first fan fic - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TDfan69 · 08-12-2003, 01:43 AM

Okay, instead of constantly demanding other people to please post more of their fan fic, I thought I would try something... please,don't shoot(that is a REQUEST and not the title)

Nate and CD stepped off the elevator on CD's floor. They were carrying take-out and a couple of movies they had rented. "So the other guy says, that's okay, I had to get up to answer the phone anyway." Nate grinned. "Nate, that is your worst joke ever",CD groaned. Actually,she liked his jokes, but would never admit it. They turned the corner to find a young girl sleeping in front of CD's door. "Well, well, what have we here?"Nate asked.CD looked at him, and then shook the girl's shoulder. "Hey, Sleeping Beauty, wake up." The girl woke up.looking a bit scared and confused. She stood up quickly. Are you Candace?" she asked. "Yeah, I am,who are you?" CD said. Nate interrupted. "Why don't we go inside" he suggested. CD unlocked the door,and the three went inside. Nate went into the kitchen to put the food down, and CD took the girl into the living room. "Now, what was your name?" CD asked. This was too weird. Teenage girls didn't camp out on her doorstep everyday,especially ones she didn't know. "My name is Kelly," the girl started.She was looking very nervous now. Nate came in the room. "What did I miss?" he asked, sitting on the arm of a chair. "Not much" CD answered. She looked at Kelly. "Can we get to the point here?" How do you know me?" Kelly looked at her. "My step-dad was Larry James", she said. CD got quiet. She looked at Nate, and said"Can I see you for a moment?" Nate followed CD to the entryway."Look, I need to deal with this. I will explain it to you later, but can I just call you later?" Nate looked at her. "Are you okay?" he asked. "Yeah, but I need to do this alone right now. I will call you later." Nate gave her a quick kiss. "Alright, he said, but if you need me, call."

Well, you will see.....btw, I made up the name for this character because I didn't remember if this person's name was ever mentioned on the show. If it was, feel free to correct me. Here goes:

CD closed the door and leaned against it for a moment. Now what? she wondered. She went back into the living room,where Kelly was looking out the window."so who was that guy?" Kelly asked CD, turning around.CD stared incredulously at this girl."A friend, and never mind. What are you doing here, and how do you know about me?" CD was playing hardball here, but her quiet evening was ruined,and there hadn't been too many of them lately. Kelly looked at her, not sure how to go on. This probably hadn't been a good idea, but Candace had been her last hope. "Larry and my mom were killed last year in an accident,"she said softly. CD was stunned. Her father, who she NEVER gave a second thought to, was dead? How in the world did he even know anything about her or where she lived? Yet, he must have,because how else would this kid know? Kelly continued. "A few months after the accident, I was going through some of my mom's stuff. I came across a letter that Larry had gotten from your mom,I guess. It had your name and address." Kelly walked over to CD. "I decided I wanted to meet you. I always wanted a sister, and even though you aren't a real sister, I was curious. I also thought maybe you didn't know about your dad." Okay,so this wasn't the whole truth, but maybe Candace would believe her. She just needed a place to stay for a few days......

How is that??????

CD DeLorenzo · 08-12-2003, 08:03 PM

wow, that's great! Please write more!

And I don't think his name ever had been mentioned. Her mom's name is Polly Dankow though. So I guessed the Dankow is her maiden name and maybe was her dad's name? But could also be her mom's maiden name if she went back to that after her dad left them when she was 10.

So please write more! Great story so far!!!!!!

candace~n~nathan · 08-12-2003, 08:11 PM

This is an awesome fic!!!

Must have more!!!!

Okay, that's what I figured. That was a great ep with her mom, but I don't think they have ever really dealt with the dad part, so I started playing around with it.... thanks for the info

Next installment-

CD just looked at her. She did not completely believe what Kelly was saying, and thought she looked scared about something. "Where do you live?" she asked, "Does someone know where you are?" It was getting late, and CD was beginning to wonder if she was going to have to drive this kid someplace. Kelly hesitated, then said easily, "Oh, I live in San Ramon. I live with my aunt now. She knows I came, just said I should call if I couldn't find you, and she would come get me." CD was dumbfounded. Who on earth would let a young girl roam the streets of San Francisco looking for a stranger? "Why don't you go and call her in the other room?" CD suggested. "You can tell her you will stay here for the night, and tomorrow we will play by ear." Kelly left to make her call, and CD picked up her cell and dialed Nate. "I need you to do me a favor," she said when he answered. She talked to him for a few minutes about what she wanted, and then hung up. She walked into the living room, where Kelly was sitting on the couch. Kelly stood quickly and handed CD the phone. "I called my aunt and she said to thank you for letting me stay." CD looked at her. "You look tired, would you like to get some sleep?" Kelly said yes and picked up her backpack. 'The bathroom is down the hall on your left," CD said. Kelly left the room and CD got sheets for the sleeper sofa. Kelly came back out just as CD was finishing the bed. "All set?" CD asked. Kelly nodded. "Thanks for letting me stay, Candace." CD smiled. "CD," she said. Kelly looked at her."What?" "I go by CD now,not Candace." "Oh, that's cool." CD started for her bedroom,and told Kelly if she needed anything to just come knock. Once in her room, she changed for bed and waited for Nate to call. She didn't have to wait long. "Hey," Nate said. I got the info you wanted. Looks like your dad last lived in Fresno, and did die in a car wreck with his wife. There was some mention of the woman having a young daughter. Social Services put the girl into the custody of her maternal aunt, a Dianne Andrews in Bakersfield. That's all the info I could get for tonight from Social Services." "Nate, she's lying to me for some reason. She told me she lives in San Ramon, and that her aunt knows she's hereand that all is well. What do I do now?" "Well, I guess you are going to have to wait until she trusts you to tell you the truth," Nate said. "She probably wants to make sure that you aren't going to put her on the next bus out of here." CD agreed. "Hey, can you cover for me at work tomorrow?" I think I need to take the day off." "Sure," Nate said. "Don't worry." "I love you, Nate" CD said. It was getting hrder and harder to say goodnight. They had been dating for nearly a year, and had known each other for three. They 'd talked about marriage a couple of times,but CD was cautious. Nate understood that and understood even more about CD wanting to keep the relationship out of the bedroom.She needed to know that a man loved her for her, and not because of sex. He hated to think of how much she had been hurt in her life by men."I love you too, he said and they hung up. CD fell asleep after that,dreaming of Nate. She woke up a couple of hours later to Kelly screaming.

