A/N: Hello Again!

Can I just say, I think this fandom has the best fans? You guys are amazing. Thank you so much for all the reviews and the alerts and just the interest people have shown in Danny and his mom. I like his mom! So does Steve.

Here is the cargument that I promised. I hope it's alright. As I reread it I wasn't too sure about it, but its growing on me now.

As always, I don't own anything but I wish I did.

Stay tuned for an appearance from Jenna (cause I like her and I hope they develop her more in season two.) I think she's fun and light hearted and so geeky and would get along great with Max. That's just my opinion. (Oh the geek love!) Maybe I should write that…. what do you think?

Leave me a comment if you can, or just PM. I like those too!

Chapter 2: Confusion

Steve and Danny fell into the Camaro and just sat in silence before Steve turned over the ignition and pulled the car out of its parking spot. Danny rubbed his eyes, shook his head and just sighed.

"What just happened?" Steve asked as they hit the main road and headed into the center of the city.

"You just accidently met my parents," Danny sighed, "I was planning to ease you, and Kono and Chin, into it, but there really isn't any planning with you and you just fuckin showed up."

"How could you keep something like this from us?" Steve asked angrily.

"Oh my god, seriously, you just met my mother and you're asking me that?" Danny yelled throwing his hands into the air. "I had planned to introduce you, I didn't know they were coming until they made that decision and sometimes, most of the time, my mom is a psychopath with a heart of gold. Are we really going to have this fight, because I'm about ready to hang myself already?"

"I just don't see why you wouldn't let us all help you prepare for this," Steve stated.

"I shouldn't need you to help me prepare for a visit from my mother." Danny hissed.

"Was your mom serious about dinner?" Steve asked in confusion after a few moment of letting Danny calm down.

"If you don't want frantic phone calls on whether or not you're dead, I'd make it to the dinner by 6:45pm." Danny answered.

"Ok…was she expecting me to be there all along?" he asked.

"Yes, she was under the impression that I was bringing the whole team to dinner to meet them. I was going to call you and just have you, and Kono and Chin, be there at the hotel, debrief and then head into the inferno." Danny stated sarcastically, "She thinks you knew that she was coming and that you're all just to busy to meet them at the air port."

"But we weren't so why didn't…" Steve asked argumentatively.

"Don't even ask why I didn't tell you they were coming," Danny stated shaking his finger at Steve, "I just don't even want to have that argument right now." He added and rubbed at his eyes.

"I think I know why," Steve practically laughed, "they seem great though, really, I wish I had your mom. I wish my family was still a part of my life."

"Give her a couple of days and you'll want to jump off a bridge." Danny sighed.

"How long have they been here?" Steve asked as they pulled off the city streets and onto the highway.

"They arrived yesterday at 2. I brought Grace to them right after I picked her up from school and I'm already ready to disappear into the jungle," Danny stated, "they showed up at my apartment at 6am and I never gave them the address. I knewOahuwasn't a huge island, but I thought it was big enough that my parents wouldn't be able to find me that easily. How the hell did they find me?"

Steve couldn't help but laugh.

"Last night they were determined to see everything, after being on a plane or in airports for 16 plus hours. I couldn't talk my mom down from it. She's insane." Danny sighed. "We went to the office, the office, at 11pm because mom had to see where I worked; she wanted to see King Kamehameha I. I hadn't even noticed that statue!"

"Has she ever been toHawaii?" Steve asked.

"Never left the Jersey shore," Danny stated, "except to go toItaly."

"She seems nice, so does your dad," Steve said smiling.

"Oh my dad is great, calm, collected, he balances out my mom." Danny stated.

"You look like your dad, but you act like your mom," Steve stated.

"WHAT!"

"The way you argue, your mind set and all your mannerisms are your mother," Steve smiled.

"You met her for twenty minutes and you have the audacity to judge her?" Danny asked angrily, "and me at the same time. You couldn't be more wrong, and that's my mom you're talking about!"

"I know, I meant it as a compliment," Steve sighed.

"Telling me I'm as crazy as that woman is not a compliment Steve," Danny yelled, "I am not as nagging or as crazy when it comes to the little things. I don't flail my arms and I don't guilt people into crap they don't want to do and I absolutely don't fuss like she fusses!"

"Are you listening to yourself, while you flail your arms and fuss over this minute compliment that I just gave after having met your mom and got a really good first impression of her?" Steve asked with a laugh. "I really liked both of your parents Danny, and now I know where you get it from. You are just like them and it's refreshing. I'm envious, I'll admit it, and damn I wish I could be in your shoes right now."

"Just shut up Steve!" Danny hissed, crossed his arms over his chest and fell silent.

"Now you're pouting like Grace," Steve laughed.

Danny glared across the car at his partner.

"Man if looks could kill, Danno."

"Alright, what's so important about this case; so very important that you had to rescue me from another day with my mom and dad?" Danny asked after several moments of massaging his temples and grumbling under his breath to himself.

"We have threats of a terroristic nature against the Governor. Two letters arrived at the governor's mansion, one yesterday and one early this morning." Steve explained. "They don't specify what kind of act of terrorism, but they are angry, vengeful and adamant that they have it out for Jameson."

"Threatening what?" Danny asked.

"Threatening that in one week, at the governor's ball, the governor and hundreds of her supporters will get the surprise of their lives." Steve stated as he made air quote with both hands. "They will 'make them pay for the injustices against the people ofHawaii,' and that is what we have to go on."

"So we have until Friday…"

"Friday the thirteenth," Steve interrupted.

Danny rolled his eyes, "alright Freddie, so we have until Friday or this lunatic will...crash the party?" Danny asked making explosion gestures with both hands.

"Pretty much," Steve laughed.

"And that's all we have to go on?" Danny asked.

"As of right now, yes."

"I can see why you need me so badly." Danny sighed.

"I'm sorry to take you away from your parents, I know you miss them," Steve said apologetically as he kept his eyes trained on the road.

"Oh, yeah you're really sorry," Danny laughed, "next week you'll be sorry to take me away from Grace and the week after that it will be from surfing, oh wait no that was last weekend."

"No rest for the weary, Danny," Steve smiled.

"One thing is for sure; I'll be happy when they go back to the mainland and I have oceans between us." Danny sighed. "then I can go back to missing them and not being nagged and assaulted with every last little complaint or worry my mother good for something, if only putting distance between people."

"You love it here," Steve laughed.

"If it keeps me away from my mother, there is something to like," Danny stated and the fell silent once again.
