"Grace, it's okay. It's gonna be okay," Steve spoke and Grace came out from underneath the beds. Steve picked up the two babies and tried to calm them down. "What happened?"

"A man came into the house and he took Aunt Cath," Grace cried.

"It's gonna be okay Gracie. You're safe now. I'll find your Aunt."

The babies had calmed down after a while. Steve took them downstairs and put them in their playpens. He pulled out his phone and called Danny.

"Hey Steve," Danny answered the phone.

"Danny, something's wrong. Catherine has been taken."

"What?! Is Grace okay?" Danny asked, concerned for his daughter.

"Yes, she's fine. The babies are fine too but Catherine is not here. Grace said someone came into the house and took her."

"Don't worry Steve, we'll find her. I'll get the others and we'll come your way."

Steve hung up the phone and looked at his two babies. He needed to find Catherine soon.

…..

"What do you want with me?" Catherine spat at her kidnapper.

"Why don't you ask your husband?"

"Steve? What does Steve have to do with it?"

"He's on to me. I can't let him destroy everything I've worked for."

"What? What's going on?"

"Don't play dumb with me. You know about the case your husband is working on."

"No, I don't. I'm on maternity leave. Please, I need to get back to my babies."

"So you can tell your husband what happened? I don't think so. You're not going anywhere."

"You're making a big mistake. My husband is gonna kill you when he finds out what you've done."

"He has to find me first."

Catherine sat back in her chair, which she was tied up to. She hoped Kye and Kailani were okay and that Steve was looking for her. Her breasts were started to hurt, meaning that the babies would be crying for milk soon.

…..

"Danno," Grace called as Danny walked into the house and walked up to him.

"Hey monkey," Danny replied as he gave her a hug. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. They took Aunt Cath."

"I know. We will find her monkey I promise."

Chin and Kono went to search around the house for any trace.

"Did you see who took Catherine?" Steve asked Grace.

"No, Aunt Cath saw him coming up to the house and told me to go upstairs and look after the babies. I heard some screams and then a car taking off. I was too afraid to go downstairs," Grace started crying.

"It's okay Grace. You're safe now and we'll get Catherine back. Do you remember what time it was?"

"Yes, I looked at the clock just before, it was just past 5pm."

Steve looked at his watch. It was over 2 hours ago.

"There's no sign of any forced entry or anything that could be traced back to him," Chin informed them.

"Damn it," Steve cursed.

"I bet that guy we saw in the forest yesterday has something to do with it," Chin stated.

"Why do you say that?" Danny asked.

"There was just something off about that guy. The drag marks led to his shed and he claims he didn't see or hear anything. He said nobody ever comes to that part of the forest so if someone did he probably would have noticed."

"Maybe you're right. There was something off with him," Steve spoke. "Kono, see what you can find on this guy."

"On it," Kono pulled out her laptop and started searching.

Kye started crying so Steve picked him up.

"It's okay buddy, we'll find mommy soon." Steve tried to calm him down but it wasn't working. He figured he might be hungry. So Steve walked to the kitchen and warmed up a bottle. "It's okay buddy. It's coming."

Once the bottle was warm Steve walked back to the living room and sat down on the couch. Kye immediately started drinking. While Steve was feeding Kye Kailani decided to cry too.

"Danny, can you feed her a bottle?"

"Sure. Come here little girl," Danny spoke as he picked up Kailani. He walked to the kitchen and warmed up a bottle. He sat down next to Steve and started feeding Kailani. She wouldn't take the bottle. "Come on sweetie, just drink."

"Why don't you take Kye to burp him, I'll take Kailani." They switched babies. Kailani wouldn't drink with Steve either. "Come on sweetie, I know you want mommy but she's not here right now. Be a good girl for daddy and just drink the bottle okay." After a while Kailani took the bottle. "There's a good girl."

After they had their bottles Steve put them down in their playpens. Grace sat and played with them.

"Did you find anything Kono?" Steve asked.

"Yes, the guy's name is really Frank Roberts. He came to Hawaii about a year ago. He changed his name because he was wanted for several killings on the mainland. All had the same MO as our victim."

"I told you there was something off with this guy," Chin spoke.

"Do you know where he is now?"

"Still looking."

"You know where his shed is right," Danny spoke.

"Yes, but he knows that so I'll doubt he'll go back there," Chin spoke.

"If he really is a serial killer he has a pattern. If that's where he killed the woman my guess is he has taken Catherine there too."

"It's worth checking out," Steve spoke. "Kono, can you watch Gracie and the twins and call us if you have something more?"

"Will do."

Steve, Danny and Chin went out to the forest.

"This was where the body was found," Danny stated.

"The shed was that way," Chin added as he pointed in the direction.

They walked in that direction. They came to an open space where the shed used to be.

"It was right here. I'm sure," Chin spoke.

"Yeah it was. Looks like he cleaned up shop," Steve spoke disappointed. "Damn it."

"We'll find Catherine Steve, don't worry."

They went back to the office.

….

