Chapter 13
Steve was sitting on the couch, eager to start his Halloween evening with Danny and Grace when he heard someone rang the doorbell, so he got up and opened the door and fell on Catherine on his doorstep:
S-Cath? What are you doing here?
Ca-I need to talk to you about your mother, I found some information about her past as Shelburne, do you have a minute
S-Oh come in then
Ca- Thanks
Catherine then went in and noticed that the entire sitting room was filled with Halloween's decorations such as skulls, plastic spiders and other and there was also a huge bowl of candy on the coffee table:
It-Where is Danny?
S-He left to pick up Grace he will be here in a minute
Ca-Oh
S-So what did you find?
Ca-Some files on her actions
S-Great shows me
When the brunette reached the records to the former Navy SEAL, she heard a noise upstairs and asked:
Ca-Is someone is up there?
S-Yes it is Kamekona, he is preparing his costume for Halloween
Ca-Oh
So they started flipping through folders in search of any clues when Danny returned home crestfallen. Steve noticed it and asked:
S-What's wrong babe?
D-Grace dumped me for Halloween, she said she will go with a friend, do you realize? She doesn't even want to spend Halloween with me anymore
S-Oh Danny, you know she's growing up it is normal it has nothing to do with you, you know she loves you
D-Do you want my death or what? It was our tradition, our trick and tread. To go ringing to the doors of the neighborhood and collect a ton of candy and now she no longer wants to do it with me but what do you want me to answer when she told me'' Hey Daddy do you mind if I do Halloween with friends instead?'' Tell her no, you gotta go do it with your father?
S-Danny, she did not want to hurt she may just want to do it with her friends
D-Yeah it starts with this, soon it will be'' Hey Danno do you mind if I do not spend Christmas with you?'' It's all my fault I left my job gain the upper hand on her, Rachel was right and...
Steve silenced him with a kiss and said:
S-Listen to me carefully Danno, none of this is your fault, your daughter loves you and you know it and I think she will never abandon you then stop messing up your head with that ok?
Danny was so upset he did not notice Catherine behind Steve and when he saw her he said:
D-Hi
Ca-Hi, sorry for your daughter
D- You know it's hard for me to believe that you are sorry for me
Ca-Listens Danny, I want to apologize for all I have said to you, frankly I should not have and now you're with Steve and you'll have a baby together and I have to get used to this idea, it going to be hard but I will. So are we friends?
Catherine held out her hand to Danny and the blond one hesitated a moment before shaking her saying:
D-Ok if you can make an effort I will too, but if you ever lay one of your hands on my boyfriend I'll break your teeth is that clear?
Ca- Crystal clear I think I should go, I leave you too good evening
S-Goodbye Cath
Catherine then went and walked to her car, once inside she said with a smile:
It-For a detective you are pretty naive Danny, get ready to suffer
Catherine then went home trying to concoct a plan to make Danny suffer.
From their side, Steve tried to calm down Danny who was moving in all the directions:
D-I should had expecting this, at changing my plans too much, to tell her that I could not see her because I was on a case, I thought that with the 5-0 I could see her more often but no. I should expect that everything explodes in my face that had to happen one day or another
Steve did not have time to answer that Kamekona was coming down the stairs in his disguise of Navy SEAL and asked:
Ka-So how do I look?
S-It suits you very well, you can become part of a team of SEAL
Ka-Thank you, Hey I know you said no grenades or weapons, but I appear more credible if...
S-No, it is out of the question that I pass grenades to you!
Ka- Ok well, Danny why are you alone I thought that you picked up Grace Face
D-She deserted me for Halloween
Ka-Oh don't worry brah, she is in the age soon it'll be outing, boy...
D-Do you hate me? You all want me dead or what? You want me to die right! It is out of the question to address the issue of boys before she is at least fifty years!
