Sorry about taking so long to update. Here's the next chapter. Enjoy!
I don't own CSI:NY, I only own Gabi and anyone you don't recognize.
For the week following Flack's birthday when the two detectives fell asleep with two grins plastered on their faces after a few more 'rounds' of lovemaking, they began to fall into the same routine. They would go over each others apartments and end up having sex and this began to worry Gabi. She didn't want this relationship to be purely physically yet that seemed to be what it became. Of course she hadn't talked to Flack about this yet but planned on doing so later in the day, after they were both of from work. Gabi knows that Flack cares about her but wants to make sure they don't continue down the current road their on.
She was currently at the crime lab working on the George McMahon case. The lawyer that was found pinned underneath a car, but was killed by a bullet. This led the team to an empty warehouse which was being used as a drug factory, yet since then there were not many leads to follow.
"I got a hit on the hair found on the vics body" Adam told Gabi and Mac who were both in the lab
"So the guys in the system" she asked not surprised that someone with a record would be connected to this crime
"Well no" Adam replied
"What are talking about Adam" questioned Mac
"Well for starters its not a man" Adam said looking at the name and the results on a piece of paper "The hair came back as familiar match to Evan Cena, he's in jail for life for murder"
"So its his daughter" Gabi replied
"Yeah" Adam said then went to the computer to look up information on her "He's got one daughter, Holly" he replied
"I'm gonna take Lindsay with me" Mac informed Gabi "You stay here and work on the evidence" he finished and left the room to find the petite CSI
Just then Danny walked in looking like he was in some kind of pain. "You alright there Messer" a concerned Gabi asked
"I'm fine" he replied blowing of her question but she didn't believe him
"So whadda we got" Danny asked the two "And where was Mac heading off to"
"Mac's following a lead" Gabi told him "The hair we found on the victim came back to the daughter of a convicted murderer" and Danny just nodded at the answer to his question.
"Did you get anything from autopsy" Gabi asked Danny who had gone to the ME's office when he got a call from Sid asking him to come
"Yea" he replied reaching in to his back pocket taking out a small plastic bag with a bullet inside "Sid pulled this from the George's brain, says it was stuck in there pretty good" he said handing it to Adam
"Looks like a .45 automatic" Gabi said
"Ding ding ding you are correct my lady" Adam said after getting the results of the bullet
Danny laughed and Gabi just stared Adam who quickly muttered an 'I'm sorry'
"Anyway" Danny said trying to cut the awkwardness "Did you get a match to anything"
"Sadly no" Adam replied
"And sadly there's more" responded the lab tech "the blood trail you and Lindsay found came back as an unknown male"
"Were getting nowhere" Gabi said frustrated
"Lets look over the evidence from the warehouse again" Danny stated as he and Gabi grabbed the evidence they needed.
Meanwhile Mac and Lindsay along with Flack, who Mac had gone to in order to get Holly's address, at the front door of a large and expensive looking apartment building. The three were taking the elevator to the thirty fifth floor where Holly resided as Lindsay noticed the smirk that seemed to have been plastered on Flack's face for about a week.
"What's with the grin" Lindsay whispered
"I don't know what your talking about Monroe" he replied
"You've been walking around for a week looking like you just won the lottery" she replied
Flack was about to respond when the elevator chimed and the doors opened. The three walked out to Holly's apartment.
"Mrs. Cena, NYPD" Flack knocked and informed the women
The door opened revealing a petite women, looking to be in her mid thirties with dark eyes and black hair clearly wearing designer clothes holding on to a glass of what appeared to be red wine.
"What can I do for you officers" she asked
"Detectives" Flack corrected
"Do you know George McMahon" Lindsay asked
"He's dead isn't he?" the women bluntly stated and when she noticed the stone faces the detectives were currently sporting she knew it was true.
"I had a feeling this would happen but not this soon" she added
"How do you know Mr. McMahon" Mac asked
"He is" she paused "was my fiancée"
Mac nodded "What did you mean when he said you knew this was going to happen"
The dark haired women looked at Mac before tears sprung in her eyes " I knew about his drug problem but he promised me he was going to get clean. And I believed him but the other night he came home and I knew he was high and we argued and he left"
"What time was this" asked Mac
"About three am" she answered thinking back to the argument
"So how did your hair get on him" a skeptical Flack questioned the women
"What" she asked
"The CSI's found on foreign hair on your fiancée and it came back to you" he replied
"How is that possible" she asked
"We were able to match it to your father" Lindsay answered and noticed the angered look on Holly's face at the mention of her incarcerated father
"Miss" Mac stated trying to get her to answer Flack's question
"Look George was a good guy but sometimes when he got high he would get angry, really angry and it was like he was a completely different person" she cried
"Well when he came home, like I said we starting arguing, and he started saying some really nasty things, calling me a bitch I went to turn away from him and he lulled my hair and I fell" she informed the three
Flack looked over at the two CSI's for an answer as to if this incident could have caused the hair to be on the victim.
