"Handsome wake up. Or we're going to be late." Calleigh tried waking Horatio up. She has been having a hard time waking him up ever since she moved in with him a month ago.

"Five more minutes please." Horatio groaned.

"No. Wake up now. Our appointment is at 10 Horatio. It's 9 now." Calleigh said firmly. Horatio took the pillow and hid his face under it. "Ugh. Always Horatio. I always have such a hard time waking you up. I wonder if it's time for the baby to come, will you be able to wake up or do I have to call for a taxi and go all by myself." Calleigh complained aloud.

"I am so tired. Five more minutes please Sweetheart." His voice muffled by the pillow. Calleigh was annoyed at Horatio she decided to get on the bed and sat on top of him. "Horatio Caine. Wake up now." She ordered as she pulled the pillow off his face.

"Oh god Cal." He gasped. "What? Am I too heavy for you now? It's your fault okay." Horatio peeked through his one opened eye and chuckled out loud.

"What's so funny Horatio Caine?" Calleigh feigned seriousness.

"You're adorable when you're angry." Now fully awake, Horatio smiled cheekily.

"Yeah and you always think you can get away with that cheeky and charming smile of yours don't you?"

"Don't I always?" He continued smiling. Calleigh smacked his arm playfully. "Get up now or we're gonna be late."

"Kiss?" "What?" Calleigh pretended not to hear him as she got off him but was pulled back down.

"You have not given me my morning kiss. I'm not getting up until I get one." Horatio demanded jokingly.

"Fine." She said as she leaned down, giving him a passionate kiss. "There. Satisfied? Now get up." Horatio gave her his most rare smile as he lazily got out from bed.

"Are you coming in with me?" He asked as he entered the bathroom.

"No." Calleigh said in a straight up manner. "I know what you're thinking Mr. Caine. And I've already showered and am ready." Horatio sulked. "Don't be such a kid Horatio." She walked up to him and gave him a kiss. "Be a man. I'll see you downstairs." Horatio nodded and went into the shower. He got ready within 10minutes and went down.

"Okay I'm done. Let's go before we run late." Horatio spoke up as he wore his shoes.

"Says the person who had such a hard time waking up." Calleigh jested.

"Okay okay. I'm sorry sweetheart." Horatio apologized and kissed her on the cheek.

Both of them walked hand-in-hand towards the hummer and Horatio opened the door for her and waited for her to settle down before going to the driver's seat. As he settled down, Calleigh handed him his coffee.

"Thank you sweetheart. You know me so well." Calleigh gave him her 1000-watt smile as usual.

"Oh I made you a sandwich but you didn't have time to eat so…I packed it for you." Horatio smiled at her thoughtfulness. As he was driving, Calleigh fed him the sandwich she made for him. Once they reached the clinic, they registered and waited for their turn to be called.

"Thank you for the sandwich." He said as he kissed her.

"Horatio!" She smacked him playfully. "We're in public!" Just then, Calleigh was called in.

"Okay Miss Duquesne, ready for the ultrasound?" The doctor asked. Calleigh nodded. "Okay. Let's see how the baby is doing." The doctor said whilst spreading the gel on her baby bump and tried to get the image of the baby.

"Oh hello there, babies. So, I estimate the babies are 18weeks along." Calleigh and Horatio immediately looked and smiled at each other and looked back towards the screen. "Congratulations. Looks like I can't get their genders. You've got very shy babies." The doctor smiled and both of them smiled as well. "Just like their father." Calleigh said and Horatio smiled. After the ultrasound, they made their way out and waited to be billed.

"Twins huh." Horatio stated as he smiled happily. Calleigh nodded and smiled in return. Horatio leaned into her ears, whispering seductively, "I guess I am still capable." Calleigh blushed.

"Horatio!" Calleigh pulled his ear playfully.

"Ouch." Horatio cried out and pouted like a little boy. "That hurts." He complained as he rubbed his now reddened ear.

"Stop complaining little boy." Calleigh teased.

"If I am a little boy, there won't be twins right now." He whispered, teasing her back. Calleigh gasped in embarrassment and decided to humor him.

"Alright Mr. Caine, I know how good you are and how capable you are. Stop harping about the twins will ya." She teased him again, emphasizing on the words 'good' and 'capable'. The people around them turned and Horatio blushed. His face turned red, matching the color of his hair. They settled the bill and Horatio walked out of the clinic as fast as he could. He felt so embarrassed that he felt like crawling into a hole and hiding in there forever.

