Catherine went into the room where Ashley was, sat down, and proceeded to go on with the investigation.

"There done. You are officially 21." Holds up the fake id.

"Thank you. So where do you want to go?"

"I'm not sure. Let's find somewhere close by."

"Ok. Let me get dressed."

She stood up with just the sheet covering her, and walked into the bathroom. She turned on the light, turned the nozzle on the shower to warm, shut the door, slid out of the sheet, and stepped in. the warm shower water was invigorating to her somewhat cold body. She hadn't noticed he came in the shower until he put his hands on her shoulders.

"Ahh Oh… you scared me."

"(Chuckles) sorry I didn't know I had that effect on you."

"It's fine. Would you wash my back?"

"Sure."

He took the rag from her and slid it across her shoulders. She leaned her head back and sighed. She was going to love this new lifestyle. She was going to be a wife in a few minutes.

"How's that?"

"Mmm. Lovely."

"Come on let's go the place I found closes in about an hour."

"Ok."

She rinsed off, turned off the shower, grabbed a towel, and stepped out of the shower. She dried quickly and started to put on her clothes when Grissom stopped her.

"What are you doing?"

"I bought you something else to wear."

He slid out a delicate white dress from a bag and held it out in front of her.

"Oh! It's beautiful! Where and when did you get it?"

"I got it at dolce and gabbana and I had it in the car when I came and got you."

She unzipped the back and stepped in, pulling the straps on her shoulders. She went to the full length mirror and modeled it for him.

"What do you think?"

"It's perfect. Come on let's go."

Detective brass had one of grissom's arms when he cam in the room where Catherine and Ashley were sitting. She got up and ran over to him, hugging him, crying softly. Catherine got up, and left the room with brass, and went into another room where they could hear what they were saying.

"Gil… I'm so scared. (Sobs)"

"What are you scared of baby?"

"(Sniffles) that I might the baby in jail! (Sobs harder)"

"No no don't think that. It's going to be ok. I promise you."

"Can you believe this? It's like I don't know him anymore."

"I don't think we all do."

"Warrick. Finally. What have you got?"

"They both lied to us. They did get married. Here's a copy of their license. They got married at the… chapel of the arts. It's a block from the stardust."

Catherine took the paper from Warrick and studied it carefully. Husband: Gil Grissom Wife: Ashley Grissom "It can't be true! He… I don't know who he is. He's not my friend I knew 5 years ago."

"Ok thanks."

"Welcome."

Gil and Ashley finally sat down at the end of the table, holding hands, waiting for Catherine or Brass. Catherine, angry, and confused went in first. She slammed the paper down on the table scaring both of them.

"You lied to me! You two did get married! I thought you could never lie Gil?!"

"Only in extenuating circumstances. This happened to be one of them."

"Really? Well I think we have enough evidence to book you. Get him out of here."

Brass and two other officers came in the room, and handcuffed grissom. Ashley got out of her chair and followed them.

"Gil Grissom you're under arrest for statutory rape. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law…"

"Gil!"

Ashley went over to him, and kissed him. They kissed until brass pulled them apart, walking him down to booking.

"I love you!"

"I love you too baby! Don't forget!"

"I won't."

Catherine stood beside Ashley while they took him away. In a way she felt bad for the teenager. She knows what it's like to lose the one you love.

"Do you know how we found you and Grissom?"

"No I never figured that part out."

"When he wasn't here we went to his house and saw he wrote down your address, and a number of hotel numbers. We went to all of them until we found you two. You're not going to jail. He will for about 5 years, and then legally you two can be together."

"I hope so."

"Gil Grissom, do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do."

"Ashley Campbell do you take this man to be you're lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do."

"You may kiss the bride."
