This is a Nick/Cath Story! This is my first one so please let me know how you like it and whether I should continue...
This is a pure fluff story. I had a thought while I was home sick today. What if combine two of my most favorite things in the world? What are they? Read on to see...
It was a hot day when Nick Stokes arrived at his destination. He had been looking forward to this trip for a long time. This was his chance to have some relaxation and rest. He smiled as he walked over to get his luggage. He had one carryon bag and one checked bag. He smiled as he lifted it off of the conveyor belt and walked out of the terminal and into the hot Florida sunshine. Even though he was a grown man he still had a deep love for Disney World. His first stop was to get on a bus that would take him to the car rental agency.
That taken care of he drove to the hotel. He is staying at the Grand Floridian Resort. Pretty expensive, but well worth the cost for the relaxation he craved.
He no sooner settled in when there was a knock at the door. He frowned as he thought to himself "I wonder who that could be?
He walked over to the door and was surprised to see Catherine Willows standing on the other side of the door. He looked at her and said "What are you doing here Cath?"
Catherine shrugged and said "I am not really sure. I just knew that I had to come here. I..."
Nick smiled and said nothing as he stared at her for the longest time. Finally she sighed and said "I shouldn't have come here. I'll go back home."
Before she could leave, he grabbed her arm and said "Stay Cath, there is an extra bed and..."
She smiled and said "Okay Nicky..." She walked inside the room and let out a gasp. She had never seen such a beautiful room. She turned around and looked at him as she said "This is beautiful room Nick..."
He smiled as he said "You haven't seen anything yet. Look out here." He led her to the balcony and opened the door. It overlooked the Seven Seas Lagoon and the sun was setting and the moon was coming up. It was incredibly romantic and Catherine's breath caught in her throat. She looked at him and said "This is lovely Nick!"
He smiled as he said "It is." He shut the door and walked back inside. She didn't know what else to say except "I feel as though I am intruding on your peace and quiet. I really should leave. I don't know what possessed me to come all this way but..."
Nick smiled and said "Have you eaten anything in the past 6 hours?"
Catherine smiled and said "Well, they served a meal on the plane."
This caused Nick to make a face, which made Catherine laugh. She smiled as he said "I am talking about a real meal. With real food. Not that junk they serve on the planes."
She shook her head and said "I guess I haven't then." She waited for his reaction and smiled when he said "Well, let's freshen up and get something to eat. Then we can talk about what happens next."
Catherine smiled and said "I'd like that."
Nick goes into the bathroom first and shuts the door. Catherine sits on the bed and sighs. She never should have let Sara talk her into following Nick here. So much for girl talk. Oh well. What's done is done. She couldn't undo it. Truth be told, she didn't really want to.
Nick smiled as he undressed and stepped into the shower. He turned the water on full force and let the hot streams work it's way into his tired muscles. She had surprised him buy showing up here. It was definitely not something he had expected. Although it wasn't an unpleasant surprise. It was definitely a big surprise. He wondered if Grissom had anything to do with her being here. He would have to remember to ask him when he got back to work...
