Notes: Glad to see you all liked it! Sorry about the wait; I was going to post it yesterday, but I just couldn't get it to sound right. Anyway, without further ado, here's chapter two (Haha, I rhymed!).

Maybe, Chapter 2 (Catherine's POV)

Maybe.

It's a word that I think summarizes mine and Gil's relationship perfectly. Well, at least up until eight months ago. The limbo my feelings put me in for several years of our friendship before that, makes me think it's very accurate.

You see, ever since a week or so after I met Gil, I pretty much knew how I felt about him. Sometimes, I thought maybe I should just go for it, but then I realized how great we were just as friends, and I didn't want to lose that, so I pushed it to the back of my mind.

I was doing pretty well when Ed came along. And then I pretty much forgot all about Gil as more than a friend. Ed was hot, he was exciting, and he was interested. We were married within two months.

Gil and I stayed friends throughout my marriage. Occasionally, I had an innapropriate dream or thought about him, but for the most part, I kept all those feelings away until I divorced Ed. But then they came rushing back like a spring had been released, only they were much stronger than I remembered them to be. Gil, along with my feelings for him were in my head almost constantly.

Maybe I should tell him. Maybe I shouldn't.

My brain and my heart had that argument daily, for several years. But my brain always won...until that day eight months ago. Until I finally lost it and told him. I didn't take the time to think about the consequences; I just blurted out one morning.

Although it was actually a good thing, because it turned out he loved me too.

Then we kissed. I decided that Gil Grissom is the best kisser in the world, and there's still no maybe about that.

TBC... (Again, with 2 or more reviews only...)
