Your Turn
"Danny, please... don't go." She says as he walks to the door. She reaches for his hand but he forcefully pulls it away.
"What do you want, Jessica?"
Jessica looks into his eyes and begins to sob uncontrollably.
"You know what, forget about it... forget about it all. There won't be a wedding, Jessica. I'm not marrying you. You think our relationship is some type of game that's all about you. I'm tired of your shit. I can't marry you. I won't marry you." He says forcefully. Saying this was so hard for Danny, but it had to be done.
Hearing this broke Jessica's heart into a million pieces. She did want Danny, but now seeing him so angry she couldn't say she did. She was going to come home and apologize... she was going to marry him. But, she was too late. She messed up and messed up bad. There was obviously many problems that couldn't be left untouched. Danny made Jessica feel like a horrible person. He was right about everything. Jessica didn't think, she did. Now, everything was over.
"Danny, I love you." She pleas
Danny loved Jessica too. He had never loved someone so much in his life. He didn't think it was possible to be this in love. He struggled to say he loves her at this moment. He was too angry and heartbroken. Danny was beginning to realize that Jessica was the problem, not him. He was doing everything right.
"I'm going home. I'm taking the twins back to New York. It's up to you if you want to come home to us or not. But either way, there will not be a wedding." He says sternly
"So that's it? You're just going to throw it all away? Everything we have." She says throwing her hands in the air
"I didn't throw shit away, Jessica. You did. You just want me to call it off so you aren't the bad guy." He points to her and his face becomes red. Words couldn't describe how disappointed he was. He couldn't do what Albert said. He couldn't fight for a bride who didn't want him.
Jessica cries even more as Danny stands at the door getting ready to leave.
"It's exhausting loving you, but it's addicting at the same time. After all of this shit you've caused I've realized that things need to be fixed. You are the problem here, not me. It's your choice if you want to fix things or not. I just don't understand what I ever did to give you doubts. I thought everything was just fine. We had a stable relationship. God this makes me so angry!" Danny turns to the wall and bangs on it with his fist. He leans his body onto the wall and cries. Jessica stands across from him crying as well. This moment was emotional. Neither Jessica or Danny knew where their relationship was going from here.
"Our children... our innocent children. They need you and you ran away. Where did any of this get you, Jessica? What were you trying to accomplish? Because whatever it was, I hope you got what you wanted. You did this all and I hate you for it! We were so close... but you... you threw everything we had away. I want to marry you one day. I wanted to marry you this weekend. Now I don't. And I hate myself for not fighting for you, but I can't, I just can't. It's hard to fight for something that doesn't want you."
"Danny, I want you... I want you so bad. What I did was stupid, and I'm sorry. It was selfish. I wasn't thinking. I really love you. With everything I have. How I've treated you... it wasn't right. If I could take back all the shit I've done I would. I'm so sorry... I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry! I can't help being scared... I reacted the wrong way." Jessica walks to him and pulls on his shirt. She tries to make things right. Seeing Danny so close to leaving scared her. Now that he was leaving, she realized even more how much she loved him and needed him. Danny wasn't going to budge.
He pushes her away lightly and opens the door. "I'm not doing this. Not now. If you want to fix this, I will see you in New York. That is where I will be with the twins. Until then, don't talk to me. And most importantly, don't expect to see me at the alter. It's your turn to fight for us Jessica, not mine." He opens the door fully and grabs his duffle bad. Before Jessica could catch him he closes the door in her face.
Jessica had never felt a pain like this before. She fell to her knees and cried for Danny. She wanted him so bad, but because of her actions she threw it all away. Jessica couldn't believe herself. She wanted to fight for Danny, but what if she didn't deserve him? Jessica reflected on their relationship... Jessica was the problem. Danny did everything right, but Jessica didn't. Before Jessica could fix things with Danny, she needed to fix things with herself.

The next day-
Danny got a direct flight back to Minnesota. He had to stay a night in Hawaii. When he stayed the night there he cancelled the wedding. He called guest after guest. By the time he arrived in Minnesota there would be no wedding. He would go to Dorthy's, get the twins, then fly back to New York.
"Dada here!" Scarlett says looking out of the living room window.
Dorthy and Albert run to the door and open it for Danny. There was no Jessica. When they didn't see her they only suspected the worst.
"Danny, where's Jessica?" Dorthy says holding her chest.
She huffs and shakes his head. "I'm sorry you two had to be in the middle of this all. I had to call everything off." He walks in and Dorthy and alberts eyes follow him.
"What do you mean?" Dorthy cries
"Jessica and I are not getting married... I'm done fighting. I'm not marrying a woman who second guesses everything. If she hesitates marrying me, why would I want to marry her? I'm taking the twins and going back home." He says as he begins to gather their toys scattered throughout the living room.
"Danny, wait... you can't just leave. Stop and think." Albert says
"I've thought. I've called the venues, everyone."
"But what about Jessica?"
"She's not my problem." He snaps
"How could you say that? She's your girlfriend." Dorthy yells
"How could I? She caused all of this. Dorthy, I'm sorry. But I won't marry her. It's her choice if she wants to come back to New York and make things right. It's her turn to fix things, not mine. I asked her, but she couldn't tell me what she wanted. Dorthy I'm tired of all this."
"Where mama!" Wyatt says to Danny
"Mommy is away." He says sternly
Dorthy and Albert sit back and watch as Danny frantically gathers their things. Dorthy cried softly. She was so confused how everything could come crashing down so quickly.
"Mama back!" Scarlett yells
"I don't know when she's coming back! I don't know anything!" He shouts
