Mele Kalikimaka [Steve McGarrett]
Mele Kalikimaka [Steve McGarrett] 🎄

Description: Baby McGarrett is due December 25th.
Warnings: labor?
A/N: Day 4 of 12 Days of Christmas!
Y/N had been feeling "ick", as she described it for two weeks. She thought it was just a cold, but her husband, Steve, made her set up an appointment with her doctor.
Steve has decided to go with her, so they both told the rest of the Five-O team they would be in afterwards.
As they sat in the waiting room, Steve's arm around Y/N's shoulders, they talked about weekend plans.
"I think if you're feeling better we should have a couple of beers." Steve says.
"A beer, or a glass of wine. They both sound amazing."
Eventually they were called back and Y/N was examined by the nurse and as always, was asked the question.
"Is there any chance you could be pregnant Mrs. McGarrett?"
Y/N looks at Steve, then back to the nurse.
"Yes."
"Ok, I'll go get you a pregnancy test to take, and then after you're done and the results come back I will send the doctor in."
"Thank you." Y/N says. The nurse leaves the room and she turns to her husband. "Do you really think I could be pregnant?"
"Yeah. We weren't actively trying, but we also weren't using any birth control." Steve replies and grabs her hand. "You know I want to have children with you and now is as good as a time then any other."
"Yeah. It is."
After taking the test and getting the results Y/N and Steve go back to work with smiles on their faces. Everyone was at the table looking into a drug trafficking ring.
Their heads pop up when the door opens and the married couple walks in.
"Hey! How'd it go?" Tani asks.
"Well, I'm not sick." Y/N smiles.
"Ok?" Danny drags.
"She's pregnant. Just a day over two months and the baby is due Christmas Day." Steve looks at Y/N lovingly.
"Oh my god!" Tani exclaims, rushing around the table to give Y/N a hug.
Adam, Danny, Junior and Lou all do "bro" handshakes with Steve congratulating him before moving onto Y/N.
After all of the excitement died down, Danny spoke up.
"I bet you all twenty bucks that baby is born on Christmas Day."
§§§
Y/N was awake bright and early the morning of Christmas Eve. Five to be exact. Their baby girl had been laying on her bladder for the entirety of her last trimester, so like clockwork every thirty minutes she had to pee.
It might also be because she's excited for the Christmas parade. Danny, Charlie, Grace, Mary and Joanie are going, so she is excited to spend time with her family.
"Baby girl wake you up again babe?" Steve asks as he walks down the stairs to see Y/N laying in the couch reading "What to Expect When You're Expecting" with Eddie.
"Yeah. We're excited for the parade." She looked up at her husband with a big smile. Steve chuckled and pressed a kiss to her head before heading into the kitchen.
After spending most of the morning watching Christmas movies they got ready for the parade and left to meet everyone else.
They met Mary and Joanie in the parking lot, then met Danny, Grace and Charlie on the street.
Everyone had been super excited for the arrival of baby McGarrett, especially Charlie, Joanie, and Grace.
"Aunt Y/N?" Charlie asks as he stands in front of her and Steve to see the parade.
"Yeah Charlie?"
"When is my baby cousin going to be born?"
"I think the baby is going to be born tomorrow." Danny says and Mary agrees.
"Yeah she's a McGarrett, tomorrow will be the day for her grand entrance."
"Have you had any contractions?" Steve asks as he adjusts Joanie in his arms.
"Just a few Braxton Hicks here and there. I do have constant pressure in my lower stomach though, so that means the baby is dropping into the birth canal." Y/N says as she rubs her belly with a smile.
§§§
Throughout the parade Y/N had pain in her back, but she figured it was just from standing, so she leaned against Steve and he rubbed her back as good as he could standing up.
At the end the group decided to get brunch, so as Mary was putting her bags in her car, Y/N picked Joanie up off of the ground to put her in the car seat but a pain caused her to stop lifting the toddler.
"Ow. Ow. Ow." She says and puts her hand on her stomach, then she feels something pop and fluid runs down her legs.
"Oh my god. Did your water just break?!" Mary exclaims as she rushes to grab her daughter from Y/N.
Steve, who was putting the stroller in the trunk rushes to his wife's side.
