AN: Well I thought of something different, well it's before the show, Catherine is 17, and Gil is 22, this is originally the end of the story, but it's chapter 1, confused, I know it's confusing, but it's the end of my story of how they met, well the end of it is quite open, but I thought that's where the show fits in and stuff, I mean we know that in the end they are at least best friends in Vegas, (watch CSI if you don't know what I'm talking about), I thought of making chapter 2 the beginning and then telling the story in the right order. Maybe you could write me what you think what happened before, and if you want to know. This chapter is a song chappie as well, but it's they only one in this story, I think.

Rating: K+

Disclaimer: Not my characters, not my song either. The song is "Against all odds" by Phil Collins, the characters belong to J.B., A.Z. etc.

Feedback: As mentioned would be nice. can I get some in pink and green? please;)

Summary: … take a look at him now, there's just an empty space, nothing left there to remind him, just the memory of her face, and she coming back to him is against all odds, so that's what he's got to face …G/C..he is 22 and Cath is 17…for now

Chapter 1: Nothing Left To Remind Him

He, a 22 year old forensic scientist, is sitting at a bench in golden gate park in San Francisco.
An hour ago he watched her train leave and ride of to Las Vegas.
He never met anyone he was so good with.
From the first few minutes he talked with her, a 17 year old science student from Montana, he knew that she is kind of a soul mate to him. But she had at least told him where she is.
She seemed kind of sad to as she needed to leave.
But he said that he would come down to Vegas later but that he needs to work here first.

How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all

But he couldn't do anything to stop her leaving either.
He knows that she has to go to Vegas.
But he promised her to come to Vegas later.
And he hopes that he can keep his promise.

How can you just walk away from me,
When all I can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all

Just sitting there he dreams of his life.
He dreams of her in his life.
He dreams that she's there with him.
And he dreams of Vegas.
Now he knows what he has to do.
He knows that he has to finish work here as fast as he could.

So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
Just the memory of your face
Ooh take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds and that's what I've got to face

He wishes he could make her coming back but that would be too much.
He's crying.
And hoping that he can leave San Francisco as soon as possible.

I wish I could just make you turn around,
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you,
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all

She was there with him only 4 weeks.
But she is the only person knowing him at all.
She knows more about him than his parents do.
But now she's gone and he's hoping to see her again.

So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now, cos there's just an empty space

But he can't do anything about it.
He can just wait and hope for his future.
He just can hope for their future.
A future in Vegas, together.

But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now, cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take

That's all he can do.
So he stands up and tries to live his life again.

Take a look at me now

The END;) points down
