A few weeks later Eric and Calleigh were at home finishing up some reports for Horatio.
She rubs her stomach and runs into the bathroom. "Baby are you ok" he asks while walking closer to the bathroom.
"Cal," and knocks on the door.
She doesn't respond and he opens the door to find Calleigh on the floor. "CAL," Eric yells. "Wake up sweetheart."
He nudges her and runs to the phone to call H, "Horatio it's Eric. Get to the hospital now. Cal passed out. I'm taking her there now."
He hangs up and calls the hospital, "This is CSI Eric Delko. I need an ambulance at 1167 John Wayne Drive. I have a female officer down."
He hangs up and notices that her eyes are open, "OMG Cal. You scared me nearly to death. I thought something bad happened to you."
She tries to sit up and says, "Eric it hurts. What's wrong with me?"
Eric tries to sit her in his arms and rubs her stomach, "I donno baby but the ambulance just arrived."
The EMT's walk in with a stretcher and one of them asks, "OK what's the problem?"
He helps them slide her on the stretcher and says, "I was doing dishes when I heard something from the bathroom. I walked in and found her on the floor breathing but passed out."
The ambulance drives off and the EMT's work on her.
They arrive to the ER and the nurse got her information and escorted Calleigh to the back room.
Eric paced around the waiting room hoping that someone would tell him what was going on with Calleigh. He knew it had to be something bad because the Calleigh he knew wouldn't just be found in that condition.
When he thought he couldn't take it any longer he headed for the double doors of the back room where she was.
Before he could even make a move a doctor stopped him. "I'm sorry mister but unless you are family you can't go back there.."
"I am her family. I'm her boyfriend.." he said worried.
A security guard steps in and got into his face, "Well being her boyfriend don't cut it. You just have to wait like the other people in the room."
"Look I work for MDPD," he said showing his badge.
"And this mean what to me," the guard says crossing his arms.
"That Ic an go back there.." Eric stared at him getting more angry by the second.
The security guard started to get defensive, "well like I said man if you are not related then you have to sit your ass down."
Eric scoffed at him, "or see because you couldn't cut it as a real policeman you want to take your frustration out on me because I'm a real a cop."
As Eric was talkin' to the the rent-a-cop he saw the nurse come to him..
"Excuse me are you Eric Delko?"
"Yes I am," he replied worried.
"Well Ms. Duquesne is asking for you will you follow me please," she says while they both walk back to the room.
He grabs a chair, sits down, grabs her hand with all his might, rubs her forehead and says as his mouth began to quiver, "don't worry Cal. I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere sweetie."
She turns her head to him and squeezes his hand, "I'm sorry I've put you-."
Eric puts his finger on her mouth and says, "shh. You didn't put me through anything Cal."
Eric turns to the nurse and asks, "so what's going on?" The nurse smiles at him and says, "I'm sorry Mr. Delko. I was instructed not to tell you. Your girlfriend has insisted she tell you herself."
He turns to her and says, "OK Cal. What's going on?"
She smiles at him while holding his hand and says, "don't worry everything's OK. I'm just tired from working so hard."
Just then H walks in the room and hugs her, "Hey Cal. I heard over the radio that you were here. What's going on?"
Cal smiles at him, "nothing major H. I'm just tired from working almost everyday since I joined the team."
"OK Cal," he says grabbing a chair and sitting by her. "Then for the next 2 weeks you may have off. Eric, I expect you to be with her every minute until she is better and that's an order."
Eric grabbed Cal's hand tighter, "yes sir. Thank you."
Later on Cal is released from the hospital and they head home.
Before they could enter the house they hear noises coming from the living room.
They open the door and notice everybody there.
"What the hell is going on," Eric asks.
Horatio steps forward and looks at Calleigh.
She nods her head to give him permission to tell Eric her big news.
"Eric," H begins while raising his glass. "You know how I always talk about how I missed out on Kyle's childhood," he asked smiling at Eric.
"Yeah," he said turning to Cal with a confused look on his face.
"Well let's just say you won't be missing on anything in your child's life including when he or she starts crawling, walking, and talking about a yr from now"
He stared at Cal and she nodded her head, "yes. I'm about two weeks."
He picks her up and twirls her around like a high school boy in love, for the first time "I can't believe I'm gonna be a daddy."
Cal wraps her arms around his neck and kisses him hard on the lips, "you're gonna be great at it. I can tell."
They continue with their congratulations and party together.
"Cal are we gonna well you know later on," he whispered while holding her tight.
"Of course but it's gonna be better then when you got me pregnant Eric."
Just then Alexx walks up to them hugging them and says, "hey I know a good obstetrician. She was mine when I had my kids and I know she'll take really good care of you. Just tell her I recommended her to you."
As they walk out of the kitchen talking about her impending pregnancy Tim smirked, "well that's one way to get Delko to committed to one women," he said with a dumb smirk on his face.
Just then Eric walks up to them hearing what Speed said, "Shut up Speed you're just jealous because you haven't found your Calleigh yet."
"Hey," Speed says, "just because you found your Calleigh doesn't mean that you should act and talk like her."
"Hey she's having my baby and living with me," Eric says while smiling. "She's the best thing to happen to me since I got the job at the lab." He puts his hand on Speed's shoulder and hugged him hard saying, "Don't be so hard on yourself. You'll find your Calleigh."