"Yeah. It did, and I'm having a contraction." She grunts.
"Ok. Danny can you go get our hospital bags from our house and drop Eddie off with Tani?"Â Steve asks.
"Yeah. Yeah, of course. Go!" Danny replies excitedly.
Steve helps Y/N into the truck before rushing to his side and starting the vehicle.
"Let's go have a baby!"
§§§
After thirteen hours of labor, Malia Noelle McGarret was born at one thirty-five in the morning weighing seven pounds fourteen ounces and twenty inches in length.
Her parents sat in the hospital bed that afternoon after being cleaned up and sleeping for a bit, with Malia in Steve's arms just staring at her.
"God she's so beautiful." Steve gushes.
"She is. Can you believe she's ours?" Y/N asks quietly.
"We don't deserve her. She's perfect. I don't ever want anything for Christmas again. You cannot top this Y/N. Thank you for giving me my baby girl." Steve says with tears building up in his eyes.
"Thank you for making me her mommy." She kisses him on the cheek as he continues to stare at Malia with adoration.
"Mele Kalikimaka, Malia."

Internal [Kristain ‘Yatesy’ Yates]

Description: Y/N's health condition gets outed on a hot, busy day at Bondi Beach.
Warnings: Cardiac Arrest
Y/N had been feeling dizzy all day. She had heart problems, really, really bad heart problems. Bad enough to get a internal defibrillator. Most people would probably say being a lifeguard isn't good for someone with cardiac issues, but she still pursued the career.
She's been a lifeguard for Waverly Council for three years. The only person to know about her issues was Hoppo. He had to know because of legal reasons, but everyone else was kept in the dark about that aspect of Y/N's life.
"Bondi Central to Blue Rhino. You've got a young man, twenty meters out." Yatesy says over the radio.
Y/N and Yatesy are great friends, well that's what they like to think. Everyone could tell how in love they are, except them.
Yatesy wanted Y/N to come up to the tower because he noticed how she's been acting but the lifeguards were stretched thin and Bondi was busy.
She'd been going back and forth between first aids and incidents in the water all day, with no time to take a breather, let alone any time to inform anyone about how she was feeling.
"I'm going in Yates. He's not looking good." Y/N replies before setting her radio down and grabbing the board.
"You're not looking good either." Yatesy mumbles to himself.
He watches as Y/N hits the water. She starts paddling to the man, but he notices her grab her chest for a second before continuing to paddle.
Y/N finally gets to the man but when she sits up her eyes roll back into her head, going unconscious. Her body falls forward and smacks against the board. The man she went out to rescue clings to the board and starts waving for more help.
Yatesy starts to panic. Normally he is good at keeping a cool composure, but this is Y/N. The woman he's in love with. He grabs his radio and immediately radios out to every lifeguard, even the ones at Tamarama and Bronte.
"Bondi Central to all Waverly Lifeguards. We have a lifeguard down, get an Ambo here quick!"
Yatesy grabs the defibrillator and the other bag of medical supplies. He throws lifeguard protocol out the door and abandons the tower. Hopping in a ATV and speeding to Y/N. By now other swimmers, and surfers have gone over to Y/N. A surfer had brought the man in and the others were trying to wake her up.
Yatesy hits the water and paddles as fast as he can. All he can think is that he might not get the chance to tell her how he feels. He might not get a chance to actually love her.
He stops right next to her and grabs her arm.
"Y/N?!" She doesn't answer, so he puts two fingers to her carotid artery.
Yatesy swears his heart shattered. The pain in his chest, the feeling in his stomach. It was all too much. The tears start rolling down his face. He grabs her from the board and pulls her onto his.
He races back to shore and sees Hoppo, Jesse and Reidy standing there, waiting for them. Yatesy gets off of the board and Jesse pulls him to the side while Hoppo and Reidy pull Y/N up onto the sand.
"She'll be alright mate." Jesse says as he puts a hand on Yatesy's shoulder.
"She didn't have a pulse." Yatesy whispers.
"She'll be alright." Jesse repeats.
Y/N's internal defibrillator goes off, surprising everyone except Hoppo and now Reidy. Her eyes pop open and her hand goes to her chest.
