Chapter Nine
**************
Michelle Parker is a thirty-three years old married stay at home mother of two little boys was officially missing when her husband, Henry didn't seen or heard of his wife for about two days when Michelle went over to Staten Island to take care of and be with her mother who's dying of breast cancer. When Henry called his father in law to talk and see if Michelle is still here because two days before, Michelle called him and told him that her mother had just died of cancer and is coming home in and for a few hours before heading back to her parents' home to start planning her mother's memorial service and funeral.
That didn't happened.
Two days after getting that call, Henry got frustrated that his wife of only five years didn't came home and the moment he called his father in law and founded out that his wife came did left her childhood home to go to her current home but when Henry told him that Michelle didn't came to their home, Michelle's father, William Roberts said to his son in law, "Henry, please report that Michelle is missing!"
Eventually, Henry said back to William, "I will do that." and right away and getting his neighbor to watch his and Michelle's two boys, Henry went over to the nearby police station to report his wife, William's daughter, and Evan and Caleb's mother missing.
So at five minutes after five-thirty in the morning, Michelle Anne Parker was reported missing and at instead of a little under seven o'clock but with Martin and Danny's lateness, the team started looking for her at seven-forty in the morning.
After getting enough information from the family, friends and neighbors, the FBI agents started looking for her and a little under noon, Michelle Parker had been founded in rural New Jersey from looking through the credit card records.
From what Michelle told them, she didn't came home. Instead of that, Michelle picked a random direction which is south and headed down there until she ran out of gas and stopped at a motel to think about her loving mother's death and how she can't live without her because the both of them were really close.
The moment she blew off her cash and with no money to do anything else, she had to use her credit card instead to get the things she need with the walking distance of the local stripping malls. She knew that they might find her because of her using the credit card and she was ashamed of it plus she misses her two little boys and her husband.
After finishing the case and Michelle left the Federal Plaza with her husband and father to get back to her home to be with her sons and to recover her mother's loss with her family and friends surrounding her, it's now heading over to the large amount of the paperwork.
Five minutes into the paperwork, Martin Fitzgerald got a phone call. The moment he picked up his work phone, Martin put the phone to the right side of his face and greeted the caller, "Fitzgerald."
Hearing what the caller was telling him and eavesdropping on his friend's conversation, Danny knew that the caller might be Grace and from seeing the delighted look on Martin's face, it might be true.
"Okay, fine. Tell her that I am coming there. Good, thanks." said Martin and after saying that to the caller, he put the phone down before turning to Danny, Sam, Elena, and Viv and said to them with a big grin on his face, "Going downstairs now and will come back in a couple of minutes!"
Milliseconds after telling them that, Martin grabbed his suit jacket off of the chair he was sitting on, got out of his chair and ran out of the office with his female team mates staring at that and moments later, the three of them turned over to Danny and asked him, "Why Martin was acting like that?"
The moment he heard that question, Danny put down his pen and turned to the girls while saying and a huge smile had appeared on his face, "Apparently, Martin got himself a girlfriend over the summer!"
Surprised of the news, the girls stared at him and said at the same time, "WHAT?! WHEN?!"
Hearing that loudly from the girls and with the same smile on his face, Danny looked at them with his brown eyes and told them about when Martin got himself a girlfriend.
"Do you guys remember those two weeks when Martin went on his vacation?"
Remembering those two weeks without Martin, Sam just sulked down on her chair next to Elena and answered Danny's question by saying to him, "Yeah, I remembered those two weeks of the longest days of paperwork and at home, Brian was out of town and Finn was having a horrible rash on his butt and spend the nights crying!"
Disgusting of what he heard from Sam's mouth especially from the last couple of words she said to him by managing to crack a joke out of it, Danny looked at Sam's face again and with a big smirk on his face, he asked her, "Who did the crying, you or Finn?"
Mad about what she just heard, Sam was about to get out of her chair to hurt Danny who was at his desk about ten feet away from the Blonde agent, the man who just made her mad but Elena stopped her from killing her boyfriend by grabbing Sam's arm and said to her, "Sam, stop it. Danny was just making a joke!"
Staring at the agent next to her, Sam stared at Elena's dark brown eyes and said to her, "Yeah, right!"
Agreeing with Danny and Elena right now and from her desk, Viv turned to the three of them and defending Danny by saying to Sam, "Yeah, Sam. I agreed with Danny and Elena. He was making a joke and he will tell you that he's very sorry about it and won't do it again."
Moments after saying that to Sam, Viv turned to Danny who was listening to every word and gave him a face that said: "Danny, please tell her that you are very sorry about it and if you didn't do it right now, I'll kill you myself!"
Danny saw that look on Viv's face and got creeped out about it but he stopped the creepiness away from him by turning to Sam who was waiting for her apology and saying to the woman who needed that apology from him, "Sam, I'm really sorry about that and from now on, I'll only crack some jokes about Martin and Grace."
After seeing Sam putting some strays of blond hair behind her ear and telling Danny that she's fine about that, another question had to be answer. "Danny, her name is Grace. That's a nice name!" asked by Sam.
Hearing that from Sam, Danny nodded to her and said to her, "Yeah, that's her name, Grace Cahill." With her hazel eyes staring at him, Sam asked him another question. "Who else knew about her?"
Seconds later, Danny just told her that beside Martin, he and Elena knew about her and after seeing Sam and Viv and Elena smiling at him, a mischievous grin had appeared on Danny when he said to them, "I think that might be fine if you and Viv knew about it also but don't tell Jack about it. Not a single word because the three of you guys knew about the last time Martin had a girlfriend, right?"
The three of them nodded back to him, knowing about that time back in April and the beginning of May and after seeing that nod, Danny said to them, "Now, I am guessing that you guys were agreeing with that and now, who want to hear the scoop about Martin and Grace?"
Suddenly, the three female agents agreed with that by all raising their hands at about the same time and after seeing the hands up in the air, Danny smiled at that and began telling them about how much he knows about Grace Cahill back from the first time he founded out about her.
Ten minutes later and founded out many things about her, all of them agreed that Grace sounded like a great woman and they were hoping that Martin is a very happy man with Grace around plus they are hoping to see her that day which actually came true.
At the same moment, a smiling Martin came into the office while holding a brown-haired woman with soft blue eyes and a beautiful smile on her face's hand and once they founded Danny and the girls, talking to each other about something while not doing their desk work, with the same smile on his face while still holding his girlfriend's hand, Martin got their attention by clearing his voice loudly and the moment he got their attention to him, he said to them, "Guys, this is Grace Cahill. Honey, these are Sam, Elena, and Viv and you know Danny already."
Staring at Martin's team mates and friends, Grace smiled at them and greeted them by saying to them, "Hi."
The moment they heard from the woman next to Martin, the four of them smiled at her and greeted her hi back and from the first sight of her, the four of them know that this girl had made their friend happy and so will them.
A/N: I know that the first part of the chapter sounded like a horrible episode of Without a Trace but I am hoping that you are enjoying the chapter after that part and more chapters will be coming soon!
Another A/N: I had to ask you which guy: Gary Sinise or Thomas Gibson?
The reason why: There is another OC coming up in the next chapter and yes, this one is a man and he knows Grace before she met Martin (is this man her ex-boyfriend? The villain? Some random guy?) Well, I got two images of that man in my head right now and it's so hard to choose which one because I like them both!
The pics are in the profile to see what they looks like and I know that the two guys are Mac from CSI: NY and Hotch from Criminal Minds but you had to choose which one and tell me in the reviews so I can write up the next chapter!
Have a happy voting!
