Too Bad For Just Hanging with The Guys

Summary: Mac planned a trip for the men of the lab, but Stella insisted that the girls would go as well… mainly DL and some SMacked, Fiesta… and so on

Danny and Lindsay are just dating and Jess Angell never was hired at the time

Disclaimer: I don't own anything in CSI NY and I didn't plan to post, this is just a fiction idea I had in mind.

Mac is sitting on the plane with Danny, Adam, Don and Stella with Lindsay. He was deep in thought about the days events that took place eighteen hours ago.

Mac held Don, Danny, Adam and Sheldon in a meeting.

"Okay so I've been thinking it's been a few months since Peyton and I went our separate ways, and I was thinking that we should have a trip, just us guys."

They all gave each other weird looks.

"Yeah, sorry about what happened to you two, but I need to stay here," Sheldon told him.

"I already bought the five tickets."

"But Mac, Sid is only one man, I need to stay here. You know how many dead people there are in a week."

"Fine, but someone needs to take your ticket."

"We'll decide that later," Hawkes said and left.

The other 3 were having upset expressions.

"Okay guys, it's just us four."

"Great, really looking forward to this," Don lied.

"Why can't Stella go, she's tough like a man," Adam smiled.

"I am not letting Stella come, and that's final. No women allowed."

"Come on Mac, just let Stella go, you like her anyways," Danny said.

"Look's like you're out-numbered Mac," Don smiled.

He sighs, "Fine, I'll let her go, since that's what you guys want."

"Good, well I'll go find her," Don nods and left.

"Well, you guys should be getting back to work," Mac stated in his boss tone. They frown and leave.

Mac grunts and sits at his desk.

Mac continues looking out the window. In other seats on the plane Lindsay and Stella were talking.

"Thanks for buying my ticket Stell, I don't know how I could survive a week without you."

"No problem, you need a break from work anyways."

"So I'm surprised Mac let you tag along."

"But he had no choice Linds, the other guys out-numbered him."

"Stella, you are lucky."

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"All of the guys like you."

"That's a ridiculous idea, we are all just good friends."

"Sure, Adam gets nervous when you guys are talking about other things that aren't work related. Danny even though we're dating has some kind of crush on you. Don is always there for you when you need someone the most. And well Mac is just… I don't know about him actually."

"Lindsay, you are just taking some weird drugs is all."

"I don't do drugs thank you very much," she smiles.

"So what if they like me? Can we just drop the conversation?"

"Sure, but one more thing. If you had to choose who would you go out with?"

"I'm not going to answer that."

"You've been single for three years now."

"It's been two and a half, and I don't want to say anything, because you'll try to hook us up."

"Yeah, we should drop the conversation," the two girls agree and are silent for the rest of the trip.

In the middle section of the plane sat Danny, Adam and Don.

"Good thing the girls are coming along. I can't do with Mac for a week, just us guys."

"None of us can Adam, well Stella probably could."

Both of the guys look at Danny.

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Calm down you two, she's his best friend, and you can tell they secretly like each other."

"Doesn't mean they would be able to spend a week together. I always thought me and her had something going on," Don admits.

"Yeah right Don, me and Stella have this connection that neither you or Mac have with her."

"Shut up Adam," Don slapped his arm slightly.

"What was that for?"

"Being your usual self. For one you've been with your share of women, and secondly I've only slept with one woman, and that didn't even mean anything."

"Would you guys stop talking about Stella like this? She wouldn't appreciate you guys planning to go out with her."

"Why do you care? You have Lindsay."

"Adam he's actually right. If Stella liked us she would have asked us out by now."

Adam nods and they remain quiet… for only a few minutes.

"I have an idea, we'll both try to impress her, but not too much and see who she rather go out with."

"Fine, but we won't get disappointed about her decision."

"You guys have fun with that… and I'll just enjoy the time we have away from work. She'll probably just choose Mac anyways."

"Don't have doubt in me Messer," Don grinned.

"Right, you don't stand a chance."

"Don't get upset Adam, it'll be fun."

They turn forward and remain quiet.

Thirty minutes later, they land in Columbia, South Carolina. Everyone grabs there carry-on luggage and heads for the bag claim age.

