Sarah
She heard footsteps and looked up with slight relief as she saw her girlfriend run up to her. When Sarah reached her she kissed her forehead.
"Oh baby, I was so worried about you when I heard about the library and you'd been shot," she said concerned.
"I'm fine," she answered clinging to her. "It was just a scratch..." She then looked back up with tears in her eyes. "My dad was shot."
"What?" she asked in shock.
"He's in surgery," she answered on the verge of tears. "He's critical."
"Chloe, he's going to be alright. You told me he's a fighter," she answered playing with her hair.
"Mum's just gone into labour."
"Everything will be alright. He'll live to see your brother and sister."
She nodded numbly. Rossi smiled slightly to see she was comfortable with her sexuality and was now in a loving relationship. She smiled up at him sadly.
"Sarah, this is Uncle Dave. Uncle Dave, this is my girlfriend, Sarah," she said.
"Nice to meet you, kid," he smiled slightly.
"Nice to meet you too, Mr Rossi. I just wish the circumstances were better."
"So do I, dear, so do I."
He suddenly heard footsteps run up and looked round only to have Jack crash into his legs hugging them. He crouched down and hugged him close rubbing his back.
"Your dad is going to be alright, buddy," he soothed.
"Have you heard anything?" Jessica asked.
"Not yet," he answered shaking his head.
They heard footsteps and looked up to see the surgeon. Dave got back up and faced him holding his best friend's ten year old son close to him.
