McGarrett House, Honolulu, HI - Friday

[hatesparadise]

Yesterday was Steve's first holiday with the extended Williams clan in New Jersey and the only reason he wasn't dead was probably because Charlie was also there to split the attention of everyone. At least that was Danny's assumption.

But they were back in Hawaii now and the kids back with Rachel. Well. Charlie was. Grace had immediately run off to spend the day with her friends at a mall somewhere.

"You good, babe? Need a hand?"

He was just being a jerk to poor, traumatized Steve.

[for the guy!]

Danny sighed and pulled him close for that. "You're nuts."

[grenadesandohana]

"I just don't want to learn that I can't do something any more halfway through trying it," Steve said. "Not with your life on the line, or the kids', or Chin and Kono and Grovers'."

[hatesparadise]

"And I don't want you to get yourself nearly killed again," Danny replied.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve leaned in for a slow kiss. "I don't want to get killed either. I have a lot depending on me."

[hatesparadise]

"Don't go borrowing trouble then," Danny grumbled.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve kissed him again. "I'll do my best not to."

[hatesparadise]

"Good," Danny grumbled, kissing him back intently.

[grenadesandohana]

"I want to be with you until we're both old," Steve said.

And not just, say, hiding the gray.

[hatesparadise]

"That is the plan," Danny agreed, envisioning them as old men on the beach.

[grenadesandohana]

"We clean enough, you think?" Steve asked, grinning down at him.

[hatesparadise]

"Yeah, yeah," Danny replied, kissing him again.

[grenadesandohana]

"This is good too," Steve murmured, kissing him back.

[hatesparadise]

"We're gonna lay on the couch and not move for the evening with a game on in the background," Danny suggested. Because he enjoying cuddling so very much.

[grenadesandohana]

"That sounds amazing," Steve said. "We can see if Rainbow will deliver."

[hatesparadise]

"They better." Living in a pre-Covid world made that iffy.

[grenadesandohana]

"If not, I bet I could pay Jerry twenty bucks to deliver it for us," Steve said.

[hatesparadise]

"It would be getting him to leave again that'd be the issue," Danny said, turning the water off.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve chuckled as he reached for the towels. "Good point."

[hatesparadise]

"Maybe we brave the road just for a bit." Oh, that was jinxing them with Honolulu traffic.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve wrinkled his nose as he wrapped the towel around his waist. "But...pants."

[hatesparadise]

"Oh, I forgot you were a casual nudist," Danny shot back with an amused look as he grabbed his own towel to do the same.

[grenadesandohana]

"I haven't heard complaint," Steve said.

[hatesparadise]

"It's not the worst view," Danny replied with a grin.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve laughed. "I knew it," he said, leaning in for a kiss.

[hatesparadise]

Danny hummed into that kiss, lingering for another moment. "Do not let it go to your head."
