A friend of kono's is coming to Hawaii and needs a job . While not having an interest at first in Danny or Steve they start to grow on her . Kono knows how her friend is and tells her she can trust the new family . She doesn't like how Danny's ex wife treats her new friend .

Danny looked over at his best friend who had the strangest look on his face, like he had a secret and was dying to tell someone. Danny looked over at Kono, her face was flushed and she was avoiding looking directly at him. Something was definitely going on and he wanted to know what it was. As he was about to ask, the theme song to Jaws played into the air. He looked at Steve who gave him a look of that was a better ring tone for his ex wife.

"Yes Rachel , oh hey Stan , ummm let me look but I should be able to take her sure . Why what is going on ?" Danny chuckled into the phone " That is really nice of you to do that for her . No I'm just feeling Zen today , just got to work and no one died yet today , so I am in a good mood . I will stop after work to see Rachel and arrange it . … Yep no problem Stan " Danny placed his phone back into his pocket and looked up . Kono had her head cocked to the side and so did Steve .

" Oh , Stan is taking my lovely ex wife to Switzerland for two weeks and asked if I could watch Grace . Of course the baby is going but he said he already asked Gracie if spending two weeks with her father would be okay and Gracie is more than excited about it ." Danny couldn't stop the smile that grew .

Everyone knew how much Danny loved his daughter and the little girl had grown all of them , so if the could spend two weeks with her , then it would be heaven .

Danny ,threw his mail down on his table and looked at the two who kept staring at him " What is this is going on with all of the checking me out ?" He wasn't sure he really wanted to know the answer.

Steve gave him a innocent look but his eyes dance with delight " oh Kono wants you to hook up with a friend of hers ,who is coming here to visit or live or something and I just want to hear the rant of how you aren't going to go on any blind dates with anyone because of your ex wife "

Kono, almost spit out her tea she was drinking and looked at Danny .

" Come on now Steve do I really sound like that ?"

"Yes !" they all chimed in unison .

Danny let out a sigh " Look, just because the second go round taught me a harsh lesson doesn't mean I'll never date again just not right now . That is all. What ?" he asked as all three of them sighed and went into there own offices .

It had been a quiet morning and no one was going to start complaining at all . After the last few weeks that they had had , a quiet afternoon is what they wanted . They all had plenty of paper work to catch up on .

Steve sat in his office ,just staring at the paper work, he heard the front doors open and then no footsteps . Steve tilted his head , and listened for anything . He knew the door wouldn't just open on its own . He heard paper rustle out on the table and keys hit the wood . Steve stood up and grabbed his gun that was resting on the desk beside him . He placed it in the holster but kept the strap off of it .

Carefully ,he stepped out into the hall way , he looked into Danny's office and saw him reading something on his computer screen . Danny looked up at him and instantly grabbed his gun and stood up to go see why Steve was wandering around so quietly . Danny walked out into the hallway following his partner and best friend . Steve nodded for him to stay there . Danny rolled his eyes a pushed past him. If there was a dangerous intruder shots would have been fired already.

Danny walked out to where Steve was looking and there stood a 5 foot something woman looking at the name plates on the wall. Her short dark auburn hair looking like it was on fire in the sun got Danny's attention . She turned and looked at him and a smile spread across her face. Until Steve came out yelling .

"5-0 who are you ?" Steve demanded . Danny only rolled his eyes .

The woman's smile got bigger " I'm looking for Kono . I'm Kia"

Danny went back down the hallway to get Kono " Hey your friend is in the main room ,having a gun pointed at her "

Kono jumped out of her chair and like a shot was in the main room looking at Steve , who looked embarrassed at pointing a gun at her friend

"Steve , how about you don't shoot the girl , it would look bad " Danny told his friend and as Kono saw the girl a loud scream came from her both men turned around and watched Kono run by and hug the shorter girl for a long time .

Danny had a smirk on his face as he watched the two girls then looked at Steve . Steve wasn't quite sure what had just happened but he lowered the gun and shook his head . " I never understood the scream and hug thing with women" Steve looked over at Danny for an explanation but the blonde only shrugged.

