My second try at a story about our boys. This one is a bit happier and cheerier than the first one.

"We are going to do what !" the Jersey detective stares at his partner with eyes as wide as the Nevada desert.

"O come on Danny, it will be fun! You are the one always nagging and going on about how we have to do things together as partners." the Seal smirks at his partner. The smile on his face as big as the Nevada desert.

"Yes you Neanderthal! Spend time so that I can teach you proper police regulations and procedures. Like when not to hang a suspect from the roof or shoot first and then ask questions. What procedure to follow while waiting for our back up, our 2 very capable colleaugues named Chin and Kono! We don't go in blindly and hope the suspects will stop when they see your 1000 yard stare. That's why we need to spend time together !"

"Guys, guys ! Steve what have you done to Danny ! We could hear him yelling all the way down in the lobby." Chin enquiries as to the Jersey's current state of upsetness.

"Yes please McGarrett. Tell our friends here why I am so excited. Tell them what scheme you've come up with now !" Danny shouts as he flails his arms trying to get his point across.

"It's not so bad guys. Danny is always on about how we need to spend some time together and what could be more perfect than the HPD's annual picnic. I thought we could go and represent Five O and get to relax and unwind. Gracie could come along and we could join in the activities and carnival they have planned."

"That sounds like an excellent idea Steve." Kono chips in, excited by the idea of unlimited candyfloss and candy corn. "Why are you so upset over it Danny?"

"Why am I so upset ! This jolly giant left out a very important detail babe. He entered us in the 3 legged race ! Have you seen the difference in our height ! How on earth do you think this is going to work ! The laws of physics are not on our side here babe."

"Come on Danny, surely you don't want Grace to think that you discriminate against tall people and that you have a Napoleon complex !" Steve utters knowing it is going to get his partner worked up into the mother of all rants.

"Excuse me ! What did you just say ! I don't have a Napoleon complex! I may not be a six foot giant but that has not stopped me from getting 87 succesfull convictions under my belt! Those idiots underestimated me and my compactness and that led to their downfall my dear friend. Now if you don't want me to slap you over the head .."

"You've got to reach my head first Danno if you want to slap it." a very brave Steve interrupts his friend.

Choosing to ignore that remark for the sake of his own health Danny continues "then you will call the organisers and tell them that we will participate in the race but Grace will be my partner. You can go ahead and find another beanstalk to compete in the race with you ! The loser gets to buy the winners supper every week and because I know Gracie and I will win, you will buy her shaved ice on the weekends she visits as well !"

"You're on smurf! I already know where I will be having supper for the next week." Steve says looking over his shoulders as he exits the room. Danny took on the wrong man ! This seal was going to find the perfect partner and the Jersey half pint was going to meet his match. SuperSeals don't back down !

"O cuz ! This is going to be good ! Maybe we can sell tickets." Chin snorts as they leave to get on with the business of keeping the island safe. Knowing that the weekend entertainment is going to be exceptional.
