Chapter 14: New Home

Moving was and is one of the hardest things to do for Calleigh, since she loved her home, but now she has a new one. She was getting help from Alexx, Natalia, Eric, and Ryan, Frank and of course Horatio. Horatio and the men were putting the already packed boxes in the moving truck while Calleigh and the two women were packing the boxes. Calleigh would give what she wanted to take to Horatio's house to Natalia, who would wrap it up in newspaper or bubble wrap and then hand it to Alexx, who would put it in the moving box.

They didn't know what the guys were doing, but Calleigh trusted them with her belongings, plus Horatio was there to make sure nothing happened to her things. The women were talking back and forth about what Calleigh was going to do with this house which Calleigh told them that she was selling it to her father, so that he would be closer to work and to Horatio's house incase something happened that she would be able to come over here and stay.

"What about the nursery that you already have here?" asked Natalia, as she handed one of Calleighs' priceless antique ballerina figurines to Alexx who gently put it inside the box, surrounding it with bubble wrap.

"My dad and I agreed that he will keep the nursery like it is until Nikki here is old enough, in which he will make it into a quest room once again" Calleigh told Natalia "Ooo, Ohh" she moaned

Alexx and Natalia stopped what they were doing and looked at Calleigh. Calleigh just smiled at the two women and motioned them to come to her. That is what they did too; they were by her side in an instant, praying that the baby wasn't wanting to come out now. Calleigh shook her head and grabbed their hands and placed them on her stomach. They felt a stiff kick where their hands were and that made the two women melt.

"Oh my goodness, is that Nicole?" asked Natalia

"Yeah, that sure is" Calleigh "She will kick me none stop until she hears her fathers voice, sometimes it drives me nuts, but hey I love my baby"

"I can't believe that my baby is growing up and becoming a mother," joked Alexx about Calleigh

"Funny Alexx" Calleigh told her "I'm still your baby in a way, just more motherly now"

The three women laughed. Calleigh had been starting to call baby Alexx by the nickname Nikki, so as not to confuse anybody. Horatio thought that it was cute, so he started to call baby Alexx, Nikki as well. Everybody else called her Nicole; they thought that they would let Horatio and Calleigh call Nicole, Nikki since it was their baby. Calleigh and Horatio didn't mind that everybody else started calling her Nikki, but they all simply refused, they said that maybe when she is older they would start doing that, but right now, it was going to be Nicole.

"You sure are Calleigh" said Alexx, finishing up the box and taping it up "What are the guys up to, do you know?"

"They are probably asking Horatio if you two have had sex yet," said Natalia "But I wouldn't know"

"They better not be, because first off, its none of their business if Horatio and I have had sex yet, or if were going to have sex" Calleigh told them "Plus I don't kiss and tell"

"So you have!" exclaimed Natalia

"No!…Yes.." Calleigh shyly told the two women as she blushed bright red "It was the spur of the moment thing, once we got passed that line, we couldn't stop"

"Oh My God!" yelled Natalia "Wow!"

"Shhh.." Calleigh told Natalia "The boys.."

Horatio and the guys were down stairs getting some water to drink when they heard somebody yell "Oh My God" from upstairs and immediately they put there glasses down and climbed the stairs two at a time. They reached one of Calleighs guest rooms and came to a complete stop when the women looked at them. Calleigh was the first to speak since Alexx and Natalia weren't doing that.

"Hey Handsome" smiled Calleigh "Sorry about that, Natalia couldn't keep her voice down" she told him as she turned her head to face Natalia, giving her a stern look and mouthing 'You are in trouble' before turning around to face Horatio and the guys once more "Its nothing, she couldn't keep her containment"

"Ok, as long as you are ok" Horatio asked "You are ok, right?" he asked as he stepped up to her

"Yeah, I'm ok, nothing is wrong..Oh thanks for speaking, your daughter here was kicking the inside of my stomach so hard, I thought that she was going to kick right through" she joked, making everybody in the room laugh, "What? It's true," she told the crew as she took a step forward and gave Horatio a peck on the lips before hugging him. Horatio put his chin on top of her head, all the while, rubbing her stomach, trying to get Nicole to settle down.

Eric, Ryan, Frank, Natalia and Alexx all watched as these two people in front of them showed so much affection that you would have never thought that three months ago that they had a fight, that was long forgotten. Of course they had a few minor disagreements since then, but they always seemed to make up, whether it be by making out or telling each other that they love one another. Affection was always the key for these two and it never once was bad.

"Hey Calleigh, does this mean that you are coming back to CSI?" asked Eric

"Yeah" said everybody else, wanting to know if Calleigh was certainly coming back to CSI, since they all missed her smile and southern accent at work

Calleigh looked up at Horatio, seeing if it was ok for her to tell the group about their decision. They had talked about it that day at the restaurant and then again a few nights ago. At first they did bicker, since Horatio wanted Calleigh to stay at home a rest, but Calleigh refused to back down and told him as to why she wanted to be at work when the baby did decide to make her presence known. Horatio thought about it and they both did agree that Calleigh would be on desk duty, unless the team needed her help on a case, but she was not allowed to leave CSI on a case since she was pregnant and he didn't want anything to happen to her or the baby.

Looking back to the group, Calleigh smiled, knowing that they would be happy when they hear her answer. Nobody knew besides Kenwall. Her father was nervous about her going back to work in her state, but after conversation that the three had, he knew that she was in the bast hands.

"Well, Horatio and I have talked and it looks like that I will be coming back to work in about a month. I have to take my proficiency tests again to be able to go out in the field but my firearms proficiency isn't up for another few months, so I can still help ya'll out on the bullet side" she told everybody

"You do know that you will be on desk duty for the remainder of the pregnancy," said Ryan

"Yep, I know, I have this little one to worry about now" Calleigh said, rubbing her stomach, earning her a swift kick "She is going to be a soccer player because of the way she kicks my insides"

"You don't know, she might be a CSI, like her parents" said Frank "She does have the genes of the top two CSI's in the state"

"As long as she doesn't develop her moms attitude towards guns" says Eric, "I don't feel like getting another gun to the face by a…" he stopped right there, because he didn't know whether to call the baby a Caine or Duquesne

Calleigh decided to help on that end "Caine" she told Eric "She is a Caine, I will still be Duquesne"

"Aww, little Alexx Nicole Caine" said Natalia

"Yeah, Oh before I forget, hey Alexx, how would you like to be Nikki's godmother?" asked Calleigh

"I would love to Calleigh" Alexx answered her back, giving her a hug

"Eric, how would you like to be the godfather?" asked Horatio

"Wow, H, I would be honored" Eric said "Thanks"

"Ok, enough, I'm hungry and the little one here is too" Calleigh said to the group "So lets go eat"

The group laughed at this, but they too were hungry to argue with her. They exited the guest room and walked down the stairs. Horatio was helping Calleigh so that she wouldn't fall. Alexx was talking to Natalia about her and Eric and Frank and Eric talking about Eric's relationship between him and Natalia. Calleigh just watched the interaction and then looked at Horatio and smiled.

They got to the bottom of the stairs and they all headed towards the door. Calleigh getting her flip flips on and the others were getting their things together. They all exited the house, Calleigh taking one more look at it, since after today, she will no longer be living in this house, but she will be living with Horatio, raiding their daughter together when she is born.
