I decided to change this story to Natalia and Ryan. Last nights scene completely won me over! So this story is Ryan/Natalia! Hopefully you all will like this story!!! :)

Chapter 1

Natalia opened the door to her house. She breathed in a sigh and let it out.

"Mommy!" Brinley yelled as she ran to her mom.

"Hey baby." Natalia said picking her up and hugging her.

"How was she?" Natalia said looking at her mom.

"Good. Like always."

"When am I ever bad mommy?" Brinley said as she played with Natalias long, brown hair.

"Oh that's right, you never get into trouble." Natalia said as she smiled at her daughter and then kissed her head and sat her down. Brinley ran off to her room upstairs and played with her toys.

"So, how was work?" Natalias mom said as she followed Natalia into the kitchen.

"You know, the usual. Hot and humid, one case after another." Natalia said as she gulped down her bottle of water.

"So, have you thought any more about settling down anytime soon?"

"Mom, seriously, we're not having this conversation again are we?" Natalia said as she threw her bottle away then turned around and crossed her arms over her chest.

"What? Why not? Nat, baby, that little girl needs a father figure in her life." Natalias mom said as she walked up to her daughter.

"Mommy! Look at what mimi got me today!" Brinley screamed as she ran down the stairs and showed Natalia her new doll.

"Oh my goodness, she's so pretty! What is her name?" Natalia said as she bent down to her little girl.

"Isabelle." Brinley said smiling brightly.

"That's a pretty name." Natalia said smiling back at her. Brinley ran into the living and played with her new doll as Natalia and her mom watched.

"Mom, I'm sorry for going off earlier, it's just, I think I just want to let that chapter in my life happen on its own."

"Ok, I completely understand, baby." Natalias mom said as she tucked a piece of hair behind her daughters ear.

"Well I guess I better go." Natalias mom said as she gathered her things.

"Brinley come hug mimi goodbye." Natalia said as she followed her mom to the door. Brinley ran up to her grandma and gave her a big hug.

"I love you." Her grandma said as she kissed her head.

"I love you too mimi." Brinley said kissing her back.

"Bye baby. Love you." Natalias mom said as she kissed her daughters forehead.

"Bye mom. Love you too." Natalia said as she watched her mom walk to her car. Natalia closed her door and then locked it and turned around and let out a sigh.

"Come on booger lets get you in bed." Natalia said picking up her daughter and walking her upstairs. Natalia laid her down in her bed and pulled the covers up over her small frame. She kissed her little head and stood up to walk out.

"Mommy..." Brinley said as Natalia stood up.

"Yea?"

"Can you tell me a bed time story?"

"Yea sure." Natalia said laying down beside her daughter on her bed.

"Once upon a time there was this little girl named Brinley and she had this teddy bear that she loved dearly..."

"Oooh can his name be Clive?" Brinley asked with big brown eyes like her moms.

"Sure. Well one day Clive went missing and Brinley was so upset. She cried and cried. She had looked everywhere for him and couldn't find him...." Natalia said as she started falling to sleep along with her daughter who was now asleep.


Reviews are greatly appreciated!:thumbsup:
 
I'm going to move this over to the Fan Fiction forum, as that's where fics/scenes/chapters usually reside. :)

*moved*
 
Sorry I haven't updated in forever! I've been so busy! For being patient I'll treat you to 2 chapters!! :) Hope you enjoy!!!

Chapter 2
The next morning....

"Mommy..." Brinley said as she tapped her mother on the arm. Natalia slowly opened her eyes and then jumped up realizing it was bright outside.

"Crap!" Natalia said as she looked at her watch then at her phone to see she has 2 missed calls from Horatio.

"What is it mommy?"

"You're late for school and mommy is late for work." Natalia said running into her room starting the water to her shower. After Natalia took her 20 minute shower she put on her makeup and clothes, then did her hair. After that, she went into her daughters room and picked out her outfit.

"Come here lets get you dressed." Natalia said as she helped her daughter change.

"What do you want for breakfast?" Natalia said as they walked downstairs to the kitchen.

"Eggs and bacon and grits!"

"Um, how bout we do that another morning. How about cereal?" Natalia said pulling out a box of honey nut cheerios.

