Ch. 12- Anticipation

Back up in the CSI lab Danny and Lindsay split up to check on the rest of the team. Walking down the hall Danny saw Hawkes and Adam sitting at a table in the break room. Walking over to their table Danny said,

"Hey guys, well we are done with the Chelsea Harris case."

Hawkes and Adam both smiled at hearing this news. With a smile upon his own face Danny asked,

"So are you two done with all of your work for the case? Cause we were going to go visit Mac and Stella in about an hour."

Adam and Hawkes nodded as Hawkes added,

"Yep we're pretty much done, we just a little bit of paper work left to do but we can finish that when we get in tomorrow morning. All we'd have to do is clock out."

Danny nodded again as he replied,

"Yeah me, Flack, Lindsay, and probably Sid still have to clock out as well."

That said Hawkes and Adam got to their feet and walked with Danny to do just that. Coming to the area where they clocked in and out they were joined by Lindsay and Sid. With a smile on his face Sid said,

"I am all clocked out and ready to go."

Lindsay smiled at him as she turned to the others and said,

"He's been smiling and acting all excited ever since Adam asked if he wanted to come with us to visit Mac and Stella earlier today."

The rest of the guys smiled, understanding Sid's mood. He was happy of being invited- he wasn't able to come with everyone else when Lindsay gave birth to Lucy. Turning back to the area that everyone was headed for Danny said,

"Well I guess the rest of us should go ahead and clock out. That a way when Flack comes back up we can all go ahead and leave."

Everyone agreed to what he said and continued on their way to clock out. Thirty minutes later after they had all clocked out Danny, Lindsay, Hawkes, Adam, and Sid were all huddled in the break room when Flack walked in.

Seeing them all there with their jackets and in Lindsay's case, purse in hand Flack held his hands up in front of him as if in surrender as he said,

"Sorry you all had to wait on me. I had to write up Michaels's statement to put in the report. But I talked to Mac, and he and Stella are anxious to introduce their new bundle of joy to the rest of us. Mac also said that he had asked Reid to come and visit with us as well. I told him that that was fine seeing that Reid is like a son to him just as we are like their family."

Everyone nodded at this statement. Pulling on his bulky coat Flack added,

"Well I told Mac that we would be there just as soon as everyone was ready…"

Before he could finish his sentence everyone stood up and pulled their coats on as well as Danny said,

"Well we're all ready to go too."

Seeing that with his own eyes Flack said,

"Well then let's get going."