Ka-Well I should go and thank you for the costume
Kamekona then left leaving only Steve and Danny, the brown one walked to the couch and sat next to Danny and the detective put his head on the chest of Steve, he spoke:
S-Danny stop worrying, you do your best with Grace I see it every day and I know how much she loves you, you are her father, her Danno and that's not going to change I can swear to you so stop worrying about that ok?
D-You know that I will always worrying myself for my daughter, it's my baby girl and I want her to feel good with me, I just want her happy
S-I know babe, but I must tell you that she's ten years old, she wants to do like the grow up people as well
D-It's true you're right, you know sometimes I would like to keep Grace How she is now, little and beautiful
S-I do not think this is possible
D-You were not supposed to comfort me?
Steve laughed and kissed his blond who nestled his head against the neck of the ex-Navy SEAL who said:
S-You know I have my own Halloween tradition?
D-Oh and can I know what it is exactly?
S-When I was in nine grade, I bought ''Child Play'' with Jenny Feldman and since that day I watch this movie every Halloween and as Grace is not there we can do my tradition, when do you say about that?
D-That I do not have the choice
S-I'll make some popcorn and bring drinks too
D-brought me an ice cream pot too please
Steve looked at Danny with big eyes:
D-Do not make that face please, my daughter left me for Halloween and I'm pregnant so Danno is hungry and if Daddy Steve doesn't satisfied him he will live another 4 months of hell
S-Ice cream, I got it
Steve then went to grab a pot of ice cream in the freezer and went to put the popcorn in a large bowl, he also took drinks in the fridge (a beer for himself and a non-alcoholic beer for Danny). Once all the stuff put on the coffee table, the brown one tried to find the DVD and once he found it he put it in and sat down on the couch next to Danny and grabbed the bowl of popcorn while waiting for the start the film, he chuckled when Danny swallowed almost half the pot of ice cream, so he said:
S-I'm not against the fact that you feed our child but if you intend to make him or her diabetic keep going
D-Haha very funny Superseal shut up and watch the movie even if it is the umpteenth time you see it
Steve then paused and began eating popcorn enjoying the movie he watched.
After an hour of the film, Steve yawned and moved his arm to Danny so the blonde one laughed about this movement:
D-Seriously Steve, what are you doing here? The yawn maneuver? We're not in high school anymore you know
S-I'm not allowed to hug my boyfriend?
D- Yes but this was hilarious
Steve then hugged him and Danny put his head on the shoulder of the brown one then suddenly he began to jump when he began to watch the movie again and it was the turn of the ex-Navy SEAL to laugh at the stupor of the blond detective:
S-Are you scared?
D-No, for your information I've seen this movie but every time I see this scene it startled me because I don't get used to it but this is for sure that for you this film don't have any effect on you because you know it by heart
Steve did not answer to that and Danny immediately saw at the head of brown that...:
D-No! You have not watch the end right?
S- To be honest, no I haven't
D-But you said you saw this every Halloween night so how could you never see the end of ...
Danny immediately understood why Steve had never seen the end:
D-In fact you never see the end because you always jumped to the girl next to you right? You are a real Casanova!
S-Still am
And before Danny was able to say anything, Steve threw him underneath him to kiss him and the blonde says:
D-What are you doing? You'll never see the end of the film by doing that!
S-And? That is the tradition so why change?
D-Very funny but I have to say that you're right
So Danny pulled Steve to him to kiss him again but when Steve tried to unbutton Danny's shirt, the phone of the blond detective rang:
S-No, don't answer to it
D-Yes I have to answer to it if ever it is Grace
Danny then grabbed his phone and picked up with difficulty as Steve continued to kiss his neck:
D-Yeah? Yeah Chin, ok we're on our way
S-What's going on?
D-A car accident
S-People cannot wait five minutes before killing themselves?
D-Apparently not, well we gotta go
Steve groaned and two teammates left to the crime scene.
The case took them half the night over the morning because not only there was an accident but they also had found the body of a woman in a trash can. The autopsy revealed that the woman had been the victim of a ritual sacrifice so when the team looked for clues about Halloween's ritual sacrifices, Danny's phone rang, he saw that it was Rachel:
D-Yes?
