As Calleigh Duquesne and Eric Delko stepped off the airplane.
"Oh my god! Horatio wasn't kiddin' when he said this place was beautiful just after Christmas!"
Eric had been called back early to go to a conference in Vancouver, BC, Canada with Calleigh. Of course hearing he'd be going with Calleigh - the girl of his DREAMS, that he could never have - he agreed. After all, he hadn't had a chance to spend time with her in a long time (because of Jake, who then went and broke her heart - again! What a bastard!) Anyway, this weekend and a bit will be for workshops and the two of us.
"Hey Cal, isn't that your bag?" he asked, pointing towards a light green suitcase with a pink ribbon around the handles.
"Oh yeah, good eye Eric." She said winking at you playfully. He already had grabbed his bags, a navy blue duffle and a briefcase as a carry-on.
"Well if that's all," you state," let's get to the hotel."
All of a sudden out of nowhere you here "Calleigh?!"
"Oh my god Sara!"
"SHREEK" was all you could hear as Calleigh dumped her bag - which he picked up.
"Calleigh my god it's been forever. What are you doing here for?" said Sara Sidle.
"Oh, I'm here for a conference. You?"
"Same! If were at the same hotel I hope we get rooms next to each other!"
"Oh Sara this is Eric, my co-worker. Eric, this is Sara, an old friend of mine, Sara who's this?" gesturing toward Greg.
"This is Gre-"
"SANDERS?!"
"DELKO?!"
"Holy shit man, it's been forever! What happened to you?"
"I transferred to the Las Vegas crime lab. You still in Miami?"
"'Course!"
"Well I guess you two know each other." Calleigh said in a slightly confused matter.
"We used to hang out back in high school, well at least the one year you were there- Senior Year. Good times!"
"Hell yeah!"
"Well are you staying at the hotel the conference is at?" said Calleigh.
"Yeah, we are." said Sara.
"We should ride together then," said Greg.
"Yeah, sounds good."
IN LADIES CAR
"So how do you know 'Greg'?" said Calleigh.
"Well for starters he's at the Lab. And his full name is Gregory Sanders."
"Oh, he's cute."
"No! Calleigh come on."
"Sara Sidle don't you dare try to lie to me!"
"Okay fine, but we aren't going out."
"You should. He'd be good for you."
"What's that suppose to mean?"
"Well he's not old for starters." Calleigh said laughing out loud.
"Good point. But who's 'Eric Delko'?"
"Oh he's just a co-worker."
"Liar, liar, pants on fire!"
"FINE! He's my best GUY friend."
"He is sooo hot! Is he gay?"
"NO!"
"So then why aren't you two going out?!"
"It's too unprofessional."
"My ass!" said Sara.
MEANWHILE...
"Damn Delko! She is fine!"
"Hey, don't talk about Calleigh that way!"
"Ooh, touchy. You two going out?"
"No, were best friends," emphasising the last bit.
"Oh! You want more, but don't know how to tell her! Same."
"With Sara?"
"Yeah."
The rest of the way they sat reminiscing about their senior year.
AT THE HOTEL
"Us boys are goanna go check in, 'kay?" said Greg.
"That works." said Calleigh.
As they walked to the counter, they bumped into a man walking away from the counter. "Hey! Watch it man!"
"Messer?!" Eric and Greg said at the same time.
"Delko and Sanders?! What are you doing here?" Said Daniel.
"LINSEY?!" said Calleigh and Sara, as the guys spun around.
"You know each other?" said everyone at the same time.
"Yeah," said Eric.
"Messer went to school with us." said Greg.
"No way? Lindsey went to school with us," said Sara.
"Um excuse me miss," said Greg. "Can we get the 6 of our rooms next to each other?"
"Actually Mr. Sanders, you and Ms. Sidle will be in the same room, Mr. Delko and Ms. Duquesne will be in the same room, and if they haven't told you already so will Ms. Manroe and Mr. Messer," said the concierge.
"WHAT?!" said Greg and Sara simulatianously.
"Oh my God!" mumbled Calleigh and Eric.
"Oh you didn't know? That's what they always do at these conferences."
'What? Calleigh? Me? Same room? OVER NIGHT?! HELP!!' thought Eric
'I'm goanna need to take a really freezing cold shower to night' thought Greg.
'Oh my god! Eric will be next to me… possibly shirtless!! Oh no! I brought my lingerie!' thought Calleigh
'What if Greg sleeps nude! I wonder what Calleigh will be wearing to bed?' thought Sara.
"Why are you and Lindsey so clam, Messer?" Eric asked.
"We knew earlier," said Lindsey a little too quickly.
"Oh." said Sara.
"So where are you two sleeping?" said Greg.
"In the bedroom," said Danny.
'So they are together,' thought Calleigh.
"No! I meant what room?"
"Oh," said Lindsey.
"Room 510. You?"
"Room 511," said Eric looking at the room information, praying the information would change magically.
"Cool! We got room 512," said Greg.
'This is going to be a very, very long night,' though Sara, Calleigh, Eric and Greg.
"Hey!" said Danny- hoping to change the subject seeing the awkwardness between the four CSIs. "Why don't we go to the club upstairs tonight?"
"Yeah, we can all catch up," said Lindsey.
"Why don't we meet down here at around- 5:00pm; which gives everyone 2 hours."
"Sounds good," said Sara, looking at Greg who was nodding.
"So then it's a date," said Calleigh realizing that was the worst possible thing to say right then and there.
