

"Fine Mr. Taylor, I will go get your medication".

"Steven"

"Yes Mac"?

"Don't tell Lindsay, you had to carry me, that I couldn't walk please"

"Sir you are weak, don't be ashamed, I only did my job"

"Please Steven"

"I won't it is our secret". Steven walked out, and jumped seeing Lindsay. She put her finger to her lips, she had tears in her eyes. Steven shut the bedroom door, and walked over, "Lindsay he will be fine, his legs just gave out".

"OMG I have never seen Mac like that"

"Shh go in there give him a hug, and don't mention this. You have to compose yourself first, Mac will be fine, I promise you". Lindsay hugged Steven, "Thank you , I needed to hear that". Steven smiled, "One of your pretty co-workers came here today to see Mac, she is adorable".

"Stella"?

"Yes that is her, would you mind if I asked her out sometime for coffee"? Lindsay giggled, "No, go for it, I think Stella would love that".

"You think"?

" I know, go get his Medications, I will go see him". Lindsay wiped the tears from her eyes. She opened the bedroom door, she smiled, "Oh Mac I'm home". He laughed, "Oh thank God, Steven is driving me crazy". Lindsay walked over, she went into his arms, and they just hugged.

Chapter 25

Lindsay smiled, "Mac how was your Day"?

"Not great Steven is a pain, but it was fun seeing Stella. I'm a little disappointed in her, she thinks Steven is something. What is it about girls and Steven"?

"Stop it Mac, you like him just fine, your just mad, your stuck in this bed, and can't work".

"Your right, I could go to work, and sit at my desk"

'No you can't don't get me angry, I'm pregnant".

"Fine, I'm so sick of being couped up in this Penthouse".

"Mac you will get better if you stop whining. Do you want to hear what happened today"?

'What"?

"We talked to one of the Father's, he is so angry about his son's death. He died of a drug overdose, he is so upset, I don't blame him, but he could be the guy Mac".

"Really did you bring him in"?

'No, we have to make sure he is the right guy. We bring him in to early, and we lose evidence, he walks".

"The poor guy is so angry, but to kill a young girl like Amy, why"?

"Maybe he thought she was a drug dealer, or he is so far gone, he doesn't care , if your with a drug dealer, your the enemy in his eyes".

Steven walked in, "Here is your pills Mac, would you like something else, before I turn in"?

"No, we are fine Steven, but do you have to stay"?

"Yes, your pregnant wife to be, can't take a chance helping you to the bathroom. Well she can use the urinal, if she likes, but that isn't really pleasant". Lindsay smiled, "Steven, I will call you, if I need you, go to bed". Steven walked out, and Mac shut his eyes, "how embarrassing, he had to mention that stuff".

"What you have to go to the bathroom, I think everyone does Mac"

"Lindsay I want to save some of my pride ok".

"Mac, I would let you help me, don't be shy around me. I have seen all your best parts already".

'Lindsay you are bad, come here, and give me a hug".

"No fooling around Mac, not until the Doctor gives his ok".

"I know can we kiss, that might make me feel better". Lindsay walked over laying beside Mac. They stare at each other, he pulled the hair from her forehead, and brought his lips over hers. She shut her eyes, she wished Mac wasn't hurt she needed him, but she knew they had to be good. Lindsay giggled, and Mac smiled, "What is so funny"?

"Well I was just thinking about Stella and Steven, she really likes him"

'It is mutual, he was asking me a million and one questions about her".

"That is sweet, Stella deserves to be happy, she hasn't dated in a long time"

"I know not since she was attacked, but maybe Steven will help her forget that".

Mac whispered, "Are you hungry Lindsay"?

"Yeah a little, I had a sandwich at work, did you have supper"?

"Yeah Steven made some meat dish, it sucked".

"Mac can the guy do anything right"?

"No, he makes horrible coffee too, it was too strong, and he put Sugar in mine."

"Oh poor baby, what would you like"?

"Oh something sweet since, I can't make love to you right now"?

"Ok milk and cookies coming up". Lindsay got up, "Be right back Mac".

"I will be here, don't worry". Lindsay went to the kitchen, and poured the milk, and grabbed a plate of cookies. She almost dropped them, when the phone rang. She ran over grabbing it".

"Lindsay"

"Sheldon what is wrong, it is late"?

"I thought I would let you know, 2 other Drug dealers were killed tonight, it was a horrible scene Lindsay".

"Oh God, we didn't have anyone watching him yet"

"No, what if it was him, you and Don should have brought him in".

"Sheldon how could we, with what evidence, his hatred of drug dealers. We would have to bring half of New York in, if that was the case".

"Lindsay Stella wants you in at 7am, she wants to have a team meeting".

"Ok, I will be there, thanks for calling Sheldon".

