Hi! New Chapter! I'm sorry if it took me to long to upload it. I had some personal problems...yeah. Well, this chapter might be a bit bored. Not much action. Just how it all started.
I hope you all enjoy!
"Okay."
"In first place, why are you crying?"- Sara questioned Morgan. She took a deep breath, cleaned her tears and started.
"Well… I… I… I can't. I can't find the words to say it."- Morgan started to cry again. Sara noticed that someone was standing on the entrance. She turned around and saw Greg standing there.
"Can I come in?"- He simply asked. Morgan looked up and nodded with her head. Greg quickly got in and closed the door. Morgan looked at him straight in the eyes with sadness, emptiness, guiltiness, desire and melancholy, all on a look.
"I am sorry…"- She whispered never breaking the connection. Greg started to shock his head. He knelled beside her, holding her by her face he whispered as well.
"I'm not mad at you. You are very stubborn, you are…"- Greg said with a small smile. - "But I'm not mad at you…never. I'm mad at him."- Morgan looked down with a small smile herself and kissed him. Greg wanted to respond to her kiss but they were interrupted by Sara.
"What a heck is going on here?!"- They both looked in sync and remembered Sara was there with them. – "Okay…Please explain me."
Greg and Morgan looked at each other thinking about what to say.
"Ah… well… we…" – Greg tried to explain. Morgan glanced at him, wordless as well.
"So?"- Sara requested.
"You can go. I can handle this."- Morgan said to Greg. He hesitated, considering everything she had been through. He didn't admit, but he wasn't sure if Morgan could say it out loud to another person what was happening to her. He still remembered the day he found out, two years ago.
*****FlashBack*****
It was a calm day. He arrived home near 8am, as usual. Ate his breakfast, took a quick shower and went to bed. Around 4pm, Greg woke up by the doorbell.
"Who the hell is knocking on the door?"- He mumbled to himself getting up from the bed. Despite the calm shift he had had, he was a bit grumpy. When Greg opened the door, he saw Morgan standing there crying.
"Morgan, what's going on? Never mind. Come in."- She entered the house feeling scared. Greg leaned her to the sofa and they sat there. She just sat, with her knees close to her chest, crying. Greg couldn't take her eyes off of her.
"You wanna talk?"- He asked putting a hand on her shoulder. Morgan instantly, tried to escape from his hand, like it was something bad. Like he was going to hurt her. Greg noticed, and took his hand off of her shoulder, letting her a little bit more relaxed.
"What happened?"- After his question, all that could be ear in the living room were sobs. After an hour, just silence. Greg hadn't taken his eyes from her. He was examining her, every sob, every tear, every small movement.
"Morgan…"- He whispered.
"You are shirtless…"- She simply said never taking her eyes off the ground. Greg looked down at his body and notice that he was indeed shirtless.
"Sorry…I was asleep. I like to sleep shirtless, when is hot."
Morgan for the first time in an hour and a half looked at him in the eyes.- "I know you do."- Putting a hand on his chest, she started to get close to him. Initially she only gave him soft kisses on the neck but eventually her kisses started to get bolder.
"Morgan… what are you doing?"- She ignored it, climbing on top of him. She kissed his mouth this time, moving her hands down his chest. -"Morgan, stop it! We are not going to do this!"- Greg exclaimed looking at her in the eyes.
"I thought you wanted."- She answered him with tears in her eyes again.
"I wanted. I still do but you are a married woman. We can't."- Greg said cleaning tears from her green eyes- ."Just tell me what happened."- By this time, Morgan was already sat on the sofa. She took a long deep breath and started to talk, crying:
"Do you remember the time he slapped me? "
"How could I forget? You came here, you told me that you missed me, we had sex and two days later, you married him."- Greg answered with a sad and hurt tone.
"I know. I'm sorry."- Morgan whispered with a guilty tone. -"This time, he did more than just a slap."- She said crying again.
"What do you mean?"- Greg asked with a concerned and angry tone. Morgan sighed and slowly lifted her shirt, showing bruises on her belly and torso.
"That son of a bitch did that to you?"- Greg got up from the sofa feeling angry as hell. Morgan nodded.
"Where is he?"
"I don't know Greg, he left the house."- He was already walking from one side to another shaking his fist. -"Greg I don't need you to protect me, I need you to support me. Please calm down."- Greg tried to calm himself and after a few moments he sat beside her and hugged her closely to his chest.
"I'm sorry Greg."- She apologized looking at his beautiful brown eyes.
"Don't be… I'm gonna help you getting out of this situation, okay?"
*****End of the FlashBack*****
"If you need anything, just call me, okay?"- Morgan nodded while Greg was giving her a kiss on the top of the head. He then, walked through the office and left.
Sara looked at Morgan confused. Morgan gave her a small shy smile.
"So… you and Greg are having an affair. How did that happened?"
"Well… when I started to work here as a CSI, he and I had a fling. But then I started to date Daniel and I told Greg that things were not going to work between us. He took it well… I guess."- Morgan stopped thinking very clearly about what to say next. –"As you know, after a year Daniel proposed me. Two days before the weeding… he… he slapped me. I went to Greg's place and you know."
"Wait… Daniel slapped you?"- Sara asked incredulous. –"Wow…let me see if I get it straight, Daniel slapped you, you asked for Greg's help and it was when the affair started? Before the wedding?"- Sara questioned Morgan feeling more confuse than ever.
"No. I asked Greg for he's forgiveness and said that it was a mistake, because Daniel promised me that it was just that time. He swore that he was never going to hurt me again. It was like I was under a spell."
"No. You were in love."- Sara said with a mere sentence.
"No, I wasn't. The affair started, a month before the wedding."- Morgan was feeling her hurt biting widely. Some tears escaped from her eyes. -"It all started after Daniel…well…after Daniel…beat me. I reached for Greg's help again, and it all started."
Sara looked at her, wordless, feeling angry and bad for her friend.
"So…you are saying that Daniel beats you?"
"Yeah. Sometimes he just insults me. Other times it is worst."- Morgan admitted putting a hand on her ribs.
"He was been abusing you for the past two years and you haven't done anything about it?"
"I can't Sara."- Sara got up from her seat, approached Morgan and hugged her, making the young CSI cry.
"Please Sara, you can't tell anyone about this. Or do anything about this. You have to promise."- Morgan begged after breaking the hug.
"No, of course not. I'm here for you, okay? But you have to do something about this. You can't spend the rest of your life living with a man who beats you and having an affair with other one."
"I know. I wanna leave this life more than anything. I wanna be with Greg. But for now, I can't leave Daniel, he would kill me."
"Oh Morgan…"- Sara whispered pulling her into another hug, but she was interrupted by her phone.
"Go Sara. I'll be fine."
Sara left the office, letting Morgan, there alone with her thoughts.
