If this were on TV it would be on Cable and rated NC-17. But, um, CBS owns 'em so, we're good. I just had to get this out of my head and on to screen so it could be seen and hopefully, reviewed, please!

Steve was impressed that Max felt comfortable enough to use his first name for a change and smiled a rueful smile back at his Medical Examiner. "Thanks for the info, Max."
Danny found a listing of the prisoners paroled over the next week from Halawa and sent uniformed Police from HPD to check on them so they had a shot at staying alive. Remarkably, the parolees wanted to be protected from this nut. One prisoner, Sam Murphy, had been contacted by a 'policeman' earlier in the day and had given this person his schedule for the next week because he was going to protect him. Danny and Steve now knew that this was their shooter and, when they had the description of the shooter, knew it was Sergeant Achou Sumano. When they did the background check on his life, they discovered that his wife had been killed by a paroled murderer from Halawa so, he went rogue and decided that they all must die for their crimes so they could not hurt anyone else and devastate another family like his again. It took Danny and Steve ten days of watching Murphy to catch Sumano but, when they did, he died in a fire fight with HPD and 5-0 rather than be put in jail for his crimes. He claimed he was taking care of the garbage Halawa threw out into society. Murphy was paroled for both his good behavior and the fact that he was in a nursing home for a stroke he suffered in Prison. He thanked Danny and Steve for saving his life because he was finally back in touch with his son and his two grandkids and he wanted to live to make amends for being in jail for so long.
This case made Danny and Steve want to have Debbie have their child. The appointment to make the donation came and they went to the clinic to create the sperm donation. They were ushered to a private room and given a specimen jar and told by the nurse to "take their time, dolls."
Steve was nervous about doing this but then, Danny stripped off his clothes and walked to Steve naked and needy. Steve was undressed and ready in two minutes flat. Soon after Danny started touching him, Steve was so turned on he willingly gave a sample just so that Danny would let him have an orgasm-his first one in eleven days-so he could maybe have mind-melting sex with his Danno that night.
Debbie was given Steve's sample and told she had to rest for the next few days and that she would know if it worked and she was pregnant in about three weeks, according to Doctor Michio, her OBGYN.
Danny, Debbie and Steve were on pins and needles until the time had passed. Debbie went to the doctor's office a month after the procedure and had her blood drawn for the pregnancy test. They went out to dinner after the test was done so they could try to relax but, their nerves were all on edge. Debbie's phone rang. Dr. Michio called and said, "Congratulations, Ms. Williams, you are indeed pregnant! We would like for you to come into the office for an ultrasound in eight weeks to check on your progress but, you are about four weeks along."
Debbie thanked the doctor and turned to the boys who were waiting on pins and needles as she hung up the phone. Danny looked into her eyes and he KNEW. "Debs, it worked, didn't it? We're gonna have a baby, huh?" When she nodded, Steve picked Danny up and spun him around and said, "We did it! We're gonna be parents!" They were all crying when they called Danny and Debbie's parents to tell them the procedure worked on the first try. It was a very happy day in the Williams and McGarrett households. When they told Grace, she screamed with happiness about being a big sister again. "I hope it's a girl so I can finally have a sister!"
Eight weeks later, Danny, Steve, and Debbie were in Dr. Michio's office for their first ultrasound. Dr. Michio looked at the screen and was instantly confused. She ordered another blood test on Debbie and said, "Your hormone levels are a bit wonky so, I want to see if the blood work can help clear up the issue for us. I will be back in twenty minutes with those results. Hang in there. She is pregnant-there is no doubt of that, Mr. McGarrett, Commander, sir."
Danny and Steve just sat there with Debbie. All were confused. They decided to play dollar bill poker to kill time and, of course Danny won because he had his ringer bill which had four nines in the serial number. He never let anyone know he had this bill and smirked as they handed over their dollars to him in victory. Steve knew something was seriously up with Debbie's blood work when Dr. Michio and her boss, Dr. Flores came into the now seemingly smaller exam room and looked at her ultrasound images.
