Lalenna- thank you so much for the review, glad you and your brother like it.
Wolf Maid- I'm writing I'm writing : ) I like Grissom in this chapter. I decided he needed to have some fun
"ECKLIE" shouted Catherine getting his attention as he turned to see Sara and Greg's heads bobbing along outside the window of his small hut.
"Good now get me out," he growled
"Let me see" Cath nearly knocked everyone out the way to peer in at Ecklie who was bright red and banging on the window. It seemed his legs were bound to a chair.
"Oh priceless" laughed Nick grabbing a camera and taking a picture
"Oh man. Brass is gonna worship that" laughed Warrick as Ecklie shouted even louder Grissom went for the door.
"WAIT," shouted Sara wiping her muddy hands on her even muddier jeans making a mess.
"Tell me again why are we letting him out?" she asked with an evil look in her eyes.
"So that the other labs don't make fun off us," said Warrick not quite catching up.
"Oh I like it" smiled Catherine standing next to Sara who was now trying to smooth out her hair that was drying and hanging in curls. Greg was also trying to fix his hair that was now hanging limply and parted in the middle.
"Now let's see. No Ecklie and getting made fun of. Or Ecklie and not getting made fun of" said Nick standing by Sara and Catherine as a show of unison.
"I vote he stays," said Warrick moving.
"Majority rules" smiled Sara who had now taken to taunting Ecklie who was still shouting. She was stood waving and smiling at him as he banged on the window and shuffled his chair across the floor.
"WHAT? WE CAN'T HEAR YOU" screamed Catherine.
"I KNOW VERY WELL YOU CAN," shouted Ecklie his face was glowing red.
"YOU CAN'T FIND YOUR LIPSTICK" said Catherine managing to keep a straight face.
"I'M GOING TO WRITE YOU UP FOR THIS" shouted Ecklie.
"I THINK HE SAID HE'S GOING TO WAGGLE HIS FIST" said Cath shouting at Sara who was nodding over emphatically along with Greg.
"Oh look there he goes," laughed Greg as Ecklie began waving his fist at them.
"DECOMPS FOR THE NEXT YEAR"
"OH HE SAY'S HE CANT HEAR" Sara shouted at Grissom who had given up and was just stood watching with a small hint of enjoyment on his face.
"WE CAN'T HEAR EITHER" shouted Nick deciding the more of them which did it the less he would be able to do.
"Come on Gil" said Catherine waving her arm to get him to come over.
"WHY ARE YOU ALL MUDDY?" asked Ecklie looking at the assembled group "WELL EVERYONE EXPECT CATHERINE" he added.
"Gil he called you a fuddy duddy" said Catherine laughing as Greg traced Ecklie's hand round the window with his own.
"ENOUGH GET ME OUT"
"WELL IT'S A PITY WE COULDN'T FIND ECKLIE," shouted Catherine starting to walk away.
"Yes and with the heat you know he could start seeing things, delirium" said Nick following.
"Oh no you don't. I saw all of you. Don't think I wont get you for this" said Ecklie realising they could hear him.
"Really Ecklie what you going to do? Split us up, you wouldn't dare" said Sara walking away.
"I'd like to watch you explain to the sheriff why you are splitting a team of CSI's who work well together on a delusion you had while locked in a shed" smiled Nick loving the look on Ecklie's face as he caught the others up.
"I can't believe I let you do that" sighed Grissom.
"You have emotions, who knew" laughed Catherine "god Sara leave your hair alone" she said as Sara pulled her curls trying to straighten them.
"You look sexy" smiled Greg as most people wondered why Sara didn't tell him off but smiled.
"Oh yes mud and really is my look" she mocked as all of a sudden Warrick ran by her. He charged full pelt into Cath tackling her to the floor and covering her in mud.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR" she screamed.
"Well you were clean. I didn't want you to feel left out" he replied staying on top of her for that little bit too long.
"What part of this top is new did you not get?" she shouted angrily. "I'm going to get you for this" she threatened as he helped her back up.
