Originaly this wasn't going to be fanfiction, but I changed my mind when I realized the dirrections I could take with it. I don't own CSI. LLK is an amazing beta and friend.
Prologue
A woman in her late thirties walked towards a man dressed in dark, business appropriate clothing. Her high heels made clicking noises against the hard tiled floor of the grocery store. Her breathing became more rapid while the nerves built up in her stomach. She stood in front of the man, his height towering over hers. For a moment she didn't say a word, the silence of the mostly empty store filling her mind. She crossed her arms and looked the man in his light brown eyes. With determination and every last strand of emotional strength she had left in her, the woman allowed her words to escape her lips.
"I'm pregnant, the child is yours, and I'm keeping it."
For half an agonizing minute the man in the suit pondered this information with a look of clear shock written across his face, causing the woman's skin to crawl with anticipation.
"You did this on purpose!" the man almost shouted, raising his hand and bringing it down across the woman's ivory cheek. The force of the blow pushed the woman back, her curled, strawberry-blond hair flying around her head. After regaining her balance, she looked straight into his eyes while holding her hand to her cheek.
"This isn't just going to go away like all your other problems." With that said, the woman turned and left the store.