Catherine sat tied up in what seemed like a basement. She hoped Steve would have found out she was missing by now and that he was taking care of the twins. Her breasts were hurting, she needed to feed the babies or pump the breast milk into a bottle. She hoped Steve would find her soon. The guy that kept her was really a creep. Luckily he hadn't touched her, yet. She looked around trying to find a way out of there. There was no way out except the stairs. If she could get loose she could try to escape. She tucked on the rope that bound her wrists but she couldn't get it looser. She looked around to see if there was anything sharp she could use.

…..

Kono had brought the kids to the office. Steve sat in his office holding his two babies.

"Don't worry, we will find mommy. Mommy is fine. We'll bring her back." Steve spoke to Kye and Kailani.

After a while they babies fell asleep. Steve put them in their travel beds and went to the others to see if they were any closer to finding Catherine.

"Have you got anything?" Steve asked.

"No activity on Roberts. If it's really him he's not showing himself," Kono answered.

"Check for known associates of Roberts. If it's not him maybe someone who knows his MO is doing this."

"Got it."

…..

It had been 4 hours ago since she had been taken. Her kidnapper hadn't come down anymore. Catherine finally had managed to get the rope off her wrists. She looked around for anything she could use as a weapon. She found a lead pipe. Carefully she walked up the stairs. She tried the door but it was locked. It had no use trying to kick the door in since it opened to her side. Hitting the door with the pipe would cause too much noise. She grabbed the wires from her bra and picked the lock on the door. Carefully she opened it. She looked around, she was in the kitchen. There was nobody to be seen. Quietly she walked further with the pipe in her hands, ready to strike. Her kidnapper was nowhere to be seen. She carefully walked to the front door. It was locked.

"Where do you think you're going?" A voice behind her spoke.

Catherine slowly turned around. Her kidnapper was standing there.

"You can't keep me here. My husband will find me, and when he does he's gonna kill you."

"He's gotta find you first."

"He will! And then you're a dead man."

"Do you really think he'll shoot when I have a gun to your head?"

Before Catherine could respond the man had grabbed her by her throat and held her tight and the door opened and Steve and the others walked in.

"Drop the gun!" Steve spoke, his weapon aimed at Roberts.

"You're not gonna shoot me. You don't wanna risk hitting your wife."

"I'm not gonna ask again. Drop the gun!"

"You're not gonna shoot me commander."

Catherine looked in Steve's eyes. She saw what his plan was. Steve gave her a nod and Catherine punched the guy in his stomach with her elbow causing him to loosen his grip on Catherine. Catherine ducked aside just before Steve shot him. Steve hit him in the arms. Roberts aimed the gun at Steve but Steve was quicker and shot him again, in his chest. The man fell down on the ground.

Danny ran up to Roberts and cleared his gun while Steve went to Catherine.

"Are you okay Cath?" Steve asked as he cupped her face.

"I'm fine Steve. I'm fine. He didn't hurt me."

Steve gave her a kiss and gathered her in his arms. He was so glad that she was okay. All the tension left Catherine's body and she started to cry.

"It's okay honey, it's over. You're safe."

"Are the twins okay?"

"They are perfectly fine. They are at the office. Kamekona is looking after them. Come on let's get out of here."

LAPD stayed behind to clean the scene. Roberts was dead. As soon as they walked into the office Catherine ran into Steve's office. She stopped when she saw the twins sleeping peacefully in their travel beds.

"Don't worry sister, they are absolutely fine," Kamekona told her.

"Mahalo for watching them Kamekona."

"You're welcome. Glad to see you're okay." Kamekona gave her a hug.

Steve walked after her in his office.

"Mahalo Kamekona."

"Don't worry bra. They are two little angels."

Kamekona left and Steve walked up to Catherine who was looking at the twins.

"See honey," Steve spoke as he hugged her from behind. "They are perfectly fine."

"Can we go home?"

"Sure."

Steve and Catherine carefully picked up the twins and put them in their car seats. Catherine carried the car seats while Steve carried the travel beds and the diaper bag. Catherine fell asleep on the ride home. Steve took the kids inside first and went back to get Catherine. He gently put her down on the bed. Steve wanted to let her go but Catherine held him tight.

"Don't go," Catherine spoke half asleep.

"I'll be right back honey. Just gotta lock up and put the twins in bed. I'll be right back I promise."

Steve gave her a kiss and Catherine let go of him. Steve quickly locked up and put the twins in their beds. He took his clothes off and got into bed. As soon as he was in bed Catherine crawled against him.

"Can you hold me honey?"

"Of course, you're safe no honey. Just get some sleep okay. I'll be right here if you need me."

Steve gave her a soft kiss on her head and held her tight in his arms. A little later they both feel asleep.

Around 2am they woke up by the babies crying. Steve went to get them. He handed Kailani to Catherine and went to get a bottle warm for Kye.

"Hey there little girl, mommy's right here again," Catherine spoke as she exposed her breast. Kailani immediately started drinking. "There's a good girl. Mommy missed you."

Steve walked in with Kye and a bottle and watched as Catherine fed their little girl. He was glad that Catherine was back again and that she was unharmed. Steve sat down next to Catherine and fed Kye the bottle.

