Chapter Two-Final Heartache Part Two

"Cath," yelled Grissom running over to her.

"Gil…get him away from me," replied Catherine faintly.

"Okay," said Grissom, then walked up to Eddie and punched him in the face.

Grissom grabbed the gun out of Eddie's hands and pointed it at him.

"Leave or I will shoot you," said Grissom, still had the gun raised at Eddie, chucked Catherine his cell phone.

Catherine then called 911.

"Alright I'll leave, but not with out hitting Catherine one more time," replied Eddie walking up to Catherine who was on the couch with a gunshot wound in her right shoulder, then punched her in the nose.

At the hospital.

"Gil," said Catherine weakly.

"Yeah what?" replied Grissom.

"Thanks for earlier, I mean for getting Eddie away from me," said Catherine.

"There was no way you could have got him away from you. That's why I'm here for you," replied Grissom.

"I can't stay with him it's not fair on Lindsey," said Catherine, starting to cry.

"I know, why didn't you listen to me?" asked Grissom.

"I was worried for Lindsey, I don't want to go back by myself if he is there," replied Catherine.

"When the doctor lets you go I will take you home so you can get your stuff and come stay with me," said Grissom, pulling Catherine into a hug.

"I need to know that you will always be here for me and Lindsey," replied Catherine.

"I'm here for you and Lindsey and I always will be," said Grissom looking deeply into Catherine's eyes, seeing fear but also seeing love and desire.

'Hurry up and kiss me,' thought Catherine to herself.

It's as if Grissom could read her mind because he suddenly pulled her closer to him and kissed her, Catherine wrapped her free arm around his neck.

Grissom's house 1:18 a.m., Grissom helped Catherine out of the car and walked her inside the house.

"Thanks again for everything you have done for me tonight," said Catherine when she sat down on the couch.

"That's okay," replied Grissom sitting down next to Catherine on the couch.

Catherine lightly kissed Grissom on the lips which escalated into a more deep passionate kiss. Grissom gently laid Catherine down on her back being careful of her shoulder and Catherine wrapped her free arm around his neck, running her hand through his hair.

"Gil," said Catherine breathlessly.

"Mm-hm," mumbled Grissom in reply.

"I love you," said Catherine.

"I love you too," replied Grissom.
