Disclaimer: I don't own Hawaii 5-0...but if the guys don't come back next fall, you might find them in my attic...just sayin'.
I Did It My Way
For the first time since he'd joined 5-0, Danny was actually happy to go to work. Alright, that wasn't entirely true-he was always glad to go to work (it meant he was making money) because he did enjoy what he did, and enjoyed the company of his co-workers. But this day, he was really happy. Exstatic, actually. Okay, he was grinning like a kid at Christmas, but what the hell, he had good reason.
First, he was actually driving his car. That's right, for once Danny had control of the Camaro, the radio, and Steve had to deal with it from the passenger seat.
Second, he had Grace for the upcoming weekend. Not just Friday night through Sunday, but all of Friday, thanks to a school holiday. It seemed Rachel was in a rare good mood. Maybe Danny would send Stan a thank you card. On second thought...Danny shuddered at the implications.
And third, the entire 5-0 team had two weeks off. Not off in the way they had the time to themselves, but it was even better than that. For the next two weeks, they wouldn't take any cases barring something like an impending terrorist attack or the gononer being shot at; instead, 5-0 would be attending a cop convention.
A cop convention!
So yeah, Danny had every right to grin like he was.
Steve was well aware of his partner's grin, well aware of the cause. He stared at Danny a minute then shook his head.
"Why are you so excited about this? It's a convention."
"A cop convention. A convention full of police officers who, quite possibly, actually follow procedure and protocol. A convention full of cops from the mainland, more importantly, from Jersey! You know, this is the third happiest day of my life." Through the entire speech, one of Danny's hands waved through the air, punctuating his points.
Steve grinned over at him. "Let me guess, both of the others involve Grace?"
Danny's open palm slapped the steering wheel. "Both of the others involve Grace." He glanced at Steve, looked back at the road. "Of course, you'd be more excited if it were a bunch of Army guys getting together to talk about...whatever Super SEALs talk about. Probably how to pick off a target from three hundred feet while fighting hand to hand or something."
"How do you keep confusing this? It's Navy. And no, I would not be more excited about a SEAL convention."
Danny waved Steve's comment away without concern.
"Okay, fine. But this, this will be great. Trust me. And hey, you might actually learn something."
Danny parked the car and they both headed for the hotel.
Black-Angel-001: yes, these sorts of things do take place. fairly short chapter, but that shouldn't last too long. expect the next chapter sunday!