"That was mean." Horatio said as he started driving. Calleigh just laughed out loud. "Not funny Cal. Not funny."

"Okay I am sorry alright. I'll stop laughing now." She tried to control her laughter but failed miserably. Horatio continued sulking.

"Come on Horatio. You've been sulking all day. You're gonna get old you know." Calleigh made fun of him.

"Yeah yeah. Now I'm too old for you." He said and kept quiet for the rest of the ride.

Once they reached home, Horatio didn't say a word to Calleigh and made his way to the room. Calleigh just chuckled at the way Horatio is behaving; like a kid. She just shook her head and made her way to the room and saw Horatio under the covers.

"Awww. Handsome, are you really playing this game with me?"

"You tell me." He spoke from under the covers.

"Come on. Get out from there." She said as she tried to pull the covers off him. He held tight to it. "Handsome come on. You're going to be a father soon and you're behaving like a kid." She tormented him non-stop. She tried to pull the covers again and this time, he let go.

"There you are my handsome Lieutenant. Open your eyes pleaaassseeee." Calleigh pleaded like a girl. Horatio chuckled and opened his eyes. "You know, you have such gorgeous blue eyes." Calleigh complimented him.

"And so is your emerald green eyes sweetheart." He said, pulling her down for a passionate kiss.

"Okay get up now." Horatio shook his head. "We need to get to work Lieutenant Caine. We're just back to grab some lunch and to get the stuff we need. Come on." She said, pulling him out of the bed. He got up and went over to his safe to get his gun and badge.

"So what's for lunch?" Horatio asked as he puts on his jacket.

"Uhh…we've got lasagna. Is that okay with you?"

"Yeah. I'm okay with anything." He smiled as he settled down. Calleigh served the lunch and they ate together peacefully while Horatio kept staring and smiling at her.

"What?" Calleigh asked, startling him.

"What?"

"You've been staring at me and smiling."

"Oh. Nothing." He looked away and finished up his remaining lunch and they both made their way to the lab. As they reached up to the lab, Horatio reminded her not to tire herself so much.

"You too Horatio. And stop thinking you're a superman. You still have to care about me and your babies. Take care okay." Calleigh reminded him and gave peck on the lips. "I'll see you later."

Once Horatio was in the lab, all his playfulness and childishness with Calleigh was dropped and his professionalism was brought back up. 'He was a different man than he was at home.' Calleigh thought and smiled at herself. She was glad that she could see the other side of Horatio Caine and she was glad that they are building a life together despite of what happened just several months ago. Horatio was no longer suicidal and was handling life very well especially with the babies coming along.

"Horatio, we've a got a DB over at 36th Pier." Frank told him as he was about to enter his office.

"Okay. Meet me over there and bring Eric along."

He went over to Frank who was standing over the body. "Any ID?" He asked. "Jimmy Maddox. 47. Gunshot to the head." He looked at Frank skeptically.

"What? Alexx told me alright." He defended himself. Horatio chuckled at Frank's antics. He looked around for any obvious clues but there was none.

"Eric, canvas the scene and Frank, look for any next of kin. Find me in the lab later when you're done. I'm going to the morgue now." Both of them nodded. Horatio drove back to the lab and met Alexx for the autopsy.

"Alexx." He greeted, informing her that he was there for the autopsy and so she started with it.

"Horatio…" She called as she looked up at him. "You see this stippling around the wound?" Horatio nodded.

"Close range shot." Alexx nodded as she measured the angle of the wound. Horatio waited for her.

"Upward angle huh Alexx?" Horatio questioned.

"Yes. Looks like it was a suicide Horatio." Horatio nodded and walked off to meet Frank to see if he has called Mr. Maddox's family.

"Hey Horatio." Calleigh greeted.

"Hey Sweetheart. What are you doing here?" Horatio asked.

"Giving Frank some reports." She smiled. "How was the case?"

"Suicide straight up." Calleigh frowned. "Hey. It's okay. I'm okay." Horatio assured her.

"John?" A woman called out. "John it's really you!" The woman was thrilled upon greeting the man she called John. Horatio turned instantaneously as he felt someone tapping his shoulder. Calleigh turned to Horatio. "Do you know her?" She asked. Horatio shook his head.

"John. Oh my god it's really you." The woman exclaimed as she hugged Horatio.
