Chapter 2

Lab Sweet Lab

Alex was just finishing her autopsy when Calleigh came in. "How did you know I was finished?" Alex asked Calleigh with a grin on her face. "Do you have a chip on me?" She said joking around. "No of course not Alex. I just take my chances." Calleigh returned with the same grin on her face. "Ladies?" Horatio said from the room above the morgue. "Sorry Horatio, we'll get down to business." Calleigh said feeling a little embarrassed that she was acting like a child. "The poor baby was beaten to death." Alex said very sad. "But we didn't find any bruises on her." Horatio pointed out. "True but she was beaten in her gut with something that caused her to bleed internally." Alex said while rubbing the girl's hair. "Did you find a time of death yet?" Calleigh asked with a little frown on her face. "Yea, she died at midnight." Alex said not even looking up. "Calleigh take Eric and go interview her friends and colleagues at the college." Horatio said directing Calleigh. "I'm On H." Calleigh said as she left to go find Eric. "Well Horatio I found this trace on the victims hair." Alex then realized she was talking to no one because Horatio had already left. "Well it looks I'm Gonna have to take this to trace myself." Alex said to the victim.

Calleigh and Eric were just arriving at the college when they noticed a young girl and man fighting. "Well Jeff it's not like she wanted to she had no choice." The girl shouted. "That's a bunch of bull!" The man shouted back. "Ok then if you don't believe that, then she just didn't love you!" The girl shouted back now seriously irritated. The Man lifted his hand to slap her when Eric stepped in. "Hey! Knock it off!" Eric shouted at the guy. "Mind your own business" The guy shouted at Eric. "Well you were about to assault this young girl, as a police officer he's aloud to stop you from hurting another human." Calleigh chimed in. "What ever" the guy said feeling a little embarrassed that he had lost to a girl. "Now what are your names? And what are you fighting about?" Eric said calming them both down. "I'm Sarah, and he's Jeff. We were fighting about Michelle." The Girl said. "Who's Michelle?" Eric asked. "She's the my best friend. She was the girl you found in the locker room." Sarah said starting to cry. "Do you guys know who did it yet?" She asked through her tears. "No, but we need to ask you some questions about Michelle." Calleigh said feeling sympathetic for Sarah. "You can ask us both." Jeff said putting his arm around Sarah. Calleigh and Eric shot each other looks like does that seem weird? "Do you no of anyone who would want to hurt here?" Eric asked. "No she was a very nice, polite, and caring person." Jeff said rubbing Sarah's Arm. "What is your relationship with Michelle?" Calleigh asked Jeff. "She is my girlfriend. Well was." Jeff said correcting himself. "Technically you were her ex, seeing as how she broke up with you a week ago." Sarah pointed out to Jeff. "Will you excuse us for a second?" Calleigh asked walking away with Eric. "Did he seem a little guilty of something to you?" Calleigh asked Eric with a questioning look on her face. "Yea it's almost like they rehearsed it" Eric said agreeing with Calleigh. "You think they know we're faking this?" Jeff asked a little frightened that they did. "Will you guys please come back to the lab with us?" Calleigh asked. "And if we don't?" Jeff asked stubbornly. "You can come now or we can take you out in the middle of class with 3 squad cars, it's your choice." Eric said matching his stubbornness. Sarah and Jeff followed the CSI's off campus.

Alex walked the trace she found on the victim to trace. "Hey Ryan I'm no trace expert but I think it's some sort of hair gel." Alex said to her teammate. "Well I would say your right, it has all the ingredients that hair gel has." Ryan agreed. "But why would she need hair gel at midnight. I mean she doesn't strike me as the partying type." Ryan said a little confused at what he was saying. "I mean with what her friends have about her." Alex smiled at him. "I know what you mean." She said continuing smiling. Horatio was behind the two-way mirror watching his CSI's interview the college students. Nothing was really happening Calleigh was righting down in her notebook Eric was watching her right stuff down in her notebook. "Look you brought us here shouldn't you be asking us some questions or something?" Sarah said getting a little jumpy. "Do you have somewhere to be?" Calleigh asked not even looking up. "No but we don't want to spend our day in a crime lab." Jeff said getting irritated. "What type of hair gel do you wear?" Eric questioned. "What does that have to do with anything?" Jeff asked getting a little scared that he was a suspect. "Just answer the question." Calleigh said still not looking up. "Mega Hold. Why?" Jeff asked calmer now. "Because that's the kind we found on Michelle. But she wasn't wearing any, and it was all over arm." Eric replied giving him a know-it-all look. Just then Calleigh's phone went off. "Duquesne" she answered turning away from the suspects. "Calleigh I found some bite marks on the victims neck." Alex said sounding a little worried. "Did you get DNA off them?" Calleigh asked hoping she did. "Yes and I took it to DNA and they said it was males. Except they don't know his name though. I hope that helps." Alex said hanging up. "Can I have a sample of your DNA?" Calleigh asked turning back to Jeff. Jeff willingly gave his DNA, to make it seem like he was innocent.

A/N: Sorry if this chapter seemed pointless or boring but I had to put some suspects in, and sorry if I made you think that its Jeff. Well it could be but you'll have to see. Next Chapter should have some more drama between Calleigh, Eric, and Jake.