"I can not believe I just did that," announced Grissom walking so stiffly that he looked like a cardboard cut out.
"Calm down Gris. You'll have a heart attack or something" warned Greg as Catherine swung Warrick round trying to get him in a head lock but only succeeding in getting him to throw her over his shoulder and march of in front with her banging on his back.
The six damp and muddy CSI trampled back into the conference hall to the laughter and mock applause of several labs who had clearly found there missing member and chosen to release them.
"Couldn't find him. Wasn't there a giant neon sign pointing to him," laughed one CSI from Chicago.
"Don't rise to it man" said Warrick grabbing Nick and preventing him from socking the man one.
"Oh look the wonderful CSI's couldn't find there leader so the played in the mud"
"Oh did the lab techs get over exited getting outside and have a accident?" asked Sara making everyone stare at her before the threw a bottle of water off the side at him making a wet patch on his trousers.
"I do hope you've got the plastic sheet's," laughed Catherine walking by as his friends laughed.
"Were all going to get sacked. I think I need a drink," mumbled Grissom
"And why are you all looking like that" asked a woman stood smirking at them.
"We went under cover. You know camouflage," replied Greg as she stared.
"Come on lets go get changed for the ball" said Sara dragging Nick away from where some lab rats who hadn't actually found there missing person were taunting him.
"Come on we want to see you all in tuxes. You know I had to drag Sara to a dress shop" said Catherine madly pressing the button to get the lift so that everyone stopped starring.
"Greg's is probably orange," laughed Warrick slapping him on the back.
"No but my shirts red"
"You'll match Sara" smiled Cath as they reached their room.
"We'll go get changed in the other room" said Warrick as he and Nick collected their tuxes.
Twenty minutes later and there was a knock at the door.
"Come in" came Cath's muffled reply as she held a hairgrip in her mouth
"Hey. WOW" Greg stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Sara. She was wearing a long red dress that started of deep red and lightened to a bright red where it ended just below her knee's longer at one side then the other. Her hair hung wavy down her face drawing his attention to where the material of her dress hung over never her neckline.
"I think Greggo approves" smiled Nick coming in.
"You look…well hot" smiled Warrick looking at Catherine who wore a light green halter neck dress that dropped low enough at the back that he didn't need that much imagination. She was pinning her hair up so it hung in curls from the top of her head. The thing that finished it of was her downing a shot every time a bit fell loss.
"She keeps doing that every time it goes wrong" laughed Sara starring at Greg.
He wore a plain black tux with a red patterned shirt underneath that added that hint of Greg to it. Grissom was stood in the door also in a black tux with white shirt like Warrick only he was drinking brandy.
"Gris on the drink. Did we drive you to it?" mocked Sara.
"I've just left commodore Ecklie tied up in a shed after all of you made fun of him. I have put up with our childish games and Greg and Sara's shameless flirting for the past two day's. I think I deserve a brandy"
"I think he's had more than a brandy" laughed Cath as Greg and Sara kept looking at each other and then away.
"Was it that obvious?" Asked Greg.
"Oh yes" replied everyone
"Nearly as bad a Warrick and Cath" muttered Nick loud enough for several people to hear.
"I tired flirting with the woman from Chicago. Turn out she was gay" sighed Grissom sitting on the bed to a round of laughter and shocked chocking noises form Catherine.
"WHEN?"
"When I got my third brandy," replied Grissom as Nick starred at him opening and closing his mouth.
"Oh even he flirted with someone. Come on I need someone now!" complained Nick.
"Come on we'll get Gris some proper drink and then maybe he'll flirt with you," laughed Warrick putting an arm round Nick and pushing him out the door.
TBC…..
Ok sorry but your going to have to wait until Thursday for the next chapter involving drunk Grissom but until then here's a teaser
"How much has she had?" Grissom asked Catherine who was going between a vodka and cocktail.
"I didn't count but I've had these two, two more and a water" she rattled of the list.
"Well no more" said Grissom staring at Cath's cocktail.
"Want some?" she asked pushing it towards him.
