Hello, here is the third chapter of: "Support." Do you like it uptill now? I hope so.
Disclaimer: And I haven't found a way to claim the characters, or at least Grissom, mine. So, nope. I don't own any of them yet.
Please R&R!
Note: This is the part where the point of view changes to Sara's. It will change back to Grissom's when he wakes up after surgery.
'You should leave now, Sara.' I heard Carol telling me, but I didn't listen. The sight of Grissom falling down after the drugs was shocking; it truly frightened me.
'Are you listening?' Startled, I looked up. Carol was talking to me.
'Don't worry, it'll be ok.' she soothingly said and dragged me to the entrance. 'Now go and find your friends, I think Carter and Susan took somewhere in the restaurant.'
I nodded and left, a sick feeling in my stomach. I didn't like the fact I had to leave Grissom behind, even though he was drugged right now. It felt so bad, seeing him fade away after he got the drugs. Thinking, I wandered towards the restaurant. When a familiar voice called out my name, I looked up from some good memories, like the first time Grissom and I met, and we didn't, couldn't, have any feelings like this at all for each other.
'Sara! Over here!' I turned in the direction where the voice came from and I saw good old Nicky waving at me. Surprisingly, he was alone.
'Hey Nicky.' I said in a weak voice, while I dropped down on the chair next to him.
'Hey.' he said gently. 'Are you ok?'
'Yes. No.' I said. 'It was so shocking, seeing him falling down after the drug. His eyes just, you know, rolled backwards, like when someone dies, and it was absolutely terrible to see.'
He came on to me and put his arm around my shoulders.
'Don't worry, little sis.' he said with his typical smile. 'He'll get through it, and so will you.'
'Thank you Nicky.' I said thankfully. Then I thought of something. 'Where is everyone?'
'Greg went to the bathroom after two big glasses of cola, Catherine left to pick up Lindsey from school, and Warrick is checking out something, he should be back soon. And Jim just left, after a call. I guess he had to work- Warrick!' he said, and I quickly turned. Warrick came walking in our direction, taking a girl, about eighteen years old, with him. He looked very happy.
'Hey guys, I'd like you to meet Sheila, my younger sister. Sheila, these are two of my best friends, Sara Sidle and Nick Stokes.'
'Hey, nice to meet you!' Nick smiled, and she smiled back.
'You too. Texas, right?' she smiled, a mischievous smile on her face. Nick's eyes were wide.
'How did you know that?' he asked, astonished.
'I know how to recognize accents… And I have a big brother with a lot of information.' she laughed, causing the others to laugh at her as well.
'Hey, Sara, are you okay?' Warrick asked concerned.
'Hmm, I guess. But why didn't you ever tell me you had a sister?' I said. I wanted to change the subject, before Warrick would go ask questions too. Though he is kind-hearted, I really can't stand going through it again, not even for my most valuable friend. Yeah, he is, Nick is my brother, half-brother, and Warrick is a better friend than Greg is, admit!
'You didn't tell her about me?' Sheila said with a playful, quasi-angry look on her face.
'Sorry, we had a lot on our minds.' Warrick said, stupid enough.
'The whole time? All of these years?' Sheila said sarcastically.
'Yup. So, you better watch out before you start doing this!' Warrick warned her.
'I already AM doing this, 'Rick.' she answered, and she drew our attention.
'You train to be a CSI?' I asked intrigued.
'Yup. And in two weeks, I'll have my exam.' she said, you could hear she was proud.
'How do you know you're going to pass?'
'I do. I can't possibly fail.' she said. Warrick choked.
'You sound exactly like our Sara here!' Greg added, smiling at me. I punched him.
Sheila laughed. 'Are you guys into each other?' That was when I choked. Nick burst out in laughter, and Warrick quickly explained what was going on.
'I think it's just from one side, Sheila. Meaning Greg's one.' he said grinning. This was when Greg choked.
'Sorry?!' he squeaked out. The others, including me, laughed. Greg turned red, but smiled as well.
'Sara is with Grissom.' Warrick continued. Sheila raised an eyebrow.
'Sleeping with the big boss? Trying to get promotion, Sara?' The others looked at her, shocked, and Warrick was going to tell her to shut up, when I smiled.
'If I wanted promotion, I'd sleep with Ecklie.' I said, trying not to laugh as I faced the horrified expressions on the other's faces.
'Which he wouldn't allow, and which I'd definitely never do.' I added to calm them down. The others smiled at Sheila's disappointment.
'Now I don't have a good story at school tomorrow! A great story about boss and employee sleeping together would have been amazing in class, if it was about money or not! But true love, that's so boring!' Sheila managed to get out before she ran off to the toilet. The others laughed again.
'We are laughing a lot while Grissom is in surgery, huh?' I said, I felt a little guilty. The facial expressions turned down before you could say: quiet.
'So, Sara, are you ok?' Warrick asked again. I answered exactly the same.
'That's not good.' he said. I felt bad. God, did they have to put me through this again?
'You know, 'Rick, I'm sorry, but I really don't think I want to talk about it, ok?' I was hoping he'd understand. But I didn't have to worry about anything.
'It's okay.' he said gently, his green eyes filled with worry and compassion. We all stood up and had a family hug, causing Sheila to burst out in laughter as she returned from the toilet.
'Hey, guys, would I fit in?' We all turned around to see Catherine standing there smiling broadly.
'Sure, Cath, come on!' Nick laughed. We all grinned and I felt a lot better.
After sitting, talking, and laughing, Carter came walking in.
'Sara, Mark says he's almost dome and that Grissom will be in the Rest-room soon.'
'Yeah, thanks Carter.' I said, looking at the others. 'You guys go, before Ecklie gets mad. I'll be fine.' The others looked at me worriedly.
'Are you sure?' Catherine said. I nodded and smiled at them to calm them down. It seemed to work; the smiled back and prepared to leave.
'Tell Grissom we'll get back here as soon as we can, okay?' Warrick said. I smiled, and told him I'd take care of it.
'See you, sis, watch over him. And yourself, of course.' Nick said, causing the others to grin.
I watched them leave and waved at them one last time before sighing and following Carter.
Did y'all like it? Please tell my if it was good or not in your review! XD
Stick around, 'cause the next chapter will be there. It won't take me longer than a couple of minutes.
