I have a short story that has been published please look at the end of story for info.
Chapter Three
"It's good to see you Liam, what are you doing here?" Danny moved away from the door and invited the other man in.
"Well, I heard you were coming over, and I offered to be the welcome wagon." Liam smiled again as his eyes skimmed down Danny's body. "You're looking fantastic, better than I remember. Hawaii must be good for you, maybe I should move out there."
Danny pasted on a smile. "Well Hawaii has its charms." The smile vanished as soon as he said that, an image of Steve came to his mind walking out of the water in low-hung shorts, then he saw Grace smiling up at him and finally there was Kono, Chin and Steve. In Steve's arms, he was holding Grace as they all laughed around the bar-b-que.
"Danny, Danny are you ok?" Liam watched him closely.
Danny shook his head. "Sorry, yes I'm fine and thank you for the welcome."
"While you are here maybe we can go out for a bite or something." Liam shrugged his shoulders and ducked his head. Danny couldn't help but chuckle seeing that the young rookie was still in there.
"I don't think that's going to be a good idea. I'm not going to be here long enough." Danny watched as Liam opened his mouth to speak again. He held up his hand. "Can we not do this? I'm tired I miss my daughter, my friends and …." Danny stopped suddenly.
Liam knew at that point there was someone he cared for in Hawaii, but he wasn't going to give up. He had waited for Detective Daniel Williams this long, and now he was here in Jersey this could be his chance to win over the other man.
"Ok I'll see you later." He handed a card over to Danny. "My contact number, if you need me for anything, please call."
Danny nodded and walked Liam to the door. He sighed and rested against it as soon as Liam had gone. "I don't need this." He muttered to himself.

Steve stared down at his watch and calculated out the time. He was sure Danny would have settled in by now.
He turned and stared at the phone.
"Damn in it." He muttered and picked up the phone. "Hey, it's Steve. Just making sure you got there ok. A visitor, who…Oh ok." Steve looks up as he sees Kono waving at him. "Uhhh Kono needs me; no of course I'm not going to cause any damage. What, I promise Danny. Don't you trust me?" He said with a smirk and then pulled the phone away as Danny had hung up on him.
Steve stood and walked over to the door and before he could say anything he heard a loud squeal.
"Uncle Steve." Grace ran at him.
Steve went down to his knees and hugged her. "I was just talking to Danno." He said with a smile.
"We did too. What did you talk about?" Grace said as they walked over to the seats and sat down.
"Well I made sure he arrived safely. He told my about a visitor…"
"Oh yeah Liam." Grace nodded with authority.
"Liam?" Steve sent a questioning look to Rachel who laughed.
"Liam was a rookie who had the biggest crush on Daniel. It was so funny. I have heard he has changed a lot since then though." She said thoughtfully but still watching Steve carefully.
Chin and Kono gave each other worrying looks they didn't like how this sounded.
"What do you mean changed?" Steve asked extremely carefully.
Rachel smirks slightly, she hates the fact that neither Daniel nor Steven will do anything about what is obviously going on between them. "Well, I still have friends there, and they said he bulked out, got taller and much more attractive. I won't repeat what else they said as they started to act like teenage girls with a crush, honestly at their age."
Kono chuckled. "Well when you see a hottie it doesn't matter the age."
Rachel smiled at her. "Yes, I guess you're right. Anyway, it seems as if Liam still has a thing for Daniel. You never know maybe he'll get lucky. We must go, Grace wanted to pop in and say hello."
"We are always glad to see you Gracie and you, of course, Mrs Edwards." Chin said with a grin.
"Please it is Rachel." She watched as Chin nodded in agreement.
"Bye Uncle Chin, Auntie Kono, bye Uncle Steve I can't wait to come back to your beach." Grace waved as she left.
"We'll sort it out when Danno gets back." Steve waited until they had vanished out of sight when he turned to his two friends. "Liam." He spat out and turned back to his office.
"Well, this is going to be a nightmare until Danny gets back here, alone and untouched." Kono mumbled.
Chin stood there nodding in agreement.

"Hey mom." Danny called out as he walked into the house.
An elderly woman walked out from the kitchen wiping her hands on a towel. "Danny, I thought you weren't coming around until tomorrow."
Danny walked over and hugged her. "Just thought I'd pop in and say hi. I have to head down to the station to get some files. Where's dad?"
"He's out with some friends." She smiled at her eldest son.
"Have you heard from Matty?" Danny whispered as he lowered his eyes.
"No, no I haven't." She snapped.
"I'm sorry."
"What on earth are you sorry for Daniel?" She paused, reaching over she raised his head, so he was looking at her. "Matthew is an adult; he knew what he was doing. Whatever decision you would have made, you would still feel guilty. It's because you are a good man Daniel Williams and one I am tremendously proud of."

Danny smiled as he left the house. Talking to his mother about Matty was something he had to do. He was glad it was just the two of them.
"Danny." Sarah, his mother called out.
Danny turned to take a step towards her.

The gun was lined up perfectly. The trigger was gently squeezed as the bullet left and headed straight for its target.

Danny lay on the floor bleeding, his mother standing on the door step screaming.
