Greg looked at Morgan eyed open. He didn't know what to say. Morgan was hopeful. Her eyes filled with that feeling. Hope. She waited for minutes for him to say something about the bomb she just had dropped, but Greg said nothing, he just kept staring at her.
Morgan began to feel insecure, she let go of his hand and sat further on the bed. Greg still didn't react. He oppened his mouth a couple of time, but said nothing. His eyes were now focused on the spot Morgan was previous in.
"You are not going to say anything?"- Morgan asked, sadness and disappointment clear in her voice. Greg snapped his attention to her, he grabbed her both of her hands and immediately spoke.
"Morgan... this is amazing. Oh my God."- Morgan's attention was back on Greg. He pulled her for a hug and immediately, Morgan embraced him back, felling his scent.
"You're happy about the baby?"- Morgan questioned, still feeling insecured.
"Of course I am!"- Greg mumbled against her hair, planting a kiss bellow her ear lobe.
"You have no idea how happy I am that you're happy about the baby."- Morgan mumbled against Greg's chest. He chuckled and gave her a kiss on the top of the head. Next, Greg let go of her and grabbed her chin, so that their eyes could connect.
"Why wouldn't I be happy? I always wanted a kid and you as her or his mom, is perfect."- Greg confessed putting a hand on Morgan's belly. She caressed his cheek with one hand, while the other rested on top of his. She leaned and gave him an innocent kiss on the lips.
"Greg, what are we going to do?"- Morgan sighed looking at the bed sheets. -"Daniel, and all…"
"Morgan, listen to me."- Greg said gaining Morgan's attention once more. -"Daniel, is going to face charges for beating his wife who is also a CSI and the only daughter of the sheriff. I'm here, Nick, Russell, Finn, Sara, your father, we are all here to protect you, even if you don't want to be protect."- Greg whispered with a chuckle, trying to ease the mood.-"He is not going to hurt you anymore. I promise."
Morgan gave him another kiss on the lips.-"Okay."- She agreed mumbling against his lips. Greg smiled and gave her another strong hug.
"Now you need to rest."- Greg said lifting from the bed. Morgan grabbed his wrist and pulled him for another kiss.
"Stay. Please."- Greg sighed with a small smile on his lips.
"I'll go talk to everyone and I'll be back in 5, okay? By the way…Do you want to be the one to tell them about the pregnancy?"- Morgan hesitated at his question.
"No. I can't face them now. Please, you do it."
With a last nod, Greg left the room and headed to the waiting room. There, everyone were sitting, except Eckley who was passing from one side to another. When the other CSI's spotted Greg, they immediately got up from their seats.
"How is she?"- Nick asked.
"She's fine. Just tired from all of this."- Greg said. He sighed and looked at everyone in the small waiting room. Only now he realized that they were the only ones there. -"I have something to tell you guys. Morgan doesn't want to face you just yet, so she asked me to tell you."- Everyone shot curious looks at Greg and waited for him to continue.-"Morgan…Morgan is pregnant."
…
AN: Just want to say that I have no idea how long a person can go to prison for domestic abuse in US. Okay, proceed with the reading ((:
The next months were a blur.
Daniel was arrested and convicted.
After Greg had delivered the news, everyone was happy for the couple, except for Eckley. Well, he wasn't exactly unhappy, let's just say he wasn't really trilled.
"You got my daughter pregnant? I'm going to kill you Sanders!"
That day was a little bit hectic. After punching Greg's jaw, twice, he hugged him and congratulated the CSI. The rest of the team responded very well to the news. Especially Nick and Sara, who were really happy to finally see the younger man with the woman he loved.
Morgan and Daniel signed the divorce papers. He was convicted for six months.
Morgan was now five months pregnant. After she was discharge from the hospital, Greg offered to take her to his house, which was now hers as well.
…
When Greg got home after another shift at the lab, the first thing he noticed after taking his coat off, was the smell of pancakes, bacon and eggs. Immediately, he went to the kitchen to find Morgan making breakfast.
"Good morning beautiful."- He whispered into her hear, sneaking a hand on her waist, pulling her back to his chest. Morgan smiled and turned around.
"Good morning. You're home earlier. What happened?"
"Nothing happened, Russell just told me to come home earlier to my beautiful bride and unborn children, that someone doesn't want to know the gender."- She grinned at his words and kissed him full on the lips.
"We are going to wait until he or she is born."- Morgan stated giving Greg another kiss before returning to the pancakes. Greg lifted his hands in surrounded.
"Okay, okay. Got it. Hmm… I'm going to take a shower, I'll be right back in ten, okay?"- Morgan turned around from the sink and gave him a smile, nodding.
Fifteen minutes later, the two were eating breakfast on the kitchen table. There was a comfortable silence between them, until Greg decided to break it.
"Baby, there's something I want to talk to you about."
"What is it?"- Morgan asked, somehow alarmed.
"It's about Daniel. I know you don't want to talk about him, but let me finish."- Greg paused for a moment before Morgan could interrupted him. –"He's going to be released in two days. Due to good behavior. I don't know much about it. I just heard that from your father."
"I know."- Morgan simply replied. -"I talked with my lawyer today."- Greg grabbed her hand under the table and squeezed it. Morgan looked at him and offered a small smile.
"You know you don't need to be afraid, right? Everyone is here to protect you."
