Title: Taking a Break
Fandom: Proof of Life
Pairing: Dino/Terry
Rating: G



Dino thought when he and Terry formed their own shop that he wouldn't be going out into this field. He couldn't have been more wrong. He sat in his hotel room in Columbia and debated what to do. Did he go back to his apartment in midtown Manhatten? Or did he go to the island with a bottle of twelve year old scotch and enjoy life under a palm tree while his bruises faded and his cuts healed. He didn't need a doctor to taken out his stitches he could do that himself.

Decision made, hew picked up the phone booked his tickets and called for a car. He had one more all to make before he left.

"Terry, I'm going to the island. Have a Merry Christmas with your son." Dino left that message on Terry's voicemail.

That done, Dino headed down to get the car and then the airport.

He stood on the beach just put of reach of the waves, a glass for scotch in on hand and a Cuban cigar in the other. This was just what he needed, the warm sun on his back and the sand under his feet.

"Jesus mate, did you forget to duck?"

Turning he saw Terry walking toward him his own glass of scotch and cigar.

"Fuck you. Just because your side of the pond is more civilized," Dino said with a laugh.

"Merry Christmas, mate," Terry said Clint king his glass with Dino's.

"Merry Christmas, Ter."

Rating G



Danny sat alone in the small house, staring at the small Christmas tree. He'd turned down all the invitations to spend Christmas Eve with various members of the team. He'd claimed it was because he was calling his folks and would be talking to them. It was partially true. He had called his parents, and shared in their evening via speaker phone. It made him even more homesick than he had been before. He knew letting Grace go with Rachel was the right thing to. Didn't mean he had to like it.

He just missed her, missed her smiling face, and missed hearing her call him Danno.

Picking up his last bottle of beer, Danny drained half of it in one go. The doorbell kept him from finishing it off.

Pulling the door open, he saw Steve, Cath, Chin and Kono standing there smiling. As they pushed their way in he saw they carried food, beer and a bag full of presents. "What is going on?"

"Did you really think we were going to let you sit alone on Christmas Eve?" Steve asked as he sat the case of beer down.

"So we brought food," Kono sat setting the bags of take out on the coffee table.

"Christmas movies and music," Cath said as she sat her handful of CDs and Blu-rays next to the TV.

Danny looked to Chin for support, but just saw his friend shrug as he put the presents under the tree, "They did it to me too brah," he said by way of explanation.

Danny sighed, he knew it was useless to argue with them, so since he couldn't fight them he'd decided might as well join them. "What movies did you bring?" he asked grabbing his half finished beer while Kono opened the food.
