Work Text:
Maria, she shared his interests in music, chess, and obscure facts. She was a nurse, loved helping people and they met while he was volunteering. She was helping him through the cloud of depression caused by Angel's death, the damn shooting, his money problems, and everything else that was going on. She was helping him work through it all and become joyful again. Maria was sweet, got along great with the team, she made Hawkes smile. Danny should be happy that Sheldon had found Maria, but he wasn't. He wanted to be the one that made Sheldon smile, who listened to his facts and who he came home to. Danny wished that he had been able to pull Sheldon through, that they had helped each other pull through.
