Ryan knocked lightly on the glass door before entering Calleigh's room. She gave him a wave and he entered and pulled up the chair Eric was previously sitting in. "I brought you some light reading, I read online that it's beneficial for those who have had brain surgery. Then again I read that on wikipedia so who really knows… BUT I don't think you ever really got to finish this up" Ryan explained nervously as he handed her the gun magazine she had been looking at about a week ago when they had initially started the case. Calleigh chuckled lightly and took the booklet from his hands and looked at the cover. The first time she looked at it in the break room at the lab came rushing back to her as vivid as the day itself. Calleigh scrunched her eyebrows for a moment. "Something wrong? I swore this was the same one" Ryan said with a laugh, thinking that Calleigh wasn't happy with the magazine he had brought her.

"Why am I just now remembering this case…" Calleigh said as she looked at Ryan with confusion. Ryan didn't exactly know what to say to her. He didn't honestly have an answer. "The two girls and the parents… I remember this now" She started with a small smile on her face. "Where is the case? You have to have it on you, You ALWAYS carry the cases with you incase you think of something" Calleigh prodded. Ryan looked at her strangely for a moment. Leave it to Calleigh to regain memory within the day of getting surgery. Calleigh shoved her hand forward gesturing for the file she was dying to get her hands on. Getting memory back was the most empowering feeling and she didn't want to stop. She hated the way Eric and Horatio looked at her when she said she didn't know what they were talking about. She hated it. And now that she was starting to remember there was going to be no stopping her.

Ryan handed her the updated version of the file and Calleigh rapidly began flipping through the pages. Skipping over anything that wasn't a picture. She finally got to the family records and saw Daisy. Calleigh stopped for a moment and ran a finger over her face. "She was in the car… is she-" Calleigh started.

"Yes, she came out perfectly fine miraculously. With the amount of damage done to the care and with how delicate she is as a child it doesn't really make sense" Ryan explained. Calleigh nodded. She didn't remember that part, she just knew she was in the car with her. She continued flipping until she saw the photos of scorched and decomposed husband. She flashed back to finding him herself. She squinted her face for a moment, it was almost as though she could smell what she smelt that day.

"I remember bits and pieces.." Calleigh started as she continued flipping until she got to Bryan. She froze completely. There was his mug shot, along with his DNA, the flipped car in the median. Calleigh just stared in dismay. She did remember. The second she saw his face in the photo she instantly went back to when he turned and face the gun at her. Seeing her life flashing before her eyes for a quick moment. Ryan slowly removed the file off her lap.

"Maybe we continue this on another day" Ryan said calmly. Calleigh turned her head to look at him and he saw the glimmer in her eye that he only saw when she was about to bust a perp.

"He is here, and I remember what he did" She said with a completely straight face. Ryan nodded.

"I'll call our lawyer" Ryan said simply as he got up and began dialing while heading out the door to her room.

The lawyer stopped by later that day and got as much information out of Calleigh as he could. Any detail she remembered from that day and from the case in general. He needed it to match up to what statements were received from Eric and Horatio the day of the incident. Most importantly though, to make sure it matched what Calleigh initially said on that day. Natalia stopped by a few hours later for her shift. Calleigh stayed up for a little while and they chatted, it was mostly uneventful since the rest of the time Calleigh was sleeping. Things went similar to that for the next two day. Rotating in personnel from the lab, small talk, laughs. But still no word on Bryan and what his condition was.

Eric took his typical position in the chair next to Calleigh's bed. "I hear you get to have that bandage off today!" Eric said with a smile, knowing it was something she was looking forward to. Calleigh's incision was fairly small so it didn't seem necessary to keep it on now that the swelling was down and her stitches were holding. Calleigh smiled.

"It's about time, I finally get to see the damage" Calleigh said while gently patting where the bandage was. Alexx and the nurses must have reassured her a thousand times that the hair they shaved was a small amount and it was in the back, easily covered by more of her hair. Eric rolled his eyes.

"You won't even notice" He said as he pushed her fly away hairs behind her ear. Things had been calm again. Luckily, they hadn't heard much from Vega, or really any update on the case at all. He knew soon enough things would blow up again, but it was nice having this time, while it lasted. And just as quickly as the thought crossed his mind, it was gone with the sound of a knock on the glass. Natalia peeped her head into the room and offered a tight smile.

"Bryan is conscious.. The hearing is scheduled for a week from now" Natalia said with a bland tone. Eric raised his eyebrows, waiting for the other shoe to drop. "We still haven't heard from Rose, and Bryan has been discharged…" She finished.

OKAY GUYS! I know this is was short and you waited a long time for it and I'm really sorry. I know that was super lame of me. It's finals week and I am working super hard on getting everything done on time so I can graduate this summer! Longer and better chapter to come I promise.
