CSI:Miami Road Trip- We've Travelled a Long Way

Aww you can still call him Mister Miami all you want. *snif* It's so sad. YOU'RE BOTH LEAVING! ....You'd think I was prepared for that seeing as I wrote it.

Today

[Hummerhome, 3 days later]

Delko: MY BUTT IS ON FIRE! *runs around outside*

Speed: Uh oh, he ran out in his underwear again.

Horatio: *grabs fire extinguisher* I do not want another Wubba incident. *walks outside*

Katie: Where's everyone else?

Speed: Outside trying to stop the fire.

Katie: Well Eric shouldn't have sat in it.

Speed: He's not all there.

Katie: I'm going to go outside and pour some water everywhere. *leaves*

Horatio: *walks back in* There we go. His bum might be numb but it was his own fault. And I'm aware that I just rhymed.

Speed: Actually H, can I talk to you for a second?

Horatio: Sure.

Speed: I was going to tell you when we got back to Miami but...I resigned from the lab.

Horatio: ...Is it because of the menta-

Speed: No. I'm perfectly capable of doing my job. I just need a change. I mean, I get up every day and do the same thing every day and maybe it's for a lot of people, but it's not for m...

Horatio: What?

Speed: *shakes head* The point is I'm moving to California with Katie.

Horatio: *lifts brows* California. That's a big step.

Speed: We've also been talking about a family.

Horatio: *nods slowly*

Speed: I know it sounds completely crazy but...I really want to do this. This is what I want to do with the rest of my life.

Horatio: Well I'm...I'm happy for you.

Speed: I didn't think you'd approve.

Horatio: Knowing you, you would have done it anyway.

Speed: *tilts head* True.

Horatio: And Katie wants to do this too?

Speed: Yeah.

Horatio: Well then. *pats Speed on the back* It looks like you've got everything planned out.

Speed: I start next week.

Horatio: And this doesn't have anything to do with the fact that you just spent a month in a mental facility?

Speed: It made me think over a few things. I'm not angry with the world anymore, and it was one of the reasons I became a cop. I just don't see myself thriving in that kind of work environment anymore.

Horatio: You don't have to be angry to be a cop.

Speed: Are you trying to get me to stay?

Horatio: Is it working?

Speed: *smirks* No.

Horatio: Thought so.

Speed: Um...You don't have to worry about me anymore.

Horatio: Worry?

Speed: You might know me, but I can read you like a book. I'll be fine.

Horatio: I think you will too.

Speed: *holds out gun and badge*

Horatio: *looks down*

Speed: I'm not going to need these anymore.

Horatio: *takes gun and badge* ...

Speed: What?

Horatio: You uh...Cleaned your gun.

Speed: It's the least I can do.

Horatio: *looks up* You should keep your badge.

Speed: You keep it. *walks outside*

Horatio: *looks down at badge*

They Look At Me With Sad Eyes

[Hummerhome 10 pm]

Horatio: Okay everyone beware of the mosquitos.

Delko: Oh my God they're the size of my Grandma's cataracts!

Speed: ...They're a little bigger than that Eric.

Delko: They're like...Footballs!

Speed: Think smaller.

Delko: Baseballs?

Speed: More like golf balls.

Delko: That's still pretty big.

[Mosquito hits window]

Katie: *screams*

Anni: Ewww look at the goo!

Katie: It's poison! Don't touch it!

Anni: Ew it's human blood. Oh can we test it?

Horatio: Why?

Anni: I want to see who it bit.

Horatio: The Hummerlab shouldn't be used for evil.

Anni: Well we're not using it.

Horatio: No.

Anni: Dang.

Delko: Oh my God it's staring at me.

Speed: It's dead.

Carly: THERE'S ONE IN HERE!

All girls: *screaming*

Delko: *starts screaming*

Horatio: *rubs eyes*

Speed: *sigh*

Katie: SOMEONE KILL IT! *grabs Speed*

Speed: OW! OW! You're ripping my shirt!

Katie: KILL IT BEFORE I DIVORCE YOU!

Speed: Kill it yourself!

Katie: *screaming*

Carly: IT'S IN MY HAIR!

Delko: It must be attracted to the jam that was in there last month.

Carly: OR MAYBE BECAUSE OF THE CARBON MONOXIDE OR DIOXIDE OR SOME KIND OF OXIDE! *rolling around on the floor*

Katie: OH MY GOD THERE'S TWO MORE!

Missy: I HATE TEXAS! *runs around*

Delko: *screaming*

Speed: *frowns*

Horatio: *frowns*

Speed: Should we do something?

Horatio: They're just insects.

Speed: No kidding.

Katie: *screaming* THERE'S MORE HOW ARE THEY GETTING IN!

Carly: EVERYONE HIDE IN THE BATHROOM!

Katie: Wait, we can all fit in the bathroom?

Carly: Maybe if we all get in the shower.

