5 months later….

Warrick entered his house after a tiring shift. He walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge, after making himself a sandwich he was about to get in the shower when the phone rang

"Hello?"

"Hi babe it's me" answered a voice in the other side

"Oh hey Tina, you're still working?" asked Warrick kinda concerned

"Uhm, yeah. Nancy had to go to one of his kids school plays so I'm covering for her…" she said not sounding too convincing

"You really shouldn't be working being 5 months pregnant. And now you're working a double?" he said raising his voice a little.

"Look, Warrick I'm not gonna fight with you about this right now okay? I have to work. Bye" She said and hung up. David smiled at her and kissed her passionately, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back.

Warrick slammed his phone shut. And took a shower. He got in bed and tried to sleep but like every night his mind was on the woman he loved, Catherine. Things between them had been so awkward and weird at work, they had been trying to avoid each other and the whole team seemed to notice. His mind wandered back to the conversation he eavesdropped two days ago…

He was walking to the locker room to get his things and go home. He just wanted some rest after the awkward shift he had. Grissom had put him and Catherine together in the case and the tension between them was unbearable. He hoped for their sake that Catherine wasn't in the locker room too but he stopped in front of the door when he heard her voice.

"I'm fine Nicky, really" Catherine said managing a fake smile and sitting down in the bench to put on her shoes.

"Come on Cath. I know you're not okay." He said sitting down next to her. Catherine just stared at the floor. "Cath look at me." He said putting a hand in her shoulder. She looked at him with her eyes full of tears. "It's not fair" she whispered and rested her head on his shoulder. Nick wrapped his arms around his friend as she sobbed. "I know, I know. But Cath, you two need to talk. I've never seen both of you so sad and miserable. The two of you should be together. That's what I told Warrick when he confessed his feelings for you. Everyone here is concerned about the two of you. Even Greggo. He said Warrick should manhandle you." They both laughed about Greg's comment. Catherine lifted her head up from his shoulder and wipped her tears. "But he's going to have a baby Nicky…" Cath said sighing. "Who cares! Nobody is telling him he shouldn't be that kid's father. He will be a great father for that baby but he has to be happy too. That's what I've been telling him, he just doesn't get it! I just want to see my two best friends smiling again" Nick said blushing a little with his last comment. Catherine looked at him grinning. "What?" he asked. "You really are a great friend Nicky. Thank you." Nick smiled shyly and hugged her again.

Warrick sighed sadly at the memory. "Nick is right" he said out loud. "I have a right to be happy. And so does Cath. I will talk to Tina tomorrow." He turned around and sleep soon overtook him.

The team was sitting on the meetings room drinking coffee as they waited for Ecklie to come and start one of his boring meetings. The only one who wasn't there was Warrick.

"Hey guys, where is Warrick?." Asked Sara. Everyone shrugged. In that moment Ecklie entered the room.

"Okay everyone. Let´s get this over with fast so you can all go to work. Where is CSI Brown?" He asked looking at the CSI´s. As if on cue Warrick entered the room huffing and looking pretty pissed off, he slammed the door shut behind him. Everyone looked at him confused as he took a sit next to Greg. "You're late Brown. And what's with the attitude?" Asked Ekclie. "Whatever." Was Warrick only reply. Catherine glanced at him confused but he just looked down.

After the meeting was over everyone got their assignments and Warrick and Catherine were working together again. Apparently according to Grissom that was the best way for them to deal with each other and figure out their problems.

They were walking trough the parking lot towards the Tahoe. "So, drive or ride?" She asked trying to make small talk. "Whichever" Warrick said annoyed. Catherine grabbed his arm and turned him to face her "Okay, what the hell is your problem today?" she asked looking directly into his eyes. He moved his arm away from her hand "I don't have a problem Catherine" he said bittery. "Are you kidding me? Look, Warrick I know things are weird between us right now but you don't need to come to me with that attitude. And what about the scene you pulled in Ecklie´s meeting earlier?" She said her hands on her hips. Warrick sighed and looked to the floor, then back at her. "I'm sorry Cath. It's just…Tina, she…"

"She what?" Asked Catherine not really pleased to talk about his wife, but they were friends anyway, even if things were weird now she still wanted to be his friend.

"She's been cheating on me" he whispered.

Catherine just stared at him with a puzzled look on her face and her mouth wide open.

Tina is a bitch huh?? Hehe
