Steve walked back to the waiting room where the group was waiting for him. The first person he saw was Danny and he made his way towards him.

Danny stood up and met Steve halfway. "How did it go?"

Steve shrugged his shoulders. "It went okay. They took four tubes of blood. Then Nick came in." Steve's lip twitched in an almost snarl when he said the name.

Danny led him to a chair away from the rest of the group and they sat down. "So what did they do?"

"Swabbed the inside of my cheek," he said. "I now know the meaning of cotton mouth."

Danny rolled his eyes. "Don't even get me started on cotton mouth."

This time Steve laughed and when he stopped he glanced out the waiting room and into Catherine's room. "Have they said anything about Catherine or the baby?"

"Catherine's back in a room. Her lawyer came and her parents are on their way," Danny said. "And the nurses would like to know what the baby's name is."

"I haven't even thought about that." Steve shrugged. "I guess Catherine and I should talk about that."

"Lizanne also wants to talk with you and Catherine." Danny added.

"I don't want to do anymore talking right now." Steve was clearly quite firm on that. "I just want to see my baby and try to get some sleep."

Danny nodded his head. "I understand. I'll go tell Lizanne." He stood up and walked back to the group while Steve left the waiting room and headed to the nursery.

Mary looked up when Danny joined them. "Where did Steve go?"

"Probably to see the baby," he said. "Then I'm going to try and convince him to get some sleep."

"Sleep, where?" Mary asked. "Not a free room here."

"I didn't even ask him. He'll probably go back to HQ since it's closer than the house."

Around three a.m. a man in a black suit and carrying a burgundy briefcase walked into the police station where Nick was. He lightly tapped on the front desk and waited for an officer to appear.

"Help you?" the officer asked as he walked to the desk

"I'm Justin Ambrose; Nick Taylor sent for me."

"Are you his lawyer?" the officer asked

"I wasn't aware that he needed one," Justin replied, "I was just told to meet him here."

"Well, he's in a cell and the only one who can see him right now is his lawyer."

"Then I'm his lawyer."

The officer gave the man a weary look. "Right this way Mr. Ambrose." He stepped from behind the desk and walking to where the cells were. "Heads up, Taylor; you have a visitor."

Nick sat up from his lying position on the bench and looked at Justin. "You got here fast."

"I was already in town." Justin walked to the bars. "When your mother called at 2:30 in the morning saying I need to meet you here, I got worried." He looked Nick over. "By the looks of things, you look like you could talk to someone."

Nick sighed. "I'm in a big mess, Justin."

The lawyer looked at the officer. "Is there a room my client and I can talk privately?"

The officer nodded his head, unlocked the cell then turned and walked to an interrogation room. "In here." Nick and Justin walked into the room and sat in the chairs around the table. The officer closed the door and walked back to the front desk.

"How did you end up here?" Justin asked

"It's a long story and has to do with Steve, Catherine and the baby." Nick explained.

"Just start from the beginning," Justin said. He opened his briefcase and pulled out a pad of paper and pen.

Nick rubbed a hand through his hair and sighed. "Remember when mom called and told you that Catherine was pregnant?" Justin nodded his head and wrote something on his pad. "Well, it seems that she was with someone while she was with me and now she doesn't know who the father of her baby is."

Justin held his pen in mid air and looked at Nick. "So she cheated on you?"

"Technically, she cheated on Steve with me," Nick corrected.

"How long has this been going on?"

"Months, probably our entire relationship," Nick replied.

"And when did you find out?"

"At the beginning of this week, I guess."

"Paternity test?" Justin asked. He continued writing.

Nick nodded his head. "Did it a couple hours ago."

"We should know by the end of the week then," he said. "Now, how did you end up here?"

"Catherine's parents got her a lawyer and she signed over custody of the baby to Steve," Nick said. "She told him that he was the father and that she didn't want to keep the baby."

"Does he know that Catherine cheated on him?"

"He found out about the same time I did," Nick replied. "But she's been living with him for the last month."

Justin nodded his head and wrote something else down. "Now back to how you ended up here…."

"Danny, Steve's partner, said that they were getting some big shot lawyer and that if I was smart, I'd get myself one as well," Nick said. "I don't know who I can trust here, so I went to some legal aid people and asked for help. They suggested I talk with Catherine and try to get her to change her mind about whatever papers she signed." Justin nodded his head and Nick continued. "Earlier today, er, last night, she told me she wasn't going to change her mind. I got mad, hit her and she fell…on her stomach. The police came, arrested me and took Catherine to the hospital."

Justin looked at Nick. "Have you seen Catherine since?" Nick shook his head. "Well, I'll go to the hospital and see how she is."

"And the baby…if she's had her yet," Nick added.

"I'll check on the baby too," Justin said. "Is there anything else about this situation I need to know about?"

"Well I don't know," Nick said. "Lizanne, the big shot lawyer, and Robert, that's Steve's lawyer, came about an hour before I was able to call my mom."

Justin looked at Nick with a serious expression. "Did they talk to you? Did you tell them anything?"

"They talked but I didn't say anything," Nick said. "There was another officer in here as well. They all seemed to be friendly like."

