A/N: I'm sorry it took me so long to write this chapter but I'm at another
computer that's in the middle of the living room, my brother kept hanging
over my shoulder trying read the ch and alot of other distractions
including school. Thanks to Peggie for pointing out that ch 1 had been
accidentally replaced by ch 3 I'm currently trying to fix that.
Chapter 6
Lorelai was just pulling up into Nick's driveway when she heard the shots. Faster than lighting she dialed the police.
"Hello?"
"Yes there's been gun shots at 45 south St."
"Okay were on our way."
Hanging up she pulled out her gun and got out of her car careful not to make any noise. When she peered into the window she was horrified by what she saw. Nick was sprawled out on the floor bleeding from his shoulder apparently passed out while the gunman was binding Greg.
Greg had heard what the man was saying to Nick even though he was about to pass out from the pain in his arm. He forced himself to jump up at the gun pushing it upwards shooting Nick's shoulder instead of his abdomen; the shot not fatal.
Greg had been unable to stay awake any longer and was totally unconscious as the gunman bound together his wrists and carried him to the Truck. Before he could return for Nick however the police arrived and he drove off.
Lorelai had silently entered the house and was watching as Greg was taken from the room. 'Soon as I get a clear shot your deadmeat.' She was thinking.
The second he had walked outside with Greg she ran to Nick. He didn't appear to have lost a lot of blood but it was still enough. She ran out the back to see if she could catch him before he left with Greg.
She dialed Jessica's number on her cell phone. Her and Greg had been going out for a couple a months. Jessica was teacher at the elementary school. Greg's niece had dragged him to open house when her parents couldn't take her and that's when he had met her and he hadn't talked about much of anything else since.
"Jessica speaking" She answered the phone.
"Hey Jesse it's Lorelai I need you to sit down before I tell you this."
"Okay I'm sitting what's wrong?"
"It's Greg he's been kidnapped." there was a long silence on the other end.
"Jessica? He was at Nicks when it happened Nicks been shot." she waited for an answer.
"I'm on my way." she said and hung up before Lorelai could even reply.
Sara walked into Grissom's hospital room afraid of what she might see. He was laying there hooked up to so many machines to help him breath and lord only knows what else.
It broke her heart to see him like that and she wanted nothing more than to run. Run away from here away from this nightmare she had found herself in. She pushed away the urge and sat down in the chair by his bed.
"Hey Griss." she said on the verge of tears. She took his hand in hers just as he had only a few hours ago.
"Grissom I need you to know how..." "That when I was in that fire all I could think about was you that I...that I love you." She said as Grissom took a rasping breath.
It looked so painful she couldn't bear it any longer and ran out of the room. She couldn't run much further than the door due to her injuries but she wasn't about to stop entirely until she ran into Warrick and Catherine. She tried to wipe away the tears but she wasn't fast enough.
"Sara what's wrong?" Catherine asked running up to her. Sara was out of breath from the run even though it was so short.
"I'm fine don't worry go see Grissom." she said but Catherine couldn't help but notice that she never looked into her eyes. She knew she was lying but it was no use arguing.
"Okay I'll just walk you to your room I hasn't seen you awake since the fire." She said walking with Sara and gave Warrick a look that plainly said 'she's lying I'll be back later.' Warrick just turned and walked towards Grissom's room.
When they where back in Sara's hospital room Catherine asked no nonsense "Now stop lying tell me what's up."
"I already told you I'm fine." she said defensively
"Sara I know that's not true and so do you now spill."
"I don't know I just couldn't take it seeing..."
"What?" Catherine probed.
"He looked so ...so like he was just near death and I..."
"You love him." Catherine said softly.
"Yes and he was in so much pain." Sara hardly seemed to be talking to Catherine any more.
Just then Warrick popped in urgency written all over his face.
"Lorelai just called Nick's been shot."
"Oh my god" Sara breathed.
Catherine turned to Sara and said really fast "Sara I'll call you when I get the details but I gotta go you gonna be okay."
Sara just sat there after they left wondering if it really was a nightmare.
When Jessica got to Nick's place Nick had already been loaded into the ambulance and was on his way to the hospital. She walked into the kitchen but was stopped by Lorelai before she could enter the living room where the attack had taken place.
"Jessica you can't go in there let's go talk outside." Lorelai said ushering her out.
Once Nick had been removed she shooed out all the paramedics and policemen so as not to further contaminate the scene.
She planned on leaving to join Nick at the hospital as soon as Warrick and Catherine arrived.
Sitting on the porch she filled Jessica in on everything. By the time she finished Jessica was crying and Lorelai was having trouble not crying herself.
"We'll find him I promise."
Jessica seemed to be calming down when Warrick and Catherine arrived.
"I'm going to see Nick you guy's process okay?" Lorelai asked.
"You don't worry we can take it from here."
Lorelai was just getting in her car when Jessica came running up. "Wait I'm coming with you!" she jumped in the car and didn't bother to explain it.
It wasn't necessary. She needed to be somewhere she couldn't just wait for Greg to show up it wasn't gonna happen and there wasn't anything else for her to do.
