Everything Changes Chapter 1 The beginning of a new week arrived and the team had just solved another case. While the rest of the team relaxed for a while and cleared up for the night shift, Calleigh had seemed distant and wasn’t quite herself. Eric pulled her to the side. “Calleigh, is everything okay with you? You seem a little distant today.” Eric asked with a sympathetic look. Calleigh looked into his caring brown eyes and sighed softly. “I’m okay, thank you Eric. Just a little headache, that’s all.” Eric placed a gentle hand on her shoulder and frowned slightly, but he accepted that she was okay. “Okay, if you need anything, give me a call.” Eric said warmly as he moved his hand from her shoulder to her upper arm, feeling the fabric of her cardigan. Calleigh smiled softly. “Thank you, Eric.” He smiled back at her as he turned to walk to his locker and picked up his things with a silent sigh. ‘Why did we ever break up?’ Eric thought to himself as he swallowed and looked into his locker. He glanced around when he heard the door open and close and realised Calleigh had just left. ‘She didn’t even say bye.’ Eric thought to himself as he lightly frowned. ‘Calleigh always say’s bye.’ He thought to himself. Ryan then strolled in to the locker room to pick a few of his things up with an easy smile. “Hey, is there something wrong with Calleigh? She doesn’t seem herself.” Ryan asked concerned about his colleague and friend as he pulled a can of deodorant from his locker and applied a little. “I just spoke with her, she said she just had a headache.” Eric turned to look at Ryan as he put a few things back in his locker. “Fair enough, she was in early today; I guess she’s just a little tired. You want to come out for a beer tonight?’ Ryan asked casually leaning against his locker after putting the deodorant away. “Sure, let me get my things together. Have you asked Frank, I’m sure he’ll join.” Eric closed his locker and turned to Ryan. They headed toward the door just as Frank walked in. “Hey, you guys wanna’ come out for a beer?” Frank asked as he stood in the doorway, leaning against the frame. “We were about to ask you the same thing.” Eric replied as they headed out of the locker room and stood by the door just as Calleigh stormed past them in a hurry, she didn’t seem too happy. She didn’t even acknowledge the three of them standing there. All 3 frowned at her as she boarded the lift and crossed her arms as she stood strong, clearly very upset and annoyed about something. “Woah! Must be that time of the month.” Ryan sniggered after the lift doors closed. “Ryan!” Eric snapped as Frank chuckled in agreement. “Well, there’s definitely something getting her worked up! She’s rarely that stroppy.” Ryan said as he raised his hands in submission with an innocent looking expression. Eric just glared at him. “Right, are we going for this beer or what?” Frank quickly said to change the subject. “We sure are” Eric calmly said, still looking slightly concerned and a little annoyed with Ryan. They made their way over to the lift. Horatio walked by with his head buried in a case file. “Horatio!” Frank called and then watched Horatio lift his head from the file as he slowed. “You wanna’ join us for a drink?” Frank questioned as he turned to face Horatio. “Thank you but I have some paperwork to complete.” Horatio replied. They gave him a nod and then watched him look back down to the file as he carried on walking as the three men boarded the lift. They jumped into their cars and headed home and agreed to meet at 8 at a local bar. Meanwhile, Calleigh was on her way home when her phone rang. She left it as she was driving and if it was important, they would leave a message. It rang again and she sighed, she picked it up and looked at the caller ID, it was her boyfriend, Jay. She answered. “Jay–” “Where the hell are you!?” Jay’s loud, angry voice cut Calleigh off. “I’m on my way home now! I told you 10 minutes ago!” Calleigh said frustrated as she frowned at the road ahead. “You should be here by now! What have you been doing?” “I’ll be there in 2 minutes, I’ll see you then!” She hung up on him, equally as frustrated as he was. She arrived at her place and got out of her car and walked up to her door with her key in her hand. The door opened and a tall well-built man stood there, with a gloomy expression. “What on Earth have you been doing!?” He raised his voice. Calleigh pushed past him. “I’ve been at work! Where else would I have been?” Calleigh questioned as she dropped her bag to the table in the kitchen. “You finished work ages ago! You’re late!” He responded raising his voice louder as his expression grew fiercer. ‘Why the hell am I with this jackass anyway?!’ Calleigh thought to herself as she pressed her lips into a hard line. “I’m never home when I technically finish work! You know that! I always have something to finish up or something! And don’t you raise your voice at me, Jay!” She said getting more frustrated as she placed her hands on the cold table. “I will raise my voice to you whenever I like Calleigh!! You’ve not been at work have you! Don’t lie to me!” He yelled as he stood the opposite side of the table. “I’ve been at work, Jay! I’ve been at work all day and I certainly don’t need this from you right now!” She raised her voice slightly as she glared at him. “Yeah right, Calleigh! I know you’ve been to see your ‘boyfriend’! Who is he?” His face beginning to flush bright red as he hit the table and then walked around the table. “I’ve been at work!! I’m not seeing anyone!” Calleigh snapped, now going slightly red in the face herself as she stood