Emma sat with Steve on the couch in her office after having been surprised when she came back from court to find him waiting for her with lunch. It was a very unexpected but very sweet and welcoming surprise especially given the extremely long and difficult day that Emma was having. "You know Steve, this just the little pick me up I need before I have to go back to court."

"Tough day?"

"Very. The defense know that their case is weak so they are just going on the attack, tearing apart my witnesses and experts trying to create that little seed of reasonable doubt in the jurors mind and it's just been a nightmare to fix but luckily I'm fixing it and I pretty sure that the jury can see what the defense is trying to do." Emma replied with a shake of her head as continued to eat.

"Well I have faith in your abilities as prosecutor and no doubt the jury will see that you are presenting the true so whatever defense attorney it is, I'm sure they'll get their comeuppance when you win you the case and the criminal gets sent to jail." Steve assured Emma and it caused her to beam a bright and happy smile.

"Why thank you Steve, you are just be great today and I must say you have great timing... first lunch and then this little pep talk, I knew there was a reason I liked you other than your charming personality and handsome looks. I think I'll keep you around for a while longer." Emma replied as she took a sip of her drink. "But enough about me Steve, how about you? How's work going over at the big Five-0 headquarters?"

"Fine it's not like we're running low on criminals to catch but they are getting more stupider with each different case although things would be better if the beautiful deputy prosecutor Emma William was prosecuting our cases."

Emma laughed slowly as moved a piece of her air out of her face. "You know we can't do that Steve, it's a conflict of interest that is why I stay away from Five-0's cases despite the fact that only Cecile, Danny and Rachel know about us. Because if I did prosecute your cases and it came out it would cause a lot of questions and cases would be reviewed and some criminals could be put back on the street. I've seen it happen a few times and as an officer of the court I can't allow that happen."

"Fair point." Steve said in agreement.

"So how are you and Danny doing? Is he still giving you the silent treatment about us?" Emma asked as nonchalantly as possible as to not give away that she had spoken to Danny about her and Steve a few days ago.

"Getting there, he's not ignoring me anymore when it comes to you but he's been making it explicitly clear that I had better not do anything to hurt you otherwise he will in fact kill me and my cargo pants very slowly. He also keeps mentioning Harry because he doesn't think I understand that you are a mother to a small boy and he doesn't think I get how important he is to you and how I can't deal with small children." Steve revealed as he eat a couple of his fries. "I know you talked to him Em' about giving me a break…"

"Doesn't seem like it did you the world of good." Emma noted.

Steve couldn't help but smile. "I told you that I could handle Danny and whatever he threw at me, I got why he was mad at me Emma. You didn't have to do this."

"But I wanted to, Danny has given every single one of my boyfriends who he had ever met crap from the moment he's met them and I admit that some of them deserved it as I've dated some morons in my time. But you don't deserve this Steve, you're a good guy and Danny knows it. So he should be giving you a break…" Emma explained as she patted Steve's knee in a reassuring manner. "But with this whole Harry thing why don't you prove Danny wrong?

"How?"

"Take Harry for a weekend, Danny has a certain image of you and sometimes it's not in the best of light." Emma simply put as she stole one of Steve fries. "Danny mainly see's you mostly as the crazy navy guy in cargo pants but I know that you're more than that Steve. Your kind and caring amongst other things, as for this kids thing… you may not have a lot of experience with kids but I've seen you with both Grace and Harry, they both like you Steve and it's not hard to see why."

"As much as I like them, it does exactly change the fact that Danny is right." Steve said with a sigh.

Emma rolled her eyes. "No he's not. Look now that I've made it clear to Danny that I am fine and I'm not having a mental breakdown anytime in the near future now he's taken to worrying about my little bundle of sunshine. Harry is heavily lacking male role models, with George and Olly being dead, then Matt being on the run and my dad being back in Vegas. The only person he has is Danny, so I think maybe my brother wants to make it clear how important Harry is."

"You don't think I know that Em? I know how much Harry means to both you and Harry. I know that I'm not a parent like you and Danny but I like Harry, he's sweet kid and it's not hard to love him–" Steve demanded.

"Steve I know that. You don't have to explain it to me but your in my life now and that means your in Harry's too which I guess is what's with Danno being on your case all the time. So I want you to do this, Danny has Grace this weekend so you take Harry and prove to him that you can do this. Show him what I see and most importantly why Harry adores you…" Emma said as she linked her hand with Steve's and gave it a reassuring squeeze.

"Okay then, I'll do it."
