I OWN NOTHING!!

Biased on two songs: I CAN LOVE YOU LIKE THAT and I SWEAR by: John Michael Montgomery

Ryan Wolfe's shift was now over at the Miami Dade Crime lab and he was heading into the locker room.

When he walked in he was startled a little.He saw Calleigh sitting on the bench in the middle of the room.

"Oh, Cal. I did'nt know you were in here." She did'nt move. "Cal, are you okay?"

She nodded yes, and then no. "No, I'm not. But I'll be fine." She gave Ryan a small smile.

He walked over to her and sat down next to her. "Are you sure?"

"Yea." And she went to stand and walk away, but Ryan grabbed her wrist.

"Talk to me." He said softly. He trusted her not to run away now and let go of her wrist. She just stood there and then finally sat down again.

"Eric asked me out today." Ryan sighed a little hearing this.

"And..." He wanted her to keep talking

"I didn't accept." Although Ryan was somewhat happy to hear this, he wanted to comfort her.

"Why?"

"I know he thinks he does, but, he doesn't really love me. He is just trying to show Jake that he can beat him."

"Beat him at what?"

"At getting me." She looked into his eyes.

"I'm not some stupid little prize for them to win. I read Cinderella as a kid. Why can't i find love like that?" They both laughed a little. "I always hoped that one day my prince charming would come rescue me.Like in the Notebook." She looked at Ryan and laughed. "Oh, you probably never saw that, right?"

"Actually, yes i have. Several times. Guys dream of true love too. Very few, but, we do." Smiles.

"Well anyways, i want love like Noah and Allie did.I know that sounds so stupid..."

"No it doesn't." She smiled at him.

"Ever since i was a little girl, I've dreamt of love that's everlasting."

Well baby open up your eyes Ryan thought

"I need tenderness." I got tenderness. "A man who understands me." Well you don't have to look very far. "Someone to love me."

"I can love you." Ryan couldn't believe that he had just said that. Oh well. No turning back now.

"What?" Calleigh looked like she was about to faint.

"I can. I can love you like that, i would make you my world, move heaven and earth if you were my girl, i will give you my heart, be all that you need, show you your everything that's precious to me. I f you give me a chance, i can love you like that. I never make a promise that i don't intent to keep, so when i say forever, forever is what i mean. I'm no Casanova, but i swear this much is true, I'll be holding nothing back when it comes to you. All this time you been waiting. Well, you don't have to wait anymore." He could still see the question in her eyes, so he went on. "Okay, i know what's weighing on your mind, but you can be sure i know my part. I 'll stand by you through the years. And though I'll make mistakes, I'll never break your heart. I swear, by the moon and the stars in the sky, I'll be there, like the shadow that's by your side, for better, for worse, till death do use part, ill love you with every beat of my heart. Ill give you everything I can, Ill build your dreams with these two hands.
Well hang some memories on the wall, and as time turns the page, my love wont age at all." He looked straight into her tear filled eyes, wipped some of the tears away and said: "Calleigh, i swear, i love you." She smiled a watery smile and crashed her lips onto his. Air soon became and issue, so she pulled away.

"So, this is what this feels like." She said

"What feels like." Calleigh looked at him and smiled. He wanted her to say it.

"True, love." They smiled and kissed again.
