Chapter 6-Who�s Your Daddy.
A month later Jim and Nevada were still seeing each other and enjoying life to it�s fullest. Nevada had transferred into Las Vegas the first of July. She and Jim had started seeing each other personally the first of August at the picnic. This waw arw around the last week in August.

Nevada had also transferred out of Dispatch and into Homicide. She had her pick of where she wanted to go and she wanted to be with Jim. The Estrada/Cordoba case had hit a snag and gone cold again. Jim was worried that they would run into him at some point but he thought that Nevada was right. What could he do in public and why would he risk it? It was after he spotted her Jim was worried about.

Nevada had been under the weather with a stomach virus. But she hung in going to work and feeling pretty bad. But Nevada had pretty much a cast iron stomach. So far she had managed to keep her cookies but that was about to change.

She walked into Jim office about noon looking a little pale and with a hint of green as far as Jim could tell. He looked up at her.

�Well, well if it�s not the Unjolly Green Giantess. Honey you need to go home and get into bed. You look like��

�Brown and squishy? Si, I know.� She said. He tried not to chuckle at the comparison.

�You want me to take you?� He asked putting down his pen and getting up so as to put her in a chair before she fell down. �Sit down before you fall down.�

�Gracious.� She grumbled but with a weak smile attached.

�Well, am I going to take you home or am I going to throw you over my shoulder and take you home?� He asked.

�Promises, Promises.� She said still grumbling a little.

�Oh that�s more of a threat and a promise Honey. You have been sick for about a week and it�s not getting better. You want to go and see a Doc?� He asked.

�No, I do not have one as of yet here.� She said. �Jim, I think we may have more of a problem than just me having some sort of a stomach flu.�

�What do you mean?� He asked as he sat with her in front of his desk beside her in a chair.

�Wel did did not think it possible, but I think I may be with child.� She said. Jim looked a little shocked at first and then it dawned on him finally. He never asked her if she was on some sort of birth control. Nor did he buy condoms. It just didn�t click to ask her. He always believed that something was wrong with him. Having not fathered Ellie himself. They had been going at it too. Making up for lost time wasted, without. It had all been fantastic to both of them. But this was serious. He quickly turned the shock into a small smile.

�Well, I guess we should have been using something. Your 40 and still fertile I guess. But it�s not for sure and we will handle this together what ever it turns out to be.� Said Jim taking her hand.

She looked at him and started crying.

�Oh now don�t do that. Nevada we are human. It�s human to do that you know. If you are then we will handle it don�t worry.� He said. �Besides I didn�t think I could to tell you the truth. Plus I thought you might be on something like the pill.�

�No, I am not and why we failed to ask each other before we did all this��..�

�Well Honey it�s done. Hey, don�t worry.� He said.

�We do not have to keep it either. If you do not wish it.� Said Nevada though her tears.

�Nevada, look at me. I would never in a million years ask you to do that. I admit I�m a little old for diapers but I have beenre are and done that about 22 years ago. She wasn�t mine but I took care of her anyway. You think that I would want to do that to my own child? That I wouldn�t even ask you to��.Nevada, actually would it be a bad thing if you are?� He asked. He didn�t want to say the word abortion. It wasn�t even in his thoughts unless Nevada�s life was at stake.

�Under other circumstances no. But I am not only not married I�m over 40 and not married and possibly with child.� She said.

�But, I know it�s mine if you are. I know. Ok?� He asked. �Now get that though that beautiful head. We will handle this and we will do it together��..hey, look we did do this together now that I think on it. But we have to be sure first. We can go down and talk to Al Robbins. He can do a test to see. Then we can make plans. All this talk is getting us nothing but worrying the shit out of you. Me, well I�m kinda shocked but not really surprised since we didn�t take care of things. It�s both our faults, mine more than yours. I just didn�t think on it. I just didn�t believe that I could father a child actually. It�s never happened before.� He said.

�So you intend to do the right thing in this?� She asked.

�Why wouldn�t I? You know me better than that Nevada.� He said a little pissed off but he understood the hormones might be talking.

