They stayed in that embrace for awhile. They broke apart when Rachel started whimpering. Grissom bounced her a bit and said, "What's the matter sweetheart?"

She whimpered a bit louder, and Grissom asked his wife, "Did you bring her bag?"

"Uh, yeah, it's in the car," she said. "I'll get it...I'll be back in a minute."

She came back a few minutes later with Rachel's bag over her shoulder. Grissom checked her diaper, but it was fine. He thought she might be hungry, so he got her a bottle. She sucked hungrily on it until her little tummy was full. Grissom placed Rachel on his shoulder and gently patted her small back. She let out a small burp, and a sigh of content. She then curled her feet up against her father and snuggled into his arms. He smiled as his daughter fell asleep.

He heard Sara sigh, and he looked up.

"Honey, what's wrong?" he asked.

She moved closer to him and rested her cheek on his shoulder. She gently stroked her daughter's cheek and asked quietly, "How could a person even think of harming a child? They're so helpless and innocent."

"I honestly don't know, honey," he said. "But I will do everything I can to keep her safe...and you as well."

"I know you will...you are such a good father," she murmured, kissing his cheek. "Gil, are we going to stay at our home?"

"No," he said instantly. "I'll ask Catherine if she has any spare room."

"Of course I do," she said from the doorway.

"Jeez, don't do that!" exclaimed Grissom.

"Sorry," she said. "I do have extra room for the two - three - of you to stay in."

"Thank you so much," said Sara. "I should probably go home and get some supplies for us."

"Sara, I don't want you to go to our house," said Grissom. "I don't want you to get hurt."

"I'll be careful," said Sara.

"I know, but...I just don't want to lose you," he said quietly.

"I'm just going to go to our house, get clothes, toiletries, and some of Rachel's stuff," said Sara. "Then I'll go straight to Catherine's house, I promise."

"Okay," said Grissom reluctantly. "Just please be careful."

"I will, honey," she said. "I'll go in, get the stuff, and get out."

He nodded and he and Catherine escorted her to her car. Grissom asked her if she wanted him to keep Rachel.

"No, I'd better take her with," she said. "Then when I get to Cath's house, I can put her to bed, 'coz it is way past her bedtime."

"Okay...just be on your guard," he said.

He gently strapped Rachel in her car seat, and kissed his wife. He once again told her to be careful.

"I will," she said. "Cath, I'll be at your house within an hour and a half."

"Okay...I'll be waiting," she said.

Grissom watched his wife drive off, with and uneasy feeling in his gut.

Sara got to her house in about twenty minutes. She took Rachel inside with her, and quickly got a suitcase and a duffle bag. She filled the suitcase with her family's clothes, and the duffle bag with Rachel's toys, diapers, etc. She was on her way out, when she heard a cold voice say, "Don't move, bitch, or I will blow your brains out!"
