Note: Thanks for the review:)
Warrick sat down in the orange plastic chair in the Desert Palm waiting room. He hid his face in his hands, the afternoon's events taking an obvious toll on him.
"Warrick?"
He looked up at the sound of his name being called, and saw his supervisor, Gil Grissom, standing before him.
"Hey," Warrick miserably replied.
"What happened?"
Warrick sighed heavily.
"Cath's stomach had been hurting, but she didn't tell me. Or anyone for that matter. She didn't think it was a big deal. When we stopped here she was in a lot of pain… and she miscarried the baby." Warrick lowered his head back down into his hands.
Gil sat down next to the younger man, searching for the appropriate words. "I'm so sorry." He paused, glancing around before saying anything else. "How is she?"
"Bad. She had to be sedated when we got here." Warrick's voice was just barely a whisper.
"Where's Lindsay?"
"At home with Cath's mom. She volunteered to stay with Linds until we could come home," Warrick answered quietly. He sat up, running his hands over his face to hide his emotions.
"Do you need anything?" Gil asked.
"Not at the moment. Cath needed some sort of exam done and I wasn't allowed to stay in the room while it was being done. So I'm just waiting for the nurse to tell me I can go back in."
As he finished his sentence, a nurse nodded to him, signaling could now go to his girlfriend's room. Warrick stood up, took a few steps, then turned around to face his boss.
"Wanna come with me?"
Gil nodded slowly as he stood up, and followed the man to Catherine's room.
