Gil Grissom sat in his office waiting for word from Brass that they had found Catherine and Chris when Brass walked into his office.
"They don't have any leads and they can't find them." he sat down across from Gil
"Nick and Sara are over at the hotel now processing the scene to see of they can find anything and Warrick is with Lindsey.
Gil sat up in his chair " With Lindsey? When did she get here?" Gil stood up and walked down to the break room.
"Uncle Gil!" Lindsey ran to him and hugged him " Did you find my mommy yet?"
Gil's smile faded " No sweetheart not yet, but everyone is looking." he paused " Lindsey have you ever heard your mom fight with her friend Chris?"
Lindsey pulled away from Gil and sat on the couch near the door.
"I'm not supposed total about that" she said as she turned her gaze to the floor
"Well I think it might help us find your mom" Gil sat beside her
Lindsey starred at the floor a bit longer before she spoke.
"After mommy broke up with him he kept coming over. Mommy would tell him to leave but he wouldn't go away. Mommy would go to her room or send me to mine and he would start yelling at her."
"What about? Do you know Lindsey" Gil smiled at the almost crying girl
"Mommy kept saying that she didn't love him and he would ask her why" She paused " But mommy wouldn't tell him."
Gil stood up and squatted in front of her when he saw the first tear fall.
"Did he ever hurt your mom?"
Lindsey shook her head " Not really, one time he grabbed her arm but that's it" she wiped her tears
"Do you wanna know why" she said with a mischievous smile.
Lindsey leaned close to his ear and whispered
"Because she likes you more"
Lindsey leaned back on the couch and smiled at him.
"Uncle Gil, I'm sleepy can you take me home."
Gil smiled at her. He knew he should stay around the building but he wanted Lindsey to feel as safe as possible.
"How about I take you to my house?"
Chris pulled up to a house and pulled Catherine out of the driver's side door and dragged her up the front step.
"What are we doing here?" She tried to pull away from him " Why did you bring me here?"
Chris tightened his grip
"Because I want to see the look on Gil's face when he see's me with you. I want him to tell me how it feel's to be so close to someone you love so much and not be able to save them from the pain."
:"Just don't hurt him Chris he has nothing to do with me and you"
Chris stopped in his tracks and glared at Catherine
"How dare you. Do you really think I am that stupid" He raised his fist to hit her but stopped "like I said I want to wait for Gil. Now you know where he keeps that spare key. Get it and open the door"