Nevada looked at him. �Si, I know you better than that. I am sorry. I am just frightened.� She Said.

�That�s good that you know I wouldn�t go off and leave you. Because I am not going to go off and leave you and the child. I�m a lot of things Nevada but I wouldn�t do that. Why don�t we go and get a test to see. That way we know and can make plans.� He said. �Please try and not be scared ok?�

�Well, all right. I suppose it would be better than stewing.� Said Nevada.

�It would Honey.� said Jim. �Besides you need to be taking better care of yourself and I need to be taking better car you you.�

She got up and he did too. He pulled her into an embrace. �It�s going to be ok really, either way it will. I promise you. I keep my promises don�t I?� he lifted her face to his to look at her in the eyes.

�Si you do.� Said Nevada. She saw that he wasn�t upset or pissed which was a good thing and that it was only concern for her as to his reaction.

Actually if the truth be known, Jim was thrilled at the mere thought of it. To have a child with Nevada pleased him actually. To know the child might have those beautiful eyes began to really thrill him but he calmed himself because it might just be the bug going around.

They walked down to Al Robbins office. He had his arm around her. They hadn�t really let anyone know they had been dating but the way they looked at each other left little to anyone�s imagination. Jim knocked on the do/P> /P>
�Come in.� Said Robbins who was just finishing lunch at his desk. �Hi Captain, Nevada what�s wrong?� He asked.

�Nevada is a little under the weather Doc.� Said Jim. �We also may have a small problem.�

�Oh and what would that be?� Asked Robbins knowingly almost guessing what they might be there for.

�Well��.� hesitated Jim. �We think Nevada might be pregnant.�

�Does the father know?� Robbins asked trying not to chuckle.

Jim cleared his throat. �Well, he knows and is concerned about Nevada. We want to know for sure so plans can be made.�

�It is best to know these things. Prenatal care is better knowing first thing. So, Nevada when was your last period?� Asked Robbins.

�July 21 this year.� she said as he got out a calendar.

�Looks like if you are normal with your cycle you got pregnant around the 6th of August. That�s about 5 weeks. But what I don�t understand is why the father is not here with you and Captain Brass is.� he said.

Jim took on a small bit of bashfulness and his face turned red. He cleared his throat again and spoke. �I�m the father.� He said.

�What I didn�t hear you?� Said Robbins yanking his chain a little.

�I�m the father.� Said Jim standing straighter and putting his arm back around Nevada.

�Well Captain, that�s a surprise but not a problem.� Said Robbins.

�Why would it be a problem. I admit it.� Said Jim.

�Oh I�m yanking your chain Jim so simmer down. I know this can�t be an easy thing. My wife and I started late too having kids. We have a teenager and then we have two more. One of them is only two so I understand. I just wanted to kid you a little. First let�s see if she is.� Said Robbins patting his shoulder. He went to a drawer and pulled out a pregnancy test. Then he gave her a cup. �I need a urine sample.�

Nevada took the cup and looked at it.

�Well, go on we need to find out.� Said Jim. �Do you not understand or are you in shock?�

�Both.� Said Nevada. �I revert to Spanish in things like this.�

�Pee in the cup bring it back and we will do the test.� Said Robbins.

�Ok.� she said as she walked out the door and went to the ladies room.

�You�re a lucky man Jim. I know what that kind of luck is like. You know my wife don�t you?� Asked Robbins smiling at him.

�Yes and your lucky yourself.� said Jim. �I love Nevada, Al.�

�I was going to ask you that. Have you told her?� He asked.

�I wasn�t sure if I should. It�s only been a month and the month has been wonderful. The best of my life so far.� Said Jim smiling. �Really, if she is, it�s not going to be a problem Al.�

�I figured as much already. For guys our age to have something that young and beautiful isn�t a likelihood. But we both got lucky.� Said Robbins as the men smiled at each other in agreement.

�Nevada is almost 41. I�m a little concerned about the age factor for her and concerned about the baby too if there is one.� Said Jim.