up straight and stood strong. “Who is he?!” Jay screamed, backing Calleigh into the corner as he tensed his muscles. “Jay, back off now!” Calleigh raised her voice, warning him dangerously lowly. “WHO IS HE?” Jay screamed again as Calleigh’s ass made contact with the counter behind her. “Jay! Back off now!” Calleigh shouted at him as she raised her arms and pushed him back but Jay grabbed one of her arms. “Get off me now, Jay!” Calleigh grew angry as she tried to pushed him away. “Not until you tell me who he is!” Jay yelled. “I’m not seeing anyone! Now back off or I’ll arrest you!” Calleigh warned as she pushed him forcefully. “How dare you push me! Get off you bitch!” He yelled and then slapped Calleigh across the face. She looked down, dropping her head, holding her cheek as Jay backed off slowly. “Get out, NOW!” She screamed at him. His eyes went wide, he had realised what he had done, he let go of her arm and slowly backed off more as he took a deep breath. “GET OUT!” Calleigh screamed at him. “Fine you crazy bitch!” He looked her in the eye. “Don’t you EVER come back here or I’ll have you arrested.” She said through gritted teeth trying to contain her anger. Jay slammed the front door shut after him. Calleigh took a deep breath to try and calm herself. It didn’t work, the more she thought about it, the more she grew angry. She was frustrated because she hadn’t thrown him out sooner. ‘What the FUCK was I thinking? Why did I not throw him out sooner! He’s a fucking arsehole, you’ve known that a long time!’ She thought, growing even angrier with herself. It was the first time he had raised a hand to her and it sure as hell was going to be the last. She broke down and sat on her kitchen floor, she was unsure what to do with herself. At the bar, the three men had met and Eric brought a round of beers. They sat and discussed the last case casually but the subject quickly changed on to Calleigh. “Hey, don’t you think Calleigh has been acting a little strange lately, she seems a little distracted.” Ryan casually began the conversation before he picked up the cool pint and took a few sips. “Not really, then again, I don’t often work many cases with her.” Frank said looking to Eric for his opinion. “I had asked her a few times if she was okay, she always said she was so I just left it at that. If she wanted to talk about something, I’m sure she would have said something.” Eric said and sipped his beer. “Yeah, perhaps she’s just tired; she’s not had a break from work in months.” Ryan said as he brought the beer back up to his lips. A slim woman walked past them and their eyes all simultaneously met with her ass as her hips swayed. “Yeah…” Frank said staring. They all then realised they were staring so stopped. “Anyway, what are you guys up to Saturday?” The conversation carried on while they discussed various things. They got a few more rounds in. Back at Calleigh’s, she took at hot shower to try and calm herself, but it didn’t seem to work. She was so stressed from work, the cases were really grinding at her and then there was her pig of a ex-boyfriend. She then thought about her drunken father, it upset her even more. She broke down in the shower too, she had to get out and then changed into her lazy clothes. She walked into the kitchen and took a few shots of vodka. ‘Well, if it works for him, then it should work for me’ she thought, hoping it would calm her down slightly. She was wrong, it only exacerbated her emotions and she was at breaking point, she could feel herself being pushed over the edge. ‘WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?!” She screamed out, and sunk to the floor with tears streaming down her cheeks, her head pounding and pressure building up in her sinuses. She brought her knees to her chest. The next morning Horatio arrived early at work and began filling out paper work. Eric, Ryan and Frank arrived, shortly after Alexx. There wasn’t a sign of Calleigh yet. “Hey Wolfe, you seen Calleigh yet?” Eric said loudly from across the lab. Ryan looked up and then strolled over to Eric with a file in his hand. “No, not yet. She’s probably just a little late.” Ryan said as he picked up another case file. “Yeah” Eric said with a slightly concerned and confused look on his face. ‘Calleigh is never late, she never has been.’ He thought to himself with a sigh as he looked to what Ryan was looking at. “You want a coffee? I’m just going to make one” Ryan asked as he pulled his head out of the file, then noticed the look on Eric’s face. “Hey, she’s fine, you watch, she’ll be through those doors in a few minutes complaining about traffic. It was horrendous this morning.” Ryan said trying to comfort Eric. Ryan put the files down and then leant on the desk as he awaited Eric’s reply. “Yeah, you’re right and a yes to the coffee.” Eric seemed to relax a little more. Horatio sat in his office when he received a call he answered it. “Caine” “Hey H, it’s Frank, we have a DB, we need you guys here soon please. It’s at 285 Star Island.” “I’ll send them over now, thanks Frank” The call ended and Horatio closed the file that lay open before him. Horatio got up and found Ryan. “Mr Wolfe, I need you and Calleigh to go over to 285 Star Island, we have a DB.” “Calleigh hasn’t turned up yet, H” Ryan replied and Horatio glanced up to him from looking at the corner of the desk. “Well, give her a ring then.” Horatio turned and walked away back to his office. He was still obsessing about the Judge Joseph Ratner case. ‘I’ve missed something, I know I have’ Horatio thought to himself. Ryan rang Calleigh on her cell phone but she didn’t answer.
