PSL: Sentinel AU

[dann_0]

Danny is Steve's guide. He is still pretty new at it and working with a Sentinel who has some bad experiences. To top if off, while working a case in Portland he finds out that a guide can have more than one Sentinel who is their perfect match.

Picking Danny up at the Airport

[super_seal]

Steve blinks at Danny. "Of course I'm serious." While he does find Danny physically attractive, and has since before his abilities returned, he actually had meant physically Danny is easier on his eyes.

When it comes to attraction though, Steve has always felt a stronger pull from those who connect with him emotionally - which granted for Steve has been very few. He's too accustomed to being used and discarded, when someone values him for him and not for how they can use him, he finds that attractive. It's never mattered to him if that person is male or female.

Keeping his eyes on the pan, he shrugs. "Once people know you're dating Eliot I expect those to stop." And if they don't he will put a stop to them. "You know though, people are going to need to see him. If not meet him a picture with you or something. Otherwise they are likely to think you're making up a cover."

He knows Danny meant his comment as a joke, but those jokes have been happening since the beginning. When he thought about going back to the way they were before, that hadn't been a factor he considered. Putting a stop to the comments would be easy enough, but if others thought they were married by their actions, how was Eliot going to handle seeing them together? How was he going to handle seeing Eliot and Danny together? Then again, if Eliot didn't come to Hawaii, that could solve that issue for them both.

He frowns. "What should I be making a cover for. And I doubt Eliot wants to come here so it will have to be a picture." Danny frowns. "I am not sure what Rachel is going to say about it. I never told her I like guys too. It didn't seem to matter back then because I was only ever going to be with her and afterward... Well, don't want to give her more stuff to be angry about."

He looks over at Steve. "Did you tell Kono and Chin about Eliot? I don't think he wants anyone to know what he is. Apparently his own friends didn't even know until I walked into the picture. Quite litterally."

"It's none of Rachel's business. If Eliot isn't coming here... If Grace won't be seeing you both together is there a reason to tell her at all?" Not that he wants Danny to keep secrets from Grace, but if Grace won't be exposed it might be better to tell her when she's older when Rachel doesn't have as much control.

Steve shook his head. "It's not mine to share." Not that Danny had met someone or that the someone was a sentinel as well. Really there may be no reason for them ever to know the latter. If they ever found it that was up to Danny and Eliot. The only reason he'd agreed to tell them about himself was they needed to know considering their line of work. When Danny wasn't available or if he was injured he may need them to step in to help or avoid detection.

"Iguess not, but I would not have mineded that much about the being with a guy part. I don't think they should know about him being a sentinel. I don't know what to do about Grace, I don't want to hide him but ... I'll have to explain it all eventually. I just haven't figured out how yet. Don't think I will this weekend though. I'll ask him how he want to be introduced to her. Maybe she can come to Portland sometime."

"I doubt Eliot is any more interested in people knowing that he's a sentinel than I am. That really is on a strict need to know basis. For our protection and everyone else's." Listening to Danny, Steve hears the wistful tone more than the words. Turning he puts his hand on his partners bicep and offers a supportive squeeze. "There's no reason for you to hide that part of yourself, Danny, if you don't want to. If you want Grace to know, when you're ready, you should tell her. If Rachel doesn't like it, that's her problem. If she tries to stop you from seeing Grace because of it, then we'll deal with that bridge when we come to it."

"It's a bit different. I've done a lot worse than being quiet about who I like for Grace." he takes a breath. "But I'd like for Eliot to be a part of her life too. I ... I really like knowing that if something happens to me you two will take care of her."

He smiles at Steve. "Not yet, maybe when she is older. It'll be easier to explain to her then"

"I'm sure he knows how important she is to you." You can't spend quality time with Danny and not know his little girl means everything to him, so Steve is fairly confident that Eliot is aware. "I'm also certain that you guys will work something out. Like we did." Accommodating the way they normally lived for when Grace was here had never been a hardship for Steve. He loved having Grace in the house and the small changes were more than worth having her presence in their home. Having Danny that much happier and whole played a huge part into that as well.

Giving Danny's bicep a final squeeze, he nods and focuses back on the eggs. They're almost done. "You'll find the right time. And, when you do, she'll understand and be accepting of it. You raised her right, Danny."
