Lindsay was awoken by the bright morning sun rudely casting its light over her face. She groaned and rolled on her side so the light was out of her face, but when she rolled over she came face to face with Steve, who was still sleeping. She stared at him for a minute replaying the events from last night in her head then carefully got out of bed making sure not to wake him. She slid on his shirt, which was lying beside the bed, and made her way downstairs. The sun downstairs was even brighter than the sun upstairs, and Lindsay was mildly regretting her choice of coming down. She headed straight for the kitchen and put on a pot of coffee, then hopped up on the counter waiting for it to finish. She looked around the kitchen, remembering when she wasn't even tall enough to reach the top of the counter, let alone hop up on it. She smiled to herself remembering all the good times she had there, and thinking about how after last night she could add one more to that list. When the coffee maker stopped, she grabbed 2 cups poured the coffee and made her way back upstairs. Before fully entering the room, she peeked in to see if Steve was still asleep, when she was he was, she entered quietly and made her way over to the bed, carefully getting back in and holding the steaming cup up near Steve's face. After a few seconds, his eyes slowly opened looking at the mug in front of his face, then up to the girl holding the mug. She smiled at him. "Morning, thought you might like some coffee."
He sat up in bed, taking the cup from her. "Coffee delivered by a beautiful girl wearing nothing but my shirt. I think I could get used to it."
She chuckled, taking a sip from her cup. "Tell me something."
"Sure."
"Since when was Steve McGarrett jacked?" She smirked after saying that, taking another sip of coffee.
He chuckled, then looked at her in mock offense, "I've been jacked for quite a while thank you."
"You definitely didn't look like that before you left," she not so subtly checked him out, "Navy was good to you."
He set his mug on the table beside the bed and crossed his arms. "Well I definitely don't remember you looking like that before I left either," he said looking her up and down.
She followed his action and set her mug on the opposite table, moving over to be closer to him. "I guess time's been good to us." She leaned in, kissing him. He lengthened the kiss, then flipped them both over so she was lying on the bed. When he finally broke the kiss, she looked up at him smiling, and then chuckled.
"What?"

"I also didn't realize until last night that you had this," she said tugging on the tiny patches of grey at the edges of his hair.
He raised his eyebrows and smirked a bit. "So what else did you judge last night?"
She laughed, "Hey! I wasn't judging. I'm admiring. Grey hair, good thing. Makes you look more…distinguished. Jacked, very good thing."
He leaned down kissing her again, "Anything else you took the time to admire?"
She giggled as he wiggled his eyebrows, and then kissed him. Right then, Steve's phone went off. He stopped and sighed, reaching over to it reluctantly, not wanting to answer it. "McGarrett."
"Oh! You ARE alive. You just decide not to show up to work today, is that how it goes? I see." The last person Steve wanted to be on the other end of the phone right now was of course the only person who would call him at this inopportune of a moment.
Lindsay gave Steve a confused look, and tilted the phone away from him to answer her. "It's my partner, I'm late for work."
Lindsay nodded and Steve put the phone back to his face just to hear Danny say, "The only excuse I will accept from you is that you went out with your mystery girl last night and things very well."
"Well then I guess I'll talk to you later."

"Whoa, whoa, wh-" Steve ended the call, tossing his phone back onto the table. "So where were we?"
Lindsay giggled as Steve kissed her neck. "I thought you had to go to work."
He didn't take his face out of the crook of her neck, "I work every day, all day, I think it will be okay if I stay in bed with you for a while."
"Oooookay, but if Hawaii falls to pieces because you were late for work, I claim no responsibility."

"I'm sure Hawaii will be fine for 2 hours."
"2 hours?"
Steve smirked devilishly, "I like to take my time."