Katie: *runs into bathroom*

All girls: *run into bathroom*

Delko: WAIT FOR ME! *runs into bathroom*

Speed: *scratches head*

Horatio: *cleans shades*

[Bathroom]

Katie: Okay okay okay. We need to set up a coalition. Eric, you go in front and the rest of us will swat.

Delko: Why do I have to be in front?

Katie: You're the man.

Delko: No I'm not. You do it.

Katie: ...You're not a man?

Delko: Not the kind that kills mosquitos at the front of the line. Have you seen war movies? The guy at the front always dies first.

Katie: Exactly.

Delko: I don't want to die.

Katie: Mosquitos can't kill you.

Delko: Unless they team up and suck out all of my blood.

Katie: Mosquitos can't suck out eight peints of blood.

Delko: Well these are jumbo mosquitos.

Katie: Not jumbo enough to kill you.

Delko: So you go at the front of the line.

Katie: I don't want to.

Delko: Why not?

Katie: Because...I don't like bugs.

Delko: Neither do I.

Katie: You're older.

Delko: I'm only 31.

Katie: You're still older.

Delko: ....You're older.

Katie: Get out there.

Delko: Wait a second...Do you hear that?

JC: ...It sounds like buzzing.

Missy: ...OH MY GOD THEY'RE IN THE SKYLIGHT!

Everyone: *screaming*

[Dining room]

Speed: Are they okay in there?

Horatio: They can sure scream.

Speed: They're women. They are made for screaming....Well except Eric.

Horatio: I think he's the loudest one.

Speed: Should we save them or something?

Horatio: I thought you weren't a cop anymore.

Speed: I'm not.

Horatio: What happened to that 'once a cop always a cop' saying?

Speed: That depends if you believe it or not.

Horatio: Do you believe it?

[Everyone runs out of bathroom]

Delko: THEY'RE EVERYWHERE!

Carly: I'M DYING!

Katie: *screaming*

[Everyone falls on floor]

Calleigh: Ow...Ow...Ow..That was my foot.

Delko: Sorry.

Katie: Eric you're in my hair.

Delko: Sorry.

Carly: Ow my arm!

Delko: Sorry.

JC: Geez Eric are you everywhere?

Delko: ...Sorry.

Katie: *looks up* Hey Tim.

Speed: Having fun down there?

Katie: Why aren't there mosquitos in here?

Speed: We opened a window and now they're gone.

Katie: What if they get in through the window again?

Speed: Horatio closed the window.

Katie: Oh. Good.

Speed: You want to stand up now?

Katie: Yes. *stands*

Speed: Are you okay?

Katie: Well my head hurts and I think I snapped something in my arm when I ran out of the bathroom. *sits on couch*

Horatio: Everyone up, we have to head back to Miami.

Delko: But we barely did anything here.

Horatio: I think you guys have had enough of Texas.

Calleigh: So where are we going now?

Horatio: ...Miami. Some of us have a plane to catch.

Calleigh: Who?

Speed: Us.

Calleigh: Why?

Delko: THEY'RE MOVING TO CALIFORNIA!

Calleigh: Why?

Speed: To live there.

Calleigh: Forever?

Speed: That's the idea.

Calleigh: Well...Gee way to bring down the party.

Delko: *crying*

Speed: Eric you already knew.

Delko: *hugs Speed* DON'T LEAVE!

Speed: *frowns* Let. Go.

Delko: Sorry. *lets go*

Speed: We're not gone yet.

Katie: ...How come no one hugged me?

JC: *hugs Katie* I STILL OWE YOU A FACIAL!

Katie: Aw. I feel loved.

JC: Okay I'm gonna fly to California with Horatio sometime and we'll go get that facial. Well, not me and Horatio. You and me.

Katie: Sounds good.

JC: And then you can give me a tour and we can go out for a latte and IT'LL BE FUN!

Katie: *wide-eyed* Sounds...Interesting. *whispers* Tim do something.

Speed: It's going to take us a while to settle in. I wouldn't want you to see our house until we get unpacked. And that could take weeks.

Katie: *elbows Speed*

Speed: Months.

JC: I see. Well, call me when you've finished settling in.

Katie: Oh we will.

TBC...........

 

Well, let's continue this thing.

Thanks for the great reviews! And, don't worry, we haven't seen the last of Tatie.

Overrated

[Hummerhome, 11pm]

[Speed/Katie's room]

Katie: *climbs in bed* Why are you always here first?

Speed: Because you insist on beautifying before getting in bed.

Katie: Well I have to look good all the time.

Speed: You do look good all the time.

Katie: *squints* Are you hitting on me?

Speed: I don't think that counts if we're already married.

Katie: *slaps Speed*

Delko: *knocks on door*

Katie: Come in.

Delko: *opens door* You guys aren't busy are you?

Speed: *sits up* No. What did you want?

