CHAPTER 1
Calleigh smiled as her husband of 3 months kissed her neck to wake her up. "Morning beautiful."
"Mmmmm...good morning."
"Did you sleep good?"
Calleigh nodded. "At first...I thought we weren't going to get any sleep at all."
Eric chuckled. "Well...I'm a man Cal what can I say. The four weeks after Maggie was born was killing me."
Calleigh smiled. "Hey its not my fault."
Eric smiled knowing this was a battle he couldn't win and leaned down just as a cry was heared over the baby monitor. Eric sighed. "I'll get her."
"No its ok...i'll get her..."
"You sure?"
Calleigh nodded and put her bath robe on. "Yeah...you just go back to sleep. Scuba boy."
"Oh I love it when you talk dirty." said Eric sarcastically.
Calleigh giggled and walked out of the bedroom and into her daughter's room.

"Oh...what's a matter my angel?" asked Calleigh as she flipped Maggie's light on. "Huh? What's a matter with momma's baby girl?"
Maggie stopped crying as her mother picked her up. "Is that what you wanted? Mmmm...did you want your Mommy?" Calleigh leaned over and kissed Maggie's forehead and sighed. Maggie had dark chocolate eyes and brownish black hair. Calleigh knew she was married to Eric and he was with her through her whole pregnancy but there was a part of her that thought that Maggie could be someone else's child. Someone she loved very much, and maybe she still did. But he just wouldn't listen. And she didn't want to be around him when he got himself in over his head. Or worse 6 feet under.

Calleigh smiled as her and Eric entered the breakroom of CSI. "Good morning guys." said Calleigh cheerfully as she saw Alexx flipping through a magazine and Tim flipping through the channels.
"Hi sugar...did you get any sleep last night?"
Calleigh smiled. "A little bit yeah...-"
Calleigh went to go say something but was cut of by Eric. "Tell me something Alexx...when you had Bryan and Jamie did you get any sleep at all?"
"Oh...I did...but Jack didn't..." Alexx laughed lightly. "I had him do everything."
Calleigh smiled as she poured herself a cup of coffee. "I like the way you think Alexx."
"Oh no...don't you even think about it." started Eric. "I claimed the first dirty diaper. Did that...i'm not going to get up everytime she cries."
Calleigh smiled and then wiped it off her face. "Ok...well that's fine...but you just remember I was the one who pushed her out of me. And I gurantee you that hurts worse then getting kicked in the balls."
Eric laughed lightly and sat down next to his friend. Well maybe not a good of a friend that he used to have. But Eric still hoped Tim wasn't mad at him.
"Hey man."
"Hey." said Tim not taking his eyes off the t.v.
Alexx noticed the strain in Tim's voice and gave him a sympathetic smile, even though he wasn't looking at her. Timmy was like a second son to her. And when he was in trouble she could feel it. And when he was in pain she could feel that to. And trust her he has been in pain for almost a year.
"So what are you doing tonight?"
"I don't know."
"You wanna go get a beer after work? You don't mind do you Calleigh?"
Calleigh shook her head. "No I don't mind."
"No thanks." said Tim as he got up to refill his cup.
"Come on man...you can't sit at home by yourself all the time."
"Why not...i'm used to it. You know me...I'm not used to change." Tim stepped ip next to Calleigh and reached for the coffee pot. He thought just being in the same room with her was bad. Standing only centimeters apart from her was even worse. His body shivered, stomach dropped and heart beat got faster. He was in love with her. Always have, ever since he laid eyes on her a few years ago. They had it all. They had eachother. But one stupid mistake took that away from them. Calleigh looked at Tim for a second and then looked away.
"Speedle...come on-" Eric was cut off by Horatio entering the room. The man always did know how to come in at the worst times. Or at good times.
"Guys..."
"Morning H." said Tim as he walked over to Alexx who looked at him worridly.
"Speed...Calleigh your looking beautiful as always."
Calleigh smiled." Thank you."
Horatio nodded. "So how's Maggie?"
"She's great."
"Good to hear...ok guys listen...Eric and I have a double over in Coconut Grove. Calleigh...Speed...you guys got a robbery homicide over on Biscayne."
Tim nodded and took the address from Horatio. "Eric meet me out in the Hummer in five."
"You got it H." started H. "I kinda hoped we'd work together today." said Eric as he took Calleigh's hand.
"I know...me too."
Tim rolled his eyes and practically through his cup in the sink and walked out. Alexx sighed and walked out as well.
"He's still mad."
"He'll get over it. I love you. And he's just going to have to get used to that."
Eric nodded. "Alright...well...I love you. I'll see you later."
Calleigh nodded. And kissed Eric lightly. I love you to.

Calleigh stopped for a second as she saw Tim opening his locker. "Bad night?" asked Calleigh trying to make small talk as she grabbed her jacket from her locker.
"No...more like bad life."
Calleigh sighed and closed her locker loudly, causing Tim to jump. "Alright look Speedle. It's not my fault it didn't work out between us."
"Oh its not?"
"No...its not."
Tim laughed lightly and closed his locker as well and began to walk away when Calleigh grabbed his arm. Tim looked down at her hand. Her left hand. Which wore a silver ring with a farely large diamond on it. Tim ignored the feeling he got from her touch. And so did Calleigh.
"What do you want from me?" pleaded Tim.
"Tim...I want you to move on...I'm with Eric now. And we have a daughter. Your just going to have to get used to that."
"I can't Calleigh...I still love you."
Calleigh sighed and let go of him. "Well you should have thought about that before..."
"Before what Calleigh?"
"Before your broke my heart."
FLASHBACK----
Calleigh took Tim's gun out of the evidence box and began to examine it. From the outside it looked like a well working gun but as soon as she took it apart she couldn't tell why he got shot in the heart. The gun was completely dirty. Every inch of it was. Calleigh sighed and pushed the thought of poor gun maitence out of her mind and began to examine each piece of the gun. When she couldn't find any other reason why his gun wouldn't let a shot off she had to rule it as poor gun maitence.

"You ok?" Calleigh asked Tim after they had gone home that night.
"Yeah...I'm fine."
"Tim..."
''Calleigh...I don't want to talk about it."
"Well maybe you need to Tim."
Tim sighed and sat down on the couch. "Calleigh...i'm sorry...ok...it won't happen again."
"Your damn right it won't." said Calleigh temper completely showing.
Tim turned to face her. "What do you mean?"
"It can happen to you all it wants...but its not going to happen to me again."
"Calleigh...what are you saying?"
"I'm saying that you scared the crap out of me today Tim. You could have lost your life because you didn't clean your gun. Thank god you were wearing kevlar. If not...we'd be barring 4 police officers instead of 3."
"Calleigh..."
"No Tim...I can't go though this again."
"What are you saying?"
"I"m saying...I don't think we should see eachother anymore."
Tim sat there motionless, unable to say anything. And just watched Calleigh walk out the door.
PRESENT----
"No Calleigh...its more like you broke mine." said Tim and walked out.
Calleigh sighed and fought the tears the stung her eyes and sat down on the bench. Did she make the biggest mistake of her life?
