Chapter 1
Steve McGarrett was going to, no a better word would be dragged to a club with some friends from the Naval Academy. They were on break for a week and they had decided to go to Cabo. At the bar, some of his friends whistled looking around. "Look at all of the talent around here." one of Steve's buddies, James, said.
"Yeah, all of the girls are gorgeous are around here." Tommy said.
The guys dispersed and started talking to girls except Steve who went to the bar and got a beer. A little while later, his buddies came up to him and made it their mission to find him a girl for the night. As they were walking around, a girl at the bar finally caught Steve's eye and his friends noticed. She had straight brown hair with some plaits and streaks of color like purples, pinks, blues, and greens. She also had a small nose stud, a belly button ring, and several piercings in her ears. "Woah, Steve, I didn't know that that was the type of girl you went for but I can't blame you she is hot and she's probably a freak in the sheets." James told him.
They started walking over to the part of the bar that she was and saw her doing shots some girlfriends and some guys. "Hey, bartender, another round for these lovely ladies and my buddies." Tommy said while James got Steve next to the girl.
The girl smiled up at Steve and he smiled back. They clinked their shot glasses and took the shot. "Hi, I'm Steve."
"Lily, nice to meet you." She said taking a sip of her cranberry and vodka.
"Nice to meet you too."
"So are you an Army man."
"Navy and how did you know that?"
"Well just your stance, it's very official and stiff. Very Military."
"Yeah. I guess. What about you, you an artist or something?"
"A struggling artist but yeah an artist. How could you tell?"
"The colorful streaks in your hair."
"Oh. Yeah. I did it to be distinguishing and my mom used to have the same streaks in her hair."
"So you must be a free spirit."
"Yeah. That's how people describe me."
"Alright guys and gals its time for the body-shot hour." The bartender yelled through a mic to get everyone's attention.
Lily looked at Steve and said, "You game?"
"Umm, what the hell. Let's do it."
They waited for their turn then Steve helped Lily up on the bar and she giggled when they poured the vodka on her stomach and even more when she felt Steve's tongue on her stomach. Then she hopped off the bar and Steve got on and Lily took her shot off of his stomach. They ended up talking for the rest of the night before going back to her hotel room for more late night activity.
The next morning, Lily got up and went to her hotel room. It was at that moment that she discovered that her and Steve were staying at the same hotel. When she got back, her best friend, Kathy, was already up and waiting for her. "Lily, where the hell have you been?"
"I was umm... I was really drunk and..."
"Oh my God, you went back to that Navy man's hotel room and had sex with him didn't you?"
"You said it."
"So how was he? He looked like he had an incredible body, I can only imagine what you did with it."
"O.k. I'm gonna stop you right there." she said grabbing her bathing suit.
"But wait, how did you get back here so fast?"
"It turns out, that Steve is staying in the same hotel as us."
"Cool. Maybe we'll see him and his Navy buddies around."
"Maybe." She said walking into the bathroom.
She went to the beach with her friends and was hanging out at the bar when she noticed Steve and his friends making their way towards them. "Well, hello, ladies!" Tommy said.
"Hello, yourself." Kathy said.
Steve smiled at Lily and said, "Hi."
"Hi. How you doing?"
"Pretty good. You?"
"Same."
The two continued to talk throughout the rest of their trip and became very close to one another. "So, tomorrow I'm heading back to the Naval Academy."
"Yeah, and I'm heading back to L.A. I really wish this week wouldn't end."
"Me either."
"Will I ever see you again?"
"Yeah. I want to see you when we get back to the states." Steve started writing something down on a piece of paper. "These are my numbers and my email. Call me sometime whenever you want."
"Here, this is my contact information. Call me whenever you're bored, sailor. I'll put a smile on your face." Steve couldn't help but smile at that.
Over the next year, Lily and Steve would email and talk on the phone everyday. Since Cabo, the two of them had only seen each other in person only twice because Steve had an assignment in L.A. Steve was now in his final year at the Naval Academy and he was planning on entering Seal training while working with Naval Intelligence. He really liked Lily, it wasn't just because she was beautiful but also because she was different from him in every way. While he was big on discipline and rules, she was wild and untamable. But despite that, she was interested in everything that was going on in his life and he felt that she genuinely cared for him. He was also very interested in her. He liked that she was so artsy but also really liked sports too. The last time he saw her, they played a game of basketball and she kicked his ass. What he loved the most about her was her infectious laugh and lust for life. Whenever they are together, she takes him on these crazy adventures like scaling the Bat Cave in Southern California.
He was walking out of training having changed into his naval uniform, when his phone started ringing and he saw that it was Lily. "Hey, Lils."
"Hey, Navy man. How's training going?"
"Navy man?"
"Yup. Until you become a Seal that's what I'm going to call you."
"And when I become a Seal what are you going to call me?"
"Seal man."
"That makes me sound like I'm half seal half man, mutant thing." He smiled when he heard her laugh.
"Yeah, I guess it does."
"So, what's going on, Lils."
"Nothing much. Just wanted to check in and see how you were doing."
"I'm fine. Just got out of training."
"So you are still at the Academy?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"Oh because I just want to see where you go to school."
"Wait, what?"
"You heard what I said."
"Where are you right now?"
"I'm behind you."
Steve looked behind him and couldn't help the shock or the smile that was on his face. It took Steve a moment to do anything before he started talking into the phone again. "I'll call you back, Lils. There's a stone cold fox in front of me that I just want to kiss senseless right now."
"Well then I suggest you do just that."
