A/N: I am planning on uploading the rest of the chapters that I have saved from when I started this project. There are a total of 7 chapters to the story. These are not newly written, so keep that in mind. R&R.
A few days later things seemed to settle some. Catherine, and Warrick had talked things through. Although Catherine was cautious she wasn't quite as unhappy about the situation as she had been. She was beginning to see that things were going to work out. Catherine was at a scene collecting evidence with Greg. Grissom had arranged things so that no one could question the ability to focus on their jobs by making sure people with ongoing relationships didn't work together. But when it was something major that needed double the brain power, but a brain that functioned as one he appropriately paired people. On this particular day Grissom was paired with Nick, and Warrick was paired with Sara, which left Catherine to be paired with Greg. Greg was across the room collecting evidence when he came across something he wanted Catherine's opinion on.
"Catherine can you come over here please?"
"Sure?"
"What do you make of this?" Greg asks as he points to blood spatter on the wall.
"There's a void in the spatter,"
"I've never seen a void like that,"
Before Catherine can answer Greg she begins having sharp pains. Just as she gets ready to answer him she doubles over in pain.
"Catherine are you ok?" Greg asks her in concern.
"I need a minute Greg,"
"Ok,"
She calls Nick who is currently in the lab to come out to the scene. She doesn't really tell him what's going on, other than the fact that there's an emergency and she has to leave. Nick arrives not long after, and she drives herself to the hospital. By the time she gets into the emergency room the pain makes it so she can barely walk. They immediately give her a bed, and send her a doctor. Doctor Alexander just happens to be there.
"Catherine what's wrong?"
"I don't know,"
"Are you having some sort of pain,"
"Uh huh,"
The doctor tries to keep her talking. He notices that she's bleeding. But he tries to keep her from noticing.
"What's happening?"
"I'm going to start an I.V. with some pain medication," the doctor lied. He started an I.V. but only so he could knock her out. He knew what was happening. She didn't. The baby had stopped growing. Her body was trying to miscarry but it couldn't. He did an ultra sound to see what was going on exactly. He managed to get ahold of Warrick. He made sure Warrick knew what was going on. Then he took Catherine into surgery to remove the fetus. Normally he wouldn't have to remove the fetus, the body would do it by itself, but for some reason Catherine's body hadn't. He updated Warrick on the situation, after he sent Catherine into recovery.
"Warrick can I speak with you please?"
"Yes,"
"I didn't want to say anything earlier, because I couldn't be sure on how things were going to go. We removed the fetus. But there's something you need to know,"
"Were there complications?"
"No everything went fine. I did an ultrasound before the surgery,"
"Yeah and?"
"Catherine was carrying twins,"
"Oh,"
"The other twin was healthy. We didn't have to remove it,"
"So she's still pregnant?"
"Yes, but we have to watch her closely for the next few days to make sure that she doesn't miscarry the second baby. She's going to be unconscious for a while. We can probably tell what's going to happen with the other baby by the time she wakes up,"
"Ok,"
The doctor was right. The medication wore off after about a day, but Catherine continued to sleep due to the stress the surgery had put on her body. She woke up about 3 days after she had been admitted to the hospital. Warrick was sitting next to her when she woke up. She opened her eyes and stared at him for a while.
"Hey," Warrick smiles.
"What happened? How long have you been here? How long have I been here,"
"One question at a time. You've been here for three days, so have I,"
"What happened?"
Warrick doesn't want to tell her. He knows what it'll do to her.
"Uh I'm not sure you really want to know,"
"Yes I do. Tell me what happened,"
"You miscarried the baby,"
"No," she begins to cry. He tries to console her. He tries to hold her. But she pushes him away.
"No don't touch me," she cries.
"Catherine don't do this,"
"This isn't fair. After everything why can't one thing go right?"
Before Warrick can say anything more the doctor comes in. As soon as he walks in he can tell that Warrick has already told Catherine the bad news. He walks over to her bed and waits a few seconds for her to calm down some.
"Catherine we need to discuss something," the doctor informs her.
"I already know. I don't want to talk about it,"
"It's about something else,"
"I don't care. I don't care. I don't want to hear anything else,"
"Yes you do, you want to hear this," Warrick assures her.
"What else could I possibly want to hear? I just want to be left alone,"
"Miss Willows you were carrying twins,"
"So I miscarried twins? Why would you tell me that?"
"You only miscarried one baby. You're still pregnant. From the looks of things everything with that baby is fine. The baby is healthy, but I want to keep you here for a while to make sure things stay that way,"
"How long?"
"For the rest of the week,"
"I doubt that anything else will happen. I'm really surprised that you miscarried the first baby because you're already into you're second trimester,"
"What?"
"Miss Willows you're about 4 months pregnant,"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes,"
"The reason I came up here was to check on you, but I'd like to do an ultrasound,"
Catherine is visibly reluctant. The doctor tells her that everything is going to be fine. Finally she agrees to let him do an ultrasound. She holds Warrick's hand tightly as the doctor does an ultrasound. He has to be extremely careful because although he's taken the stitches out from the surgery it could still be painful. The doctor studies the screen for awhile before turning it around for Catherine, and Warrick to see. He turns on the volume so they can hear the baby's heartbeat.
"See there's nothing to worry about," the doctor reassures her. "You have a beautiful and healthy baby,"
"You say that, but how do you know that something isn't going to happen?"
"The baby is fine. As long as you're careful not to over do it you'll be fine,"
"Are you sure?" Catherine asks.
"Catherine you heard the doctor you'll be fine," Warrick reassures her.
"While I'm here do you want to know what the baby is?"
"What do you mean?" Warrick asks.
"Do you want to know the gender of the baby?"
"No," Catherine says definitively.
"I want to,"
"I can tell you,"
"Ok,"
"Come outside and I'll tell you,"
"Ok,"
Warrick follows the doctor outside the room.
"So?"
"You're having a little boy,"
"Thank you,"
Warrick rushes back into the room to be with Catherine with a huge smile on his face.
"Warrick you know that this may happen again,"
"Catherine if you keep telling yourself things are going to end up badly they will,"