"Kailani really prefers you for feeding. She would hardly take the bottle when you were away."

"Did she drink though?"

"Yes she did, after a while she took the bottle."

"That's good. It feels good to feed her again. My breasts were hurting a lot."

"They did?"

"Yeah cus I couldn't feed them or pump the breast milk out."

"Ah, I didn't know that they would start to hurt after a while."

"Oh yes, it was very uncomfortable."

Catherine leaned against Steve when Kailani was finished drinking and was burped.

"I'm glad they are alright."

"I didn't leave them alone for one second after you were taken."

"They are lucky to have a daddy like you."

"They are lucky to have a mommy like you."

"We can handle it, raising twins. Just as long as we're together."

"Yes honey, we can handle it. We can handle it together. We're strong together."

They babies fell asleep in their arms. Catherine had fallen asleep too. Steve picked the babies up and put them back in their cribs.

….

The twins were now 2 weeks old. Catherine still had 6 weeks off. The babies were really cute. They had settled into a good routine with the twins. Kailani was starting to drink from the bottle better so that way Steve could feed her at night too.

Steve had left for work already. He had fed the twins before he left so Catherine could stay in bed a little longer. She got out at 9am. She got the twins dressed and took them downstairs. She put them in their bouncy chairs as she fixed herself a bowl of cereal.

She watched the twins as she ate breakfast. They looked up to her with their beautiful eyes. Kye really looked a lot like Steve while Kailani looked more like Catherine. It was a beautiful day, so after she finished breakfast she took the kids outside. She put them on their play mats in the shade. They were laughing as Catherine played with them. They were so precious. Catherine had fallen in love with them from the moment she saw them.

She still couldn't believe how her life had turned out. She was married to a man she loved more than anything and they had two beautiful kids together. She felt so lucky as she looked at the twins.

She took some pictures of the twins as they played.

In the afternoon she put the kids in the stroller and went to the grocery store. It was a short walk so she decided to go by foot. They had a pretty handy stroller. You could use is as a double stroller next to each other. But you also could put one stroller in front of the other, which made it easier to push it when you were alone.

Within 20 minutes Catherine was at the store. She walked through the aisles and got food for dinner tonight.

When she got home she put the twins down for their nap. While they were asleep Catherine got some housework done.

Around 4pm Kye woke up. Catherine took him out so Kailani could sleep a bit more. Just as she came down the stairs Steve walked in.

"Hey honey," Steve greeted her.

"Hey baby," Catherine gave him a kiss. "What are you doing home so early?"

"It was a pretty slow day so decided to get home early. Hey Kye." Kye smiled as Steve picked him up. "Have you been a good boy to mommy today?"

"Yes, he's been a very good boy."

"That's good. Where's your sister?"

"She's still asleep."

"Ah that's fine."

Steve sat down on the couch and played with Kye. Kye loved it when Steve played airplane with him. Catherine quickly took out her camera and made some pictures of Steve and Kye. He was really such a sweet daddy. She couldn't have wished for a better daddy to Kye and Kailani.

A little later Kailani woke up as well. Catherine went to get her and together they sat on the couch for a while.

"I love you very much," Steve told Catherine.

"I love you too."

"Thank you for giving me these beautiful kids."

"I couldn't have done that without you," Catherine joked.

"No that's right," Steve replied with a smile and kissed her.

Steve went to make dinner and Catherine stayed on the couch with the twins.

Catherine and Steve fed the twins once more before going to bed at 11pm. Catherine was already in bed when Steve joined her. Catherine was on her side reading a book. Steve crawled up behind her and planted kisses on her shoulder and neck.

"Steve, what are you doing?"

"Just kissing my wife."

Catherine put her book away and turned around on her back.

"They kids are asleep so we have some time for just you and me."

Steve went back to kissing her again.

"Steve, as much as I love this, we can't."

"Why can't we?"

"It's too short after the delivery. I can't have sex yet."

"I didn't say anything about sex. I was just kissing you."

"Yes, and we all know where our kissing will lead to."

Steve replied with a smile and kissed her again but Catherine pushed him away.

"I'm serious Steve. As much I would love to make love to you, we can't just yet."

"Can I just kiss you then? I promise no making love, or anything like that."

"Alright then."

Steve lowered his lips towards her and kissed her deeply. He loved his wife so much. He couldn't wait to make love to her again. Catherine put her arms around his neck and kissed him back. God, this man was such a good kisser. He was just so passionate every time they were together. Catherine wanted to make love to him but she knew she wasn't ready for it.

'Just 4 more weeks,' she told herself. 4 long weeks that would be.

Catherine was breathless when Steve stopped kissing her. How was it that this man had this effect on her? She loved him with all her heart and he loved her just as much.

"I love you Steve McGarrett."

"And I love you Catherine McGarrett."

Steve kissed her once more and gathered her in his arms as they fell asleep together. A few hours later they woke up by a loud cry. Steve went out to get Kye. He did his best to calm him down but nothing was working.