"Y/N you're alright sweetheart, just breathe." She looks up at Hoppo and Reidy who are leaning over her and then tries to sit up when she hears a sob of relief. Reidy stays behind her to keep her steady as she looks at Yatesy.
"Kristain." She croaks. Yatesy walks over and takes Reidy's place behind her.
"I'm in love with you. I know this probably isn't the best time to tell you, but when I saw you collapse I swear my heart fell apart." Yatesy admits.
"I'm in love with you too. I'm ok. I'm sorry I scared you."
Yatesy wraps his arms around her and presses a kiss to her head. "You don't have to be sorry about anything."
Surfing Baby [Dean ‘Deano’ Gladstone

Description: Dean and Y/N take their son surfing for the first time.
Warnings: None!
A/N: This is dedicated to @tinysangel I finally got around to writing for Deano!
"I’ve got it sweetheart!" Dean yells back down.
He finishes packing up the bag and goes back downstairs where Y/N and Jack are in the kitchen. Y/N is packing food and drinks for later while Jack munches on some fruit. Deano puts the bag down on a chair and goes up to his son.
"Alright, you ready to get cleaned up so we can go to the beach?" He asks Jack.
"Yes daddy! Can we go see Uncle Harries?" Jack asks as he gets down from the stool and goes over to the sink to wash his hands.
"Yeah, I’m sure Uncle Harries would love to see his little Jackie." Y/N replies as she finishes putting the rest of their drinks in the cooler.
"Ok, let’s finish cleaning up and then we will get in the car."
§§§
After going to see Harries, Maxi, Whippet, Yatesy and Kerrbox, Jack and Deano were finally getting in the water.
"Alright bud, you’re going to get in front of daddy and I’ll show you what do before you try, ok?" Jack nods and continues to help, or at least try to, paddle out.
Deano wasn’t taking him out too far, knowing Y/N would be upset if he did, but he did take him past where the other kids would stop.
"Now we’ve got to watch for a wave, and make sure we don’t get in the head by a surprise one." Deano explained. After a few minutes of waiting, a wave finally popped up. "Start paddling Jack!"
They start paddling and get to where they can stand up. Deano stands up and pulls Jack up with him. He holds on to Jacks wetsuit and helps him stay steady while they ride the wave in.
While they were out in the water, Y/N was recording them. She wanted to be able to show Jack the first time he ever surfed when he grew up, so she made sure it was a decent video. She cheered for Jack when they got up and she was sure you’d be able to hear her proud screams in the video.
"Mommy! Mommy! I did it! Did you see?" Jack ran out of the water and to his mom. Y/N squatted down to his level and opened her arms.
"Yes baby! I saw! I’m so, so proud of you!" She presses kisses all over Jacks face and he giggles and squirms.
"I want to go again!"
§§§
After another two hours of surfing the beach was starting to empty out, so Maxi decided he wanted to take Jack out for a bit, which Deano and Y/N quickly agreed to, knowing that they could trust Maxi and that they could take a break.
"Look at him, he’s such a little pro!" Deano exclaimed from his spot on the sand beside Y/N.
"Isn’t he? Just like his father." Y/N smiles at her husband and Deano presses a quick kiss to her lips.
"I love him, and you. Life is perfect." Deano sighs.
"I love you both too, but I think I know how to make life a bit more perfect." Y/N says. She looks at their intertwined hands and back up to Deano's curious eyes.
"How?"
"Adding to the family?" Y/N smiles.
"You, you’re pregnant?!" Deano exclaims happily.
"Yeah! I found out yesterday!" Y/N cries.
Deano pulls her into a tight hug, kissing her forehead.
"I love you so much." He whispers. "I can’t believe we’re going to have another baby!"
"We’re going to have another surfing baby."
In The Surf [Adriel ‘Bacon’ Young]

Description: Y/N gets ran over by her best friends boyfriend, Colton, out in the surf, and Bacon has to rescue her, but it’s complicated.
Warnings: Broken bones, gashes.
"You guys ready?" Y/F/N asks as her boyfriend and Y/N stand next to her.
"Uh, yeah." Colton, her boyfriend sighs.
He's definitely not ready. He doesn't know how to surf, but that's not what he told Y/F/N, and Y/N.
