I wrote this because bswindle20 wanted to see them at the resort, and I wanted to write it. This is pretty much shameless, pointless fluff (as opposed to the shameless, pointless schmoop of the last chapter :) ). If you're happy with the way the last chapter ends, feel free to skip this.

Danny woke late the next morning. He was surprised to see Steve still cuddled up beside him. Usually Steve was up early for a run or swim. He might come back to bed, but he wouldn't fall back asleep. Today, Steve was still out cold.

"We're on vacation," Steve mumbled into Danny's shoulder. Danny hadn't said anything, but he supposed Steve had sensed his surprise.

Danny rolled over to face Steve and grinned wickedly at him. "A romantic vacation."

Steve grinned back. "Guess we should do romantic things, then." He kissed Danny deeply.

Once they'd finished appropriate morning calisthenics, Steve and Danny got in the car and headed towards the resort. Danny got an even closer look at the lava fields and was amazed. "Haven't you ever seen them before?" Steve asked.

Danny shook his head. "No. I've only been to the big island on cases, never as a tourist."

Steve grinned. "Well, we're just going to have to change that."

The lava fields soon gave way to the coast, which Danny had to admit was pretty when he wasn't forced to be out in the middle of it. They stopped at one of the many black sand beaches, and Steve coaxed Danny out onto it, bitching all the while about how it may be a different color, but it still got in inappropriate places.

From the coast they veered slightly inland into the rainforest. The jungle was dense, and Danny wondered how a resort for dragons could possibly flourish. There seemed to hardly be any room for one dragon, let lone a whole resort full.

After a bit the jungle gave way to a large clearing. They were several resort buildings and acres of clear fields, dotted with large forms Danny assumed were dragons. There were more dragons circling overhead. Danny was awed. He'd never seen so many dragons in one place, not even at a Williams family reunion. There were humans, too, but they were fewer, and Danny assumed they were mostly dragons in human form. There weren't many humans who were as comfortable as Steve around dragons in their natural form—Rachel was a prime example of that—and Danny had never heard of another dragon with a human soulmate.

Steve had reserved a cottage for them for the weekend. It had a large sitting room, complete with large-screen tv and satellite package, a full kitchen, and a large bedroom with a gigantic bed. "We could try it out," Steve suggested, coming up behind Danny, wrapping his arms around him, and nuzzling his neck.

Danny kissed him. "There'll be plenty of time for that later. Now, I believe you said something about waterfalls?"

"What, is Danny Williams actually volunteering to hike through the rainforest?" Steve teased.

"Absolutely not," Danny said firmly. "Something was mentioned about flying, if I recall."

Steve grinned. "Sounds good to me."

They packed a lunch, and Steve harnessed himself to Danny. Danny lifted off and fly a couple of laps over the field to warm up. One of the other dragons flew low over them, his talons practically brushing the top of Steve's head. Danny let out a cry and took off after him. They chased each other a few minutes until Steve grew impatient. "C'mon, Danny, let's ago," he sent through their telepathic link."

"But I don't get to do this very often," Danny protested.

"What, fly? You fly all the time at home."

"Yeah, but that's mostly at night, over the ocean, and never with other dragons. I haven't played like this in forever."

"But I wanted to spend time with you. Alone," Steve pouted.

"Okay, fine." Danny waggled his wings in farewell to the other dragon and sped off over the rainforest. As usual, Steve was exhilarated by the sensation of flying, and his enthusiasm was matched by Danny, who flew low, skimming the tops of trees and startling brightly colored birds into flight, then soared up to catch a thermal and glide along for a ways.

All too soon for the both of them they arrived at their destination, a small waterfall that ran off into a clear, blue pool. Beautiful," Danny breathed.

Steve slid off Danny. "Yeah, it is. Worth the effort of getting here?" He ribbed Danny.

"It's no effort when I'm flying. Just when you force me to hike it."

Steve felt Danny start to shift. "No, stay, just for a little bit."

Danny complied. Steve coaxed him into the water and the splashed about for a bit. Steve was foolish enough to start a waterfight, which Danny easily won, thanks to his greater bulk. Steve swam towards the waterfall and Danny followed, squawking in surprise when he went too close and the cascade fell onto his head. "No fair!"

Steve laughed. "You did that to yourself, not paying attention."

"Hrrmph." Danny flapped his wings, shaking off water and drenching Steve.

"Hey!" Steve protested.

"Serves you right," Danny grumped.

After that, they climbed out of the pool and Danny shifted into human form. They ate their lunch, talking lazily about nothing in particular, then stretched out in the sun to dry off. Steve suggested Danny shift back into a dragon, but Danny refused. "I think I'd rather do some of those other things you mentioned last night we can't do in dragon form," he said suggestively.

"Oh, you mean the cuddling?" Steve said innocently.

"Mmm, I was thinking more of this." Danny stretched out on top of Steve and rolled his hips.

"I could go for that," Steve agreed, rolling Danny over.

They headed back in the late afternoon, then changed for another romantic dinner before retiring to their cottage for another round. The next morning started the same as the previous, waking up late wrapped around each other and making love before starting the day.

"I was thinking the private island today,"Steve said over breakfast.

Danny made a face. "What, sand?"

"The snorkeling's supposed to be fantastic, and you know you like lying in the sun."

Danny sighed. "Okay, fine. Just don't think you're getting me in the water."

After breakfast, they took off again, this time flying low over the water. Fish were jumping, and Danny snagged one with his talons, then soared triumphantly higher with his prize. Steve laughed at him. "What are you going to do with it?"

"Eat it," Danny replied. "I read the brochure while you were getting ready. There's lots of fishing, and they'll clean and cook your catch."

"I though you didn't like fishing."

"I don't with you, on a boat in the middle of nowhere with a boatjacker who forces us into a leaking dinghy. Like this is a whole different story."

"Fine," Steve thought. "You can fish while I snorkel, then we can eat your catch."

"Sounds like a plan to me."

The day passed pleasantly in that manner, interspersed with naps on the beach, Danny lounging in dragon form and Steve curled up in the shadow cast by his bulk. It was late evening when they flew back, Danny taking his time, catching thermals and gliding, flying high and plunging down, and otherwise enjoying himself. Steve loved it, too. Flying was something he never got enough of, and spending so much time flying like this with Danny was heaven.

Sunday Steve convinced Danny to hit some of the more touristy spots of the island. "I thought the point of the weekend was for me to be a dragon as much as I wanted," Danny protested.

"It was, until I found out you'd never been here," Steve replied. "I thought we'd hit some of the major waterfalls and scenic spots between here and Hilo. No long hikes, I promise."

"Okay, fine," Danny conceded. At the end of the day, he had to admit he was glad Steve had made him do it. It was too crowded, and he felt confined in his human form after the past two days, but the falls and other sights were gorgeous, and it was wonderful being with Steve without getting shot or anything exploding.

Monday morning Steve woke Danny up with a kiss. "Do I have to get up," Danny groaned.

"Sorry, babe. Time to get back to the real world."

Danny wrapped his hand around Steve's neck and kissed him back. "Don't wanna."

"Sorry, no choice."

Danny sighed. "Fine. Do we at least have time for one more of those activities we can't do when I'm a dragon?"

Steve grinned, looming over him. "I think that can be arranged."

As Steve kissed him again, Danny sighed blissfully. This had truly been a weekend to treasure.

Question for future story: I'm torn between calling the one where Steve finds out he's a dragon Hidden Treasure, Buried Treasure, or Surreality Check. Any preference?