As if knowing what Flack was thinking Mac said " The hair could have gotten caught and then he transferred it to himself. The hair was found stuck on the victims pants.
"Where were you between the three and six am" Flack questioned
"Sleeping" she replied with a slight attitude "What else would I be doing?"
"Is there anything else you detectives need" Holly said still with an attitude
"Did your fiancée have any enemies, anyone you could think of who would want to kill him" Lindsay asked
"Other then my father no one that I could think of" she answered
"You keep in touch with him" Mac asked
"No" she laughed "but he certainly keeps tabs on me. My father wasn't to found of me dating a drug addict"
"This coming from a convicted murderer" scoffed Flack
"Look I don't know much, for the past couple of months George and I haven't really been talking so I wouldn't know what's going on" she said "Now if theirs nothing else"
She didn't finish because Mac had cut her off " If we need anything we know where to find you"
The detectives left the apartment building once again feeling as though this case was at a dead end.
Meanwhile, back at the lab Danny, Gabi and Adam were currently going over the evidence from the warehouse. The needles and bags filled with drugs had no usable trace on it. So the only thing they had left to check was the money, looking to see if there was any trace on it.
"I found something" Adam announced "There's a white trace on the bill" he said taking a sample of it and went over to the GCMS.
"Danny you sure your alright you looked like you were in pain before" Gabi once again asked her friend
"I already told you I'm fine" he told her continuing to look over the money
"And I'm a detective and I know when people are lying" she replied
"Do you do this with Flack" replied Danny
"Do what" she asked
"Nag" was his simple response
"There's not much talking going on" she joked
Danny didn't answer and the two finished with the money coming up empty handed. Then Adam spoke up "Guys you might wanna see this" he summoned Danny and Gabi to the computer screen he was currently looking at.
"What's up Ross" Danny said
"Well the white trace is cocaine, the chemical composition is a match to drugs seized in a raid four months ago. Five people were arrested and guess who one of the lawyers' for a defendant was" Adam said
"George McMahon" Danny answered
"You are correct" Adam responded
"What's the name of that defendant" Gabi asked
"Nick Ryan" Adam informed the two
"What happened with the case" Danny said
"Nick Ryan was the only one convicted" Adam said reading the information from the screen
"So what are we thinking" Gabi said "Nick couldn't have killed him, according to this" she referred to the screen "he's currently serving fifteen years"
"He could of hired someone to do it" Adam chimed in
"But why" Gabi said
"This Nick Ryan guy is the only one convicted, his attorney is a druggie and some of the drugs from the raid turn up at McMahon's crime scene" Gabi started
"George needed a fix, found out about the warehouse and gets himself some drugs, and somebody there isn't too happy too him and then" Danny starts but is cut off by Adam
"Boom" Adam says
Gabi and Danny just stare at the lab tech. An embarrassed Adam replies "Sorry… that was your moment….I thought you were gonna…boom"
Gabi laughed at her Adams' antics and turns to Danny and tells him they need to find out more about this raid and Nick Ryan. The two leave the room when the blonde noticed something.
"Danny where's your badge" she asked
"Huh" was the sandy haired detectives reply
"Your badge" she stated again. This time the two were in the elevator on there way to talk to Flack.
Danny knew how stubborn and smart Gabi was and decided to confide the truth in her. "I hurt my back again at a scene last month and I went to an acupuncture place. Put my badge and dog tags in a locker came back and it was gone"
"Your badge was stolen" she stated shocked
"Yeah" he replied
"Did you report it" she asked and he replied with a no
"Why Danny" she asked frustrated
"I didn't want to make a big deal about it" he told her which was the same thing he told Flack when he found out
"It is a big deal" Gabi nearly shouted
"You sound like Flack" Danny said
"Flack knows" she questioned
"Yeah" he responded
"God Danny, do you know what's gonna happen when Mac finds out" she said frustrated with how juvenile her friend was being about this situation
"He's not gonna find out because your not gonna tell him right" Danny said
"Of course I wont" Gabi answered truthfully "But sooner or later he's gonna find out, and it wont be pretty"
Yeah, not the best ending but it'll get better. And I promise I will have the next chapter up alot quicker.
I did use the boom line from "The Formula". I thought it was hilarious, and I love Adam.
