I"M BACK!

Sorry for the delay. I've been having some issues with school and my health.

Tell me you missed me by reviewing.

Thanks again to KatieC!

Horatio entered the interview room, with Tripp following close behind him.

"Ned," he said, gently sitting down. "You sent a porn bomb to Philip Gordon's computer."

Ned looked at him innocently. "Okay I did. But the porn wasn't mine. I'm not a pedophile." He said, immediately on the defensive.

"You want to tell me why you sent it then?"

"Look," Ned said leaning forward slightly. "I moved to the Gables after I was released. I cleaned up, turned my life around. No one knew who I was and I could live in peace. Then the posters go up and people are visiting the FDLE website. My name comes up and I start getting harassed. I sent the porn to try…"

Suddenly a knock interrupted them. Horatio turned. Emily stood in the doorway.

"Can I see you when you're done?" She asked.

"Yes," he said with a smile. "Meet me in the break room okay?"

Emily nodded and walked out.

Horatio turned back to Ned, who had his eyes fixed on Emily's retreating form, a strange look on his face. He tensed as the anger started to build up inside him and fixed his eyes back on Ned with a steely glare.

"Ned," he said in an icy tone. "Do you want to continue?"

Ned seemed to snap out of it. "Oh. Yes. Anyway, I sent the porn to scare him away. I didn't think he would be killed. I didn't even look at it!"

"Ned," Horatio replied as he stood up. "You didn't have to."

He paused glaring at the convicted sex offender before him.

"If you ever look at her like that again, I'll find a way to put you away for a long time."

Ned looked up in shock. "What?"

Horatio looked back at the man, disgust showing clearly in his blue eyes. "So much for cleaning up your act."
