Sorry for the long wait guys…love to give you some great excuses, but I was just being lazy. Hey I deserve it. Anyway…don't own them…blah blah blah…on with the show.
Parental development
They stopped over at a pharmacy on the way home and picked up Sara's prescription and ended up leaving with a couple of jars of pickles along with, licorice whips, a Hershey's chocolate bar, and a bag of onion flavored chips.
Sara happily walked next to him grabbing ring after ring of the chips. "Sara you better not eat too many of those, you might make yourself sick" he commented as they got into the car.
She reluctantly agreed and put the chips in the bag. When they got home Sara went straight to bed and Grissom once again took care of the animals. Moments later he joined her to catch a quick nap before work.
When they woke up Grissom made Sara stay in bed while he fixed her something to eat and she did so obediently. When he came back he sat beside her and they both ate in bed.
"Do you want to tell the guys?" Grissom asked her "It's up to you" he finished. She thought about it while she ate, contemplating what their reactions would be.
"What do you think? Honestly" she asked.
"I think they would be happy for us. That and all the restrictions you are going to have to follow when it comes to your physical limitations they're going to wonder." He answered her.
"I think they would be happy too and I think your right. I'm going to need help at the scenes. Just promise me one thing" she said.
"What" he asked.
"No giving me just the wimpy assignments, I don't want any preferential treatment. If you start giving me nothing but trick rolls and B and E's I promise I'll get mad."
"Alright, no preferential treatment" he agreed.
"Good, now let's get ready for work" she said getting out of the bed and heading for the shower, Grissom close on her heals.
"Hey Sara" Warrick said "you feeling better" he asked.
"Nothing a couple days off couldn't cure" she answered while they walked into the break room. Between the medication she took before her nap and the spice Grissom insisted she put on almost everything she ate she felt much better.
When they got into the break room both of them headed to the coffee pot. Warrick was pouring his and Sara was waiting when they heard someone come up behind them. Sara instantly knew it was Grissom and placed her hand over her cup when Warrick moved to fill it.
"I'm in the mood for some tea" She said surprising Warrick. Grissom placed a new box of peppermint tea on the counter and Sara had a hard time not smiling.
"Found this in the store this morning and thought you might want to give it a try" he said before grabbing a mug for himself and filling both his and Sara's mugs with hot water while she placed tea bags in both.
Grissom had agreed to follow the same diet she had to follow and cut out the caffeine, commented it would probably do him some good.
"No coffee Griss?" Nick commented from the table.
"Nope" he said. Once their mugs were full they took their seats at the table.
"Before I hand out assignments there is something I need to go over with you all" he said, grabbing their attention.
"Did I miss anything" Brass said from the doorway. Sara got up and walked over to him, giving him a hug.
"No, we were just about to tell them" she said as he sat down beside her at the table.
"Tell us what?" Greg interrupted.
"If you guys would be quiet for a minute I can explain" Grissom said, getting their attention once more.
"As I was saying, three days ago Sara and I found out she's pregnant" he announced. They all looked from him to her with astonished looks on their faces. They were beginning to worry when the room erupted in cheers and congratulations.
"Wow, you guys sure move fast don't you" Nick commented.
"Actually, it was a total surprise. I just had the appointment with my doctor today" Sara said as they all calmed down.
"The reason we're telling you is partly because of why it happened. I was still on my anti-coagulation medication when I got pregnant and I have to take it easy until I reach my second tri-mester" she explained.
"Sara is going to have to take it easy for the next seven weeks at least. I have agreed to continue to allow her in the field but someone has to always be with her." Grissom warned.
"We wanted to let you know because I am going to have to" she swallowed "have to take it easy" she finished, looking like she had swallowed a bug. They all began to chuckle. They knew as well as Sara did that it was going to be hard for her to take it easy.
They all nodded their heads in agreement "There's one more thing" Grissom said before he handed out assignments. "Ecklie still doesn't know so it' hush hush for now." Again they nodded their heads in agreement.
"Now for assignments" Grissom said and began the work day.
Now be kind and leave a review…please.
