Does it hurt anywhere else?
Chin and Steve finally stumbled through the door around two a.m. in the morning, supporting each other as they attempted to walk straight. Danny was still up to greet them, since he was used to staying up late filling out some reports.
"D-a-n-n-o!" Steve slurred with enthusiasm. "Hey, you're still up!"
Danny chuckled. "Of course I am. I was just going over some latest reports. So how was your last night in freedom?"
Chin chimed in. "Oh man, Danny, it's a good thing you weren't there. You would have popped a vein at how many men...and women were throwing themselves at Steve."
Danny wrinkled his nose. "Thanks dude, for that unnecessary commentary." He noticed something strange in Steve's gait. "Is he limping?!" Danny threw a disapproving glare at Chin.
Chin winced. "Yes… well, about that… Mr Super SEAL here decided he was gonna slide across the bar. Knucklehead went and hurt himself."
Danny rushed to Steve's side, and together with Chin, they placed him on the couch.
"Where does it hurt?" he asked Steve.
He shook his head. "I'm 'kay, Da-n-no. Nothin's broken."
Danny looked at Chin and asked with his eyes. "I've already checked, nothing's broken. It's only bruised."
Danny sighed. "Okay. Can you get me a ice pack from the freezer?"
Chin nodded and headed to the kitchen. Danny started to unbuckling his partner's pants, and chuckled when Steve wiggled with anticipation.
"Don't get too excited, Super SEAL, I'm just checking your leg." Danny rolled his eyes when Steve stuck out his bottom lip in a pout.
Chin returned with the ice pack. "Okay!" he blurted. "Clothes coming off means it's time for me to leave." He waved at Danny. "See you later, Danny."
"See 'ya Chin."
Danny turned back to Steve with a sigh and placed the ice pack on his thigh. "It's a good thing it's just your leg," he remarked drily. "At least the pictures won't be ruined."
"D-a-n-n-o," Steve sing songed. "My leg hurts."
He patted his partner's leg patiently. "I know it does. That's why I'm icing it."
Steve pouted again. "Can you kiss it?"
Danny bit his lips and turned his head to the side, stifling a laugh. He turned back to Steve with a smile. "Would that make you feel better?"
He nodded with a grin.
Danny took off the ice pack and touched his lips to the swelling on Steve's thigh.
"Higher," he said with a smirk.
Danny raised an eyebrow at him, and kissed a little higher on his thigh.
"More higher." Steve waggled his eyebrow.
Danny laughed out loud. "I don't think so, Super SEAL. Can you even get it up? You've had a lot to drink."
Steve pursed his lips, and then smirked again. "You always wake him up. You're pow'rful like that."
Danny leaned his head against Steve's knee and giggled. "Tell you what," he bargained. "If you're able to stay awake for the next half hour, we'll see."
Steve frowned playfully. "S'not fair. I'm fading already."
"Mm-hmm, that's what I thought." Danny got up and crawled onto Steve's lap. "Does it hurt anywhere else?"
His partner smiled. "My face kinda hurts."
"Oh really?" Danny smirked. He kissed Steve's forehead and each cheek. "Is that better?"
"My chin hurts too."
Danny giggled and then kissed his partner's chin.
Steve grinned at him. "I think I bit my tongue when I fell."
Danny threw his head back and laughed. He held Steve's face in his hands, and kissed him passionately.
"Dan-no," Steve murmured when they pulled apart."
"Hmm."
"You're gonna be my husband."
Danny's heart soared at the wonder he heard in Steve's words. "I am," he agreed.
"Dan-no," his partner whispered.
"Steve," he whispered back.
"I love you."
Danny leaned his head against Steve's. "I love you too."
Danny stayed in that position for a few minutes, enjoying the intimacy he shared with this freaking, amazing man. He giggled when he heard a soft snore, knowing Steve was officially down for the count. He pulled back to stare at his partner's face. He looked so peaceful when he slept.
With a sigh of contentment, Danny got off Steve's lap and took off his shoes. He gently pushed him sideways to lay out on the couch. Danny got himself ready to sleep, and then wedged himself behind Steve, spooning against him. Danny threw his leg over Steve's waist, and he smiled as his partner unconsciously hugged it tightly.
"Good night, my Super SEAL," he whispered.
Danny gave Steve a final kiss on his neck and closed his eyes to sleep.