"Women are a lot different than us man , we can hug with out screaming and it means the same "

"Shut it you two, this is the friend I was telling you and Chin about ," she turned her attention back to her friend " I just hung up with you , how are you already here?"

"I called you from the car I got here a few hours an ago I know how you get about me and planes " she started to laugh . Kono scowled at her .

" That , that was not funny , we almost got thrown off the plane . Anyway let me introduce you to my boss and Danny the man I know you will end up marrying one day "

Kia , frowned at her friend " Kono, for once lets just drop my love life or lack of . And you tall dark and crazy , why would you aim a gun at a defenseless girl ? " She quipped out turning her attention at Steve.

"Because he lacks social skills , he would point at a kid before asking if the kid was lost " Danny piped in before Kono or Steve could answer .

A grin spread over Kia face as she turned on Danny " so my future husband ,you definitely are not from here and judging from the tone in your voice not that thrilled to be here . Well at your job yes , but who wears a tie in Hawaii , so you must be from Detroit or something right ?"

" No I'm from Jersey and I'll have you know Miss that this is my favorite tie my daughter got it for me "

Kia ,threw a glance at Kono " It's true . Come to my office tho and we can talk "

" Hey Ladies why doesn't Kono take the day off if anything comes up we will call you " Danny suggested . Steve nodded in agreement and rolled his eye when Kono ran up and hugged him . It wasn't like they had gotten days off very often so giving Kono some time perfect.

"Thanks boss" Kono hugged both men then grabbed her friends hand and ran out the door to a sliver corvette that was sitting in the doorway . Kono came back in with a sheepish smile "Keys" was all she said as she grabbed the keys off of the wood table .

While in the corvette, Kono was watching her closet friend carefully . The smile that always reached Kia's eyes just wasn't there anymore. They talked about things that were small and nothing exciting as they headed to Kono's apartment . The silence was making Kono curious . It really wasn't like Kia to be so quiet .

After Kono, waited for her friend to get settled in the extra room she decided to ask to ask her friend what was wrong .

"Kia, what's going on , it isn't like you to be so quiet " Kono, looked her friend over , she didn't look like the same girl she skyped a month ago . She had lost weight , the shine in her eyes was gone . Worry lines seemed more apparent and the zest she had just been missing .

"I'm okay, just getting out of that marriage is not agreeing with me , the annulment is being contested . Jared is saying that I have no reason to be leaving him and that we did sleep together after we were married . And that I'm never getting the divorce either, because the thought of me being touched by another man makes his sick. " Kia sighed she knew she shouldn't say another word about it .

"But enough about me , how have you been , which handsome guy in the office was yours? Let me guess since you tried to pawn off that blonde…."

Kono laughed out loud " That blonde , wow Kia , nice but no neither one is my type , and before you even start Chin is married now . So what do you want to do for the day surf?"

"I don't surf any more " Kia told her friend with a mater of fact face .

"I'm sorry did you just say that you didn't surf anymore ?" Kono scoffed at her friend "Okay then lets got catch some rays and go swimming or….." Kono was cut off before she could finish her sentence . Her cell phone interrupted her sentence .

"Kono. No not at all cuz , what's up ? No not a problem I'll be there as soon as I can " Kono looked at her friend .

"I'm sorry I have to go to work for a few hours ,will you okay ?"

That was the break she was looking for " No , I mean yeah I'll be fine . I'm a little tired so I might take a nap for a bit . You go to work and when you are threw we can go to dinner and drinks and dancing , if there is a place for all of that " this time she had a smile on her face that reached her eyes .

"Yeah , definitely , I shouldn't be to long , enjoy the nap" Kono told her friend as she gave her a quick hug and left the room. Kia , waited for the front door to close before she let out the air that was trapped inside her lungs .

She turned around and looked at the woman in the mirror, barely recognizing the person she rubbed her face and walked over to the bed that was beckoning her to lay on it. In a few minutes her eyes closed and her breathing went into a steady flow.

I know I was going to make it fluffy, but then I thought why do that?
