I'm afraid the person won't be revealed for a few chapters, so you'll have to keep speculating!! A little humour to lighten the mood.

Sara POV:
After spending the day with Catherine yesterday, and all the visitors had gone, Lindsey and I stayed at Nick's as he was working. He did say though we could stay there as long as we wanted while we find somewhere else. So now I'm on my way the following morning to pick up Catherine from the hospital. Gil's let me have the next few days off and I've let Lindsey have the day off from school, so she can spend it with her Mom.
I take a glance at Lindsey, she's still in yesterday's clothes and so am I as we haven't been allowed back in the house yet, as Warrick and Greg are still processing the scene. They have all pulled doubles to work the case; I don't know what I'd do without my three brothers.
'Linds, what do you say we pull a little prank on your Mom?' I see her look at me with her eyes gleaming; I can almost hear the cogs whirring in her head.
'Yeah that would be so cool and funny. What were you thinking of doing?' I know we're just as bad as each other, two kids.
'How about we tell her the doctor has told us that she can't go home today? You know how much she hate's hospitals.'
'This is going to be fun. Can I tell her though, can I?' I can tell she's excited when she starts to repeat things.
'You sure can kiddo.' As I park up the car, we get out; Lindsey grabs my hand immediately as we walk through the hospital.

We're just about to enter Cat's room, but first we had to tell the nurse what we were planning, just in case she heard any screaming. She thought it was hilarious, after just one night she'd been on the wrong end of Cath's temper more than once. I give Lindsey a little wink before entering. Cath is sat on the side of the bed, in her clothes looking like she could run out any minute.
'Hey baby, how you feeling today?' I ask lovingly as I go and give her a chaste kiss.
'I'm ok, still got a bit of a cough though. I just want to get out of here though.' She returns my kiss but more passionately. I sit down next to her. Then Lindsey pipes up.
'Mom, why are you in your clothes? And why are you out of bed you should be resting? Come on; let's get you back into bed.' She takes her eyes away from me to look at Lindsey. I try hard not to laugh.
'Linds, what are you on about? I'm allowed out today. Remember, that's why you're here so early.' Lindsey shakes her head.
'No your not, me and Sara have just spoken to the doctor and they said you have to stay in another night.' I don't know how she's doing this, holding a completely straight face. Then I feel Catherine's eyes aimed directly at me. Oh shit. She's got her mouth hanging open, like she's about to scream.
'Babe, is this true?' I can never lie to Catherine when I look into her eyes so I stare down at the floor.
'Yeah, sorry babe. We just popped in before I have to take Lindsey to school. So we're going to be off now, but we'll be back later, I promise.' With that I stand up and give her another chaste kiss, Lindsey goes and gives her a hug, and we walk out the room. As we leave the room I hear a shout.
'SARA SIDLE, GET BACK HERE NOW.' At this Lindsey and I burst into laughter outside the door, wiping away the tears that are falling. I'm laughing so hard that my ribs are hurting.
But we must have been laughing hard as I hear the door open behind me. I see Lindsey look behind me and she immediately stops laughing. I stop laughing too as I turn round to see Catherine standing there.
'Why are you two laughing?' I take a look down at Lindsay and she proceeds.
'Sara thought it would be funny if we told you that you couldn't go home to see your reaction. And it was. It was all Sara's idea I swear. You can go though.' I give Lindsey a sharp look. 'Snitch,' I mutter under my breath. Catherine just looks at me and smiles, she's not mad. I take her hand and we walk out the hospital. As I open the passenger door, she stands on tiptoes and comes to my ear.
'By the way, you're not getting any for a fortnight.' She says in her sexiest voice as she gets in the car. I just stand there for a couple of minutes. Well that wasn't the plan!!
