Whose ya mama?

It started at the hospital, Stella was just checking up on a victim of domestic depute when she ran into a familiar face. "Oh sorry. Hey Stel, didn't think you'd be on about the domestic, she's in every other week with a broken this or that." It was the English accent that brought Stella back to Earth, back to the dimly lit corridor in the A&E at Queen of Mercy. "Oh I'm sorry Tara, it's just this case got me thinking about foster families. I mean he killed both the kids they were fostering and beat her senseless every time one of them acted out." Tara put a comforting hand on Stella's back and led her towards the staff room. Once they were inside Tara pushed Stella into a chair and started the coffee. "You need a visit to see your nephew and nieces?! Why don't you bring Mac over for dinner tomorrow, or we could go out Timmy hasn't stopped going on about 'you know who'." Stella started to giggle at the image the story brought up; it was definitely one to tell the team. "Um yea I think the team should meet my other family, why don't you all come by the lab at about half 5. Everyone finishes at 6; we could all go to dinner then. Thanks for the coffee and the chat Tara but I really have to go check on Mrs. Sumner" Just as Stella got up Tara handed her a photo. As Stella looked at it she got tears in her eyes, it was of Maddy and Timmy's birthday party, two weeks ago, they were playing twister it made for a wonderful site with Luna in her carrier just in the corner of the picture clapping away. "Thanks hun I'll see you guys tomorrow. Phone me when you're getting into the elevator. I love you guys." With a final hug Stella was gone.

2 hours later she arrived back at the Lab to find the Messer-Monroe show still in full swing. Flack and Angell had taken up residence in her office to survive the arctic temperature crossing back and forth between the two CSI's. Mac came running into her office just as she sat down. "We have a problem." Stella just stared at him, Flack finally broke the stare. "What's with the 'we' Mac. Messer's the one who told her she looked liked she was eating better. She's pregnant; he just didn't get the hints. They were so obvious, a baby scan on his desk, a big red circle on the calendar in their office, baby booties in his locker, a bib that said 'I love my daddy'. Need I go on." Stella just began to laugh; she was too amused to hide it. "Well we've all been invited out to dinner tomorrow by some friends of mine. They'll be here at half 5, we all finish at 6. Flack you know who I'm talking about don't you?" Flack went bright red while Angell began to cry with laughter. "Yeah, Detective Duck." Angell just had to say it, this sent Stella and herself into a fresh batch of laughter. "I'll explain tomorrow, right now we have a suspect to interview." Flack began to walk out of the room, Stella caught his arm. "Uhm Flack, you might need to add another count to the charge. The wife isn't expected to last the night. Internal bleeding, swelling of the brain and her broken ribs are dangerously close to puncturing something." With that Flack and Angell walk back into the war zone leaving Mac and Stella alone in the office. "I think I'll go give Linds a hand, talk her down a bit. Get her to forgive Danny." Mac chuckled, if anybody could get Lindsay to forgive Danny it was Stella Bonasera. Unofficial love of his life.
