Author Note
So here's the next chapter for you.
I debated a long time whether to put this chapter up and I decided in the end that I needed to since Aloha isn't just the story of McDanni it's also the story of Danlin and to fully explore the relationship between Danny Williams and Caitlin Richardson we would need some chapters from their point of view.
This story is primarily about Steve's and Danni's romance but I find this second romance between Danny and Caitlin equally as fascinating. If Steve's and Danni's relationship is like a smooth, serene lake then Danny's and Caitlin's is more like a storm at sea. There will be a lot of ups and downs which will be explored.
I just hope you're willing to stay with me and explore it with me!
Anyway please enjoy the chapter!

Part Four
I should tell you how I really feel but I'm worried about what you might say
Danny Williams leaned back in his chair, tapping his cell phone against the surface of his desk, his bright blue eyes fixed on the dark screen in front of him as he tried to figure out why Caitlin hadn't called him yet. He could understand not knowing she was coming, Caitlin tended to be the kind of woman who made split second decisions, and it wouldn't have surprised him if she had made the decision the night before to come down but he had hoped that she would have come down to the office with Danielle to see him.
They had clearly arrived together on the flight but while Danielle had come straight here to see Steve, Caitlin had instead decided to go back to the hotel which concerned him even if he didn't want to say the words out loud.
Was she already bored of him?
He knew they were different from each other and were from two different words. Two different people who had a chemistry with each other which was off the chart but he wasn't sure whether that was enough to sustain them. There was still a part of him which felt as though they were doomed to fail because he couldn't provide her the life she was used to. Add to the fact that he had a young daughter who Caitlin had never met made him wonder whether she had come here to end their relationship and that's why she hadn't called him to let him know that she was coming to the island.
He wanted to talk to someone about it but there was no one who he could. The only person he would be tempted to talk was Steve but his best friend was currently busy at his home with the love of his life who was probably unpacking her belongings or more likely they were having a loving reunion with each other. Danny was happy for his best friend, he truly was but there was a small part of him which was jealous of the other man. Everything Steve had ever wanted in a woman had appeared in his life two months ago in the shape of a beautiful, five foot blonde who was clearly head over heels in love with the big goof.
"Get a grip Williams" He murmured to himself, pushing his chair back as he came to his feet, slipping his cell phone into the pocket of his trousers and headed out of his office, hitting the light switch on his way out. Every other office was dark indicating that everyone other than him had already left to get on with their plans for the evening. He left the building, heading straight to his car and climbed in, closing the door behind him and started the engine, pulling out of his space and headed to the exit of the car park, stopping there and took a moment, looking left and right trying to decide which way to go.
One way would take him to his home, the other would take him to Caitlin.
He bit down on his lower lip before he came to a decision and twisted the steering wheel in his hand turning to the right. He drove, tapping his hand against the wheel in time to the music from the CD which Grace had left in his car. He pulled his car into the hotel car park and into a free space before he came to a stop looked up at the hotel for a moment as he reached into his pocket and swiped his thumb across the screen. He went into his messages bringing up a fresh one and selected Danielle's cell number which she had given to him when they had dinner before she had left for her two month stint away and dropped her a quick message asking her for Caitlin's room number.
He was surprised when the message came back almost straight away. He opened it, a smile coming to his face when he read it.
She's in room 1100 Danny, have a great night and let me know if you and she are free tomorrow for dinner at ours. Don't worry, I'm cooking! X
Danny shook his head as he pushed the driver's door open and shut it behind him, locking the car before he headed into the hotel. He glanced around him, taking everything out of habit before he headed to the elevator and hit the call button, waiting impatiently for one to arrive and for the people within to exit. He climbed in and pressed the button for her floor.
Within moments he was walking down the corridor and stopping in front of Caitlin's door. For a moment he stared at it before he breathed out and reached out, knocking on the door and waited. A moment later the door opened revealing Caitlin dressed in a pair of shorts and a vest top, her hair half dried into waves which fell over her shoulder. She looked gorgeous though that didn't surprise him. As far as he was concerned she was one of the most beautiful women he had met.
"Danny" She said, her dark eyes widening.
"Hey, I heard you were in town so I figured I'd come down here and see you." He told her with a casual shrug. For a moment she stared at him before she suddenly smiled brightly, grabbing his by his shirt and pulling him into the room, her mouth on his as he kicked the door shut behind him. He let her push him to the bed and pushed him down onto it, straddling his hips, her hands gripping his wrists.
