Author's Note: Things are going to get better for the Speedle's I promise...adventually.

"How's the case going?" asked Tim through the phone.
"It's only been a couple of hours Tim...we got nothing."
"Where did Delko get with the prints?"
"There still running. Were thinking this guys a new criminal."
Tim nodded. "Well James couldn't have had any enemies. He was only on the job one day." stated Tim.
"Tim stop." started Calleigh. "We'll figure it out ok."
Tim nodded and lowered his head.
"Hey...hey." said Calleigh putting her hand on the glass seperating them. "Look at me."
Tim sighed and looked up tears in his eyes. "You did nothing wrong. We'll find the asswhole who murdered James."
"It's not just James Calleigh. There's a missing women out there, things between us are screwed up."
"Things between us are not screwed up."
"Oh face it Calleigh. Ever since you found out you couldn't have children all we've done is argue."
"Tim..."
"No Calleigh...i've been a jerk. I took the chance of you ever having your own child away from you. And I honestly don't know why you stay with me." said Tim honestly as tears ran down his cheeks.
"Because I love you. And for the last time, what happend to me was not your fault. It was the result of 3 angry people. And nothing more."
"No Calleigh your wrong. It is my fault. If I didn't push Danny to the ground and then run away from New York I would have never meet you. Causing you to lose your first baby and get shot."
"I would rather have had a miscarriage and get shot then to never have known you." said Calleigh her accent thick.
"Do yourself a favor Cal." said Tim tears still falling from his eyes. "Get out while you still can." said Tim and hung up the phone. "Guard." said Tim as he walked to the door.
"Tim..." Tim ignnored her and let the guard take him back to his holding cell.

"Horatio I swear I have only seen him cry twice in his life. At our wedding. And this afternoon."
"Well figure it out Cal."
Calleigh sighed heavily. "I know. But we got nothing."
"Well figure it out." repeated Horatio. Calleigh nodded and Horatio took her into a hug. "You hang in there."
Calleigh cried slightly. "I just want it all to be over."
"I know." said Horatio as he pulled apart from Calleigh slightly. "How did the talk with Kelly go?"
Calleigh sighed and sat down on the couch. "She wanted to know if we were still interested in a baby. I told her yeah. There's a single mom who lives in North Dakota who was raped and doesn't want her baby. She read our file. And wants to give us the baby."
"Well that's great." said Horatio sitting next to her.
"Yeah..." said Calleigh tears sliding down her cheeks. "Ever since Syracuse...all me and Tim have done is fight. I don't know...maybe...maybe he's right. Maybe were not meant to have a baby."
"Calleigh...look at me. You and Speed are my two favortie CSI'S. Just don't tell Delko." Calleigh laughed lightly. "You guys have been through so much. Nobody...and I mean nobody deserves this baby more then you two. And I promise you when you get this baby. I will do everything in my power to protect it. And if its a girl you have my word that she won't date until she's 60."
Calleigh laughed loudly and then sighed. "Thank you. I needed that."

"I got a hit off the set of prints Speedle gave me."
"And?"
"Well the palm print matches a Frankie Warner. But I got another hit. I think it belongs to our girl." said Eric as he handed the file over to Horatio.
"Melissa Warner."
"The perv rapped his own sister."
---TALLEIGH---
"Frankie Warner! Miami Dade pd. Open up!" said Frank as he pounded on the door.
"Sounds like nobody's home Frank." said Horatio. Just then they heared broken glass. And a man falling two stories to the ground. "You go see if the girl's inside. I got Frankie." said Horatio. Frank nodded nad entered the apartment.
"Miami-Dade police department! Freeze." said Horatio. "I said Freeze!"
Horatio chased Frankie down an alley and to a dead end, slamming him into the wall. "You just made a mistake my friend."
"I didn't do anything wrong and who the hell si Frankie?"
"Yes...yes you did. You've made tons of mistakes so far. And the first one was messing with my family."
---TALLEIGH---
"Where is he?" asked Calleigh.
"Frank's got him in interrogation. He's not giving anything up."
Calleigh sighed. "You anaylized the prints, there's got to be some way to get him."
"We can get him for rap but not for murder. He's not Frankie."
"What?"
"I took another look at the prints. I think Frankie's being framed."
"So who is he?"
"Jack Milton."
"Does he know Frankie?"
"Like I said. He's not talking."
Calleigh moaned in frustration. "This case is getting way to complicated."
"Speaking of cases. How's Speedle's going?"
"Thanks for remanding me. I need to get pictures taken."
---TALLEIGH---
"Turn to the left please." stated the department photographer.
Calleigh did as told. "So are you getting what you want Rick?"
"I'm just trying to find out the truth."
"I already told you." said Calleigh getting into Rick's face. "Tim wouldn't hurt a fly. And you just love this don't you. Take down one of Horatio's team is like taking down him. I told you Tim was sleeping when he did this. And you know that there's no way to prove that."
"Well...we'll see about that."
"No, I know what this is about. Yuor pissed off that Yelina left. And that me and Tim's relationship is stil strong."
"Strong? I think that's an understatment of the century."
