His Worst Nightmare.
Chapter: 21
Bedford hills Correctional Facility NY.
Nicole Wallace had been a busy girl she had been assigned to work in the prisons library, her new cell mate had aroused her interest. She hadn't been very talkative and her constant cleaning and sorting through her belongings was getting on her nerves. She was not allowed internet access in the library, since when had she ever allowed herself to be forbidden from doing anything, the fools. All she needed was the password and that would be a piece of cake.
Libraries were the sources of all knowledge; it was something that she had in common with Bobby, oh not only to goad him about his mother, god rest her tortured soul. She had always loved to read and learn things. She had learnt not only from the books though, the officer who was in charge had been in Bedford Hills for 20 years and a fountain of knowledge and to her utmost joy very talkative.
Using her considerable charm she had found out quite a bit about dear old Nelda. Oh and the information was truly delicious too. It was time to plot and plan, oh this is going to be fun!

Bobby had an ulterior motive for seeking out Dr Rodgers. After her betrayal with his paternity test, they had sat down and discussed it and he had accepted her reasons for informing their Captain at the time and apologized for his outburst. He needed to talk to her about the risks of a pregnancy with heart transplants, what dangers there were with the baby though the immune suppressants.
He was relieved to hear that SRL exposure in Heart transplant recipients had not reported any abnormalities in the fetus, although the risks of spontaneous miscarriages were higher.
After looking into Wallace's medical files she had confirmed that Nicole had run extensive tests prior to conception. In short there were still high risks that she could have a miscarriage. He also had to know if there was any possibility of damage to the child through the drugs she had given him. He thanked Dr Rodgers for her time and took the file on their victim from their case and returned to the 11th floor.
As he walked into the bullpen he noticed that Alex was seated with ADA Carver and their Captain. He took a moment to observe the other occupant in the room Dexter Morgan, who at this moment sat with his back to him. He noticed that he seemed to tense. He still wasn't sure just how it had come to be that he had turned up when he did. There were a lot of warning signals he got from this man, after placing the file from their case on his desk he entered the observation room.
Bedford hills Correctional Facility NY.
Nelda had spent the day in the infirmary tending to her patients. She had found out today that Nicole Wallace had become her cell mate for a reason; she was to keep an eye on her as she was pregnant and at a high risk for medical complications due to the heart transplant she had. The guard had also warned her about her new cellmate. She was sent back to her cell early to give it a once over as she would have to keep a extra vigilant eye open as people had a habit of dropping dead around Ms Wallace. She took out her scrapbook and started to look through her press clippings, which she had been collecting fervently ever since she arrived in jail. Wallace had rung a bell with her it didn't take her long to find the clipping she sought. So she also had a connection to Robert!
Half an hour later Nicole returned to her cell just in time to see Nelda hide something under her mattress. With a smile she ignored her and switched on the kettle to make her-self a cup of herbal tea, then decided out of politeness to make one for Nelda also. After all she needed to open a door and get her to talk.
To her surprise Nelda smiled at her as she took the offered cup. No time like the present she thought and started a conversation.
"So, how long have you been incarcerated here then?" She asked politely and took a sip of her tea.
Nelda delayed her reply by also taking a nip of the tea, she was a bit suspicious of it after what the guard told her. She saw that Wallace had noticed her reluctance and was literally beaming at her.
"Nearly 7 years." She replied and then poured the rest of the tea down the toilet.
"Tut Tut what a waste of a good cup of tea, if I was paranoid I would think that you didn't trust me. What on earth have they told you?" She admonished Nelda.
Nelda didn't bother answering her; instead she asked a question of her own.
"How many months pregnant are you? You took a big risk getting pregnant, for you and the baby. How does its father feel about you being in prison or did you kill him also?"
Nicole smiled and shook her head.
"My my you're a self righteous one aren't you now. I take it they have made you my own personal nurse, how sweet of them." She decided to start part one of her plan.
"This baby was well planned, my dear. As soon as my lawyer throws out these preposterous charges against me, I will be marrying the child's father. Not that it is any of your business."
Nelda's curiosity wouldn't allow her to not ask one more question.
"Who is the father?"
With a sweet smile Nicole answered her.
"It's Detective Robert Goren from the Major Case Squad."
