Calleigh buried her face in Tim's pillow, trying to quiet her sobs that were becoming uncontrollable. She felt the bed sink down and heard Sammy's voice. Sitting up, Calleigh pushed her hair out of her tear streaked face and looked at her daughter.

"What's the matter sweetie?"

"Why are you crying?" Sammy asked.

"I just miss Daddy, a lot and I want him home." Calleigh replied, wiping her eyes. "Come here."

Sammy crawled into her arms and Calleigh held her tightly, rocking her slightly.

"It's all my fault."

"What is?" Calleigh asked.

"Why Daddy's gone." Sammy replied.

"Don't say that!"

"It's true! If I hadn't started yelling for you then he'd never had gone outside!"

"Samantha stop it!" Calleigh scolded. "Honey, please. I don't want to yell at you. Don't even think that for a second. Come on, back to bed."

She led her daughter back across the hall to her own room and tucked her into bed. Calleigh kissed her forehead lightly and brushed a strand of hair out of her blue eyes.

"I love you."

"I love you too Mommy."

Calleigh smiled softly and walked back into her bedroom, collapsing onto the bed. She didn't know how long she had lay there crying. She had fallen asleep and then woke up when she heard something downstairs. Calleigh sat up and stared suspiciously out into the hallway. She quietly grabbed her gun out of the bedside table and crept down the stairs, her gun trained in front of her.

"Now... would you really shoot me?"

Calleigh dropped the 9mm, narrowly missing her right foot. She stood at the bottom of the stairs for a few seconds before rushing over to the door and immediately had her lips on Tim's. Neither of them wanted to stop but they soon pulled away for air.

"H-How did you..."

"Get out?"

Calleigh nodded.

"I'll tell you later." Tim mumbled. "God Calleigh..."

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry about Friday." she cried.

"I know." Tim kissed her again softly. "Don't worry about it. Are you okay?"

"I should be asking you that!" Calleigh exclaimed, laughing slightly.

"I'm fine. What about you? The baby? Sammy?"

"We're fine."

"Good. God Calleigh I love you so much."

"I love you too. Don't. Ever. Do. This. Again!" she pulled away from him slightly and looked over him. "You were at the lab."

"How'd you know?"

"These are the clothes from your locker. I want to know what happened." Calleigh said quietly.

"Later." Tim replied. "I... I just want to be with you."

And Calleigh couldn't object.

S/C----------

Tim opened one eye slightly when he felt Calleigh move away from him, or rather be pushed away from him. Sammy's blonde ponytail hit him in the face as she tried to get comfortable between her parents.

"Hey, easy there munchkin." he mumbled. "You're gonna kill someone with that ponytail one day."

Sammy rolled over and smiled brightly at Tim.

"Where ya been?"

"Long story. Shh... you're gonna wake Mommy up." Tim kissed her forehead and quickly and held her against him. "You been good?"

"Maybe."

"I hope maybe means yes."

Sammy smiled innocently and nodded. Calleigh stirred slightly and opened her eyes slowly. She smiled at Tim over Sammy's shoulder and he gave her a slight grin.

"Why don't you go put the TV on and we'll be down in a few minutes." Tim said. Sammy nodded and crawled over him to get out of bed. She ran out of the room and Tim didn't talk into he heard Dora the Explorer come on. He glanced at Calleigh and saw the look on her face. "I'm really here."

"I want a full explanation Speedle."

"You'll get one later." he mumbled.

"No. Now Tim."

"Cal..."

"Tim, I want to know what's been going on. I thought you were dead. You scared the shit out of me."

"I know and I'm sorry. You want an explanation? You got one. I went outside because I saw him run towards the fence. When I got out there I couldn't see him and then the cloth went over my mouth. Then I ended up in a cellar of some kind. I was stuck there for a day then Webster came in and said he was leaving, no one would find me, I was gonna die there. He didn't tie me up that time. I found a cell phone and called Horatio. The reception was bad so he hung up without saying anything. So I called you. Same thing happened. Next thing I know Frank is busting the door down and we ran out just in time before the building went up. Then I had to go to the lab and hand myself over since I was evidence. Then I got dressed, went to the station, gave my statement and then I came home."

"How did Frank know where you were?"

"Horatio got the information out of Webster and told Frank to find me, just in time too." Tim said.

"What do you mean?" Calleigh asked.

"Someone... someone placed a bomb in the building and it went off seconds after we got out."

"Oh my God..."

"Hey, look it's over. I'm here. I'm fine." Tim pulled Calleigh closer to him and rubbed her back soothingly. "What's going on with your dad?"

"Did you have to bring it up?" she asked quietly.

"Everything all right?"

"No. Evidence says he killed the kid, who was celebrating his birthday." Calleigh said. Tim sighed. He kissed her softly and then rested his forehead against her's.

"Baby I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault he got drunk."

"I know but I wish I was there to help you."

"Couldn't do anything about it. Still bothering me now so you didn't miss out on much." Calleigh muttered. "It hurts you know."

Tim nodded.

"I mean... you're gone and then he ends up being a murderer. Half of me wants to lie and say he didn't do it but the other half doesn't. It's like I want him to rot in jail for the rest of his life."

"You got to do what's right and though this sounds harsh, doing your job is what's right."

"I know." Calleigh mumbled. "You want breakfast?"

"I'll live. Horatio will be coming back with Webster today and we get to listen to the interrogation."

"Now there's someone I want to rot in jail."

Tim gave a quirky smile and kissed Calleigh.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"If you want breakfast I'll make it." Tim offered. "You can stay here, relax."

"If anyone in this family is relaxing it will be you. You're the one that got abducted." Calleigh said.

"We could stay here together."

"I think Sammy will get lonely downstairs."

"Yeah there's that little minor setback." Tim smirked. Calleigh slapped his chest lightly. "She can come join us. SAMMY!"

There was the sound of tiny feet running up the stairs and an out of breath Sammy appeared in the doorway.

"What?"

"Come here."

Sammy crawled up between her parents and looked between the two of them.

"What?" she repeated.

"Nothing." Tim replied. "I just want to spend some time with my two favorite girls... and maybe my little guy in there."

He leaned over Sammy and rested his hand on Calleigh's stomach.

"Or another favorite girl." she said.

"When is it coming?" Sammy complained.

"Soon." her parents replied, smiling at each other.

S/C---------

"I've never not finished a couple off." Webster said. "It's been driving me crazy that I never finished Tim and Calleigh off."

Horatio stared at the murderer like he was crazy, which he was.

"How did you kill your guard?" he asked.

"Made a makeshift knife out of my toothbrush and razor." Webster replied. "I'll do it again Caine."

"No because after this... you'll get the chair."

"Nothing can stop me."

"Death can."
