Summary: It's Valentines Day and Catherine gets a poem from an anonymous person.


Dearest Beauty,

How was your interview with the owner of the club? I know that someone here was once special to you. I know it hurts because I loved someone once but I think your heart aches more that mine does or did.

I know you think someone is stalking you but I am closer to you than you can imagine. I am not a threat to you; so don't think ahead of the evidence. You might be surprised about who I am.

I promise by the end of the night, saying that it is only in the hour of 5:00 am, you will find out who I am. We both have a wile to go until this day is over.

Happy Valentines Day

Love,

Your Secret Valentine

"What's," that Nick said looking at Catherine. Catherine was now sitting in the driver side of the car.

"Nothing," she said shaking her head no and placing the letter in her lap.

"Cath, are you okay?"

"Yeah," Catherine said looking in the rear view window to back out.


"I'm sorry Gil," Ecklie said standing in the hallways of the lab. Catherine, Nick and Sophia had just walked in to the lab.

"Conrad, you just can't take the team off this case. Its huge," Grissom said.

"No you can't do that, Ecklie," Catherine immediately said putting her self in the conversation, "Where is the case going to go to?"

"This is none of you concern Catherine," Ecklie said.

"I'm a supervisor if you for got. So where will the case go," Catherine said in response.

Ecklie looked at Grissom after looking at Catherine. "The case will go to Day Shift," he finally said.

"So what are we suppose to do for the rest of the shift?" Catherine asked. She really didn't want to be at work doing noting, but then again she needed the money.

"Take their cases," Ecklie said before walking off. "They will be coming around to get all of their evidence," he said after stopping and walking off again.

"So we just let him take our case," Nick said, " This is bs."

"Nick calm down," Grissom said, " I'll have new cases when days comes to get their evidence. Until then find something to do, weather its paper work or helping someone out. Nick, tell Sara and Warrick about this. Do not leave this building until your cases are given," Grissom said giving his instructions clearly.

"Yes sir," Nick said grabbing his phone. Sophia had already left not wanting to have part in the conversation at all.


THE SECRETE ADMIER IS...YOU HAVE TO READ TO FIND OUT!

I had to give the case away to make the story go by faster. Sorry! But it just kind of adds a little drama to the story.
