Still hurt

Mac nodded and they decided to see if they could maybe find anything belonging to Claire

Stella was in the room where Claire had his studio. She loved to paint canvas. She saw clothes that belonged to Claire in the wardrobe. Stella knew that Mac can't throw everything belong to Claire. It was an immense garment bag when she opened it was the wedding gown. Stella had tears in his eyes when he saw her, it was still intact.

-You still have it.

Mac nodded

-She was like an angel that day.

She put the dress in place.

-You find something?

Mac handed her a box of pics

Stella smiled when she saw the other picture.

-We should put them in an album to protect them. She loved so much taking pictures.

Mac agreed

-You see now when I tell you not to get rid of everything.

She smiled gently putting the pictures in an album.

Mac nodded

In the afternoon, Stella wanted to see the wall of remembrance in Coney Island. She could not be at the ceremony, but she had a thought that day.

-I am proud of you is ... there is no word. She also would be proud.

Mac thought about Claire and the loss of their unborn baby

Stella looked at pictures of people who lost lives that day. After she went to Mac giving him a hug to comfort him.

-You want to go see the guys at the lab?

Mac then asked Stella if Claire had ever told her the sex of the baby on 9/11

Stella had a sad smile

-It would have been a boy. She planned something special to tell you.

Mac nodded

Stella knew he would have been as it is with Lily and Isabella if he would have his family life with Claire and his boy.

Mac had no idea that a few days later, there would be something of Claire's found

Stella wasn't back in New Orleans the day after September 11. She was at his loft with photos of the tragic day, maps of the city. She wanted to find the DNA of Claire, she stubborn when she wanted to do something she did.

Mac went to Cozy's and had a drink

Stella had found an abandoned subway station, she was with Don and she was touched by seeing Lindsay and Danny to help her.

-So where we are exactly? ask Don

-Just few blocks from the site. There were lofts here.

There was a metal door blocking the way, Danny had cut the chain and the door was open. Stella turn on his flashlight and pointed inside. Was dark, there was fragments.

-My God, you found another place stella. said Lindsay


-I have to call the lab Stell.

-Don no! It's my investigation!

-Flack is right Stella, he should call the lab to warn them.

Once the lab was aware, journalists had to Current. They talked about it on TV.

Mac left Cozy's after his beer and went to Far Rockaway and just stood and looked out to sea, his missed Claire

Stella was at his loft very late at night, she was exhausted. She'd get his investigation back. After three days she found something. It was late when she came to Mac's apartment.

-Hey...sorry if is late. I....I did some test, so many.

She gave him the wedding ring that belonged to Claire.

Mac wasn't there as he was at FDNY talking to some buddies, he needed to be there right now

Stella was returned to her loft, she spoke with Jason all the evening and went to bed. The next day she called Mac to ask him if she could go see him, she had something for him.

Mac got back to his apartment at 2am and found the missed calls from Stella, he slept until around 11am the next day
