Description: sequel to Déjà Vu, that's all I'm going to say. CSI with Criminal Minds it's a crossover.
It has been 5 years since Greg was kidnapped, buried alive and given birth to their most beautiful daughter Aleena. Now here they are with their baby girl, who was now 5 years old and heading out to Chicago to visit Greg's family. It was close to thanksgiving and they had planned to spend thanksgiving with his family. Greg had just packed the last of Aleena clothes along with his when Nick came into the bedroom, smiling nonstop at his husband and daughter.
"What?" Greg asked smiling back at him. Nick shook his head coming out of his daze.
"Hmmm...? Oh nothin' . . . it's just I love you both so damn much" Nick stated as he walked up to Greg pulling him to him and kissed him with so much love he then turned his attention to the little girl who was sitting on their bed.
She reached out her arms for him. "Daddy" she stated. Nick smiled lifting her up.
"Hey pumpkin" Nick cooed as he kissed her forehead. Picking up his bag, Greg grabbed his as well then turned to face one another. "You ready love? And is the booster seat already in the car?" Nick asked turning to him with their daughter in his arms.
Greg nodded. "Yeah, I put it in there before I packed our clothes, so let's get outta here before Ecklie decides to cancel our trip we worked so hard to earn." Greg said as Nick nodded in agreement and headed for the car outside to drive them all to the airport.
"What do you say sweetheart, ready to go see grandma Fran, uncle Derek, aunt Sarah and aunt Desiree?" Nick asked. Aleena looked at him then smiled brightly as she nodded in excitement.
"Yay! Gwamma" Aleena shrieked in delight. Nick and Greg chuckled at her mispronounce of Grandma.
As Nick placed Aleena in the car, he fastened her in then shut the door. He turned around to see Greg staring at them with unshed tears in his eyes. He got worried as he walked up to his husband.
"Greg? Are you alright darlin'?" Nick asked just as Greg nodded back.
"Yeah, I was just admiring how beautiful our little girl is that came from my body. She's growing up so fast and I have a wonderful husband who loves me. I feel like the luckiest man alive!" Greg stated happily. Nick smiled big as he gathered the young man in his arms and held him.
"Me too. I love you too" Nick whispered then broke apart when they heard their daughter yell out.
"Come on daddy, Poppa we're gonna be late!" Aleena yelled out. They laughed shaking their heads and got in.
Soon they were well on their way. When they arrived at the airport they checked in, put their suitcases up so they could be checked and loaded then headed for the gate. Soon they were sitting on the plane. Nick sat behind Greg as Aleena sat by the window beside Greg she was bouncing happily and excitedly.
"Aleena sit down and behave" Nick said firmly. She turned to him.
"But daddy..." She started, but one look from Nick stopped further argument she sighed and nodded "Yes daddy" Aleena obeyed and sat down. Greg turned to him and frowned a little.
"What?" Nick asked.
"Nick let her have a little fun! She's excited about going to see her grandmother" Greg said. Nick sighed.
"I know Greg, but you know the plane is not a place for her to bounce around, but I guess it'll be ok for a bit" Nick said that earned a huge smile from Greg and a big kiss from his daughter and he couldn't help but give in as he chuckled and sat back. "But Aleena don't be jumpin' too high or kick the seats ok? And when the plane starts to take off you need to be seated with a seat belt on, understood?" Nick stated.
"Yes daddy" Aleena happily answered as she bounced a little bit. Then she turned to Greg. "Thanks Poppa" he nodded and smiled.
"Ya know she gets her energy from you" Nick stated, but Greg didn't bother to hide his agreement with a smile. He chuckled and smiled back.
As Nick sat back a stewardess came by offered them a pillow. They took three, one for each of them then one of the passengers turned to them with a smile.
"She is a cute little girl" he stated.
They both looked over to him. He looked oddly familiar to them and they had a feeling they should know him, but they just couldn't put their finger on it so they shrugged it off and smiled.
"Thank you sir! She's our pride and joy" Greg stated proudly. He chuckled and smiled fondly at them then his smile turned into a full blown grin.
"Well she should be, after all she looks just like you Greg" He said.
Both Nick and Greg snapped their heads towards him, their eyes widened. They knew he looked familiar he was Paul Barnett he had somehow changed his looks making it hard to recognize him. As Greg stared in shock, Nick immediately placed a protective hand on his shoulder giving the man who caused Greg so much hurt and pain the death glare.
"I don't know how you got out of prison, but you had better stay away from my husband and daughter!" Nick hissed angrily, while keeping his voice low. The man only smiled then turned.
"What? I'm Just enjoying a nice little vacation is all. Making them believe you've changed has its advantages. Gives you an early release for good behavior" He snickered then went back to reading.
Greg couldn't believe this. His day was going so well then this happened. The one man who he thought he would never have to see again was sitting right beside him and it frightened him to no end. It was like going back in time 5 years when he first encountered the man. His name was Paul Barnett he had a prior at the time he kidnapped and buried Greg. Soon the plane was taking off. All through the plane ride Nick couldn't sleep, not with that bastard sitting beside his husband and daughter as he kept an eye on the man. He turned his attention to Greg who fidgeted in his seat. Nick placed a hand on his shoulder causing him to jump a little as he squeezed it for reassurance.
"Don't worry babe! He won't get near you, I won't let him" Nick said. Greg nodded slowly; he was pale and shook a little. Nick swore under his breath, "Fu...I mean darn him" Nick stated as he saw Greg looking at him.
"Nice save on the swearing" Greg smiled. Nick smiled back.
