When Steve opened his eyes, the first thing that caught his eye was a glimpse of Danny's wary blonde hair. He had his head resting on top of Steve's bare chest. Steve immediately got reminded of last night as flashes started to flow by inside his mind. He smiled and wrapped his arm around the man on top of him. He let his hand slid through Danny's hair and with gently playing Danny's ear, he created a movement from the sleeping guy. Danny was waking up. "Mornin' Jersey," Steve softly spoke.
Danny yawned as he rubbed his eyes. He blinked when he noticed Steve aside of him. "Steve!" Impulsively he did an attempt of raised himself and felt a twinge while doing so. Then carefully, he took a look below the bed sheets and got himself another conformation that it all wasn't just a wet dream. "God.. Last night.."
"I don't have any regrets, Danny," Steve said. He moved himself, softly pinching one of Danny's hands while he helped Danny in a more comfortable position with placing his other hand supportive at Danny's lower back.
"I don't either. But.. What now?"
"We'll figure it out." Steve leaned in on Danny closer and placed a gentle, soft wet kiss on Danny's lips. "I love you, Danno."
"I love you too, babe." He blinked his sleepy eyes and escaped a small yawn again. "Clearly, we didn't do much sleeping last night.." he mumbled while stretching out.
"You know what, we don't have anything planned today so why don't you stay in bed for a little while huh?" Steve chuckled Danny's ear again. "I'm gonna take a quick shower and then I'll make us come coffee and breakfast." He pressed a quick kiss on Danny's forehead before stepping out of the bed.
"Steve, it was you right?" Danny started as he stared a little long to Steve who now was standing naked in front of him, looking at him questioning. "The card? That's why you reacted so upset last night, because you sent it?"
Steve nodded.
"Thank you, you soft cookie," Danny panted softly. "Now go get that shower before I'll drag your pretty ass back into bed again," he said, smiling as Steve gave him a wink on his way out.
After his shower Steve walked pass the room Danny normally had slept in. The door still was half open and Steve's eye caught a glimpse of the card he sent Danny. Steve smiled at the thought that Danny had brought it with him and had given it a nice place on the bedside table. Steve walked in, grabbed the card and while reading his own words again he continued his way to the kitchen.
He left the card on the living room's table and while he went to grab the coffee, he felt his phone vibrate inside his pocket. He grabbed the phone and saw it was Tani who called him. "Hi Tani, how's Eddie?" he spoke after picking up the phone.
"Hey boss, I'm calling you to let you know Junior's landing soon and I'm heading there to pick him up," Tani said. "I can drop off Eddie at your place first if you want?"
"That's great news Tani. No need to drop off Eddie first, he's capable of staying alone at your place for another hour. I'll pick him up after breakfast," Steve answered.
"Thanks McGarrett."
"Thank you too, Tani.. for.." Playfully Steve let the coffee spoon glide in his hand. "For your advice, you know about.. Danny and me.. yesterday.." Steve felt the warmth coming back while his mind wandered off to last night.
"Aww," Tani's voice at the opposite side of the line sounded dreamily. "I want to know all about it!"
"Yeah well, later. Now go get your own man first!" Steve grinned.
"I will, say hello to Danny for me. Bye!"
"Will do, bye Tani!" Steve smiled as he hung up the phone. Then he pressed the button of the coffee machine and opened the fridge for fixing himself and Danny some breakfast. Then after putting what he needed on the counter, he got disturbed by yet another distraction namely a few impatient sounding knocks on the door.
"Yo, McGarrett! Open up!"
Steve took a deep breath as he immediately recognized the voice of Sang Min. He headed towards the door and slightly opened it. "Sang Min.. Um.." Steve greeted his long haired 'old friend'.
"Hello, McGarrett!" Without waiting for an invitation, Sang Min stepped pass Steve inside the house.
"He, you can't just walk in!" Steve widened his eyes and rolled them instantly as his memory reminded him of the fact that this was exactly the way Sang Min's mind worked. The last time the man surprised him was when he found a bloody Sang Min inside his kitchen. "This isn't really.. a good time.." Steve attempted to dismiss the guy.
"Why, because you've got a hot date lying in your bed?" Sang Min looked around him, frowning. Then he used his head to point the empty beer bottles. "Either your Valentine's night was just as sad as mine or your date drinks like a man!" He frowned and gave Steve a rather suspicious look.
"What do you want?" Steve wasn't planning of letting Sang Min destroy his mood.
