"V-necks are a summer style." Steve commented, with a pointed look at Danno's chest.

His partner's face screwed up in that Did you actually just say that expression as he turned to stare at Steve incredulously. "It's always summer in this perpetual hell, what difference does it make?"

Steve shrugged, turning back to the road, knowing that he wouldn't have to wait long.

"No, no, what does that even mean?" Danno continued, "You people are always wearing V-necks – and that's if you even bother to get dressed at all!"

A smirk threatened to creep its way onto Steve's face, and he subtly smoothed down the corners of his mouth with his thumb and forefinger, as if that would help. "Well if you're gonna start wearing t shirts, you should at least try to stand out less than if you stayed in your shirt and tie. Do you see me wearing V-necks in autumn?"

Steve's hand had drawn Danno's gaze up to his lips. At the question, Danno looked down a couple of inches to check Steve's admittedly not-v-neck neckline. After an involuntary flicker back up to Steve's mouth again, Danno transferred his eyes out the window. Non-descript trees and mansions were definitely a safer bet.

"Come on, Danno, 'm just trying to help." Steve said matter-of-factly, turning into his driveway.

"Well next time I step into the car with the fashion police, I'll be sure to council your valuable opinion, ma'am." Danno replied, trying to shift the focus off him.

"Ma'am? Seriously?" Aneurysm face was back.

"Babe, you called me a girl back at headquarters, do you not get to complain about this one." Danno informed him, tentatively easing himself out of his beloved car, trying not to mess it up any more than he had already. He grimaced at the muddy finger marks left on the edge as he shut the door, and his attempts to clean it only resulted in a bigger smear.

Meanwhile, Steve had strode up the path and was getting his door open when Danno came pouting up behind him. "Shoes off." Steve ordered, automatically checking for disturbance signs as he entered his house. Tossing Danno's keys on the side, he turned around just in time to catch the glare Danno was sending his way.

Danno knew Steve had a point – for a man who regularly enjoyed getting into gun fights and reliving his boyhood scout days, Steve did keep a clean house. Almost in defiance at Steve's highhanded behaviour, Danno met his eyes squarely as he toed off each shoe, but he didn't stop there.

A muscle in Steve's jaw ticked as he watched Danno haul the offending t shirt off, glad his SEAL reflexes kicked in to catch when Danno threw it at him. He would not have lived it down if he missed because he was too busy gawping at the well muscled expanse of torso he rarely got to see. Still holding the soft material in his hands, Steve looked up sharply again at Danno deliberately leaning one muddy hand against the pristine wall to balance as he removed his track pants and tossed them at Steve again.

"You okay there, Steve?" Danno's manner was self assured as he took in the way Steve's eyes ran up and down his frame.

Instantly, Steve's mask of cool dropped back into place as he fixed Danno with a disparaging glare, clearing his throat, "You look like shark bait."

The insult resulted in a chuckle from Danno as he turned and made his way up the stairs, this time making an effort to avoid ruining any more of Steve's walls.

Steve didn't even pretend he wasn't watching and waited until Danno was out of sight until he turned back into the kitchen to put his partner's clothes in the wash. As he heard the hum of the shower switch on, Steve's mind drifted back to that handprint on the wall. Danno's print... Then he started musing about other situations in which Danno would have his hands on the wall.

For a Strategic Op., Steve considered that he wasn't being that strategic about it. A dark laugh escaped him as he crept up the stairs to put his plan into action.

Danno was just starting to feel the benefits of his transition from wild werewolf back into a presentable human form when he heard the door open. Peering through the fogged glass, Danno's heart rate calmed as he recognised the familiar hulking form of Steve shouldering his way through the door.

"Steven," he warned, turning his back and submerging himself into the alluring spray again, "You have already had your shower, you do notdeserve seconds."

Steve's head whipped up at that, his glee spreading as he considered the context of Danno's go-to scenario, "Relax Danno, I'm just washing my hands – you have all the hot water up here." He tried for the innocent approach.

"Because you don't have a sink downstairs." Danno sulked, but in the comforting bubble of Steve's master jet shower, the retort had lost all possible bite. He cleared a large section of glass at eye-level to check up on Steve.

"Yeah, let's go with that one." Steve shot him a grin through the mirror, making it clear that he was not begrudging Danno one drop of that warm water. It was Danno's returned grin that solidified Steve's intent. He waited until Danno went back to his shower before stripping, his clothes falling silently on the floor.

Danno reflexively turned when Steve opened his shower door and stepped in. "Did you get the mud all the way up your arms, babe?" Danno stared at him in surprise, not knowing how to handle Steve crossing that line.

"Tap wasn't working." Steve lied smoothly, falling back on their comfortable banter to conceal the slight falter at Danno's lack of dramatic reaction.

Danno nodded slightly dumbly, still not taking his eyes off Steve's face. He had always assumed it would be up to him to spark something off between them. There had been the jokes about their relationship right from day one, but Danno had always thought of him decking Steve as a defining moment in their history. Steve usually communicated better with actions than words.

