Snippets – The AU style

Disclaimer
The character of Steve McGarrett does not belong to me in any shape or form. I am merely using them for my own entertainment purposes
The character of Danni McGarrett is probably mine by now. Even though she was originally based on male Danny Williams I think it's probably safe to say that's she her own individual character by now, especially since I've created a back ground for her which is different to male Danny's background in the show.
The characters of Grace Taylor and Evie Taylor do belong to me. As are any characters who are mentioned who you are not instantly aware of who they are!

Here is another snippet for you all!
This one is in what I refer to as the Detective saga, these stories are normally from when I first started writing the Danni's saga back in 2014!
Anyway please enjoy the chapter!
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.
Chapter Summary
Danni William's eyes fluttered open slowly, her mouth opening in a hiss as she registered two things at the same time. One was the fact that she was she lying in a wet patch, her nightgown sticking to her damp legs and secondly that there was a sharp pain gripping her round stomach, washing over her like a wave. She clutched at the sheet, uncaring that it was damp as she used her other hand to cover her mouth, muffling the sound of surprise and pain that escaped her.

Labour
Danni William's eyes fluttered open slowly, her mouth opening in a hiss as she registered two things at the same time. One was the fact that she was she lying in a wet patch, her nightgown sticking to her damp legs and secondly that there was a sharp pain gripping her round stomach, washing over her like a wave. She clutched at the sheet, uncaring that it was damp as she used her other hand to cover her mouth, muffling the sound of surprise and pain that escaped her.
There was no mistaking the pain, it was a contraction. That, added to the fact that her water had clearly broken, meant only one fact, Danni was in labour.
She turned slowly, her gaze landing on her sleeping fiancé next to her, he looked peaceful, clearly unaware of what was happening. She reached out shaking his shoulder hard as she spoke.
"Steve? Steve I need you to wake up right now."
Steve shifted beneath her hand, yawning widely before blurry hazel eyes focused on her with a slight frown. She watched his gaze flicker away to the alarm clock on the side of the table before they moved back to her.
"It's 2.50 in the morning Danno, what do you need?" he asked, reaching up and rubbing at his eyes as he yawned again. "Do you need some food or something because I thought you were over that stage of the pregnancy?"
"I don't want any food Steve" She gasped, her hand clenching on his shoulder hard as another wave of pain moved through her. The contractions were only four minutes apart which meant the twins were coming and they were coming extremely soon. "Steve they are coming"
"I don't understand Danni, who exactly is coming?" He asked, rolling over on the bed so he was looming over her, she glared at him when he made a face of disgust, his body clearly encountering the wet sheets on her side of the bed. "Babe, did you spill your drink in the bed or something? I thought I told you not to bring drinks up here, just in case something like this happened"
Danni considered hitting him for a moment but she didn't have the strength to lift her arm to do it.
"God you are so fucking dense Steve, who do you think is coming? The neighbours? At 2.50 in the morning" She took a deep breath and met his eyes. "Beloved" she whispered, "Operation Gemini is a go."
It was almost awe inspiring watching the change which came across Steve's face at her words. It had been his idea to code name the labour just in case they were in a bad situation when it happened but she didn't quite expect something like this. Gone was the sleepy look in a second to be replaced by a blank mask which Danni assumed was his SEAL mission face.
He leapt over her and was over to the wardrobe with his mobile to his ear before Danni even had time to blink. She watched as he threw her pre-packed overnight bag on the bed before he pulled on a pair of jeans.
"Kono" Steve barked into the phone. "Have you, Chin and Malia meet us at the hospital? I'm going to need you to look after Grace and Evie. It's finally happening. The twins are coming, Danni is in labour." He hung up on Kono before the other woman could say anything, pushing his mobile into his jean pocket and pulling on a plain white t-shirt before he was out of the room, bag in hand leaving Danni staring after him, her mouth open, and her pain momentarily forgotten.
Danni could hear him moving around, clearly waking both girls up. She could just see them through the gap in the doorway. Evie fast asleep in Steve's arms while Grace followed him sleepily, hastily dressed in the clothes from yesterday and holding two small bags, clearly one for her and one for Evie.
She watched gobsmacked, one hand pressed against her baby bump, as Steve led them swiftly downstairs. She heard the house alarm be switched off, the front door opening and closing behind him, the familiar beep from the alarm which meant it was up and running again. She listened in growing disbelief as the Camaro was unlocked, doors opening and closing before it roared into life, moving down the gravel towards the road.
"You have got to be shitting me" She said out loud, wincing at the sudden sharp sound of breaks being hastily applied. She listened as she heard the sound of footsteps running back up to the house, the front door slamming open so hard that she was sure they would have to redo the paint work when they got home. She heard Steve cursing as he wrestled with the alarm code before footsteps pounded up the stairs and the bedroom door was pushed open revealing a breathless, horrified Steve.
"Jesus Danni" he said in shock as though he wasn't the one who had left his heavily pregnant fiancé who was currently in labour behind in his haste to get to the hospital.
"I cannot seriously believe you just did that. I officially fucking hate you Steven McGarrett she said, trying to push herself up but failing, instead falling back onto the pillow with a pained gasp as yet another contraction hit her. "God" she managed to say through the pain. "I can't believe you forgot me and left me behind, you're such a…" she breathed out painfully. "You're such a bastard" Her words ended in a pained moan, god she couldn't remember it being this painful with either Grace or Evie.
"God Danno, please forgive me" he said, "I can't believe I… I can't make any excuses. I'm a terrible fiancé to you, just an animal like you say but I love you so, so much and-"
"Shut up" Danni hissed. "I'm in fucking labour Steve, this can wait unless you want me to have the babies here on our bed with you delivering them. Get me to the hospital now, they won't wait much longer. They are too far down already, I can't move, you're going to have to carry me. Stop delaying and move Lieutenant Commander" Steve moved, holding her in a bridal hold, his grip incredibly gentle as he raced down the stairs. "And no" she said as her body jerked back, going rigid in his arms. "I don't forgive you, ask me again when this is all over and we're holding our twins"
"Danno, just hold on okay, fight for me" he murmured, brushing his lips against her temple, his heart cracking slightly when she jerked her head away from him.
"God please, Malia, where's Malia"
"She'll be waiting for us at the hospital Ku'u Lei"
Danni shook her head, focusing on the pain as she fought to get through each bout of it, bouts which were coming together quicker and quicker until she didn't know where one ended and one began or if they actually ended at all. She was vaguely aware of being placed in the passenger seat, of Steve hitting the siren and speeding in a way which Danni would have normally yelled at him for. She could hear Gracie's and Evie's panicky voices calling to her from the back but she couldn't force words out of her mouth, every time she tried to say something to comfort them, the words and sound would be ripped away by another wave of pain.
She needed the hospital and she needed it now.
