Chapter 1
Lindsay Monroe had been working at the New York Crime Lab for almost a year. Her boyfriend of three months had recently broken up with her and just a few days ago found out that she is four weeks pregnant. Lindsay entered the Crime Lab early on a cold Wednesday morning in early December after paying a visit to her ex-boyfriend to tell him that she's pregnant, but he wanted nothing to do with her or the baby, so she decided to go in to work early before anyone arrived, to do some research on her computer. She headed to her office that she shares with her partner Danny Messer. She sat down in her chair and opened up the internet and put "Pregnancy" into the search engine. She was there for about two hours before she looked at the time and noticed that the team would soon start to be coming in. So she decided to go take a shower in the locker room so she would feel a little bit better.
Ten minutes after Lindsay left her office Danny walked in and sat at his desk. He started to do some paper work so it would not pile up. After a few minutes he realized that he needed to cheek something on Lindsay's computer, so he went around to the other side of the desk and opened the window to try and find what he needed, but as he was scrolling down he came across things such as; Giving Birth: Your Guide to Labour, articles about morning sickness and so much more. He just closed up the window and left the office to try and find Lindsay. While he was walking down the hall he saw Mac walking towards him so he decided to ask him if he had seen Lindsay.
"Hey Mac."
"Danny Hi, what can I do for you?"
"I was just wondering if you had seen Lindsay."
"Yah I did, her and Stella headed back to their crime scene from yesterday."
"Ok, thanks Mac."
Danny headed back to his office to work more on his paper work until a case came in for him to do.
After two hours of doing paper work he decided to take a break. He walked out of the office and headed toward the break room. On his way he crossed paths with Stella and stopped her so he could talk to her.
"Hey Stel."
"Hey Danny, what's up?"
"Nothing, I was just wondering, are you and Lindsay working on case involving anyone who is pregnant?"
"No, why Danny?"
"No reason just wondering, I will talk to you later Stel."
"Ok, bye Danny."
Danny started his way back to the break room. When he entered the break room he noticed Hawks in there drinking a cup of coffee.
"Hey Hawks."
"Hey Danny."
"Hawks can you give me some symptoms for pregnancy, I know the basics but I just want to know more."
"Sure." Hawks said with a confused look on his face.
"Well there is the missed period, morning sickness, breast get bigger, mood swings, eating differently then normal, urinating more, back pain, tired more then usual, gaining weight, dressing differently. I guess those are the major symptoms and things to look out for. Why do you want to know? Do you think you got someone pregnant?"
"No, just think that a friend of mine might be pregnant. Thanks Hawks."
"No problem buddy."
Danny walked out of the break room and back into his office to think over what Hawks had said.
When Danny's shift finished he went to the Crime Lab's parking lot and got into his car and he started driving home, but half way there he turned his car around and headed in the other direction and stared to head to Lindsay's place. He had not seen her all day and had not had the change to talk to her. He arrived there with in 15 minutes considering it was late at night so there was not much traffic. Danny got out of his car and head into Lindsay's apartment and up to her floor. He came to her door and knocked and waited until she opened the door.
Lindsay was sitting on her couch drinking some tea thinking about the life that was growing inside of her when she heard someone knocking at the door, so she got up to answer the door. When she opened the door she was surprised to see Danny standing in front of her.
"Danny, Hi."
"Hey Lindsay."
"Can I come in?"
"Sure."
Lindsay stepped aside to let Danny through. She closed the door behind him then went to sit back on the couch. Danny sat on her coffee table in front of her so he could look into her eyes. He grabbed her hands into his larger ones and rubbed the back of her hands with his thumbs. He stared into her eyes for a few seconds until he started to speak.
"Linds you know that I care for you and that I do not want anything to happen to you."
Lindsay just nodded and kept looking at him.
"And you know that you can tell me anything. I will always be there for you no mater what."
"I know that Danny."
"Good. So do you want to tell me something?"
"Danny, what is going on?"
"Linds, I what you to tell me what's going on."