"Did you, uh, want to come in the water?" Danno offered in a soft voice, seeing Steve was a little unsure of himself. Personally, Danno had no problem with being into men, but he had just assumed that it would take Steve more time to come to terms with the idea.

"Thought you were going to leave me standing out in the cold." Steve replied, moving up close to crowd Danno into the large back wall.

"Thought you wantedto be out there in the cold." Danno gave Steve a last out, resting a hand lightly on Steve's narrow hip, as if he were about to be thrown off any second.

Steve gave Danno that one-sided smile, pressing up against him, encouraging Danno to touch him, "Nah, I had it all planned out." He admitted, leaning down so that he was inches away from kissing Danno.

"Well, now I don't know if I should feel like the cheerleader or the mathelete." Danno bitched good naturedly, his thumb idly tracing the dips of Steve's toned stomach.

"More like the co-captain." Steve let slip, ambushing Danno with a bruising kiss that Danno quickly returned, mashing himself up against Steve and taking a firm hold of his bicep. Steve flexed in appreciation and grinned into Danno's mouth as the smaller man's grip only tightened. Steve backed off a few inches, his nose close enough to still press next to Danno. "You're not going to let me just win, are you?" He asked, not sounding exactly displeased with the idea.

"Hell no," Danno affirmed, reaching to twist the shower so it would still pour over both of them when he leaned against the wall, "after this little game today you're going to have to earn everything you want, babe." He tilted up to quickly kiss Steve in reassurance again, and smirked in achievement when Steve followed as he pulled back.

"Everything I want?" Steve repeated, but it sounded more to himself than checking with Danno.

"Within reason." Danno amended, knowing that Steve was likely to twist this situation into him getting unequivocal rights to design the new version of Five-0 full means and immunity procedure.

"I'm reasonable." Steve protested, moving down to latch on to Danno's neck and collarbone, biting down on the inviting skin before soothing the sting with alleviating licks, only to suck on the sensitised nerves for further torment.

"That's going to leave a mark – you sure you're alright with everyone knowing about that?" Danno warned him, his voice roughened in obvious pleasure by how much he was enjoying himself.

Steve nodded, not wanting to break away much from his newfound dessert, "Better than that stupid tie." He murmured, deciding Danno was far too coherent for his liking. Reaching down for Danno's cock, Steve began a slow rhythm of firm strokes, enjoying Danno's mumble of appreciation.

Slapping Danno's hands away when he tried to reciprocate, Steve lined them both up in his large hand, getting even harder at the heavy slide of Danno's cock against his own.

"I really didn't mean to take the water, but I, uh, got distracted." Steve told Danno, drawing his gaze from their dicks to look up at him.

"Yeah?" Danno caught on, returning his hand to Steve's arm and moving the other to play with a slick nipple. "What was I doing?" His pupils had dilated so intensely that there was only a tiny surrounding of light colour.

"The stream." Steve was beginning to sound a bit strained, images of what Danno had actually been doing and the fantasy version in his head getting confused and merging together.

Danno began to feel his dick throb as he watched Steve switch off into a private movie, his grip tightening around them both as it would if he was automatically using Danno to get off out of habit.

"You can touch, babe, I'm right here." Danno called him back, more for himself after having been put through weeks of Steve stripping off his shirt every five minutes and him finally being allowed to touch.

Steve looked down to watch their cocks sliding against each other and decided that he was going to earn everythinghe wanted, shushing Danno's sharp protests as he let go. Danno soon calmed when Steve knelt down and sucked Danno's cock into his hot mouth, loving the heavy thud of Danno's head falling against the wall as Steve licked the salty head.

Danno groaned, scratching his fingertips through the short hairs as the base of Steve's neck in encouragement. Steve had just found his most effective way of robbing Danno of all coherent speech. The vibrations of a small chuckle transferred down Danno's entire body and Danno's eyes shot open to peer down at Steve, water droplets pounding off his broad shoulders to drizzle lazily down the curve of his spine.

His gaze then went to the motion of Steve's hand that was not currently teasing his balls, and the idea of Steve fisting his own dick while sucking him off and fantasising about him pushed Danno to his limit.

Danno felt the approaching tingle of that mind-numbing heat and his hand tensed on Steve in warning as Steve took him in further down his throat and transferred the hand on Danno to hold the jerk of his hips steady. Danno's impression of Steve's experience with men was completely upturned. Steve merely sucked harder, determine to bring Danno to complete and utter ecstasy, looking up at him with darkened bedroom eyes that should be illegal and promised to fuck him six ways 'til Sunday when they got out.

Danno's vision blacked out as he came down Steve's throat, the image of that overwhelming debauchery burned into the back of his eyes.

In the next moment that he was aware of, Steve was snuggled close to him, holding his weight up while he gently cleaned them both. "Apology accepted, babe." Danno assured him. His limbs still not fully under his own control, Steve manhandled Danno out the shower and into the steamy bathroom, wrapping a towel around Danno before hastily attending to himself.

Watching Steve roughly towel off his hair, Danno felt that there was too much distance between them, and promptly stepped back into Steve's personal space. Steve grinned, leaning in for a fervent kiss. Now that they had shaken up the workplace dynamics, Danno didn't think they would run out of water again.
