Author Note: I mixed seasons 2-4, I have a bunny that came in my sleep and I can't get it out of my head, so bear with me, and enjoy Danny's angst.

Disclaimer: These characters are not mine, but the plot is… Poor Danny though.


Danny needed to be somewhere else, and Kawika suggested he could help the bank security guards, since this bank had a lot of robberies lately, and even though the bank manager asked for help from HPD he didn't get a response, and so he asked the Kapu to help instead.

Danny drove his car to the Bank of Hawaii, and parked near the entrance, after all, he needed to watch the bank and see what was happening, and maybe find the reason the bank was being robbed so many times.

Danny noticed his Kapu friends park their car close to him and smiled, he was glad that Kawika was not giving up on him, and for the first time, even though he was haole, he felt that he found his Ohana.

He noticed that at night the place was completely dark, so the ex-cop decided he may as well get a night sleep and watch the morning routine instead, he turned off the lights and the engine, left a little crack though his window so he could feel the night air, and then adjusted the driver seat and went to sleep.

The knock on the window seemed to wake him, it has taken a while since he didn't sleep that much recently, and to be woken up in the morning by a knock surprised him at first, Danny thought that it was HPD, but he was wrong.

The man holds two coffee cups and a bag as he knocked again.

Danny adjusted his driver seat so he could see the man, and then he opened the passenger seat door and invited him inside the car.

"Who are you?" Danny asked as the man sat next to him and gave him the coffee.

"I know who you are, you can't imagine my surprise when I saw the silver car, " the man said and then added, "My name is Scott Louge, I'm the manager of the Bank of Hawaii, I came to say thank you, and I know that you'll do more than any cop or security guard, and ever since I saw the video, I wished you'll come save the bank as well, and here you are."

Danny smiled, it felt good to be needed and appreciated.

No one else bought him a drink and gave him malsaladas while he was on the streets, this man was special.

"So, do you have anyplace to sleep?" Scott asked him, and looked around the car, noticing the mass, but he said nothing, it wasn't his place to point.

"I'm settled, thank you Scott." Danny smiled at him and noticed Scott smiled at him back.

"Well, if you need anything, I'm inside the bank." Scott told him and left the car still smiling.

Scott kindness made Danny felt warm, and he remembered Scott's green eyes shining at him as he smiled. Something seem to open the lock on his heart, but he knew that he needed to take things slowly, he has been hurt too many times in the past.

His first day as he watched the bank from his car went very fast, although he tried to keep from thinking about the man, he found his mind wondering. But Danny tried to stay focused on the job. The ex-cop watched from his car, noting the motions of the employees as they closed up the bank, and the bank manager, Scott, was the last one to leave the bank, close the lights and lock the door, and Danny could see the alarm working.

Just as Danny decided he need to settle in his car for the night there was a knock on the window, which startled him a little. He turned his head and noticed it was Scott.

"Oh, it's you," Danny said and then asked, "Is everything all right?"

"Well, I was supposed to ask you that," Scott smiled at him and asked, "Can I sit down?"

"Sure." Danny said and waited for the man to come around and sit next to him.

"Look, I know it is very soon, even though I met you this morning, but I can't see you in that car and I can't bear thinking how you can even manage to sleep in it and living on the street. I have a spare room and I live close to the bank and there's a view toward the bank," Scott said and noticed the frown forming on the guy's face next to him, and then he added, "I know it's too soon, even though it's the first day I had to ask, take all the time that you need, the offer stands indefinitely, so no strings attached, no worries now."

"I really appreciate everything you've been doing for me, I truly am, but it's too soon, and I don't know you at all, so…" Danny replied, smiling at him.

"I know, I know, too soon, well, I'll see you tomorrow, it was nice to finally meet you, I know now that the bank is in good hands." Scott said with big smile on his face and he left the car.

Once the bank manager left his car, Danny couldn't stop smiling, the man certainly knew what to say and how to act, and the ex-cop felt like Scott been flirting with him a bit, even offered him a place to sleep, maybe there was hope for him after all.

Having seen Danny and Scoot, the two Kapu members Danny befriended, Levi and Diego, left their car and knocked on the window of Danny's car. They had some idea about Scott's offer and were wondering why Danny did not take him up on it.

"It's too soon Levi, I don't think it is the right time to start a relationship and I don't think that he and I are on the same page." Danny mumbled as he looked at his friends, he noticed the smug on their faces.

"You are wrong about that Danny," Levi said, "we both could see the way that he looked at you," and Diego added as he asked him, "Do you even know that he came to us before knocking on your car window?"

Danny didn't know that, but it didn't matter, he had a job to do, and Scott probably would not be coming to his car daily.

"I didn't know, well, tomorrow is a new day, and I need a good night sleep and hopefully it will be as quiet as it was today."

"Good night brah, we'll see you in the morning." Diego said, still having a smug face as both left Danny.


On the next day Danny was woken up by a smell of coffee in the air and found Scott's face staring at him.

"It's good to see you wake up, I didn't want to wake you, you slept so peacefully." Scott said softly as he walked toward the passenger door and opened it and let himself into the car.

Danny adjusted his driver's seat back and cleaned his eyes and then he stared at Scott in awe, the man has come again.

"I brought peace offering in case in what I offered you last night might have hurt or offended you." Scott said with a smile, while his green eyes shone with light.

"Well, if that is a peace offering, I'm flattered, I really am, but I'm not ready, I was burnt too many times before." Danny apologized to him.

"It's quite alright, I've been there, but… well, will you consider just a dinner on the weekend, or the next weekend?" Scott asked, while moving his hand nervously through his hair.

"Probably next weekend…" Danny replied and then he asked Scott while watching the man. "so… is that a date?"

"It could be more than one date, and if you want to get ready in my apartment let me know, and let me be the one that drive you and then I will take you back to your car, unless you'll take my offer?"

"It's too soon for that, but I'll take you up for the date offer and then a ride back to my car."

"I can't wait for the next weekend then; I am looking forward to get to know you more." Scott said and left the car as he left Danny the coffee and food.
