Re: CSI- NY " Danvale Case".
After Mac had his team looking for Dr. Stormwell, he took Stella home. When they arrived Mac opened the door and found Gary crawling towards him. Picking up his son, he held him very closely.
"There's daddy's boy. How are you son?"
Smiling all bright eyed, Mac kissed his little head.
"Daddy you are home. Hi mommy."
"Hi Claire bear, come here to mommy."
As she walked over Stella picked her up, and thanked her neighbour for watching the children.
"Mommy is you okay? You have teardrop in your eyes."
"Mommy's fine sweetheart. Did you and Gary have breakfast yet?"
"We did mommy. Karen gave us pancakes, and Gary bear threw his at her."
Stella tried not to laugh. Over the past few weeks Gary for some reason seemed to like too throw his food at people, including his parents.
"Well...I'm sure he will grow out of it love."
"Did I throw my food mommy?"
"No. You never threw your food, just your toys."
"I not throw my toys. When mommy?"
"You did throw your toys, alot. Especially when it was clean up time."
"But I cleans up now. all my toys are away."
"I know that Claire. But when you were younger you would thorw your toys across the room, cause you knew it was nap time, and you didn't like nap time."
"oooohhh...okay mommy. I get down now?"
"Sure sweetheart."
Placing her daughter back on the floor, Mac got out the blanket and layed Gary on it.
"Now you know he won't stay there long Mac before he crawls off it."
"I know love. But it's adorable to watch him crawl."
Sitting down on the sofa, he asked....
"Are you sure you are going to be okay love. I'm really sorry we couldn't save her."
"I know Mac. I just wish it had turned out differently."
Wrapping his wife closer, he kissed her beautiful curls.
"I love you Stel, you know that. I promise, we will catch him."
"I know Mac. Do you want some breakfast?"
"No. Maybe just a coffee."
As Stella left to make the coffee, Mac got down on the ground with his children.
"What are you making with those blocks Claire bear?"
"A castle daddy. See, there's the tower, and in here is where the Princess lives."
As Claire showed her daddy. Gary made his way over and smacked at the blocks.
"Noooooooo Gary. That not nice."
Trying not to laugh, Mac picked up his son as he giggled.
"You my son, are a little terror today."
Giggling at his daddy again, he wrapped his arms around him."
"Dada."
"Now I's have to start all over," said Claire.
"I'm sure Gary is sorry Claire bear. How about daddy help you rebuild it?"
"No, it's okay daddy. I can do it."
When Stella came back in with the coffee, she seen Mac enthrawled in his children. As she watched she cried. So much love she knew her children had, saddened her all the more for Gwen. To have to grow up with a father who hated you enough to kill you over money was just unjust.
"Mac....."
"Yeah love."
"We need to make sure Gwen has a proper Memorial."
Laying his son back on the ground, he wrapped his wife in his arms again.
"I promise you Stella, she will."
