Natalia was sitting at her desk when Ryan hesitantly walked in. He said he had to tell her something. It didn't look good. He looked upset. "Okay..Here have a seat." She kept her eyes on the desk the whole time. She didn't dare look up. She was in a way scared of Ryan. Or atleast what Ryan would say. He sat down an explained that she was going to work in the field. "Oh, really. Well thats good. I mean, I've been wanting to do this for a long time." She nervously smiled and figeded with the papers on her desk. Ryan told her they needed to leave soon so she had to get ready. She said she just needed a few mintues, while he got up to get himself ready. That was good Natalia. Make him feel sorry for you. He has to give in at some point. She smiled to herself as she stepped outside the lab.
 
As Ryan and Boa exit the lab Cooper comes running up to them," hey guys H wanted me to give you this." He hands Ryan a paper," what is this?" Cooper scratches his head," it's an address to a crime scene. There was another gang shooting about ten minutes ago, same suspects as the one earlier. H sent Calleigh to the other scene with Trip and he wants you guys at this one." Ryan glances at Boa out of the corner of his eye, then back to Cooper," wonderful, thanks a lot." Cooper shrugs," sorry man, I'm just the messanger." Ryan has mixed emotions, part of him is happy that he didn't have to be around Calleigh all day listenting to her talk about HIM, but then again he was worried about her and missed her. On top of that he was now stuck with Boa. He not only felt bad for what happened earlier with them, but now he's stuck with someone with no experience, someone that doesn't have a clue what to do at a crime scene. He thinks to himself," I need a vacation."
 
Natalia was somewhat happy when she found out she didnt have to work with Calleigh. She gets Ryan all to herself. "So, do we drive together? Cause I could drive myself its no problem I dri-.." She got cut off by Ryan. She was rambling. Ryan offered her a ride and she accepted. They both got into the car and sat in silence. Pleasee let this be a short car ride. They didn't just sit there in silence, but in an akward silence. Natalia couldn't take it anymore. The radio wasn't even on. "Do you mind if i turn on the radio?" "No" he told her. We might not be talking but alteast it isn't dead silence.

20 minutes later Natalia was stepping out of the car at the crime scene. "Okay...Now what?" She asked, completely lost. They were at an alley. Ryan told her not to touch anything, and to put gloves on. She followed his intructions. "Oh my...Ryan, I think im going to be sick." She said, staring at 2 dead bodies. They were both shot twice to the head, laying in a blood pool. Ryan told her it was ok but she begged to differ. Of course she didn't say that. If she had it her way she would have screamed and ran all the way home.
 
In the car the silence was almost too much for him to handle. It was so quiet his thoughts were too clear in his head, his thoughts of Calleigh. But then Boa asks to turn on the radio and he tells her yes thinking it would distract his mind. But then a love song comes on, a love song that reminds him of......Calleigh. He pushes his foot down on the gas pedal trying to get to the scene as fast as possible.

He gives her some simple instructions to follow and they walk towards the bodies. They come up on 2 vics with gunshot wounds to the head, blood surrounding their bodies. Boa takes one look at them and tells him she’s going to be sick. He rolls his eyes,” you’re going to be fine, it’s only blood.” She shakes her head no with a look like she’s about to freak out. He raises his brow,” you’re not going to be able to handle this are you?” He has a look of disappointment on his face.
 
"N-no, I can handle it...Its just...its disturbing." She sighed. "Yeah it's disurbing," he said back with a hint of sarcasm. "Just tell me what to do and i'll do it. I'll be fine." He told her to check to see if there was any defensive wounds or hairs on the body. "O-Okay..." She stepped toward the body and bent down. She didn't find anything, but that wasn't surprising. The victims probably didn't really see it coming. "Nothing." She looked up. "Ryan, where are you? Oh my God!" She started panicking. He came running around the corner asking what was wrong. "Oh thank goodness. I looked up and you weren't there. I mean, uhh i thought you were hurt?" She immediatly regreted saying that. She sounded like an idiot. She smiled nervously, "But everything is..fine. What else do you need me to do?"
 
