DISCALIMER: I don't own CSI Miami and i don't make any money from it

Chapter 10

Chapter 10.

It was a couple of weeks later and Calleigh's bruises was almost gone, but the relationship was only getting worse, it was either fighting over everything or raw animal sex. It was not that Calleigh didn't like it, it was just she wanted more. And for every day Horatio kept a more and more watchful eye over her even though he never asked how she was she knew he didn't like that she had taken John back and that he knew that they were having trouble.

And these days John wasn't her only problem, her father was giving her a lot to, going back and forth to the bottle non stop.

Calleigh sat on font of her laptop at the lab and let out a heavy sigh when she heard someone say: Calleigh are you ok?

"Fine, what about you?" she replied without looking up, she knew it was Horatio all to well.

"A bit tired, it has been a lot lately" he said.

"Sure has" she replied with another heavy sigh.

"And personal?" he asked.

"It's a lot but I'm doing ok I guess" she said.

"Only ok?" he replied.

"It could have been worse" she said.

"That's true, so how are your bruises?" he asked.

"Better" she said and looked down.

"Mind if I confirm that" he said.

"No" she said and took her peach top of so he could see.

Horatio looked at the bruises that were fading away then at her wrists and said: Those have to be new.

"They are we got a bit carried away you know" she said and looked down, since John had been a bit rough when he tied her to his bed with his handcuffs, it was a little to much for her taste.

"I see, didn't know you liked that kind of thing" he said.

"It was a one time thing" she admitted.

Horatio let his fingers gently caress her back and Calleigh closed her eyes and let out a soft moan. He let his fingers slide down her spine as she let out another moan a little louder this time.

Then he let them slide up her spine to her shoulders and down her arms as she let out a couple of more moans and he got closer and let his head rest on her shoulder as his hands gently locked around her wrists to not cause her any discomfort.

"Horatio what are you doing?" she asked surprised as her eyes were still closed.

"Easing your pain" he said.

"I'm not in any pain" she said.

"Maybe not visible, but I know you are" he whispered softly into her ear.

Calleigh didn't replay, she just let out a soft sigh and let him hold her, not caring that they were at the lab and she was not wearing a top and that it would look badly if anyone saw them.

Tim who was in the autopsy room with Eric said: Did you ever get those results regarding that knife of Calleigh?

"No, we can stop by on the way up" he said.

"Maybe I'll ask her out for lunch while we're there" said Tim.

"And the chance for she's going to say yes to that is" said Eric.

"Why not, it's not like she's taken and we're all friends" said Tim.

"Tim, she's seeing John" said Eric.

"You're kidding whatever would she ever see in him" said Tim.

""No idea, shall we go over then" said Eric since they were done with the autopsy.

"Yeah thanks Alexx" said Eric as they left her and headed over to the firearms lab.

"What the hell, I though you said she was with John" said Tim when he saw Horatio holding an almost topless Calleigh in his arms while their eyes were closed.

"She is so why the heck is he holding her like that" sad Eric confused.

"No idea, but the both seem to like it" said Tim with a sigh.

"Yeah never though she liked H that way, but they sure make a cute couple" said Eric.

"They do, you think they ever did anything" said Tim.

"Nah doubt it, so shall we interrupt or leave them be" said Eric.

"Leave them be since it looks like they are sleeping standing up" said Tim.

"Yeah no idea how they can do that, last one up buy lunch" said Eric and sat up.

"No fair you started to soon" said Tim and headed after.

"Horatio we shouldn't this isn't right" Calleigh suddenly said and broke free feeling badly for letting him stoke her and holding her like that even if it felt so right.

"I'm sorry, it won't happen again I promise" he said and looked at her as she put the top back on.

"I better" she said and got back to her laptop.

"I have to" he said and left just as he saw John coming towards the firearms lab, they nodded polite at each other as they passed each other.

"Hey honey" said John from the door.

"Oh hey sugar, what brings you by" surprised by seeing him.

"Just wanted to hear if you have any plans tonight" he said as he got behind her.

"No, nothing and I might get of earlier than usual to why?" she said.

"Thought maybe we could do hey why do you smell Hugo Boss like Horatio did you two do anything?" he asked in disbelief.

"No I didn't do anything I swear" she said, her eyes focused on the computer screen.

"Then how come you smell like him?" John asked again.

"I dunno, he stood kinda close it my have rubbed of" she said.

"How close exactly?" said John angrily.

"Behind me like you do now" she sad.

"I don't believe you" he said.

"Then don't cause I really didn't do anything you know I ain't cheating" she said.

"You better not cause if I find out you did not even he will be able to help you" he said.

"John you're scaring me, please don't talk like that" she said honest.

"Hmm so when shall I come over" he said as his hands where pressing around her neck hardly.

"Around four and would you let go" she said firmly.

John let go and said: See you later then honey.

He left and Calleigh's hands went to her neck and rubbed it a bit to ease the pain a bit hoping he didn't leave marks behind.

Why did he have to be like this all the time, it really scared her, but as usual she just shook it of and kept on working.

Calleigh was a home a little before three and quickly found a paper and wrote:

Horatio, why is he messing me up so badly, why does he have to complicate things, it's not like I can have him, he's after all my boss and I'm with John that would just be wrong.

And yet when he held me it felt so right, I felt so safe like noone could ever harm me again because he was protecting me.

I sure could use some protecting these days since John is getting darker and darker and he scares me, he really does, why is he acting like that, was he always like this only I didn't see it before now.

I'm so confused and I dunno what to do, I really wanna break it of with John, but I'm afraid he'll get really pissed and will go after me if I try and I don't need that right now.

All I want is to run away to escape, I miss my Dave so badly, if I only could run back to him and we could hide in the apple threes like we used to if only for a while, I need to get away, I need help cause I'm really lost.

Calleigh folded the paper and put it in the safe before she took out the locket and put it on.

And before she really knew what she was doing, she left her phone behind, locked up and left, she didn't care about the consequences anymore, she just needed to get away.