'Goodnight Lindsay, sorry for calling, but I thought you should know".

"Bye". Lindsay hung up, she walked over to the counter. She felt tears come to her eyes, she hated the thought of putting a Father away, but if he was guilty he left them no choice. She knew he must be hurting, but taking the law into your own hands, was wrong. She wiped the tears away, grabbed the tray, and walked to Mac.

Lindsay woke up, and got ready, trying not to wake Mac. She was about to leave, when Mac woke up.

"Lindsay your leaving so early"?

"Stella is having a meeting at 7, I have to go please go back to sleep Mac".

"Don't I get a kiss"?

"Sure Mac". Lindsay sat down, and leaned over kissing Mac. He leaned over kissing her stomach. "You both be safe, and hurry home, your leaving me with Steven alone". Lindsay laughed, "Give the guy a chance, if Stella likes him, he can't be all that bad".

"Stella thinks he is hot, so she doesn't know if he is nice or not".

"Mac really, be good don't give Steven a hard time". Mac smiled as Lindsay left the room, and was putting her coat on. Steven came out of his room, "your up early Lindsay"?

"I'm off to work, be nice to my guy in there".

"I will don't worry, he likes me, he just won't admit it". Steven and Lindsay laugh, as she left. Steven went to the kitchen to get breakfast started.

Lindsay drove to the Office, and parked, and went upstairs. She walked to Stella's office, Sheldon, Don and Danny were already there. Don smiled, "Oh look who is 5 minutes late".

"Oh 5 minutes, where is Stella"?

"She went to get Sid, she should be back soon". Lindsay sat down, and Sheldon smiled, "How is Mac"?

"Ok he hates being home, he misses being here".

"He needs to rest" Don says

Stella and Sid walk in, and Stella shut the door. She walked over to her desk, and smiled, "sorry I got you all back here so early. You all know there was more murders last night, 2 really gruesome murders. This killer is getting worse, and worse, every time he kills. He is out of control, he has so much rage, he can't stop, so we have to keep working until we find this man. We are bringing Joseph in, I want to talk with him with Lindsay . I want you Don and Danny talking to every drug dealer you can, and scare the crap out of them. Sid and Sheldon, I want you going over all the evidence, to make sure we didn't miss something. There is a serial killer out there killing these criminals, none of them are safe." Sid was angry, "They won't stop Stella, so why bother warning them they can read the papers".

"Because that is our job, Sid I hate what they do, and I want to bring every last one of them in, and put them away. We have to stop this guy or woman first. Please focus on this case Sid, don't bring your own pain into it". Don put his hand on Sid's arm, and whispered, "We are here for you Sid, if you need to talk". Sid smiled, "Thanks Don, Stella is right , I have to put my feelings aside but it is hard". Stella sat back down, "Go have a coffee, and lets get this day started". Don, Sid and Danny left the Office Lindsay got up, and Stella told her to sit down.

"What is wrong Stella"?

"Nothing, I wish Mac was here, I'm not cut out for this".

"You are great you had to do that with Sid. I know he is hurting he lost someone he really loved, we are here for him. He has to do his job we all do. I don't know who is killing these drug dealers, but I know he is hurting, I feel for the person Stella."

"I know Lindsay but he is going to go to jail for life, would his Family Member want that"?

"Probably not, but this man or Woman doesn't care, and he won't stop unless we find him". Stella smiled, "Go get a juice or milk Lindsay, it is going to be a long day".

"Would you like me to get you a coffee Stella"?

"No, I had enough today, Joseph will be here in 1/2 hour , see you than". Lindsay left, and Stella sat back, she shut her eyes, and hoped this case would be solved soon, for everyone's sake.

Chapter 27

Lindsay and Stella walked into the interrogation room , and Joseph was sitting there. He was angry that he was brought in, and he just glared at Stella and Lindsay.

"Mr Peters we know your angry, but you have to answer our questions"

'I already answered enough questions, why don't you go out , and find the killer of my son"?

"We have read over your Son's case, they are trying to come down on the Drug Dealers that were selling drugs at your Son's college, but Mike took those drugs on his own."

"The drugs were to strong, they sold that crap knowing it could kill people".

"We know that Sir, we see enough deaths from the exact same thing that happened to Mike. It kills us, but we put 2 drug dealers away, there is two more put on the streets. This person killing them is just as bad as them, he or she can't put the law into their own hands. Mr. Peters where were you last night"?

"At home with my Dog, ask him maybe he can verify" Stella banged her hand down, "I have had enough of your crap Sir, stop being so arrogant, or I will hold you on suspicion of Murder".

"Do it I don't care, I didn't kill anyone, but I'm so happy that they are dying horrible deaths. They deserve it, they are evil, and they deserve to rot in hell"

"Stop Joseph would Mike want this"?