Steve walked up to her and kissed her passionately. It took her a second to open her eyes but she was having trouble breathing from the lack of oxygen. Steve caressed her cheek and whispered, "Hi."
"Hi." They kissed briefly again before Steve hugged her tightly.
"What are you doing here?"
"I came here for your graduation and for work."
"I thought you said you couldn't come."
"I wanted to surprise you."
"Well this is one hell of a surprise but my graduation isn't for another two weeks."
"I know that but I had to come early because one I wanted to see you and two because I need to set up at the gallery."
"What gallery?"
"Well you know that I am a struggling artist."
"Yeah?"
"Well I was in Venice Beach drawing a few sketches when this guy from Baltimore came up and saw what I was doing and complimented me. We started talking about artists. Then a week later he came into the store for some art supplies and I was in the back and painting. He saw what I was doing and some of my other works and offered to put some of them along with some new pieces into a gallery show here in Baltimore."
"What? That's amazing, Lils." He said picking her up and spinning her around. "I'm so happy for you."
"Me too. But what about you. You're the one that's going to have this exciting, amazing life traveling all around the world seeing all of these different cultures and defending your country while you're at it."
"Yeah. I'm excited. I can't wait for all of this. When's your showing?"
"On May 20th. When is your show? I want to be there when it happens."
"On May 22nd."
"You nervous?"
"No. What about you, you nervous about graduation?"
"No."
They both just smiled at each other and went to lunch. Two weeks went by and it was time for Steve's graduation. In the crowd he saw Lily but he also saw his father and sister sitting next to her. He was so shocked that he almost forgot his speech to his fellow graduates.
As soon as he walked off the stage he was engulfed in a tight embrace from Lily which he enthusiastically returned. When he released her, he saw his father and sister approaching them. "Steve!" Mary said before hugging him tightly.
"Mary! It is so good to see my baby sister again."
"Shut up, Steve."
"Steven, you're not teasing your little sister again?" John McGarrett asked.
"No, sir." Steve said turning serious. Lily could see that there was a lot of tension between the two of them. After a long moment, Steve said, "Why are you here, dad?"
"I came because this was your big day and I just wanted to let you know that I am proud of you, son."
"Thank you, sir."
"And who is this beautiful, young lady? Steve, is this your girlfriend?" John asked.
"Oh no I'm just-"
"Yes, she is. Dad, Mary, this is Lily Rossi. Lils, this is my sister, Mary, and my father, John."
"Nice to meet you, Lily." Mary said kindly.
"Nice to meet you two as well. Steve has told me about the two of you."
"Really? All good I hope." John said teasingly.
"Well they're not bad."
After a celebratory dinner, where Lily became close to Mary and John, she invited the two of them to her art show in two days time. They both promised to come and see it.
Two days later, Lily was freaking out about the show and it was showing. "Lils, calm down. You're talented and amazing. The show is going to go great." Steve said trying to reassure her.
"Well, just do me a favor and go listen in and tell me what people are saying."
"O.k." Steve, Mary, John, and Lily's friends took shifts going over to her section and listening in on what people were saying about the pieces.
When Steve go there, he noticed that one of the pieces was a simple sketch and it looked like... "She's really good. Don't you think that one sketch looks very familiar?" John asked his son.
"Three days ago, she was panicking because one of her sketches was ruined and she needed another piece for the show. She must have drawn this when I was sleeping."
"Well it is labeled the peaceful sailor. She's a great girl, Steve, don't lose her."
"I don't plan to."
Five months later
Steve had just finished his first tour with the Navy while working Naval Intelligence. He kept trying to call Lily, but a few months ago she started dodging his calls. Before they would talk every day, now he was lucky if he was able to talk to her once a month when he managed to get a hold of her. And then whenever they were on the phone these days, she would rush him off the phone after about ten minutes or so. He was really getting worried. Luckily he was stopping in L.A. and he would be able to see her and find out what was going on.
He walked up to her apartment and saw her through the window with her back turned to him. He knocked on the door and smiled when he saw her face. That smile went away when he saw the bump where her stomach was. "Steve, what are you doing here?"
"You haven't been answering any of my calls. I was getting worried."
"I'm fine."
"Are you..."
"Am I pregnant? Yeah. It's your's, Steve." She said letting him into the apartment.
"Why didn't you tell me when you found out?"
"Because I know how much your job means to you and I didn't want to add more to your plate. You have enough to worry about without a child."
"So what was your plan? Just keep avoiding me and my calls and never tell me that I have a child out there some where?" Steve said starting to get angry.
"I don't know."
"Have you been to a doctor?"
"What?"
"Have you been to a doctor?"
"Yes. Every three weeks like clockwork. In fact I have an appointment in an hour."
"Let's go then."
They were silent all the way there and even when the doctor did the exam. "Alright, Ms. Rossi, I know that last time we weren't able to get a good look at the baby to determine the sex but it looks to be in a good position now. Would you like to know what you're having?"
"Umm, yes."
"Looks like you're going to have a very healthy baby girl. Congratulations."
After the visit Steve drove Lily back to her apartment and stopped her before she could get out of the car. "I want to be there for you and the baby."
"Steve-"
"No listen to me. This baby is my responsibility and I want to be there for it all. Anything you need, you call me. Once I move up here, I won't be so far except when I'm away but even then call me."
"Wait move up here?"
"Yeah, I'm moving to L.A. That's why I was trying to call you. To tell you. Lils, we're going to be o.k."
She kissed him on the cheek and hugged him.