�Oh women have babies into their 50�s now with no problem. If you are afraid of Downs it doesn�t happen that often. She is at the two percent margin right now as to her age. I wouldn�t worry about that. There are risks with any pregnancy.� Said Robbins.

�Thanks Al.� said Jim. �I was a little worried about that. Oh and having the baby is the only option.�

�I knew that. So you�re a little thrilled at the possibility?� Asked Robbins. �Or should I even ask.�

�You see it don�t you? Yeah, shocked but thrilled��I wasn�t sure if I could��.�

�Hey I wasn�t sure either with me loosing my legs and all but I have three healthy kids. I am truly blessed.� Said Al.

�Let�s see if I�m just as blessed.� Said Jim �I wonder what�s taking her so long?�

�She is nervous give her time.� Said Robbins gently. �I take it she hasn�t had kids nor been pregnant before?�

�No, that�s what she told me.� Said Jim.

Meanwhile in the Ladies room Catherine Willows was washing her hands and primping a little as Nevada walked in with the specimen cup.

�Hi Nevada, how are you?� Asked Catherine looking at Nevada in the mirror.

�I could be better Catherine.� Said Nevada.

�What you got there? Drug testing?� She asked.

�No.� Said Nevada as she started crying. Catherine turned around. She looked at Nevada.

�Oh Nevada don�t tell me��it�s a pregnancy test?� Asked Catherine.

�Then I will not.� Said Nevada still in tears. Catherine hugged her.

�And the culprit being our Captain Brass right?� Asked Catherine.

�Culprit?� Asked Nevada.

�The father.� Said Catherine.

�Si.� She said. �We have been, as he says at it, pretty much since the picnic.�

�Well, that was a little more information than I needed but it�s ok. You seem at odds being happy.� Said Catherine.

�I am not married and I am over 40 would you be?� Asked Nevada.

�Probably not but, Jim is an honest man and he isn�t going to leave you and the baby to fend for yourselves.� Said Catherine smiling at her and patting her shoulder. �He is probably thrilled and surprised at the prospect. You know about Ellie don�t you?�

�Si. I know she is not his. I see what you are saying. He is probably happy about it?� Asked Nevada.

�I�m sure he is. If I know Jim like I think I do he�s probably on cloud 9 right about now just thinking on it.� Said Catherine. �Was he mad or upset?�

�No, so you know Jim pretty well. You say he will not abandon me?�

�I know he wont. He will probably do too much for you and you will have to keep him out from under your feet.� Said Catherine. �But I am surprised at him not taking care of things before hand. He usually is on top of things��.Er, I mean he plans things.�

�What do I do with this?� She asked.

�Just pee in it. Take it back to whomever is running the test��I�ll go with you ok? You need a woman with you right now. Hey, I know you are scared��I would be too but don�t worry which ever way it turns out Jim will do the right thing by it and not because he has too either. That much I know.� Said Catherine hugging Nevada.

15 minutes later Nevada and Catherine emerged from the hall into Dr. Robbins office. Jim smirked a little like a kid being caught.

�I met Nevada in the ladies room.� Said Catherine.

�Yeah ok so you know.� Said Jim. �This isn�t up for discussion yet.�

�I see. So as to why you didn�t take care of business��..� Asked Catherine.

�Just didn�t. Catherine, let�s not discuss this yet ok?� Asked Jim.

�Yeah ok.� Said Catherine. �But you got some explaining to do.�

�To you no. Look this is hard enough on Nevada without out us��

�Jim Brass, I was getting your goat. Damn it.� Said Catherine. �See what did I say. Man of his word Nevad/P> /P>
�Huh?� Asked Jim.

�I was telling Nevada you are a man of your word.� Said Catherine.

�Test ladies and gentleman. It�s only a baby maybe right now. Let�s see if there is a reason for all of this.� Said Robbins chiming in.

Nevada handed over the urine sample and he dipped the test in it. all all looked at it coming��.��..Negative.

�Well this says no and it�s 99% accurate. I�ll do a blood test to make sure if you want.� Said Robbins.

�Si.� Said Nevada. Robbins took a blood sample and went to run it.

