Chapter Seven

September3rd2004 Las Vegas Nevada Venetian Hotel

Calleigh walks into her hotel room and sees her fiancé Tim Speedle reading a magazine. She goes and lays her head on his chest andreads the magazine with him.

"Hey, how did the interview go?" Tim asks.

"I think it went fine." Calleigh replies laying her head on his chest.

"I love you, Cal, you're my girl. If you get the job I'm prepared to move here and find a new job."

"I love you too, Speed and thanks."

"You're welcome."

Calleigh looked around the room and got agitated with it being unorganized. "Before we get married I need to teach you about organization, I hate mess and it's always good to know how to be organized. I don't think I'll be able to live with you if I don't teach you." Calleigh says chuckling to herself.

"Yeah ok, whatever, I like having my stuff unorganized. It makes me feel good." Tim replies quickly adding "Besides if I'm organized than I don't think I'll be able to find any thing"

"Well I hate disorganization it makes me go bananas. So I don't care if you want to learn about it or not I'm going to teach you organization anyways."

"But…"

"No ands, ifs, or buts." Calleigh interrupts, just as someone knocks on the door. "I'll get it."

Calleigh opens the door and sees a tall black man with big green eyes standing there with a cop.

"Warrick? What are you doing here?"

"I came to tell you that your sister has died."

"Careen? Oh my gosh, what happened?"

"She was murdered. We are trying hard to find her killer."

"Tim?" Calleigh calls.

"Yes" Speedle replies.

"Careen died, she was murdered."

"OH NO!" Tim exclaims.


September 4th, 2005 Miami California Crime Lab break room

Yelina, Horatio, Delko and Nicola sit in the break room. Yelina looks over at Nicola. The redhead had her nose buried in The Lives of the Saints by Nino Ricci, she remembered reading that book years ago and had recently seen the mini-series on Television. Nicola reminded her of a CSI she had met in Vegas in December 2004 when she and Horatio went there to help out with a case that was tied to Miami.

"Hey Nicola?" Yelina says waiting for the read head to look up from her book.

"Yes?"

"I was wondering if you were related to Nick Stokes."

"Uh…yes I am. He's my uncle. My mom Julia named me after him apparently they were close as kids and they are still close even though he lives in Vegas and she lives in Houston. I became a CSI just like him. I love my uncle a lot."

"That's cool. I met Nick almost a year ago and you remind me of him."

Nicola raises and eyebrow and replies "How so?"

"Well you guys do stuff the same way and you guys both have that gorgeous, breathtaking smile."

Nicola smiles that newly famous Stokes smile "Thanks."

"No Problem."

AN: Nicola Stokes is supposed to be based loosely on me. Ava was originally supposed to be based on me, but since she sort of turned out to be a witch I decided not to have her based on me and to come up with a new character. I actually am reading 'Lives of the Saints' and I recently saw the Mini-series with Sophia Loren. I don't know if the mini-seriesaired in the States (I'm from Canada)but oh well. If you are looking for an excellent book to read find Lives of the Saints by Nino Ricci. Anyway what did you think? Let Me Know, ok?
