MONDAY

Gil got back in his Denali and drove around Vegas, it was now 2:00 in the morning, not wanting to go home and not wanting to go back to the lab he went to the new house he and Catherine were to move into the next day. He had been bringing boxes in form his place and hers for the past few weeks and decided he should finish empting the boxes.

Gil walked into the new home and a smiled came to him instantly. He remembered the day they had decide on the house and how happy Catherine had been when they went to the bank to make the down payment, Gil had vowed to himself then to never do anything to break her heart or make her cry, how he failed miserably.

He sat on the floor against the wall in the dimly lit house and out his hands on his head. How could he screw up something so perfect? He really did not know, but the one thing he was sure off was that he needed to fix it, not matter what the cost, he needed to make sure she knew that he still cared.

Gil sat there on the floor until he had fallen asleep.

Catherine woke up that morning with a headache. As she was about to pull the blankets back she noticed the small girl in the bed beside her staring at her eagerly. " Good morning mommy" the small girl smiled.

"Lindsey" Catherine made a face " Are you okay, what's wrong?" Lindsey shook her head " nothing, but I was waiting for you to wake up so I could say that I was sorry for yelling at you, I know you and uncle Gil work it out, you just have to talk to him."

Catherine sat up in her bed " Mommy why didn't you talk to him last night?" Lindsey asked politely, not wanting to sound rude. " I heard him at the door and he was really sad."

Catherine shook her head " I don't know baby, I was just to sad to talk to him. But I will talk to him today okay." Lindsey smiled " You promise" Catherine smiled back at her " I will do my best"

Catherine got up and got Lindsey off to school and decided it was the best time to talk to Gil. He got dressed and drove over to his house.

After sitting in the car for ten minutes she collected herself and walked up to his front door. She was so deep in thought that she had not even noticed his Denali was not parked in his drive way. As she ran the door bell she waited patiently for him to answer. After waiting a moment she turned and walked back to her car. " That's weird" she whispered as she started the engine, he should be home room work by now.

Catherine sighed and drove to the lab not wanting to give up. When she walked into the lab Warrick was just leaving. " Hey Cath" he smiled " Gil is not here if that's who you are looking for, he left last night, he let to find you but I guess he should be at home."

"Oh.. Thanks Warrick Catherine walked back to her vehicle her expression written with disappointment and worry. " Where the hell could he be" she asked herself and got back in and drove home. As Catherine drove she could not help but let the tears come back. Maybe he does not want to try, why did I not talk to him last night she wondered Maybe it's to late