�Nevada those tests are usually right on the money.� Said Catherine. �You are probably not.�

�Ok.� said Nevada who wasn�t sure if she was sad or not.

�Hey Honey, it�s ok. Besides wouldn�t you rather be married first?� Asked Jim.

�Si I would.� Said Nevada.

�Then we have to do something to prevent it from happening for a while ok?� He asked.

�I can take her to my OB/GYN.� Said Catherine.

�That would be very helpful Catherine. Thank you for caring about Nevada.� said Jim.

�Oh we are already friends. The little time you weren�t with her, me and Sara and Nevada have been. We are all friends. Plus that leaves you and me as friends too Jim don�t forget I care about you too.� Said Catherine.

�Yeah I know.� Said Jim. He gave Catherine a hug for helping out.

�Am I missing something Novio?� She asked.

�No, I don�t think so Duchess but��.�

�Duchess?� Asked Catherine.

�Yes she�s a duchess or didn�t you know? Her father was a duke of some place in Spain��.Seville?� asked Jim.

�Si.� She said. �He was the Ninth Duke of Seville. He did not use his title. I would be duchess being the oldest daughter but I would have to be married in order for it to pass to me. My husband would be the one running the show. But since I do not have one nor am I Spanish any longer��.I mean I am a naturalized American now. I have no affiliation with Spain.� She said.

�That�s still pretty cool Nevada.� Said Catherine.

�Getting back to Nevada�s question��Catherine and I are friends and have been a long time. She told me a long time ago not in this lifetime so��

�I did not.� Said Catherine.

�Yes you did.� Said Jim. �But I would rather not get into this right now.�

�Well gang the tests all point to no. Not this time.� Said Robbins showing them the print out on it. �She does have something though. Her blood showed that. But it�s what is going around. Take her home Jim, give her plenty of fluids and some good old fashioned Jewish penicillin. She will be fine in a few days.�

�Thanks Al.� Said Jim who wasn�t sure if he was happy or not but it was for the best for now. He didn�t want Nevada freaking out because she was an unwed mother at almost 41. Which is just as bad as a teenage unwed mother he thought.

�Si, thank you Dr. Robbins.� said Nevada.

�You go home and rest my dear. I�m sure you will be just fine in a few days.� Said Robbins.

�Thanks Al.� said Jim as the men shook hands.

�I�d say take her home now. She looks a little green under the gills.� Said Robbins.

�Yeah, I see that. Come on Nevada I�ll take you home.� Said Jim.

�What about my car?� She asked.

�I�ll go and get Sara and we can bring it to you Nevada.� Said Catherine.

�Gracious Catherine.� Said Nevada. �Oh pardon me for a moment.� She ran to the ladies room.

�I had better follow her.� Said Catherine.

�Yeah, me in the ladies room wouldn�t set well with all the women in there.� Said Jim. �I don�t think I�m up for a flogging. Especially with those handbags.�

�Ok Jim, just set tight for a moment and I�ll see about her.� Said Catherine giggling a little. Jim shook his head and waited outside the ladies room. People were walking by and looking at him wondering what was going on. He nodded and said hi.

Eckly came by and saw Jim standing there. �Well, how are you Captain?�

�I�m fine, it�s a friend of mine that is a little under the weather.� Said Jim.

�Oh Lt. Cintrone?� Asked Eckly.

�Yeah she has the stomach flu.� Said Jim �Catherine is with her now.�

�You for certain that it is the flu?� Asked Eckly.

�Yeah, so��..why you asking?� Asked Jim.

�Well, I was walking with my wife down by the jogging track at the picnic and saw you two pretty cozy plastered up against a tree.� Said Eckly. �Hey I don�t blame you a bit. I�d nail her too if I wasn�t married.�

Jim�s eyes narrowed and he stood as tall as he could. He had his interrogation face on at the moment and Eckly stood back a little. �If that was your business you�d see a happier face on me at the moment. Don�t go around spreading that because if you do��.you and I are going to settle this off city property and you are not going to like the way I settle it. Nevada is a lady and not to be confused with a woman that�s loose. You get me Eckly?� Said Jim as he was in his face before anyone coulit. it. Eckly knew he meant business.

