This is the last chapter of 'Shifing View'. Thank you everyone for the follows and reviews. I'm happy about every single one of them. :)

Another story is already in work and hopefully it won't take long to finish it.

Now enjoy reading everyone, I hope you will like the little fluff at the end. ^^

Dr. Keona kept her promise and discharged Danny as soon as it was safe enough for him to leave the hospital. Chin and Kono had picked up the guys and while Kono stopped by at Danny's place so he could grab some clothes and other important stuff for a longer stay at McGarrett's house, Chin and Steve preceded.

"Do you really think you need a bunch of clothes?", Kono said and looked at Danny who packed two bags.

"I want to make sure I have enough clothes for a long stay, because I'm sure Steve will not let me leave until my bruises are completely gone."

"I guess you're right." Kono laughed and took the bags from Danny who wanted to carry them to the car.

"Hey, wonder woman I can carry at least one of them."

"Not today, brah. Just get into the car and fasten your seat belt."

Danny shook his head in amusement as he watched Kono carrying the bags without the slightest struggle and smiling at him.

A few minutes later they arrived at Steve's place and before Danny could protest, Kono picked up the bags and walked to the front door.

Chin opened the door and smiled at Danny who muttered that it wasn't his idea to let Kono carry all the stuff, while she walked in and greeted Steve who was sitting on the couch. Chin gently patted Danny's shoulder and whispered to him.

"She wants to help and assist you as much as possible. The happenings of that night really scared her."

"Me too. It's nice to have you here."

"We're ohana, Danny", Chin added with a kind smile.

"What are you waiting for? Come over here."

Chin and Danny smiled at their friends and joined them on the couch while Kono took the armchair and made herself comfortable.

"So what are we eating for dinner?"

"You're already hungry? It's still 3 PM", Steve gave Danny a questioning look.

"No, not yet, but why not think about it now?"

"Are we going to order something?"

"How about chinese food?"

"I prefer to eat something that I can pronounce."

"Pizza?"

"Only if it's without pineapple."

"You're picky."

"I'm not. I just have some rules when it comes to food."

"Some rules? There are more than just some rules. It's like a guide, 'Danno's 100 rules for food'. Maybe you can write a book about it and by the way pineapple is delicious."

"Oh yeah, what about your control issues? I would read that book if you ever decide to write it."

"Hey guys, time out. Pizza sounds good and Danny you get yours without pineapple."

Kono laughed as they silently nodded in agreement.

They ate pizza for dinner and even though Steve glanced from time to time at Danny's pineapple-free pizza he stayed quiet.

The first evening ended on the couch and with a movie. Danny fell asleep after the first half and leaned against Steve who let his partner use him as a pillow while silently munching some popcorn Kono had made. The movie was good, but Steve had seen it already and a few minutes before it ended, he dropped off as well. Kono and Chin looked at them and couldn't hold back their soft laughter.

"They are totally exhausted."

"Yeah, let's get them into bed."

"Steve? Hey brah, wake up." Chin gently touched Steve's shoulder and shook him slightly.

"What's wrong", asked Steve and looked up.

"You fell asleep on the couch. Let's get you up into your bed."

"Yeah."

"Careful, Danny is still leaning on you", Chin laughed and held Steve back who wanted to stand up. Kono woke Danny and helped him up.

A few minutes later they were in Steve's bedroom and the two boys came to rest on the bed. Fortunately all of them had already changed into pants and shirts. Danny was fast asleep in just a minute. Kono was heading for the second bedroom while Chin took the couch.

Chin was the first to wake up in the morning and went out on the Ianai. He changed into his akita form and spent some minutes on the soft grass, while listening to the crashing waves of the ocean. It was peaceful and he had almost dozed off when he heard footsteps inside the house. Without having to take a look he knew it was Kono, because he was used to her soft footsteps, her scent, well everything.

"Good morning cuz. Sorry I didn't mean to disturb you. I'll go and prepare breakfast. Join me when you're ready."

Chin smiled internally and followed her. He morphed back and put on his clothes then walked to the kitchen and helped her with breakfast.

"I'll go and wake Steve and Danny, in case this wonderful smell haven't already roused them", Kono laughed and went out of the kitchen.

She came back a few minutes later and told Chin they would come down soon.

