6. One good turn deserves another (Danny Williams)

One good turn deserves another - (Danny Williams)

Danny “Danno” Williams was not having a good day.  He was stuck in San-Francisco for the evening. Oh, and his bitch of an ex-wife had managed to convince a judge she should take his beloved Grace to Hawaii.  So now his reason for living was going to be six thousand miles away with an ocean between them.

It couldn’t happen.  He had to find a way to get to her.  She would grow up thinking Step-Stan was the only one who cared. That was wrong.

He had no idea how this news equated into finding a bar. It did.  He was going with the tried and tested way of drinking his problems away.  He would wake up tomorrow with a blinding headache and be an adult once more. No one could ask any more from him.  

Danny watched an attractive guy walk into the bar.  Danny gave the guy an appreciative once over.  He didn't know the guy but he knew how to wear a suit.  The suit was worth more than he would ever make in a year.  Then again, that might just be because the guy was so damn attractive.

Danny had never cared about the gender, just how they acted.  He liked them pretty, a little mean and a lot snarky.

“I think you are in the wrong bar my friend.”  Danny was proud of the way he wasn't slurring. It told him he was no way drunk enough. He needed another drink.

Tony snorted, “And with that accent, you are a long way from home.”

Danny shifted, surprised by the observation. “San-Francisco is as good as place as any.”

Tony looked at the guy, short, blonde and packing an attitude that would impress even Gibbs.  It was crazy he liked the guy already.  He wanted to find out more.  After all, tomorrow Tony was going to be stuck on a boat. He'd come out seeking a little fun before his tour started.  If the bar offered a chance for him to forget about Jenny, all the better.

“No, I am exactly where I want to be.” Tony replied, “Anthony DiNozzo.” He offered his hand, and his new friend shook it.

Danny knew of a Tony DiNozzo.  He was a legend in cop circles.  The guy went under in a mob family and brought the whole thing down. You had to be one ballsy guy to manage that.  “You the same DiNozzo who went mob hunting in Philly.”

Tony chuckled, “Small world. You a cop?”

Danny smirked, “Detective Daniel Williams. New Jersey PD.”

Tony looked at the bartender. “Two drinks of whatever he is having.”

Danny was starting to like the guy more. He was gorgeous and generous with his drinks.  “Thanks.”

Tony shrugged it off. He sat by him at the bar.  Tony liked the look of the guy. Still, a bisexual or gay cop had to be careful.  Tony wouldn't push too quick as he didn't want a fist in the face.  All he said in return was, “You looked like a guy who could use a drink.”

“You a shrink now?”

DiNozzo laughed and it sent a shiver down Danny’s spine.  The guy was good and didn’t blink at his sarcasm.  “Just a masters, that I find useful as a Federal Agent, NCIS.”

Danny rolled his eyes, “Let me guess. Fleet weeks so you are shipping out?”

He smirked at Danny, “You are good. Yep,  sixteen week Agent Afloat assignment.”

Escape sounded pretty good right now to Danny Williams.  No, that was the coward's way out.  “Is the boat going towards Hawaii?”

Pretty boy frowned and Danny found himself not liking it.  He liked Tony smiling even if he himself didn’t feel like smiling.  “Don't think so. Pretty specific. So why do you want to head there besides the obvious.”

Danny found himself venting.  He told this stranger everything. All about Rachel, and Grace and the whole bitter affair.  He figured Tony didn't expect it but was glad for the chance to vent.  He felt drained afterwards.  

Tony felt for the guy.  You didn’t need to be good at reading people to know he loved his daughter with all his heart.  It made him even more attractive.  Tony was no stranger to men, and more than a few of the Sam’s he’d dated had not been short for anything. He just let his team-mates draw their own conclusions.

Tony wanted to see where he stood. He was bolder than he would normally be, the idea of being stuck on the boat making him so.  “You know, I was just wondering ... Has the Shrew put you off women?”