�Hey, I had no intention of��

�That�s good. I wouldn�t want your health to suffer. So much is going around right now.� Said Jim still having the interrogation face about him. �Nevada isn�t that type of woman. We are tight so keep your feelings and thoughts on that subject confined to your dreams Eckly. Because that is the only place you�ll ever have a woman like her.� Said Jim.

�Listen Brass everyone knows your banging her. It�s evident.� said Eckly. �I had no intention of trying. A woman like her is dangerous. It�s a wonder you�re still breathing.�

�I guess I�m enough man to handle her Eckly. Seems like you would be too afraid too. She doesn�t bite really. Just keep your trap shut about her. When you don�t know someone it�s best to do that or risk repercussions.� Said Jim still pretty angry.

Eckly walked off a little warm seeing Jim gave him a verbal beating but not one laced with bad language. Jim Brass never minced his words.

Meanwhile in the Ladies Room Catherine was helping Nevada feel a little better.

�Well, at least it�s the flu. I bet Jim comes down with this.� Said Catherine.

�I am sure he will if he insists on taking care of me.� Said Nevada.

�Oh, I think that�s a gimme.� Said Catherine. �Why don�t you give me your keys and I�ll have Sara follow me over to your place. �By the way how is Esmerelda?�

�Oh she is fine. But she is in love with Jim. I believe she is convinced that I brought him home for her.� Said Nevada as Catherine giggled. �She preens him. Jim does not seem to mind. He is good with her.�

�He seems pretty good with you too.� Said Catherine. �I�m glad you both are so happy and I�m sad but glad you have a little more time to find out about things. I�ll get you an appointment with Dr. Emily Alagosa. She is the best OB/GYN in this part of the world and in the top 10 of her field. I went to her after Lindsey was born I had a couple of fibroids removed. She is the best.�

�Please go and get me an appointment as soon as you can I can not expect Jim to wait on things or me either. I need to be on birth control. First time in my life for that Catherine. I was raised Catholic and it wasn�t discussed.� Said Nevada.

�Well so was Jim but he should have known better your still young enough to have kids or you wouldn�t still have your periods. I�m kind of pissed at him for not taking care of business. But I guess it didn�t dawn on him or you either might I add.� She said.

�I know. These days and ages are different. I am no longer a practicing Catholic so it does not matter. I just never knew too much about that sort of thing. My mother was not around for THE talk and Aunt Maeve��she did not say much about sex. I learned that on my own.� Said Nevada.

�Well, you know gh igh it looks like. Jim seems happy and your happy with him. Makes me wonder if I didn�t make a mistake.� Said Catherine.

�You had a chance with him and you blew it?� Asked Nevada.

�Years ago. I just saw a rumpled detective. I didn�t see a tiger in a Jim suit.� said Catherine.

�Si, he is El Tigre.� Said Nevada giggling.

�Well, I missed the boat but that�s ok. You are more suited to Jim than I could have ever been.� Said Catherine.

Nevada got cleaned up gave Catherine her keys and went out Jim was still standing waiting with as much patients as Jim Brass had.

�Duchess did everything come out all right?� He asked.

�Si, I think it all did.� She said.

�Let�s get you home before anything else happens.� Said Jim. �Just bring the car and drop it Catherine and thanks.�

�No problem, Jim just take care of her but I know you will.� She said.

He got a hold of Nevada and they walked out of the station to his car.

�You know Mi Novio that you will find yourself sick taking care of me.� She said.

�Yeah, but I am sure you and Esmerelda will be there. I know my two best girls will take care of me. One will make sure I eat and the other will keep my feathers clean.� he said.

�You can count on that.� Said Nevada.

Jim took Nevada to her place and got her settled. Esmerelda was throwing a fit to see him calling Jim�s name. He finally got to her cage to let her out.

