AN/ Sorry have not updated in a few days but I was in London. Enough chit chat on with the story

Catherine looked straight into the eyes of Grissom. She was shocked that he was here - she didn't understand why he had come now. He hadn't called her in a few weeks which made her a bit miffed but she understood that he must have been busy.

"Gil - it's so good to see you." Catherine managed to say before walking over to Grissom and enveloping him into a hug. She inhaled his scent - which was her favourite aftershave of his that she had bought him as a present before he left.

"How, why when" Catherine questioned him. She was slightly confused by him returning so she stood back and walked to her desk and sat on the corner of the desk out of habit.

"Nick called. He said you had not been your usual self for a few weeks. He was worried about you. They all were."

Catherine smiled at this. Nick had been her confidante over the past few weeks but she did not think he would go so far as to call Grissom.

"By all you mean the lab rats too." Catherine asked with a slight smile

"Why yes of course Nick had his girlfriend help him." Grissom said with his knowing look

"Girlfriend ? Nick doesn't have a girlfriend that I know of." Catherine shot back at him in an instant.

"Well my dear you have not been watching Nick and Mandy lately have you.. Now do you want to go and see the team as it will save them from knocking on the door in a few minutes." Grissom offered his arm to Catherine and they walked out of the door towards the breakroon

A few minutes later they arrived in the breakroom and everyone was just as Catherine had left them a while ago. She smiled at them before sitting down in the comfy seat just past the door. She turned to look at the team - in a way she was proud of her team for getting Grissom back - it had managed to cheer her up. Catherine then looked over into the prints lab and laughed as Nick had just been playfully punched in the arm by Mandy

"Do you want some coffee. Grissom?"

"Make it some of Greg's Blue Hawaiian."

At this the team laughed together like old times
