At the hospital, Danny refused to sleep while he waited for Steve to bring the kids. Even as the doctors cleaned and sutured his bullet wound, he only allowed them to use a local anaesthetic so he could remain awake. As much as his body and mind craved sleep, Danny stubbornly held on. His wrist throbbed and entire body ached, the pain pump hooked to the rail of his hospital bed tantalizingly close. He shifted restlessly causing Kono, asleep in the chair next to him, to wake instantly.

"You okay, brah?"

"I thought they'd be here by now."

"We don't know which safe house they used, but I'm sure it will be any time."

"What if something's wrong?" Danny started to sit up.

Quicker than Danny thought possible, Kono was at his side, holding his good hand to keep him from getting out of bed. "Nothing's wrong. You know Steve would've called."

"Our phones..."

"He knows where we are, brah." She gently pushed him back down. "Just try to relax. They'll be here any time."

As if on cue, the room door opened and Steve appeared, grinning from ear to ear. "Everyone decent in here? There are..."

"Shut up, you animal, and get out of the way."

"Danno!" Charlie burst into the room. Steve was just quick enough to catch him mid-jump as he aimed for his father.

"Whoa, buddy!" Steve put him down gently onto the bed. "You're dad's a bit sore."

"You okay, Danno?"

Danny wrapped his arms around his little boy and sighed. "I am now."

"Danno." Grace gently touched his casted wrist followed by a bruise on his cheek. "Are you sure you're okay?"

Danny reached out to pull Grace to him as well. "Awww, monkey, I'll be fine. I'm so much better now that I know you two are okay. Thanks for taking good care of Charlie."

"Uncle Adam took good care of us, too." Grace smiled and then went over to hug Kono. "I'm sorry you got hurt, Auntie Kono."

Kono smiled and squeezed Grace. "Your dad took good care of me."

Danny wiggled his fingers and motioned Grace back over. He pulled her down to whisper in her ear, "Auntie Kono was pretty badass herself."

While Grace giggled, Charlie gasped and sat up. "Danno, you said bada..."

Steve scooped him off the bed before he could finish the sentence. He was further saved by the door opening again for Lou and Adam to come in. "Look, Charlie, the gang's all here."

"Ewwww!" Charlie exclaimed as Adam kissed Kono.

The room broke into laughter, including Charlie who blushed bright red and buried his head in Steve's shoulder.

"Well, I don't hear that often in a hospital. Laughter sounds good."

"Hey, doc." Steve turned, still chuckling a little and patting Charlie on the back.

"I came to see why one patient wasn't in her room yet and whether my other patient had finally allowed the nurses to give him the pain meds. I see that the answer to both of those questions is no."

"Sorry, doc." Danny grinned. "We were just having a moment."

"An Ohana moment." Steve clarified.

Everyone in the room smiled and nodded at the doctor. Lou, in his booming voice, added, "We'll make sure your two patients get their rest and meds, but our ohana had a rough day. This is the kind of medicine we all need right now."

The doc surveyed the room and returned their smiles. "Take all the time you need, but if my two patients want to be released tomorrow, they'll take their meds and get some sleep."

"We will." Danny and Kono nodded at each other. Danny let Charlie settle in next to him again and smiled.

As the doctor let the door close behind him, he snuck one more glance at the group inside. He noted the smiling, contented faces and knew the patients would be just fine, they all would be, even if they didn't get a wink of sleep that night. Before he continued on his rounds, he pulled out his phone. He had the sudden urge to call his family.

A/N: Some of you thought I might get a bit ornery and cause more trouble, but I thought it was time our Ohana caught a break and had a little warm and fuzzy moment together. I hope you've enjoyed the story. Hopefully it won't take me another two years to finish my next story. :-)