�Shush Esmerelda, Mamma doesn�t feel good.� Said Jim as the bird climbed his arm and on to his shoulder. He brought her over to the bed where Nevada was lying down. But she wasn�t budging off his shoulder without a little preening. She rubbed against him like a cat does and softly and carefully preened his ear. He rubbed her head and wing a little.

Then he chuckled. �Shit that tickles.� he said.

�She loves you Jim.� Said Nevada.

�Yeah, well I�m usedused to so much attention given my ears. Now Ma used to clean them but I haven�t had a female do that in about oh say 40 years.� Said Jim.

�She is just saying she cares. She thinks you are her mate I think.� Said Nevada.

�Well, humm let her think what she wants I guess. It�s not hurting anything. But we know differently don�t we?� He asked.

�Si, but do not say that too loudly she knows many words and she is in her 20�s.� Said Nevada as the bird saw her and went down Jim�s arm to the bed going over to Nevada.

�Mamma not good?� She asked.

�No Mamma feels bad Esmerelda.� Said Nevada scratching the bird a little. Esmerelda rubbed Nevada�s hand and got up on the head board.

�Well she is better than most kids. She knows when to quit.� said Jim. �You�re a good girl Esmerelda.�

�I think I am going to rest now.� Said Nevada.

�Ok but I�m staying. I�ll make you something to eat. You have any Ginger Ale?� Asked Jim.

�Yes but it is hot. It is not refrigerated.� Said Nevada.

�That�s good. The cold just makes you feel sicker. Room temperature Ginger Ale will calm you stomach.� said Jim.

�How you know all this?� Asked Nevada.

�Dad training.� Said Jim. �Ellie used to get a sick stomach and I would give her what Ma gave me. Room temp ginger ale guaranteed to work.�

�I will try por porfavor.� Said Nevada.

�That�s please right?� Asked Jim.

�You are catching on Novio.� Said Nevada. She settled on the bed Esmerelda perched on her head board. Jim went to get the ginger ale but a knock came on the door. Jim answered it. It was Catherine and Sara.

�Hi Jim, How�s the patient?� Asked Sara who handed him the keys to Nevada�s car.

�Resting right now. Thanks ladies for bringing her car.� Said Jim.

�We aren�t coming in we just wanted to see how she was.� Said Catherine.

�Oh and tell her I love her car. That Mustang almost drives itself.� Said Sara.

�It does doesn�t it. I�ll tell her.� Said Jim.

�Oh and do you need anything? Does she?� Asked Catherine.

�Nevada do you need anything?� Asked Jim.

�Si, tell them to come in.� Said Nevada.

The three of them went into Nevada�s room.

�Cat, Sara.� Said Esmerelda.

�Hello Esmerelda.� said Catherine. �Nevada, Lindsey wants a parrot now.�

�They are great compadres Catherine. Umm, Jim could you please��

�Oh sure I�ll get you the ginger ale.� said Jim who was a little perplexed because he was asked to leave the room. �What could she want that I couldn�t get for her?�

�I know what you need.� Said Catherine. �What kind and what size?�

�Regular Playtex Pearl.� Said Nevada. �I could not ask that of Jim.�

Sara and Catherine started to giggle. �I�m sure he has had to do that but not in the last 15 years.�

�I felt like I would be stretching things a little.� said Nevada as Esmerelda had gotten down to investigate Sara and Catherine. Nevada handed Catherine money but she waved it off. �As one woman to another. I�ll bring this back by or Sara can.�

�Gracious. It std whd when we got back and I have only one left. I felt a little funny telling Jim.�

�Ok but he�s had females around before Nevada��And you and him are��

�Si but��

�I know how she feels.� said Sara. �It is a little embarrassing.�

�What�s embarrassing?� Asked Jim.

�Oh nothing we were on our way out. One of us will be coming back with a package of sorts.� said Catherine.

�Ok I�ll be up for a while. I�m not leaving tonight.� Said Jim. �You�ll have to catch the scum without me tonight ladies. I have a lady that needs me.� He handed Nevada the ginger ale. She took a sip and made a face.

�Novio, this is awful!� Said Nevada.

�But it will help your stomach I swear.� Said Jim.