"Want what, me to be bitter, I'm mad at him too. I miss my boy do you have a child, it kills me, so leave me alone, or arrest me". Lindsay was so upset, she could see Joseph was losing it, but she didn't really blame him. The thought of losing your child over drugs, made her ill.

Joseph wouldn't answer anymore questions, Stella let him go, but told him, he could be brought back anytime.

Joseph left, and Lindsay walked over grabbing a cola from the machine. Stella walked over, "Are you ok Lindsay, that really upset you didn't it"?

"Yes, I think he is innocent, I don't know why"?

"Oh God I want this case closed, if it isn't Joseph who could it be"?

"I don't know but we better find out soon, or we will see another murder really soon"

Stella grabbed a cola, and smiled, "Lets go look at the cases again of the Parents or Families of some of the Drug overdose deaths recently". They walked into Stella's room, and shut the door.

Steven heard someone knocking at the door, he left Mac, and went to answer it.

"Hi, you must be the Nurse Steven"?

"Yes, I'm Steven can I help you"?

' Well has Mac had lunch yet"?

"No he was exercising, he just finished, I was going to make his lunch now".

"This is Don, I'm Danny, and this is Sheldon, we bought Mac a Sub, this is his favorite meal".

"Come in, but he is very tired, you might have to leave, if he needs rest".

"Sure can we go to his room"?

"Sure go in, I will bring you some soft drinks, or coffee, what would you like"?

"Cola would be cool, but we could grab it".

"Go see Mac, he could use some friends about now. He doesn't really consider me a friend".

"Steven"?

"Yes".

"Here we grabbed you a Sub, turkey hope you like it"

"Love it, thanks". Sheldon smiled, and walked to the bedroom, and Mac was surprised but happy to see them.

"Guys this is a surprise, why aren't you working"?

"We get to eat right Mac, we bought you a sub"

"Oh a sub, thank God that guy only gives me healthy food".

"This is healthy light turkey, no mayo".

"No Sheldon no mayo".

"Just Kidding, I wouldn't do that Mac". They all laugh, and Mac ate his sub in silence. He enjoyed every moment of it, while they talked about the case. Mac gave them pointers, and they laughed, they knew it was killing him, not being at work. They said Stella was doing a great job.

"Stella is great, I knew she would".

"Mac"

"Yeah Don".

"No one will take your place, put don't tell Stella that ok".

Mac smiled, "He needed to hear that, and he laid back as Danny talked about a recent movie he saw. Mac knew this case was getting to them all, and he hated that he let them down, by being careless.

[Jessie]

CHAPTER 28

Don, Danny and Sheldon were leaving, and Mac hated he couldn't go with them. Don smiled, "Enjoy your time at home Mac, you haven't had a day off in years".

"Yes, and this is killing me, keep me posted, and watch out for Lindsay promise".

"We will don't worry, she is mostly staying close to the office, don't worry". Steven walked in, "You all are leaving"?

"Yes Steven, he is all yours". Danny laughed

Mac waved as they leave, Steven walked over, "Mac you need to rest, this has been a long day for you"

"I rest all the time, leave me alone Steven".

"Mac please".

"Go leave me alone, or I will fire you on the spot". Steven walked to the door, and turned, "Fine but you will relapse, and you will be off work longer than you have to if you don't listen".

"Fine I will rest, if that will get you off my case".

"Mac listen to me, enough, I'm here to help you. If you hate me that much, I will tell Lindsay to change Nurses. I don't want that , I want to help you, but if you are going to fight me all the way it is useless".

"Sorry Steven, I don't want you to leave, but this is hard for me. I have never had someone watching my every move. I miss the office, I miss my Friends, and I worry about Lindsay.".

"How about you rest today, and maybe, I can take you for a visit tomorrow, but a visit, no working ".

"You are not kidding, you will take me to the Office"?

"Yes, if you are up to it tomorrow". Mac smiled, "Ok deal, I sleep, and tomorrow we go on our little trip in town". Steven laughed, "Wow you love work that much boy that is amazing".

Steven smiled, "I will let you rest, Lindsay will be home soon. What would you like for supper tonight"?

"Chinese food, I'm dying for that". Steven smiled, "That sounds good, I will order it in, but it is on you Mac".

Mac smiled, "Of course, and if your nice, I will let you share with me and Lindsay'.

"Mac would you like to try, and eat at the table tonight".

"Yes, I want out of this bed".

"Ok, we will try, sweet dreams Mac". Steven shut the door, Mac smiled, and shut his eyes, he was tired, and he was out in no time.

Lindsay and Stella were going to interview another parent. They walked in, and they saw Alex, he was older, he smiled at them, but they saw a sadness that made them feel horrible for them. They sat down, and Stella introduced themselves to him. He asked why he was brought in, he said he answered all these questions over and over already?

