I Love Him-Part 2

This was loosely inspired by Little Did I Know by Julia Michaels so the lyrics are bold and in italics.

I groan as I feel another wave of nausea sweep through me. My morning sickness isn’t that bad and I can go a whole week without throwing up and then I wake up one day and the toilet bowel becomes my best friend and I can only keep down popsicles and Gatorade. When the morning sickness creeps in it sticks around for a couple days and then I feel fine for days. The only person that hates it as much as me is Steve.

After the whole blow up a month ago when Danny found out we were dating and that I was pregnant Steve and I decided that I would move in with him so he could help throughout the pregnancy and so Danny didn’t have to handle our ‘lovey dovey moments’. I gag into the toilet bowl before emptying the contents of my stomach for the third time this morning. I lean against the sink and wipe my mouth with toilet paper when I’m sure I’m done puking.

I push myself off of the floor and flush the toilet before washing my hands and brushing my teeth. Steve had left earlier this morning before I was out of bed so I was home along with Eddie. Ever since I moved in Eddie has been my emotional support animal. Every time I puke he’s laying beside me or whining on the other side of the door and I dare not go anywhere without him or he has a little doggy meltdown.

I open the door to meet Eddie’s concerned expression. I scratch him behind his ears, “It’s okay bud, I feel okay now.” He whines and licks my hand. I chuckle and head into the living room to watch tv. After about an hour I’m getting restless around the house and have to go somewhere. I haven’t puked anymore so I should be good to go. I make a decision and grab Eddie’s leash before calling for him, “Come on Eddie, we’re gonna go see daddy.”

He comes barreling out of the kitchen where he had been laying and prances by the door. I chuckle and grab my keys before opening the door. I get Eddie into the passenger seat and start the engine.

When I get to the palace I hook Eddie to his leash and head in. I’m greeted by the people that recognize me and ask how I’m doing. I get in the elevator and Eddie sits by my feet as he waits for the doors to open. I cup my stomach, even though I’m only a little over a month I already have a small bump since I’m carrying two bundles of joy. The elevator dings before the doors slide open and Eddie is all but leading me through the building to get to Steve. I open the door and unclip Eddie’s leash since I know he won’t leave my side.

I walk in and everyone looks up and Danny comes over and give me a hug and a quick kiss on the cheek, “Hey sis, how ya doing?” I groan and he nods in understanding before I hear Steve, “Another one of those days?” I spin around and nod, “This is your fault.” He frowns and crosses his arm, “I’m sorry but last time I checked it takes two to make a child.” I roll my eyes, “Well if you weren’t so damn charming.” He chuckles before kissing my cheek, “I’m so very sorry you have no restraint.” I glare at him before my face breaks out into a smile. I wrap my arms around his waist and bury my face in his shirt taking in his scent. Even when any smell sets me off the smell of Steve calms me, I still can’t figure it out but I’m not going to complain.

He rubs my back and I hear Danny gag. I turn around to face Danny, “Shut up, when you’re carrying around and growing two children inside you and even the slightest smell or disgusting looking thing sends you puking you can judge my comfort techniques.” He puts up his hands and backs away when I hear a small growl. I look down to see Eddie sitting by Steve and I’s feet glaring at Danny daring him to make me mad. Everyone laughs and I look up as Grover comes into the room holding a cup. I take a whiff and scrunch my nose and gag, “What is that?” Grover goes to answer and Steve yells, “DO NOT! Do not say that word around her right now, she will throw up.” Grover’s eyes widen and he takes a step forward and I gag again as the smell gets stronger. I squeeze Steve’s arm and his eyes widen before he runs to grab a trash can. I grab the trash can and empty my already empty stomach as Steve takes the hair tie off my wrist and pulling my hair up into a bun. I sigh as I stand up straight and look down when I feel something lean on my legs. I look down to see Eddie looking up at me.

Danny comes to offer me a tissue and Eddie jumps up and growls at Danny and Steve stops Danny, “Here just hand it to me, Eddie won’t let anyone near her right now.” Danny furrows his eyebrows, “He lets you near her.” I laugh as Eddie steps to the side as Steve walks back over and puts an arm around my shoulders, “That’s because he knows Steve helps me and you are someone he’s iffy about. He hasn’t been your biggest fan since the night that you found out I was pregnant.”

Danny crosses his arms and pouts, “Well if you weren’t so dumb that night wouldn’t have happened.” As if he knew what Danny said Eddie runs over to him and bites his pant leg and pulls him away from me. He shakes his leg yelling at Eddie to no avail. I choke back a chuckle and yell, “Eddie! Leave it!” He obeys and comes back to sit by me not taking his eyes off of Danny.

