Chapter 14.
Calleigh was trying to get some paper work done at Firearms. In fact, she felt like she could never get done. Looking at the pile in front of her, she knew she had to get it all done with by the end of the day, as she would start her maternity leave, Julia's orders, as she didn't want anything happening to her sweetheart and baby girl.
Calleigh signed out another form, before she put it back in the case file. The radio was softly playing in the background. As she got up to put the case file back in the book shelf, she started to dance and sing along to the song: "That girl is a bad girl..."
Horatio looked at her dancing as he came in, and made his presence noticeable: "Calleigh."
Calleigh startled, turned around and paused the music just for a second, and said: "Hey, Horatio.
"Hey, how are you and the little one?" he asked.
"We're just fine, I think."
"You think?" he exclaimed, concern immediately washing over him.
"She hasn't been moving for a couple of days," Calleigh admitted. She hadn't told Julia anything. "I hope she's OK."
"She's probably just fine. She actually has less space to move around. I mean, you're after all 35 weeks pregnant."
"I guess you're right. Oh, is that the paper I asked for?"
"Yeah," he said, handing it to her. "Now I could better get moving to the new crime scene. A woman called in a horrible screaming."
Calleigh nodded. "Bye," she said, watching him leave. She wasn't allowed to go to crime scenes anymore, not since she had hit twelve weeks. Horatio's orders. She hated being stuck at the lab all the time, but at the same time she knew it was for her own safety and her baby's.
She turned the music back on and sang along: "I've seen that type before... She's so- Oh My- OUCH!" Calleigh gasped as she felt a sharp pain coursing through her body and screamed out in pain as she sank down on the floor holding on to her belly.

"But Julia I'm telling you I don't want an all pink nursery!" Calleigh argued. She was about seventeen weeks pregnant now and it was gradually showing a bit more.
"Come on, Calleigh. It's going to be a girl!"
"Yeah... But she's not gonna be an all pink girl!"
"What color do you want then?"
"I want- uhm- little white kittens on rainbow color background."
"Are you completely insane? That will look like a huge mess!"
"No, it won't. It'll look really cool."
"That would probably be great back in the 70's, but this is not a rainbow baby. Or do you want her to be a Hippie?"
"But it's a love baby!"
"Calleigh, I don't want a rainbow background with little white kittens!"
"And I don't want it to be all pink! I'm actually carrying our child and you can't even consider my idea for the nursery!"
"You're completely hopeless! You know, paint the room however you want! I don't care!" Julia yelled before storming out, leaving Calleigh on the verge of crying.

"OWWWWW!" Calleigh screamed out in pain again, thinking, 'This is too early... You aren't supposed to come already.' Tears of pain and panic were falling from her eyes, still hoping someone was hearing her through the soundproof walls.

"I'm sorry, sweetheart," said Julia later the same night, as she crept up into bed with Calleigh.
"I'm sorry, too, I didn't mean to- We can paint the room pink," said Calleigh.
"How about pink with little white kittens then?"
"I like that."
"Good, we'll start on that tomorrow then."
"Mhhmm, and we need to get a crib and toys, too."
"Of course. And we need something else, too, that I have thought about for a while."
"What?" Calleigh said, turning around in the embrace.
"I want to buy you an engagement ring."
"Are you saying what I think you're saying? Are you asking me to-"
"Do you want to marry me, or is it too soon?"
"I do, but I want my figure back first."
"You really do want-"
"I do. God, I love you so much..."
"And I you obviously."
"Make love to me."
"Your wish is my command," said Julia, kissing her lover gently.
