Jessica drove to Danny's and knocked on his door.
He quickly opened it and saw her standing there. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying the whole way over.

"Oh Jess.."

A sob escapes her lips and she practically throws herself on Danny.

"She said she can't forgive me.. Danny, I love her!"

"I know you do, Jessica."

"How do I fix this?"

"I don't know, Jess. I wish I knew, but I don't."

"I just hate myself so much!  I was treated like shit for years, and now I have this amazing wife and I fucking ruin it!"

"It'll be okay.  She'll see that you really do love her, Jess.. and she'll forgive you.  It'll take time, but it'll happen.  I've watched you two on set before.. Jessica, she loves you.  It's not over."

"You really think so?"

"I do."

"Thanks.." Jessica sniffles.

Danny loves Jessica with all his heart, but he knows he isn't the one for her.  She was in love with Sarah.  For now he was going to be there for her as her best friend and father of her child.

"Thank you letting me stay here. I didn't get to grab anything, do you have a T-shirt I could burrow?"

"Sure."

Danny grabbed an oversized shirt and brought it back to her.

"Thanks."

"No problem. You can stay in the guest bedroom. It's pretty nice, you have a bed, bathroom and a tv."

"What more can you ask for?" Jessica chuckles.

"Yeah." Danny laughs.

"Why don't you change into comfortable clothes and we can talk?"

"Okay.."

Jessica did just what he said and came back to the living room.

"I think I need to call Sam and ask him to keep the kids for a while longer. I need to find a place."

"Well when you first called I actually went to ask if there were any available apartments, and there is one just a few doors down.. if you'd like to live here. I just thought I'd help you out a little."

"That does help. Thank you, Danny."

"No problem. We can look at it tomorrow."

"Okay.. even if it's just for a little while.. I just need something."

"Where are you going after this?"

"Well we were going back to Minnesota in January, but now.. I don't know.. I might take the kids anyway, but I need to figure out where she's gonna be because I still want to see Dylan. Then I need to figure out where you're gonna be because we have the baby. Oh gosh.. my life is so fucked up!" Jessica chuckles.

"I'll follow you wherever, I don't have anywhere I have to be, and like I said before I want to be involved as much as you'll let me."

"Thanks.
I'm gonna call Sam. At least that'll buy me a few more days.. I don't know how to tell the kids about all of this."

Jessica left the room to call Sam.  She told him she and Sarah were going through something and that she needed a few days.  She didn't mention Danny or the baby.  Sam agreed to keep the kids for a few more days, which was a huge relief to Jessica.