Debbie could not take the whispered words any longer. "Um, Dr. Michio, what is going on here? You say I'm pregnant but my hormone levels are off in your books. What is the result of the latest blood work? Come on, you have to know stress is not good for a pregnant lady which you say I am so, what gives here?"
Dr Michio cleared her throat and said, "Well, Debbie, you are indeed pregnant. We are looking at your results and I am just amazed that at age 39, you conceived not just one baby but three. I had to triple check your results but, I see three heartbeats in your womb and I can make out the images of three little fetuses in there. This is why I had to make sure before I just came out and told you all what I saw. Congratulations, Danny and Steve. Triplets."
Debbie's jaw just hung on her chest. Danny and Steve were openly crying. Debbie said, "Guys, I hope you're ready for triplets. This is going to be a high-risk pregnancy as I am 39 and there is more than one baby in here. I am going to have to be careful and you are going to have to deal with my insane cravings and my moodiness. I am going to apologize right here so, you know I am sorry for any weirdness I cause you and our ohana. I love you two so much!"
Dr. Michio scheduled Debbie's next appointment for two months later and said, "As much as you can, get bed rest and relax. Off your feet as much as you can, please. You guys are going to have to be careful with her, she is your precious cargo carrier for the next six months-NO STRESS for her, OK?"
When they both numbly nodded at her instructions, she said, "Debbie, get them home. They are in no shape to catch bad guys right now. Call your family and let them know the good news." Debbie collected her appointment card, her brother and brother in law and drove them all back to Casa de McGarrett. She pulled the boys inside the home and set about making dinner for them all-stuffed chicken, whipped potatoes and pressure-cooked carrots.
Steve woke up from his shock induced nap hearing a rattling noise in his kitchen. He reached for his gun and crept into the room, listening to that rattle noise getting louder. Debbie came around the island and saw Steve on his knees listening to the sound.
She burst out laughing at his stance and said, "I rooted around in your cabinets and, wonder of wonders, I found a pressure cooker in the back of your pantry. I am making Danny's favorite comfort food-stuffed chicken, whipped potatoes, and pressure-cooked carrots. Let me guess, you've never even seen this thing much less heard one, huh?"
He flushed in embarrassment. "Debbie, I never knew I had one of those. I thought it was a bomb in my kitchen, to be honest. But, now that I can smell everything cooking, I have to say it smells SO good in here!" He kissed her on the cheek. "If you ever want to be our cook, I would be willing to pay you to come and cook for us once a week for life!"
Debbie smiled and said, "Steve, I am looking for a permanent place here. I want to live near my brother again. I miss brother very much. Plus, this gives me a chance to see Grace grow up and I adore my niece!"
Danny heard what Debbie said and his heart floated with the love she showed him in front of Steve. "Debs, I would love to have you live here. I miss my little sister, my partner in crime. You are so amazing!" He walked into the kitchen and hugged Debbie, kissing her on the cheek. He then stepped to Steve and kissed him on the lips and stepped into his embrace.
Time passed and the next sonogram appointment came for Debbie, Danny and Steve. Dr. Michio did all the tests as usual and then turned to the sonogram. Danny and Steve were looking over her shoulders at the images of their kids on the screen. "There they are guys. Your triplets are progressing along normally. You can make out the arms and legs. Next month, we should be able to determine the sexes of the children if you want to know that info. We can schedule that appointment now for you, Debbie."
Dr. Michio printed out the sonogram images for Danny and Steve and watched as they took pictures of them with their phones and immediately put them as their screen savers. Steve and Danny were on Cloud Nine with the way Debbie was being careful and they were loving taking care of her. She had finished her book and her publisher was very happy with how it was doing on the best sellers lists. Her book, 'Hawaiian Road Trip: Stories from Paradise' was into its third printing already and she was well on her way to becoming world famous as a writer. She had over half a million in her checking account and her publisher bought her a condominium ready to move into the moment she was ready.