"Alex you don't mind us calling you by your first name"?

"No".

"Your Daughter Cindy died Oct 20, of a drug overdose, she was found in her apartment by a friend."

"Yes she was 19 years old, they said she had sex with someone before she died. She didn't have a boyfriend, she never told me or her Mother about a boy. Her apartment was a mess, but the Police wouldn't listen to us. They said she was on drugs, she wasn't raped, it was a drug overdose, plain and simple. I know Cindy was raped, the apartment was a mess, because whoever raped her drugged her. The Coroner even said they thought this was the first time she used drugs, and she died. She was a great young lady, she had a friend, Lindsay who was on drugs. She tried to help her on many occasions. She use to come to me all the time to help her bail Lindsay out of jail. Lindsay started to sell drugs, and I told Cindy to stay away from her, but she didn't. She died because she told me she went after the drug dealers that got Lindsay started, she was dead 3 days later. My Daughter is labeled a drug addict, but she was murdered, and raped, I will bet my life on it. I don't care about these sick drug dealers dying all over the city, they don't care about the lives they ruin everyday. My Daughter is dead, and you people didn't care, so I don't care to answer anymore of your questions". Stella and Lindsay look at each other, they didn't know if Alex was the killer, but if he wasn't he sure was on the verge of losing it, and they knew he needed help to deal with his anger.

Chapter 29

Lindsay came home she was exhausted, and a little disappointed. She walked in, and hung up her coat, and was about to go to the bedroom to see Mac. She was shocked seeing Mac at the kitchen table, Steven smiled, "Surprised Lindsay"?

"What are you doing out of bed"?

"I told him he could, I have everything ready. Mac wanted Chinese, so I ordered in. I thought I would go in my room, and watch a movie, I made a plate for myself".

"You can eat with us Steven". Lindsay says

"No you and your guy need some alone time. Call me when he is ready to go back, don't let him walk alone".

"I won't Steven, I will call you". Steven smiled, and left them alone. Lindsay washed her hands, and sat down.

Mac smiled, "You are a sight for sore eyes, but you look exhausted Lindsay"

" I am , this was a really long day, I couldn't wait to get home to you".

"What is wrong Sweetie, did something happen"?

"Yes interviewing these Families who lost loved ones, is hard. This man tonight is so angry, I hate putting them through all this, but we have to stop this guy or woman who is killing people"

"Lindsay lets eat , and talk about this after".

"I know Mac I can't believe you are up, are you sure this is ok"?

"Yes Steven wouldn't let me if it wasn't. I'm starving, lets dig in, want a egg roll"? Lindsay smiled, "Sure Mac, but the noodles look yummy, and the spicy chicken. I hope it doesn't upset my stomach".

They were eating, she could tell he was having fun, but he was uncomfortable too. She got up making them a coffee, and she touched his shoulder. "I think I better get Steven to get you back in bed".

"Why are we going to have fun"?

"No sleep Mac, I'm sorry, your not ready".

"Hey we can try". Mac smiled, and Lindsay brought her lips to Mac's. "Soon Mac, I don't want to see you relapse".

"Ok, maybe we can watch a Cop show, it will make me feel like I'm at work".

"Oh why not a comedy Mac"?

"Ok whatever you like Lindsay, go get Steven". Lindsay walked over, and knocked on his door. Steven came out, and smiled, "How was dinner good"?

"Yes it was nice, thanks for disappearing for awhile".

"Mac that is rude". Lindsay scolded him.

"Sorry but he is always around, I need some space". Steven helped him up, and they walked to the bedroom really slowly. He helped Mac in the washroom, helped him change, and got him settled in bed. Lindsay cleaned up in the kitchen, and came in as Steven was walking out.

Lindsay changed into her nightgown, and got in bed beside Mac. She turned the tv on, and was flipping the channels. She laughed, "OMG have you seen this film, it is just starting"?

"No, is it funny"?

"Oh yes, I love this movie", she put on "The Wedding Singer". They were watching, Lindsay was laughing, but she was fighting to stay awake. Mac whispered, "you can sleep sweetie, I'm not tired yet". Lindsay snuggled close, and was drifting off asleep, while Mac watched the movie. He laughed, this wasn't something that interested him, but it was funny. He looked at Lindsay, and smiled, he couldn't wait to marry her, and he couldn't wait until the baby came. He wondered what they were going to have, he wanted a son, but a little girl would be sweet. He didn't care, as long as the baby was healthy. He wrapped his arms around Lindsay, and finished watching the movie.

Chapter 30

The next morning Lindsay got up early, and dressed, and went to make a coffee. Steven wasn't up yet, Lindsay phoned the office, and Stella answered, "hello"

"Stella it is Lindsay, I will be there in about 45 minutes".

"Ok Lindsay how is Mac"?