Grover laughs, “That dog sure hates you Danny.” Danny rolled his eyes, “No he’s just protective of Y/N.” I nod slightly before saying, “Not that protective.” Danny snorts, “Please like anyone can get closer to you.” I raise an eyebrow before turning to Grover who had gotten rid of his coffee, “Lou?” He looks at me, “Come over here.” He looks skeptical but walks towards me. Eddie lets him stand side by side to me but keeps a close eye on him. Danny throws his hands up, “Oh come on!” Eddie growls at Danny again and I laugh as Danny looks so offended. Steve looks down at Eddie, “Relax.” Eddie’s stance relaxes and Danny’s jaw drops, “How? How!?”

I chuckle, “As long as you don’t touch me he won’t bother you. The only one allowed to touch me is Steve.” Danny sighed, “Well that’s just dumb.” I flicked my eyes to him with hidden humor, “Listen brother it’s not my fault you aren’t as intelligent as my dog, he knows Steve helps me and is the only one that can make me feel better. And he knows you annoy me.” Danny frowned and I laughed until Steve’s phone rang.

I kiss Steve goodbye as him, Danny, Junior, and Tani go to get on the boat Serenity after the saw the satellite images with a lot of bodies on it.

I groan as I’m awoken from my well deserved nap by my phone buzzing and ringing on the coffee table. I grab it without checking the caller ID, “Hello?” I rub my eyes and sit up when I hear Lou, “Y/N/N?” I furrow my eyebrows, “What's wrong Lou?” I heard talking in the background before he answered, “Just get to headquarters as fast as possible, it’ll be easier to explain.” I sit up and grab my keys and slip on my sandals before getting off the phone I look down to see Eddie with his puppy eyes, “I’m sorry buddy but you have to stay here.” He whines as I head to the car.

I rush through the glass doors and see Lou and Jerry standing around the computer. When they see me I watch as they both take a deep breath and glance at each other as I walk closer. Lou licks his lips nervously and glances at Jerry again. At this point my emotions are haywire and my patience are wearing thin, “WHAT IS GOING ON!?”

After a few minutes of stuttering out what’s going on tears slip down my face as I take in a shaky breath, “So, you’re telling me my brother and my boyfriend, are stuck on a boat in the middle of the ocean infected with a deadly virus that is going to kill them within 8-9 hours unless we find an antidote before the times up? An antidote that we don’t even know exists!” They nod and I spin around to face away from them as I process everything. I cover my mouth with my hand as a sob escapes my throat. I feel a hand on my shoulder as I hear Lou’s sympathetic voice, “Y/N-,” I brush his hand off my shoulder as my voice hardens, “Stop! Don’t get sympathetic on me. Now I need some time to think so I’m going to go into Steve’s office and I need some time alone, but come and get me if there is any news.”

I enter Steve’s office and take a deep breath relishing in the overwhelming smell of Steve. I round his desk and sink into his chair. I lean back in the chair before sitting up as something grabs my attention. There right beside the picture of Steve and I as he kisses my cheek and my face was split in a large smile was another smaller picture. I grab it and feel the tears fall harder as I quickly recognize the fuzzy picture of two dots the size of a grain of rice, the first and only sonogram picture besides the one hanging on our fridge that we got at my appointment a few days ago. I press the frame against my chest and break down into tears. He can’t die, he’s not allowed.

I look at the picture of us and set the picture of our twins beside it and smile a sad yet happy smile. I grab the picture of us and smile as the memory floods through my mind.

*Flashback*

I lean onto Steve’s arm as we watch the sunset on the beach behind his house. I wrap my arms around his waist and stare into his eyes, “I think I did something my brother is going to hate me for.” He looks down at me with confused and concerned eyes, “What happened?” I look back out at the ocean still holding onto him before whispering, “I fell in love with his partner.” I feel him stiffen under me and I feel my heart pound against my rib cage as my brain yells at me for telling him. He looks into my eyes like he’s searching for something and he must find it because his whole body relaxes and he smiles, “That’s okay, I fell in love with his sister.”

I smile and stand on my tippy toes and place a kiss on his cheek before grabbing my phone. He looks at me curiously, “What are you doing?” I smile, “Taking a picture of us.” He makes a face before saying, “I don’t know I don’t really do pictures.” I smirk before replying, “Yeah well not long after we first met you told me you didn’t do your friends’ sisters, but look where you are now.” He lets out a humored chuckle, “Alright, I’ll take a picture for you, but don't expect it to be a common occurrence, it’s a one time thing.”

I smile and turn the camera to selfie mode, “We’ll see about that.”

*Flashback Over*

I chuckle a tear filled chuckle as I look on the other side of his desk to see a picture of Steve, Danny, and I. It was taken before Steve and I started dating but all three of us were close so we had a picture taken of us when we had a dinner at Steve’s. I stood in between the boys with Danny’s arm over my shoulder and Steve’s looped around my waist. Thinking back now I realize just how into each other we were before we started dating and still get confused as to how Danny didn’t know.