The day was quiet and peaceful. Steve went to the Ianai for a quick swim, closely watched by Danny who rested in the chair and enjoyed the gentle breeze while talking with Kono who sat beside him. Chin had gone to buy some groceries and other things. They planned to barbecue on the Ianai at the evening.

"Do you miss your wolf form?"

"What's with the sudden question?", Danny asked surprised.

"I just ask, because I kinda miss being a tiger when I don't morph regularly. I guess you're getting used to it as a part of you and when you don't give it enough space in your life it becomes an urge."

"I see. So far I'm not missing it, but I think I know the feeling you're talking about. It's like someone is telling me to morph and that I would feel better if I do."

"You're not feeling good?" Danny could feel Kono's concern more than he saw it because he didn't dare to let his eyes wander off to someone else than Steve who was still in the water. At least he wasn't diving and if Danny wasn't mistaken he seemed to be swimming back to them.

"My ribs still hurt when I move too careless and even though Ailana told me to rest it doesn't help much with the bruises. I feel awfully stiff after lying for too long in the bed."

"This sucks." Kono smiled sympathetically at Danny who laughed softly.

"Yeah, it does. It's similar to how I felt after Steve's military morph training."

"Seriously, military training?"

"He denied it, but I'm pretty sure it was some kind of Navy SEAL training", Danny replied with a wink and made Kono laugh.

"What's so funny?" Steve joined them and sat down in the grass, gratefully taking the towel Danny handed him.

"Nothing, babe."

"Do I have to use water torture on you to make you speak?"

"You wouldn't dare."

"Wanna test me?", Steve grinned.

"Just wait when I can change again and I'll make sure to bite you where it hurts."

Steve flinched and held up his hands.

"Okay, you win."

"You really get along like cats and dogs", Kono said and laughed as Steve tried to hug Danny who started a rant about what would be waiting for Steve if he even put a drop of water on him.

Later in the evening

Chin had bought a lot of stuff and they were making jokes that the food supplies would last for half an eternity. Steve and Chin were handling the grill while Kono and Danny prepared a salad and other stuff.

They sat peacefully outside on the Ianai and enjoyed their dinner.

After they had cleaned up they went inside and prepared to go to bed, Steve and Danny going ahead.

Danny was walking up the stairs as he suddenly tripped and reached for something to hold on to while trying to stop his fall. He grunted in pain as his side protested about the sudden movement and the contact with the stairs.

"Danny!" Steve ran to him and carefully removed Danny's hand that rested protectively on his side.

"Let me take a look. Are you in pain? Did you break something?"

"Yes and no", Danny answered and winced as Steve palpated his side.

"Stop pushing, you animal. It hurts bad enough without you putting pressure on my bruises."

"I have to check if you broke a rib again. Stay still."

"I didn't break anything. Help me up, would you?"

"I said stay still, Danno."

"And I said, stop that. Ow!"

"It's okay, nothing broken."

"I told you", Danny growled in response, but allowed Steve to guide him upstairs.

"Careful, take it slowly."

When they arrived in the bedroom Steve gently helped Danny to lie on the bed.

"Do you need anything? I can get some pain meds if it hurts too badly. Or do you prefer some ice?"

"Could you please just stop fussing over me that much? You're worse than my mother."

Steve looked perplex for a second than he nodded.

"Okay, fine. I thought..." Danny looked up at Steve as he suddenly stopped in the middle of the sentence and put a hand on his neck. He shook his head slightly and blinked a few times.

"You're okay?", Danny asked concerned.

"Yeah, just a bit dizzy."

"Whoa, watch out babe."

Danny grabbed Steve's hand as the tall man almost lost his balance.

"Sit down, you look pale."

Steve did as he was told but he insisted on being fine nonetheless.

"No need to worry about me, Danny. It will pass."

"Sure. Please let me decide if there is a reason to worry about you, okay? Even when you have been shot you keep saying you're okay so excuse me for not taking your word that seriously."

"You're using that against me?"

"Of course I do, you goof. You have no idea how to define 'being okay'. Dr. Keona said you have a nasty concussion and should be resting. Instead you're walking around, taking a swim, which worried me half to death by the way and I was afraid to even look away for a second because I thought you would drown if I did and now you picked me up and brought me here. I'm impressed your head haven't shut down yet."

