Studying Danny was dangerous, touching him a gateway drug.
Danny wasn’t … he didn’t, as far as Steve had always known, anyway. His new issue was those buried, previously unacknowledged feelings he had for his partner went beyond a firm appreciation for Danny’s skills as a cop into a more personal category and had switched on hard. Now he couldn’t tolerate the thought of hurting Danny just to protect himself. He was vaguely horrified now to take stock and find himself wanting. Some defense mechanisms were warranted; this one might have been at some earlier time in his life and career but not anymore. He didn’t have to self-impose the don’t ask, don’t tell. He also wasn’t sure he could stuff it all back in, even if he wanted to do that. And he didn’t, not now that his frontal lobe was fully on board. For all they’d been through and for all he’d walked them backwards, that wasn’t an option. He was going to have to deal.
That led him to the third thing, the biggest thing, and that was Danny. It hadn’t taken long after Steve had started deliberately changing his mannerisms that Danny’s taciturn trend of the past few days weakened. Though some of his returning glances were inscrutable, Danny fairly leeched onto Steve’s attention and relaxed into something more like his usual self. Maybe a little softer, something about his eyes shining familiar. He didn’t know what that meant, if it meant anything. Maybe it did. He was confused. This day, on the whole it had been a confusing mess.
