"God fucking damn it! I don't need this right now!" she growls as Rick comes in and looks and sees her clearly upset and near a break down both physically and emotionally.

"All of you have thirty seconds to clear out of this building right now!" Rick growls at them.

They all leave and Christi breaks down

He goes over to her and lifts her up and sits down and sits her in his lap and holds her close.

"They're still alive. They faked their deaths. These past six years have been a lie. My own father didn't tell me anything. I wasted my time investigating an undercover ATF agent and a false death and now my sons grandparents are trying to take him from me again. I can't do this. I can't do this right now." She cries.

"It'll be ok"

She just cries holding onto him. After about an hour he looks over at her and she's cried herself to sleep. He gently picks her up and sets her down on the couch in there to let her sleep. He quietly walks out and closes the door behind him after putting a sign on the door saying 'Do Not Disturb'. Eric walks by and looks at him.

"Is she okay?" Eric asks.

"She had an emotional break down. She's really stressed out right now and just found out some news that just upset her even more and not to mention Speedle's parents are trying to take Christopher from her again apparently."

"Damn" Eric said

Stetler nodded.

Later that day Eric went home and he went and grabbed himself a beer from the refrigerator.

He goes and turns the game on. He sat back thinking about Christi accepting that date with Stetler. He had loved her for a while now but over the years it turned into love and he didn't want to see her get hurt. He loved her and he would kill to keep her happy and safe.

They had met in high school and they had been best friends since and over the years he had started loving her like a sister and now he was in love with her and wanted to spend the rest of his life with her but he had lost his chance now that she was going on a date with Rick which might turn into more.

Meanwhile

Christi is just holding Chris close to her afraid of losing him to Tim's parents. She looks down and sees that he's asleep and she goes and puts him to bed then she goes and makes herself something to eat. She finishes up and makes herself a quick drink then she goes and sits on the couch and eats her quick ham and grilled cheese sandwich. When someone knocked on the door and she gets up and answers the door and finds Rick there.

"Hey." She says.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" he asks.

"Okay, I guess." She says as she lets him.

He nods and grasps her face gently in-between his hands and lifts her head a bit and he leans down and kisses her since he's six foot three inches and she's five foot three inches. She wraps her arms around his neck as he moves his arms to around her waist. He gently pulls her closer and she moves one of hands into his hair.

He pulls back just enough to ask, "Bedroom?"

"Sure"

"Which way?" he asks.

"Upstairs and to the left"

He nods and picks her up making her giggle and he kisses her again and walks to her bedroom and he kicks the door closed and sets her down and locks the door then he leans down and kisses her again while pulling her MDPD shirt over her head and tosses it to the side as she works on getting his jacket off along with his button down shirt.

"I need you" she said

He nods and kisses her again and finishes stripping her then she stripped him and he picked her up again and carried her over to the bed and laid her down then climbed on top of her and kissed her and gently pushed into her not sure of how long it had been since the last time she been intimate.

"I'm ok"

He nods and kisses her and starts to gently thrust not wanting to hurt her.

She moans and holds onto him

He goes slightly harder and faster not wanting to hurt her.

Her moans get louder

After a while they both cum and he collapses next to her both breathing heavily. He lies on his back and she snuggles into his side and kisses his cheek.

"I needed that. Thank you."

"No problem"

She yawns and lays her head on his shoulder and slips her arm around his waist and falls asleep on him.

He starts falling asleep when someone knocks on her front door it wakes him up and he gently gets up and lays her down and gets his boxers and dress pants on quickly along with his white under shirt and gets the door before it could wake her up.

He opens the door and sees Horatio standing there in his normal stance. Standing slightly sideways with his hands on his hips.