"Danny what are you trying to get at?"
"Linds, I really want you to trust and be able to confide things in me even if they are really heard to tell me."
"Danny it seems that you already know something, but are trying to get me to tell you."
Danny smiled at her.
"You know me too well Montana."
Lindsay smiled back at him.
Lindsay took a deep breath, looked into Danny's eyes and all she saw there was love. She started to talk and tell her story to one of the few people she trusts.
"A week ago my boyfriend broke up with me and two days ago I found out that I am a month pregnant. I went and told him about the baby and he does not want anything to do with the baby or me."
Lindsay just sat there waiting for Danny to say something. Danny was just sitting there and letting what she told him sink in. He new that she was pregnant because of what he found on her computer, but just hearing her say that she's pregnant just made it all so real.
Lindsay kept looking at him until she got up from the couch and walked over to the window and looked out at the New York night sky. After a few minutes Danny looked up to started talking to Lindsay, but when he looked up she was not sitting on the couch like before. He looked around the living room until he saw her standing by the window and saw her whip a tear from her face with her hand.
Danny walked over towards her and wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered in her ear.
"Linds, everything will be ok."
Lindsay turned around in Danny's arms and looked right into his blue eyes.
Lindsay said quietly. "I'm scared Danny." Lindsay buried her face into his chest.
"I know Linds, but I will be here every step of the way. Do you here me."
Lindsay nodded her head while it was still in his chest. Danny could feel the tears that she was crying on his shirt. He picked her up bridal style and carried her into her bedroom and gentle put her down in her bed. He was about to leave her room when she stopped him from leaving.
"Danny please do not leave, stay with me please."
Danny went to the other side of her double bed and he lay down beside her and pulled her into his side and a few minutes later she was asleep.
Danny woke to his cell phone ringing at 7:00 in the morning. He let go of Lindsay who was still sleeping and he reached over to the bedside table, where he had left his cell phone the night before.
"Messer."
"Danny, its Mac I need you at the Lab. We have a big case we need all hands on deck. We already have enough people in the field, but we need as many people in the lab processing the evidence. There is going to be a lot of evidence coming in."
"Ok Mac I will be there as soon as possible."
Danny hung up the phone and turned back to look at Lindsay who was still sleeping. He gentle woke her up.
"Linds, you need to get up. Mac just called me and he says that he needs all hands on deck."
Lindsay stirred and opened her eyes and saw Danny looking at her.
"Hey there beautiful. How did you sleep?"
"Really good."
"That's great, but we are needed at work right now. So we need to get up."
Before Danny got up he placed a kiss on Lindsay's forehead then got up and walked into the kitchen to make them something to eat.
While Lindsay was getting ready her cell phone rang as well and Mac told her that she was needed at the Lab as well. After Lindsay got off the phone Danny came into the room.
"Linds, I will be right back. I am just going to my car to get my bag with my clothes, so I can change before we leave."
"Ok Danny."
When Danny got back to Lindsay's apartment Lindsay was sitting in the kitchen eating breakfast. Danny walked into Lindsay's room so he could change. After 10 minutes he came back out and sat down with Lindsay to eat his breakfast.
"Hey Linds, How are you feeling today?"
"Ok I guess. I bit tired and nauseas but I think I will be fine."
"Linds if you are not feeling well any time today come and tell me. I do not want you to over due your self and harm the baby ok."
Lindsay nodded her head yes while there were tears in her eyes.
"Hey, hey what's with the tears?"
"I am just so happy. I can't believe you care so much about me and care so much about my baby and it is not even yours."
"Montana I care about this baby because you are carrying it and you are its mother and I care for you so much."
"Danny you do not have to do this you know that." Lindsay said while crying.
Danny when over to sit beside her and lifted her chin so he could see into her eyes.
"Lindsay I know I do not have to do this, but I want to do this. I want to be there for you and the baby."
Lindsay just looked at him with a big smile on her face and happy tears in her eyes.
