Fic: Before Your Love 1/4 (Hawaii Five--0, Steve/Danny, NC-17)

Author's Notes: I stumbled upon sirona_gs's Hawaii Five-0 Christmas Troupe Fest and immediately had an idea for willow_fae_20's prompt (but wasn't able to complete it in time to post to the actual fest) which is: "I'll Be Home for Christmas" Steve gets reactivated to the SEALs and barely makes it home in time for Christmas. Goes AU after Kiʻilua. Hold mouse over highlighted areas for translation.
Summary: Steve gets reactivated just as he and Danny begin to explore their feelings for each other.
Warnings: Supposed character death.

( Exiting the restroom, I find Catherine waiting for me. I envy her the ability to hide her grief at this moment and feel a flash of anger that she's able to present a calm face to the world due to both her military training and the fact that she's had several days to grieve. )