He tells her to check the bodies for evidence. He stands by watching her for a few minutes to make sure she doesn't throw up. He's done enough for everyone today. Even though he sees she's terrified of what she has to do he feels she'll be able to handle it. His mind kicks into search mode and he looks around trying to figure out the direction the bullets came from. He walks off around the corner to look for shell casings. He's only gone for a few minutes when he hears her calling out his name in a panic. He runs back to her seeing the fear in her eyes," what is wrong?" She's tells him she thought he was hurt and he almost laughs. “Yes everything is fine. Now if you’re sure your ok, then I need you to just stay with the bodies while I looked around. Don’t let them leave.”
 
She stands there waiting for a reply only to here him laugh and tell her not to let the bodies get away. "Oh very funny Mr. Wolfe," she smirked. "I'm a very good entertainer. They aren't going anywhere." He smiled and rolled his eyes, walking around the corner again. Huh, he thinks I would let the bodies leave..Very funny. She rolled her eyes. It seemed like she was waiting forever. Okay...this is getting boringgg...I wonder if my make-up is okay! She pulled out a small mirror from her pants. I'm definatly in need of some lip glo- She was interupted by a scrawny man who came from around the corner on her right. He was holding a gun. "What are you doing here!" He shouted.. "I-i im just-" She was interupted once again by Ryan running around the corner on her left with his gun drawn telling her to get back.
 
Ryan rushes around searching for evidence but makes sure he is thorough; the OCD in him wouldn’t have it any other way. As he starts to come around the corner he spots a man standing in front of Boa with a gun in his hand. Ryan’s mind freezes at first,” what the hell.” He takes a deep breath and takes off running towards the man yelling,” CSI OFFICER, PUT YOUR WEAPON DOWN AND YOUR HANDS UP NOW.” The man quickly drops the weapon and throws his hands up in the air without question. Ryan moves to him quickly kicking his gun away,” get down on your knees now.” The man goes down as fast as possible. Ryan looks at her,” are you ok Natalia?” Her lips quiver and all she can say is,” yes.” Ryan looks at the guy,” what is your problem? Why did you come after her with a gun?” The man looks up at him,” I’m sorry officer I didn’t know what she was doing here. I heard the gun shots earlier and it scared me. I’m on my way to work and I have to walk this way. I carry this gun for protection, that’s it. This is just a mistake I wasn’t going to hurt no one.” Ryan looks at her,” what did he say to you?” She tells him that the man asked her if she killed the men and he was just about to put his gun down when he came at him. Ryan turns around seeing a few patrol officers come running down for backup. He tells them what happened and turns the guy over to them. He looks up and sees a coroner coming down the alley, finally. But it’s not Alexx, where is Alexx he wonders. After wrapping up everything he finds Boa sitting on a curb trying to collect herself. He’s upset that she let her guard down and allowed someone to get to her, but then he realizes it happens, it happened to him and unfortunately he wasn’t as lucky as she was. He goes to her bending down in front of her,” are you ok Natalia?”
 
Everything happened so fast. In one second she was checking her make-up and the other- some guy had a gun pointed to her face. She didn't even realize Ryan came up to her. He was saying her name. "What? Oh sorry. Ye-yeah im fine.. But I wouldn't be if you didn't come." She stared into Ryans eyes. She could look at him again. "Thank you Ryan, really." With that he helped her up and offered her a ride home. Natalia wanted to stay though. Ryan told her to follow him and once again, not to touch anything. They walked under the yellow and black crime scene tape and around the corner. Natalia was walking behind Ryan when an officer tapped her on the back. She was startled and grabbed onto Ryan's arm. "Oh my God, officer you scared me!" "Sorry Ma'am, but you were the only person with the guy and the dead bodies. He didn't touch them in any way did he?" "No he didn't." She turned back to Ryan noticed she still hadn't let go of Ryan's arm.
 
