the usual life of the CSIs becomes very tiring with the new psycho in the city. Even your worst colleague is a precious partner when it comes to catching a killer. Plus personal problems and joy of few makes everything harder and some are back in tr...
It's been 6 weeks since they came back from NY.Speed was trying to catch some sleep on the couch in the break room. He was just about to fall asleep when the door opened with the swing and he heard ever laughing Eric and Tyler "...so whos gonna be supervised?" "Idk... Probably me". "There are always two, aren't they?" "So maybe...Speed.He's perfect for this research. Idk. " "What about Speed,huh? " Speed sat down abruptly. They both jumped. "Gee Speed... You scared us. " "Scared you? Was just trying to get some sleep. So..." he combed his hair with his hand... "What are you talking about?" "Well...there's a psychologist, a profiler. Horatio's friend". "What about Speed then?" "Well. She's coming to help us with the guy. In return Horatio gives her a pair of CSIs to deal with. Psychoterapy I mean. " "Oh... Like lab rats?" "Kinda "Eric smiled "Sounds just silly " Speed poured himself some coffee. "You didn't see her working. She's great. Really. We probably need her as the guy is still out there". "When is she coming? " Tyler asked sipping his tea "Tomorrow I heard. So...let's see who's gonna be the victim.it's probable gonna be you." "I'm not gonna do that actually. I'm not a lab rat and don't need a therapy. And I've got a pregnant wife at home, feeling tired with my long working hours". "It' s gonna be quite soon,huh?" "About 10 weeks. Yeah. Soon." "How's she?. " "Ok. You should visit us sometimes, Eric." "I know. I will. I just work as much as you." "I know." The door opened and H. Stepped in. "Speed? I want to talk to you. And you too, Eric. My office, in 5 minutes." He left. "Hey...you were right mr. Prophet" Jenssen laughed." Good luck with your therapy then". They both were climbing the stairs when Speed said" I'm not gonna be a lab rat. " "Oh come on man. She's really nice. You'll like her." "No way. "They entered "H.?" "I wanted to talk to you about one thing. As you know Eric Laura Kern is coming. She's gonna profile the guy for us. In return..." "...You're gonna let her take us" Eric laughed. Speed stood with a gloomy face. "...Yes. I hope you don't mind". "I don't " Eric said. "I do actually" Speed said angrily." I don't wanna be researched." "Well...I can't make you of course...but I can ask for it. It would be good for you and for her." "H. I don't need a therapy. " "I said that too then. When you died. But she helped me a lot. And so she did for Eric. So I can only ask you.Just one session ok?" "Ok. I'll think about it" Speed nodded. He was angry at himself but it was hard to refuse H. after all he's done for him. "Don't worry. She's nice. Won't empty this great mind of yours" Eric laughed. "It's already half-empty" "Very funny Delko. Let's get to work." When he came back home in the evening, Courtney was sleeping. The white top he liked so much was a bit wee for her now. It was hot but she was still wrapped in her fave blanket. He never actually understood that. This love for blankets.

He came quietly and kissed her. She sat up at once,scaring him. "Tim? What time is it? " "7 pm." " It's late...want something to eat"? she got up "I'm too tired to eat baby. How are you?" "Fine. Come on, eat with me. You're so skinny... Look at me. I'm so big." Speed looked at her and smiled. "Yeah, I must say you are. Don't worry. You'll look like before when Ava is born. " "The doctor said it's probably gonna be earlier " Speed dropped his fork "Gee... It was today... I forgot I'm sorry... I had a lot of work." "Don't worry. Nothing new actually. She's doing fine. I'm 18 kilos heavier... Doc says we should be ready in 7 weeks or so". "Oh...I guess we need to buy some things, don't we?" "Maybe... How's work?" "Oh...long story. The profiler is coming to help us." "Laura Kern? "She smiled. "A nice lady. I was in psychotherapy with her 3 years ago." "Oh yeah? Never said a word". "What about? Just one time. Who's the lucky one this time?" "...me and Eric." Courtney laughed "you're gonna have fun I guess." "We surely are." They ate, had a quick shower and fell asleep together on the couch. He preferred to sleep in front of her now, as he could feel the baby moving, even when she was sleeping. He couldn't understand his feelings. He was protective and loved her, but still had mixed feelings about the child. He cared for it of course but didn't feel that fatherhood pride and joy. He only hoped it will come naturally with the baby being born. That's why he was sleeping that way. To feel the human being, hidden from him. He didn't say a word to Court as it would probably hurt her but he was a bit scared of that change. Not of her body changing- she had a lot more body than before- but of everything new. He finally fell asleep. He was dreaming of the day they were together without her pregnant. Early morning he felt bad about it. Left quickly not to face her. Entering the trace lab he saw Belmontes leaving. "Lotta work Speedle. Did part of it. Rest is for you. " He nodded happy to have something to occupy with. At 9 somebody tapped his arm. "Speed? "He took off his headphones "yeah,H?" "This is Laura Kern." Speed saw an older lady standing next to H. So... That's her? Looks more like a granny than a scary profiler. He greeted her "Nice to meet you. Tim Speedle." "Nice to meet you too. I've heard we're gonna talk some more". Speed looked surprised at H. Standing behind Mrs Kern, nodding him. "...yeah. So I've heard". "So... In 3 hours?" "Damn you're fast ! Sorry... I didn't want to... " "It's ok to be sincere. See you soon. " She left. With H.sending him a stormy look. Well...what a great day it's gonna be.
