Hey there, Everybody! After I had realized that I'm really bad at updating, I decided to give it another shot. :-D So here I am! I hope you'll like this story. I like it personally, at least the idea of it. Please read it and stay with me. And be patient! As I mentioned it, I can't update on a regular basis.

Oh, and I just have to say it: I don't like Jake!!

Chapter 1: Realizations

Calleigh, sitting on the bathroom floor, leant back with a heavy sigh to the side of the bath tube. It was cold but it didn't bother her. When did her life become so complicated?

She felt like a mess. It was as if she had lost her ground and now she would be floating in a space, where nothing could be found but fear and despair, without any hope that her feet could feel solid ground once again.

When did she lose her ground? She couldn't even remember. Maybe when Ryan Wolfe appeared in her life. Or maybe when she began to fall for him. Or was it when she decided to give Jake Berkeley another chance while she was well aware of her having feelings for Ryan? Then again maybe it was when she moved in together with Jake. Who knows this? It didn't matter after all as the result was the same.

She closed her eyes for a second, took a deep breath preparing herself for the cruel reality. Opening her eyes she looked down at the object in her hand. Suddenly tears began to pour from her eyes and a smile appeared on her face. She felt happy but sad at the same time. Suddenly she was full of hope but she felt at loss and afraid. The previous nothingness disappeared but a full fledged chaos took its place.

She was pregnant.

She was going to have a baby and this knowledge made her immensely happy… But she wasn't in love with the father of that child… She was in love with somebody else. However hard she had tried, she couldn't forget the man her heart belonged to. And this made her immensely sad. Nevertheless she was full of hope because she sincerely believed that this was her chance to change her life forever and maybe to fall in love with the man who had given her a family. But in spite of all this she was afraid. Afraid of her future. Could she really love a man and have a family with him who she couldn't trust completely?

She was snapped out of her thoughts by the ringing of the phone. She got up and went to the bedroom with the test still in her hand. She tried to compose herself before she answered the phone.

"Duquesne."

"Calleigh. It's Horatio."

"Hey, H. What's up?"

"I'd like to ask you to go to Dallas."

"Dallas? Why?"

"Calleigh, do you remember Carl Baker?"

"The man who raped and killed three women?"

"As a matter of fact, yes. He showed up in Dallas and I'd like to have somebody there to help the Dallas team."

"Oh… All right. When should I go?"

"The sooner the better."

"Right. I'll catch the earliest plane."

"Thank you, Ma'am." And with that he hung up the phone.

Dallas. As if God had sent Horatio with this assignment. All she needed was a few day to gather her thoughts and decide what to do. To decide whether she wanted a future with Jake Berkeley.

Dallas was a bliss. Although the case was rather difficult she managed to think over her situation and sort out her feelings. As she got out of the plane she felt as if she were changed. She was determined to take a chance on her future and forget her feelings which belonged to the past. The feelings that she had towards Ryan. From that moment on she would totally concentrate on her feelings towards Jake. She would give him a chance, give them a chance.

She stepped out of her car with a huge smile on her face. She knew that Jake would be indescribably happy about the news as he had mentioned on more than one occasion that he would have liked a huge family. And now she would give him that family.

She stepped into the dark house and took the way towards the bedroom. Something was odd. She could feel it as a knot formed in her stomach. As she opened the door to the bedroom she realized why. It was dark but there was light coming out under the bathroom door and it wasn't only the light that came out of the bathroom but clearly audible noises as well. She heard the voice of Jake. But he wasn't alone and that made her freeze to her place in the doorway.

There was a woman giggling in their bathroom with the father of her child.

A thousand thoughts began running through her mind. Suddenly she didn't know what to do. Should she go away? Or should she confront Jake right there? Should she laugh out loud or should she break down in tears?

Suddenly she turned on her heel and ran out of the house. She got into her car and leant back in the seat with tears streaming down on her face.

When did her life become so complicated?
