When his mother swore in front of him, Danny winced. He couldn't help it. Val was standing in his room and he could practically feel the anger seething off of her. A quick glance to Rachel let him know she felt as lost as he did.
Quickly, Danny raised his hands up. He was standing there in his underwear and Rachel was wearing pretty much nothing but one of his shirts and maybe explanations wouldn't really work from the weight of evidence in front of him, but he had to try.
"Mum, no-!" was the first thing he could even think to say. Then, almost unconsciously, he took a few steps forward to place himself between Val and Rachel. "We-- we were just talking! Rachel needed a friend, Mum. That's all, okay!?" God he hoped it was okay. "Nothing happened. Mum. Nothing happened."
