Catching Up.
"So how are you really?" asked Stella in the other end of the phone. It was about a month since she talked to Mac last.
"Busy, it has been really hectic at the lab lately, what about you then?" he answered.
"I've been busy as well, work never ends," she said.
"I know all too well what that is like," he said with a chuckle.
"And Jo, how is she working out?" Stella wanted to know.
"Just fine, she is good at what she does, but it is not the same as having you around," he admitted.
"Aren't you the sweetest, I must however admit that working her is not the same as working with you either," she said with a heavy sigh.
"Well there is only one New York city crime lab, but tell me Stella, did you ever regret leaving?" Mac wanted to know.
Silences in the other end making him ask, "Stella, are you still there?"
"Yes I am, sorry Mac, it's just that I very much do regret it more than I ever have regretted anything in my life. Oh Mac I just wish I could come back to you," she said sadly.
"Then do come back Stella, please come back to me my star," he said.
"Mac," she whispered.
"Stella, please come back to me as I love you, I can no longer live without you," his otherwise steady voice sounded like it was on the point of breaking.
"Mac, I love you to and I am coming back tonight, I should never have left, because it is with you I belong," said Stella, before hanging up.
It was early morning when Stella rang his doorbell, and it is safe to say she never left her Mac again. From that day on they remained a couple as they were both very much in love.
Feedback always welcome and very much appreciated :o)
