CSI Level Three
When Catherine grabbed his arm and forced him to look at her, he could see the anger in her eyes. Just now he realized the effect his words had on her. "...Where the HELL do you come off? You are right about ONE DAMN thing. I should have told you”
The expression on her face changed from one second to the other, the anger was gone and now she looked so weak and fragile. It almost broke his heart to see her like this. Nick wanted to say something but before he could even open his mouth she spoke again. “But, Don’t you DARE set me up to FAIL you! I'm human...I'm going to do things wrong. I'm going to make you angry, but damn it...DON'T DOUBT the person I am," Although she turned away from him, Nick could see that Catherine started to cry.
She wanted to leave but he put his hand on her shoulder. Now it was his turn to force HER to look at HIM. "You see? You're doing it again Catherine! Everytime you get emotional you turn away. You never admit anyone to see your feelings. I know I hurt you with what I said and I never intended it to sound so harsh. I'm really sorry for that. I would never doubt the person you are, you are a wonderful person...It's just that I felt so angry and disappointed that you hadn't confided in me...I couldn't do anything about it."
He took a step toward her and now his face was so close to hers that their noses almost touched and he could feel her breath on his skin. "You don't always have to be the strong woman that can do everything on her own. Maybe you think it's a sign of weakness to cry infront of others...it is not! We know that you have feelings, everybody does. You have friends who want to help you and you have....you have me. I want you to share your feelings with me. I know it is a difficult time for you right now, for me too. But I'm always there for you, you know that and whenever you need anything I'll be here in a second.” He put a finger under her chin and raised her head so he could look into her beautiful deep blue, now watery eyes. “Please promise me that you will never keep anything so important from me. Don't let anything like that ever get between us again...."
