Catherine received a call from Steve and answered the call in a sad voice. "Hey."
"Hey, Cath. I'm waiting for you at the hospital door, will you still take long?"
"Oh, Steve, forgive me. I completely forgot that you were going to wait for me today. I'm already home," Catherine said, and Steve realized from her voice that she was not well.
"Okay, so I'm going to your apartment," Steve replied. He got in the car and in five minutes he was with her. "Did something happen, Cath?"
"Yan went to the hospital and made me feel very embarrassed and he made a scene in front of the chief surgeon's office, in the presence of several patients," Catherine replied.
"So this is the name of that bastard?" Steve asked.
"Yes. And I got fired," Catherine replied.
"I'm sorry, Cath."
Catherine just nodded.
Steve hugged her lovingly, put his head against her head and was stroking her hair.
"I need a headache pill," Catherine said and Steve released her. She went to the bedroom and Steve went right after her.
"What is it, Cath?" Steve asked when he saw her suitcase on the bed.
"I can't stay here, Steve."
"Ok. So let's go to my place."
"I can't stay on the island, Steve."
"What? What about us, Cath? You can't let this guy separate us. Don't you understand that this is what he wants?" Steve told her.
"I can't allow him to make your life hell," Catherine told Steve.
Steve took the suitcase off the bed and placed it on the floor. He pulled Catherine to the bed, kissed her and hugged her. "My life will be hell if I run out of you."
Catherine stroked his face and said nothing.
"He's not going to take you away from me," Steve said and hugged her as if they were one. "Come here."
A few hours later they arrived at Steve's house. Steve took her bags to the room and she followed him. Catherine sat on the bed while he took fresh sheets. "It's not necessary, Steve. This one is clean. Unless you've been here with another woman. Have you been?" Catherine asked.
"Of course not, Catherine. I am faithful to you."
Catherine felt ashamed. "I'm sorry, I don't even know what I'm talking about anymore."
"Okay, Cath. Rest now."
Catherine lay down and Steve covered her. "I'm going to order something for us to eat and I'll call you when the food arrives. Try not to think about him and what happened today," Steve told her.
"You hit him. Why?" Catherine asked.
Because he wanted to break into his apartment and once he got in he wouldn't be leaving. But you have me, Cath, you are no longer alone and he needed to know that, "Steve replied.
"Thank you for defending me, for taking care of me."
"You're welcome," Steve replied.
The next day Catherine stayed at Steve's and he went to see Danny. He needed to open up to someone.
"I don't want her to leave, Danny."
"What the hell! Did this guy have to show up just now that you were so happy with her?" Danny replied.
"What do I do if he insists on chasing her, Danny?"
"Arrest him," Danny replied, but then pondered about the situation. "Or rather, ask Duke to do that. You are too committed to make any decisions."
"Thanks for the advice, friend."
"You're welcome. Now go to work and relax," Danny told him.
"Okay. See you later," Steve replied.
Steve left Danny's room and Rachel was in the living room. She accompanied him to the door.
"Thanks for taking care of him, Rachel."
Rachel smiled. "Well, Someone needs to do the dirty work, Steve. He's really boring!"
Steve smiled too. "I can imagine. Bye, Rachel."
"Bye, Steve."
The days that followed were calm and Catherine didn't see Yan anymore. Steve left the headquarters anxious to get home because there was someone waiting for him, and that was something that was very good for his heart.
"Cath, I'm here!"
"I'm here in the bedroom, Steve!" she shouted.
Steve ran up the stairs. "Hi, honey," he said and leaned over to kiss her.
"Hi, honey," Catherine replied.
"I'm going to take a shower and I'll be right back," he told her.
Steve was in the shower when she got in the shower stall, too. "Hey. I thought you were feeling alone and so I came."
"Great, I love your company," Steve told her and they were kissing.
"Say that you love me and that we will be together forever," Catherine told him between one kiss and another.
"I love you and we will be together forever."
The next day, Junior was at headquarters when a package was delivered.
"It's for Mr. McGarret," said the boy.
"It will be delivered to him. Thank you," Junior replied to the boy.
Junior shook the box slightly. "What could that be?"
