Kyle was home alone for two weeks while Horatio and Jessica were on their honeymoon in Greece. Sophia was in Orlando with Irene and Clark. One week had gone by without problems, but when Kyle got home one day he found the door kicked in. The one day he had overslept and forgot to turn on the alarm and this happens! His stereo had been stolen, together with the TV in the living room. Kyle called Ryan and Jesse who arrived ten minutes later.
"Do you have to call my father and tell him about this?" Kyle asked.
"You don't want us to?" Ryan asked.
"If he finds out, he and Jessica will come straight home. They should enjoy themselves and not worry about a stolen stereo and TV." Kyle sighed, "Maybe we can fix this before they come home."
"I hope so." Ryan said, "Alright, we won't tell him unless it's still unsolved by the time he and Jessica come back home."
Kyle smiled in appreciation and then watched as Ryan and Jesse processed the crime scene and questioned the neighbors. They found several prints and a neighbor who had seen a car speed off, but never actually seen the break-in.
"It looks like it's going to work out okay Kyle. Your neighbor wrote down the license plate of the car." Jesse said, "And I got several prints. Most of them will probably be from you, H and Jessica, but we might get lucky."
"What about a shoeprint on the door?" Ryan asked.
"No, but I got sweat. Whoever kicked it in was barefoot." Jesse said, "Let's get this to the lab. You want to come along Kyle?"
Kyle shook his head, "I think I better stay here."
Jesse and Ryan nodded and said goodbye. They left for the lab and were very optimistic. They hoped that Kyle would still tell his father and Jessica about the break-in when they got home.

Jessica and Horatio had just enjoyed a lunch at a small café outside their hotel. Calleigh and Natalia had teased Jessica about making sure to see more than just the hotel room. Jessica now had photographic evidence that she and Horatio had been outside the hotel. They were now taking a walk along a beach, holding hands and just taking it easy.
"How long does Kyle have left before he can become a paramedic?" Jessica asked.
"Two years." Horatio smiled, "Usually you can't become a paramedic in Florida if you have a criminal record, but I pulled some strings and they found out he works extra at the morgue."
Jessica chuckled, "Well, he's a good kid and I don't think a criminal record like his should stop him from fulfilling his dreams."
"I agree." Horatio grinned and then gave Jessica a kiss, "We should work on giving Sophia and Kyle another sibling."
"That's just your excuse for taking me back to the hotel room and torture me in bed." Jessica smirked, "We will give them a sibling one day."
"I know, but the best part about giving someone a sibling is the part about making a baby." Horatio smiled and kissed Jessica's neck.
Jessica laughed and grabbed Horatio's hand. The two of them hurried back to their hotel room.

Ryan and Jesse had probably never had any easier case than this one. The two men who had broken in to the Caine-household had used their own car and left fingerprints on the door, as well as a sweaty footprint, not to mention the guys had hid all the stolen things in their own apartment and their fingerprints were all over it.
"So Ernie and Jamie, what made you decide to break-in to that house?" Jesse asked.
"It was just a house. Only the kid lives there and we saw him leave for school." Ernie said.
"This is your fifth break-in, don't count on getting out of jail anytime soon." Ryan said and left the two men alone, while the started bickering about who had got them caught.
Ryan then went home to Kyle to tell him the good news and to restore the stereo and TV.
"You caught them?" Kyle asked.
Ryan nodded and told him everything. Kyle sighed in relief. The two men put everything back where it was supposed to be and then Ryan advised Kyle to call Horatio and let him know about everything.
"Maybe I should wait until he comes back home." Kyle said.
"Kyle, he won't be mad at you. But I think it's wise to just tell him." Ryan smiled and patted the younger man's shoulder.
"Alright. Hey, are we still on for going out clubbing on Saturday?" Kyle asked.
"Yeah, we're still on. Walter will come along too." Ryan said as he walked back to his hummer.
"Great, see you!" Kyle smiled and closed the door.
He took a deep breath before he called his father. Like Ryan had said, Horatio didn't get angry. He was more concerned about Kyle's well-being, but he sighed in relief as Kyle told him all about the case. When father and son hung up, Kyle felt much happier.

"So are you sure Kyle is alright?" Jessica asked.
"Yeah, he's fine." Horatio smiled, "Don't worry sweetheart, everything is fine. Kyle is fine and the house is fine."
Jessica grinned and gave Horatio a kiss.
"Time is going by so fast, it's soon time for us to go home." Jessica sighed, "I miss Sophia and Kyle, but I really like this place."
"I know, we have to try to get away for ourselves some more times."
"Absolutely mister, now what was that thing you said about the making of a baby is the best part?" Jessica grinned and caressed Horatio's chest.
"I'll show you what I mean." Horatio smiled and kissed her deeply, while he carried his wife to their bed.