Justin nodded his head, and wrote more notes on his pad of paper. He looked at Justin as he put his stuff away. "Don't worry about this. I'll be dealing with it now. In the mean time, don't talk to Catherine's lawyer, Steve or his lawyer or anyone else without me," Justin said. "In fact, just stay in the cell and don't say anything until I come back in the morning." Nick nodded his head, stood up as well and followed Justin out of the room. An officer led Nick back to his cell as Justin walked out of the station and to his car to go to the hospital.

Mary found Steve sitting in the nursery next to the plastic bassinet that the baby was in. He was holding a bottle in her mouth and watching her suckle from it. Steve looked up and smiled some when Mary lightly knocked on the door. "Can you believe the nurse said she's strong enough for me feed her like this?"

Mary shook her head. "That's hard to believe," she said, "and she's so small."

"She's a little over five pounds." Steve said. His eyes and voice were full of awe. "I couldn't leave without getting the chance the feed her."

"Where exactly are you planning on going?" Mary asked. "We live quite a distance from here."

Steve shrugged his shoulders. "I'd probably go back to HQ and crash on my couch."

"That's what Danny said he was going to try and get you to do." Mary smiled at her brother and then gave him a hug. "I'll leave you to bonding with your daughter."

"Her name's Keilana Denise." Steve said.

"Mom would love that you chose her name for the baby's middle name," Mary said. "I'll tell the others." She turned and walked out of the nursery and back to the waiting room.

Chin and Kono finally arrived at the hospital, after stopping at Steve's place for a change of clothes for him and Danny.

"Where's Steve?" Kono asked.

"With Keilana," Mary said.

Chin smiled. "Adored One; I'd say that's a fitting name for her."

"She has our mom's middle name. Keilana Denise."

"That's pretty," Kono said. "It has a nice flow to it. Keilana Denise McGarrett."

"Aren't you being a bit presumptuous that her last name will be McGarrett?" Catherine's lawyer, Cole Paulson said. "After all, she could end up being a Taylor."

"Bite your tongue!" Danny growls and shoots the man a look. "That little girl is a McGarrett."

"You keep telling yourself that." Cole said

"What exactly are you doing here?" Mary finally asked. The man had been sitting in on their conversations for going on 30 minutes. "This area is for family and friends only."

"Catherine asked me to be here. I'm her lawyer."

"If you haven't noticed, Catherine's in the room, not out here." Mary said

"Oh, I was just leaving." Cole walked from the room.

The group continued to talk until Steve returned from the nursery. He walked into the waiting room and cleared his throat. The group looked up and there were a sea of congratulations as he walked into the room. Steve smiled, took a seat next to Danny and thanked everyone.

"So what were we talking about?" he asked

"Nothing too important. Stuff about the baby, how paternity results were going to come out…." Mary said with a shrug.

"Court," Danny, Chin and Kono added at the same time

"Where you may end up going," a voice behind them announced. The group turned around and looked at the man who was standing in the entrance to the waiting room. "The name's Justin Ambrose. Counsel for Nick Taylor."

"I'd say this is a pleasant surprise," Lizanne said, "but it's not."

"Lizanne, such harsh words for your former employer," Justin said with a leer

A chill ran down Lizanne's back. "You are scum, Justin and you should have been disbarred."

Justin gave a hearty laugh. "Not when you're as distinguished as I am."

Steve looked at Lizanne. "You know him?"

"Unfortunately," Lizanne sighed. "It was because of him I dropped criminal law and went into family law."

"The criminal lawyers would have eaten you up for desert, Lizanne," Justin said. "But that was in the past. Let us focus on what's going on now." Justin sat in a chair placing his brief case at his feet. "My client would like to see the baby first thing in the morning. Until the paternity of the child is determined, no name is to be put on the birth certificate."

"Too late for that," Steve said. "Her name is Keilana Denise."

"Correction, until tomorrow morning, her name is Baby Jane," Justin said. "If she is Nick's daughter, he should be allowed to name her."

Lizanne folded her hands and placed them in her lap. Danny had seen that move before. She was not pleased and was trying to keep herself under control. "Anything else?"

"Oh, trust me, you don't want me to go into the list of complaints I have against you and Robert," Justin said. "Trying to talk, I mean intimidate someone in jail without their lawyer present…" he made a tsk'ing sound and shook his head in mock dismay. "I thought I taught you better than that."

Lizanne rolled her eyes. "If anything, I learn from the examples set in front of me."

Justin gave a smooth smile. "One last thing, don't try to leave with the child," Justin said looking at Steve. "It's against the law to kidnap."

"You'd be wise to tell that to Catherine too," Steve said. "She's right down the hall."

Justin stood and gave a curt nod. "That's exactly what I plan on doing." He walked out of the waiting room and headed to Catherine's to see if she was still awake.

"Well, I don't know about you," Lizanne said as she stood up, "but there's a bed with my name on it. And I'm going to need to be at the top of my game to go against him."

"Speaking of beds…." Danny said as he turned to Steve, "Come on Pops. Let's get you to HQ so you can crash on the couch for a few hours."

Steve nodded his head and smiled. He looked at everyone in the room, then back to Lizanne. "Okay. Lizanne…thank you."

Lizanne smiled and continued out of the room, Robert following behind them.