Everybody had their bags except Stella. Don and Adam both helped find her other luggage. Don and Adam spot the bag at the same time and grab it. It was already too late they bumped heads and Stella got her bag. Danny couldn't help, but laugh at the two.

Everybody heads outside.

"You both looked like idiots there, I think she'll pick Adam because he's fragile."

Adam smiled, kind of and Don frowned. Mac got a rental car to pick them up. They put all of their suitcases in the back of the car. They all got inside. They had an escort named George to drive them to Baker Creek State Park.

Lindsay, Stella and Danny sat in the back. Don and Adam in the middle and Mac in the passengers seat. Everyone was quiet for the forty minute drive. They register in the campground and found a spot for them. Mac had planned everything. He paid their driver money for his motel room, and when they took out their luggage he left… and was going to be gone for the week.

They all sit on logs waiting for some conversation.

"So, we should maybe pitch our tents first and settle in them," Mac told everyone.

Lindsay, Stella and Danny had a tent and left the other three with one. The girls and Danny spent no time pitching their tent. The other guys were struggling Stella and Lindsay laughed, while Danny went over to help.

"I wonder why all the guys are so quiet," Lindsay mentioned to Stella.

"I don't know, Mac's still probably pissed that we've came along. And I don't know how much Don and Adam actually want to be here."

"Yeah, you're right Stell. They'll get over it sooner or later," she smiled.

After the joys of watching the guys pitch a tent Danny came back to the ladies. He grabbed Lindsay's arm and pulls her about twenty feet from Stella.

"Messer, what is your problem?"

"We need to talk, it's about Adam and Don."

"Sounds serious," she frowns.

"Actually it's quite hilarious if you ask me."

"Come on and spill Danny."

"Us three were talking on the plane and…"

As he finishes the story Lindsay's face brightens.

"Really? So do you think it'll work?"

"I doubt it, after Mac's done with his pissed faze he'll probably end up with her."

"Well, this is going to be one interesting week if you ask me," Lindsay laughs.

"Yeah, well we should get back to the others," they nod and sit back down with Stella.

Don and Adam were sitting on the picnic table looking at Stella, Danny and Lindsay.

"I can't believe we failed at pitching a tent," Adam sighed.

"Too bad for Stella being impressed with us."

"Yeah and that we have to share a tent with Mac."

"I almost forgot, maybe Mac'll find new friends to hang with and leave us with Stella."

"Maybe Don, but what if Danny's right… and she picks Mac."

"Don't be serious, you never agree with Messer, if he's right or wrong."

They continue their quiet conversation until Mac comes over and sits down with them.

"Hey tent buddies, what's up with you guys?"

"We're fine, aren't we Adam?"

"Yeah, we're good, and you."

"I'm all right, I've just been thinking about how you guys forced Stella to come with us."

Adam smiles, "We'll there are these guys in the campsite across the road. Maybe you want to hang with them," he gulped hoping it would work.

"No, I wouldn't mind meeting new people, but I'm too tired right now."

"Then maybe you should go to sleep…" Don suggested.

"I want to watch the sunset first."

Both men sigh, "Yeah well me and Adam need to use the restroom," Don pulled on Adam and forced him from the table and they walk to the small restroom building.

Mac stays there and looks at the sky. Danny sees the two guys leave and follows them. Leaving Stella and Lindsay on the log.

"Mac looks like he's having hell Stella, maybe you should go soften him up."

"I know Mac too well to know to go talk to him while he's thinking."

The girls sit quietly and the guys take forever to return. The sun has set and Mac went into his tent.

The three come back, they were afraid of the dark.

"Next time bring a flashlight," Lindsay smiles.

They grunt and moan, "Well we have to go hit the hay," Adam smiles.

"Yeah, we have an early day ahead of us. Good night Stella."

"Night Don, sleep well."

Don grins at the comment.

"Ha, I got a sleep well, and you got nothing."

"Shut up," Adam groaned as they entered their tent.

Danny and Lindsay were both grinning.

"Let's just go to sleep," Stella suggests and they go into their tent.

Everyone was asleep within 5 minutes. Not knowing of what was to come the next day.
