A/N: I know everyone hates Stetler but i actually kinda sorta like the guys and in this fic him Tim and Calleigh are friends. Because you know it seemed like he was the only one who cared about the CSI'S in season 3 because Horatio seemed to only care about himself.Also the FED that is in this story is the one from the cross over episode between Miami and Las Vegas he was also in the Wannabe episode. I just couldn't remember his name. So if one of you guys know could you tell me that would be great. THNX!

"SO you guys don't know anything?" asked a concered Stetler.

"We told you we didn't." said Speed in the interrogation room with Stetler and Calleigh. "Shouldn't you be asking the admistration office at Madison's school on why they would higher a murderer."

"I was getting to that." said Stetler. "I just thought I would ask you guys how you were doing first."

"Well were just peachy." snapped Calleigh. "I'm sorry." said Calleigh as Tim rubbed her back.

"It's alright I understand. I promise you guys were going to find her. Besides you got bigger fish to fry." said Stetler as one of the FEDS walked up to the door and opened it.

"Speedle. Duquesne. We need to talk."

"I think i made it very clear that my name is Calleigh Speedle." Calleigh was very defensive towards her last name. She wasn't going to be one of those celebrity's who married an actor and didn't change their last name because they were afraid nobody would recognize them after.

"Sorry." said the FED like he actually cared. "Listen we need to talk about this."

"Um...i'm not really in the mood to talk to you right now." said Speed getting out of his seat.

"Well I don't care what you want Speedle...your daughter was just kidnapped. Don't you care."

"UH-oh" muttered both Calleigh and Stetler that was a button you didn't want to push with Tim Speedle. Everyone who knew him knew that he loved Madison more then anything, well except for Calleigh. Anyone who knew him knew that he would die before he let anything happen to his family.

"You listen to me and you listen to me good. Don't you think for one second that I do not love my daughter. Because the enitre time that she has been my daughter i have done nothing but love her and take care of her. Now if your going to come in here with your acqusations you can just get the hell out! Because i do not need someone like you trying to find my daughter.'' said a very angry Tim (sorry i couldn't resist making Tim angry because i just think he's so cute when hes angry LOL)

"Is that right?"

"Yeah that's right." said Tim who went for the door.

"Where do you think your going Speedle?"

"Away from you before I do something that would make me lose my job." said Tim as he opened the door.

"Tim.." said Calleigh teary eyed.

"I'm sorry Cal, but I have to get out of here."

"Well would you atleast tell me where your going...Tim I just lost my daughter I don't want to lose you to."

"I'm going to find some answer's." yelled Tim as he walked out of the room angrily.

Calleigh sighed.

"I hope your happy Speedle. Your husband may have just lost his job."

"What?'' said Calleigh.

"Listen you don't have the authority to do that I believe I.A.B. does and i see no grounds to fire Speedle. His daughter was just kidnapped for christ sack."

"Are you siding with a CSI Rick?"

"Yes... I am."

"Well I'd be careful if I were you I control your job." said the FED as he walked out of the room.

Tim sighed as he ignored his cell phone again he knew were he was going and he knew that if he talked to Calleigh right now she would be able to talk him out of it.

"Jason..." said Speed as the guard brought in Jason and set him down at a table.

"Speedle...to what do i owe this visit?"

"Cut the crap. I know you worked with Jack Brown and I know you told him to kidnap my daughter...so where is she?"

"Your daughter was kidnapped. I'm so sorry I had no idea."

"Yeah i'll believe that when you get parol."

"Well that may be sooner then you think." said Jason who laughed out loud.

"Where the hell have you been?" asked an angry Horatio when Tim walked into the break room.

"I told Calleigh I went to go look for answers."

"And did you find them?"

"No." Tim stated regreatfully. "Where is she?"

"She's in her office." Tim nodded and left the room.

Tim walked through the ballstics lab and came to a door which was closed. He knocked softly. "Go away." sobbed Calleigh.

"Honey, its me open up."

"Come in." said Calleigh as Tim opened the door. He saw Calleigh trying to wipe away her tears but it was no use she had mascara all over the place.

"Its no use." said Tim as he neeled down next to Calleigh in her chair.

Calleigh sighed. "Tim...I just want her back." whispered Calleigh.

"I know sweetheart." said Tim as he stood up and picked Calleigh up and took her spot in her chair and let Calleigh sob onto his shoulder.

"It's just not fair." said Calleigh looking in Tim's chocolate eyes and she got lost for a second. Even after all this time of being together Calleigh could still get lost in his eyes and some times she didn't know why.

"I know...Calleigh I wish there was something I could do then say that I'm sorry. But there's not."

"It's ok." Calleigh sniffed. "I know you'd do anything to protect us and I love you for that."

"Maddy probably thinks I don't love her anymore." muttered Tim.

"Tim Maddy knows you love her, I know you love her, hell this whole lab knows you love her, You talk about her all the time. You bring her here all the time you put pictures of her on the bulletin board for crying out loud... And don't you even think for one second that she blames you for this, she knows you would have tooken a bullet for her. She looks up to and she trust you and she knows that you'll do everything in your power to bring her home."

And then it happend something that Calleigh Duquesne had never seen Tim Speedle ever do. She saw him cry.

"Oh, honey come here." said Calleigh tucking Tim's head under her chin and rubbing his back gently. "It's gonna be ok."

"You probably think i'm a big baby." Tim chocked out and wrapped his arms tight around her waist.

"No, no I don't think that for one second . Tim look at me." said Calleigh as she craddled his face in her hands. "I love you and lord knows you have seen me cry. Everybody cries Tim. Its ok."

"But i'm the man of the house. I'm supposed to be strong and support our family and i failed." said Tim wiping his eyes.

"Tim everybody makes mistakes...everyone slips up every once in awhile. I know i've mad mistakes. Tim honey...there was nothing that you could have done she was at school." Tim turned his face away form Calleigh and Calleigh pulled it back to face hers. "You did nothing wrong. You understand me. Nothing." Tim nodded. "So your the man of the house huh?" said Calleigh with a smirk.

"Well yeah." said Tim leaning in to kiss Calleigh.

"Well Damn the Man." said Calleigh as she leaned in as well.

TBC...

sorry i couldn't resist with the whole damn the man quote again. And is it just me or do you jsut wanna cry and think tim's incredibly sexy when he cries kinda like he did in wannabe in the elevator.
