Steve McGarrett had many looks. His partner, Danny Williams, called them "faces".

There was Steve's "aneurysm face", which made him look like he was about to blow either an important blood vessel or a gasket. There was his "constipated face", which made him look like he was holding something inside himself that he really wanted to express in some way but felt he couldn't.

There was the determined face which Steve wore when dealing with a perpetrator--usually in a way that wasn't as "by the book", procedurally, as Danny would've liked. Like when Steve took a suspect's fingerprint using his own bloody gunshot wound or he dangled that suspect off a hotel roof to make him talk.

There was the professional, focused face he wore when working with Danny, Chin and Kono, and the HPD. Then there was the face he wore when socializing with Danny, Chin, and Kono. There was the face he wore when dealing with the Governor--that was Steve's "trying to be on my best behavior with an important person" face.

There was also the face--or rather the smile--he wore on occasions when Danny's daughter Grace was in his company or that of the entire Five-0 team. Danny really liked that face a lot.

But the face Danny liked most of all was the face that was reserved only for him, And Steve only wore it on occasions like this.

Occasions when nobody--not the Governor, not perps, not HPD, not Chin, not Kono, not Grace, nobody--knew that they were together. Occasions when they were lying in each other's arms in a dimly-lit bedroom, sweaty, sated, and content in the afterglow of precious, stolen time shared together as the couple they'd become right under everyone's noses.

That was Steve McGarrett's most special face. It was the face of love.
