I told you guys these would become out of order. And how come no one reviewed my Rings of Disaster chapter? Did you guys not enjoy it? :(

Steve was at the bar getting a round of beers when the blonde walked up to him. At first he thought that she was just trying to squeeze in through the throng of people to get to the bar, but every time he tried to move over to give her room, she followed him. It got to the point where she was practically in his lap before she talked.

"And who might you be," asked the blonde, batting her eyelashes at Steve.

"Steve McGarrett," said Steve briskly before turning back toward the bar.

He had no interest in the woman with the bottle blonde hair and the fake tan. Unfortunately she didn't let his brisk ton get to her.

"The name's Danielle. Care to buy me a drink," asked Danielle with her best flirty smile.

If she was lucky she could get a couple drinks out of this hunk before getting him into her bed for some fun. Steve looked at her and wanted to say no, but he had been raised with manners.

"What would you like," asked Steve, plastering on a fake smile.

"A martini please. Extra dirty," whispered Danielle as she ran her hand along Steve's arm.

Steve subtly moved his arm out of her reach and ordered the drink. The bartender brought over the beers and the martini, smiling as someone else tried to avoid the not so subtle advances of the regular Danielle.

"Here you go," said Steve as he passed Danielle the martini.

He turned to grab the beers and to head back to the table when Danielle grabbed his arm.

"Where you goin handsome," asked Danielle with a big smile.

Steve was about to tell her that he was heading back to his friends, but she wasn't letting him get a word in edgewise.

"Keep me company for a while handsome. Who knows maybe we hit things off," purred Danielle.

Steve tried to hold in a groan. He knew this was going to happen. He looked back over to the table and saw Allie and Trevor deep in conversation with each other. Both had their heads bent over a camera and Steve had no doubt they were looking at pictures of him and Vicki and trying to decide which ones to give to her father to ensure Steve's untimely demise. It was at the thought of Vicki that he realized she no longer was at the table. He looked around and finally spotted her playing pool with some guy. Steve tried to keep in his growl as the guy put his hands over Vicki's to show her how to hit the balls. Steve had it on very good authority, aka Danny, that Vicki knew how to play pool, and she was very good at it. The guy moved to lean over Vicki's back to help her and Steve felt some satisfaction when Vicki's pool cue 'accidentally' got rammed into the guy's stomach as Vicki was shooting. She turned around and looked to be apologizing profusely. Any onlooker would think she was sincere. Anyone who knew Vicki would know that she was being insincere.

"And after that I thought maybe we could go back to my place."

Steve zoned back in and realized that Danielle had just planned the rest of their evening. Which included her place. Steve knew there was no way he was going anywhere near this woman's place. So he subtly pulled out his cell phone and texted Vicki.

Vicki apologized to Jack as she heard her phone buzzing. She pulled it out of her purse and saw that she got a text message from Steve.

*Save me this woman is inviting me back to her place.*

Vicki looked up and searched the bar for Steve. She finally spotted him right next to the actual bar, a bottle blonde hanging on his arm. Vicki quickly suppressed her jealousy at the sight, after all, Steve was trying to get away from this woman. Vicki quickly wrote a reply and sent it off.

*So say sorry, but no thanks and walk away.*

Steve kept in his groan at Vicki's unhelpful suggestion.

*I tried. She didn't take the hint.*

Vicki held in her snort of laughter.

*So what do you want me to do?*

*You owe me two favors.*

Vicki almost groaned when she read the message. She had been enjoying her time with Jack and although he was a bit handsy he had been fun to talk and flirt with. Unfortunately, Steve was her friend and she had promised to help him as he helped her. So, Vicki excused herself from Jack's company and sauntered over to the bar. She saw the look of relief on Steve's face when he spotted her and Vicki couldn't help the butterflies in her stomach at the small grin that formed on his face.

"Hey babe what happened to you," asked Vicki as she wrapped her arm around Steve's waist.

"Excuse me, but he's mine honey," said Danielle as she gave a threatening grin to Vicki.

Vicki just gave her, her brightest smile.

"Last time I checked he was my fiance," said Vicki with an adoring look for Steve.

Steve just about melted right there at the look and the idea of her possessing him. Even if it was all a rouse.

"He didn't mention anything about a fiance and I don't see a ring," pointed out Danielle.

"Yeah, well, we don't advertise," said Vicki with her own threatening grin for Danielle.

Danielle realized this was not a fight she was going to win.

"My mistake," said Danielle looking slightly disappointed and put out.

"No worries. If you want there is a lonely man over by the pool table. His name is Jack," said Vicki with a grin.

A gleam came to Danielle's eyes as she tilted her head in acknowledgement and headed off to the pool table with her martini.

"You so owe me," said Vicki when Danielle was out of ear shot.

"Here," said Steve as he passed a beer over to Vicki.

"No I mean you seriously owe me. Jack was cute and attentive," said Vicki with a pout as she looked to see Danielle chatting Jack up.

"He was handsy," said Steve with a growl.

"A little, but not overly so," said Vicki with a glance to Steve.

"Are you sure about that," said Steve as he pointed his beer toward the pool table.

Vicki turned in time to see Jack grab a handful of Danielle's ass and squeeze.

"Asshole," was all Vicki said as she turned away and headed back to their table.

Steve followed with the three other beers and a chuckle. He and Vicki had saved each other from a couple of gropers and he had gotten Vicki to call him her fiance in the end. All that would make this night perfect was if it was actually true lamented Steve as he sat down at the table and rejoined reality.

Review dearies or I shall withhold more of these one-shots and the ones that are based in the future (when I write them).
