"Danny you Ok" Kono asked as she they sat in his office after Chin and Steve had left? "I am good" Danny replied. "You are a such a liar" Kono responded as she sat down.
"Kono I honestly thought I was doing a good thing for this task for, for all of us but apparently Steve doesn't think so" Danny said sadly.
"Danny we all appreciate what you have done, but you have to admit you shocked the hell out of us by the conditions you put upon yourself in taking the job" Kono replied.
"Kono I had to do something, do you know how much you all mean to me" Danny stated? "Danny we know and you mean everything to us, but the Governor's original order just had you running Five-O with accountability, not losing your badge" Kono stated.
"I know but I couldn't take Steve's job, this is his task force, therefore, I thought the best option was for us run it together since the Governor wasn't going to put him back in charge for now anyway" Danny said.
"You have really gone out on a limb for us, you do know that don't you" Kono replied as she looked at Danny.
"Kono I wouldn't still be here if it wasn't for Steve. He had the Governor intervene when Rachel threatened to take Grace away from me and for that I will always be thankful so this is the least I can do for him" Danny said.
"Danny you do know Steve was shocked by what you did, he is not used to people putting themselves out there for him, he just doesn't want to lose you like he has lost everyone else" Kono stated. "I know and I also know I could not run this task force on my own, I could never fill Steve's shoe's" Danny said.
"You and Steve are two of the most stubborn people I have ever met, that is why you get along so well, you balance each other out and frankly you are the first person I have seen that was able to crack that shell of his and let someone in and get close to him" Kono smiled.
"Well look how that turned out" Danny said. "Danny you two will get through this because frankly if you don't I will drop kick you both until you two kiss and make up" Kono laughed. "What about you, I know you are pretty pissed at him yourself" Danny stated. "I will admit I probably did and said some things I shouldn't have but at the time the only thing I could think of was you no longer being part of Five O or our Ohana" Kono said.
"Well you don't have to worry about that, I don't plan on going anywhere anytime soon" Danny said with a smile on his face. "Now I am guessing that smile has to do with a certain someone" Kono said. "I have no idea what you're talking about Danny" grinned. "I see that smile anytime you are thinking or talking about Gabby" Kono replied. "Oh really" was Danny's simple reply. "Yes really, and I couldn't be happier for you, she makes you happy, which makes me happy" Kono said.
"Speaking of Gabby, I can't thank you enough for what you have done these last two weeks when the Governor cancelled my vacation" Danny said seriously. "Danny, you don't have to thank me, it was my pleasure and besides Gabby and I get along just fine, we have a lot in common" Kono laughed. "Oh brother" Danny said as he ran his hands through his hair. "We don't talk about you all the time" Kono laughed as she sat there and just watched Danny shake his head.
"I really do appreciate you going house hunting with her, it meant a lot to me" Danny replied. It was my pleasure, so have you decided on a house yet" Kono asked? "As a matter of fact I think we have, there is just one little hitch" Danny replied. "What would that be" Kono asked. "It is McGarrett rule 56, no coworker is to live on the same block as him" Danny said. "Are you kidding me" Kono replied. "No I am not kidding you, when I was crashing at his place until I found a place of my own that was one of his rules along with no TV after midnight" Danny laughed. "Oh my god, I knew he was a control freak, but seriously" Kono replied.
"I know Gracie really loves the place because for one it is close to Steve and two it is by the water" Danny said. "Well then I think you should just go for it" Kono replied. "Well Gabby and Grace are coming by to pick me up and we are going to go take one more look at it" Danny said with a smile on his face. "I am so happy for you" Kono said as they got up and she gave him a hug. "Thank you, Danny simply replied.
"Now don't you have an appointment with a judge" Kono asked as she looked at her watch? "Yes I do, so I better get going" Danny said as they walked out of his office. "Don't worry, I will keep Gabby and Gracie occupied if you're not back when they get here" Kono said as she watched Danny walk away.
