How It Must Feel

Author Note: Hey I'm back, hope you enjoy the chapter, sorry it's short.


1. Her

Calleigh was in her ballistics lab analyzing some bullets for a case when she spotted Eric outside the lab.

"Hey Eric" She said peeking out the lab "You're still on for drinks tonight?" She asked him.

"Oh, crap I forgot. Sorry, I'm so sorry, rain check?" He put his hand to his head and closed his eyes. He'd really forgotten.

"Rain check? Eric Delko, do you have other plans?" Calleigh teased, smiling.

"What? Is that so hard to believe?" He asked playing along. She just smiled and walked over to microscope and looked into it.

"Yes, actually" He continued "I do have plans; I have to pick someone up for the airport."

"Oh, whom might I ask?" she said still joking; she looked up from the scope and paused.

"You don't know her" he replied. He was serious.

She tried to mask the surprise expression on her face, but it was too late. Eric looked at her, but he didn't know what to say. She was still in shock, there was an awkward silence.

"Her" Calleigh thought, but before Calleigh could pry any further Ryan walk up to Eric with some evidence.

"Hey Eric, -Calleigh" he looked at the both of them "hope I'm not interrupting anything, but um Eric need some fresh eyes on this data I'm analyzing. Mind if I steal him?" He said looking at Calleigh.

She forced a nod "Sure"

Thanks to Ryan he'd managed to avoid the question before Calleigh had a chance to ask it, but she couldn't help but wonder who "her" was. She was a CSI; it's her job to be curious.

She went back to analyzing the bullets, but her mind still wondered about her. "Why didn't Eric just tell her who she was? Did he not want me to know? Was he hiding something?" but just like the evidence she was analyzing, her thought were coming up blank.
