tiring morning turns into trouble for the afternoon leading to corruption?
Two weeks had passed and Steve woke up when could feel the warm body pressed against his side start to shake and opened his eyes knowing the signs that she was having a nightmare he pulled her into his arms whispering, "Cath, your okay."
She mumbled something into his chest, "Mmmm," he continued to rub circles and whisper until confident that her breathing even out and she was once again asleep and he took a while but soon followed figuring was going to be another long night after all she been having nightmares since been back.

Danny arrived around ten that morning and walked into the kitchen to see Doris sitting at the counter, "Don't you knock Daniel?"
He raised an eyebrow before grabbing some coffee,"Came to check on my partner whose late for work again."
Steve woke up to her asleep on stomach with one hand under a pillow and another over his torso along with his son asleep between them so he carefully got out of bed kissing both on the forehead before grabbing a quick shower than found his partner and mother, "What you doing here?"
Danny glared at the man in cargo shorts and tousled hair, "Log night but why are you here?"
"Because once again you missed meeting with Denning and came to see if still alive."
He looked at his phone as grabbed cup of coffee, "Meeting wasn't until one this afternoon Daniel."
Doris left and Danny asked, "What's really got you looking like crap?"
"Cath has been waking up a few times last week or so with nightmares and Matt came in when storm got bad."
There was a knock at the door before Chin and Kono came walking in, "Morning boss and other boss," Kono said sitting at the table.
Chin passed around cocoa puffs, "Get any sleep last night, brah?"
They ate and Danny dragged his partner off to the mall where they were having a stake out to see if could find a suspect that thought to be there. Steve was sitting in the food court sipped coffee while Danny was doing the same but across the room when spotted their man walking not far. They he caught sight of Danny he took of and both men chased him as headed for the escalators and Steve was going up one while he was going down so leapt across almost at the top and both collided with side of the rail. Danny shook his head as handcuffed the suspect and turned him over to the HPD officers waiting, "Had to do that again?"
Steve glared at his partner as sat up, "Danny I am fine."
"That's why your shoulder looks like that? Last time did that you dislocated your shoulder and once again it happened."
At the hospital Dr Carter was talking to a nurse when heard them before could see the two partners, "I don't need to be here."
"Doc can you pop his shoulder in and maybe knock him out," Danny asked only joking a little. "I don't know for a month or two?"
The doctor grabbed a file and ushered them into a room, "I was starting to think would have quiet time while lady was on leave but nope."
Danny huffed, "It's never a dull moment just been going to Queens."
"Than how come drive all the way here?"
Steve sighed, "Chasing suspect not far from here and a lot easier."
"In other words he can get out of here a lot quicker."
After he popped the shoulder in place, "Need to rest that arm for few days since a nerve or pinch a nerve- again."
Danny watched him secure the arm to his body, "One way to make sure don't move to much."
Steve glared at his partner and friend, "Is this really necessary?"
"For any other sane person NO," Danny said. "But for I-am-hurting-but-don't-listen-to-doctors-orders SuperSeal it is."
"Stop corrupting the doctor and get me out of here."
Dr Carter pat him on the good shoulder, "You know love us."
"Bite me both of you."

Chin and Kono were still there when arrived a few hours later, "Not good afternoon?" Kono asked.
Danny shook his head, "Tackled a suspect on moving escalator and dislocated his shoulder again and doc made it immobilized for next 72 hours."
Catherine came downstairs yawning, "Good to know."
Steve used his good arm to pull her into his lap, "Your all corrupting her."
Kono was grinning, "We all love you most of the time."
"And someone has to be making sure you make it out alive," Danny told him.
"More like their corrupting me, sailor."
He sighed as she kissed him, "Unbelievable all of you."