"Mommy, that's your cereal. I don't want that." Brinley said as she began to pout.

"Brinley please for mommy just eat it this one time!" Natalia said getting frustrated.

"Fine." Brinley said as Natalia poured her a bowl of cheerios. After Brinley ate Natalia helped her brush her teeth and they set off. Natalia walked Brinley up to her class and bent down to her level.

"I love you." Natalia said smiling at Brinley.

"I love you too mommy." Brinley said as she hugged Natalia. Natalia kissed her head and then left for work. She ran through Starbucks and then drove the rest of the 5 miles to work. She hopped onto the elevator and hit the floor that she needed to go to. As soon as the doors opened Natalia fled off the elevator.

"Well there she is, miss fashionably late." Eric said teasing Natalia.

"Not one word Delko." Natalia said checking in.

"You even managed to get coffee." Eric said as he watched her sip on it.

"Yea no breakfast. I'll be in DNA." Natalia said speed walking to DNA. She finished her coffee and threw it into the trash as she walked in. She saw Ryan standing there waiting on her.

"I'll get on it right away." Natalia said taking the folder from his hands.

"It's about time." Ryan said turning towards her.

"Listen I got the third degree from Eric, I don't need it from you too." Natalia said as she looked up at him starting the test samples.

"Wow, someone is in a bad mood today."

"I just had a long night ok?."

"Need to talk about it?" Ryan said placing his elbows on the table and leaning on them looking at her.

"Not really." Natalia said as she placed her hands on the table leaning on them as her stomach growled. She placed a hand over her stomach to try and keep it quiet.

"Well, how bout you get lunch then maybe you can talk about it?" Ryan said smiling.

Natalia rolled her eyes knowing she wasn't going to win.

"Fine." Natalia said as Codis found a hit.

"Thanks!" Ryan said as he grabbed the results.

2 hours passed by and Natalias stomach was about to go insane.

"1 more hour." Natalia thought to herself as her phone started going off.

"Boa Vista?"

"Natalia? This is Mrs. Mickie from Miami Dade Elementary."

"Oh Hi."

"Hi. Listen, Brinley has a fever and I was wondering if you could by any chance come get her?"

"Um, yea I'll have my mom come by and get her. Thanks." Natalia said as she hung up the phone. She called her mom and she went to go talk to Horatio.

"Horatio?" Natalia said as she knocked on the door.

"Come in." He said and Natalia did so.

"Listen, Brinley is running a fever and my mom is going to get her but I was wondering if I could take the rest of the day off to be with her."

"Yes, that's perfectly fine."

"Ok, thank you so much!" Natalia said as she walked out of his office. She gathered her things and quickly went home.

At her house....

"Mom..." Natalia said as she walked into her home.

"Hey." Natalias mom said as she walked downstairs.

"Hey. How is she?"

"Well, it read 101 on the dot. She's asleep right now."

"Ok, thanks for getting her."

"Anytime."

It was 7 at night and Natalias mom had gone to check on Brinley and Natalia was making soup when she heard a knock at her door. She walked over to it and opened it.

"Ryan?" Natalia said surprised.

"Hey to you to." Ryan said as he smiled at how she was dressed in yoga pants and a comfortable, white, vneck shirt that fit to her body perfectly.

"Sorry, hey." She said smiling.

"What brings you here?" Natalia asked crossing her arms.

"Well seeing how someone skipped out on lunch so I'm assuming you're sick?" Ryan said as he crossed his arms and Natalia closed her eyes as she had forgotten.

"Sorry about that. I wasn't feeling to well and I meant to call someone but I forgot."

"Well what's wrong with right now?" Ryan said holding up some Mexican food.

"Um...." Natalia thought for a second as she turned around and stared up the stairs.

"Nothing, come in." Natalia said stepping aside.

"Thank you."



Chapter 3

As an hours passed they talked about the days events and life.

"Well I guess I better go. Don't wanna keep you from oversleeping." Ryan said smiling down at her while she drank her coffee.

"Thanks for tonight. I had fun." Natalia said smiling.

"Me too. I guess I'll see you at work tomorrow?"

"I don't know, probably not. Still not feeling to well."