Danny and Steve could not be more proud of her and what she had accomplished. They were in the process of getting the cribs and changing table and dressers set up in the third bedroom for the triplets. Steve was in the process of drawing up plans with an architect to add on an extension to the house to add a library on the main floor for Danny and his book collection and another bedroom for the kids so there would be enough space for them to live comfortably and happily.
It was now Valentine's Day. Danny and Steve were with Debbie at her sonogram appointment and Dr. Michio brought up the images on her screen. "Danny, Steve, Debbie-the sexes are visible now. It looks like you are having two boys and a girl. This could mean that you have three eggs drop at the same time which is rare or, you had two drop and you are having identical twins and a sister. At any rate in May, you are going to find out and it will be amazing. They all look happy and healthy and all the genetic tests we did show no abnormalities. You are going to have perfect babies around the middle of May. Here are your new sonogram pictures, boys. I think we can start thinking of names if you are ready. We will schedule one more sonogram for her eight month exam and set her up for weekly appointments from here on out to monitor the size of the babies and her blood pressure. Nothing to worry about, yet. Just a precaution to make sure mom and babies are doing well."
Danny and Steve were not going to celebrate Valentine's Day. It was a girl's holiday anyway so, they were not going to worry about forced romance on this night. They weren't into hearts and flowers-they were guys. But, still, Steve wanted to show Danny how much he loved him for everything he gave to his life. He figured Valentine's Day and all the love in the air were perfect reasons to go all out and surprise his Danno with a demonstration of his love.
To accomplish this, he enlisted Kono, Adam and Chin to help organize and set up the back yard (they couldn't completely leave Debbie to fend for herself as pregnant as she was). Chin set up the two-man tent in the back yard just off the lanai. Kono and Adam put a big cooler in the sand just off the tent entrance with their favorite Longboards and a bottle of Adam's private reserve champagne on ice. Kono put a bowl of strawberries and whipped cream inside the tent in a tray of ice. They puffed up the pillows and laid out a sleeping bag for two and quietly left around the other side of the house so Danny did not see Steve's assistants scurrying around.
Steve pulled him into the doorway of their home and whipped out a blindfold. "I have a surprise for you, Jersey. Put this on and I will guide you to it. I just hope you like it, mio amore."
Danny was so curious that he did as his SEAL asked him but he said, "Steven, I didn't need you to do a thing for me today of all days. I keep telling you, I am not the bride or the woman in this relationship. You think you are the only one who can play the romance card? I can put on a good wooing if given half the chance, thank you very much. You just wait and see, my love. Wait and see."
Steve guided him to the backyard and smiled at how good everything looked. He definitely owed Kono and Chin raises for being so good to him and his Danno. When he had Danny in the right spot to reveal his romantic idea for the night, he said in his ear, "Danno, take off the blindfold and enjoy, mio amore."
As Danny took in the tent and the cooler, he smiled. "Well, this is a guy's version of Valentine's Day-a camp out. I love it, Steven. This is perfect. Just about, I mean…. It COULD be perfect if there was one more thing…"
"And, um, what would that one more thing be, Danno? Huh?"
"You and me-inside that hopefully all-weather tent real soon. Why? Because, it looks like we are gonna get drowned in rain if we stay out here too much longer!" Danny dove inside as did Steve just as the sky opened up, the rain came down hard against the tent walls and the waves pounded against the shoreline behind them.
Steve slid down on the sleeping bag next to Danny and said, "I was a SEAL, Danny. Of course the tent is an all-weather one. And, it is only for two on purpose. I want to be close to you, il mio amore, Danno. I want you, always. Can you handle forever with me?"
Danny snorted. He reached into his jeans pocket and pulled out a small box. "I did get you a little something. Mind you, nowhere near as romantic as a tent by the sea in a rain storm but, hey, I tried, right?"