They settled back into their seats and stayed silent the rest of the way. They stayed awake while Aleena slept on. Greg looked over at her and smiled. He stroked her long blond hair from her face. She looked so much like an angel then he settled back into his seat. Several hours later the announcer came on.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, we are now descending into the Chicago airport. Please put your trays upright and fasten your seat belts. Thank you for flying southwest airlines and have a pleasant day" he said then hung the intercom up.
Greg reached over and shook Aleena getting her awake a little so he could fasten her seat belt. Once that task was done he allowed her to go right back to sleep. Soon the plane landed as both Nick and Greg stayed in their seats allowing that...that...monster to get off first. Finally they were the last ones off as they rushed through the airport to the baggage claim. They grabbed their bags and headed out the door at lightning speed. Once outside, they both spotted Derek standing there with a smile as Aleena bounced wanting down, so Greg put her down allowing her to run to her uncle.
"Uncle Dewek, uncle Dewek" Aleena called as she ran to him he lifted her up happily.
"Hey little one! How's my favorite niece doing?" Derek asked.
"Derek she's your only niece" Greg pointed out and Derek grinned.
"Exactly, that's why she's my favorite" Derek exclaimed. They shook their heads as Derek put Aleena in the booster seat buckling her in.
Greg turned his head towards the terminal in time to see Paul exiting the building. He kept staring at him with that sick grin on his face. Greg quickly turned around he grabbed a hold of Nick who turned to him.
"Let's go! I wanna get out of here" Greg quickly stated as he got in the car in a hurry.
Derek looked at him then to Nick who shrugged pretending to not know what was going on as he too got in. Once they were settled, they soon drove off towards home. Derek looked over at his brother and could tell something was wrong.
"Greg, is everything alright?" Derek asked. Greg nodded.
"Yeah I'm fine. Just excited about going home for thanksgiving is all" Greg said. Derek didn't buy it, but he let it go.
Derek pulled up to the house as they got out. Nick dragged his daughter from the back, cradling her in his arms as both Derek and Greg took the bags they headed inside where their momma was waiting. As they entered she greeted them all with a smile.
"Derek, I'm glad you're back go help your sister she needs help right now! Greg, Nick good to see you both" Fran smiled brightly as she took her baby into her arms and hugged him then she turned to Nick doing the same, but careful of her granddaughter as she jumped joyfully in her father's arms.
"Gwamma, Gwamma" Aleena yelped joyfully. She smiled at her taking her in her arms.
"And how is my beautiful granddaughter?" Fran asked kissing her forehead.
"I'm ok gwamma!" Aleena said. Fran chuckled then kissed her again setting her down as she ran into the living room to go see her aunts.
Nick and Greg walked into the living room where they saw a group of people sitting there talking. They assumed they were Derek's friends and husband. Aleena ran to her aunts calling them out as they turned.
"Aunt Sawah, Aunt Desiwee" Aleena yelled jumping into their arms as they welcomed her.
"Aleena! And how is our beautiful niece?" they both asked. She smiled.
"I'm ok!" Aleena answered.
"My goodness look how you've grown! What are you now 4?" Sara asked Aleena shook her head.
"No I'm 5 silly" Aleena stated giggling. That earned a chuckle from Greg.
"Well one things for sure you look just like both of your daddies and you have both of their beautiful eyes" Desiree said Aleena blushed and looked down.
"Thank you" then she turned to the group who was looking at her as she smiled and giggled.
Aleena was about to open her mouth when she heard a throat clear she looked back at her poppa who gave her that look. As her father came up behind him she immediately knew that look as she turned back to the group she was about to talk to and addressed them as she curtsied.
"Hello kind sirs and ladies, my name is Aleena Renee Sanders-Stokes daughter of Nick Sanders-Stokes and Greg Sanders-Stokes and it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance" Aleena said as she continued to curtsy.
Nick stood with his mouth hung opened as Greg smirked. Nick was shocked he couldn't believe how well his daughter had manners when addressing others with such politeness. He looked over at Greg.
"Wha? Huh? How...but how did you...?" Nick stuttered not knowing what to say as Greg smiled.
"It's called patience dear! Remember that" Greg said then he turned back to see what would happen as did Nick.
The group who Aleena was addressing quickly closed their mouths as they smiled. Hotch was the first to speak.
"Hello Miss Sanders-Stokes my name is Aaron Hotchner, but it's ok if you call me Hotch" Hotch said as he shook her little hand. She smiled and moved to the next person.
"Hello my name is Jennifer Jareau, but you can call me JJ" JJ said happily. She nodded and moved to the next person sitting next to her.
"My name is Emily Prentiss, but you can call me Emily" Prentiss said. She nodded.
"My name is David Rossi, but you can call me uncle David if you want" Rossi stated as he spoke up. She looked at him and smiled then moved to the next person.
"My name is Penelope Garcia, but you can call me Aunt Penny if you want" Garcia said smiling. She nodded then looked at the last person. He opened his mouth to talk when Aleena jumped into his arms.
"You married to my uncle Dewek?" Aleena asked politely. He nodded. "So can I call you uncle too?" She sweetly asked. He nodded with a smile.
"Of course you can sweetheart. My name is Spencer Reid, but you can call me Uncle Reid if you want" Reid said. She nodded and hugged him gently.
Aleena stepped back as she looked at the group. She smiled brightly making Nick gasp loudly as they looked at him he turned to Greg.
"My word! I never noticed this before, but Aleena's got your smile, sunshine" Nick said. He nodded then turned back to Aleena as she continued to smile.
They all settled in for the evening, ready to start there thanksgiving get together, but what they didn't know was the figure lurking across the street with a smile on his face. He looked on as he walked away mumbling to himself.
"Soon Greg, soon..." with that he disappeared into the shadows as the sun sank coating the city in darkness.