I look up as the door opens and quickly wipe my tears and sniffle as I see Lou. He comes in and sits across from me on the other side of the desk. We don’t say anything for a few minutes but his presence reassures me, “I love him you know.” He looks up at me confused, “Yeah, I know.” I shake my head, “Yeah, but I don’t think anyone realizes just how long I have loved him.” He furrows his eyebrows, “What do you mean?” I smile and set the picture down on the desk, “I fell in love with Steve before I even met him, I know that sounds crazy but it’s true.” He nods with a slight chuckle, “Yeah sounds a little crazy.” I chuckle slightly, “I can pinpoint the moment I realized my feelings were more than friendship. It was after this one case when Danny had been hurt and I remember he called me to tell me because he knew how close we were. Danny was fine, obviously, but I still panicked and he calmed me down, something only one person before could do so easily, but he was my brother not some stranger I talked to on the phone. I said about how I just need someone to rant to about everything Danny does but it can’t be Danny because he’ll worry about me because I worry about him. Without another word or even the slightest hesitation he gives me his number and tells me to call him whenever I need to talk. I didn’t think I would use it and then Danny yet again got hurt and I called Steve and we were on the phone for hours. I didn’t know it at the time but that’s when I fell in love with him.”

Lou nodded his head, “Yeah, he has that way about him. Always showing up when you need him most, and saying just the right damn thing that calms you down and you can’t understand how he does it. It’s just who he is.” I nod, “Almost losing Danny or Steve is hard enough but knowing that both of them are hours away from dying, I can’t even explain how I feel. It’s like I’m suffocating and the world around me is fuzzy and all I can think about it what I’m going to do without them.”

He stands up and comes around the desk, “You won’t have to live without them , we’ll find a way to fix this.” I nod and look up when Jerry opens the door, “Steve’s on the phone.”

I jump out of the chair and run out and Jerry starts talking to Steve, “There’s someone here who wants to talk to you.” I push him out of the way gently, “Steve!” I hear a happy sigh, “Hey, baby.” “How are you guys? Is there any signs showing.” I don’t get an answer and the silence tells me everything I need to know, “How many?” I hear him take in a deep breath before answering, “All of them.” I let out a shaky breath as I choke on a sob, “How long?” I bite my lip bracing myself for the answer, “A couple hours.”

I cover my mouth so he doesn’t hear me cry, “Y/N/N, Danny wants to talk to you.” I sniffle, “Okay.” I blink back tears as Danny comes on, “Hey lil sis.” “Hi Danny.” I hear him sniffle and I let out a breath to calm myself, “Don’t you cry, alright, we’ll find a way to fix it.” “Sis, you need to prepare yourself, just in case.” I shake my head violently, “No! You aren’t dying today! Steve’s not dying today! No one is dying today! Do you hear me!? No one!” “Y/N/N-,” “SHUT UP DANNY!” I hear him sigh before I hear talking in the background before I hear Steve’s voice, “It’s alright Y/N/N, it’s going to be okay.” I know he’s not meaning them making it out alive I know he’s talking like they’re going to die and I’ll get over it. My voice breaks, “No it’s not. I love you, I need you….we need you.” I know it’s not right to make him feel guilty but i couldn’t help it. I hear him take a deep breath and sniffle and my tears fall faster as I realize he’s crying, he knows the outcome is against us, “I love you too, all three of you.”

“Steve?”

“Yeah?”

“The summer before you, I thought love was Shakespearean, more or less a painful experience only ever real if you’re delirious. But little did I know that you would be the one I’d confide in, learn how to try with. Little did I know you would be the one that would save me, learn how to change me. It’s not over yet Steve, don’t give up. You wouldn’t let me so I won’t let you.”

I heard a small sob escape his throat, “Okay, it’s not over yet. I love you.” I close my eyes with a small smile, “I love you too.”

As soon as the call is disconnected I fall into Lou and breakdown. He rubs my back as he speaks, “It’s okay, they’re gonna be okay.” I look up as Adam comes in, “I have a lead, but we have to move now.”

When Lou and Adam get the antivirus they come back to HQ and drop off Adam and Lou will go out in the helicopter to give them the antivirus. Which lead to our current conversation, “I’m going with you.” Lou spins around and shakes his head, “Oh hell no, it’s to dangerous there’s a storm rolling in.” I grit my jaw and cross my arms before popping my hip to the side, “I said I’m going with you it wasn’t a question, it was a statement. And I swear to god I will shoot you if that’s what it takes to get me on that helicopter.” Everyone looks at me surprised and I yell, “ARE WE GOING OR NOT!?”

