Hello, yes I am back. I have a brand new story and brand new dangers but still the love of McDanno. Please review only my second fanfiction so tell me the truth. read review tell me what you think. Thanks bye :)
"Boss, grow a set and do it!" Kono exclaimed as Steve wondered back and forth in her office making her slightly dizzy, his hand rubbing his neck as he walked the length of the office then back and again. Steve rubbed his hands through his hair before throwing himself down in one of the many spare chairs in Kono's office. He had ever really noticed how UN her it was. No surfing photos, no trophies only her graduating certificate and a few pictures of her Five-0 Ohana. He threw his head back exasperated and covered his face with his hands, his stubble brushing lightly against him.
"What if it's a no? I don't think I could survive that? What if they say its way to soon and I ruin the relationship?" Steve muffled through his hands that were still covering his face.
"He has really gotten to you hasn't he?" Kono replied suppressing a giggle. In the four years she had known Steve she had never ever seen him this worked up or this upset. He was Steve for god's sake the man was like a fort, you would have to use an army just to break down a brick from the wall he had enclosed himself in. There was only one person that had managed to get over that wall to Steve on their own. "Danny is a complex guy but hello you guys have been together how long?"
Steve took his face out of his hand and looked up through his long black eyelashes and stared at her, he knew exactly and he meant exactly how long they had been together, but how many digits could he get down to without freaking her out? "8 months, 23 days, 6 hours and I suppose 27 minutes?" there was no supposing about It, it was actually 27 minutes and 36 seconds, 37, 38….
"Boss… Boss… BOSS!" shouted Kono, trying to snap Steve out of his thoughts of how and he and Danny finally got together. It had been so sudden.
Steve had wanted it for so long but even he knew that he wasn't the best at letting on what he was feeling, but he had always had feelings for Danny that stretched beyond a normal partnership. One night they were both working really late Chin and Kono had both left as they were on for an early start the next day. It was Danny's fault wearing the dress trousers that were too tight around his ass, the way they hugged him THERE just played with Steve's mind, and he hadn't noticed he had just been staring but Danny had.
"When you have stopped gawking at my ass, care to come and work on the case because the sooner we finish the sooner we can get back to yours." He said in a way too smooth voice, not taking his eyes off of the case file but Steve's mouth had fallen open. Did Danny have feeling for him too? Or was he just joking. Danny turned around to face Steve, he didn't have enough time to compose himself his mouth was still open and that gave Danny cause to smirk. "Caught on yet McGarrett?" asked Danny amused folding his arms covering his fantastic chest in that tight shirt.
"Wait you're serious?" Steve replied bemused staring at his partner who could not keep down a smile; Steve was his biggest weakness, next to Grace of course. "But you are straight?" he said a little too forcefully.
"Do you want me to be straight because I'm pretty sure I like you which mean I'm bisexual at least?" Steve was amazed at how calm Danny was being about this why hadn't he said anything before? "Well actually that's not true is it?" Danny interrupted his thoughts and the atmosphere immediately changed but before Steve could ask what that meant, Danny continued "I don't and haven't liked any other guy apart from you so I guess I'm Stevesexual…"It was very amusing for Danny to watch the expression on Steve's face to change from shock to relief to lust. Steve stepped closer to Danny as he uncrossed his arms and stared up into Steve's deep blue eyes.
"Why did you not say anything?" Steve asked as he put his hands on Danny's hips drawing him in closer until he could feel the sweetness of Danny's breath on his neck.
"Because I didn't want to pressure you when you weren't ready, I mean this is you just noticing your feelings for me now. I'm telling you McGarrett I know you too well." With that Danny had pulled Steve down to him and they had lost each other in the most passionate kiss they had ever had. All they remember was when they finally pulled away the paper work they were doing was all over the floor of HQ.
"OW! Jesus Kono what was that for?" he asked rubbing the back of his head where he had been unfairly hit and hard. Kono was wearing a very very amused face. What the hell had he been doing while he was thinking of Danny? "What?" he asked very nervously.
"You went in a bit of a daze boss," she said suppressing the giggles she had contracted "and you kept saying Danny's name." she said letting go and starting to laugh. Steve just threw his head back in dismay how had he allowed himself to get that wrapped up in his thoughts of Danny? He felt like a love-struck teenager and that was not Steve, it was never Steve. So what was it about Danny that made him act like this? Maybe it was the fact he had never been in love before? Before he could answer his own question he felt something get pushed into his hand. Kono was standing over him, giving him "the look." She had mastered it well.
"What is this?" He questioned looking down at the piece of paper she had forced into his hand. On it was an address in Waikiki.
"It's my jewellers, the one that engraved this." She said pulling out a long necklace that hung around her neck but always stayed hidden. It was a beautiful silver pendant that had Kono engraved on it in swirly writing. It really was a piece of art. Hauling him to his feet and dragging him out to the bullpen and towards the glass doors.
"Am I really going to do this?" he asked allowing himself to be towed by Kono to his truck; she even put him key in the ignition for him. Pushing him into the car and slamming the door as he rolled down the window.
"Yes. Now go get your man a ring." She said before turning the key and stepping back. Steve pulled out of his parking space, the amount of rates his heart beat had increased was probably not healthy but he didn't care. it was more adrenaline than anything and he just wanted to get there quicker. Before Kono went back inside he shouted to her.