TDfan69 · 08-13-2003, 01:01 AM

the saga continues.......

"Stop! Don't touch me! Leave me alone,please! CD ran out to the living room, having put her gun in her waistband. She flipped on a late and realized Kelly was having a nightmare. CD went over to the bed. "Kelly, Kelly, wake up, you're having a bad dream." Kelly woke up and looked at CD with a scared face. "Do you want to talk about it?" CD asked. "No, I'm okay, she said. Sorry I disturbed you." CD shook her head. Don't worry, about it. Do you want me to stay until you fall asleep?" Kelly said no, and laid back down and closed her eyes. CD went back to her room and tossed and turned until morning. In the morning, CD got up and got dressed. She went to see if Kelly was awake. Kelly wasn't in bed, and there was no sign of her in the apartment. Now what? She sat down and called Nate. "She's gone," CD said when Nate answered.

Sorry to stop here,but will be back tomorrow!

CD DeLorenzo · 08-13-2003, 01:11 AM

wow, it's really great!

can't wait for the next part tomorrow

yay!

TDfan69 · 08-13-2003, 01:29 PM

okay, here is more....

"What do you mean gone?" Nate asked. "I got up this morning, and there is no sign of her.I need to stay here in case she comes back. I don't know what else to do." Nate told her he would keep his eyes open for Kelly,but both agreed not to get the department involved yet. CD thought Kelly might be scared if she knew the police were looking for her, and CD was not even sure if Kelly knew CD was a police officer. She was frustrated. She had to stay put and staying put was not fun.She decided to try calling Kelly's aunt,maybe the aunt could shed some light on what Kelly's problem was. "Hello?" a woman answered,sounding a bit out of it. "Is this Dianne Andrews?" CD asked."Yes, who are you?" The woman sounded like she was on something,CD thought. Great. She was beginning to see what Kelly's life was like. "My name is CD DeLorenzo.I am Larry James' daughter." "Yeah,so, what do you need?" Dianne said snappily. She could care less about this CD person and even less about Larry......... "Well, I just wanted to let you know that Kelly stayed with me last night,but when I got up this morning,she was gone. I was wondering if you knew of she had any friends in the city that she might have gone to see." CD said. "No, I don't. I haven't seen the kid in two weeks. Good luck finding her, and when you do, tell her not to bother coming back unless she is ready to apologize to me, and she knows why!" With that, Dianne slammed the phone down. Now CD was REALLY confused.

CD DeLorenzo · 08-13-2003, 06:36 PM

oooh please post more

This is great!! More please!!!!!

TDfan69 · 08-13-2003, 08:35 PM

Sorry about the confusion, I'm getting there! Still tweaking that part!

Later, at the Division Nate was trying to finish up some paperwork on a case he and CD had just finished. He wanted to get out and search the streets some more for Kelly.There wasn't much going on,but Jinny and Magda had gotten called to a homicide. He looked up to see them walking into an interrogation room with someone. He looked more closely.It was Kelly! He got up. "Hey Magda," he called. Magda turned around. Jinny and Kelly had gone in the room and not seen Nate. "Yeah?" Magda asked. "Who did you just bring in?" he asked. Magda shrugged. "We aren't sure yet. She won't tell us her name, won't talk to us at all, but we think she had something to do with the homicide we're on. Why?" Nate did not want to tell Magda who Kelly was, he figured that was CD's business, but he also wanted to make sure that the girl didn't leave. "Just don't let her go, I will explain later," Nate said. He went to his desk and called CD. 'She's here, she's okay, but Jinny and Magda have brought her in for questioning on a case,"he said when CD answered. "I'm on my way" was all CD said, and she jumped in her car and drove to the Division,all the while wondering what case Kelly would have any information on. She parked her car and ran upstairs. "Where is she? Is she okay? What is she being questioned on?" Nate sat her down. "I don't know yet, but Jin and Magda are working on a homicide that happened this morning." CD took a deep breath. "Okay, can you get Jin and Magda to come out here?" she asked. Nate walked over to where Kelly was being held, and picked up the outside the room. He asked them to come out, that it was important. Jinny and Magda came out. "What's up?" Jinny asked. CD gestured towards the room. 'What are you holding the girl for?" she asked. "We have a homicide from this morning.It's looking like a drug deal gone bad. A couple of witnesses said they saw a girl matching her description running from the scene.We searched the park and found this kid hiding in the bathrooms all upset. She hasn't told us anything, she's most likely a runaway." Jinny sighed. We can't break her." CD took the file. "Why don't you let me take a turn here, and I will see if I can get you what you need." Jinny looked at CD. This wasn't like her to take over questioning wwitnesses on a case that wasn't even hers, plus Magda had told her Nate had acted funny when he saw the kid. "Do you know her or something?" Jinny asked. CD turned around. 'Yeah, I know her," CD replied and opened the door to where Kelly was. CD walked in. Kelly turned around,expecting to those two detectives again. She was shocked to see CD. "Wha- what are you doing here?" she asked.
