It's been one hell of a long day and a half. Danny's been retracing his steps for so long that he feels like this ought to have a case file, but he's found out just enough information to know that he'd acted like a real jackass the day before and somehow, he got the idea to chop the hell out of his hair. He's been left with a shaved head the likes he hasn't had since his early twenties and while it's not the end of the world, it's one of those things that he would've at least liked to do when he was aware he was doing it.

When he made sure Savannah was settled away, Danny headed back for the house, grabbing a bottle of wine from the Hub as he went, a blanket, and a bunch of cookies from the bakery, making a spot on the beach with the dog. He's watching the tide come in, trying to eat and drink away the day while he ignores the real regret -- a part of him, after all, just wanted to spend a quiet evening in with Steve, but somehow that never happened. He still doesn't even know how that's possible.

He rubs a hand over his head again, getting used to the lack of hair. It'll grow back brighter, bleached by the sun, and in about six weeks no less (given that it's mostly gel that does the trick). Until then, he's probably going to develop the bad habit of rubbing it, more than a little.

Steve feels partly guilty in the aftermath of Valentine's Day, if only because he's almost positive he managed to have a hand in Danny's drunken decision to shave his hair off. If the stories are right, it's what he spent his day walking around attempting to encourage, but he can't for the life of him understand why.

He doesn't have to look very far past the hut when he heads out in search of Danny, and walks right up to take a seat next to him on the beach, one hand cupping the back of Danny's head as he leans in to press a kiss to his temple.

"If it makes you feel any better, I'll shave too," he replies, gently running his thumb along the shell of Danny's ear.
newkindofcop: (fondness.)

"Nothing, as far as I know," Steve replies, reaching out to run his hand over that smooth head, feeling where the hair has already started to grow back. "But it's hair, Danno - it'll grow back, and it'll be just as nice as it was before."
newkindofcop: (close.)

"Danny." Steve has to chuckle a little bit, shifting over to sit behind Danny, drawing him back against his chest as he notches his chin on his shoulder, cheek nudging along his. "You do realize this was one in a long stream of many, many Valentine's Days."
newkindofcop: (intense.)

"Next year? Yeah, maybe. Could happen," Steve replies, hiding his smile behind Danny's back. "You know, it's sweet that you think it's such a hallowed day and all, but no one said we couldn't celebrate belatedly."
newkindofcop: (partners.)

"You know, you're kind of adorable right now when you're this pouty," Steve replies, leaning back on his hands while he keeps his legs on each side of Danny's hips like a human chair.
newkindofcop: (happy.)

"Looks like you've got the start of all of that right here," Steve replies, keeping his legs right where they are in the wake of Danny's attempts to swat them away. He leans forward again, slipping his hands up underneath the blanket to run over Danny's hips, pushing a kiss to the slight hollow above the back of Danny's neck. "And maybe the start of some of those activities too," he adds lowly, flicking his tongue against Danny's earlobe.
newkindofcop: (sincere.)

"I love the hair," Steve promises, running his hand over it again, feeling the fuzz tickle against his fingertips. "Almost as much as I love you, alright? You got that?"
newkindofcop: (tilt.)

Steve sighs heavily, audibly, his fingers pressing deep into the base of Danny's skull as he proceeds to take advantage of the lack of hair, giving him a deep scalp massage. The question is unavoidable at this point, but he's really been hoping to hold off on his answer for a little while longer, and he turns his head away to mutter, barely audible. "Superman costume."
newkindofcop: (curious.)

Steve grimaces briefly, but there's no taking it back now that the confession is out there. "Just the suit - and I have glasses, Danny," he adds pointedly, not really sure what Danny is trying to suggest by mentioning it.
newkindofcop: (hug.)

"It's a sign of age, Danny, I don't know how sexy it really is," Steve replies, shrugging absently, but he settles in to rest his chin on Danny's shoulder again, exhaling softly. "I told you I like it."
newkindofcop: (slow smile.)

"You know you're only proving my point further about the whole 'one in a long line of Valentine's Days' thing, right?" Steve replies, tucking his face in against Danny's shoulder as he breathes him in, nose nudging through the cotton of his t-shirt. "Mr. McGarrett-Williams."
newkindofcop: (partners.)

"It's need-to-know," Steve promises, absently rubbing a hand over the breadth of Danny's chest. "And you are the only one who needs to know at this point in time."
newkindofcop: (Default)

"That a little something like a shaved head isn't going to stop me from hauling you off to our bed and giving you a proper Valentine's Day, even if it's belated," Steve replies, resting his palm over Danny's chest, above his heart.