R-Daniel, I need you to pick up Grace
D-Uh well, I'm on an case...
R-Once again you cannot fulfill your role as a father, do not be surprised if she didn't want to spend Halloween with you!
D-I know very well that all of this is my fault Rachel don't rubs salt in the wound please!
R-Well anyway you have to come and get her, I have something to do and no is not an answer you hear me!
And before Danny had the time to say something she hung up, he went to the tactile table he found the whole team and Catherine, Steve saw the expression on the face of his lover and asked him:
S-What's going on?
D-I have to get Grace but I cannot as we have a case
Before Steve was able to say something, Catherine said:
Ca-I can go get her, I have nothing to do there
Danny had no choice this time and said:
D-Ok I'll go and I'll leave her to you
No sooner said than done Danny ran up his daughter and placed her in the HQ with Catherine who offered her to eat something in a restaurant once there Grace took pancakes and began to eat thinking about the sad face of her father, she said to herself it was because they did not spend Halloween together, Catherine noticed that Grace was thoughtful and asked her:
Ca-Are you okay?
G-Yes, I was just thinking about Danno and how sad he looks
Ca-Oh, you know me when I was a little girl my dad was in the SEALs and I rarely saw him as it is normal to be sad but it's true that your father could take better care of you than to think all the time about his work and never think of his own daughter
G-Danno thinks about me and I know it, that's not why I'm thoughtful it is because I am sad because I left him at Halloween.
Ca-Well he had left you today as always
G-That's not true! He will never leave me, why are you so mean to my father, it is because he is with Steve right?
It-You're pretty smart for a ten year old girl
G-Put you in the head that Steve and Danno are in love and that no one will destroy their love even you!
Ca-Exactly they are so in love that your father does not think of you as they will have a baby!
Grace gap her mouth, her Danno wanted another child? Without talking to her about that?
Ca- You didn't know it right huh due to your head. And yeah your dear Danno as you like to call him is pregnant!
G-There's only women who can become pregnant, it is not possible
It-Here there are plants that can make men fall pregnant. So get ready to be replaced
G-I know that even if Danno has another child he will not replace me because my father has a huge heart and he loves me!
Ca-We will see but don't come crying when you'll be alone
Grace had tears in her eyes so she could not hold her words:
G-You just a bitch unable to understand what love is!
Ca-You don't have the right to talk to me like that!
G-Yes I have it because you insult my father and you make me feel bad!
Grace got up and ran outside to dry her tears. Moments later, Catherine took her back to HQ where Danny who was looking for information on the killer without saying a word. When Danny saw her with red eyes and sad face he ran to her and asked:
D-Monkey, what happens to you?
G-Don't blame me Danno, I'm sorry I shouldn't have done this
D-What? What did you do explain to me
G-I insulted Catherine
D-What? Why?
G-She said nasty things about you and she said you did not like me and you were going to replace me with the baby Uncle Steve and you are going to have
Danny could not believe it, he should have been wary of Catherine and the more she told Grace he was pregnant although it should have been him to do that, he took his daughter in his arms who was still sobbing:
D-Calm down Grace I do not blame you
G-It is true that you're gonna have a baby?
D-Yes...
G- With Uncle Steve?
D-Yes, but I want you to know that I will never replace you, you're my daughter and I love you very much, don't doubt about it
G- I know Danno and I love you too, I am also sorry for not spending Halloween with you.
D-It's okay Monkey it's not a big deal
G- To me it is, so tonight I want both of us to redo Halloween with Uncle Steve I already called Mom and she agrees
D-Okay
G-By the way I'm happy for you, I'll be a big sister again
Danny smiled and kissed the forehead of his daughter but when Catherine went into the HQ, the blonde's face changed and he said:
D-Hey you! If you ever hurt my daughter again I'll make you pay is that clear!
Ca- I don't know what you're talking about
D-Plus you try to impersonate her for a liar, you are crazier than I thought!
