The plane landed and Grissom, Nick, and Greg piled into Grissom's car.
"We only have two hours before shift starts. Let's go get something to eat before we head in."
" And we have to work because…"
"Because, Greg, you put this elaborate plan together without my permiss…
Greg who did you get permission from to take a week off from work."
"You're to stressed Dad. Relax. I told Catherine that it was my life's dream to go down to Texas and to go to a real live CSI conference with my boss. So she let me go in her place."
Grissom almost had to pull over because he couldn't see, he was laughing so hard.
"Hey, Dad. Are we going to tell the gang?" Nick asked after he finally caught his breath.
"Well put it this way," Greg piped in, "you're going to tell Sara. Dad's going to tell Catherine. So that only leaves Warrick. So, hell, why not. Hey, Dad, why don't you call Cath and tell her to bring in Lindsey tonight, since we have to work, if things are slow."
They were the first ones in, so they headed for the break room to wait for the rest to come in. Greg reluctantly had to share his coffee with Nick and Grissom because if he didn't he would have to hear Grissom's "community water" speech yet again.
About ten minutes later, the rest of the gang came in, led by Lindsey. After everyone said their hellos Grissom, Nick and Greg told them about the trip itself and how Greg saved the DNA presentation. They ended their story by telling everyone how they are and always were a family. Catherine and Lindsey ran over to Grissom and Sara ran over to Nick to congratulate them. However Greg ran over to Warrick to helphim upoff the floor after he passed out.
A few months later, it was finally the big day for both Nick and Sara and Grissom and Catherine. It was a double wedding since both couples wanted Greg to be the best man and Lindsey to be the flower girl. The wedding and reception were beautiful and both Nick and Greg were getting used to calling Grissom dad. At some point during the reception, Greg made a toast. Greg was up most of the night writing it. He felt it was short, but it got his message across.
"I feel very lucky today," he started, "Because a few months ago, I really thought I was related to Papa Olaf. But now, I found my true family. Ya know, I just realized that it includes all but one of the CSI graveyard shift. Odd. Anyway, best of luck to both the Grissom's and the Stokes-Grissom's."
The next day, Greg had to drive both couples to the airport for their honeymoons. He and Lindsey waved their good-byes. He would be watching Lindsey for the next two weeks since he was the "built-in" babysitter. They headed for the car, which was parked on the street instead of in the parking lot.
"Hey, Greg. If mom, dad, Nick and Sara are not going to be around for the next few weeks, who is going to help you and Warrick in the lab?" Lindsey asked.
"Well," Greg started, very excitedly, "Horatio Cane is flying in from Miami and Mac Taylor is flying in from New York. So, in other words, we'll be back here tomorrow to pick them up. They're going to stay with us since Warrick's family is at his house."
Lindsey sighed. They walked out of the airport and turned onto a less busy street.
"Hey Linds," Greg started. "Out of all the family I've gained in the past few months, I like you the most."
"Aww, Greg. That's sweet. Thanks. But may I ask why?"
"Oh, I don't know. I guess it's because I can still beat you to the car." he said as he took off down the block.
"GREGORY HOJEM SANDERS-GRISSOM! Wait for me." yelled Lindsey running right behind him.
Just a not to say that if you don't know Horatio Cane is From CSI: Miami and Mac Taylor is from CSI: NY.
Alright. That's it for this story. Thanks for all the reviews. Hope you liked it.