"Ok, well get better soon." Ryan said hugging her tiny frame. They both felt the electricity shoot them as they hugged. Neither of them wanting to let go. Ryan finally broke apart from her.

"Well I guess I better go. Night." Ryan said walking out the door.

"Night." Natalia said staring blankly at the door.

"Who was that?!" Natalias mom said as she came running down the stairs with Brinley making Natalia jump.

"A friend I work with. And don't scare me like that."

"Sorry. He was kinda cute."

"He's a friend mom."

"A cute friend."

"I'm hungry mommy." Brinley said as stood by her moms side.

"Here eat this soup." Natalia said sitting her up in a chair and handing her a bowl of soup.

After Brinley ate her soup Natalia tucked her in bed. She walked downstairs and found her mom sitting on the couch. She went and sat down beside her. They sat in silence for a few minutes before her mom spoke.

"What's bothering you?"

"Nothing." Natalia said looking out her back door as the moon let light in.

"something's wrong. I've known you your whole life and I can tell when something's bothering you."

"It's just sometimes I could punch Nick in the face." Natalia said as she chuckled a little bit.

"Yea but if you would've you wouldn't have that little one upstairs."

"I know, and I'm thankful for her cause she is what keeps me going everyday. I just wish it could've been with someone else you know?" Natalia said looking at her mom.

"Yea I understand. You'll find someone someday. Just gotta give it time." Natalias mom said as she kissed her daughters head.

"It's so weird to think 3 years ago he died." Natalia said playing with her hair.

"Yea it is. At least he can't hurt you anymore." Natalias mom said offering a smile.

"I hear ya." Natalia said smiling.

"Well I'm gonna go. Let me know if you need anything with her tomorrow."

"Alright. Love you." Natalia said as she walked her mom out the door.

----the next day----

"H. Where's Natalia?" Ryan asked as they all sat in the breakroom.

"She wasn't feeling good yesterday so I told her to take as much time off that she needed until she felt better."

"Natalia is taking a few days off? That's not like her at all!" Ryan said taking a sip of his coke. After a few more moments of sitting there their phones went off. They all packed up and headed to the crime scene.

"Alexx, what do we have?" Horatio said pulling his sunglasses off.

"Mutiple stab wounds to the abdomen, gun shot to the head. And it looks like her feet and wrists have been tied together with something. Maybe fishing wire?"

"Ok, let's get her on your table asap." Horatio said walking out of the house and to his Hummer.

30 minutes later----

"I hope you have something for me Alexx." Calleigh said walking in the morgue.

"You can take her clothes and here is the bullet." Alexx said handing the stuff to her.

"Thank you Alexx." Calleigh said as she walked out of the morgue with the things in her hands.

DNA---

"Maxine, have you found anything with the biologicals found inside out victim?" Eric said walking in.

"I haven't found anything yet Delko."

"We gotta get this guy before he kills again." Eric said as he went and stood by her waiting for the computer to find someone. As the seconds passed, they finally heard the noise and they both turned they're attention to the computer.

"Mark Ruby. Think he's the killer?"

"I don't know but it's a start. Thanks Val." Eric said grabbing the paper and walking out.
 
Here's an update again!!! I'm gonna try and post regularly! I Hope you enjoy it!!! :)

Chapter 4

"May I ask what I'm here for?" Mark said as he sat down.

"Have you seen this woman before?" Eric said throwing the folder onto the table.

"Oh my God, that's Michelle." Mark said staring blankly at the picture before him.

"Who, who's Michelle?" Horatio asked holding his sunglasses between his fingers.

"She, she's my wife." Mark said looking up at them both.

"What happened to her?"

"We found her dead in your house this morning."

"Does she have anyone that would want to kill her?" Eric said staring the man down.

"No, I mean she had a few people that didn't like her, I mean everyone has those few but I didn't think they would want to kill her. What, what do I do?"

"You just go be with family." Eric said as they walked out of the room.

After work, Ryan went to Panera and got himself a BBQ salad and some soup. He headed towards Natalias house. As he got there he grabbed the food and walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. He stood their waiting until he heard the door knob turn. He looked down and saw a little figure in the crack of the door. The weirdest thing is how much she looked like Natalia.

