Disclaimer: I don't not own CSI Miami, I do however, own Kathryn, Victoria and Nathan. This is my first CSI Miami so I hope you all like it.
Horatio Caine stood in his office, his hands on his hips and looking around at his colleagues. His black dress pants were adorned with a teal dress shirt, his black sunglasses were hanging off the pocket in the front. He ran a callused hand through his rusty red hair. His blue eyes glanced over each member of the team. Alexx Woods sat to the left of Horatio, her ebony eyes focused on him and a hint of smile on her mocha coloured lips. She was dressed in a white blouse and black dress pants, her hands holding on to a cup of chai tea. Across from her sat Calleigh, a smile on her peaches and cream skin. That smile in Horatio's opinion could brighten up any day. She was in a blue silk dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up, her blonde hair in a ponytail. She had a pair of tan pants on and was munching away on what appeared to be an Eat-More bar. Eric sat next to Calleigh. The tall Hispanic man, looked like he had not seen a razor in a few days, his hair askew. A hunter green shirt and black pants matched his skin color.
"H, what are we doing her so early," said Eric, rubbing a hand over his face.
Horatio smiled, "Well Eric, the D.A.'s office has decided that with the rising crime rate we need more investigators. They want us to take interns. There are going to be three of them. One for each of us has one and Alex, you will work with them all."
"An intern," laughed Calleigh in her southern drawl, her eyes blinking to grasp the concept.
Eric started to laugh, "Hey H, what do they think, were getting old or something?"
"Probably. I have the files on the tree of them and a picture. Calleigh you will be taking Victoria. Eric, you will be taking Nathan. I will be taking Kathryn," spoke Horatio, his voice deep and warm. He handed out files to each member on the interns to the group.
Alexx stood up and leaned over to see Horatio flip through the pictures and bio of the group. He stopped a few pages in and stared at a picture of a girl with blonde hair and blue/green eyes. He read her info and turned to Alexx, showing her the picture.
"Is that one of the interns? She doesn't look no older than 21?" questioned Alexx, taking a good look at the picture.
"It's because she isn't 21. She's 19," he replied. He than put the file down and spoke, "What have you guys found out about your interns?"
"Mine is 22, has his masters in chemistry already and biology," said Eric putting his file down on the table.
Calleigh voiced her information, "Mine's 23, and says here she has a masters in math and physic. God, what kind of people are they sending us?"
"I don't know but they are going to be here in half an hour so lets get ready," stated Horatio, grabbing his file and putting it away in the cabinet. The others followed suit and walked out the door, Alexx leaving first, followed by Eric. Calleigh waited for Horatio.
"Hey Cal, what can I do for you?" he asked sitting down at his desk.
"What are you doing tonight?" Calleigh asked him.
"Nothing why?" replied Horatio, leaning on his desk, small smile on his face.
"Well I have a dinner with my family tonight and I was wondering if you could come. My mother would like to meet you, having heard so much about you from my daddy," said Calleigh, flipping her blonde hair over her shoulder. Horatio wondered if her mother also heard about him from the little blonde herself.
Calleigh waited for her boss to answer. Yes she knew she liked Horatio from the first time she saw him, and trying to ignore the feelings were getting harder each day. She prayed to God that he would say yes. She did not want to have to deal with her family alone.
"Sure Calleigh. I'll come. Talk to me later about it all right. We have to go greet some interns," answered Horatio, Calleigh took a deep breath at his answer. He stood up and opened the door for Calleigh. She walked in front of him and gave a warm smile.
"Thanks, Horatio," she said with the deepest of sincerity. Horatio watched as she walked down the hall. He closed the door and leaned against it.
"I have got it bad," he said to himself. He opened his door and walked down the hall of headquarters.
When he got to the coffee room, hysterical laughter could be heard from more than one of his team members. He slowly slipped in to see a young man, about 22, with tan hair and startling green eyes, a piercing in his left eyebrow. He was dressed in a pair of black jeans and white wife beater shirt.
"… And I told the professor that I wasn't needed and he started to go red in the face," the man commented, causing everyone to go into another gale of laughter. Alexx looked up to see Horatio with a hint of a smile playing on his lips.
"Hello Horatio. We were just listening to Nathan. He is one of the interns," said Alexx, stepping out of the way for the two men to meet. Horatio stared at Nathan, than extended his hand for a handshake. Nathan took it and held it firm.
"Horatio Caine," he simply stated.
"Nathan Manqué," Nathan replied, and then sat down beside a blue cup of coffee.
"Nathan?" asked Horatio, "Do you know when the other two interns are coming?"
"I only know that Victoria is coming in about two minutes. I don't know about Kathryn. So your guess is as good as mine," replied Nathan shrugging his shoulders. Just as Nathan predicted, a tall girl with dark brown hair slipped into the coffee room. Dressed in royal blue dress pants, a violet silk dress shirt and tan high heels, the girl gave off the air of pride and confidence. Calleigh was the first one to speak.
"Hi, you must be one of the new interns. I'm Calleigh," she said sweetly, extending her hand out, and offering a warm smile. The young lady looked at it cautiously and then took it in her own.
"Victoria Heat," she replied softly. Victoria looked around and caught Nathan's glance, she returned with a glare.
Eric leaned over and whispered, "What the hell did you do to her? I have never gotten a glare that bad"
Nathan only blushed and mumbled something.
"I didn't catch that," Eric said. He looked up only to see Horatio, Victoria and Calleigh talking.
"I caught her ummm kind of changing at the campus one day. She has not forgiven me yet."
Eric let out a low laugh and patted the young boy on the back. "You are so dead."
The room fell into a rhythm with the groups talking. The glass door opened and the back of a blonde head came into view.
"Thank you, I uhh think I will be fine on my own now," came a soft voice. The person walked back and with the black pointer boots that Alexx and Calleigh could see, tripped over the edge of the door frame, falling back.
With lightning fast reflexes, Horatio through his arms out and caught the young lady. Her eyes were closed tightly ready for the impact that never came. Slowly her eyes opened and she looked at Horatio, who in turn looked at her. A deep red crossed her cheeks as Horatio helped her up, with a smile.
"Sorry, I'm a bit of a klutz," she said with a laugh. Horatio laughed along with her. She was dressed in black with pink pin stripe dress pants, a white dress shirt. Her hair was a dirty blonde with streaks of copper and light blonde. She had blue eyes.
Alexx watched a Calleigh narrowed her eyes at the young girl. 'Jealousy baby is not going to get you anywhere,' thought Alexx.
"I'm Horatio Caine," said Horatio as he introduced himself.
"Dear god you're my boss. Anyway I'm Kathryn Sucre. I am really sorry I am late. I swear that if that cab had not gotten in front of me I would have been on time. I swear," she said in a rushed tone.
Horatio gestured for her to have a seat next to Nathan and Victoria. Kathryn walked quietly over to the other two and took the seat to the left of Nathan.
"Since I'm sure that they did not tell you who you would be working under I will tell you. Nathan you will be working with Eric, Victoria you will be working with Calleigh and Kathryn you will be working with me. You all will submit weekly reports of what you did over the course of the week. We will be hiring only two of you so make sure that you do those reports are done on time. Understand?" asked Horatio, his eyes glancing at the young interns faces. He looked at each one for a few moments and moved on to the next. He stopped on Victoria for a moment and when she shook her head in a nodding approval.
Suddenly Horatio felt a buzzing sensation on his hip. He grabbed his pager and looked down. He grimaced at what the words showed ' 2 Dead Bodies.' He looked up at everyone else.
"Looks like the newbies will be coming with us today on the field to watch. Okay people lets move on out," and with that he turned and walked out the door.
