His Risk To Take ~ Steve McGarrett

Six.

Charlie's Pov:
I stayed at Steve's for a while since the accident it was three in the morning I held a cup of coffee sitting on the railing to his house looking out at the beach. "Hey" a soft voice spoke up I jumped looking over to see Steve sitting there. "hey" I smiled softly he sighed looking over at the beach also "Can't sleep?" He asked I shook my head looking down at my mug. "PTSD, everytime I shut my eyes I see my self back in that room." I whispered to my self I tried to pretend to ignore it but I couldn't. "This world keeps spinning so fast. My world is crumbling before me they did something's to me down there and I did nothing to let this happen to me. I don't know what else to do Steven" he sighed standing up walking up behind me "First give me that" he reached over taking the mug out my hands setting it on the table

"Secondly come here" he lifted me up off the rail of the back porch we walked inside "I can walk you know" he chuckled walking up the stairs passing the spare bedroom "You passed my room" he shook his head with a smile "Not tonight" he pushed his door open with his foot. He sat me down on the floor letting me go once I was standing on my own "Are you sure?" I asked him he slid his top off tossing it across the room on the chair "Oh come on Charlie your acting like this is the first time we ever done this." I crossed my arms over my chest staring him down

"McGarrett the last time we sleep in the same bed was when we were six" he laughed shaking his head "Oh come on we are adults now get in bed" he got under the covers I sighed walking over to the other side. I climbed under the covers "Can I cuddle you?" He asked I looked over at him "I'm just trying to help maybe I can take away the dreams if not we can try something else" I nodded my head "Okay" he smiled he slid one arm under my pillow I snuggled into his chest he was all warm and smelled so god damn good. It was like gunpowder mixed with the beach and also a tad musky. I snuggled into his chest closing my eyes he wrapped his free arm around my waist he slid his hand up my shirt tickling my back softly I smiled softly to my self I felt so safe that the world crashed around me hard.

   ~Morning~
I yawned stretching I rubbed my eyes slowly sitting up in bed. I yawned moving my hands I froze in place Steve stood there with just a towel around his waist and just a flannel still unbuttoned "Umm good morning" he smiled a little I couldn't help but look at his chest and quickly back up to his eyes "Um morning" my face heated up I knew I was blushing "I'll umm I'll be in here" he backed away crashing into the dresser I giggled a little he smiled shutting the door. I climbed out of his bed walking out the bedroom I walked down stairs right into the kitchen as I walked in his partner was standing there leaning against the counter

"Good morning" he smiled I raised my eyebrow a tad "Good morning?" I questioned he nodded his head "Oh I have a key" I nodded my head walking over to the cabinet grabbing a coffee mug pouring me some coffee. "So did sleeping with me last nigh.. Danny what are you doing here?" Steve asked stopping mid sentence as he finished buttoning up his shirt "No no go ahead finish that sentence" Steve gave him a look I took a sip of my coffee "How did you sleep last night did it help?" He asked me I nodded my head softly.

"More then you think" he smiled he made a Togo coffee walked up to me leaning down kissing my cheek "good I'm glad" he walked over to the fridge going to pull butter out but his phone rang he pulled it out "McGarrett" he answered he stood there for a moment "Sleeping with PTSD will get better soon, trust me" Danny whispered I smiled softly at him thanking him "We are on our way" he hung up I sighed deeply "Sorry Love maybe we can do that tomorrow alright?" He dumped his coffee into a Togo cup "No yeah that's fine go do your job he opened his cabinet pulling a gun out. "Here if you are in danger only to use this okay?" I nodded my head they both gave me hugs goodbye leaving

Steve's Pov:
We rushed out to Danny's car driving to the scene "So I can see you haven't told her yet" Danny said I looked over at him for a moment before I looked back at the road "Can she have some time to rest and relax after everything she went through before I drop the bomb of me not wanting to be just friends" Danny shook his head laughing "Don't you think that would maybe help her forget what all happened when you tell her?" He asked I shook my head  "And what if she don't feel the same way? Then what am I going to do Danno? Huh? Got a plan for that? Let's not add more to the plate I'll tell her when the times right" we pulled up to the scene still bickering about it.

"Now what are you two fighting about?" Lou asked Danny shook his head "I just think it be a good idea if Steve her would maybe tell Charlie how he feels." Lou nodded his head in agreement "See, I knew I liked you for some reason" Lou laughed shaking his head "I think he should wait she has enough on her plate now let's deal with this crime scene shall we?" Kono said walking up to us. "See take it from another female stand point gents" I tapped there backs walking up behind her going to work