"Yeah. Last one to the lineup buys lunch." Y/N says and starts running towards the water. Colton was definitely going to buy lunch, because Y/N's using the rip to send her out.
The swell was great, eight to nine foot waves. You don't get that too often at Bondi.
Y/N made it out first and caught a couple of waves before sitting with Colton while they watch Y/F/N ride a wave in. Then she turns and sees a great set coming in. She starts paddling and so does Colton. Y/N gets up and she's closest to the break, so all of the other surfers back off, except for one.
Colton keeps going and loses balance for a split second, changing the direction of his board and smashing into the back of Y/N's leg and sending her flying before falling off himself, but he gets washed in towards the shore.
Pain radiates through Y/N's leg as she tries to resurface, but a huge wave throws her around before she can get up to breathe again.
Y/N's local. She grew up surfing and swimming here at Bondi, Tamarama, and Bronte. So, she's here quite often and has met a few of the lifeguards after helping a few people stay above water. She definitely didn't need them to rescue her, but when Bacon saw a familiar board bobbing up in down, vertical in the air after the big wave, his heart dropped. Then the board goes back to its original position and she throws her arms over the board and rests her head, but she doesn't get on.
"Hey Bacon, you might have to go in. I think she might've gotten hit by another surfer." Chappo says over the radio.
"Yeah mate, I'm going." Bacon replies.
He takes his pullover off and grabs the board, then starts running. He hits the water and starts paddling. The waves that kept coming were harsh, almost knocking him off the rescue board a few times.
Bacon was hoping that by time he got out to her, she'd still be hanging onto her board, and not under the water.
Finally, after one last huge wave he reached her.
"Y/N?" Her head pops up and she sees Bacon, who she'd met multiple times.
"Hey. I got hit." Y/N says and tries once again to get up on her board. "My left leg hurts like a bitch and I can't get up on the board."
Bacon nods and moves on his board. "Is it alright if I get in and take a look?"
"Be my guest." She laughs and plops her head back down.
Bacon jumps into the water and swims over to her leg. It's bent at a weird angle.
Definitely broken.
He resurfaces closer to her and puts his hand on her shoulder.
"I'd say it's definitely broken. I'll have to support it somehow."
"We will have to ditch my board. It's not going to help at all." Bacon nods and goes back under to free her from the strap.
Then she lets go of her board and grabs onto the blue rescue board. The surfboard starts going towards the shore with the waves.
"Alright I'm going to lift you up on here. It's probably going to hurt." He warns.
"Do what you have to do, I'll be fine." Y/N replies. Bacon nods and grabs onto her thighs.
"Push up from my shoulders." Y/N nods and does as directed. She finally gets on the board but the painful part is coming, laying on her stomach and moving the broken extremity around. Bacon helps her get into position and gets on behind her. "I'll try and be as careful as I can." Bacon says and starts paddling.
The rescue is going smooth, until a big wave pops up and wipes them out and onto the reef, making Bacon lose the board, and causing some pretty nasty gashes and scrapes.Â
"Shit! Are you alright?" Bacon asks as he gets over to Y/N.
"Yeah, I'm good. You?" She asks and scoots herself so she's sitting up.
"I'm fine, just lost the board." Bacon notices how pale she's gotten knows he's got to make a decision soon.
Wait for another lifeguard. Or, carry her so she doesn't get hypothermia and go into shock.
He decides to carry her in, so, he puts a arm under her leg and the other around her back. He hoists her up and starts walking, then another wave hits them, and he falls to his knees, but doesn't let go of her.
§§§
Bacon and Y/N finally make it to shore and Maxi meets them, while Quinno gets a splint and the green whistle ready.
Y/F/N runs up with Colton in tow.
"Y/N what the hell? Where'd you go?"
"She was stuck out in the surf because your boyfriend ran his board into her leg and left her out there." Bacon snaps.
Colton is definitely on his shit list.
"I was closest to the break dumbass. You don't keep going if I've got the wave."
Bacon and Maxi set Y/N in the back of the rhino. They wrap her in towels and blankets while Quinno gives her the green whistle.
After a few breaths of that Y/N's pain slowly starts to go away and she looks at Bacon.
