CSI Level One
This is a story I'm in the process of writing, and I'd love some opinions on it. This is based on Season 6, so definately a lot of spoilers. I'm writing this from all three characters' POVs - Horatio Caine/John Harmon's, Julie Eberly's & Kyle Harmon's. Hopefully y'all will be able to tell who's talking.
If I've got Kyle's birthdate wrong... sorry. :lol:

October 1990
He stood out among all the patients I was seeing that day. I could've sworn he was some kind of James Bond, minus the red hair and American accent. He sat in the lobby, patiently waiting with his hands drumming on the side table. The sun shining through the glass window behind him brightened his face, and boy did he look handsome. He looked up occasionally, catching my gaze and smiling at me. His blue eyes twinkled, and I smiled back shyly.
"Julie?"
I turned around, taking the clipboard from one of the nurses with a nod. My next patient's name was written on the top of the sheet, and I looked around for someone to match the name.
John Walden.
At Glenview Hospital, the people who came to see me were mostly heatstroke-stricken tourists whe weren't used to the Pesecola sun. Whoever John Walden was, he was definately not a tourist. Unless he was quite an unlucky one. According to his file, John had a bullet in his arm, and it needed to be dressed. I was quite confused. Surely somebody with a gunshot wound would be screaming bloody murder by now.
The waiting room was dead quiet.
I held the clipboard to my chest, walking in the room with a smile. The red-headed Bond character looked up, his blue eyes meeting mine.
"John Walden?" I asked.
He nodded, smiling and getting out of his chair. He winced a little, with his good arm held out.
"Dr. Julie Eberly." I greeted, shaking his hand. "I understand you were shot?"
"Just a graze, ma'am." he replied, his voice deep and friendly.
"I'm sorry to hear that. Come with me please? I have an exam room ready."
I let his hand drop and lead the way down the hall, looking back occasionally to be certain he was following. John grinned, his eyes twinkling as he watched me.
"Right here." I directed, opening the door for him. "Go sit on the table and I'll be right with you."
John nodded, pulling off his black jacket. I noticed a small bloodstain forming on the sleeve of his baby-blue dress shirt, and I was concerned.
"Take off your shirt, please?" I asked, not realizing the nature of my words as he thought them to be.
I heard him chuckle amusedly, then saw him take off his shirt to me to examine his wound. I put some pressure on his arm to try and slow the bleeding, reaching for some gauze to cover it.
"You got changed?" I wondered aloud.
"How did you know?" he replied.
I smirked.
"No GSR on your shirt, it's not torn where the bullet hit your flesh, and I can see the fibres in the wound aren't the right color."
I looked at John, grinnnig. He looked satisfied, as if I had just kissed him.
"You're very good, Dr. Eberly." he commented.
"Why thank you." I replied, "It's what I do."
TBC...
