Catherine lie in her bed tossing and turning. Sweat covered the sheets in her bed as her body jolted upward waking her from yet another horrible nightmare.
Tears streamed down Catherine's face as her dreams faded and reality came back to her.
"Gil" she whispered as she picked up her phone and dialled. The phone rang more then five times and Catherine was about to hang up when he answered.
"Grissom"
Catherine did not speak
"Hello"
"Gil" she let out a small sigh, "It's me."
"Catherine I have been trying to find you, I know this is probably the last thing that you want to do but, I need you back here Catherine it's an emergency" He paused "We need you to testify against him"
Catherine did not respond
"Catherine?" Grissom called
"Why? I thought you had enough evidence you told me there was enough evidence and"
Grissom cut her off
"Cath I thought so to and then Brass came to me last night and told me to find you. Cath we need you to do this it's the only way or else he goes back to the streets and we get stuck investigating the next murder."
"I don't think I can face him Gil, I really don't"
"Catherine I am not going to even pretend what your are going through but do you really want someone else to have to feel the way your feeling"
"Gil I can't" She paused " Hey Gil I.. I got to go"
"Wait Cath please we need you the lab needs you and I need you"
"Oh my god Gil listen to your self, this is not about you or the lab it's about me and what I want, I don't want to see him Gil and now that he is getting out I don't think I can even come back, maybe it is safer for me and Lindsey if I stay where I am."
Catherine hung up he phone and fell back on her bed.
"I won't go back" she whispered, "I can't go back"
