A bit about myself: I am fanfic's fan, I read a lot of them and I write too.
I wanted to try with Hawaii 5-0 because I don't find what I'm looking for, about Steve and Catherine, their first meeting, how they known each other for so long and since when... it's time to change that...
It's not finished yet but I've already wrote a great part of the story.
It's a test... A small preview, just to see if you like it!
Enjoy and feel free to review...
One last thing, English isn't my 1st language, and I don't have a beta (but if you want... tell me!)
Hawaii 5-0
The Hardest Way To Remember...
Chapter 1
Six years ago...
USS ENTERPRISE - September 19th, 2006
She had taken her place at dawn and a faintness had invaded her, an ice-cold shiver, a knot in her stomach which had become intensified all the morning, until the Admiral called her. When she had seen his face, his grave air, she had understood.
The words that his superior had pronounced at this moment had remained burnt in her head forever.
She had suppressed a sob, he had suggested that she had a break, but she had refused, she had taken back her place, she was a soldier, she had a mission, there was no place for feelings, and she had kept all this pain locked deep in her heart.

USS ENTERPRISE - September 21st, 2012
It was a long time ago, but sometimes at night when she woke up, when she was alone and when she missed him, she heard them, these words pronounced by his superior: " Lieutenant Commander McGarrett is reported MIA", reported missing... Steve was reported missing!
H 5-0
It was rare that she finds herself in her office's superior, the ensign who had welcomed her, had said that he would be late, and that she could sit down waiting for him.
She was lost on her thought, her eyes fixed on the horizon, and early this morning, the sky had mixed with the ocean, she had thought a lot, and she had made a decision, the most important of all her life, the most difficult too, and it had taken time, almost 10 years, or a little more...
" Lieutenant? "
Mentally, she remembered every moments which had led her here today, it was a particular date, it was 6 years ago, already 6 years...
" Lieutenant? "
And then very soon, she would have the choice to enter on another ship, and she didn't want to make it anymore, she didn't want to stay far away from all which had mattered for her, she had felt that she had made the good decision, her decision!
" Catherine? "
She jumped, lost in her thoughts, she hadn't heard the Admiral called her three times. He invited her to sit down, he took the place behind his desk.
" Are you sure that it's what you want to do? "
She shook her head, no, she wasn't sure about that, but on a second thought, she knew that she couldn't stay far away from the one who made beat her heart, and who had changed everything in her life.
" Yes! "

Iraq - September 19th, 2006
Everything had arrived so fast, it had been taken in an ambush, many of his friends, as him, had been caught in the crossfire, they had fought, many had fallen and suddenly, a terrible pain had seized him, he couldn't breathe any more...
Their captain had called the other teams, those who were the closest, hoping a fast arrival of their part, they couldn't hold the position for a long time, if they couldn't come to help them.
It seemed that the time was slowing down, that they were there for hours, when a helicopter, then two, then three had arrived on the scene, while he had managed to get closer to the place of the extraction, he had felt a pair of hands pulling him behind, the face he had crossed at this moment wasn't the one of his team-mates, he had been trapped, he had closed his eyes, had thought of his father, Mary, and Catherine... Catherine...
He had seen the three helicopters had disappeared.
Then he had lost consciousness.
