Everyone starts to arrive and the food is almost done.
When Danny, Maria, and Grace show up Misty runs out to meet them and tell Maria about what happened that day. Misty spots Grace and smiles.
"Well who is this little cutie." Misty says.
"My name is Grace and who are you?" Grace asks
"My name is Misty. Tell me Grace did you know that Steve has a beach in his back yard." Grace nods
"Well would you like to go swimming with me and Kono? She was gonna tech me some cool water tricks."
Grace's eyes light up and she looks at her dad.
"Can I Danno."
Danny seeing this as a chance to spend more time with Maria nods his head yes, Misty picks up Grace on her back and they run towards the back of the house.
Maria laughs
"That's Misty for you she loves little kids, she gets along great with Kiana"
Danny and Maria just stand around then a shy smile gets on her face.
"I guess we should let the others know were here." Danny says
The two walk through the house and into the backyard, the food could be smelled from the kitchen.
"Hey about time you guys got here, I thought we were gonna have to go and look for you." Emily laughs
"Hey who is that little girl with Kono and Misty?" Justin asks
"Oh that's Danny's daughter Grace." Steve says.
"She looks like the same age as..." Emily cuts off as she looks at Maria.
She could tell the girl missed her daughter. Not feeling hungry Maria heads down to the beach and starts walking down it.
"Is there something we missed?" Misty asks as they pass Maria on the way back up to the house.
"Maria's having a hard time with out Kiana, she hasn't been this far from her since the accident. That was 3 years ago. Emily says
"Hey Danny why don't you go give her company." Steve says to his partner who he thought was behind him, instead he is already almost to were Maria is.
The two just sit on the beach in silence. Maria leans her head on Danny and they both just stare at the setting sun, after while Maria leans up and smiles.
Thanks Danny" She says and kisses him on the cheek. She gets up and dust the sand off her jeans, Danny does the same thing only when he's done he grabs Maria's arm and pulls her in for a kiss. He kisses her long and hard and she kisses him back.
When they break apart their both smiling and they both walk back to where everyone is.
When they get back everyone is talking and having a good time. Danny walks over to a sleepy Grace and puts her in his lap. Maria walks over to Misty and talks to her and Kono.
At 9:30 the NM team is starting to yawn.
"Looks you guys could use some sleep." Chin says "Good thing it's the weekend, we don't work them."
Everyone says goodbye and Maria gives Danny her cell number maybe they could do something together with Grace tomorrow, or just together.
IN THE CAR ON THE WAY TO THE HOTEL
"So Maria are you going to be able to make it the rest of the month." Emily asks
"I think I will" Maria says smiling
When they get back to the hotel Emily tells her team that they will have a seven am workout in the weight room and a quick jog afterwards. Then they can do whatever they want. Till its time to meet up with the Five-0 team in the evening.
They all go into their rooms and crash for the night. Only to be woken up at 7am for their workout. When they all get down stairs Maria, Misty and Justin are surprised to see the Five-0 team there ready to work out to even little Grace.
"For the run on the beach Danny and Grace stay behind, Danny because of his knee and Grace because she wouldn't be able to keep up.
When they get back Grace and Danny have a sort of breakfast waiting for them.
Before the Five-0 team heads home to clean up Danny pulls Maria aside.
"Would you like to have lunch with me today." Danny asks
"Sure what about Grace is she coming to?" Maria asks.
"No she wants to go to a friends so I'll be dropping her off as soon as we get cleaned up." Danny says.
"Ok I'll meet you here about 12:30 Kono wanted to take us girls shopping, and Chin is taking Justin to have a better look at your computers at the office." Maria says.
I'll see you at 12:30 then." Danny says and leans in and kisses her lips.
Maria rushes up stairs and quickly showers and changes into a flowing green skirt and blue top. When she is done she rushes to Emily's room and grabs her when she opens the door and pulls her to Misty room.
"What's going on Mia." Emily asks the nervous girl.
"I think I'm in love." Maria blurts out. A knock at the door and Misty lets in Justin, Chin and Kono. Justin kisses Emily goodbye and he leaves with Chin.
"Come in and make yours self comfortable Kono." Misty says then she turns back to Maria.
"Now who are you in love with Maria."
Maria looks around the room at all the girls.
"Danny. Last night on the beach he kissed me and today he kisses me again and wants to take me out to lunch."
All the girls make a loud high pinch scream kinda.
"I knew it from the way he was looking at you last night." Kono said.
"You deserve someone who will treat you good to Mia after what that asshole did to you." Emily says "Although you did get the most beautiful thing out of him."
The girls gather their things and take off to shop and look around the island mainly on foot.