"You're a good guy. Saving my ass unlike King Dickhead over there."
The boys laugh and Y/N just keeps breathing with the whistle.
"Never thought I'd have to rescue you if I'm being honest." Bacon replies as he sits next to her and puts another blanket around her.
"Right? But at least I was in the right place for what I was doing. Swim between the flags. Not at South Bondi, and in Backpackers Rip. That thing is like a freaking ice cream truck or something, because everyone goes straight to it." Y/N says and uses her hands for exaggeration. All of the boys laugh and agree with her.
§§§
Even though the people the boys normally rescue don't show up again, Y/N definitely did, and Bacon got a girlfriend out of it.
All That Matters [Kelly Severide]

Description: Kelly is overprotective, but this time he has a good reason.Â
Warnings: Assault, unwanted advances, cursing.
The Cubs were playing tonight and anytime they played a home game all of Chicago would watch. Some from their homes, some from Wrigley Field, some from bars. This did not exclude the crew from Firehouse Fifty-One. They'd all gathered at Molly's after their shift to watch the game, eat some food and drink.
The bar was packed. Like barely any standing room packed.
Kelly had decided that since Y/N excelled during a challenging call that he would be the designated driver.
Y/N definitely would've blown over the legal limit on a breathalyzer by inning five.
Four shots of tequila and two beers had her stumbling through the crowd on her way back from the bathroom.
Kelly had noticed a guy glancing over at her a lot, but he didn't want to say anything to Y/N because he wanted her to enjoy tonight. He didn't want to start something over nothing again. Maybe the guy was looking at the TV. They were sitting close to it.
Y/N had noticed the guy staring at her too. She didn't say anything to Kelly because she knew how he could get. Anything that would present a threat to her in his book, was immediately taken care of by him. For example, the Chicago Fire Department Gala.
The gala was a fundraiser to raise money for families around Christmas time. A group of guys cornered Y/N and Gabby by the bathrooms. When Kelly saw what was going on, he only saw red. That was until Y/N grabbed his wrist. She was the only person able to bring him back to earth when things got tough.
He's head over heels for that girl.
Y/N was halfway there when someone bumped into her. She didn't think much of it at first, until someone grabbed her forearm.
She turned around and met the face of the guy that she felt staring at her all night.
"Can I help you?" She asks.
"Yeah. You can actually." He replies. "Do a little spin for me sweetheart." He smirks.
"No thanks. I have a boyfriend, and even if I didn't, I wouldn't be interested." She was starting to sober up, because she felt uncomfortable.
"That guy in the CFD shirt? Did he have to buy that to look cool because he's a volly?" He chuckles. "Honey both of us know he can't handle a woman like you." He gives Y/N a sinister smile and her stomach churns.
She looks around Molly's, desperately trying to catch Kelly's eyes, but the he steps up beside her.
"Firehouse Fifty-One, Squad Three Lieutenant Kelly Severide." Kelly grabs his hand and tears it off of his girlfriend. "Can I help you? Or are we going to have a problem because you keep harassing my girlfriend?"
"I didn't do shit, but if you want a problem, I can give you one." The guy sits his can of beer down on the table beside them and swings at Kelly, but, because he's drunk, he completely misses and hits Y/N.
By then Casey, Gabby and Cruz noticed what was going on, and they'd started to make their way over.
Y/N fell to the ground because she wasn't expecting that. Kelly immediately lunges at the guy and tackles him to the floor. He throws punches left and right. Not caring where he was hitting the guy.
Gabby kneeled down by Y/N and helped her to her feet and out the front door, leaving Casey and Cruz to get Kelly.
"Severide! Severide! Stop!" They grabbed his arms and dragged him up to his feet.
"Stop before you kill him!" Casey yells.
Kelly doesn't care. His brain immediately goes to Y/N.
"Where is she? Where's Y/N?"
"Gabby took her outside." Cruz says.
Kelly starts towards the door, pushing past everyone to get to her. Once he gets outside he looks left and then right to find Y/N and Gabby standing by the wall. He rushes to her and turns her to him.
She's got a black eye already forming, a definite bloody broken nose, and tears rolling down her face. Kelly sighs and pulls her to his chest and puts his hand on the back of her head.
