A/N: thanks for all the wonderful reviews and I would really like to hear more from you. This part is really short, and truthfully it is the shortest chapter of the fic.
Chapter 1 : Words from Ecklie
It has been a week since Mandy barged into the break room and made all the three younger CSI's of graveyard shift confused. Ever since that night, when she first came by and assumed that Catherine and Grissom were once married, the three younger CSI's of the night shift has been very confused and has been determined to find out what's the real scoop.
They have all tried to ask the older CSI's about it, they've made a lot of attempts and ideas on how to make Catherine, Grissom and even Brass to talk but nothing has worked. None of them has ever considered on confronting the three. Besides the fact that it isn't their business, they know that none of the three aforementioned seniors would really bother to spare them with the story.
"I can't stand this" said Sara
"Can't stand what?" asked the Texan CSI Nick.
"The not knowing!"
"Well, none of them will talk" said Warrick
"How bout Doc Robbins?" Nick suggested
"He's never gonna talk" said Warrick
"I know! What about Ecklie?" Sara suggested.
"You really are desperate aren't you?" Nick retorted
"Don't you guys want to know?" Sara answered back.
And so the three of them headed to Ecklie's office. Ecklie has tried to deny that there used to be something about Catherine and Grissom, until Nick told him about the little slip out Mandy did in front of them. Ecklie realized the three would not stop, but even him could not bring himself to talk about it.
"Come on Ecklie, tell us!" said Sara.
"If you really care or pay any respect to either Catherine and Grissom, you should stop this."
"Are you saying you care and you respect Cath and Gris?" Warrick asked.
"Let's just say that there are things which are best to be forgotten."
With that last statement, the three young CSI's left Ecklie's office. The three of them has agreed to stop on trying to find out what happened before and this is caused by Ecklie's statement on caring and respecting Catherine and Grissom. And though they all know that it must be for the best that they do not know, they can't stop themselves to grow more curious, the last words from Ecklie's mouth wouldn't stop on ringing in their minds.
'Things, which are best to be forgotten.'
Who would have known that even Ecklie could be this affected? That there is a possibility that this man has a heart!
