Hey all!

So like a few other people, I gotta say I was slightly disappointed with the ending of this weeks episode. Don't get me wrong I loved the episode, I mean those scenes with Steve worrying about Danny and then the scenes with Grace and in the truck were great, but I thought they really missed a great opportunity with the reunion scene. I'm sure they were short on time but I thought it would've pushed the episode from amazing to really exceptional.

So here's a little scene I added! There's never enough McDanno bromance to go around! Enjoy :)

*****************************************H50*****************************

Steve stood there leaning against his truck, impatiently waiting for the plane transporting his partner back home to finally land.

He was angry. Oh, was he angry. It had taken all of his willpower not to punch Alexander in his smug face. He had come really close to it more than once, but he thought about the repercussions, and what might happen to Danny if he did.

He couldn't risk Danny's safety here. He needed his partner back and the longer it took, the more danger Danny would be in. So after he delivered his ultimatum, he made sure Alexander did his part and got Danny back. He knew his partner would be proud of his self control.

Steve didn't even want to think about what could've happened to Danny while he was in that prison. It hadn't been long, but an American and a cop no less in a South American prison was a target with legs. There was a part of him that had been terrified he was already too late, and that his best friend was already gone. But he wasn't. Thank god Danny was still alive. And now he was safe.

His head shot up as he finally heard the plane above him. He jumped forward and watched as it landed and skidded to a stop. Steve was running towards it before the door even opened all the way.

He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the hunched over figure limping slowly off the plane.

"Oh my god..." He whispered. "Danny..."

He ran towards his partner and immediately pulled the smaller man into a hug.

"It is so damn good to see you Danno!" He said.

He felt Danny pat him on the back a few times and he smiled. Danny was really back.

"It's good to see you too goof," Danny replied. "But you're killing me here."

"I'm sorry!" Steve said immediately, jumping back as if he'd been burned.

He finally got a good look at his partner and a deadly rage swept through him. Danny's face was covered in bruises and cuts, and he was holding his side like he had a few busted ribs.

"It's not as bad as it looks..." Danny tried to assure him.

"God man what did they do to you..." Steve replied.

"They definitely weren't very fond of me," he said. "Or my 'smart ass-ness' as one guard so eloquently put it. They didn't speak a lot of English to be honest."

"A guard did this to you?" Steve demanded.

"Most of it..." Danny replied. "They wanted money. They gave me one phone call to get it for them but-"

"But you called Grace to tell her how much you loved her," Steve finished for him. He expected nothing less. Danny always put Grace before everyone, including himself.

"Exactly," he replied. "I know you probably think that was a stupid move but I needed to say it. I needed her to hear it, just in case..."

Steve shook his head angrily. "I wish I could get on that plane and kill every single one of those bastards for what they did to you," he ground out.

"I know you do," Danny replied. "But you can't. And no one I care about is EVER going to Colombia again if I have anything to say about it. It is strictly off limits. I thought I hated Hawaii but there is no place I hate more than Colombia, mark my words!"

Steve chuckled. "Yeah, Kono and Lou weren't too fond of it either," he said.

"Wait, what?" Danny asked in surprise. "You guys went there? When? Why?"

"Well we had to do something to get you out of there didn't we?" Steve replied. "I'll explain everything later."

Danny nodded. He looked carefully at Steve. "There's something else you're not telling me," he said. "What is it? Was anyone hurt?"

"Danny..." Steve tried.

"What is it Steven?" Danny persisted.

"It's Chin... He was arrested by Coughlin for taking Gabriel's money..." Steve hesitantly told him.

"What?!" Danny gasped. "Where is he? Is he okay? I need to talk to Coughlin!"

"Slow down buddy!" Steve replied. "He's getting out right now. Kono went to go pick him up. Gabriel lied to Coughlin that he'd testify against Chin for a good deal, but he ended up killing him and fleeing custody. He's in the wind now."

"Oh wow..." Danny said. "Coughlin was a son of a bitch but he didn't deserve that... I'm glad Chin is exonerated though. He's too good of a man to go down like that. Especially for something that was my fault."

"Hey now," Steve argued. "It most definitely was not your fault. Besides, you're ohana. There's nothing any of us wouldn't do for you."

Danny smiled. "Likewise," he said. "Which is why you can wipe that guilty look off of your face Steve. I knew what I was getting myself into and I did it anyway. This isn't on you."

"How could you give yourself up like that Danny?" Steve demanded. He'd wanted to wait a while before grilling his partner but now that Danny had brought it up he couldn't hold back anymore. "Even for me!"

"You're my partner and you're my best friend," he replied with a wave of his hand, as if it should've been obvious. "What happened in Colombia had nothing to do with you and I wasn't about to let them pin it on you too."

"Nothing do with me?" Steve demanded. "Let me explain something to you Daniel. If it has to do with you, it has to do with me. End of story."

Danny laughed. He regretted it immediately when pain shot through his side and he winced.

"We can talk more about this later," Steve said, putting a hand on Danny's shoulder and leading him towards the truck. "We need to get you to a hospital."

"Nice try," Danny replied. "But you can take me to Rachel's. I need to see my baby girl. Now."

"Danny..." Steve started.

"To Rachel's or I call a cab Steven!" Danny ordered.

Steve rolled his eyes and helped Danny into the truck. "You're so damn stubborn," he said.

"I learn from the best buddy," he replied with a smirk.

Steve got into the drivers seat and turned to look at Danny. Danny looked steadily back at him.

"Just promise me you won't do anything like this again Danny..." Steve said softly.

"You know I can't make that promise Steve," Danny replied. "Just like I know you'd have done the same for me. Hell you even tried to!"

Steve nodded and sighed heavily. Of course he'd have done the same thing. He'd do anything for Danny. But he'd also rather that Danny be the one who was safe. He always wanted Danny to be safe.

"You could've died in there..." Steve said seriously. "Hell you almost did! Look at you..."

Danny put a hand on his arm. "But I didn't Steve," he replied. "I don't know how yet and you have a lot of explaining to do, but you got me out. You always get me out. I never doubted that for a second. When I gave myself up, I was able to do that because I knew you would never stop until you got me back. And I wasn't wrong."

"You put too much faith in me," Steve said.

"You haven't let me down yet," Danny pointed out.

Steve smiled. "Yeah I guess I haven't," he said. "And I don't intend to."

"Thanks for getting me out partner," Danny said. "Really. Thank you."

"Of course partner," Steve replied. "I love you."

"I love you too," Danny told him. "Now can you get a move on already?! My daughters waiting Steven!"

Steve laughed and started towards Rachel's house. It had been a tough as hell few days but they made it through. Chin was alright, Danny was alright -for the most part anyway- and his team would help each other get through this like they always did. They were ohana after all.

THE END