Delko: Can I hang out here for a while?

Katie: Why?

Delko: Well...It's your last night with all of us and I want to make the most of it.

Speed: So you're going to sleep in here? Sorry Eric but I don't like sleepovers.

Katie: You can stay Eric.

Speed: He can?

Katie: Yes he can.

[Knocks on door are heard]

Katie: *laughs* Come in.

Calleigh: *walks in* We were wondering if you guys needed any company tonight?

Speed: *sigh*

Carly: *jumps on bed* Wow this thing is bouncy.

JC: Hey are these silk sheets? That's not fair. I want silk sheets.

Missy: *opens closet* Wow there's a lot of stuff in here.

Speed: *lays down* I get the feeling I'm not going to sleep tonight.

Calleigh: Sorry Tim.

Speed: *sigh*

Carly: I brought chocolate.

Katie: HECK YES! Tim put on a shirt.

Speed: I didn't think we'd have company.

Anni: Oh don't worry about it. *winks*

Speed: *frowns* Missy, pass me a shirt.

Missy: No problem. *throws shirt*

Katie: Oh those cherry filled thingies! I love those! *eats*

Carly: Guess what I brought....

Delko: *wide-eyed* SCRABBLE! *hugs Carly*

Carly: Ow.

Delko: Okay I want to play! I want to play!

JC: If you mention any sort of Wubba, you can't play anymore.

Delko: Deal.

[20 minutes later]

Speed: *frowns*

Katie: What?

Speed: Africa? You spelled Africa?

Katie: I got triple word score.

Speed: ...With Africa.

Katie: Why not?

Speed: That's against the rules. You can't spell something that's a continent.

Katie: It's not a continent.

Speed: Oh yeah? What's the definition of Africa?

Katie: Websters dictionary defines it as 'The incident where Speed went homocidal on Katie'.

Speed: *grabs tiles* If you can't play the game fair, don't play it at all.

Katie: I am playing it fair.

Speed: It's a proper name. You can't spell proper names.

Katie: I can so spell. Give me a word.

Speed: Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer.

Katie: Except that.

Speed: Loser.

Katie: I can't be a loser. We're on the same team.

Delko: Are you finished?

Katie: Yeah go ahead.

Delko: *puts down tiles* HA.

Missy: ...Eric that's not a word.

Delko: Yes it is.

Carly: Wubbs is not a word.

Delko: It's the ancient cousin of Wubba.

Carly: Okay this game isn't going to work if people don't take it seriously.

Calleigh: I'm taking it seriously.

JC: Yeah you've been staring at your tiles for twenty minutes and every time it comes to you, you yell 'pass'.

Calleigh: A player has to make her moves wisely.

Missy: It's not Chess, it's Scrabble.

Speed: Why are we playing this?

Delko: Because it's our favorite game.

Speed: Why can't we play Monopoly?

Katie: *slaps Speed*

Speed: Ow, what was that for?

Katie: The last time we played Monopoly, you were playing tongue tag with Calleigh.

Speed: *clears throat* So who's turn is it?

Katie: *frowns* Ours.

Carly: Ooh so does this mean you're not moving to California now?

Katie: What?

Carly: You're fighting.

Katie: We're not fighting. We're having a discussion.

Speed: You keep throwing things that happened forever ago in my face.

Katie: Well you shouldn't have done it.

Delko: GUYS! GUYS!

Speed/Katie: WHAT!

Delko: ...Nothing.

Katie: *slaps Speed*

Speed: Slapping me isn't going to make any of the past dissapear.

Katie: Yeah but it makes me feel better.

Speed: No, I know what you make you feel better.

Katie: What?

Speed: Nothing.

Katie: You said it, you might as well tell me.

Speed: Nevermind.

Katie: What is it?

Delko: *raises hand* I KNOW!

Speed: *throws pillow*

Delko: OW! That one had a zipper on it.

Katie: *slaps Speed*

Speed: *frowns*

Katie: ...You're not going to hit me are you?

Speed: No.

Katie: Good.

Speed: *smirks*

Katie: OH NO YOU DON'T! *jumps out of bed* Okay guys, a little help.

Delko: Hey if he wants to attack you, that's your business.

Speed: *gets out of bed*

Katie: NO! *grabs doorhandle* Hey who locked me in here?

Calleigh: Whoops. So that door locks from the outside.

Speed: Come here Katie.

Katie: I don't think so. *runs under bed* OW! Okay..This bed doesn't have an underneath.

Speed: *grabs Katie*

Katie: *screams*

Carly: Aw what a loving relationship.

Katie: OKAY YOU KNOW I HATE BEING TICKLED!

Speed: And that's exactly why you deserve it more.

Katie: AHH!

Missy: Oh can we help?

Speed: Sure.

Katie: NO! NO! STOP!

Carly: Aw I want to help!

JC: Now THIS is a party.

Katie: YOU ALL SUCK!