Steve opened the box and pulled out a chain necklace with a St. Michael and a St. Christopher medal on it. Danny put it on Steve's neck and said into his skin, "St. Michael is the patron saint of policemen and St. Christopher is the patron saint of travelers. I know you don't travel as much as you used to but, he is there just in case you have to go anywhere where I can't be your back up. Ti adoro, Steven. Always and forever, mine!"
Steve kissed his Jersey Man and sighed into his arms. "Well, there is one good thing about this amazing loud obnoxious rainstorm on Valentine's Night, Danno. It means we can have loud obnoxious sex and no one will hear you scream out my name all night long!"
Danny knelt up and took off his button down shirt. He unbuttoned his jeans and swung around so he was sitting on the sleeping bag and looking wanton and needy for Steve. Steve's eyes glazed over as he took off his shirt and slid his board shorts down his long legs revealing he had gone and done it again. "Commando, Steven? Again? What have I told you about making me guess whether you have boxers on or not?
Steve pulled at the ankles of Danny's jeans and said, "Danny, you need to wear jeans more often. They make your butt look so hot, I just want to slid my hands inside to feel your skin and squeeze saying 'You are MINE'." When Danny lifted his hips, Steve gave a firmer tug and got the jeans down his legs and off his body.
Danny grinned and said, "I still seem to have my boxers on. Whatcha gonna do about that, McGarrett?"
Steve growled and slid into the sleeping bag. When he was comfortable, he sighed, "You are going to take those boxers off and you are going to let me make mad, crazy, loud love to you all night long underneath this really booming rainstorm and then wake up with you in my arms tomorrow and maybe, just maybe, we can do it all over again in the morning before we zip into work, alright, Danno?"
"Just promise me you'll respect me in the morning, Steve and I will let you do anything you want me to tonight!" as Danny slid off his boxers and settled into Steve's embrace, snuggled into his hard chest and kissed the spot over his heart.
Danny and Steve pulled the sleeping bag over their bodies and into the warmth that their two bodies made in the tent. Danny was on top of Steve and wrapped his arms around his SEAL. "Am I too much for you tonight, Steven?"
Steve just smiled. "Danno, I love the feel of your body on mine. No, not too much. But, I could make you feel so much better if you let me touch you. Right. About. There." He slid his hands down Danny's body to his butt and squeezed just tight enough to get a breathy moan out of his Jersey Man.
Danny felt a drip on his shoulder. "Thought this was a water proof tent, McGarrett? Seems we have a leak, I think."
Steve smiled as he had reached into the strawberry and whipped cream ice bowl and pulled a piece of ice out and dripped it on Danny's skin to try to get a bit of a rant out his lover. "It's just ice, Danno. I think we could hit the strawberries and whipped cream and have a bit of fun before we hunker down for sleep." At Danny's scowl, Steve angled up into a sitting position and said, "Danny? I am sorry for dripping water on you. Yes, the tent is safe and water tight. I would never put you in a risky situation, I swear. I thought strawberries and cream would be fun. And, Kono and Adam put some Longboards and a nice bottle of champagne on ice for us just outside the tent. We can relax and be safe here. I want to make this a special night for you."
Laughing, Danny said, "Hey, SuperSeal, I am OK with all of your romance stuff. I really thought we had a leak and I was worried about being wet and you trying to woo me. You kind of know you don't have to woo me, I am yours forever, silly."
They made slow and easy love to each other and Danny snuggled into Steve's chest. "You are my only love, you know. No one else gets me the way you do, no one could ever love me like you do. Ti adoro, Steven."
Mary, Kono and Grace organized a baby shower for Danny and Steve because Kono knew the boys would be clueless in that aspect of having a baby much less triplets. Kono made a cake with two blue booties and one pink one for the kids (chocolate, of course-Steve's favorite flavor). Danny and Steve walked into Chin's backyard and were surprised to see all of the decorations and hear "Surprise!" from their ohana. There was a rented 60 inch flatscreen television hooked up to a laptop accessing Skype which had Danny's sisters, Mum and Dad on it so they could be there, too.