�What is it?� Asked Sara.

�Room temperature ginger ale. Ice will contract her stomach muscles and make her sicker.� said Jim.

�Yeah and how did you know that?� Asked Catherine.

�Dad training and being a kid with a belly too full of ice cream.� Said Jim.

�Oh I bet you got sick.� Said Sara giggling.

�I did but this cleared it up. But I had to be a good boy and drink all of it.� Said Jim. �Nevada, go on and be a good girl and just drink it. Sipping is better though.�

�Well, ok.� said Nevada grumbling a little.

�We will go now. One of us will be back later with a package.� Said Catherine.

�Ok. See you ladies later then.� He said walking them out.

They said their goodbyes and Jim closed the door. He went back into her room.

�Ok what was that all about. A package? You moving drugs in and out of here?� He asked chuckling a little.

�No Novio. It is something better left to Catherine and Sara.� said Nevada a little shyly.

�Oh��..OH well��..at least that happened right? Honey. I would have gone to the store for that for you. I can match things up and get that. Well, I would put a few useless items in to throw the clerk off but��..�

Nevada giggled a little. �Useless items?�

�Why yes Duchess. Men for decades went to get that sort of thing, but you have to throw in a few things. You know, soda, gum, a few light bulbs, chip and dip, maybe even a steak or some shrimp and charcoal is great to hid it. We just hope there isn�t a sale on the item in question and a price check ensues.� Said Jim chuckling and Nevada giggling a little. �Hey it�s ok. I�m cool with it.�

�Si you are Jim. But I would not put you though that.� She said.

�Well next time don�t send someone else I don�t mind. I�m pretty smart. All I have to do is look at the package and maybe take it with me but leave it in the car. I can match things up.� He said sitting gingerly on the bed.

�I guess I will next time.� Said Nevada.

�Anything you need don�t be afraid to ask��Nevada I care about you and I would even go to the store for that if you asked. Ok?� He asked.

�Si, ok.� Said Nevada. She laid her head down. �My stomach feels better.�

�What did I tell ya?� He asked. He brushed her hair back the stroked it.

�My mother used to do that when I was sick.� She said. �I miss Mamma very much.�

�I�m sure you do. I�m sorry the Estrada case has hit a snag.� Said Jim.

�We still have not heard from the retired detee the that worked the case yet. Maybe he will shed some light on things.� She said.

�You want some soup?� he asked.

�Later Novio. I need rest right now. You do not have to stay.� She said.

�Yes I do Nevada. You need me and I�m here. I don�t want you to think that��.�

�I have not Novio. You have gone above and beyond today with me. Gracious.� She said.

�Da Nada. I would be a very bad boyfriend if I didn�t take care of you. I know soon it will be my turn.� Said Jim. �Get some sleep Duchess.�

�Ok Novio.� Said Nevada. Jim got up and went to the living room an turned on the TV.

�What a day!� he exclaimed to himself. �Am I happy about it turning out this way or am I not?� He asked himself. �Well one thing is for sure it was fun while it lasted. It wouldn�t be a bad thing if it had happened.�

An hour went by and there was a knock on the door again. Jim answered the door. It was Sara.

�Hey Sara, come in.� Said Jim.

�No, I just stopped by with the package.� She said.

�I already know what it is. Nevada can�t hid anything from me or me her.� Said Jim taking the package from her.

�She was a little embarrassed.� said Sara. �I guess I would be too Jim.�

�We had a talk Sara, it�s ok. I understand really.� said Jim smiling at Sara.

�I hope she gets to feeling better soon. Tell her will you?� Asked Sara.

�Ok, but how are you doing? Seems like when you got back you and I never got to talk on things. I�m still your friend Sara even if Nevada and I have something going on.� He said.

�I didn�t want to bother you with my problems. Your happy and it�s been a long time since you were. I can only hope someday��.�

�Listen come in and talk to me. We will have to be quiet but we can talk. Nevada would want you too.� Said Jim.

