Wishing for Freedom
A/N: I don't own the characters or anything. Blah, don't sue. Sorry I haven't updated in a really long time. I've been really busy surviving eighth grade.
"How do you plead?" The judge asked the defendant.
"Not guilty." Replied John Hagen.
Horatio sat in the prosecutor's side of the courtroom, with Calleigh next to him, clenching and unclenching his fists. Anyone with half a brain could tell that he was guilty. He had repeatedly abused and harassed his Calleigh. His Bullet girl. As if Calleigh had read his thoughts, she slipped her hand into his and started stroking his knuckles.
"Has the jury reached a verdict?" The judge asked.
"We have your honor."
"How does the jury find the defendant?"
"Guilty." Answered the jury member.
Calleigh cried out happily and threw her arms around Horatio's neck, tears of joy spilling down her cheeks. He protectively wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her back, tears of his own welling up in his eyes.
"It's over." Calleigh sighed into his neck. "It's finally over."
"I'll never let anyone hurt you again. I love you Calleigh." Horatio proclaimed.
"You don't know how long I've waited for you to say that." Calleigh answered. "I love you too."
"C'mon. Let's go home."