"Hi." Brinley said as she stood shyly staring at Ryan.

"Hey, is um, Natalia here?" Ryan said confused.

"Mommy! There's a man at the door for you." Brinley said leaving the door open and running to get Natalia.

"Brinley who is it?" Natalia said coming out from her room.

"I don't know. It's a man and he has food in his hands. I got scared." Brinley said as Natalia picked her up and held her on her hip and walked to the front door.

"Ryan?" Natalia said as she looked at him.

"Hey. I um, brought you some soup." He said smiling at her.

"Oh, would you like to come in?" Natalia said as she stepped back and pointed to behind her.

"Sure." Ryan said coming into her house. They walked into the kitchen and Ryan sat down the food.

"Who is he mommy?"

"He's a friend of mine that I work with."

"Oh so he's not a stranger?"

"No, he's not a stranger." Natalia said chuckling a bit and Ryan smiled.

"Here why don't you eat this soup then go to your room and rest." Natalia said as she took the soup the living room and turned on the tv.

"Ok." Brinley said following. After Natalia got Brinley situated she walked back to the kitchen.

"Sorry about that." Natalia said walking past Ryan.

"It's fine. I thought you were sick so that's why I brought you the soup."

"No, I'm fine. She's has the fever and a pretty nasty cough." Natalia said getting out wine for her and then a beer for Ryan. As Natalia took a sip of her wine Ryan watched her. She was so beautiful he couldn't stand it. Her eyes, he could stare at all the time. Her lips, he just wanted to wrap her up and kiss her all night long. Her hair looked as soft as he didn't even know and he just wanted to run his fingers through it. Her body, well that spoke for itself. Every asset and feature spoke for itself.

"Earth to Wolfe?" Natalia said waving her hand in front of him.

"Oh sorry! I was in deep thought." He said smiling shyly.

"I gotta go put her in bed she fell asleep on the couch."

"Ok." Ryan said as he watched her go over and pick her daughter up and carry her upstairs. He followed. He watched her put her in the princess themed bed which made him smile. Natalia covered her daughter up and then kissed her head. Natalia stood up and walked towards the door until she felt someone pull her back.

"Mommy..."

"Yea?" Natalia said turning around.

"I love you." Brinley said smiling.

"I love you too." Natalia said kissing her head again as Ryan smiled at them.

"Night mommy."

"Night Brinley." Natalia said as she walked out of her daughters room and closed the door behind her. She and Ryan walked back downstairs and into the living room and sat down on the couch.

"Sorry about that."

"It's ok. You're a mom. It's what you gotta do." Ryan said smiling.

"Yea." Natalia said chuckling and taking a sip of her wine. They sat in quiet for a few minutes before Ryan broke the silence.

"So, how long have you been a mommy?"

"5 years." Natalia said looking at him.

"Well, you're pretty good at it."

"Thanks. It's a long story."

"Well, I'm all ears." Ryan said smiling at her. Natalia looked at him for a second and then took a deep breath.

"Horatio is the only one who knows this story beside you."

"Ok."

"Well, about 6 years ago I got married. His name was Nick and at the time I thought he was the one. You know the one who was gonna take care of me, love me, be the father to my children, but most of all stand beside me through thick and thin. I got pregnant with her 1 year after we got married. He kinda freaked out a bit but he moved on from that and excepted it. After she was born, he got really obssesive with me and her. He didn't want us going out anywhere without him. I was pretty much locked at our house 24/7. 2 years later he, he started hitting me. I told myself it was just a faze and he would get through it but that never happened. It got worse and so I went to the cops and they arrested him. He got bail and he came straight to me for revenge. He broke into my house and I called the police and when they got there, he was holding me with the gun to my head and told them if they stepped any closer I would die. They sent in a team from behind and shot him in the leg. He fell to the ground and I ran and grabbed Brinley and they escorted me out. They arrested him again."

"Wow." Ryan said a little stunned.

"While he was in jail some of the inmates got together and killed him. When I found out I didn't know what to do or feel. I was thankful cause I knew he could never hurt me again but he was my husband and the father to my daughter. I havent told Brinley that her daddy isn't ever coming back. She thinks he's on a vacation, a very long vacation. I know I'll have to tell her when she gets older but right now she's too young to understand."

