"You know that you don't have to do that Steve? I do have a dishwasher." Emma told Steve as she took a sip of her wine as she sat on the kitchen counter and watched as he washed up the dishes from their late night dinner, despite her telling them that he could just leave the dishes for her to do later considering his arm was still in his cast but Steve insisted on doing it. So she chose not to argue with him about it, if he wanted to clean up then she'd let him.

"I want to. You made us this great dinner and I wanted to do something to show my appreciation other than show up with some flowers and a bottle of wine considering I still owe you for that date I had to bail on. So I'll make you dinner at my place, this weekend…" Steve said with a quiet laugh as he continued to do the washing up in the dark with only the dimmed lights and the candles in the background.

"That's sounds lovely, the wine is splendid and the orchids are gorgeous, thank for you them both…" Emma commented, she had never been given orchids as a gift before and so she wasn't sure of what to make of it. So she made a note to herself to take Rachel and Cecile out to lunch sometime next week so she could talk to them about it considering Rachel was married and Cecile practically had the mind of a man. Emma knew that they'd both be thoroughly impressed at the fact that Steve seemed awfully domesticated with the fact that he could cook and was willing to clean. Must be because of his background in the navy. "So what have you been up to these last couple of days? Because I know you Steve and there is no way a fracture would stop you from going into work."

"The usual, catching criminals and listening to your brother complain about whatever it is he thinks I'm doing wrong or what new thing is annoying him about Hawaii… What about you Em? Looking forward to going back to work tomorrow." Steve replied.

"Yes I am. As much as I love staying at home all day being mommy I really want to get back to work my days feel incomplete if I'm not filling out some kind of motion or preparing a brief or deposition. And hearing myself say that makes me sound like a complete workaholic." Emma noted with mild bemusement.

"No it doesn't. You're the epitome of the modern woman; beautiful, smart, raising a child whilst having a career. There is noting more sexier…" Steve said as he finished doing the washing up and dried his hands before making his way over to where Emma and his glass of wine was sitting.

Emma found herself looking at Steve for the longest time, which was hard not too as the man pretty damn handsome and that was without the whole navy background before she knew it, she had opened her big fat mouth and ruined whatever romantic moment that they were having. "Danny knows about us, doesn't he? ...Oh my god! I have no idea where that come from Steve, it just came out…"

Steve took the wine glass out of Emma's hand and placed it back on the counter as he stood between her legs before placing his hands on his waist. "Is it safe to say that somebody has had a bit too much wine to drink tonight?"

"Yeah, that wouldn't be too much of a stretch." Emma said as she could feel her face getting increasingly warmer and warmer, which only meant one thing. Her face was becoming red because of how embarrassed she was over the situation. She desperately wanted to be swallowed by a black hole or have the ground swallow her whole at this precise moment. How on earth did she manage to get herself into these situations when she was around Steve? It was completely beyond Emma's comprehension.

"Your right, Danno does know about us." Steve revealed much to Emma's displeasure and she couldn't help but lean her forehead against Steve's and groan in a weary manner. "He found out when we were at the hospital..."

"I'm guessing he didn't exactly take the news well?" Emma questioned as she imagined various scenarios in her head of her brother reacting to the news that she was dating his partner. His head had probably exploded at the news and Emma was going to have to do something about her brother despite the fact that the last thing she wanted to do was talk to Danny about her relationship with Steve.

"Not exactly. I didn't tell him per say, he kind of just put the pieces together and figured it out and he's really mad with me because he told me and I quote 'my sister is off limits to you' and now I am dating her. So Danno's not much of a happy camper." Steve replied with a small laugh.

"–Wait? Danny told you not to get involved with me? That's very interesting, let me guess? You were just so enthralled with me that you just had to disregarded what Danny told you…" Emma said as she lifted her head up in interest at this news. She couldn't exactly believe what she was hearing; her brother had actually warned Steve off her like she was some kind of procession. Her and Daniel were going to need a conversation about who she could and could not date and how he had no control over it.

"Uh huh, right again Ms. Williams…" Steve said with small laugh as he gently brushed Emma's waist with his thumb. "Your just so mesmerizing, charming and beautiful, that it didn't matter what Danny said."

"You flatter me way too much Commander McGarett but I'll talk to Danny, i'll get him to ease up on the whole intimidating big brother act, um… he's probably just worrying a bit to much." Emma replied, finding it hard to string a coherent sentence together when Steve was looking at her the way he currently was.

"Don't worry Em, I can take care of myself." Steve murmured as he stroked Emma's cheek before pressing light butterfly kissed down her jaw line.

"I'm fully aware of that Steve, but Danny is my big brother and he's being really annoying and well… um…" Emma began before trailing off, damn Steve McGarrett and those blue eyes of his and that red wine he had brought over with him! It was making her feel all different kinds of funny. "You made me forget my point…"

"I can see that, it's rather adorable..." Steve said as pulled away from Emma to laugh at her reaction before kissing her again this time on the lips, only stopping when Emma grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him closer before slowly starting to undo the buttons on shirt. "Are you sure about this?"

Emma was sure about many things; the first that her brother had lost his god damn mind, the second was that she had the most adorable child in the world, thirdly the Yankee's were the greatest baseball team ever. And as her brown eyes looked at Steve's blue eyes, she knew she was sure about this. "Yes."
