Letter from Calleigh

Letter from Calleigh

Eric is in one of the labs looking over a case file that he has been working on.

"Why can't I find the answer?" asking himself

The door slides open and Wolfe comes in.

"What's up, Eric?"

"Eric looks up from his work and sees Wolfe, "Hey Wolfe. I am just trying to see if I can find any answers to this case."

Wolfe sits down at the table and says, "Do believe that Calleigh is getting married tomorrow?"

"Oh I know. It's crazy. She finally found the right man."

"Yep, she sure did. Oh, before I forget." Taking an envelope out of his jacket. "Calleigh wanted me to give this to you."

Eric takes the envelope and asks, "What is it?"

"I don't know. She just wanted me to give it to you and also she wanted you to read it after your shift."

"Oh, okay." Looking confused

"Well. I will see you at the wedding tomorrow."

"Yeah, see you tomorrow."

Wolfe leaves the room and Eric gets back to work.

Later on that night after Eric gets settled into bed and he opens the envelope and pulls out the piece of paper and starts to read it.

Eric,

I hope Wolfe gave you this note. This is the only way I can say what I want to say to you.

Tomorrow I am marrying a wonderful man. I am happy but not has happy that I want to be.

When I am around you I feel happy. I get excited when I see you enter the room. I love your eyes and that smile makes me melt.

A while ago when we were going through the therapist files I did find yours and read it. It said that you wanted to be with me. Ever since I read that I realized that I want to be with you too, Eric.

I love you. You are the perfect man for me. I want to be in your life forever.

Please come tomorrow and take me away so we can spend our lives together.

Love Always,

Calleigh

Eric puts down the letter and says, "She loves me."

He smiles to himself and lies down.

The next day

Calleigh is in the bride's room looking at herself in the mirror.

"Just breathe, Calleigh. Eric should be here any minute. I know he loves me."

Calleigh hears a knock on the door, "Come in" hoping it was Eric.

"Calleigh, are you ready?" one of her bridesmaids asks

"He's not coming." Whispering to herself and picking up the flowers off the table. "Yeah I am."

Calleigh looks at herself one more time and walks out of the room to meet her father at the front entrance.

Eric is driving his car to the church hoping he isn't too late.

He parks his car and gets out and starts to run.

The music starts and the usher opens the doors.

Calleigh takes her father's arm and they start walking down the aisle.

Calleigh sees her groom at the alter and smiles at him.

When she gets up to the alter her father gives her groom her hand.

Outside Eric gets to the door and stops to breathe.

"I know I can do this." Telling himself

He opens the door and sees Calleigh at the alter.

Eric starts to walk down the aisle up to Calleigh.

"Calleigh, don't marry him. I love you."

Calleigh turns around and looks at Eric and smiles and says, "I knew you would come for me. I love you too."

Calleigh looks at her groom and says, "I am sorry but I can't marry you. I did love you but it stopped when I realized that I am in love with my best friend." She takes off her ring and gives it to the groom.

"I am sorry everyone for doing this to you all. My heart really belongs to Eric. I know I don't have any regrets choosing Eric to be with me. I hope you all believe me."

Calleigh takes Eric's hand and they walk out of the church.

Eric stops Calleigh and says "I love you, Calleigh and always will."

And then kisses her.

The End
