Sorry for the delay but I now have finally updated the story. Here's chapter 4.

Calleigh had been hiding her pregnancy for another month but knew she couldn't do that for much longer. Her stomach had developed a small, barely noticable bump. Fortunately nobody had noticed but she knew that eventually she was going to have to tell James. Tell him everything.

She stretched her neck as she continued to examine the bullet grazings. Her eyelids became heavy as she hadn't had much sleep in the past days and her body craved for sleep. So, without giving it much of a thought, she rested her head on the table and was quickly asleep.

„Calleigh, did you compare the bullets from the Rob-" Ryan stopped when he looked up. Calleigh was sleeping on the table. Ryan couldn't help but smile at how adorable and beautiful she looked. Her blonde hair surrounded her face like a halo and she had a very content look on her face. He thought back on the last time he had seen her sleeping – and quickly dissolved the thought.

„Calleigh..." he whispered and gently touched her face with his fingertips.

She sighed at it and murmured quietly, „Ryan..."

He wasn't sure what to do. But he knew she couldn't sleep on the desk and gently, very gently shook her.

Calleigh unwillingly opened her eyes and looked hazily at him. Once she understood where she was, she jerked upwards and tried to look energetic.

„Ryan! What are you doing here?"

He smiled at her attempt of hiding tiredness but decided not to comment on it. „I just wondered if you had the comparison on my last case."

She gave him a puzzled look.

„The Robinson case?"

„Oh, right! No, I haven't found time yet. I'll get on it right away."

But he had noticed her weariness and said, „Maybe you should go home. You don't look too good."

„I'm fine," she snapped and gave him a warning look. She hated when people asked that.

„Are you sure?" Ryan, on the other hand, was concerned.

Calleigh sighed and turned to him with a small smile. „I'm fine, just a bit tired. Now get back to work and let me do mine."

Ryan raised his hands as in a sign of surrender and left.

However, he didn't feel too good about it. He knew Calleigh well enough to leave her alone and not ask questions but she had been acting a bit strange lately. Skipping meals, chaning moods quickly and wearing a very plastered smile. And she most definitely hadn't had decent sleep for a long time. Something was going on and he didn't like it one bit.

Calleigh finally ended her shift and made it home. She was tired as hell but she couldn't go to sleep right away. At first she needed to do what had to be done. Tell James about the baby.

He was sitting in the living room, watching TV and greeted her with a quick „Hi, Cal" before focusing his attention on the TV again.

She took a deep breath and sat next to him, ready to spill out everything.

„James."

„Hm?" he gazed at her, a bit bothered that he couldn't watch TV any more.

Calleigh looked down. „I need to tell you something. Something really important."

„Okay." His attention was still divided between Calleigh and the TV. And it bothered her.

„James, look at me."

He gave her a bit irritated look. „What?"

„I'm pregnant." Calleigh decided to spill it right out.

She watched him listen and noticed his expression change as he really understood the meaning of her words.

„You're pregnant? How?"

„I thought you have mastered the technical details."

„That's not what I meant. I thought you were on pills?"

„I am. Was."

„Then how come you are expecting?"

„James, I don't know. Birth control is not a hundred per cent certain and the fact is that I am pregnant. I really do not know why I got pregnant but there's nothing we can do about it now!"

Calleigh felt her irritation grow and she hadn't yet made it to the most complicated part. But James seemed to ease up a little.

„Cal, I understand that, relax. I am happy about this baby even though I'm not expressing it correctly. This is just a bit sudden. But I promise you, I will not abandon you or this child."

He hugged her and Calleigh felt his warmness and sincerity. She just couldn't tell him the child could not have been his, so she didn't say anything but just let him hug her. Although she knew she would regret it, she decided that her unborn child will consider James as a father, no matter who it biologically is.

Kind of short but this is just the beginning. Please review as well when you read it!