"Nat, I'm so sorry." Ryan said as he hugged her.

"It's just really hard sometimes not having anyone to help with her or me." Natalia said as she finally let all her emotions fall from her body.

"Shhh, Nat, you're an amazing mom and you do what you can. No one is perfect. Brinley has one of the strongest and most beautiful mothers in the world. She looks up to you for that. If you ever need help you know you can call me or anyone in the lab for that matter." Ryan said rubbing her back soothing her.

"I know. I just wish it was easier." Natalia said pulling away from him and looking down at her hands.

"It's not supposed to be easy Nat." Ryan said then lifted her chin.

"You are one of the most beautiful and strongest women I know. Don't weigh yourself down with regret and doubt." Ryan said rubbing her chin lightly. Natalia smiled a small smile and let out a sigh. Ryan wiped away her tears and smiled at her.

"There's that 100 watt smile. Everyone at the lab loves you Nat and so does your family. And that little one upstairs."

"I know."

Chapter 5

Ryan tucked a piece of hair behind Natalias ear.

"I guess I better go." Ryan said getting up and smiling down at her.

They walked to the door and Natalia unlocked it.

"It was good talking to you Ryan."

"You too. I guess I'll see you sometime soon."

"Yea, whenever she gets better."

"Alright goodnight." Ryan said leaning in and kissing her on her head.

"Night." Natalia said as he did so. Natalia watched him get into his car and leave. She shut the door and turned around and rested her head against it. She sighed and then made her way to her room and got in bed.

When Natalia woke up the next morning she heard the tv on downstairs. She got up and walked downstairs to find her daughter watching tv on the couch. She smiled to herself and walked over to the couch and sat down by her daughter.

"What you watching?" Natalia said picking Brinley up and placing her on her lap.

"Animal channel."

"Oh, you feeling any better?" Natalia said running her fingers through her daughters long, brown hair.

"Yes mam."

"Well that's good. Hopefully by Monday you will be able to go to school again." Natalia said kissing her head and then going to the kitchen and getting a bottled water before returning to the living room.

"Mommy?"

"Yea?"

"I like Ryan."

"You do?" Natalia said sitting on the couch.

"Yea. I think he would make a great daddy!" Brinley said hopping over to her mom.

"You do?" Natalia said as she looked at her.

"Yea. Do you like him?" Brinley said playing with her moms hair.

"Well, I've never really thought about him like that Brinley. He's always been a good friend of mine."

"Well, I think he likes you." Brinley said as she pointed into her moms chest on the you.

"Oh you do? And how do you know that?" Natalia asked taking her daughters hands and holding them.

"Cause I just do." Brinley said smiling.

"Oh really? Do you know the tickle monster?" Natalia said as she laid Brinley along the couch and started tickling her.

"Mommy! Stop!" Brinley said as she let out a fistful of giggles and as she squirmed. Natalia tickled her until her hands cramped up. Natalia helped Brinley sit up.

"I hate you!" Brinley said as she tried to pout.

"Brinley Nicole!" Natalia said as her eyes got big.

"I'm just kidding mommy!" Brinley said as she attacked Natalia.

"You better be! Go clean your room." Natalia said as she sat her daughter on her legs.

"I don't want to clean my room." Brinley said crossing her arms.

"I don't want to hear you complain. Go clean and maybe we'll go get ice cream." Natalia said as Brinleys eyes got big.

"Ice cream? Ok!" Brinley said jumping off Natalia. Natalia popped her bottom as she walked away. Brinley turned around and looked at her mom. Natalia pointed at her and Brinley took off upstairs. An hour later Brinley came into Natalias room.

"I'm finished mommy!"

"Ok. I'm almost ready." Natalia said as she went to her closet and pulled out jeans and a white, vneck tshirt and her white nike tennis shoes. She threw them on and she and Brinley set out for ice cream.

"What flavor you want?" Natalia said as she looked in her rearview mirror.

"Chocolate chip cookie dough!" Brinley said as they pulled into the parking lot. Natalia got her out and they walked up to the window.