Danny rolled his eyes, it was not the smoothest line but he could take pity on Tony.  It helped that he was so cute. “When the men are as cute as you, sure.”

Danny was rewarded with the brightest and truest smile. Damn, he was lost. Tony was handsome but with that smile he was stunning. Danny found his pants tightening just looking.

Drinks turned into more. Turned into a fumble in the alley. Danny was lost in a sea of lust.  This Adonis of a man was a gift from the gods, Danny was sure of it.   He didn’t want it to stop. He said as much. 

Tony wasn’t going to stop unless Danny freaked out.  It happened in the past when a guy wasn’t so sure of their sexuality.  Danny talked with his hands but now he was letting his hands do the talking.  

Tony’s body was singing with how well Danny was playing it.  He was glad that he splurged on the hotel room.   It was as sensuous as hell against his body.  Tony let go and gave himself over to the pleasure.  He collapsed back in a sweaty sated mess.  He pulled Danny close to him. They both deserved a good night of sleep.  

*****

Come morning, Tony woke and stretched.  He didn’t see the points in modesty considering what they had gotten up to the evening before.  

He let Danny sleep and slipped into the shower. He had an hour before he had to report to the ship.  It was a good job that he had picked the hotel for its proximity to the ship.  

He picked his phone up and called his old Captain.  Tony had parted on good terms with the guy and laughed when he’d transferred to Hawaii.  It could come in handy at times.

“Hey Captain, it's Tony.”

“What can I do for you DiNozzo?”

Tony winced as he wasn’t sure just what he should say.  Danny had told him several things in confidence and he wouldn’t break it.  “I’m asking if you have any transfer spots open for Detectives.”

“You asking for yourself?”

Tony chuckled as every phone call, there was always one job offer from the Captain.   He just got it in earlier than usual.  “No Cap, for a friend. His little girl’s mom has just taken them off to Hawaii and he doesn’t want to be so far away.”

There was a pause. Tony wasn’t stupid enough to interrupt the guys’ thinking time. “Give me a name, and give him my number.  I will check him out and talk to him myself.”

Tony could have whooped with joy.  “It's Detective Danny Williams. New Jersey PD.”

The Captain snorted, “Go do what you do DiNozzo.”

Tony was dressed and bounced back into the room.  Danny was only just walking up and even all fuzzy hair and growls face.  He was still damn cute.  “You need to phone this number.”

Danny frowned as he was not awake. “You gave me your phone number last night.”

Tony rolled his eyes, “I know and I will message you when I make port.”

“So what is this phone number?”

Tony tried to play it cool. “It is the number of Captain DeMarco Hawaii PD.  He said to give him a call.”

Now Danny was alert, “How?”

Tony smiled, “I am a sucker for a happy ending. And the Captain used to be my boss I just gave him a call.  The rest is up to you.”

Danny wasn't stunned too often or struggled to find words to express himself.  Today was a rare day. This gorgeous attractive guy had waltzed into his life.  He’d sexed him up pretty good. He’d helped him forget about Rachel and helped him to solve the problem about Grace.  

He surged forward, kissing the life out of Tony.  It was lust and thanks, all rolled into one.  He hated that they would have to part ways after today.  There was a little voice in his head telling him it didn't have to be that way.

Tony laughed, “Be happy and give us a call once in awhile.”

*****

At the start of the year, Danny had not expected to move to Hawaii and start a relationship with a new man.  It was all good.  The USS Seahawk had docked and the crew of the ship was being given liberty.  Tony whilst not Navy was also subject to rest days.

Danny was waiting for Tony to come off the ship.  They had had only one night and many skype sessions.  It wasn't all one way.  It was great, Grace loved Tony. It helped that Grace was aware of what part Tony had played in getting him to Hawaii.

Danny’s life changes were not over.  There was another person who disembarked off the boat at the same time as Tony. A seal by the name of Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett.

Danny would be forever grateful for his relationship later that year. Tony helped Steve get acquitted of all charges thanks to the help from Gibbs, Tony’s boss.
