Chapter 1

Calleigh Duquesne stood in her lab over a microscope. It was way past her shift but she was determined to get this work done. Currently, she was comparing bullets, completely oblivious to everything else around her. She frowned, obviously deep in concentration. She did not even notice her boss, Lt. Horatio Caine come in.

He watched her for a few minutes, amused that she still did not realize he was there. He wondered that if he stayed quiet long enough if she would ever notice him in there. He took this time to take in just how beautiful she was. Her golden blonde her, her slim figure, and how cute she looked when she was concentrating. He grinned to himself and finally decided to get her attention.

"Hey Beautiful," he said playfully. Calleigh turned around sharply. She was obviously surprised to hear him.

"Horatio you should know not to sneak up on a girl like that," Calleigh smiled.

"Well if you weren't working so hard you would have noticed me enter," Horatio shot back and smiled at her.

"How long have you been there anyway?" Calleigh asked.

"For a few minutes," Horatio answered. Calleigh blushed and turned away slightly.

"Sorry," she said softly, her southern accent coming on strong. Horatio continued to smile at her.

"You work too hard, you should go home. Your shift ended an hour ago," Horatio said.

"Look who's talking," Calleigh replied. Horatio smirked and moved a little closer.

"So what are you working on anyway?" he asked.

"Just comparing bullets from our recent case," was Calleigh's response.

"Oh…" Horatio said quietly.

"Is something bothering you, Handsome?" Calleigh asked concern evident in her voice.

"Actually…yeah…" Horatio replied dryly.

"You wanna talk about it?" Calleigh pushed gently.

"Yeah…you see my problem is about this woman…" Horatio started. Calleigh nodded as her heart sank.

She was so much in love with Horatio but could never tell him that. She was afraid that she had waited too long now. Horatio let out a heavy sigh and edged on.

"I really love this woman. I love her so very much…but I'm afraid that she doesn't feel the same way about me…and I've been too afraid to tell her because if she doesn't feel the same way than my friendship with her will be ruined," Horatio said and paused for a moment.

"So it's a friend of his…damn, it's probably Yelina…" Calleigh thought to herself.

"I think that she's the most beautiful person in the world. She's just so special to me…it would hurt so much if she didn't feel the same way," Horatio finished. There was a slight pause and then Calleigh spoke.

"Wow Horatio…she'd be crazy not to return those feelings. You're a great person and not to mention you're handsome. Who is this woman anyway?" Calleigh said. She took a deep breath, thinking she already knew the answer.

"Well…" Horatio started out slowly. He suddenly seemed nervous. "Her name is…Calleigh."

Calleigh almost fell over in shock. Did she just hear him right?

"M-me?" she asked shyly. Horatio nodded. Suddenly a big grin spread across Calleigh face. "Oh Horatio…" She wrapped her arms around him and pulled him into an embrace. "I feel the same way about you," she whispered softly in his ear.

"Really?" Horatio wanted to be sure. When Calleigh nodded he could not contain his excitement. He picked her up into his arms and kissed her. He kissed her with all the passion he could summon.

Calleigh of course kissed him back with the same amount of immeasurable passion. After awhile they had to pull apart for some air. Horatio put Calleigh back on the ground and wrapped his arms around her protectively.

Calleigh loved the feel of his strong arms around her. She felt completely secure in these arms. Nothing could ever hurt her while she was in the warmth of them.

"I love you, Calleigh," Horatio said quietly in her ear.

"I love you, too, Horatio," Calleigh gave him a loving squeeze.

"Calleigh, I could stay like this forever," Horatio told Calleigh

"Me too, Handsome, me too," Calleigh replied and pulled Horatio into another passion filled kiss.
