It was bound to happen. Danny knew it was, but he had hoped that it wouldn't.

Danny had been sidelined and stuck in the offices of 5-0 due to his knee injury. He had been helping the team from there and had given explicit instructions for Steve not to use his car, under no condition what so ever. Off course the Super Seal, being his usual troglodyte, decided to ignore him and ended up wrecking the silver Camaro that Danny loved so much, just a week before Grace's three-day long birthday getaway to the North shore and his romantic weekend with Michelle.

For the first time in a long time, he was speechless. Seeing the Camaro in front of him completely wrecked, for some reason, hurt him physically, but he had to admit he was a bit relieved when Kono had called and told him that Steve was okay. Just a few bumps and bruises was what Kono had told him he had. Still, part of him wanted to strangle him for wrecking his car.

Danny saw Steve walk up to him, a sheepish look on his face, his arm on a sling. He wanted to scream at him, to tell him off, to kick his ass, but he couldn't. He was just happy his best friend was okay.

- "Danny…"

- "Don't. Just… Don't." – Danny said, his eyes glued to the car, trying to figure out if any of it was salvageable.

- "Danny, I'm sorry. But… it wasn't entirely my fault." – Steve whispered, trying to justify his actions and the result of said actions.

- "Oh. It wasn't, was it? Really? Because from what I hear, you went all Super Seal and I end up without a car, after I specifically said NOT TO TAKE MY CAR!" – Danny yelled frustrated.

Taking a deep breath, he let out a sigh and took a good look at his friend. Steve had cuts on his face and arms, bruises already forming, his arm securely tucked in on a sling across his chest.

- "Listen, I'm just glad you're okay and it didn't end up being worse for you. But did you really had to wreck it?" – Danny whined his question, already knowing the answer.

Steve didn't answer, he just stared at the floor. Danny could tell he was feeling bad for what had happened, as he should be, but he decided that he wasn't going to beat him up anymore. After all, the worse was still to come.

- "How can I make things right, Danno?" – Steve asked, clearly wanting to make things better between them.

- "Aside from getting me a new car? You can start by being the one to tell your niece that she doesn't have a car to go to the North Shore next week and Michelle we're not going anywhere this weekend."

- "Wh-what?" – Steve eyes went wide. He completely forgot that Danny had made plans to go away this weekend with Michelle and that Grace was taking the car the very next Monday for a three-day long getaway with her best friends for her birthday. "I'm screwed.", he thought before letting out a sigh of defeat, nodding his head in agreement as they walked back inside the palace.

Steve saw Danny reaching for his phone and dialing Michelle. He heard him tell her to grab Grace and meet him at Steve's house for dinner. Steve knew why Danny had chosen his house, he wanted Stephanie there as well. "Oh, that's cold.", he thought as he walked past his best friend and into his office, "This is going to be a long night."
