Disclaimer

The character of Steve McGarrett, Danny Williams, Chin Ho Kelly, Kono Kalakaua, Adam 'Toast; Charles, Jenna Kaye and Max Bergman do not belong to me in any shape or form, I am merely using them for my own entertainment purposes

The character of Danni Williams is probably mine by now. Even though she was originally based on male Danny Williams I think it's probably safe to say that's she her own individual character by now, especially since I've created a back ground for her which is different to male Danny's background in the show. This also affects Grace who is different from the show as well in ways.

The characters of Rowan McGarrett, Jack O'Connor, David Richardson, Riley King, Mason Lowe, Niamh Clayton, Louisa Palakiko-Cowan, Tyler Landon, Vanessa Landon, Holly Davies and Doctor Elliot Lloyd, do however belong to me. I should also add that if a character is mentioned who you are not instantly aware of then that character belong to me as well

Author Note

First thing I should say is that this particular story was actually co-written with Tealrose who is an incredible writer so you should so check her work out if you haven't already done so. We wrote the first draft together and then I wrote it up properly into the story you see below you. It's quite possibly the most fun I've had with a story in a while.

This story is what I like to refer to as the 'What could have been' story section. Although I am pretty a 100% sure on how I plan Steve and Danni to get together in the main saga it doesn't stop my mind from creating other ways that it could happen and this is one of those ways. It's been sitting on my hard drive for months now so I figured why not just put it up and be done with it.

So I guess you can think of it almost as an A/U of an A/U lol!

This story unlike the other 'what could have been story' will be separated into chapters and it will turn mature pretty soon I think so you should be aware of that.

This story was so much fun to write so hopefully you'll all enjoy it as well.

We hope you all enjoy it

Overall summary

Chapter Two


"STEVE" Louisa hollered, wrapping her arm round Danni's shoulder. "Breathe honey, just breathe through it. How long have you had the contractions for?"

"Last night I guess, I thought it was just back ache" Danni panted as she suddenly hunched over at the sudden sharp pain that ripped across her stomach, pain she remembered from Grace telling her that she was in labour whether she wanted to be or not. She cried out at the feeling, vaguely hearing the sound of running footsteps heading towards them but all she could concentrate on was the pain and trying to ride it out. The fact that she was standing in a puddle didn't even register with her though she was sure at the back of her mind that she would feel embarrassed about it later on.

Steve raced towards her, his face grey with worry.

"Danno!"

He had never heard her this way before not even when she had hurt her back during that incident with Nick Taylor when one of his men had thrown her down the stairs. He fell to his knees in front of her, wrapping his arm around her instantly to keep her upright and steady, ignoring the water coming out of her, he had read enough pregnancy and baby books by now to know exactly what it meant.

"Should I call 911 Steve?" Toast demanded fearfully, his phone already in hand, his face twitching with every cry of pain that escaped Danni's mouth.

Riley looked at Steve before he took control of the situation.

"No Toast we need to get her to my car now, David you're coming with us, it's time to put those Doctor qualifications of yours to good use. Steve keep a hold of her hand, Danni is going to need you with her every step during this. Lou, call the Governor and let him know that it's happening and that me, David and Steve are out of action for the rest of the day and that Steve's paternity leave starts tomorrow. Chin you're in charge here, Kono, Jen, Jack, and Toast stay here and back him up. It's still business as usual and the crime elements of Hawaii aren't going to give us a break even if we want them to. Everyone know what they are doing?" He asked, nodding at them when they all made sounds of affirmation.

"Chin call Malia" Steve said, bringing himself out of his stupor for a moment.

"On it" Chin answered briefly, fishing his cell phone out of his pocket and bringing it to his ear.

"Riley I'm not sure whether Danni will make it to the hospital, from what she's saying her contractions started last night. The baby might not wait that long" Louisa told her partner, taking in the concern look which broke through his SEAL mask for a second.

"DAVID!" Steve roared as Danni gave a sharp, cut off scream.

Danni listened to everything around her but it sounded as though it was coming from far away. She tried to just focus on keeping her breathing steady but it was beginning to get difficult.

"Get her to the sofa! I'm going to check how far dilated she is" David said calmly, the sound relaxing her. If David was there then she would be okay. David loved her; he would never allow anything to happen to her. She grunted when Steve lifted her into his arms and swiftly crossed the room placing her on the coach, she could hear the sound of water which indicated that David was washing his hands and probably his forearms as well. She blinked hazily at him when he appeared at the end of the sofa, smiling reassuringly at her. "I've tried to warm my hands but they might still be cold sis" He told her, sitting at the end of the sofa. He took a deep breathe before he spoke. "This will be uncomfortable for a moment Danni but try not to fight me and in advance I'm sorry for this." He slipped his fingers beneath her skirt, pulling a face as he pulled down her underwear and quickly checked her. He quickly withdrew his hand taking the wet wipe which Jenna offered him and used it. "You're still only seven inches dilated Danni so the baby isn't quite ready to come into the world to say hey yet. There should be time to get her to the hospital if you hurry" He told Steve.

