Disclaimer: I do not own anything that you recognize. Isabella is mine though, use her if you want (:

A/N: Well it is a very ugly day here in the sunshine state (Florida) so what better way to spend it then by writing some fanfics. Haha. Well my hard drive on my laptop crashed erasing all of my CSI Miami episodes, so I went out and bought seasons 1-6 on DVD. If my dad finds out that my mom bought them for me he's going to be pissed. Haha. Oh well (:

"Let's take a vacation," Eric said suddenly walking into the master bedroom of the Delko household. Calleigh, who had been in bed surfing the web, peered over the edge of her laptop to give her husband a strange look.

"What?"

"Come on Cal, we have a four day weekend. Let's go do something," he replied excitedly. It was true; Horatio had graciously allotted them some time off to spend with their daughter, Isabella. It was Thursday evening, and they had both Friday and Monday off from work.

"Where's Bella?" Calleigh questioned, clearly ignoring the subject.

"I already put her to sleep. Anyway," he replied quickly getting back on topic. "I was thinking you, me, and Bella should take a road trip," he said grinning in the process. He deposited himself next to his wife, who rolled her eyes at his childish pleading.

"What did you have in mind?" She asked, finally giving in a little.

"I think we should go to Busch Gardens," he replied smiling from ear to ear.

"Busch Gardens? As in Tampa?" She replied, shocked at his proposal.

"No, Busch Gardens in Williamsburg," he replied sarcastically. "Yeah, in Tampa I really want to go on Sheikra I heard they took the floor out and everything!" He said excitedly

"Oh," Calleigh replied smirking. "I get it; this is about you not all of us." He rolled his eyes at her.

"Oh, come on Cal. There's a whole bunch of stuff that we could do in Tampa."

"Like what?"

"Well we could take Bella to the Aquarium because you know how she likes her fishes," he said smiling, referring to her obsession to the movie Finding Nemo.

"Hey mister, what about me," Calleigh questioned pretending to be hurt.

"I could never forget about you my love," he replied while depositing a quick peck on her lips. She blushed and turned her head. "We could always do a little shopping," he said raising his eyebrows because he knew of his wife's weakness for shopping. Her eyes widened and a smile spread across her face. "Maybe we could go to International Plaza while we're up there, you know that is if you want to go," he said nonchalantly. Without even giving him a response she quickly got off the bed, and began to pull clothes from her closet.

"Check the weather," she called out to him from inside her closet. Eric began to chuckle and silently obeyed. "When you're done with that go pack some clothes for Bella," she said after a minute. He looked up from what he was doing as his eyes grew large. He had no idea what kind of things he needed to pack for a 2 year old.

"Don't you think that you could do that Cal?" He questioned, silently hoping that she would.

"I think you can handle it," she replied, clearly telling him he had no choice. After purchasing the tickets for both Busch Gardens and the Aquarium, he turned off the computer and silently walked down the hall to his daughter's room. When he opened the door he expected her to be asleep, but she was still up nursing the bottle of warm milk that he had given her 10 minutes before.

"Daddy!" She greeted, quickly abandoning the sippy cup to stand in her crib with her arms outstretched.

"No, princessa. Daddy just needs to get you some clothes because you, me, and mommy are going on a trip," he told his daughter excitedly. He still couldn't believe that Calleigh had given in so easily

"A twip?" She asked curiously. Mommy and Daddy had never taken her on a trip before, and she was curious to know what it was.

"Mhhm," he replied, moving to her closet to extract her pink suitcase from the top shelf. "We're going to go ride some roller coasters and see some fishes!" He told her, almost excited as a young kid on Christmas Eve.

"Nemo?" She questioned.

"That's right," he praised, moving to her chest of drawers to begin packing her things. She squealed happily at the thought of going to go see real live fishes like the ones she saw in the movie. She watched as her daddy finished packing her clothes and other necessities that she would need. He finished zipping up her suitcase, and deposited it on her rocking chair.

"Get a good night's sleep little girl we have a big day ahead of us," he instructed Bella.

"Otay daddy." She replied animatedly, laying down and pulling her fuzzy pink blanket over her small body. Eric walked over to her crib and leaned his face down to give her a kiss on the check.

"Night Bella, I love you," he whispered into her ear.

"I wove you too daddy," she replied turning over on her side, a trait she had inherited from her mother. He turned off her lights and silently closed the door. He walked back into his own room where Calleigh was triumphantly standing over two large suitcases.

"Aww honey, you packed for me," he commented placing his hand over his heart for affect. Calleigh looked up at him, and gave him a strange look.

"Packed for you nothing, this is all my stuff," she replied in all seriousness. He stood there mouth agape. How could she possibly need that much stuff for four days? Then she let out a loud laugh. "Of course I packed for you; do you really think that I could bring this much for only four days?" He let out a small chuckle and crossed the room to envelop her into a hug. She leaned into his chest and breathed in his sent. She absolutely loved the way that he smelled. It was like nothing she could describe. He stroked her silky hair that fell down her back. He had always loved her hair, and when ever he saw her he had to resist the urge to run his fingers through it. She sighed and he lifted her chin so that he could plant a kiss on her lips. She reached up hungrily to wrap her arms around his neck in hopes of pulling him closer to her. He pushed her to the side of the bed, forcing her to sit down. He then began to start a trail of slow sensual kisses along her neck. She moaned and he began to nip the places where his kisses had just lavished. She put her hands out behind her for support, and leaned her head back to grant him better access. He began to grow impatient, and began to gently lean her back onto the bed. He remembered, too late, that there were two large suitcases currently occupying the space. As he leaned her back her head hit the corner of one, and she sat up abruptly. He was genuinely concerned and began to apologize. He was cut off, however, by Calleigh's laughter.

"I think that's enough excitement for one night," she said, still giggling and rubbing her head. "Help me get these suitcases off the bed will ya?" He happily obliged, and soon he was under the covers holding his wife firmly to his chest.

"Are you excited?" He questioned

"As long as I get to spend time with the people I love, I'm ecstatic," she replied sleepily trying to conceal a yawn.

"Get some sleep we have a long day tomorrow." His only response was his wife's even breathing signaling that she was already in dream land. "Sweet dreams my love," he whispered before falling asleep himself.

A/N: Well this was kind of a filler chapter I guess. There'll be another chapter with the trip to Tampa. I personally love International Plaza, so I figured Calleigh would too (: When my cousin Jacklyn was down here we had to take her to the aquarium because of her obsession with Nemo. Also Sheikra is not what it's cracked up to be. Personally I like Montu better, but that's just me. During the summer I practically live at Busch Gardens. Haha (:
