Re: CSI:Miami: RT #5- In God We Trust-All Others Are Suspect
Well, this thread is winding down so I'll post one last chapter on here. - Perhaps two if the time and postage permits. Thank you all for reading, and for those who haven't had the chance to post a review before the eventual locking of this thread, come join us in the next one! - And don't worry about catching up. Take your time.
Anni, I'm happy you liked the chapters! Hee! Carly and Speed sure do seem to be getting a long nicely. Well, they are bonding at least.
calleighspeedle, you're right. Speed is acting out his anger/sadness. - We'll see where that leads.
Choking In Dispair
2 am, Motel Room
Speed: *walks in, closes door*
Carly: *jumps* Whoa.
Speed: Sorry, did I wake you?
Carly: It's okay don't worry about it. Where did you run off to?
Speed: I just rode around.
Carly: I hope it helped.
Speed: *sits in chair* Not really.
Carly: *sits up* I'm sorry.
Speed: Yeah well, you can't do anything about it.
Carly: You want a beer?
Speed: No.
Carly: ...Sleep medication?
Speed: *stares at Carly*
Carly: ...It was a joke.
Speed: I know.
Carly: So what's the big deal? You don't crack a smile anymore?
Speed: I don't really feel up to that.
Carly: Aw. *walks over, sits in chair* That's alright you don't have to pretend to be happy if you aren't.
Speed: Thank you.
Carly: *smiles*
Speed: *stares at Carly*
Carly: Uh...We should both get some rest.
Speed: Yeah.
Carly: You can have the bed.
Speed: No, you can.
Carly: Are you sure?
Speed: Yeah.
Carly: Thanks. *walks over to bed, get under the covers*
Speed: *turns off light*
Carly: *stares at the ceiling* ....Are you asleep yet?
Speed: It's been two seconds.
Carly: I know, but...Well nevermind.
Speed: What?
Carly: Well now I feel bad. You have to sit in the chair all night and I'm in this semi-comfortable bed.
Speed: Don't feel bad. I'm fine.
Carly: Well hot guys shouldn't sit alone in a chair.
Speed: *blinks* ...Okay.
Carly: Sorry, I tend to be weird when I'm tired.
Speed: Well at least you say what you're thinking.
Carly: Why...You don't?
Speed: I think if I did, I'd get in trouble more often than I do.
Carly: You're always saying what you think.
Speed: Not all the time.
Carly: ...What are you thinking right now?
Speed: Oh, we don't need to go down that route.
Carly: Were you thinking about Katie?
Speed: ...I think it's safe to say I wasn't.
Carly: Oh...
Speed: Ramirez. I was thinking about Ramirez.
Carly: Really.
Speed: Yeah.
Carly: Alright well...You keep thinking about him then.
Speed: I will.
Carly: Good.
Speed: Good.