"You're done?"

"No actually I haven't even started yet, but I'll have mercy on you today. Call me crazy, but I still haven't lost hope yet that one day you'll see how reckless you are and that no matter what people tell you to do, you just can't take care of yourself. One thing's for sure though, one day you'll drive me into madness with your behavior, you damn Super SEAL."

Steve could only barely stifle his laughter at Danny's rant.

"At least you're up for one of your rants, Danno. That's nice."

"Hey!" Danny grabbed his partner's shoulders and held him steady when Steve almost tipped over.

Danny was uncomfortably bent as he held Steve secure on the bed, but he knew that he couldn't hold him forever so he called out to Chin and Kono, hoping that they heard him.

Chin entered the room only a few seconds after Danny's call for help and grabbed Steve. Together they managed to maneuver the tense SEAL into the bed.

"What's going on here?", Kono asked as she joined them.

"He overdid it and started to feel dizzy a few minutes ago", Danny explained as he carefully sat up and leaned against the headboard.

"Overdid? He seemed fine an hour ago." Kono gave Danny a questioning look.

"I tripped on the stairs and he fussed over me like a mother hen without taking care of himself. When we got here he swayed and said he felt dizzy."

"I wasn't swaying."

"Wait, what?", Kono asked completely ignoring Steve's protest.

"It was an accident", Danny explained as Kono stared at him.

"I don't doubt that but you should've been more careful. What did Steve do?"

"Except freaking out?"

"Not funny, Danny", Kono said and gave him a serious look.

"He helped me upstairs and got me into bed. Then he swayed."

"I wasn't swaying. I just felt a bit dizzy and it's completely gone now, by the way."

As if to prove his point Steve got up but it ended with another wave of dizziness and Chin catching him, before he could faceplant on the floor.

"Nice try, kitty cat", Danny commented with a smile, but poke Steve in the ribs.

"What was that for?"

"That was for you being reckless...again."

"Okay, stop that. You two are the worst patients ever, bantering all day like an old couple", Kono interfered, her hands on the hips.

"Danny you should've been more careful with the stairs and let somebody help you. And Steve it's nice that you want to take care of Danny, but Chin and me are here to help you both, so you can heal properly and get your rest. Instead you hurt your ribs again and you got dizzy. You both overdid it. Now stay in bed and sleep like you're supposed to."

"I have nothing to add to that", Chin said, smiling at his cousin and leaving the room.

"I'll be back with some ice and pain meds."

Neither Steve or Danny dared to object so they waited until Kono came back and handed them the items.

They both took their pills and Danny carefully put the ice on his sore ribs as he lay back down.

"Thank you, Kono."

"It's okay, that's why I'm here. Now get some rest."

"We promise", Danny answered and Steve nodded in agreement.

When Kono closed the door behind her and they were alone Steve turned to Danny.

"What's with this look?", Danny asked.

"You weren't a bit scared of her? Kono scolded us like a mother would do with her children."

"Do you think we just got grounded?"

"Well, yeah."

"So what do we do?"

"Climbing out of the window?"

"Animal, that's so typical for you. Let me ask you something. Are reckless things always your first thought or do you calculate first which reckless act has the highest risk? Because seriously, I think that's what you do. The highest risk is barely good enough for you."

"I'm a SEAL, Danny."

"This is an explanation but not an excuse."

Steve couldn't hold back his laughter as Danny gave him one of his looks that always left Steve speechless for a short while.

"So what do you suggest?"

"Well, how about continuing our little thing we started at the hospital?"

"Oh you mean this one", Steve whispered and got closer to Danny, carefully placing a hand on his partner's hip and letting his head rest on Danny's chest.

"Yeah, that's nice. I could get used to it."

"Do you think we're like an old couple?"

"Would it upset you?"

"Not really. What about you?"

"Same. Now sleep, babe or Kono will give us another round tomorrow."

"True." Steve chuckled lightly.

Just as he wanted to close his eyes he felt the urge to do something. He lifted his head and as Danny looked questioning at him he gave him a gentle kiss.

"Good night, Danno."

Danny smiled and returned the kiss.

"Good night, my reckless kitty cat."