"Great he is doing much better, he will back to work soon"

"Great I'm counting on that Lindsay".

"You are doing a great job, don't you be silly".

"Bye Lindsay we have a few more interviews today. The guys are going out to talk to some more dealers".

"See you soon Stella, want me to bring you a coffee"?

"No thanks I already had 3 today, I came in a 5 today".

"OMG you have been working 2 1/2 hours already Stella"

"I know, I couldn't sleep Lindsay, I want to solve this case. I feel horrible, I hate bringing all these distraught parents in for questioning".

"We have to Stella don't worry we will solve it soon". Lindsay said goodbye, and hung the phone up. She jumped when Mac said, "Why didn't you wake me"? Lindsay turned around, and was shocked, Mac was standing all alone.

"OMG what are you doing Mac, are you crazy"?

"I made it, I had a hard time, but I'm fine". Lindsay wrapped her arm around him, and helped him to the chair. "Mac that was crazy, you have to wait for Steven, your not strong enough yet"

"Lindsay I did it, I'm getting stronger everyday".

"Mac I don't want you back in the hospital. I want you well so we can marry soon. Promise me you won't do that again, not until the Doctors say it is safe".

"Ok Lindsay can I have a coffee"?

"Fine, you really make me angry sometimes".

"Oh Lindsay you love me, you know I'm stubborn".

Steven walked in, "OMG Lindsay how did he get in here"?

"He walked alone, he doesn't listen, tell him off when I'm gone". Lindsay handed Mac a coffee, than she grabbed her purse, and gun. "Goodbye I will see you tonight".

"Lindsay"

"What Mac"?

"No kiss, I'm sorry". Lindsay walked over giving him a kiss, she touched his cheek, but turned and walked out. Mac was looking at his coffee, and he knew Steven was upset. Steven walked over banging stuff around.

"Steven I get it, I was stupid but I'm fine"

"Mac you have to listen you will get better, and you are. If you fell it would have set you back. You know what maybe we should forget going to the office today"

"No, I'm so looking forward to going there for a visit".

"Yeah once, I get you there you won't leave"

"I will, I know my limits, I'm just tired of this Steven. Stop yelling at me, I'm not use to being taken care of. I'm sorry, I'm fine so let it go please".

"Fine Mac, but if you relapse, remember it will be me who pays for it"

"You why you"?

'Because I'm suppose to be watching you. I'm suppose to get you to listen, but you are the most stubborn man, I have ever known. You are a pain in the butt, and I never wanted anyone to get better faster than you. I will go in town, but if you don't listen, I will tell your Doctor, and request you be put back in the hospital for your own safety".

Mac smiled, "Oh the real Steven is coming out, you are mean"

"Yes, lets eat breakfast, and lets get you dressed for work. It will be fun seeing Stella again".

"Oh you sneak you only agreed to go to the Office to see her". Steven smiled, "Prove it Mac". They both laughed, and they ate their breakfast, and Mac didn't fight Steven, when he helped him get ready. Steven made him get into the wheelchair, and they left to go to the office.

Chapter 31

Steven got to the office, and helped Mac out of the car. He put him in the wheelchair, but put his hand on the break. "You listen to me, when it is time to leave, don't give me trouble please"

"I won't don't worry, I just want to see everyone"

"Fine, lets go". Steven pushed the wheelchair, and Mac didn't resist. He was tired of fighting with him, he hated to admit it, he was starting to like Steven. They got in the elevator, and went to the floor. They got off, Mac thought maybe everyone would be out, and he wouldn't see anyone. He pointed to his office, and he was surprised, Stella and Lindsay were looking at photos. Mac smiled, "Oh what a lovely sight, just what I needed to see". Lindsay was shocked, and Stella jumped up, and ran over giving Mac a kiss on the cheek. "What are you doing here Mac, Lindsay didn't say you were coming here today"?

"I didn't know, Steven is this good for him? I don't want him getting worse, I want him better". Mac smiled, "I'm fine, I'm listening to Steven don't worry. I won't stay long, he won't let me, now don't I get a kiss from my girl"? Lindsay smiled, and kissed him quickly, and laughed, "God you even have Steven wrapped around your finger now Mac"

"No, he gave me this 1/2 hour lecture, before I left the house. I don't have him wrapped around my finger'. Sheldon walked in, "Mac what are you doing here"?

"Oh come on, is that the question of the hour, I wanted to see everyone, is that ok with you all"?

"Yes, great to see you Mac, I think Danny is coming in late, but Don should be here any moment".

"How is Sid"?

"Good he is quiet recently, this case is getting to him. He is fine though we had a long talk last night".

