Chapter 6
"We should have used a condom." Danny panted as Steve pulled her closer. Once she was halfway on top of him, she leaned in and kissed him.
Steve deepened the kiss. One arm wrapped around her, his hand massaging her boob. The other hand that he used to pull her on top of him roamed and caressed her leg. A dopey smile donned his features, "Danny, you're already pregnant."
"And now also messy... Both thanks to you."
Steve didn't see that as an insult at all. "I'll clean you up, promise. I'll take care of you."
Danny enjoyed the view of Steve walking around in his birthday suit to collect their clothes from the floor before going to the bathroom to get a clean towel. He practically pounced on the bed and kissed Danny lazily and happily. With the towel, he took care of cleaning up the mess. He wasn't as rough as Danny thought he'd be. He was caring and gentle. Kissing and licking along the way.
He stopped at her stomach and marveled at the information he now had. Because of what they've done...his sperm, her egg...together they were going to make a little life. And that life was going to grow each and every day until it was born. And they'll depend on Steve like no one ever has...and they'll also love him without fault or condition. "If I'm a good dad..."
"What?"
Steve's head shot up and blinked. He shook his head and shrugged. Adjusting himself so he was face to face with Danny's stomach, he drew imaginary lines. "Just thinking..."
"What to be more specific?" Danny coaxed. She's been there, but this was a first for Steve.
"There's life in there Danny. A life we made. We took a little from you...a little from me...and now there's a whole new being in there. They're so small...and they're going to depend on me...to show them how everything works. How to protect themselves...how to trust. And if...if I'm a good dad, they're going to love me. Unconditionally.
Danny guessed what Steve was getting it. So she reached for Steve's hand and while his was placed over her flat stomach, hers laid on top of him. "Whatever cases we have...we'll solve them. When we retire, we'll make sure there aren't any open-ended cases that'll come back an bite us in the ass. We'll be safe and be there to love and embarrassed our kids however we deem fun."
"I'm not gonna embarrass my kid. I'm going to be the fun parent." Steve argued lightly as he placed a kiss on top of Danny's stomach.
"Ha. You'll have a good 12 years if you're lucky. You'll be their hero. But then one year...it's all boy bands and whatever the cool kid deems cool is cool, whatever your dance moves are will now be lame dad moves...trust me, babe, you're gonna be embarrassing and I can't wait for it." Danny said with a big grin.
Steve rolled his eyes but he'd let her have this moment. Instead, he just leaned in and kissed her.
When they got to Five-0 headquarters they were greeted with streamers and balloons and even a cake. And a lot of hugs.
"So...does this mean I have to move out?" Junior asked.
"What? No." Danny said.
"She's right. We're not going to kick you out like that Junior. We'll help you find someplace first. But you're coming back to help babyproof the rooms. Actually, I'm going to need everyone's help with moving Danny in and -" Steve said as he started making lists in his hand.
"Whoa! Wait a minute...who says I'm moving in with you?" Danny asked.
"Um well...we're having a baby. And uh...we're...we're together now right? I did read that right, right?"
Danny sighed, "Yes, you did. But Steve...we can't go rushing into any decisions."
"But Danny, before you know it, the baby will be here. We need to renovate, plan, make backup plans for the backup plans and contingency plans for those." Steve said.
"Stock up on diapers and wipes," Tani said,
"All the clothes that'll fit for like a week to a month and then be too small, or too ripped, or too dirty beyond salvation," Lou added with a smirk.
"Okay! Okay! Look, out of everyone here, I think I know pretty damn well what to expect. Steve doesn't. My place, which has been fit to take care of two of my children already is a pretty good place. One that I'm not leaving."
"But Danny..." Steve wanted to argue.
"Look...Juniors staying here for now. He'll help you babyproof the place. When it's time for a bigger shift...we'll talk and maybe he can just come live at my current place. Until then, I'm heading home to sleep in my own bed."
"Danny..."
"Is there a case?" Danny asked.
Lou nodded, much to Steve's chagrin.
Danny turned to Steve and said, "Go. Solve a crime. I'll be home napping. When you're done I'll have an appointment set up."
"Appointment?" Steve asked.
"To see how I am, how the baby is doing even if it might be too early, but we can at least guess the due date. As well as set up other appointments."
"Oh...well, that means I should be with you and not go on the case," Steve argued.
"Go. Or I'll go on my own."
Steve frowned but in front of the whole team, he pulled Danny in for a very passionate kiss that involved dipping her down a bit. " Whatever my gal wants, my gal gets."