�No, not this time. I just hope that someday I�ll find the right guy. It took you two a long time to find each other and Grissom��..I don�t think is the right man for me. Oh friendship ok, but not for a boyfriend or husband. He hasn�t even talked to me since I got back from rehab.� said Sara.

�I�m sorry. I wish I could get a hold of him and slap some sense into him but you know how he is. He is good at his job and not much else. But he is a friend and I do love the guy. By the way I love you too Sara as a friend and I don�t like to see you so unhappy.� He said.

�Concentrate on Nevada, she is a really wonderful woman. I know that myself and very wise. She told me some men get it and others don�t. I just set myself up with someone that does get it. I�ll see you later Jim.� Said Sara turning. Jim stopped her and pulled her into a hug.

�Now then, feel better ok Sara? If we can do anything let us know. We love you, you know.� He said letting her go.

�Thanks Jim. I know you and Nevada care and so do a lot of people. But it�s nice knowing I have such good friends. Take care and say hi to Nevada for me.� Said Sara She let him go first then she went out toward her car.

�We�ll do. Take care yourself Sara.� Said Jim . �Thanks for helping.�

�No problem, Good Night Jim.�

�Good Night Sara.�

He watched her get into her SUV and drive away. Then he went inside.

�I am so lucky. Grissom is an ass if you ask me. I love that guy but he is missing the boat. I�m glad I didn�t miss this boat.� He said looking in on Nevada. Esmerelda was asleep on the head board too her head tucked under her wing.

�Doc Robbins is right I should tell Nevada I love her. She needs to know I need to tell her before it�s too late.� Said Jim.

The next morning came Nevada got up feeling much better and went out to the living room. Jim was snoring on the couch asleep.

�Novio, you are a very gallant man staying for me. You more than care for me.� She said as she smiled and walked over to him. She sat down a little on the couch and he stirred with her putting her hand on his head. He turned over.

�Nevada, are you feeling better?� He asked.

�Si, but I could eat a lion.� Said Nevada.

�You mean a horse?� He asked.

�Si.� She said.

Jim got up and swung his legs on the floor. �I�ll make you some eggs and toast that will be soft enough for your stomach.� he said.

�Ok, I will let you. You are going to have me spoiled.� Said Nevada.

�Oh I want that. Everyone needs to be spoiled. By the way you spoil me too. We are going to be rotten soon.� Said Jim.

�Si, we are.� Said Nevada.

�Nevada, I��

�I know already you need not say it.� Said Nevada who knew exactly what he was going to say. She wanted him to be sure before he said it.

�Ok but I do need to say it at some point.� He said.

�As do I Novio, you suchsuch a good man.� She said as he pulled her closer.

�So Nevada who�s your daddy?� he asked.

�Juan Diego Cintrone��..� She said as if he had lost his mind. He chuckled because she didn�t understand.

�No, no that�s your father. Honey who�s your man?� He asked.

�James Brass is. You are Novio.� Said Nevada snuggling in a little.

�Good I�m glad you know.� said Jim.

�Why would I not? But asking who is your daddy��..Oh, a saying and I did miss it. I am sorry.� She said.

�Don�t be I shouldn�t have put it that way. I really know now you have problems with saying and such. I�m going to remedy that but it is really cute when you haven�t quite caught on.� he said.

�Oh I know you find me amusing as I find you just as trying to learn Spanish but you are doing a better job of that than I learning sayings.� she said.

�I think we are even to tell you the truth.� He said.

�I do too.� she said.

�Jim who is your Mamma?� She asked. Thinking that it went both ways. Jim chuckled.

�Rebecca Elizabeth O�Hurley-Brass.� He chuckled.

�Humm��.� Said Nevada.

�I�m yanking your goat.� Said Jim. �You�re my lady Nevada. Never doubt that for a moment ok?�

�Ok But I still wanted to ask that.� She said>

�It doesn�t go both ways but I see what you were trying to say.� He was still chuckling.

�So��.?�

�You�re my Mamma.� Said Jim. �A hot Mamma too I might add.�

�Careful you do not get singed Novio.� Said Nevada.

�Not a chance, my dear. Not a chance.� Said Jim hugging her.