Danny was very emotional as he saw his parents and siblings. Kono made sure their gifts for the babies arrived in time for the party and were on the table in full view of the cameras. Debbie was sitting off to one side on a lounge chair full of pillows supporting her back and her legs were elevated.
"Surprise, Boss! Surprise, Danny! All of your ohana wanted to give you a grand baby shower for the new Baby 5-0s! Hope you aren't mad at us for the white lie we told to get you here."
Danny laughed and said, "Grace, you're grounded! When the babies come you are on diaper duty with Auntie Kono, Auntie Mary, and Uncle Chin for the first month!"
Steve laughed and wrapped his arms around Danny. "Grace, we have a rule about white lies. I can't use em anymore and neither can you. Last time was bad enough, remember?"
Grace laughed and said, "I didn't lie, Danno. Auntie Kono did! She used me and Uncle Chin and Auntie Mary to get you and Daddy and Auntie Debbie here. She is the mistress of all things party in this ohana, you know that, Danno!"
"OK, Grace, Chin and Mary are off the hook. Kono is grounded!" Danny laughed as he reached out and snagged Kono, hugging her and whispering, "Thank you for the incredible party, Rookie!"
Danny and Steve had a mountain of gifts to unwrap so, after eating dinner and getting settled they began. Maggie and Angie sent them a mountain of coveralls, onesie shirts both long sleeved and short sleeved, and thirty pairs of baby socks. Mum and Dad sent a triplet stroller in a nice shade of lime green with lavender trimming and lavender wheels. Chin gave them onesies with Baby 5-0 on each of them-two red and one blue. Mary gave Danny and Steve a diaper bag and two red sippy cups and one blue one for the babies. Kono gave them three baby backpacks to carry them around in-one for Danny, one for Steve and one for Grace. Grace gave Danny and Steve 30 gift certificates for free babysitting for the triplets. Danny was impressed with how well she watched Joan for Mary and thought that she could handle the babies with one of the adult members of the ohana to help her. Debbie gave them three baby books and book of baby names to look over as they had yet to decide on names for the impending arrivals. Kamekona gave them baby onesies with his company logo on them in red and blue (apparently the babies' colors-news to Danny and Steve).
Later on after they had said good night to the New Jersey family and the ohana gathered for the shower, Danny showered and settled into bed while Steve locked up the house and grabbed one last piece of chocolate cake for each of them (it really was his favorite flavor). He hit the showers and then, cake plates in hand, made his way to bed with Danny. He found his Danno pouring over the baby name book with a pen and a notebook writing down names he liked. He had magnifier glasses on and he looked adorable in Steve's mind-sexy even. He set the plates on the bed side table and snuggled up to Danny, looking over his shoulder at his work so far.
"Danno, how's the list going so far?"
Danny sighed as Steve snuggled into him. He wrapped an arm around his ex-SEAL and pulled him closer to his body. "Steve, there are so many names but, you just can't put any two names together. They have to fit nice. This is for the boys and our little girl. We can't give them names that they can get picked on for in school. I want you to help me with this. They are your kids as much as they are mine, Steven. For example, I would love to name one of our boys after his daddy, so you can have a junior or a second. Do you like that idea?"
"I like that idea, Danno. That is the nicest thing you have ever thought of doing for me. But, what about the other little guy? I want him to be named after you somehow. What about Daniel Michael McGarrett after you and Dad?"
Danny kissed Steve softly on the lips, flicking his tongue into Steve's mouth in a sweeping caress. "That is the boys taken care of. What about our little princessa now? I have a list of names but nothing is popping for me. Any ideas?"
Steve gave it some serious thought. "Hey! I have it! Deborah Rose McGarrett. Deborah for your sister and my aunt and Rose for our ancestor. What about that?"
"I'd like to run that by Debbie first and see what she thinks but I like it, Steve. Hang on a second." Danny texted Debbie and asked her opinion of the name. Debbie replied as long as they called her Rosie she was fine with the name. Danny and Steve agreed to this and they had the names for their kids.
