A/N: Only thing I got to say is I don't own Hawaii, Nick Stokes Or CSI, do own the T-shirt Katie is wearing along with everything else and Katie to get technical. The plot too is mine. Another A/N to follow at bottom. I feel like I should say I'm sorry for so much diaglogue and not much details but how much more could I give when they're on the phone?
I know that my face
Is only too familiar to your sleep
I can see it in your eyes
Come Here Boy – Imogen Heap
For the better part of two weeks, Nick Stokes would receive a phone call at approximately the same time every night at 8pm.
"I don't think I have set an alarm this week, you call promptly at 8"
"You didn't want to sleep in did you? I can call back"
"Well lets see I can sleep longer, dream of you or I can talk to you Hmm… I'll take talking with you"
"Aww…always the charmer"
"Do you know how much longer you're going to be?" he asked sitting down on the couch
"A week at most" the truth was she would really be done tomorrow when the two parties signed everything and was filed away. She was lying because she had something planned for the end of the week.
"I don't know which I want to do more fall asleep beside you or be inside of you"
"I can try and move things along more quickly but it's doubtful"
"I know work's important"
"This work is bring home a six figure sum"
"Have I told you recently that I love your work?"
"Very funny, its being put away"
"Not even a little?"
"No" she said firmly the money she was making was being put away for something special
"We do have a wedding to pay for do we not?"
"Oh ya"
"So how's work?"
"Same old same old, I solve cases and the bad guy goes to jail. How's yours?"
"Very much the same, I've been thinking about starting up my own practice"
"This isn't the part where you say that you love it there and want me to move there is it?"
"No of course not, although…I'm only kidding, as much as I want to deny it, I miss Vegas, and I could make a killing, it may be the city for marriages but it's also the city for divorce too"
"And that's why you and your sister make a killing, she plans the wedding and you handle the ending"
"Exactly, do anything interesting, seeing as how you have the whole house to yourself?"
"Nope but I did have a dream though"
"A dream, it doesn't involve you and two other women in a hot tub does it?"
"No actually it was of our wedding"
"Did you like the dream?"
"Ya it's been one of my better ones"
"Do tell" Katie took off her shirt and bra changing into a t-shirt and laying on the bed, the pants could wait to be changed.
"It was just friends and family, we were outside the wind was blowing softly and you had decided against the big wedding dress and wore something silky that hugged your every curve" she glanced over to the white dress hanging up pretty close to what he was describing " your hair was down, in waves with a flower in your hair and you carried only one orchid"
"What were you wearing?" she asked since he hadn't said one thing about it
"I was wearing a gray suite with a blue stripped tie" she reached for the pen and paper sitting on the nightstand besides her writing down the details he was giving her.
"We said our own vows, nothing too corny of course but they were meaningful and we kissed, everyone clapped and we were announced for the first time as Mr. and Mrs. Stokes"
"It sounds like it was a good dream" she cleared her throat, she was all choked up that their wedding was something he dreamed about, that it was a fantasy of his.
"That reminds me, has anything came in the mail for me?"
"A few things actually, your cell bill, I'm assuming your last paycheck, junk mail"
"Hmm"
"You expecting something?"
"Ya it was mailed out a few days ago, just let me know when it comes in"
"Will do"
"I should let you go so you can get ready for work"
"Do we have to hang up?"
"No I just know how long it takes for you to get ready is all"
"You're right we should say goodbye"
"See I'm always right" she stated mater-of-factly
"Yes dear"
"Have fun at work and remember you can call me at any time"
"I know. Love you"
"Love you too"

Both parties hung up the phone, Nick moving off the couch to get ready for work, Katie moving off the bed to make another phone call picking up the business cards the concierge had gotten for her.
TBC Of Course
A/N: You're probably thinking why would Katie starting calling places at 8 o'clock at night but Hawaii or Honolouo where she is, is 3 hours behind Vegas. I did do my research. So it would only be 5 there.