"Good, I will see him before I leave". Stella smiled at Steven, and walked over putting her hand out to him. "Hi Steven great to see you again"

"You too, so this is where you work"

'Yes this is where I work, but this is his office. I have a much smaller office, just down the hall. Would you like to see it"? Mac laughed, "Oh smooth Stella, take Steven to your office".

"Oh stop it Mac, would you like a coffee"?

"Sure". Stella and Steven walked out leaving Mac, Sheldon, and Lindsay alone. Sheldon smiled, "Oh I think Stella likes your Nurse Mac"

"Yeah I think so, she couldn't be more obvious"

"Give her a break Mac, she deserves to meet someone nice. Steven is a really great guy, so I think it is sweet". Lindsay smiled,

"I do too, but tell me about the case, anything new happening"?

"We have been out speaking to every drug dealer out there Mac. They are some of the biggest idiots in the world. They could care less that a killer is out there. They won't answer our questions, and they won't lay low until we find the killer or killers. They are so tough, but they should realize, this guy is out of control, and he has taken down other dealers with no remorse".

"Has Amy's Mom called or has she came in"?

"She was here yesterday, she is hurting, but we keep her informed. She said she is keeping you in her prayers Mac". Sheldon said.

"I hate that she is hurting, I hope this ends soon for her". Sheldon smiled, "I will leave you alone for a moment". He left and Lindsay walked over to Mac, "You know you should be at home"

'I know but I'm so tired of sitting at home doing nothing. I'm worried about you, and the team". Lindsay wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing his cheek. "You don't have to worry, we will be fine promise".

Mac smiled, and they both sat talking to each other.

Stella was showing Steven around, and she showed him her office. He smiled, "Your office is very nice, small but nice".

"Steven are you always so sweet, or are you naughty sometimes"?

"Naughty, that is cute, I guess sometimes, I am". Stella smiled, she moved close kissing him, and she smiled, "Oh nice lips Cutie". She walked out, Steven stood for a moment, not believing what just happened. He smiled, and ran out, and Stella laughed, "Hey there is more where that came from, if you just ask me out already". Steven laughed, and she walked over to grab Mac his coffee.

[Jessie]

Chapter 32

Steven walked to Mac's office, and Mac laughed, "Oh it isn't time already"?

"No you can stay a little longer, Stella has your coffee. Please be honest are you having any pain"?

"A little but to be expected, remember I was shot Steven"

"Mac don't be that way".

"I'm fine, why don't you let Stella show you around"?

Stella smiled, "Oh smooth Mac, are you trying to get rid of poor Steven"?

"Yes, how did you guess". Stella laughed, and she took Steven's hand, and whispered, "Lets go downstairs, and get a real coffee". He went with her, and they went down on the elevator. Stella laughed as Steven moved really close to her. She whispered, "I can't kiss you in this elevator, it wouldn't be proper beside, there is cameras everywhere". Steven and Stella laugh, as the elevator opened, and they walked out, going to the small cafe next door.

Mac and Lindsay were going over some of the evidence, when Sid walked in.

"Oh Mac you are back"

Lindsay smiled, "No he is visiting only, but it is nice having him here"

"Here is something that I was bringing for Stella, where is she"?

"Oh she went for a break, give it to me, she won't mind". Sid handed him the report, and Mac looked, "OMG Sid this is great, you got partials, have you ran them through the system".

"Yes, but guess what we don't have a match on the system. It probably is the killer but they never have been charged, or booked before"

"Oh you know what this means, all the suspects have to come in they need to be fingerprinted. Lindsay you have to go to Judge Powell, he will sign the warrants for us". Lindsay walked to her desk, and called Judge Powell's secretary. She told them what they needed, and she said she would call her, as soon as she talked to Judge Powell. Lindsay walked to the office, and told Sid and Mac. Don walked into the office, and said he had a call on line one, he thinks it is the person doing the killings.

Mac put the phone on speaker phone, and asked who he was talking to?

"Who am I talking to"?

"This is CSI Detective First Grade: Mac Taylor"

"You are in charge"?

"Yes, who is this"?

'You can't trace this call, I'm calling from a untraceable cell phone. You guys think you will catch me, but you won't. I will never stop because you all will not get these animals off the street. Do your job, and maybe I can end this".

"What your doing, what makes you any more better than them"?

"I'm not but the kids, and people they kill, I'm doing it for them"

"They wouldn't want this, let us do our job"

"I waited and waited, but no one paid for my child's death. Mac, Lindsay and Sid, and Don stare at each other. Mac tried to stay calm, he didn't want to lose this call.

"I'm sorry your child died, tell us about him or her, what happened"?

"You are trying to figure out who I am, this thing that disguises voices is amazing, you people don't know if I'm a woman or a man do you"?