Lindsay stood up and brought Danny up with her and she wrapped her arms around him and Danny just held her. Before Danny let go he placed a kiss on her head then let go of her and looked her in the eyes and smiled.
"Hey Linds lets head into work before they send out a search party for us."
"Ok." Lindsay gave him a kiss then with their interlaced hands they walked out of the apartment and headed to Danny's car and made their way to the Lab.
Danny and Lindsay both entered the lab and walked straight to Mac's office to see what he wanted them to do.
They knocked on his office door and waited until they heard that they could come in.
"Come in."
Mac looked up to see who had entered and saw that it was Lindsay and Danny.
"Lindsay, Danny hi."
"Hey Mac." They both said.
"Mac what do you want us do to." Danny asked.
"I want both of you in the Trace Lab."
"Ok." They both said and headed out of Mac's office and headed to the Trace Lab.
Danny and Lindsay had been working for a few hours when Danny saw that Lindsay's hand went to her lower back.
"Linds are you ok?"
"Yah, my back is just really bugging me."
"Why don't we go have a break?"
"Danny we really need finish these."
Danny gave her a look that she had never seen before
"Lindsay, right now I do not care about finishing this, what I care about is that you and the baby are ok, so can you take a break for me please."
Lindsay looked at him and smiled. No one had every cared about her this much.
"Ok." Lindsay took off her lab coat and grabbed Danny's hand and he lead them to the break room. He sat her down on the couch and Danny went to make her some tea. Danny joined her after he had finished making her the tea and sat down next to her and handed her the tea.
"Here Linds."
"Thanks Danny."
"So how are you feeling?"
"Ok I guess. The morning sickness has not started yet."
"That's good."
"When's your next appointment?"
"Four weeks. Why?"
"I want to come with you."
Lindsay looked at him and tears started to roll down her cheek.
"Lindsay why are you crying?"
"Danny you do not have to come with me."
"I know that Lindsay, but I want to come with you."
"So are you going to tell me why you are crying?"
"I am crying because no one has cared this much about me before."
"Well now you do because you are not getting rid of me. Ok." Danny lifted her chin so he could look into her eyes.
"Ok."
"I am not going anywhere."
Lindsay put down her tea on the table and she lay down on the couch with her head on Danny's lap. Danny put his hand on her head and started to stroke it and put kisses on it. After five minutes Lindsay had fallen asleep and Danny just sat there and watched her sleep. About 30 minutes laters the rest of the team walked into the break room and saw Lindsay sleeping on Danny's lap.
"Hey Danny is everything ok." Stella asked.
"Yah she is just really tired."
"She never has fallen asleep at work before. Is everything ok with her?" Mac asked concerned about one of his employees.
"Yah she will be fine after she wakes up."
"Danny how do you know all this stuff. You do not know if she will be fine once she wakes up." Hawks said.
Hawks was just looking to Danny then Lindsay who was still sleeping on his lap then everything connected together.
"Danny is Lindsay….."
"Hawks, Lindsay will be just fine." Danny cut him off before he could say anything else.
Everyone looked at him weirdly before they all shook it off and went back to work.
"Danny you and Lindsay can stay here, you guys did a lot of work today so once Lindsay wakes up you guys can go home and take the rest of the week off as well."
"Thanks Mac."
"Don't sweat it. You guys deserved it."
"See you next week then."
"Yah, bye."
Lindsay slept for another 30 minutes before she woke up.
Lindsay started to stir and Danny looked down at her and saw her eyes open.
"Hey sleeping beauty."
"Hi."
"Have a good sleep?"
Lindsay just nodded her head yes.
Lindsay then realized that she was still at work.
"Danny I have to go back to work. I can not believe I feel asleep."
"Linds don't worry. Mac said we can both go home as soon as you wake up and told us to take the week off."
"Why did he do that?"
"He did it because he said that we deserved it because we have been working really hard lately."
"O, ok,"
"So you want to go now?"
"Yah."
Danny and Lindsay headed out of the lab and headed to Lindsay's apartment.
