Disclaimer

The characters of Steve McGarrett and Danny Williams do not belong to me in any shape or form. I am merely using them for my own entertainment purposes

The character of Danni Richardson and Caitlin Richardson however do belong to me as does the character Francesco Hobbs so please do not use these characters without asking

I should also add that if a character is mentioned who you are not instantly aware of then that character belong to me as well

Author Note

Here's the next Snippet for you all.

As I previously mentioned I have a lot of saga written when it comes to the overall Danni saga so I figured the best way to put them up was in a snippet form rather than putting up millions of stories because there must be like over a hundred by now!

I'll put a little note by the saga so you will know which snippets belongs to which saga so hopefully it will becomes clearer. If you like a certain saga then let me know and I'll make sure I work more on it as well.

Nothing more to say except that I hope you all enjoy the stories!

I should also make a point that any time the surname Richardson is used in regards to Danielle it means that male Danny is in the story. In these stories Danni will be referred to as Danielle in the narrative instead of Danni.

It makes all the work I do on them worth it

Overall Summary

A glimpse into the McDanni world featuring lots of romance, drama, and gun fights, babies and a whole lot more. Based on the A/U Danni world.

Overall Romance

A hell of a lot but always with Steve and Danni ending up together…. It's better to look at the chapter romance to gather which one is which…

Other note

Nearly all the places I have stated are either made up or I've got from the internet so I'm sorry in advance if I get an address wrong or anything. My geography on Hawaii is very poor having never been there before!

Snippet Two

6th March 2011

Danielle Richardson looked around her making sure that she had everything which she needed for that evening before she slowly smiled. She thought that she was sorted; she had crisps, dips, chicken wings, pizza, coleslaw, potato salad and everything else which she might need for an evening at her house which consisted of watching the Ice Hockey playoffs until the early hours of the morning.

She knew that Danny Williams would be there at six thirty on the dot because he has said as much to her when she had extended the invitation to the 50 external and internal teams, to come to hers and watch the games with her but she had no idea whether anyone else would come, mainly because she hadn't had time to wait for answers, merely calling over her shoulder that she would either see them or she wouldn't. She had way too much food for just two but she thought it would be better to have too much then too little. Even if it did just end up being the two of them she could still send some of the food home with Danny so at least she would know that he would be well fed for the next few days.

She gathered her long blond hair up and plaited it to one side, securing it with the band she had round her wrist before she glanced down at herself with a smile. She was dressed in her brother's oversized hockey top which had their surname on the back, from the days he played on their school team. It was massive on her, allowing just a slither of her shorts to be exposed, the shoulder had fallen down revealing her bare shoulder and the strap of the black vest top she had beneath it.

Her daughters were currently with their father getting ready to enjoy their weekend with him so she was free to just sit back and actually enjoy herself for once.

She looked over her shoulder when the doorbell went off; smiling when a glance at her watch showed that it was six thirty on the dot. Danny was certainly keen. Shaking her head she made her way out of the living room and down the wall, breathing in the scent of roses from the vase on the side table before she headed towards the front door.

The flowers were still a mystery to her. She had been home about twenty minutes when there had been a knock on the door, she had opened it to find herself confronted with a flower delivery guy holding a selection of roses of all different colours so large that Danielle could barely see the guy round them. He had passed them to her, telling her they were already paid for and turned and gone. A search through them had revealed a card with nothing but three X's on it. She had wondered whether it had been Duncan who had sent them to her but considering the look on his face when he had seen the vases of them she doubted it. Someone had clearly spent a lot of money on them but she had absolutely no idea who it was.

Shaking her head she pushed the thought away from her head and opened the door, her eyes lighting up when she saw not only Danny on her doorstep there but Jack, Chin and Malia.

"Hey" She said happily "You came, come in" She offered stepping to the side and holding the door open so they could step into the hallway. She kissed them on the cheek in welcome before she glanced out of the door making sure no one else was out there before she closed it behind them. "You didn't have to bring anything with you" She said when she noticed that Danny was holding two bottles of expensive looking red wine, Jack two cases of Long board beer and Malia a glass container that was covered with foil.

"I know we didn't" Malia said "But I know how much you love my mushroom and pepper lasagne so I made some for you" She told Danielle, lifting the edge of the foil so Danielle could look in, she lent down and smelt it, making a pleased sound at the back of her throat.