"I'm so sorry, baby." Kelly whispers.
"It's ok. I'll be fine."
"No it's not ok. That bastard is getting charges pressed against him, and you are going to get checked out." He says. "I should've went with you. I should've been there earlier."
"You can't predict the future Kelly." Y/N says as she pulls away. "I'm ok. You're ok. That's all that matters."
"That's all that matters."
Heart [Andrew ‘Reidy’ Reid]

Description: Y/N is Reidy's daughter, and she has a heart condition.
Warnings: Cursing? I think that is it.
"Hey Y/N/N wanna race in?" Harries asks with a big, playful smile.
Y/N, Harries and Maxi were all out in the water taking advantage of the beautiful weather. Bondi has been quiet all day and Reidy had brought his favorite, and only, girl down to hang out with her favorite guys.
Y/N Reid was born with Congenital Heart Disease, where her heart has holes in it, and if her heart rate gets too high, she can't breathe.
Her mother didn't want to deal with it, so she left. Leaving Reidy alone with his sick baby girl, but he'd never have it any other way.
Reidy is obsessed with his now, teenage daughter. Y/N is the light of his life and keeps him motivated to be the man he is. She is his favorite person, so that means Reidy is quite protective over her, and when she hangs out with two of Waverley Councils goofiest lifeguards, he has strict rules.
One. Don't go too far out.
Two. Stay away from the twins and flat rock.
Three. Don't go swim in a rip.
Four. Don't overwork herself.
Maxi and Harries love to go out and paddle with Y/N, because she can give them both a run for their money.
"What does the winner get?" Maxi asks.
"Nothing, but maybe a laugh at the losers." Harries replies. The younger two of the three laugh loudly before agreeing.
They made a starting line and counted down from five.
"Five. Four. Three. Two. One!"
They took off paddling as hard as they could, all three of them looking back every few meters to look for waves to speed it up.
Once they’re two hundred meters from shore Y/N's heart starts racing and she starts slowing down. She knew she had to try and slow her heart rate, or else it would be bad.
After stopping for a few seconds and waiting, her heart continues to pick up its pace, so she called out to the boys.
"Guys!" Her voice was quiet amongst the sound of the ocean.
They didn’t hear her.
§§§
Reidy had gone across the road to the locker rooms, and he had told Hoppo to keep an eye on Y/N, so when Hoppo saw Y/N stop and lie her head down on the board, he knew exactly what would happen.
He left Gonzo in the tower and took one of the rhinos down to the waters edge. He didn’t wait and see if she could make it in, he just grabbed the board and went.
He passed Maxi and Harries who seemed confused, and they turned around to see Y/N laying on her board, floating with it.
"Shit! Maxi did she yell for us?!" Harries exclaims while turning around to paddle back out.
"I didn’t hear her!" Maxi replies as he does the same.
Hoppo reaches Y/N and grabs her hand.
"Just breathe. You’ll be alright." He gets Y/N on his board and unhooks the leg rope from her board. He sits there with her for a few moments. Breathing with her and trying to get her to calm down. It works a little bit, but not all the way.
Hoppo has known Y/N since she was a toddler. When Reidy first started working at Bondi he would always bring her around when he couldn’t get someone to watch her, so she’d hang out in the tower with everyone.
All of the lifeguards love having her there. She’s like their little peak of sunshine on rainy days, so when she’d start having trouble breathing like she is now. They’d all be trying to help her and get her anything she wanted or needed, which most of the time was her dad.
When Reidy came back to the tower and saw Hoppo out on the board with his daughter he immediately sprinted down there and made it in time to help her onto the sand.
Reidy sat behind her while Harries got the oxygen mask for her to breathe into.
"Here sweetheart. Breathe into this." Reidy puts the mask over her nose and mouth and lets her breathe carbon dioxide. They all sit by her while Reidy rocks them both side to side and strokes her hair.
After a few minutes her heart rate is in normal range and she feels better.
"You feeling better now?" Hoppo asks.
"Yeah, just tired." Y/N answers and takes the sweatshirt Maxi is handing her. "Thank you guys."
"Don’t thank us. We’d do anything for you, we love you." Harries gives her a bear hug.
"Well, I love you guys too."
