I've been thinking about this story for a while, but didn't know how to start it. So finally I got it! And here you go. Please read and enjoy.
One other thing, this story is based in the Always Universe. Always was my first story, this takes place about five months before the epilogue. Quick recap: Rick and Kate are married for four years and have a three year old daughter, Lizzie. Alexis is 23, Martha is married to William, (sorry, I forgot his last name.) And Rick and Kate have a yellow Lab by the name of Hemingway. That's pretty much it. Please enjoy.
Prologue
Kate was leaning against the cool tile wall of the handicap stall in the precinct restroom. In her hands she held a pregnancy test, waiting on edge for the result to show up.
Kate thought back to how the small stick ended up in her hands. She had been sitting alone at her desk when she had to use the bathroom for the fourth time in half an hour, calculating she realized she was late. She was on her way to the restroom when she saw Officer Emma Woods. Remembering that the woman and her husband were trying to get pregnant Kate stopped her and asked if she had a pregnancy test. Nodding Emma led Kate to her locker, and pulled out a test. Kate thanked her and asked she not tell anybody, Emma agreed as Kate stuffed the test in her pocket and walked back toward the bathroom.
Someone entering the woman's restroom startled Kate from the recent memory.
"Detective Beckett?"
"Yes?"
"It's Officer Woods. Detectives Ryan and Esposito want to know if you're okay."
Kate unlocked the stall allowing the door to swing past her; she looked out at the woman. Pregnancy test still in hand.
"Can you tell them I'm fine."
"Yes, Detective."
"Thanks." Kate said leaning back against the tiled wall, hearing the door swing open and fall closed as Emma left.
She looked back down at the test in her hands after a minute a small plus sign appeared. Kate exhaled and couldn't help the small smile growing on her face. She was pregnant with her second child. She and Rick were having another baby.
Short prologue, but not the entire story, and please REVIEW. :)