"If you weren't happily in a relationship with Chin Malia then I would ask you out myself" She teased, "Come through to the living room" She told them, leading the way back into living room. "Sit wherever you want to just not in that corner" She said pointing to the one with the best view of the screen. "That little corner is mine." She told them before she looked at Jack. "You want to put the beers in the ice cooler?" She asked, pointing to the large box she had set up by the sofa on a towel.

"Jesus Blondie, you really have thought of pretty much everything" He said, moving to the ice cooler and opening it up, smiling up at her. "I see you've gone with the longboards option when it comes to the beers" he commented as he put the other ones in, grabbing three in his hands, keeping one for himself before passing the other two to Danny and Chin.

"This isn't my first Ice Hockey evening, it's just the first one which I've hosted in Hawaii" She answered him, taking the lasagne from Malia and placing it on the already crowded surface.

"Baby-girl you don't have a drink, what do you want?" Danny asked, looking up from taking the lid off his own bottle.

"A glass of wine would be pretty good right about now especially after the day we've had" She said, reaching up and rubbing the back of her neck tiredly.

"Well you earned it, you blew the case wide open for us with your little discovery" Danny said, "I know Steve was really pleased with you." He commented, blue eyes focusing on her face quickly as though he was looking for some reaction. Danielle kept her face fixed in a small smile with difficulty as she felt warmth move through her at the thought of Steve being pleased with her. "You got glasses and a bottle opener?" He asked.

"Yeah in the kitchen, I'll just get them" Danielle said with a nod at him.

"I'll come as well" Malia said quickly, pushing herself to her feet and following Danielle out of the room.

"I'm really glad you could come tonight Mal" Danielle said as they went into the kitchen. "Wine glasses are in that cupboard there" She said pointing to the one above the oven before she headed to the drawer near the sink where she kept the cork screw.

"Those were some beautiful roses you got in the hallway" Malia said as she brought down two wine glasses.

"I know right?" Danielle said with a smile as she closed the drawer, cork screw in hand as she turned to the older woman. "I got them earlier on today; there was no name or anything just a card with three kisses on it. I thought it was Duncan at first but considering the look on his face when he spotted them when he came to get the girls I'm going to have to say no. Someone knows that I love roses though" She said with a shake of her head.

"I think whoever sent them to you knows more than that" She said cryptically. "I'd say that whoever sent you those flowers, loves you because they are just beautiful. Whoever sent them didn't get them from any old shop Danni-girl. I'd say they got them from Arabelle's florist, the best florist on the island and the most expensive"

Danielle blinked at her.

"Do you know something I don't?" She asked Malia who shook her head, holding her hand up still gripping the wine glasses.

"I promise I don't" She told Danielle, "If I did I would tell you. I recognise the wrapping the flowers came in which is how I know. Chin and I were going to get our wedding flowers from there originally" Malia commented.

"Is Arabelle's really expensive?" She asked her friend who nodded.

"Put it this way, twelve red roses is at least forty dollars and that's just for twelve. The amount you've got would easily be over a hundred dollars"

"Over a hundred dollars?" Danielle repeated, barely able to get the words out of her throat.

"Easily, probably more like a hundred and sixty dollars hence why whoever sent you the flowers loves you" She said, glancing over her shoulder before she looked back at her with a smile. "Come here" She said, taking one of the flowers which Danielle hadn't been able to fit in the vase. Danni moved to her, watching as Malia stripped the thorns off of it, cutting the stem short before she reached up and put it behind Danni's right ear, slipping it into Danni's hair so it would remain there. "Perfect" She said with a smile which Danni couldn't read. "Don't take that off yourself" She told Danni sternly.

Danni frowned, reaching up and touching the flower.

"Why not? She asked sounding confused.

"Just trust me, It's a Hawaiian tradition, everyone will understand it, especially the people who count" Malia stated still smiling the same strange smile as before.

"Okay" Danni said slowly with a shrug. "Could you take this into the living room?" She asked passing Malia the corkscrew when the doorbell went again. "I'll get that"

"No problem" Malia commented. Danni smiled at her heading back to the front door. She stopped in front of it, absently touching the rose behind her ear before she reached forward and pulled open the door, smile already on her face.