"I know."- Morgan responded with another smile that didn't reached her eyes. She got up from her chair and walked towards Greg's side. -"Let's go to bed, I'm still tired."- He got up as well and looked deeply into her eyes. Greg bent down and placed a kiss on her lips before placing a kiss on her swallow belly. He grabbed Morgan's hand and headed to the bedroom.
…
Bang, Bang
"NO!"
Bang, bang
"NO! GREG, NO!"- Morgan scream's filled the room. The silent that come next was even worst than those two bangs. She kneeled beside Greg's body. There was too much blood. It wouldn't stop.
With trembling hands, Morgan tried to stop the blending but nothing was helping.
She keep screaming for help, but no one came. She felt her body weakening. Her screams stopped. With a blurry vision, due to the tears that filled her eyes, Morgan looked at Greg's lifeless body and let out a last deafening scream before darkness came.
two hours before
"Greg! I'm home."- Morgan said once she entered the lobby.
"Hey."- Greg greeted her. -"What are you doing?"- He asked incredulous approaching her.-"You have to stop going to the supermarket without me."- Morgan rolled her eyes and kept walking towards the kitchen.
"It's just one bag, it's not like I'm carrying that much weight."- Morgan stopped to take her coat off. -"And besides you were a sleep and I didn't wanted to wake you up."
"Morgan, come on. We talked about this. You are seven months pregnant, you cannot just go outside to the supermarket by yourself."- Morgan smiled and gave him a peck on the lips.
"Greg, we talked about this."- She mimicked Greg's voice -"I'm perfectly capable of going to the supermarket, as I'm capable of going to work. Let's not have this conversation again, please."- Morgan pouted, fluttering her eyelashes.
"Don't pout."- Greg groaned. -"Okay, I will not speak about this anymore, but next time just... just warn me before you leave the house."- By now, Morgan had already emptied the bag. She turned around and kissed his lips once again.
"You worry too much, you know."
"Not my fault."
"Come on, let's watch some TV."- Morgan laughed, heading to the bedroom.
….
"Greg..."
"Hmm."
"Greg..."
"What?"
"Are you awake?"
"No."
"Good."- Morgan said sitting on the bed. -"I'm worried."- She confessed with a sigh. Greg rubbed his eyes and yawned. He sat next to her and kissed her temple.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know. It's just... I don't know. I'm extremely nervous and I have no reason for that."
"It's probably just the hormones, baby."- He kissed her lips slowly. Immediately, Morgan's body responded. She happily replied kissing him back. Greg licked her bottom lip, asking for entrance. Morgan's lips parted and a moan emerged from her throat.
"Crap."- She grumbled. Greg immediately gave her space.
"What is it?"
"He or she is kicking again."- Greg smiled and gave a kiss on her swollen belly.
"I love you... Luna or Brandon."- Greg mumbled against her belly. They had already decided if they had a girl she would be call Luna, if they had a boy he would be Brandon. -"And I love you."- He stated kissing her lips once again.
"I love you too."
KNOCK KNOCK
"Go get the door." -Morgan ordered. Seconds later, she listened the front door opening.
"What the hell?"- Morgan heard Greg screaming from the lobby, followed by the noise of something breaking. Quickly, she grabbed her gun and went to the corridor.
The sight in front of her made her heart stop for a second. Greg was on the ground with a bloody lip. Daniel was standing on the door with a gun on his hand. Greg rapidly stood on his feet in front of Morgan.
"Stay away from her."- Greg warned Daniel.
Daniel kept still on his place, he smiled mischievously and made a tsk tsk sound.
"I don't want to touch her. The bitch will die alone in hell. She'll burn alone. You are the one I want."- It all happened in seconds, Daniel lifted his weapon and pointed at Greg, and with a wink, he shot.
Bang, Bang
"NO!"
Bang, bang
This time, Morgan shot Daniel in the chest, she watched as his body fell on the ground.
"NO! GREG, NO!"- Morgan scream's filled the room. The silent that come next was even worst than those two bangs. She kneeled beside Greg's body. There was too much blood. It wouldn't stop.
With trembling hands, Morgan tried to stop the blending but nothing was helping.
She keep screaming for help, but no one came. She felt her body weakening. Her screams stopped. With a blurry vision, due to the tears that filled her eyes, Morgan looked at Greg's lifeless body and let out a last deafening scream before darkness came.
…
Beep Beep
"Baby girl, please, sleep."- Morgan implored the one year old toddler. Luna, ignored her mother's pleads and kept playing with Morgan's hair.
The little girl stretched her arms to Greg's bed. Morgan sighed and kissed her on the top of the head. Slowly, she sat on the chair next to the bed and sat Luna on the bed.
The last year was the happiest and the worst year of Morgan's life.
Greg survived. After hours and hours of surgery, the doctors told Morgan Greg had survived but he was in a coma.
After that everything happened. Daniel was dead and a month later she gave birth to a girl. Luna. A year after the accident Greg still haven't woke up. Everyday, Morgan would come with Luna to visit Greg. She would tell him how her day was and after a few hours, they would left.
Today wasn't different. The toddler was supposed to be napping, but she didn't wanted to. Now, sited on her father's bed, she played with the hospital sheets. Morgan grabbed Greg's hand and kissed his knuckles.
"Daddy."- She heard the little girl saying. It wasn't the first time, and every time her heart broke a little.
"Yes, baby girl, is daddy."- Morgan said kissing Luna's hair.
Suddenly, the beep from the machine increased and she felt a hand squeezing hers. She smiled and a single tear left her eye.
