Summary: Gil goes away for his confrence in Houston and leaves Catherine with their children.
Disclaimer: I OWN MY CHILDREN! LOL. But I do not own Catherine and Gil or CSI.Darn.
A/N: I've finally updated, and I know this chapter isn't the longest one, but it's possibly the cutest. LOL So... review and let me know what ya think. :D
Catherine sat with her three children in the living room with TV dinners in their lap, watching The Amazing Race. Mary took a bite of her food and spit it back into the tray.
"Ugh! What is that?"
"It's food. Eat it."
"I rather eat Jr's terds. That was awful on the taste buds, Mum." Kathy looked down at her food and frowned.
"Mary's right, Mom. It looks like it wants world domination," She said as she poked around the chicken leg in the tray.
"Whatever we don't have, you two want. Why can't you just be satisfied with what we've got?"
"I didn't say I wasn't satisfied. No. You probably misunderstood me. I'm terribly sorry..." Catherine eyed her daughter. Mary stabbed the piece of meat with her fork and threw it against the wall. "I MEANT TO SAY, THAT WAS DISGUSTING!"
"Mary Grissom! Clean that up this minute!"
"Take a good, hard look at that piece of 'meat' and if you're brave enough to clean it, or even touch it; I will be your cleaning slave for the rest of my life." Catherine easily got up and threw it away. Mary stood there with wide eyes and suddenly crossed two of her fingers together. "I didn't know you had it in you, Mom."

After Catherine had tucked the kids into bed, she called Gil and laid down in their bed.
"Hey..."
"Hi."
"How are things there?"
"They're okay. It's been raining since lunch, and I doubt it'll stop."
"What did the weather report say?"
"Just a thunderstorm. Don't worry about it."
"It's my job to worry." She smiled to herself. "By the way, what time is it?"
"Almost eleven thirty. I-"
"I didn't realize it was that late there. I'll let you get some rest, okay?"
"Alright. Goodnight, Gil."
"I love you."
"I love you, too." The second she hung up the phone, the floor outside of her door creaked. Lightening flashed and lit up the whole room. Mary, Kathy, and Jr busted through the door and jumped on top of the bed with their mother.
"Mommmmm!" She sighed as they climbed under the covers and clung on to her arms.
"If ANYONE... poops, uses the bathroom on themselves, throws up, kicks the covers off, drools, or pulls my hair... you're going sleep with daddy's bugs..."
"Can we burp," Cathy asked after a few seconds. Mary let out a huge burp and stretched, hitting Catherine in the head.
"Well I just did, so she can't do anything about-" Mary's bottom hit the floor of Catherine's room. Cathy and Jr laughed so hard, they started crying. "Alright. I see how it is. You don't want me in the bed?"
"NO," They all screamed at once. Mary frowned and pouted.
"Well... I didn't wanna sleep in it anyways!" Lightening struck again and Mary fell onto the floor. "TAKE COVER!" She looked under the bed and almost jumped ten feet into the air when she saw a pair of eyes looking back at her. She jumped on top of the bed and tried to get back in the covers. "There's something under the bed and it wants to take me with it!"
Catherine switched on the light and dug under the bed, pulling out a teddy bear that belonged to their little brother. Cathy laughed and Mary rolled her eyes.
"Yeah. That stupid teddy bear. It can't beat me and my ty-kwon-dou."
Day Four THURSDAY
Catherine woke up with a cramp in her neck. She was grateful that her three children laid in bed, still sleeping. The front door opened and Lindsey walked in with a tired expression.
"Morning, Linds."
"Morning."
"How was work?"
"Horrible. I'm just ready to go to sleep."
"Well don't be too loud. You're siblings are finally asleep."
"Trust me. The last thing I want is for them to wake up." Catherine laughed and started washing the dishes as Lindsey went up stairs to go to bed. She was halfway done with the dishes when she heard the constant noise of what sounded like a splat. She slowly turned around and backed up into the counter when she saw Mary and Cathy standing there, throwing up water pool toys drenched in water.
Cathy threw the first one and laughed when it hit Catherine dead in the chest, her shirt now becoming see through. Kathy launched two at a time, hitting her in the head and on the leg. She pushed herself away from the counter and ran into the basement, not the smartest choice.
"Stop! You two, stop!! Please!"
"Oh no, Mommy. See, you kicked me out of the bed last night. You thought I forgot about that, didn't you? I think you and daddy made a mistake when you had me. You should've known two smart people would've made a genius baby." Catherine's eyes grew wide as she picked up a container with many grasshoppers and crickets. "Time to shut... it... DOWN."
"NOOOOOO!"
The glass hit the floor, and the bugs were e v e r y w h e r e.
"Mary Grissom, get that smirk off your face this second."
"What smirk?"
"NO X-FILES!"
"... you win," Mary said under her breath as she stomped out of the basement. "... but revenge is sweet, mommy dearest. It is sweeter than the cookies you bake."
A/N: LOL. Yes. Revenge is sweeter than Catherine's chocolate chip cookies. MUAHA! XD
