A/N: I cannot possibly convey how disappointed I am. Wrecking Crew was supposed to be fabulously E/C filled. And we got… this. Anywho, this takes place while Calleigh is tracking down the construction supervisor, and then after that wife slaps her. Mostly Eric's thoughts.
Calleigh was so upset. Not that Eric wasn't. He was, very much, mostly because she was upset.
When that crane had come crashing into the building, he hadn't really been thinking about the witness. He was so scared that something had happened to her.
"Eric! Eric!" He remembered her shouting, relief flooding his body.
"I'm trapped, I can't get to you," he had said, wishing more than anything that he could.
And now that they were safe, but the witness was not, having fallen from Calleigh's hand, he knew she was going to do anything in her power to track down who was putting her through this.
Seeing her so hurt, he wanted to wrap her in his arms like he did during that off-duty shooting, which seemed so long ago. He went to put a hand on her shoulder, to comfort her.
"Officer Duquesne?" asked a man, whom Eric could only assume was the man they were looking for.
Eric snatched his hand away quickly as Calleigh attacked this case.
That woman had no right to slap Calleigh. Sure, she was upset, after all, her husband had just died. But didn't that woman see how upset Calleigh was? The man had fallen off her hand, on her watch.
And to add insult to injury, the woman struck Calleigh across the face. It made Eric so mad.
A/N: Woo, another suckish week. I may edit this later, but I wanted to post this semi-on-time. So, yeah. I hope you liked it. Maybe next week will be better, though I say that every week… * rolls eyes * Please review!