"I've missed you" She told him lowly.
"I've missed you as well" Danny admitted, lifting his head and kissing her again before she pushed him back down. "We do need to talk though" he said.
"You want to talk now?" She asked him, a disbelieving tone coming to her voice.
"What I want to do right now is rip your clothes off and fuck you until neither of us can stand but we need to talk first." Danny told her seriously meeting her eyes. She searched them for a moment before she sighed and nodded moving off of him and sitting next to him on the mattress. Danny pushed himself up as well. A part of him wishing that he hadn't said anything but he knew that he had to.
"What did you want to talk about then?" Caitlin asked him quietly, staring straight away of her.
"I need to know what we are doing here Cait. Are we in a relationship with each other? Are we two people who will come together when you're in town or you happen to be in New Jersey at the same time as I am? Is this just something casual or is it something more?" He asked her.
"I'm not very good with relationships Danny" Caitlin admitted. "I always mess it up even if I don't mean to. I'm not like my sister, I can't give you a relationship like the one she and McGarrett have."
"I don't want your sister or the relationship she has with Steve. You are not her and I'm not him thank god" He said, injecting some humour into his voice, thankful when she shot him an amused grin.
"Yeah they have sort of skipped all the fun dating part and jumped straight into marriage, I keep expecting Danni to call me and ask me to be her chief bridesmaid" Caitlin remarked.
"Well expect it soon because it's only a matter of time before the big goofball asks your sister to marry him, he's just looking for the best way of doing it." Danny replied back, the comment making Caitlin nod thoughtfully.
"Well make sure you tell McGarrett that getting the proposal right is essentially. My sister has been dreaming of her wedding since forever, everything down to the proposal. She wants everything done a certain way even if she doesn't admit it out loud."
"Why wouldn't she say something to him herself?" Danny asked with a slight frown.
"Because she loves him more than I've seen her love anyone before in her life, there would be no way that Danni would say anything because she wouldn't want to put pressure on him. She would probably say yes and love it if he proposed to her with a party ring" Caitlin remarked on a laugh.
"Any clues you could give me that I could pass on?" Danny pressed.
"Danni loves the night" Caitlin replied after a moment, gentle jabbing her finger against Danny's chest. "And that is all you're getting from me at the moment, if McGarrett still hasn't proposed in say two weeks then maybe just maybe I'll give you and him another clue." She stated.
"What about you and I Cait?" Danny remarked, trying to ignore the small flicker of hope which was growing in his chest. He didn't know why but there was something about this woman in front of him, something which told him that maybe, just maybe, there could be something special between the two of them if it was only given the time to grow.
"I can't promise anything Danny but I would like to give this a proper go. I'm not used to relationships so if I make mistakes then it's most likely not intentional" Caitlin said after a pause.
"I'm not the greatest either but we can give this a go and see where it leads us. How long are you here for before your next shoot?" Danny asked her.
"Three weeks" Caitlin replied promptly. "I've done some reshuffling with some jobs to make it happen. I just want to be here to make sure my sister settles in okay. This is a big change for her, much bigger than either you or McGarrett realise so I just need to be sure that she's happy before I go."
"Hey if there's one thing I know it's that Danni-girl will be happy, Steve will make sure of that. He worships the ground your sister walks on which reminds me your sister told me to tell you that she wants you and me to come round tomorrow to hers and Steve's house because she wants to cook" Danny told her, raising an eyebrow when Caitlin's face brightened.
"I'm there" She stated empathically. "If there's one thing you'll learn about my sister Danny it's the fact that she's one hell of a cook and baker. I wouldn't miss it for the world but…" she continued to say, her words trailing off as she pushed Danny back down and climbed over him again
"But?" Danny prompted, his hand coming up to grip her hair lightly.
"But you and I were in a very interesting position earlier and I would quite like to get back to it, that's if you want to?" She said innocent, her hands trailing up his chest until she reached the first of his shirt buttons which she began to slowly undo.
"Oh I certainly want to" Danny replied, twisting so their position were reversed. "I want to again and again and again." He said just before he leaned down and kissed her hard, all thoughts about anything other than the woman beneath him flying out his head.
They could wait until another time.