"Yes can I have one scoop in a bowl of chocolate chip cookie dough and one scoop in a bowl of rocky road with hot fudge on the top?"

"Yes mam coming right up." The girl said and closed the window.

"Natalia?" Ryan said walking up to her. He was amazed at how well she pulled off her outfit.

"Ryan? What are you doing here?"
 
I'm glad you like it! And I'm not a real R/N fan either! I'm more of an EDeN fan. Always have been, always will be! I can change it back to Eric/Natalia if you want me too! I prefer them anyway! lol But I'm glad you like it!!! :)

Oh this pairing can remain, you don't have to change it else she would be stoned.

For now Nat & Brinley is my fave pair!! :lol:
 
Haha ok! I'm thinking about uploading it to Fanfiction.net so if I do I'll def do EDeN! And I'm glad you like Brinley! :) Here's an update!!!



Chapter 6

"I come here every Saturday."

"Oh." Natalia said as the window opened.

"One scoop in a bowl of chocolate chip cookie dough and one scoop in a bowl of rocky road with hot fudge on the top?" The girl said as she placed them out the window. Natalia took her card out and then felt a hand keep her from handing the girl her card.

"The usual Mr. Wolfe?" The girl said as she smiled at him.

"Yea and put theirs on my card." Ryan said as she shut the window.

"The usual? You come here that often?" Natalia said looking up at him as she took a bite of her ice cream.

"Yea." Ryan said as he went to go grab his ice cream and card. Natalia grabbed Brinleys ice cream and together Natalia and Ryan headed over to the bench where Brinley was sitting.

"Here you go baby." Natalia said sitting the ice cream down.

"Thank you mommy."

"You should be thanking Mr. Ryan. He's the one who got it for you." Natalia said smiling at her daughter.

"Oh, thank you Mr. Ryan." Brinley said smiling at him with an ice cream face.

"You're welcome miss Brinley." Ryan said smiling back her.

"Come here you have ice cream on your face." Natalia said taking a napkin and wiping her face. They sat and talking for about 30 minutes and then finally got up and threw their cups away. Ryan walked them to Natalias car.

"Bye Mr. Ryan." Brinley said as she hugged Ryan and Natalia opened the door to put her in the seat.

"Bye Brinley." Ryan said as he hugged her back. He watched Natalia put Brinley in the car and shut the door.

"Thanks again Ryan." Natalia said smiling at him.

"You're welcome Nat." Ryan said smiling back. They had an awkward moment of silence.

"Well, I guess I better go." Ryan said with his hands in his pockets.

"We had fun." Natalia said as she opened her door.

"Me too." Ryan said watching her start to get into her car.

"Bye." Natalia said as he started walking away.

"Bye." Ryan said as he turned around. Ryan turned around to walkaway but stopped and turned around.

"Natalia." Ryan said running back before she shut the door.

"Yea?" Natalia said getting back out of the car.

"Would you like to go get dinner with me tonight?"

"Um, sure." Natalia said smiling.

"Ok, I'll pick you up around 7." Ryan said as he turned around to walkaway. Natalia got in her car and sat for a second.

"What is it mommy?"

"I think mommy is going out tonight."

"With Mr. Ryan?" Brinley said as she got excited.

"Yea." Natalia said smiling. She backed out her car and called her mom and asked her to watch Brinley. Her mom came over and kept Brinley occupied while Natalia got ready.

"How do I look?" Natalia said as she walked downstairs in skinny jeans, a Kelly green, v-neck shirt that was short in the front(to where it came to the top of her jeans)and long in the back with lace going halfway down the back of the shirt and a brown tank under it, and brown high-heeled shoes. Her hair was straight and her makeup was perfect.

"You look stunning." Natalias mom said as she looked at her daughter. Natalia smiled at her mom before getting tackled by her daughter.

"Mommy! You look beautiful!" Brinley said holding onto her leg.

"Thank you baby." Natalia said rubbing her daughters head. The doorbell rang not to long after that.

"Wish mommy good luck!" Natalia said as she smiled to her daughter.

"Good luck mommy!" Brinley said as Natalia opened the door.

"Hey." Ryan said smiling as Natalia opened the door.
