Ch. 1- Kiss on the Belly: I'm Ready.
Brass muttered under his breath as he rushed to the crime scene Grissom was working. "How can a genius in his field forget his damn cell phone?" Sara had just called him 5 mins. earlier. Her water had just broken and she needed Brass to find Grissom.
"Why didn't you call him?!" he asked. "I would if he hadn't left his cell hitched up to the charger!!" she replied.
So now here was Brass rushing off to find the bugman before he missed the birth of his son. While Brass was hunting down the daddy to be Sara was gonna call Nick, who was off that night, and have him drive her to the hospital.
He found Grissom lifting prints off a door at the crime scene. Greg was standing nearby.
"Hey Gil, did you forget something?" Brass asked him smiling.
"No why?" Grissom asked.
"I was thinking that you forgot your cell when your wife called me when her water broke." Brass said loudly.
"Damn, Let's go!" Grissom said rushing towards Brass's car.
"Can't this thing go any faster!!" yelled Grissom. His heart was beating so fast he thought it would jump out of his throat at any minute. "I'm going 70 already, just try to breathe and relax. We'll get there in time!!" Brass yelled back.
Meanwhile at the hospital the nursing staff was getting Sara settled in her room. "OK dad, we just need you to fill out this form for your wife" the nurse at the counter said to Nick. "Oh, I'm not her husband. He's on his way now. I'm just a co-worker and friend" he replied. Nick chuckled to himself and wondered what Grissom would think when he found out they thought HE was the dad..."on second thought maybe I won't tell him" fearing that Grissom would not find it humorous and give him decomps for a month.
Brass arrived at the hospital with a screeching stop and Grissom flew out of the car and into the hospital. He ran to the nurse's station, "Sara Grissom, where is she? I'm her husband."
"She's in the birthing room." The nurse offered kindly.
Walking into the room, Grissom stopped at the door and saw Sara laying on the bed talking to Nick.
"When Gil and I went on our first real date, I wasn't sure it was a date until he held my hand." Sara said softly.
"That's so sweet, so old fashioned" Nick said.
"Gil you made it!!" yelled Sara. Grissom rushed to Sara's side and kissed her forehead. "How you feeling?" He asked anxiously. "So far so good" she replied. "I'm glad your finally here. I was starting to get tired of explaining to the nurses that Nick is just a friend, not my husband." she continued.
"No wonder they didn't ask downstairs." Grissom thought out loud. "Huh?" asked Sara. "Never mind" he replied. "Hey Nick, thanks for bringing her. I owe ya a big one" he continued. "Anytime, glad I could help" answered Nick.
Nick then turned to Sara and said "Soooo? tell me about the first date. We've got time to kill."
"Well Nicky, it was right after you were rescued. He took me for coffee and then I went home." Sara began.
"That's it?" Nick asked, a bit disappointed.
"Oh, no. That's not it. Hang on,... Gil!!" Sara groaned as her contraction grew stronger.
"Its ok, just breathe." Grissom coached.
"Oh ok, I'm fine now...Anyways I was home for a little while, there was a knock on my door. It was Grissom." Sara smiled.
"I see, so you went to make your move, huh boss?" Nick said elbowing Grissom's arm.
"No, I had just realized that life was too short and I couldn't live without Sara knowing how I felt." Grissom said quietly.
"He came in, we talked, we laughed and cried. He held my hand, I kissed him, and we fell asleep on the sofa. Then, we went to see you at the hospital. Our first date was to see you." Sara added.
Nick soon realized Sara was getting more uncomfortable, so he gave Sara a kiss on her hand, shook Grissom's hand and went to find Brass.
"Jim, Sara is really starting to be uncomfortable, so maybe we should go in, say good luck and go to the waiting room." Nick said.
Walking back into the birthing room, the two men could hear Sara cursing, "Goddamnit, Gilbert. You are never touching me again. Oh, shit. Gil!!"
"Maybe we should wait outside Nick." Brass said quietly.
Sara stopped screaming and looked at the men, "Come on in."
Grissom excused himself to go to the men's room, and Brass and Nick walked to either side of Sara's bed. She grabbed both of their hands and smiled, "I love both of you. Thanks for being here."
"Anything for you, Cookie." Brass said.
Grissom came back in the room and went back to Sara's bedside.
As Grissom reached her side another contraction hit. Sara squeezed her eyes shut, grabbed Nick and Grissom by the collars, and began to yank as she screamed out in pain.
"I'll go find the doctor" yelled Brass as he started to run out of the room, thankful he had been out of arm's reach of Sara's grasp, "oh and Sara, ease up on the guys before I have to haul you in for assault and battery." "JIM GET THE DAMN DOCTOR!!" Sara screamed, still clutching Nick and Grissom's collars. Moments later he returned with the doctor right behind him.
"Alrighty now, let's see how we're doing here." Dr. Callahan took a moment to examine Sara.
"Alright, looks like we're ready to push. Are you ready Mrs. Grissom?" asked Dr. Callahan.
"Yes!!...Yes!!...get this damn kid out of me already!!" screamed Sara between breathes. "Are you ready dad?" the doctor asked Grissom. "No" he replied.
Both the doctor and Sara stared at him in disbelief. Then Grissom leaned down and gently kissed Sara's belly. As he stood up, he smiled at Sara and said "I'm ready."
Twenty minutes later, at 7:26 p.m. on February 21st, Grissom gazed down at his newborn son, William Alexander, in Sara's arms. He was a healthy 7 lbs. 14 ½ oz. And was 19 in. long. He kissed Sara on the forehead, then leaned down and kissed his son's belly. He was ready, ready to be a dad.
