Chapter Five

August 26th 2005 Las Vegas; Crime Lab; Break room

Sara and Nick decided to tell the team about their engagement and their pregnancy that morning so they got there early to ask Grissom for a couple minutes before assignments. They also wanted to tell Catherine that they had found the killer of Elizabeth and Peter. They were sitting in the break room when Ava walked in.

"Hey Ava, how are you this morning?" Sara asks after taking a sip of her Orange Julius, which she'd been addicted to since she went on her first date with Nick in January.

Ava didn't answer she just poured a cup of coffee and disappeared out of the room, right before Warrick walks in.

"Hey guys. How are you two this morning?" Warrick asks knowing well that the both of them were just fine.

"Hey War, we're ok thanks, how about you?" Nick replies putting his bookmark in the book he was reading and taking a sip of his coffee.

"I'm alright, what's wrong with Ava?"

"So you did meet the new girl. What do you think of her?" Sara asks.

"Yeah I met her at the airport couple weeks ago. I was there dropping off a friend when I saw her struggling with her three children and their luggage I offered to help and wouldn't take no as an answer. We've been friends since and started dating a couple days ago. I think Ava is terribly smart and extremely beautiful." Warrick says and by the look on Nick's face he adds "and Yes I know about you and Ava, and you better stay in Fiona's life or I'll hunt you down make sure you will."

"You don't have to worry man I plan to be in my daughter's life until the day I take my last breath." Nick says just before Gil and Catherine walk in.

"Ok now we just have to wait for Greg and Ava then we can get down to business." Sara says holding Nick's hand under the table trying hard to hide her engagement ring.

Ava walks in followed by Greg. Ava sits beside Warrick on the couch; Greg leans against the counter since everyone had taken the chairs.

"I guess we should get going with what we have to say. Nick Proposed to me two nights ago and I said yes. We're planning on having a May/June wedding." Sara says kissing Nick gently on the cheek.

"We're also going to have a baby in mid March." Nick adds smiling his widest smile.

"Congratulations you two, we never knew you guys were together." Catherine says.

"Catherine we also wanted to tell you that we found out who murdered your friends Elizabeth and Peter Josephson. If you want more information let me know and I'll fill you in on the details."

Catherine's eyes light up "Oh god thanks so much I was praying to God that you would find the killer, not that I doubted you would thanks so much guys." She says.

"Okay cases. Nick, Warrick, Greg dead female at the Venetian. Sara, Cath, your with me." Gil says.

Nick, Warrick, Greg pull up to the Venetian in Nick's Tahoe. The cop on the scene and Detective Warren Paulovich were talking about Warren and his wife, Rachael, becoming Grandparents.

"Hey, what do we got?" Sara asked twisting her engagement ring.

"36 year old Careen McAllister, She has a sister in Miami by the name of Calleigh. That lady over there is Caitlin Lupus she is a Forest Ranger from Banff in Canada. She was a good friend of Careen. Caitlin has four kids and the youngest saw something suspicious."

"Where are the kids?" Warrick asked.

"Warrick, Crystal, Marisa, and Allan are out there." Warren says pointing to where they were standing with their mother.

August 27, 2005 Miami; Crime Lab; Break room

Calleigh Duquesne sits in the break room seeing her boss, Horatio Caine, and her co-workers, Eric Delko, Tim Speedle, and a new CSI named Nicola Stokes sitting at the table. Calleigh smiled at her fiancé Tim Speedle and he smiled back. Tim and Calleigh started dating in November 2004 and got engaged a couple weeks before.

"Good Morning how is everyone this gorgeous morning?" Calleigh asks with her thick Louisianan accent.

"I'm good thanks and you?" Eric replies.

"I'm excellent."

"Hey I'm Nicola Stokes. You must be Calleigh; it's nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too Nicola," Calleigh replies shaking the young red heads hand.

"Good morning everyone," Detective Yelina Salas says with her rich Colombian accent. Horatio and Yelina recently started dating. After a moment of chatter a cell phone rings.

"Hello?" Calleigh says into her phone.

"Hello this is Director Robert Cavallo from Las Vegas is this Calleigh Duquesne?"

"Yes this is her, how may I help you?"

"I wanted to ask you if you were willing to be the Dayshift supervisor out here. Our previous one is about to retire and we have been looking all over the country for a reliable, hard-working person to fill the spot. Do you think you'd be interested?"

"Maybe, when would I start? Would I need to come out there and meet you?" Calleigh inquires.

"You need to come out here sometime next week to meet me. And if you get the job you'll start right away."

"Ok I'll come. I can be there Wednesday or Thursday next week. Is that alright?"

"Yes that's fine. Thursday is the best day though."

Calleigh was trying to be polite but inside she was scared and a little sad. She didn't want to leave her friends here in Miami. She also didn't know how Tim would feel about moving out to Vegas.

"Ok I'll see you then." Calleigh says before she hangs up.

September 3rd 2005 Las Vegas, Director Robert Cavallo's Office

Calleigh and Tim decided to come to Vegas together. Tim stayed behind at the Venetian. Calleigh was sitting in Cavallo's office a little nervous.

"Can I get your full name, your date of birth and your place of birth?"

"My full name is Calleigh Marie Duquesne; I was born February 28, 1974; in Darnell Louisiana."

"Thank you. How long have you been you been working a CSI?"

"Just over 7 years."

"Have you worked as one the whole time in Miami?"

"No, I worked in New Orleans for 3 and half years."

September 4th 2005 Las Vegas Nevada Willows Residence

Catherine hadn't really had a chance to talk to Lindsey since her and Gil decided to take a break. She thought she'd talk to Lindsey tonight because she so wanted Gil at the moment she had found out what had happened to her friends and wanted to talk to someone about. More specifically she wanted to talk to Gil, the man of her dreams the man she loves. Catherine walks up the stairs and knocks on Lindsey's bedroom door.

"What." Came, the tense voice of the 14 year old girl in the room.

Catherine opens the door. "I wanted to talk to you."

"Talk to me about what?"

"About what happened to your dad."

"What do you care, you killed him didn't you?" Lindsey says glaring at Catherine.

"NO, I did NOT kill your dad. Why would you think that?"

"Well, maybe if you were nicer to him maybe he would still be here." Lindsey screams.

Catherine couldn't believe what she was hearing. Her daughter was calling her a murderer, something she knew wasn't true. "Your dad went behind my back a lot. So I don't really care that he's dead." Catherine screams back before she realizes what she says. 'Why did I say that now it sounds like I didn't love Eddie and I did to some extent?' Lindsey has a sad look on her face "Look Linds, I'm sorry I didn't mean that. I just don't understand why you think it's my fault that he's dead."

"Dad always told me that he loved you. He told me you guys divorced because you cheated on him."

"I DID NOT CHEAT. YOUR FATHER WAS A LIER."

"YOU'RE THE LIER, YOU'RE A BITCH."

"You're grounded. You think about what I said and we'll talk later. I'm going to call Nancy to watch you I'm going out."

"where are you going? To go sleep with your boyfriend of the week?"

Catherine ignored that and left the room. An hour later she pulled into Gil's driveway and walked into his house. When she walked into the living room she saw Sara laying in Gils arms.

"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!"

SURPRISE! Speedle is still a live YAHOO. What did you think? Review and let me know if i should keep going or trash it.