"No, but I can see you are hurting, and we are so sorry"

"I hate what I'm doing, but I can't stop, tonight, you will hear of more deaths. I have been watching these idiots for days. Your Fellow Police Officers have been talking to them, they laugh at you, like you are fools, and you are. I don't care anymore about myself, I will make every last one of them pay, that is a promise". Mac yelled, but the phone went dead, and Mac slammed his hands on the table.

"Sid take this to the lab, see if you can figure out if this is a woman or man? Sid took the tape from the phone, that Mac turned on, when the call started. They all knew the phone was untraceable, but they also knew he or she was losing control, whoever it was in someway was feeling remorse, but they knew tonight, more drug dealers were going to be killed, and they knew they probably couldn't stop it from happening.

Chapter 33

Mac sat back, he hated that more people had to die. He hated how so many lives end due to drugs, and alcohol. He looked at Lindsay, and Sheldon, and yelled, "these fools, are going to die one at a time, but they are to stupid to listen to our warning". Lindsay touched Mac's hand, "Stop Mac, don't get worked up, remember you are not suppose to be here".

"Should we release this tape to the News, maybe it will keep them inside, and safe for one night"? Lindsay looked at Sheldon, go make a copy of that tape, and take it to our contacts, with the News Stations. Tell them to release this on the news by 6pm. This man is going to kill someone, we have no choice". Sheldon ran to Sid's office, he asked him to make a copy of the tape. He ran it to the stations himself. He called Stella, to tell her what was happening.

'Sheldon what do you mean, the killer called, and I wasn't called, and advised about it"?

"It came in, you were not available Mac was. I'm telling you, because Mac wants this released to the New's stations. This person is going to kill again tonight, this is the only thing we can do, because otherwise, we have no way of stopping it".

"Sheldon releasing this tape isn't going to stop it, but go ahead, I will talk to you later". Sheldon hung up, and knew Stella was upset she wasn't called first. Stella smiled, 'Steven I think we better get back upstairs".

"Are you ok, what did Mac do"?

"Nothing, come on". Steven threw the money down, and they walked back to the office. Mac and Lindsay were talking when Stella walked in.

"Stella you heard you were not here, you were with Steven"

"I know, but you sent Sheldon out to release this tape. I didn't even get to hear it. I thought I was suppose to be in charge, well that isn't so I guess".

"Stella stop, you were not here, you are in charge, but I'm coming back "

"I know Mac, but I should have been called".

"Sorry you are right". Lindsay smiled, "You two talk, me and Steven will be out here". Steven and Lindsay left, and shut the door. Stella sat down, and stared at Mac, who smiled, "Oh God you have a temper Stella, I didn't do this to make you look bad"

"I know Mac, I'm just upset, I hate that we are not any closer to finding this person, who is killing because their loved one died due to drugs. I'm getting calls from parents, and groups asking me why I'm going after the man that is taking the scum off the streets. I know I'm doing my job, but I can't even answer them, they are evil, they are killing innocent people everyday. I hate that once, I find this person who is already dead inside due to hatred, and due to losing, what was their life, he gets put in prison, and those idiots will still be dealing on the streets. You will never stop it Mac ever".

'Ok Stella this case is getting to everyone, we can't think that way. We only do one case at a time, I know we will never end the corruption, and violence, hell if we did Stella we all would be out of a job".

"Oh I would love to be out of a job, for that reason Mac". Mac smiled, and put his hand out to her. "Stella I'm sorry, your upset, you are right, I should have called you".

"No, I was overreacting, I'm sorry". They both laugh, and sat talking for a while, and Mac, whispered, "I will go , and let you do your job".

Stella hugged him, "Our Job Mac, I can't wait until you return, I hate being in charge". He smiled, and whispered, "I will be back soon count on it". Stella walked to the door, and Steven and Lindsay walked in, and smiled.

Steven said goodbye to Stella, and he was walking Mac to the elevator. Lindsay ran over, 'Mac I will be home at 6, maybe we can watch a movie tonight after dinner"?

"I can think of other things I would rather do"

Lindsay and Steven laughed, "Ok Mac in your dreams, love you". Mac got in the elevator, and Lindsay waved, as the door shut. She walked back to Stella's office, and smiled, "are you ok Stella"?

"Yes, I'm fine, I was just upset that I wasn't asked before the tape was released to the news media"

"Mac just thought it was best to warn the Dealers, but we know they won't listen, and probably someone will die tonight. I hope this guy stops, what he is doing isn't really getting justice for his loved one"

Stella smiled, "Well he or she doesn't agree".

"Stella what did you and Steven talk about earlier"?

"Oh I was flirting with him, he is so sweet. I really like Steven, I would like to go out with him, if it won't upset Mac"

"Why don't you drop by tonight, me and Mac are going to spend time alone in our room"

'Oh Lindsay is Mac ready for that"? Lindsay sat down, "to watch a movie, maybe you, and Steven can have a date out in the living room".

