Calleigh sighed. She had been working on this case for the past 12 hours and nothing had shown up to convict the serial killer who had 30 minutes left in holding before the law forced him to be released.
She inspected the victim's shirt one more time and was about to call horatio and let him know the case was cold when she spotted a tiny speck of liquid which would convict him.
She was walking out of the door of her lav when she walked into someone. Looking up, she saw Eric Delko, the man she was in love with.
"Hey Eric. I got something. I'm about to head out."
"Want me to drive? You look like you've been here all night!" he answered.
"I have..." Eric looked concerned and offered her his coffee. She grabbed it eagerly and was about to sip when she started getting dizzy. Eric saw her swaying but thought she was just appreciating the warm caffeine. He smiled warmly down at her. He was in love with her, and had been since the very first day he had met her.
All of a sudden she collapsed onto the ground. Eric rushed to catch her.
He pulled out his phone and quickly dialed the Medical Examiner, Alex.
"Yes baby?" she answered.
"It's Eric! Calleigh just collapsed! We're outside trace. Come quickly please!"
He then called their boss and filled him in.
"I'm here Eric let me take a look!" Alex gave the newly conscious Calleigh a quick exam and came to a quick conclusion which she shared with Horatio and Eric. "She has the flu. With that and the combination of not enough sleep and too much caffeine have just killed her system. I suggest that Eric take her home and make sure she gets better. I'll be by tonight with some medecine and to check up on her after my shift. Is that okay with you Horatio?"
"That's fine Doctor. Eric, you have off until you're sure she's okay to be alone at home." And with the evidence Horatio Caine left.
"Take care of her Eric. Maybe she'll realize that you return the feelings." And with a smile Alex left too.
With Ryan's help Eric got Calleigh and all her stuff into his Hummer. In the car he began to think.
What if Alex was right? He and Calleigh had hung out a little outside of work, but not only them two alone. Hm...He would have to take this opportunity. But he would never invade on her space or do anything to make her uncomfortable...She stirred in the seat. He smoothed her hair off her face and she went back to sleep.
He sighed. She would never love him back. She was too perfect.
He pulled up outside her house and went to open the door then carried her in. He encountered a problem when he went to tuck her into her bed. She was a woman. and was in work clothes, and knowing Calleigh she would not ever let him change her. So he settled with taking her shoes off and tucking her in with an extra blanket outside of her normal covers.
He went to the kitchen and looked in her closets and fridge and found them empty. She must have been eating out a lot, or just staying at work. He couldn't leave her alone, so he called his older sister, Carmen.
"Carmen? Hey can you do me a favor?" With his sister on her way with food, medicine and clothes for him, he began to heat up some vegetable broth to make some soup.
As he heard some noise from the other room, he went to check on Calleigh.
"You okay in there Cal?" he asked through the door.
"Eric? You're still here?"
"Ya! I'm not going anywhere till I decide your fit to stay alone here." he responded.
"You really don't have to Eric. Okay, I guess I'm gonna take a shower now." She responded. She walked out of her room wrapped in a huge fluffy passion red towel. If only she knew what red against her pale skin did to her.
"Okay. Call me if you need anything" He walked back into the kitchen.
hehehe okay. well, that was kinda boring. the next chapter will be better. im writing it right now ~:)
