Explosions

Tim beant down to Olivia's height and placed his arms on her hips to keep her from falling over. "What did you say, princess?"

"Dadda." said Olivia happily. Tim smiled and picked her up, holding her tight. He looked over at Calleigh who was smiling from ear to ear.

Tim kissed the top of Olivia's head. "You sure know how to ligten the mood, princess."

Olivia giggled happily and placed her hand on her father's stubbled face. "Dadda."

Explosions

Valera's eyes widened as she looked at all the case files on the table. "Ok, the next time we see Speed...tell him to lay off the over time."

Eric chuckled slightly to himself. "I don't think, H would let him do anymore overtime anyways."

Valera smiled and grabbed a case file. "So these are all the cases Tim's worked since he's been here?"

Eric nodded. "Yup."

Valera took a deep breath and sighed as she opened the file. "Alright, lets get this party started."

"Where are the girls?" asked Horatio as Tim and Calleigh sat down in the chair in front of his desk.

"There at my moms." replied Calleigh as she took Tim's hand in hers.

Horatio nodded. "Alright, so you said this was urgent."

Calleigh nodded as Tim looked away. "Hey called us." Calleigh paused. "Well, he called Tim. I just answered his cell."

Horatio nodded and looked over at Speed who was trying hard not to look up at him. "What did he say?"

Calleigh sighed and ran a hand through her hair. "A lot of non-since."

"Calleigh..."

"Well he said that Tim knew who he was but not exactly."

Horatio nodded. "Speed..."

"Huh?"

"You want to tell me who he is?"

"I don't know who he is."

"Alright, how do you know of him then?"

Tim sighed. "He killed my best friend right in front of me when I was 18. The police never caught him."

"Right, because the crime lab's weren't as well established back then." Tim nodded. "Did they have any suspects?"

Tim shook his head. "Not a one."

Horatio nodded. "So this is definatley him then?"

Tim nodded. "Yeah, its him. He sent me a letter when we went to New York."

"Do you still have it?"

Tim shook his head. "No, I tossed it. I didn't want to take the chance of Calleigh finding it."

Horatio nodded and watched as Calleigh gripped Tim's hand. "Alright, this...this is what I want to do. I think its time we invovled the feds in this."

Tim laughed lightly as he leaned forward and rested his elbows on his knees. "No..no way. I'm not involving them or IAB. This is my battle and i've got to stop it on my own."

"Speed this guy is dangerous. Your a witness to a crime and he wants to get rid of you."

"Well he can get rid of me then, because i'm not...just no Horatio."

"Speed the FBI and even IAB can give you the protection." Horatio paused for a second as he got up from his chair. "They can give you the protection that I can not."

"I already agreed to the un marked car outside the house. You think i'm going to agree to having men inside my house 24/7, watching my every move, every move Calleigh makes. No. I will not do it."

"Tim...maybe its a good idea. The more people there, the less chance he has of getting to you."

Tim nodded. "Right, and having an FBI's death on my hands is really going to make it easier for me Calleigh?"

Calleigh sighed and let go of his hand. "Horatio can we have a minute alone?" Horatio nodded and left. Calleigh got up from her seat and crouched down in front of him. "Hey, what are you so afraid of? Huh? Your scared that if FBI gets involved you won't be in control anymore. Well let me tell you something you haven't been in control of this cat and mouse game for a long, long time, Tim."

"Calleigh...I just can't. Ok, please understand that. If anybody is going to be protecting my family, it'll be me."
