My dad Steve Mcgarrett

I love you

<hospital>

I was sitting there waiting for my mom to wake up.

Steve and Danny were sitting with me.

Caroline Slater's family. The nurse said

I stood up.

She's awake but she's having some complications. The nurse said

Can I see her. I asked

Yes go ahead and go in. She said

I walked in and sat there.

Mom. I said

Oh Alex baby I'm so sorry. She said

Mom what happened? I asked

Honey I honestly don't know. She said

Mom what were you following? I asked

Alex. She said

<Steve's pov>

I'm going in there. I said

Steve don't. Danny said

Danny she kept my daughter from me for 16 years and I want to know why. I said

Steve she needs time with Alex, and you don't want to upset Alex so if you go in there do not get mad at her at least as long as the kids in there. He said

Fine I won't. I said

I walked in the room.

Steve. She said when she saw me.

Hey Care. I said

Hey Al will you go get me some water? She asked Alex

Yeah. She said

When Alex left Caroline looked at me.

Steve I don't even know what to start with. She said

Start with this is Alex my kid? I asked

Yes she is. I said

So why'd you wait 16 years to tell me about her. I asked

Steve I did it to protect her. She said

How? I asked

You knew what we were involved in Steve I couldn't put her through that, I lost my mom you lost your mom Alex couldn't go through losing both of us. She said

Yet you knew at a certain point my mom wasn't dead. I said

I found out about Shelburne when I was inside the Yakuza and then I met with her and I told her I knew you and when she met Alex she couldn't let her go. She said

Caroline I want to be so mad at you, hell I am mad at you but now that I know about Alex I'm not letting her go. I said

Steve she's not your kid anymore you haven't been with her for 16 years. She said

Caroline I will fight you on this one. I said

Steve if anything happens to me you will take care of Alex but until then I'm not uprooting my daughter once again. She said

She's my daughter too, she might hate me because of what you've said about me but I will change that. I said

That's thing Steve is ive never really said anything because she's never really asked, she knew your name, she knew what you did, she knew what you looked like, hell when she saw you tonight chances are she knew exactly who you were and did it seem to faze her until you said anything? No it didn't. Why? Because Alex doesn't depend on anyone or anything and doesn't care about anyone or anything the girl can take care of herself. She said
