(She's off the crutches!! xD)
Ash was still a little slow because of the little spurts of pain in her knee, but she was back! She had been working non-stop for the past six hours because she felt so guilty being home for all that time. Her docter told her not to push it, but how could she not? She had so much work to do.
She found herself rather hungry, and she wondered to the staff lounge. She got a bag of chips from the vending machine and sat down on the soft couch that she loved. She smiled to the people that walked in and out.
When Eric came in, however, she jumped off the couch and hugged him tightly.

"Oh, uhm... Hi Ashley!" Eric was a bit surprised when Ashley suddenly hugged him. It reminded him of when Ryan had tried to hug him as well. "I see you're doing better," he commented. Ok, now how many hugs has then been since the past two days? He thought to himself. Two? Three? He almost laughed to himself, but he hugged back, mostly because Ryan had his emotional burst when he didn't hug him back so he wasn't too keen on standing still.

Ash let go and grinned at him."A little slower than usual, but yep!" she said, her eyes shining brightly. She beckoned him to follow her to the couch. She sat down and she smiled."So, what's up?" she asked.

Eric shrugged as he walked over to sit down on the break room couch beside her. "Nothing really," he sighed with a frown. "Just finishing up a case file on a recent case. Suicide." He sounded bored. Because he was. Case files were the most boring part of the entire job. Not that the job was boring, until you get to the files, paperwork, and reports that is. "What have you been working on?" He asked, changing the subject around...

Ash nodded, hating having to do the suicides the most. You could tell she was working on it when she was wearing all black and she never smiled. It just made her depressed to even think that someone could take their own life."Homicide, not exactly major," she said, shrugging. It didn't involve much...

Eric nodded. "You know this gap is going to end bad," he murmured. Every time they had a homicide break, or very few cases to try and solve, by the end of it there was going to be a ton. It always happened. "Well, at least you didn't miss much," he added with a shrug. "It's been slow like this ever since that little skirmish awhile ago." And the lab still looks terrible, he thought. Parts of it was still lying in shambles, although the workers had begun to work on it on the day of the wreck...

Ash sighed and leaned back into the couch. She thought of Ryan and him, hoping that they would once again get through the next major 'event' without getting hurt again. She couldn't deal with that if they did get injured. She moved a little closer to him, hger mind going faster and faster. Her mind was going between the unexpected and the safe move. She moved a little closer to him and just smiled. she was scared, thinking that he would move away from her. She looked back down, fear coming back.

Eric noticed Ashley moving closer, but he said or did nothing about it. He really didn't mind. For awhile, everything was quiet. Time to break the silence, he thought. I just don't know what to say. "Have you been having any trouble with the detectives?" He asked finally. If she worked on a homicide case, she might have run into a few of the annoying touchy ones once or twice. Some detectives just didn't know how to act civil. That's what he thought, anyways. A few were Ok, but the others were just a bunch of proud little cops thinking they were better than everyone else...

(Random name... lol)
Ash rolled her eyes and nodded."Yeah, a couple of them. They love to say what happened before they even looked at the scene," she said, a frown on her face. "Thomas Crouch and Craig Wilson; the top dectectives in the idiot department," she groaned. she still had to deal with them, too. She looked at him finally, and fought the urge to put her head on his shoulder. She was scared that he didn't like her...
She looked bac down. Taking a deep breath, she moved a little bit closer and laid her head on his shoulder.

Eric flashed her a look but he didn't protest. To his surprise, he didn't really mind. He nearly enjoyed the moment. He laughed as he realized what she just said. "So no Veralusina?" He finally remembered the snappy detective's last name... But he forgot her first name. He couldn't understand how detectives were so annoying! He was glad he became a CSI. He didn't have to work with any detectives...

Ash moved back to her original positio, her face red with embarresment. She shrugged."Nope, Anya wasn't anywhere to be found. That makes it a little better, I guess. I get tired quickly of people swearing at me all the time," she said, her tone annoyed.

Eric laughed. "Yeah. I understand that feeling," he replied. Ashley looked a bit embarrassed, but now she just sounded annoyed. Can't imagine why, he thought to himself. Anyone would be annoyed just speaking with that detective. For awhile there was silence. Then- "Have you spoken to H? I haven't seen him for awhile. I always seem to end up working on a different case then him. I'm always with Mr-too-many-coffees-every-morning Wolfe," he laughed, meaning it in a funny and good way.

Ash grinned at his description of Ryan."Yup, that's Ryan for ya. Although it isn't coffee that gets him like that," she said with a small smile.She thought about it, and she shook her head slowly."No, I really haven't talked to Horatio in a while," she said.

Eric shrugged. "Oh well. I'm just wondering what he's been doing for the past week or so. He seems to be distracted by that Black Medallion Case," he murmured with a frown. It was true, though, that Horatio had been distracted lately, and he still didn't know why. And Ryan was pretty much hyper everywhere except when he was working on a case or doing some stuff in the lab. Which was good. He couldn't count how many hugs Ryan had given him in the past week, either. "Everything's been a little crazy, and secretive," he added.

Ash shrugged. She had actually seen the note, although he nor Horatio knew. She sighed and nodded."Yeah... I don't blame him though... It's...I think it'll end up major," she said quietly, finally letting out her worries to one person she trusted...well, one of two. She lowered her gaze from him, which was getting harder everytime she saw him. She finally looked up at him, hoping to see some type of reaction.