Catherine approached them and said:
Ca-You better not provoke me or it could be that the next case that 5-0 would treat will be the rediscovery of your dead body
Steve, Chin and Kono came behind and the ex-Navy SEAL said:
S-What is going on here?
Ca-It's Nothing, I was just leaving
Catherine then went and Steve could not help himself but see the frightened faces of Danny and Grace, he approached them and took them in his arms:
S-Tell me what happened Danny
D-She told Grace that I was pregnant and that I would take more care of the baby than her so Grace insulted her and then she just threatened to kill me
Steve felt a rage to Catherine for threatening the two people he loved most, so he said:
S-I will say a few words to her, she has done enough
D-No Babe you need her for information about your mother
S-She has crossed the line that I had placed in hurting and threatening you, she will regret it because no one has the right to attack my family!
So Danny could just nod about the decision to Steve, when everyone had calmed down Kono said:
K-Danny did you found something about the killer?
D-Yes his name is Seth Tilton and I also found his address and maybe we will find Lucas
Grace looked at his father and said:
G-Danno are you going to go?
D-Yes, I have no other choice
K-I'll stay with her do not worry
D-Thanks Kono
K-You're welcome
Steve and Danny then went towards the house of Seth Tilton leaving Kono and Grace alone in HQ, to lighten the mood the brunette asked the little girl:
K-So what do you want to do Gracie?
G-I want to go to a costume shop because I want to redo a Halloween party with Uncle Steve and Danno
K-Oh well, let's go my dear
They then went into town to get a costume for Halloween.
After they prevented Seth from making another ritual sacrifice, Steve and Danny returned to HQ and Danny chuckled:
D-This is really crazy that old woman like that was involved in the deadly delusions of her grand-son
S-It was to protect him, but it's true that it's crazy
D-Well leave me at HQ and returned to home Kono will take me home
S-Ok
Danny then entered the headquarters where he saw his Gracie make-up and dressed as a bee girl so he tenderly said:
D-You look beautiful Grace, the most beautiful of bees that I have ever seen
G-Thanks Danno, it's Aunt Kono who helped me to do my makeup
D-That's great you're ready? Here we go
G-Wait with Aunt Kono we took you a suit as well
Kono left her office with a red cape and handed it to Danny
D-Thanks
G-With that you could be a superhero
D-Thanks again Monkey and thanks to you too Kono, you deserve the nickname of World's Best Godmother
Kono looked at Danny and had a huge smile:
K-So that means ...
D-Yes, with Steve we talked and we decided that you can be the baby's godmother
She jumped into the arms of the blond detective thanking him:
K-I'm very happy thank you
D-You're welcome, so Grace can we go?
G-Yes you come Aunt Kono?
K-Yeah Gracie
Both therefore left to Steve and Danny's house where the former Navy SEAL was waiting them and when he saw Grace enter he said:
S-Well; Well look at this we have the visit of the queen of the hive, you're beautiful
G- Thanks Uncle Steve, it is to catch up Halloween
S-You are disguised but not me, I'll have to disguise remark Danny did not a disguise too
D-Yeah I have one, I'm a superhero he said pointing his cape
S-Which superhero?
D- The one with a red cape Steven, you know the one who makes the goofs like you talking
S-Well then what do you suggest Grace?
G-I brought the ''Notebook'' we could watch it
Steve winced when he heard the name of the movie but agreed to watch it so Grace and Danny went to lie on the couch, soon joined by Steve who sat next to Danny, the blonde asked:
D-I saw you wince when she told you the ''Notebook'', this film is that bad?
S-You're going to hate but for Grace I'm willing to sacrifice myself
Danny kissed Steve on the cheek and nestled his head on his shoulder and Grace began to approach herself against her father, and all shared a good time in family.
So ? What do you think ? Yeah Cath is a real bitch but it's how I see her, I love writting scene between Steve-Danny and Grace as a family ! :) see ya soon
