Author Note

Here's another snippet for you.

I know that I normally don't update daily when it comes to my stories but I had this one already prepared and since I seem to be on a bit of a writing spree today I figured that I would put it up for you all rather than just sitting on it for a while.

As with every snippet featured in this story I will be coming back to it in the future. I think I have the equivalent of about five chapters of this story written up so when it does eventually go up I should be able to update it quickly.

This story features both male and female Danny/Danni so please enjoy"

The 'From the Beginning' Saga

Snippet Thirty Three

"It's official, I am quite possible the worst father in the world" Danny Williams announced loudly as he threw himself into the chair next to Jack O'Connor and glared moodily across the table at Chin Ho Kelly and Steve McGarrett, looking as though he blamed them for the fact.

"Morning to you too Danno" Steve remarked unfazed by the dramatics as he continued to eat his porridge, his phone on the table as though he was waiting for a call.

Danny huffed, turning to the pretty waitress when she approached him with a questioning look on her face.

"Coffee black and a plate of blueberry pancakes with a side of bacon please sweetheart" He said to her, turning away from her and rolling his eyes when he caught the look on Steve's face.

"Don't give me that look" He grumbled "They are just pancakes because I've had a bad day."

"Danno" Steve said, sounding unimpressed.

"Nope, enough. The only four people who I'll actually listen to when it comes to stuff like this is my three children and your wife Steve and that's only because I'm pretty sure she'd kick my ass, pregnant or not" He said, unable to keep the small smile off of his face at the grin that came to Steve's face at the mere mention of his pregnant wife.

"That's true" Chin remarked, taking a sip of his coffee. "I'm pretty sure that Danni could take any of us out if she chose to."

"Why are you saying that you're the world's worst Dad then?" Jack asked him curiously with a raised eyebrow. "You seem to be doing well with them from where I'm sitting."

"Why? Why you ask? I'll tell you why" Danny said reaching up and rubbing his hand over his face before he smiled at the waitress as she placed his cup of coffee down in front of him, he wrapped his hand around it, waiting until she was gone before he continued. "I'm the world's worst father because there is exactly ten day until Christmas day, count them, only ten and I still haven't gotten my baby his present yet."

"Which baby?" Chin asked curiously. Danny raised his eyebrow at him.

"I only have one baby" He told the native "Levi is my youngest therefore he is my baby. All he wants for Christmas is a Chemistry set but it's not just any Chemistry set because then it would be easy to get. No Levi wants a certain one which does everything and they are sold out everywhere. Rachel told me about it last month when I dropped the kids off to her and I thought I'd have plenty of time. I didn't think that it would be so popular but apparently it is and now I'm screwed at it's my fault."

"Danno…" Steve began saying stopping when Danny interrupted him.

"Don't say it's not a big deal because it is Steve. Levi never asks for anything for himself, never. This is the first time he has asked for something and I've let him down because I didn't plan ahead. If I don't get it for him somehow then all I'll hear for the next year from my darling ex-wife is how I let our baby down and if I had let her know then she could have asked Stan, freaking perfect Stan, to get it for him instead. There's no way I'm allowing that idiot to buy my baby the one present he wants. Levi is my son, he's not Stan's" He stated, reaching up and running his hand through his hair uncaring of the fact that he had just messed his hair up. "I bet you brought Javon's presents in May or something so this didn't happen to you" Danny said to Chin "And you, well you just depress me sometimes with how good a Dad you are, so I'm not even going to think about when you bought your babies their presents" He stated to Steve.

"Okay then" Chin said calmly, placing his mug on the table. "Firstly where have you looked for it?

"I have looked everywhere on this God forsaken island." Danny said, leaning back from the table so the waitress could put his plate of food on the table for him "But it's nowhere Chin. I can't have my baby disappointed on Christmas day of all days. I can't do that to him. It would kill me to be the cause of it."

"Look Danno, it's not the end of the word. We just need to find Levi a chemistry set which beats the one you can't get. I can help you, you know. Chemistry was one of my best subjects when I at school and in the Naval Academy. We'll get this sorted for you" Steve said, passing Danny the blueberry syrup before he could ask for it.

"You can't beat this one Steve, I looked up the reviews, this Chemistry set is the best on the market and it's not on the island" Danny told him "So unless you're suggesting we go to the mainland and have a look there or build him one from scratch then I'm not getting your point" Danny told him.

"Out of those options I'd go for option one personally" Steve responded distractedly, looking away from the other three when his cell phone beeped at him.

"Option one? Are you listening to yourself?" Danny demanded "Hey put the phone down and tell me what you mean" Danny said, rapping his knuckles against the table in front of Steve to get his attention. Steve sighed, looking up at him.

"I'm listening to you Danno" He said, before taking pity on the other man. "Look this weekend, Danni is going the mainland for some sort of gala thing for one of her writing federation or something and she has to go because she's on the board or something. I wasn't going to go but since reading this message" He said indicating his phone "I'm obviously now going to have to go as well because there's no way in hell I'm letting my gorgeous pregnant wife out of my sights when one of her publishers is trying to get into her pants. If I have to dress up in a monkey suit for the evening then I don't see why you shouldn't either. She's got a spare ticket. I'll tell her that you're coming with us and then you can search for the Chemistry set there. It's in New York so they are bound to have it."

"New York? You want me to go to New York?" Danny said in disbelief sharing a look with Jack while Chin shook his head.

"A gala thing?" Chin said "Nice to know you pay attention to your wife Brah"

"Firstly" Steve said, pointing his finger at Chin. "I'm not even meant to go, this is me doing a favour for Danny so he can get on the mainland for his son and secondly" He said moving his finger to Danny. "Did I happen to mention that a certain dark haired medical examiner is going as well as Danni's other guest" He commented.

Danny stared at him for a moment.

"Abbie Fitzgerald is going?" He demanded, a smile coming to his face when Steve nodded at him. "Well I suppose a trip to New York isn't a bad idea, not when it's for Levi anyway. When are you flying out?"

"Friday as soon as work finishes, Danni is coming to meet me at the office." He said, reaching over and stealing a piece of bacon from Danny's plate, just missing Danny's fork. "Hey none of that, if you want me to help you by speaking to my wife and getting you that ticket, then you better treat me better than that. Besides look at all that bacon on your plate. What would Gracie say is she saw all of it? If anything you should be thanking me for the help" He commented, reaching over and snagging another two slices with a smug smile.

"Fine" Danny remarked with a huff, leaning back in his chair. "You win, this weekend we'll fly to New York and go to Danni's book gala thing and then in the morning we'll find Levi his Chemistry set" He agreed.

Steve grinned at him, taking a bite of his bacon,

"Relax Danno, what could go wrong?"