"Well it might end up in Steven's room, and than what"?

"OMG Stella you are naughty girl".

"Not really I'm lonely what the heck".

"Ok we will have dinner, and you are coming home with me ok".

"Sure lets get some work done, so we can leave on time". They were going through files, when Sheldon walked in.

"Stella they are playing the tapes on four stations, at 5 pm tonight".

"Ok thanks Sheldon".

"Sid said he is going over the tape, he says it is a man, that made it".

"I thought so, but who is the man Sheldon, can you bring him to me"? Sheldon smiled, "I will but when I don't know". Danny and Don walked into the office, "Where is Mac"?

"He went home, he was tired", Lindsay smiled,

'Darn, I wanted to say hi".

"Did you guys, get any thing today talking to the people on the streets"?

"No not really, I need a shower, after talking to these people. They don't have a clue, they are not scared even after all the deaths"

"Great well we tried , we better find this guy before he gets himself killed".

Don laughed, "He is a killer, and we feel sorry for him". Danny touched his shoulder, "He was the good guy, that lost it".

Danny walked out, and Don said he was going to see if Sid had anything for them. Sheldon smiled, "Mac is really looking good, he will be back soon".

"I hope so Sheldon, we need him". Stella got up, and walked out of the office.

"Lindsay I didn't mean she wasn't great at the job"

"She is fine, she is just feeling the stress, and she really does hope Mac returns soon".

Steven got Mac home, and helped him into bed. Mac laid back he didn't want to admit it, he was exhausted, but he was getting stronger everyday".

Steven helped him change, and Mac said he was going to have a nap. Steven walked out shutting the door, and Mac shut his eyes, and fell asleep.

Chapter 35

Mac woke up to Lindsay touching his face. "Oh what a sight for sore eyes, I was dreaming about you"

"Really what was the dream about"?

"Oh our wedding you looked so sweet, and we had a problem"

"Oh know what was the problem"?

"Your dress didn't fit". Lindsay laughed, "Oh nice Mac, I'm already growing look".

"You don't look big girl, I can't wait until you do". Lindsay smiled, "Stella is here, she is going to have a date night with Steven".

"Oh really date night here, creepy".

"You be nice, we are going to have dinner with them"

"Why can't they have dinner alone, and we can have dinner in bed"?

"No Stella bought Chinese food, we are not letting her down".

"Ok, get Steven, I don't want your help getting out of bed". Lindsay got Steven, he helped Mac, get to the kitchen table. He sat down, and smiled, "Yum spring rolls". Stella laughed, "I know this is your favorite take out".

"It is my favorite by far". They all sat down eating. Stella smiled at Mac, he shook his head as he saw Steven staring at Stella.

"Steven eat Buddy, she bought the food".

"Oh Mac, I'm eating, you eat, you need your strength".

"Sure do, me and Lindsay have big plans tonight".

"Yeah watching TV, is big plans". Stella touched Mac"s arm, "Oh poor Mac, you have to get all better ok".

"You both be good out here, when we go watch TV"

"We will Mac promise".

They finished dinner, Steven brought out dessert, and they had coffee. Steven helped Mac get back in bed, and Lindsay helped Stella clean up. Steven asked Mac if he needed anything?

"Yeah some loving from my girl, but she is scared".

"Mac don't rush things, but it will happen soon".

"Yeah right she will get bigger, and not want to". Steven laughed, "Oh right, I never had that problem before".

"Yeah I bet your such a stud Steven".

"You and Lindsay have fun, and if you need anything just yell"

"Yeah I will, be good Steven".

"Goodnight Mac, you be good". Steven walked out, and Lindsay walked past him, "Stella is in the living room, have fun Steven". Lindsay walked into the bedroom, and she walked over to Mac. She grabbed the converter, and turned the TV on. He snuggled close, and she put on a Detective Drama, they both loved those. Mac would try to solve the case before the TV Detectives did. Lindsay would laugh, he always guessed the killer he was good. She snuggled real close, and he whispered, "Am I going to get lucky Lindsay"?

"Mac no".

"OK you can't blame a guy for trying can you"?

"Mac watch the show". She smiled as he laughed, and they both watched the TV.

Steven brought Stella a glass of wine, while he had a ginger ale.

"Ginger ale Steven"?

"Oh yes, I'm on duty, I can't drink"

Stella smiled, "I'm having wine this has been a long day". She took a sip, and Steven sat beside her. She snuggled close, she loved just being in his arms. He was talking, she just listened, she just wanted to hear normal everyday things, she was tired of hearing about killings, and murders. He took her glass putting it down, and touched her chin. She smiled, "What are you doing Steven"?

"This". He brought his lips over hers, and they kissed, and she never whispered, "Oh kiss me again Steven". He smiled, and he did just that.
