The McGarretts
In the morning Steve, Danny and Grace came to see Cath until Grace had to go to school and Steve and Danny had case. About two or three hours later Rachael, Stan, Charlie and Grover's daughter and wife - Samantha and Renee - visited, talked and held the twins until Cath was tired and Sarah and Michael were put to sleep. After a couple of hours she woke and found lunch but it wasn't horrid hospital food but shrimp from Kamekona. As it turned out, the case 5-0 caught was quick and the suspect gave a full confession after sitting down in the interrogation room and maybe a threat or two from Steve. So everyone (Steve, Danny, Chin, Kono and Grover plus siblings and all) came and visited, talked and held the twins again in that day until Arizona came to announce three things, 1) The babies are fine. 2) Cath is being discharged tomorrow and 3) that visiting hours are over and everyone but Steve has to leave as he was family.
The next morning a nurse came in with the discharge papers, after a couple of signatures Cath, Sarah and Michael were allowed to leave and head home much to Cath's liking.
After about a fifteen minute drive from the hospital to Steve's house, all four were surprised when they found Danny, Grace, Rachael, Stan, Charlie, Kono, Adam, Grover, Renee, Samantha, Kamekona and Joe all on the front porch with a sign saying 'Welcome Home'. Everyone had a good laugh and Danny and Chin took the twins while Steve carried Cath bridal style in through the front door with a kiss. Once inside everyone clapped and cheered. Everyone came in and beers and drinks, appetizers and a BBQ lunch were already made waiting to be eaten. Steve and Danny handed beers to the adults and soft drink or juice to the children. Cath also fed the twins and put them to sleep after presents were given and everyone had a hold of Sarah and Michael. Danny had a surprise for the family of four so he blindfolded Cath which again she was unimpressed with because of how many times she had been blindfolded; Danny took them upstairs and changed the spare room into a nursery. The blindfolds then came off and Steve and Cath looked around and were in awe. The room had a roof with sail boats and navy themed decor, pink walls with butterflies and flowers on one half, two beds with the initials of first and middle names, two changing tables, book shelf with picture books, draw for clothes (different colours for each child), multiple toy boxes around the house and a play mat.
And now their house is baby proof with security alarms, gates, hidden compartments for weapons, locks on doors and windows, slip-proof mat in the bath and shower, expensive, precious and hazardous things out of reach and specific things for the backyard, front yard and beach front.
After wandering through the bedroom and bathroom everyone went down stairs to the kitchen.
"We don't have any food for the babies. So what do we do?" asked Steve
"Don't worry, look in the cupboards and the fridge" Danny replied. To their surprise it was stacked with baby food and labels as well as a timetable with when each item is used and how to use it.
"Where did all this come from?" Cath asked
"The Governor paid for all the food as a congratulations gift." Kono and Chin replied together in unison.
So after that clarification everyone finished lunch and their beers. For a treat Steve got Cath's bikini from their room and spare boardies for Danny (ones that he left when he crashed). Steve knew Grace, Samantha, Renee, Grover, Chin and Kono had all bought their swimmers so Steve let everyone play in the ocean. As it turned out the girls were in bikinis and the boys in boardies. The girls got the towels and the boys filled and esky with ice and beers and other drinks and food and water toys. They swam until sunset and they watched it with Cath in Steve's lap, Grace in Danny's, Chin next to Kono and Renee and Sam cuddled next to Grover while Kamekona cooked a BBQ dinner for everyone. By 10 p.m. everyone but Danny and Grace went home but they crashed at Uncle Steve's and Aunty Cath's house. Danny slept on the couch and Grace had a spare mattress on the floor in the nursery and slept there.
Sarah and Michael had a restless night which causes Steve, Cath and Grace to also have a sleepless night. Every time they woke Cath, Steve and Grace would rock them, feed them and put them back to sleep. At around 3 a.m. Steve woke to hearing a baby scream through the baby monitor so he got up and rocked Sarah back to sleep and let Cath try and get sleep. When he got to the nursery down the hall he found Grace rocking Sarah as Mike started crying. He was so tired he couldn't see but have to hear and listen to pick up the child. Danny had a perfect night sleep, Grace woke every time the twins did, and so did Steve and Cath. By morning Steve, Cath and Grace were all asleep so Danny made coffee, breakfast and left a note explain that they had a case; Steve could take as much time as he needed off and left a spare pair of clothes for Grace. Steve found the note and read it and smiled. He warmed up the breakfast and made another pot of coffee and just after Steve woke up so did Cath, she went and had a shower, changed into one of Steve's tops and joined him for breakfast. She then got Sarah and Michael to feed them while Steve carried Grace to their bedroom to sleep.
Steve was grateful for Grace's help, they probably couldn't do it all by themselves. As a reward for Grace Steve set up a savings account and Grace would get weekly payments for helping. Steve and Cath set up routines for work, babies and free time as well as a routine for feeding, sleeping and playing for the babies. As Danny and Steve would have to work, Cath and Danny have alternating days to pick up Grace from school, cheer practice and homework. Then she would help Sar and Mike. Having the alternating routine also helps Steve keep an eye on Cath. Steve and Grace were planning a surprise so after Grace finished her homework with help from Cath they went down to the shopping centre and got ice-creams while Steve got his dining room set up for a romantic dinner but the topic of this dinner wasn't a good one.
