New Beginnings - A Steve McGarrett Fanfic

Mainland, New Jersey

Third Person

Back home at the prison, a man that Natasha hoped she would never see again, was being released. After spending four years inside because of her, he was now free to get even.

Stepping out of the large, bared gates of the prison, with the only possessions that he now owns, he made his way over to the parked car across the road. Climbing into the passenger seat, he heaved a huge sigh of relief, "man, it's good be out. Those four years were rough, but it gave me a lot of time to think about her."

"Well, then you might want to know that she left New Jersey yesterday." His companion mentioned as he handed him a file.

Inside the file were surveillance pictures and credit card receipts. As this old acquaintance looked over the information, taking longer to look at the pictures. After reading over the receipts, a small grim smile appeared on his lips.

"Looks like I'm going to Hawaii."

Again, Tasha found herself sitting in Steve's office waiting for the others to return from their sting operation when her phone rang. She smiled when she saw the ID on the screen.

"Hey partner! How are you doing?"

"Don't hey me, miss."

Wow! What's eating him? Jackson was her best friend and the best partner she have ever asked for, "what? What did I do?" she asked frowning at the tone in his voice.

"What?! You just up and left without a word. Where are you?"

"I'm sorry Jax, but I have to get away for a while. I'm fine, I'm in Hawaii."

"Hawaii? What are you doing over there?"

"I needed to clear my head, so I thought I'd come and see family and friends. You remember me talking about my brothers' best friend, Danny Williams?"

"Uh-huh. So, when are you coming home?"

His voice lost that harsh tone and he sounded concerned, worried even. "Jackson, what is it? What's wrong?"

It was silent on the other end of the line for a few moments, "Jax." The blonde pushed, sitting forwards in her seat.

She heard him sigh before he answered, "um, he's back Tash. He was released today."

Tasha froze as soon as the words left his mouth, she was so shocked that she had to tighten her grip on the phone to keep it from slipping from her hand.

"Tash! Tash are you there?" Jax's voice called through the phone brought her back to earth. She swallowed the lump in her throat, sitting up straight in her spot on the sofa.

"Yeah, yeah I'm here," she told him, trying to keep the quiver in the voice back, "um... where is he now?" she asked trying to calm her nerves.

"As of right now, he's still in New Jersey. I'll keep you updated."

Tasha took deep breath and released it, "thanks Jax. I'll be in touch."

"Take care, okay. Be safe."

After saying our goodbyes, they hung up and Tasha dropped her phone in her lap, "it's okay, you're okay. He doesn't know where you are. Don't get ahead of yourself." She told herself as she tried to slow down her quickened heart.

After a few moments to calm down, Tasha glanced out of the office windows and saw Danny, and Steve walk in. Putting a smile on her face, she stood up, and opened the door and stepped out just as Chin came out of his.