"I want to be sick" Danni managed to say.

"That is definitely a seven" Louisa said "I remember it all too well. You need to go now though, get her to the truck, the rest of us will stay here until it's time for us to come and see you, good luck Danni" She said, leaning down and brushing a kiss on Danni's sweaty cheek.

Steve picked her up again in his arms and began running, bypassing the elevator and heading straight for the stairs taking them as quickly as he dared to. He was vaguely aware of Riley and David following him down them but he kept his attention fixed solely on Danni. His fear and worry sky rocketing when she suddenly went rigid in his arms, a scream erupting from her which made it sound as though she was being murdered.

"Just keep going Steve, she's just having a contractions. I've timed them and they are nine minutes apart at the moment, it's when they are two minutes apart that we need to worry" David told him. Breathing a sigh of relief when Steve continued to move running into the main foyer. He was fighting his own protective instincts which were screaming at him to look after his twin.

They were out in the sunshine seconds later heading straight for Riley's SUV. Steve and Danni getting into the back while David jumped into the passenger seat and Riley took on the responsibility of driving. He drove as quickly as he dared towards the hospital making sure he didn't slam his foot down on the accelerator like he wanted to. The one time he had done that, Danni had snarled at him threatening to gut him if he did it again. Riley had been positive she wouldn't but then again he had never experienced Danni in labour before and wasn't going to risk it.

Danni ignored them all after her outburst at Riley, focusing only on her breathing. She swallowed hard, reaching out and grabbing Steve's hand tightly, listening to his soft murmurs of love and support, allowing them to calm her enough so that she could speak.

"I want Malia there Steve, get me Malia to deliver our baby" She told him fiercely, her eyes boring into his for a moment before they squeezed shut as another contraction hit her.

"Five minutes apart" David said calmly "You might want to go slightly faster Riley, hit the siren or something" He instructed. Riley nodded, doing as he was told breathing a sigh of relief as the traffic suddenly parted for him as if by magic.

Steve tilted Danni's face to him.

"Chin already called her love and she's at the hospital ready and able to deliver our baby" He promised her, his thumb stoking softly along her jaw line. Danni nodded at him before she tilted her head to her twin who was watching her intently.

"And you" She hissed at him, watching his grey eyes widen. "You just couldn't give me a few more inches could you? You couldn't carry some drugs around with you to numb the pain, what kind of Doctor are you?" She demanded angrily as David held up his hands in a peaceful gesture. He wanted to point out to her that he had been a Doctor with the Ranger core and that most of the time he was operating without drugs but he didn't dare. It was better to remain silent when she was in this sort of state.

Riley came to a sharp stop outside the main hospital entrance ignoring the curious looks they received as he turned in his seat to look at them.

"I'll park the car up and then meet you inside. Good luck McG, good luck sweetheart. Everything will be fine" He commented with a rare smile.

Danni glared at him just as another contraction hit her.

"ARGGGGGHHHH" She ground out, biting down hard not wanting to be seen screaming blue murder in front of the hospital where a few of her closest friends worked and where she actually went regularly to meet them. She burrowed into Steve as much as she could as he climbed out the car with her still in his arms. She felt exposed to everyone out here. All she wanted was a quiet room with just Steve and Malia and maybe David so she could bring her son or daughter into the world. David waved the nurses over and watched as Steve placed her on the gurney they provided, his hand gripping Danni's instantly.

"I love you Danielle" David said, leaning down and kissing her forehead. "You'll be okay, Steve will be with you and I'll be right outside the door as will Elijah" He said speaking of their younger brother who was a trauma surgeon in the hospital. "You can do this" Danni stared at him for a moment before she nodded.

"Love you Davey" She replied weakly, returning his kiss. David smiled looking up at Steve who was looking pale, a wild look in his eyes as though he was ready to attack the next person who hurt his girlfriend in anyway.

"Stay with her Steve and take care of her, I'm counting on you" David said sternly, putting a commanding tone into his voice which Steve automatically reacted to, blinking at him and looking as though he was coming out of a trance.

"I will David, you can trust me" He said. David nodded stopping outside the delivery room and watched nervously as Steve and Danni disappeared through the door. He ran a hand through his thick, wavy blond hair and sighed, looking around him and moving over to the nearest coffee machine to get one for him and Riley, somehow he had the feeling that they would need it.
