DON'T OWN CSI: MIAMI!!!
She wasn't in the bathroom, so he heard shots in the shooting range and goes there to see Calleigh concentrating really hard, her white face showing it, and her body was shaking, but her arms were steady. He admired her ability, and then walks over to her and taps her shoulder. She spins around, and then sees him. She takes off the ear protection and says,
"Sorry, couldn't resist."
"So, who's the target today?" He says, pointing at the perfect shots at the end of the range, along with the other paper that's been turned into confetti.
"Oh, no one, really,"
"Really? I don't buy that."
"Oh, darn,"
He waited, but instead she handed over a pair of ear protection and snapped on her own, raising her gun again. Again he admired her ability, but then noticed something was wrong. Tears were sliding down her cheeks, and Calleigh Duquesne doesn't cry for just anything. She then staggered to the side, and just before she could collapse again, Horatio reached out and caught her just as she blacked out.
She woke up a few minutes later on the range floor, Horatio kneeling over her chafing her wrists again. She moaned and sat up, holding her head.
"I've got to stop doing that," She mutters, and then Alexx calls,
"Calleigh, Horatio, I've got food!" Calleigh tries to get up, but almost falls. Horatio puts an arm around her waist and said,
"Try to walk now." She does, and makes it to the door, just as Alexx opens the door. She sees them, and leads the way to the break room. She sits Calleigh down and all three of them eat. Calleigh eats slow, but furiously, like she's pretending someone that she's mad at is every piece she tears off. Finally, they all finish and Calleigh's sipping her soda along with Horatio, though Alexx is sipping a cup of tea.
"So, spill." Alexx says, and Calleigh tries to look innocent.
"Spill what? My soda?"
"No, smart aleck, what's wrong with you? You were attacking your sandwich like you wished a fate worse than death on it."
"And, you were trying to make someone have a slow and painful death in the range; you've used at least 50 rounds just today." Calleigh sighed and looked at them.
"You, you won't tell anyone, will you?"
"Of course not, honey, we're just worried about you." Alexx says, and then Calleigh puts her head in her hands, shoving her hair back and then repeating the gesture. She says,
"I can't believe I was so blind! See, me and Eric have been dating for a year now." She looks at them and sees Horatio change expressions quickly. She was curious, but really didn't care, at the moment. Alexx nodded and said,
"I thought so."
"Go on, Calleigh." Horatio said quietly, and Calleigh said,
"So, today was our one year anniversary, and we both got up to take separate showers. I get dressed and go to see if he's ready yet to go running, and I open the door. There stands Eric and my sister, Molly, in the shower together."
