OK... Last one

With a surprise…

They had arrived at the location pointed by Mac in record time, although they did shut of the lights and slowed down around a mile away from the house. When Steve and Jay had been creeping up to the front door and the other were rounding the building, they heard a crash and saw the perp jumping out of the window to McGarrett's and Halstead's left. They both bolted after him, but turned out guy was fast and Steve was staying behind. Jay on the other hand was keeping the pace pretty well.

"Oh… Kid is fast" Steve heard Lue marvel over the comms. He was still running and trying to figure out wich way the other two went. About two minutes later he thought he heard struggle somewhere to his right, he turned that way. Steve informed the others which way to go and a second later he saw Jay and Connor. They were still fighting. "They're both good…" he wandered… At that moment the younger detective wobbled slightly, glanced at Steve and hit Avery to the side of his head with an elbow… hard. The other man fell limp on ground. Jay grinned at Steve, his eyes rolled up and he fell too…

"Whoa.." McGarrett run over to the other two, calling for ambo over the comms…

Alter noticing the guy out of the corner of his eye, Jay run after him without thinking much. He was sure he heard Steve go with him to but lost him after around 400m. He kept on to the perp until he knew he would reach him. He propelled himself forward, tackling Connor on someone's lawn. Avery turned around under him very quickly and kicked Jay under the ribs with his knee then pushed him of and tried to bolt again. Halstead couldn't let that happen. He grabbed the other guy by the elbow and pulled. Connor swung with his left at Jay, but he saw it coming. He dodged and replied with a hit to Avery's liver. He tried to finish with a knee, but the perp blocked it and tackled him. Jay saw stars when his head hit the ground, but he still acted quick – he rolled and got up. He used a roundhouse kick to guys thigh and a quick side kick in the solar plexus, which made Connor kneel and bend over but he still managed jump up pretty fast. He pushed Jay far enough, so he had space for a high round kick. It didn't hit home, but enough to make Jay's head spin. They exchanged some more blows and they were both wobbly when Jay noticed Steve. He smiled "Time to finish…" and he hit Connor with an elbow to the temple, he hoped hard enough. He then turned to McGarrett and the light went out…

He woke up to the smell. There is no mistaking it – pure smell of every hospital on the planet. Jay scrunched his face.

"Hi there" he heard voice to his right "McGarrett" his mind provided "That's good" he thought and opened his eyes. Steve was sitting in a chair and grinning. "Nice fight" he said. Jay huffed a laugh, then turned serious.

"How bad?"

"You…? You're fine – mild concussion and some bruises." answered the other man "Avery ended up with a broken nose and couple busted ribs. He also will probably be down for life in Halawa."

"Good" Jay smiled. He thought that Connor was an awful human being, if you can even call him that. "When can I leave?" he asked.

"Doc sais you are staying for the night. No argument." said Steve "I'll pick you up tomorrow, deal?"

"Deal" *sigh* "But I am not happy"

Steve laughed and left with a "Get some rest" as a good bye.

Halstead tried to get comfortable, when someone entered his room.

"I thought I heard a familiar voice" commented the visitor

"Jeff…" Jay smiled "Will said you got a residency on Hawaii, but I think he said Maui"

"Well… Yeah" Jeff admitted "But I was visiting someone" Jay quirked an eyebrow at him "OK… I have a girlfriend here… And I am thinking of moving to O'ahu" Clarke added.

"Great" Jay grinned.

"And what are you doing here…?" inquired Jeff .

"I was on vacation…" Halstead laughed and told him all the story.

"Nice… Well. Get some rest then." said Clarke. "I'll see you around, if you indeed come back here… Hopefully not in a holpital bed though." he smiled.

"Sure…" Jay smiled back and waved good-bye.

He was signed out next day, around 3p.m. – to his dismay. Steve picked him up and decided they're going to his friend's restaurant. The whole team was there – and some more people too. They ate shrimps and pizza (damn good one, if you ask Jay). Almost all adults at the table had beers – except Halstead – he was not allowed. His pout at that information made Danny's son – Charlie laugh, so Jay guessed it's fine.

Lou dropped him of at his hotel in the evening. Jay had not had such a good night sleep for a while now. He liked these people and he knew he will come back someday. Maybe for a case, maybe for vacation, maybe even for good…

He packed up and was about to call for a cap, when someone knocked at his door. He opened to see a grinning Steve and Danny.

"You didn't think we will let you go to the airport with a taxi, did you?" asked Commander.

Jay laughed "Oh… no. Of course not." He grinned at them.

"Good." Williams said while picking up Jay's bag.

"Oh… by the way" started Steve, while reaching in his pocket "Here" he handed Jay the Five-0 badge "Keep it. And bring it with you when you on Hawaii…"

Jay stared, a bit stunned – he knew they told him to come by anytime he wanted and that they would gladly work with him again, but… That is something on a totally different level… that meant the they had not only liked to work with him. That meant that they had accepted him as part of their Ohana

"Thank you…" he said…
