This is the third story in the CSI Melody Jones series. I do not own anything except the characters not on CSI.
"Lidia hurry up it's your last day of school before Christmas break and we're going to be late."
I signed to Lidia then walked back down the stairs. Soon followed by Lidia and my boyfriend who I had dated for around seven months.
"I'm ready."
Lidia signed when she reached the bottom of the stairs. Lidia was having a Christmas party at school so I baked cookies for her to take. Greg and I both had taken off so we could spend the day with Lidia and sleep at a normal time. After the party we were going Christmas shopping Greg and I took separate vehicles. The Christmas party was nice but watching all the kids sign to their parents upset Lidia a little. When we got in the truck Lidia turned to me and signed.
"Can I please call you mommy?"
At Lidia's question my heart was ready to explode I was so happy. I nodded and Lidia leaned over and gave me a big hug and signed.
"I love you mommy."
I could hardly keep from crying as I tried to focus on the rode. When we arrived at the mall Lidia and Greg quickly ran to the CDs. Lidia was looking at a Taylor Swift album that I guessed was for Lindsey. Greg was looking at Jason Alden album that I knew was for Nick. I went to the guys clothing section to find a nice shirt for Tom. I found a T-shirt that said Keep Calm and watch my Sign. When I found Lidia and Greg again they were trying to find something for Warrick. I left them again to go find something for my niece's and nephew. I ended up getting Alicia a pink diamond phone case, Lucia a make up kit, and Tommy a Lego police station since he loved building things. When I found Lidia and Greg they still hadn't found Warrick any thing but had picked out a book on bugs for Grissom and a romance novel for Catherine. Then the three of us went in search to find something for the rest of the people on the shopping list. Wee decided on a cook book for Sara, a light blue dress shirt for Jim, a cd for Warrick, Doc Robbins a coffee cup, and a book for super Dave. Once again we separated so I could pick out Greg and Lidia's gift. I had known for a week exactly what to get them I was just nervous for Greg's reaction.
Greg's Pov
Lidia and I headed to the jewelry store since I knew exactly what I was going to get Melody. I let Lidia help me pick it out and that's when she asked.
"Dose this mean I can call you daddy."
I signed back.
"Yep,but not in front of anyone we know until after I ask Melody."
Then she signed back.
"I love you daddy."
And she gave me a giant hug. Now all I had to do was pick out a gift for Lidia. I decided I would get her a heart locket. When she wasn't paying attention I told the guy behind the counter what I wanted and told him I would pick it up tomorrow.
Melody's Pov
I met Greg and Lidia at the exit and she asked if she could ride with me. I said it was fine so we went to our different vehicles and drove to our apartment. I couldn't wait till Christmas to give them their presents.
Please let me know what you think.
