"Stupid fucking cuffs" Steve mumbled as he tried for about the tenth time to button the cuffs of his suit "God Dammit!"
Chin chuckled and said "Chill out brah. It's gonna be fine" He buttoned Steve's cuffs for him and slapped him on the back. He was Steve's best man and Steve had been freaking out all last night and all of today.
"I know. I know. I'm just nervous" Steve pulled at the hem of his suit again. He felt stupid in a suit, he didn't know how Danny wore stuff like this everyday.
Chin grabbed him by the shoulders and looked at him "You love Danny right?" When a fierce gleam overtook Steve's eyes and he nodded Chin continued "And he loves you. We all see it. Everyday. It's going to be fine. You clean up pretty nice for a SEAL, the decorations look great thanks to Kono, and all your guys' family is here. This is your day Steve. Relax"
Steve nodded. Chin was right. Steve needed to relax. Everything was perfect thanks to Kono. The ceremony was going to be beautiful and the reception was going to be beautiful as well. All thanks to Kono. And Grace. He couldn't forget Grace, the little girl he loved and who
he was about to become a Stepfather too. He heard the door open and saw Mary come in.
"Hey bro. You look great. So does Danny by the way and the flowers and things! Kono did a great job." She threw her arms around Steve's neck "My brother getting married? How about that? I love you bro" Mary said and hugged him again.
"I love you too sis" Steve said "You look great Mare" It was true everyone looked good in the clothes Kono and Grace had picked, the midnight blue dress looked great with his dove grey suit and light blue button up.
"I'm going to go take my spot. You're next. So relax and hurry up" She smiled, hugged him one more time and ran out of the room. Chin had already taken his spot and Steve was supposed to walk down the aisle with Danny. Oh god, he couldn't breathe.
"Claire! Would you stop? It's fine. I dress like this everyday, I can manage it myself" Danny yelled, swatting his sisters hands away from his jacket where she was trying to straighten his collar.
Claire just huffed and glared at him "Well it's not everyday my little brother marries the man of his dreams. A sexy, very handsome man" She winked when he glared at her.
Danny sighed. Of course his sisters would think Steve was attractive. Steve was like sex on legs, he just exuded raw, masculine power. His 2 sisters and parents had made the flight from Jersey for the wedding and his parents were taking their seats while his sisters, Claire and Melissa, were in here fussing over him. He was getting really annoyed.
"Melissa if you touch my hair one more time..." Danny warned as he felt his other sisters hand smoothing it down.
She punched him in the shoulder and said "Chill out Danny. I just want you to look good, God knows your husband does"
"Yeah thanks for the reminder" Danny mumbled. Steve always looked good. What was worse whenever Steve put a suit on, he automatically transformed into James Bond. It sucked.
Danny felt 2 pairs of arms wrap around him and he stiffened "Come on guys seriously? I know your not crying."
"Shut up!" was their simultaneous response and then the door opened. It was Grace and she launched herself into Danny's arms.
"Danno!" Grace squealed as he caught her and hugged her tight.
"Monkey! You look perfect" Danny said smiling at his beautiful daughter, in the midnight blue dress her and Kono had picked. Danny had Kono to thank for all this. The ceremony and reception was beautiful, he didn't know how to thank her.
"Come on Danno. It's about to start" Grace squirmed from his arms and ran to take her place along with his sisters.
Danny took a deep breath. This was it. He was going to marry the man he loved. Some crazy ass, nutjob, SuperSEAL, with an superman complex. God, What was Danny thinking? This man was a complete nutjob. He got Danny shot at on a regular basis, never let him drive his own car, and he was very controlling. But Danny loved him. He loved Steve so much it hurt, and he was going to marry him.
Danny met Steve at the end of the aisle, and damn did he look good "You look gorgeous babe. You ready?"
Steve smiled and kissed Danny "Ready to spend my life with you? Oh yeah" They linked arms and the doors opened. They walked down the aisle and stood at the altar, grinning at each other the entire time.
Then their vows came up. Danny went first with his and said "I promise to love you for all time. Your crazy, controlling, and have the insane notion that your superhuman but I love you. I love you even though your up ungodly early every morning, you constantly complain about my clothes and you never let me drive my own car. I love that you keep your grenade supplies well stocked and I love your ninja skills even though I complain a lot. I love you Steven J McGarrett"
Everyone laughed and Steve grinned. It was his turn. When everyone was silent he simply said "I love you" When everyone waited for him to say more and he didn't things became uncomfortable. Danny glared at him and whispered "I swear to god you had better have more than that!"
Steve just smiled "I don't have anything else to say. I love you. I can't explain it in words how much I love you. You know there are things that I love and things that I hate about you. I love Grace. I love us. I love working together. I couldn't live without you in my life and I'm always thinking about you even when your laying right next to me. There are no words for how I feel and how I will always feel about you. Danny, I love you. Plain and Simple. Just 3 words. I love you"
Danny just stared at him. He couldn't believe it. Steve McGarrett had just said the most heartfelt wedding vows ever and he had only focused on 3 little words. Danny didn't think it was possible but he loved this man even more than before.
The priest cleared his throat and Danny snapped back to reality. Right, marriage to Steve. Wedding.
"Do you have the rings?" The priest asked.
"Yes sir" Steve said and turned around to grab Danny's from Chin. It was a simple silver band and on the inside it was engraved. "To my love, my life, my husband...my everything. Always and forever Steve." He slipped it on Danny's finger and felt a similar feeling on his own hand.
Danny's fingers shook as he took the ring from his father beside him and slid it on Steve's finger. It was a a silver band with a small black engraving on the inside that read "Danno loves you. Always and Forever Danny" Danny knew it wasn't much but it was simple and with Steve it was best to keep things simple and Steve knew how much it meant when he used the nickname, Danno. So yeah for Steve, it was great.
"I now pronounce you husband and husband! You may kiss your groom!" The priest announced, a warm smile creasing his old, gentle face. Steve pressed his lips against Danny's and his heart soared when everyone cheered and clapped. It had been perfect. Danny was perfect.
The reception went by in a blur. Dancing, toasting, drinking, eating. Smashing cake in each others faces, that had been Graces favorite part. Steve and Danny had both danced with Grace, and Kono and each others family. At the end of the night, when everyone was pouring into taxis and cars back to their hotels, Steve and Danny were saying goodbye when Steve leaned down and whispered in his ear. Danny grinned and nodded. They finished saying their goodbyes and made their way to their honeymoon suite at the Hilton, courtesy of Danny's parents.
They barely made it into the room before they were clawing at each others clothes, desperate for skin on skin. They flopped down on the bed, Steve laying on top of Danny and he slid his hand down Danny's arm and grabbed his wrist lifting his arm above his head then sliding his hand up to lace his fingers with Danny's. He smiled into the kiss when he heard the silver bands clink together.
"I love you Daniel McGarrett-Williams" Steve whispered softly in his ear.
Danny smiled. He loved the way it sounded "I love you too Steven J McGarrett-Williams"
