Summary:This is my first attempt at a Purejoy! fanfiction - anyway it is dedicated to my good friend from myspace.

A Heartfelt Reunion

Catherine was sat in her office after the team had finished the latest case. It was a tough case that had slightly affected her in a way like it would do with any mother. A young heiress was kidnapped after witnessing the brutal murder of both of her parents. Luckily the team had managed to find the kidnapper and the heiress due to some of the evidence left behind at the crime scene. The kidnapper/murderer was sent to jail for a long time and the heiress who was called Lucy went to live with her aunt in Southern California. Whilst in her office Catherine picked up a framed photograph of her daughter Lindsey and herself with Grissom - the man who left with her heart.

Nick Stokes was on his way to the prints lab when he passed by Catherine's office. He was able to see how sad she was just by her body language and the sigh that he heard. Nick knew why Catherine was upset - she missed Grissom and she was trying her best to lead the team after Warrick's death, Sara & Grissoms departure at separate times and now Riley Adams departure. Nick smiled to himself after he thought of a way to cheer her up so he started whistling in his usual manner so Catherine didn't get suspicious. On hearing him whistlle Catherine offered a small smile which Nick returned before he then made his way to the prints lab. He did this so that he could talk Mandy into helping him out. Together Nick and Mandy devised a plan which they thought would help cheer Catherine up. Now all they had to do was make that one important phone call to a Mr Gil Grissom.