"Hey Kono?" he shouted as she reached the glass doors, turning to face him "Thanks sister!" with that he pulled out of the car park heading for the address he had given her. I hope this will work he thought to himself. Kono could not keep the smile off her face as she headed back up to the office but she had to banish it as she saw Chin and Danny who had obviously emerged from their offices.
"Where is Yogi then?" Danny asked leaning back against the computer as Chin looked through an old case file then glanced to the pile of paperwork over flowing his desk and sighed giving up, turning all his attention to his cousin and Danny. Make it sound convincing she warned herself.
"He has just gone to get some malasadas, he won't be long, you know the boss loves them ha-ha." She finished, Danny and Chin didn't give it another thought because it was true, Steve loved malasadas but he was going for something way better. Kono couldn't help but smile to herself.
The jewellers Kono picked was only 10 minutes from the office so Steve was there soon enough. Now the biggest challenge he had to face, picking a ring. It couldn't be that hard right? He just kept repeating that to himself as he pulled up outside and glanced at the building. You can do this, you have faced killers, psychopaths and Danny without coffee you will be fine. Hauling himself out the truck and slamming the door behind him, he took a deep breath and walked through the glass doors.
Steve had never actually been in a jewellery store before so this was really new territory. Why hadn't he taken Kono with him?
"Hello sir, can I help you with something you look like a lost puppy?" Steve heard as he turned to see an older woman probably mid 50's in what he assumed was the stores uniform and a name badge which read Sue. Snapping out of his daze again, thinking that he had better answer her.
"Oh sorry, well actually yes I could use some help, I am wanting an engagement ring for my partner and I have no idea where to even start?!" Steve finished feeling ashamed he had already caved.
"Alrighty dear what's his name?" she asked through a kind smile. Steve was amazed she hadn't given away any sign of judging. Steve was so used to saying partner and people giving him a look as in are you kidding your gay?
"Danny, Danny Williams" He said nonchalantly stuffing his hands in his pockets and staring around him, not sure what to do with himself, new territory. Give me a psychotic killer any day he thought to himself. She gave him and understanding nod.
"Come on pet let's find that perfect ring eh?" she said grabbing his arm and pulling him over to a display case, which had at least 200 rings inhabiting it. He stood there, silent while Sue picked rings to show him, giving her the occasional shake but otherwise staying silent. Then she pulled IT out. It was plain silver and elegant but it was right. Steve didn't know why he just did, it was perfect. He couldn't describe it, luckily he didn't have to Sue had caught on. "Come on dear I will go get a box and meet you at the counter." She said pointing Steve to the counter.
Waiting for Sue to return with a ring box Steve was washed over with a wave of relief. He had finally found the perfect ring for Danny. "Honey you wanting it engraved? It will only take two minutes, depending on how much you are wanting engraved." He was awoken by Sue.
Steve though on it for a minute, "yes actually could I get SJM engraved on the inside please?" This way Danny would know Steve was only his.
With a smile as sweet as six pence she replied, "Of course Hun, Danny will love it." and she disappeared into the back of the store again. Steve took this time to look around the store and observe all the people around him, an elderly couple looking at the watches and a couple of young girls looking at the diamond rings. Nothing was going to ruin this, but he was still shuffling about on his feet.
a couple of minute later Sue had returned and was behind the back of the counter, she showed him the engraving on the ring and Steve couldn't help but smile, it was perfect. Sue started taking Steve's details and when he had finished paying she handed over the ring box. "I cannot thank you for everything you have done Sue," he said putting the ring box in the inside pocket of his jacket.
"Don't mention it pet, that's what I'm here for and why they keep me around," Sue replied rolling her hazel eyes and flattening down her greying hair, before giving him her kind smile.
Steve opened his mouth to thank her again but was met with a sudden thud of metal on glass and the familiar sound of a bullet tearing through the air, and the shatter of glass as a display case shattered beside him. Before he could turn around to assess the situation he felt the barrel of a gun press against the back of his neck. He had left his gun in the truck as well as his extra piece. He had never felt so defenceless and vulnerable.
"EVERYBODY DOWN! YOU TRY TO RUN, I WILL KILL YOU. YOU MOVE WITHOUT BEING TOLD SO, I KILL YOU. YOU BREATH LOUD AND I. WILL. KILL. YOU! GOT IT?" A man shouted from behind Steve before Steve got a swipe from his attackers gun on the back of his head, crippling Steve to the floor. Then and only then did he get a proper look of what was going on and started making mental notes. Five guys wearing masks and gloves, all armed with at least one extra gun, they had bolted the door there was no way you were getting in from the outside. There was at least 6 other people in the shop not to mention those in the back. "WHAT YOU STARING AT ASSHOLE?" the first gunman shouted striking a kick to Steve's stomach making him wince. "CONGRATUALTIONS YOU ARE OUR HOSTAGES AND LETS SAY THE ODDS OF YOU GETTING OUT ALIVE IS UNLIKELY. SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT." The man finished before letting his one of his partners take over, and heading out the back.
The partner walked over to Steve while the other hostages, including Sue were gathered together. He knelt down beside Steve and crouched by his ear, grabbing Steve by his hair, to pull his head closer to his mouth, the barrel of his gun digging into his throat and whispered "You are dead."
