Chapter 21

Samantha and Martin exited the car in total silence. Nobody knew what to say to the other. Neither wanted to bring up the affectionate moment that they had just before leaving the building. It was obvious that Martin cherished that moment and forever will. The cheshire like grin on his face told Samantha enough that she did something right.

She on the other hand wasn't to o sure about her actions. Letting Martin in like that was what got her there in the first place. Not only literally. She would always be grateful for their little girl Yzabella and will forever be thankful of their – as she had recently found out – baby boy on the way. It didn't matter that her kids didn't have a father. They were hers to raise and like she told Yzabella a dozen times, her father loves her. No questions about it. He just had other things on his plate.

"So how far along are you again?" Martin asked as they walked to the door of the home. He knows though, he kept a mental track of how far along she was and the month he would be expecting a new addition to the Spade family. Not Fitzgerald, family. Unfortunately.

"Just reached my five month mark," Samantha said resting a hand on her expanding belly. "I found out the sex yesterday."

Smart move there,Samantha berated herself. The plan was to not involve Martin in the life of this baby. She didn't want what happened to Yzabella to happen to the innocent baby. She didn't want what happened with her also to happen to their baby. For Martin to break the innocent child's heart. He had other things like Jessica and her son to worry about.

"Really?" Martin asked perking up.

"Yeah, it's a boy," Samantha said knocking on the door of the house trying to end the conversation there.

"Congratulations," Martin told her with a smile pressing on the doorbell button on his right. For a few beats all they did was to knock constantly at the door. Nothing.

"Stand back," Martin motioned her to stand behind him as he backed up kicking the door open with all his might. The door busted open as Martin shook his legs out feeling the pain kick in with the force of his kick to the door.

"Okay, Sam. You get that side I get this," Martin said motioning his hands left and right as he and Samantha entered the empty home throwing caution into the air.

"Alright,"Samantha said looking ahead and walking around through the hallway her gun drawn adrenalin rushing into her. That was why she loved being in the field so much. It was so exhilarating. Though being pregnant meant she had to watch out more than she would if she wasn't it still didn't matter.

Stepping into the first bedroom to her right, Samantha entered gun first then checked. "All clear" she shouted loud enough so Martin could hear. She could also hear him shouting an "all clear" to her. After the second bedroom and the small bathroom that was lead by the hall, she walked to the last bedroom that the hall branched to feeling something about it.

With her gun drawn she entered gun first then looked around seeing blood all over the place. She called out Martin's name as she stepped inside the bedroom the stench of dried blood and something else she couldn't quite place filled her nose.

"Martin!" She called out once more suddenly feeling that she couldn't handle this. Martin wasn't getting there fast enough and the last shout at him was a little more desperate than she had intended. She lent down on the nearest thing she could and sank down on the floor hugging her knees as much as she could which wasn't much since her stomach was in the way.

"Martin," she whispered in the air she her body felt limp and her eyes slowly closed.

"Samantha?!" Martin called out to her sensing her panic. He ran as fast as his tingling legs could take him peaking through each and every room until reaching the last one where he not only found evidence but Samantha on the side her body limp.

"Shit!" Martin cussed taking his phone out dialing emergency then Jack to tell him of what was going on. He stood by Samantha reaching down and feeling for a pulse feeling relieved that she did in fact have one. A little faint but at least she had a pulse.

"What happened here?" Jack asked minutes after the ambulance had taken Samantha to the hospital. Martin had vowed to come there as soon as Jack arrived.

"I don't know, Sam just fainted, but those things are fresh blood all over the carpet, everywhere," Martin said motioning all around him to the obvious stains all over the room. "I can't work this case while Samantha's in the hospital Jack. Please."

"Alright, go," Jack said knowing that Martin would be useless in the field with his concentration shut down as he worried about Samantha and the state of the obvious baby that she was carrying that he fathered.

"Thank you!" Martin said running out of the crime scene and into the car that was parked right on the curb hearing Jack's voice bellow something along the lines of "Keep" and "Updated". He just nodded to himself calling Allison knowing that she would know where Yzabella was. The girl needed to see her mother.

"Hello Ally?" Martin asked hearing the ringing of the phone stop.

"Yeah?"

"I know Samantha told you not to, but could you please bring Yzabella over to St. Vincent's? It's an emergency," Martin said swerving through cars going to the hospital as fast as possible. It was about ten minutes from the house but he intended on getting there faster than "average."

"What happened, Marty?" Allison's voice rang through the line concerned etched in her voice.

"I don't know," Martin said hearing the distant sound of a horn beeping at him from a pissed driver. He didn't care though. The most important thing now was Samantha and getting to her.

"We'll be there as soon as we can," Allison said hanging up the phone letting Martin focus a little on his driving.
