AO3 Account Summary: He’ll get used to it - he gets used to everything. But he’s only got five days before he’s back to Africa and it feels worthless, almost. Fucking mission, fucking Basher for getting caught out. Now he’s here, wandering the streets with nowhere to go and no one to see, because he can’t go home and he can’t tell anyone he’s here.
That AU in which Steve is an active Navy SEAL and Danny is in New Jersey, owning a gym.
Review:
Months and Miles from Dreams is by far one of my favourite H50 stories. It takes a very interesting and realistic glimpse at a situation where Steve and Danny meet before 2010 under very different circumstances. Steve is still in active service and Danny never became a cop, or married Rachel.
They are two lonely men who find company in each other, much to their surprise. Steve is emotionally stunted and doesn't communicate, Danny is hot headed and rants. Even though the setting is unlike the one of the first season, the two of them manage to find love and happiness.