I squeeze my eyes shut as I look out of the helicopter. I don’t like heights, the only time I’m fully relaxed is when I’m with Steve. I feel the helicopter jerk to the side and I bite my lip as the bile rises into my throat. Lou snaps his head to me when he recognizes the look, “Oh God, please don’t puke.” I glare at him as the copilot hands me a bottle of water. I take it from him with a smile and look down as the pilot announces we’re here.

I jump up and point, “There! Right there! I see him!”

The helicopter jerks again and I watch as the case falls into the ocean, “No, no, no.” The next thing I know I’m all but in Lou’s lap as I watch Steve dive in after it and the wave takes him under, “Steve!”

Time Skip

I knock on the glass of the room the boys and Tani are staying in. They look up and smile. I press the button when they get closer, “Hi guys.” They all say hi but I’m only looking at one person, “I told you.” He chuckles, “Yeah I know, you’re always right. How are you feeling?” I shrug and pat my stomach, “All good, no more vomit since yesterday.” He smiles and I turn to Danny with a smile, “How’re you doing?” He nods, “As good as I can get with this selfish lunatic trying to kill me all the time.” Steve glares at Danny and yells at the same time I do, “HEY!” Danny looks at me with mouth agape, “You’re defending him!? He almost got me killed, on multiple occasions!” I scowl before crossing my arms, “First of all Daniel, yesterday wasn’t his fault. He didn’t know until you guys were already on the boat and you’re one to talk, who was there by your side when you were stuck in front of a bomb and the slightest movement would have killed you? Oh that’s right, Steve, and you can pretend to hate him as much as you want but you’ve said time and time again that if anything happens to you, you want Steve to take care of Grace and Charlie. So shut your trap before I come in there and pummel you.”

Steve crosses his arms and smirks and Danny looks at me offended and Tani laughs, “Oh God I frickin love you, you have the Williams attitude and the McGarrett stubbornness. Those kids are gonna be stubborn and sassy as hell.” I nod and Junior sighs, “Yeah it’s funny until you live with it. Trust me, pregnant hormonal Y/N is not someone you want to mess with. She almost killed me because I finished the orange juice.” I shrug and nod in agreement, “It’s true, I also chased him down with a spatula because he stole some eggs right out of the pan.” Steve laughs and pats Juniors shoulder, “Buddy you’re in for one hell of a surprise if you think that’s from the pregnancy, she’s always that protective over her food.” Junior looks at me and I raise my eyebrow with my arms crossed as he curses, “Damn it, now isn’t the time to tell her I finished her cookies is it?”

My eyes widen and I grit my jaw, “YOU WHAT!? Oh you son of a bitch be glad there is unbreakable glass between us or so help me God I would castrate you!” Junior gulps and Steve sighs, “Yeah, that is pregnancy hormones. She usually just smacks you with something. Never threatened to castrate me before.”

I smile at Steve before sighing, “God I wish there wasn’t glass between us right now.” Everyone besides Steve scrunched their face in disgust and Danny starts gagging profusely, “Oh god I think I’m gonna be sick.” I roll my eyes, “No need to be dramatic about it, I’m literally pregnant with his children,” I motion to Junior before continuing, “and Junior was there when it happened and we have defiled HQ more times than you can count and Danny was there for like 98% of it.” Danny has a look of absolute disgust and Junior looks like he’s gonna cry before Danny groans, “Oh God please tell me nothing happened in my office.”

Steve and I glanced at each other before glancing at Danny and he starts gagging for real this time, “Ew, ew, ew, how many times and tell me it wasn’t on my desk!?” I bite my lip and look at Steve again apologetically knowing he’s stuck in there for another week with Danny, “Like, umm, I don’t know, like, ten, maybe fifteen times, and ummm…..I’m sorry?” He pushes Steve’s shoulder and yells, “You disgusting perve! You fucked my own sister in my office on my desk!? What the hell is wrong with you!” I opened my mouth to say something and stopped myself until Danny went to punch Steve, “DANNY!” His head whips around to me still holding the front of Steve’s shirt, “He uh, he didn’t initiate it in your office, that was me.” He drops Steve’s shirt and looks like he’s going to cry, “Why? Just why?” I shrug, “I was horny, why else?” He covered his ears and walked away. I look at Junior and Tani to see them both amused but also disgusted. I roll my eyes, “Relax your offices are safe.” They sigh in unison, “Oh thank God.”

Once they walked away Steve chuckled, “You're so mean.” I shrug before he continues, “And thanks for saving my ass, if he knew I was the one that started all those times in his office I would be dead.”

I chuckled, “You’re welcome, just don’t tell him about the time we did it in his kitchen. He may die.”

I looked at Steve wide eyed as I saw Danny’s red face and he yells, “YOU DID IT IN MY KITCHEN!?”