Before Sang Min had a chance of answering they both got distracted by a background's noise. "You know babe, calling you an animal is an understatement.. you're a beast! I won't be able to sit for a week!" Danny entered and as soon as he saw Steve's visitor he'd wished to sink through the ground. "Jesus.."
"Detective Williams!" Sang Min showed Danny an odd smile and then he turned to Steve again. "Mystery solved, there's your hot date!" He grinned big when he noticed the awkward body language of both the men. "So I interrupted the two of you on a bit of an intimate moment, huh?"
Danny tried to ignore Sang Min and as a gesture, he waved his arm towards Steve. "So, you couldn't have warned me?"
"How?" Steve frowned. "What was I supposed to say? 'Wait a minute, Sang Min, let me warn my partner in my bedroom not to come out and say something stupid', something like that?"
"No, I was more thinking of something like: 'Oh hello, SANG MIN, what a surprise to SEE you!' loud enough for me to hear. What'd you think of that, huh?" Danny responded.
"Don't mind me.. I knew you guys had the hots for each other, so it was only a matter of time." Sang Min shrug. "Good for me, big money comin' my way!"
Danny and Steve exchanged glances. "You made bets on us ending up together? To who?" Danny asked.
"Just with a few of my former buddies, I hope they're still alive tho.." Sang Min showed his well-known dirty smile again.
"This is great.. just great.." Danny sighed. "Of all people, why must he be the first one to know? I'm not ready for the whole Island to know about us yet!" Danny complained, slightly in a panicking tone.
"Well, if it makes you feel any better, actually he wasn't the first one to know. Tani called..-"
"Terrific Steve," Danny cut of his partner. "Just tell everybody before discussing with me first, like usual!"
"Everyone already knows, 'Danno', you're joining the party a lil' late!" Sang Min interfered.
"Shut up, Sang Min!" Danny rolled his eyes while Steve shot the chatty guy a look worth to kill.
Sang Min's grin grew, he enjoyed this a lot. Then he looked around. "What's that?" he asked, referring to the Valentine's card he discovered on the table. "Won him over with a Valentine's card, McGarrett?"
Steve shook his head. "No, because he first thought you sent it.." Steve shot Danny a look.
"Me? I'm honored," Sang Min sarcastically said. "You know what, if this new relationship fails, I'll send the both of you a Valentine's card next year!" he joked. "But that's all.. I like the ladies, you know.. Like that former colleague of yours, Spicy.. Divorced huh? Arrange me her phone number?"
Steve once again rolled his eyes at the guy. "Just tell us what you want, Sang Min."
"Yeah, why don't you do that Sang Min? The faster we're rid of you.." Danny gave their unwanted guest a look.
"Well, it's not the same thing you want, I can assure you that!" Sang Min gave the blonde a wink but then he took a deep breath. "I needed a favor," he continued on a rather serious tone. His facial expression had twisted only a second later as he gave the pair a playful frown and showed them a grimace. "But clearly you lovebirds have other things on your minds, huh? I'll ask someone else.." he said while heading towards the door. "I'll let myself out!"
"Don't come back!" Danny called after him and as soon as Sang Min left they both went back to the kitchen. There Danny turned, pointing a finger at Steve's face. "We better hurry with telling everyone we want to know about us before he beats us to it!" Danny complained while hopping himself on the counter.
"Drop the worrying look, Danno, you're gonna get more wrinkles.." Steve smiled and leaned to his man closer. "And what happened to 'I won't be able to sit for a week' ?"
"I exaggerated, which I now regret.."
"Hmm, as usual.." Steve mumbled while giving Danny a sloppy kiss. "Guess what I want to do with you now.." He lowered his kisses and let his hand rest on Danny's thighs.
"Tempting, but.." Danny let his feet hit the ground as he was wringing himself sideways out of Steve's strong, greedy arms. "This house attracts too many people so we better watch out.. Besides, I need coffee," he said while he grabbed himself a coffee mug.
"I can use a cup too, I'll make us breakfast too and after that I need you to go pick up Eddie at Tani's," Steve shared. Then he told him about Junior.
"Can I use your car? Mine just had a car wash and Eddie's shredding..-" Danny shook his head as Steve was frowning while throwing a suspicious laugh at him. "Of course I can't use your car, why do I even ask?"
"I need it myself," Steve simply said.
Danny looked at his partner stir the eggs. "Let me guess, Sang Min?" He knew the tall control freak too well. "You just have to know why he came to visit you."
"It's probably nothing but Sang Min's on the right track, let's keep it that way. I'll make it up to you later.."