She said she was fine but he knew better, she was still trembling. She said she wanted to stay and he understood that she had to, no matter what. If she failed today H wouldn’t give her another chance and she knew it. In that moment his thoughts of her were good ones. She wasn’t giving up, she was out to prove herself worthy. They crossed under the crime scene tape and an officer taps her on back startling her and she grabs his arm. After she is done talking to the officer she looks at Ryan realizing she still has hold of his arm. He looks down at her hand, her fingers wrapped around his arm,” um are you ok?” She nods yes and he grabs her by the arm leading her away from everyone. “Ok I understand you’re scared, this is your first time out, but you have to be more professional here. Your acting like a little school girl. You have to pull yourself together or I’m taking you home.” She starts to say something and he cuts her off,” to be honest with you I don’t think you’re cut out for this. Maybe you should just stick to your lab.” He hated being so harsh, but he had to see if she was ready. How would she react to those words?
 
Eric checked his watch with a sigh and pulled his cell phone out of his pocket. Wolfe should have been back an hour ago. They really needed to go over these notes before their court appearance tommorow. He picked up, "Wolfe." Cleary he hadn't remembered their arrangement. 'Wolfe where the hell are you? Get back to the lab now!"
 
Natalia was starring at her arm attatched onto his, when he suddenly takes her arm and pulls her away. He tells her she was acting immature, and that she wasn't cut out for the job. She was having a hard time but could you blame her? She stared at him for a long time before she really got angry. "I can't believe you! I just had some guy point a gun in my face and I thought I was dead on my first time in the field! Of course i'm going to act like I can't do the job! I've wanted this job for such a long time, and when I finally get to do it, you say that i'm not 'cut out' for it? You know what, don't worry about having to drive me home. I'll get a cab." She stormed off, her eyes watering, leaving Ryan speachless. She was so hurt that he thought that. She would have been fine but she didn't feel like working around him then. Maybe I should go home now. Maybe I really can't do this job. She brushed away a tear as it fell from her eyes.
 
With his mouth hanging wide open Ryan listens to her lash out at him. Once she’s done she takes off looking for a cab. He puts his head down feeling terrible for telling her how he felt, but he still believed she needed to hear it, for her own good and everyone else’s. But then she said she had wanted this for so long, like it was her dream, a similar dream he had when he was just a patrol officer. He knows the feeling of people saying the same thing to him. He knows he can’t let her go. He doesn’t want her failure to be on his hands. He runs after her not even thinking of what to say, he just knew he had to stop her. “Natalia stop.” She doesn’t even slow down. He runs up pass her getting in front of her,” would you stop? I’m sorry for what I said, but I can’t help that’s how I feel.” He looks into her tear filled eyes seeing her pain and she looks at him like,” nice apology.”
 
She kept running until Ryan blocked her path. He said he was sorry. He said he was sorry but he still thinks she can't do the job. "Well I'm sorry thats how you feel too. You think thats going to make everything better? Your sorry but to you I still suck? I bet when you first came to the job you made mistakes. Who was your tutor? Calleigh? I bet she said you were doing great." She felt the tears coming when she said that. She was right, Calleigh was always nice to him, and he was always nice back. She knew if she was Calleigh and she made the same mistakes he wouldn't have said what he said. "If i'm wrong, then im sorry she treated you like that. No one deserves to be treated like that. Not even you." She was still walking and Ryan was walking backwards infront of her. He tried to keep her in one place but she didn't want to stay with him. When she tried to pass him he grabbed her, and told her to stay.
 
Now she was really going off on him and he deserved it. She wouldn’t stop walking as she let him have it. She brought up Calleigh making him think back to his start as a csi. Calleigh was pretty supportive, but always let him know when he was doing something wrong. That was her job as a trainer and this was his job as her trainer. He really didn’t want her to just give up, he wanted her to just tell him he was wrong and she could handle the job, but she didn’t.

She just kept walking away from him. Finally he grabs her,” stop please. I’m sorry for saying what I said, I didn’t mean to hurt you. I didn’t say it because I want you to just give up either; I said it because I want you to prove me wrong. You shouldn’t care what I think, if you know you can do this then prove me wrong.” He looks deep into her eyes,” don’t walk away from this or you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.”
