| Thomas was talking with other detective when he saw Lindsay walk past him, he knew of what she had been through five months before, he finished his conversation, then went to find Lindsay, he ended up finding her on the roof, "Lindsay?" he said to her in a gentle tone as he walked up to were she stood | |

| When i read the quote in the photo frame that Stella sent me I needed to get some fresh air.. Everything just flashed in front of my eyes.. And i walked away to to roof, into the fresh air. Not much later I heard someone calling out for me. I turned around and saw Thomas walking up to me.
"Oh, Hey Thomas" I said, giving him the best smile i could pull off. | |

| Thomas saw the smile on Lindsay's face, but at the same time he knew that something had to have been on her mind, "Something troubling you?" he asked as he stood next to her | |

| He asked me if something was troubling me... And he was right.. It was just that.. that quote.. the memory.. It just all flashed back for a moment.
"Stella sent me a letter.." I started off.. | |

| Thomas listened to her as she spoke, "What was the letter about?" he asked, remembering that Stella was now the head of the New Orleans crime lab | |

| He asked me what the letter was about.. so I tried to explain it at least a bit..
"She told me she misses everybody, and that it's still all a bit different there.. She told me she was proud of me, by what I did..." And with that I let out a soft sigh. | |

| Thomas nodded as he listened to what Lindsay said, "The shooting?" he asked gently after she sighed, figuring that was what was eating at her, Thomas knew what she was going through, but he was not going push it if Lindsay didn't want to talk about it | |

| He knew what i was talking about.. okay maybe kinda obvious that he knew it..
"Yeah the shooting.. It just took me right back to that moment again.. Just as when Mac put that medal around my neck.." I told him honest. I just pushed it all to the side, which made the little things that reminded me of it, even harder. | |

| Thomas nodded in reply, he knew what Lindsay was going through, "Lindsay, with all honesty: I know what your going through." he replied, honesty in his voice as he said that to her, remembering when he was in Egypt as a private in Royal Irish Regiment | |

| Thomas told me he knew what I was going through..
"You do?" I said looking up at him, a bit surprised.. "What happened?" I asked him. I actually never heard a story from him like this.. | |

| I sighed, then told her, "1992, I had just entered the Royal Irish Regiment when we were sent to Egypt to help their government defend against Libyan incursions. Three weeks after we arrived, my platoon was on patrol at the border with an Egyptian Army contingent when we got ambushed. Several minutes in, our flank was turned and the Egyptians started to fall back. My commander had me and five other men go over and assist. As we made our way over, several Libyans jumped us. I was knocked down when Pvt. Neson turned to fire on them. Right when I looked up, a Libyan solder was on top of me. I reached for my sidearm and raised it at the lad and the next thing I knew, he stumbled back and collapsed dead. After he fell back, I shook it off and continued to fight. When it was over, I was told that I had emptied my clip into the solder that attacked me. When we got back to camp, it hit me what had happened. I crashed hard after that." I said to Lindsay from memory | |

| I listened carefully to the story that Thomas was telling me.. I never knew he had been true this.. all the time..
"I'm really sorry to hear that" I said, laying my hand on his shoulder. I thought it was amazing that he told me. Sometimes it was good to just only say it, share it with someone, and he just did. "How did you get over it?" I asked him then.. | |

| I looked at her hand after she placed it on my shoulder, then back at her, "My faith, focusing on hobbies when I was not filling military work and talking to people." I replied, "The main thing that helped was telling myself that I would get better." I added, "You will get better Lindsay. You will come to terms with what happened and get better." I told her gently | |

| "The main thing that helped me Lindsay was talking to people." Thomas added, "I learned very quickly that I could not keep it all in." | |

| I smiled at Thomas, and took in what he said. He was right, talking to people would help.. they could just listen to you.. and just say the right thing to make you feel better.. i knew i would come through this, but it just needed time.. it needed time to be forgotten, to get past it.. to leave it behind me..
"Thank you, Thomas. I really appreciate that, and thank you for telling me. I think you're right, you're a great man" I told him honest. | |

| I nodded again, I could see it in her eyes that she wanted to talk about it, but that it was going to take time, "Thank you lass" I replied, "When your ready to talk about it, I'm willing to listen." I said to her in a supportive tone, letting her know that I had her back | |

| a few days later, Thomas was in the crime lab walking to his office, as he did, he got to thinking of the conversation he had with Lindsay, he hoped that she was okay and if she remembered the offer that he made to her about talking what she had been through | |

| I sat in my office thinking back at what had all happened these last months. There was one thing i clearly remembered though, Shane Casey. I also remembered the conversation I had about it later with Thomas, that had really helped. | |
