“I’m…mmm…uhmmm…blah…yeah.”
Steve looked over at Danny, a world of confusion reflected on his face. “What? What are you trying to say?”
“Never mind,” Danny said with a yawn, reaching over for another Mounds bar. They had been awake for just over 48 hours and Danny thought he could be excused for mumbling a little at this point. It was nearly unbearably hot in the Land Rover they were using to stake out the Lucite factory, no sign of life as far as they could tell. But Steve refused to give up, repeatedly telling Danny that Wo Fat would emerge eventually.
“Another hour then we’ll go,” Steve conceded. But he knew they were close this time and he didn’t want to miss this chance.
“I hope you have an Australian masseuse on speed dial,” Danny said, shifting again. But it was no use. His muscles felt permanently cramped into the shape of the car seat. “Because I’m not sure I can walk.”
“I know a better way to work out the kinks than a massage,” Steve said.
“No. I am never having sex with you again. Never.”
“Okay,” Steve agreed, making Danny frown at him even more.
“Okay he says. Like he’s not the one who 2 days ago decided we were getting married. Now he’s decided he doesn’t care if we never have sex again.”
“Just because you are never having sex again doesn’t necessarily mean I’m not,” Steve said, barely suppressing his laughter.
“I hate you so much,” Danny said. “You can call Kono and Chin and Grace and half of Oahu and tell them I am not marrying you. Not when we get back. Not ever.”
“Okay,” Steve repeated, reaching over for Danny’s hand and kissing his palm.
“What? What is that you’re doing? I just said I hate you. I am not going to marry you. And you kiss my hand?”
“Mmm…” Steve said, sucking on Danny’s fingers. “Chocolate.”
“Stop,” Danny said softly. “Stop doing that.”
“No,” Steve said. “I will get you a massage when we get back. And I will buy you the biggest steak the restaurant serves. Will you marry me then?”
“I’ll take it under advisement. Acceptance is pending.”
“You let me know now,” Steve said with that smile which lit up his entire face. As though there was any chance Danny was really going to refuse to marry him.
“Can we please go? No one has entered or left the entire time we’ve been here,” Danny said, hoping he sounded less whiny to Steve than he did to his own ears. “I want a shower and to sleep in a bed and eat something besides half melted candy bars.”
“All right,” Steve agreed, starting the engine. “I guess my contact was mistaken.”
“We’ll call Chin and Kono and see if they have any updates on his location,” Danny said, reaching over for Steve’s hand. “I’m really sorry we didn’t find him.”
“Me too. But this isn’t over.”
“I know, babe. I know.”
