Part 6
Grissom pulled away from Sara and turned to his son. He grabbed Jacob in a headlock and ruffled his hair. "Just because you wear a uniform, doesn't mean you can interrupt your mother and father showing they love each other in front of their children, now get your stuff and change. We've got the fence to fix out back."
Sara and Jordan shared knowing looks and watched as Jacob groaned and grabbed his father in a bear hug. Grissom grunted and tried to pry his son's hands apart. Sara sighed and grabbed both by the collars. "Break it up kids and go play outside."
Grissom moaned as she pulled his collar harder when he wouldn't let his son's arms go. "Sara."
"No, behave. Pregnant woman and mom want a quiet house, not two boisterous children playing childish games." Sara released them both and watched as they went to collect bags from the car and get ready to work.
"That was cruel mom." Jordan giggled.
Sara smiled and sat down on the couch. "They'll be play fighting at the dinner table later and you know that they won't listen then." Jordan nodded and leaned back to close her eyes.
Grissom walked back into the house and mock glared at his wife. She raised her eyebrows at him and narrowed her eyes playfully as he held her eyes and climbed the stairs. Jacob came through the door with his one bag and some shopping bags. Passing the stairs, he went towards the back of the house were the den was.
Later that evening, Ian sat down at the table with Jordan and talked with Jacob about his leave.
"It's only four days, but hopefully I'll be back when the baby comes. I'm going to be an uncle. I'm not missing that." Jacob grinned.
Sara looked down at the hand that appeared on her knee and looked over at her husband. He smiled lovingly at her and turned back to the others. "How are you getting on in the army Jacob?" Grissom asked.
Jacob drank his water and thought for a minute. "Really well. I'm travelling a lot already. Meeting knew people. It's been three years, but the engineering corps is very challenging. It's like you said mom. The physics, numbers, engines, science. It's all there. Some of the guys think I'm too smart to be in engineering, but I enjoy what I do."
Sara leaned over kissed her son. "You do what you enjoy." He nodded and hugged her.
Jordan winced. "Well, baby is awake."
Ian covered Jordan's hands and felt the baby kick. "Strong. Footballer or weightlifter?" He chuckled.
"Well, either way. We're about to find out." Jordan cringed.
Sara and Grissom looked at each other, then back at Jordan. "Ian, call the hospital and tell them we're on our way." Grissom got up and crouched beside his daughter. "You having contractions?"
She nodded. "Every ten minutes."
Sara touched Grissom's shoulder and sighed. "We have to wait."
He nodded and looked over at Ian as he hung the phone up. "They said that once the contractions come every five minutes, then bring her in."
"Ok. Jacob, get the bag from the closet and put it in the car in case. Ian you sit with Jordan while we wait." Grissom stood and kissed Jordan's brow. "Hold in there."
She smiled. "I know. I went to the classes. I just didn't realise it would hurt so much."
Sara grasped Grissom's hand and pulled him to sit down. Grissom sat with Sara snuggled against his chest. Jordan was leaning against Ian and Jacob was sitting on the breakfast stool watching the clock.
Jordan went to stand and Ian helped her. "Let's go." She grimaced. "Five minutes."
Grissom and Sara got into the car while the other three sat in the back. On the way to the car, Jordan's water broke. Pulling up to the hospital. A wheelchair was already waiting for them. The nurse took Jordan and Ian into the depths of the hospital while Grissom, Sara and Jacob sat in the waiting room. Grissom filled out the forms and handed them in at the reception desk. Sara had fallen asleep after an hour of waiting. Jacob was pacing and Grissom held Sara close. They were all worried. Jordan's blood pressure was playing up during the pregnancy and she was in and out of hospital a few times to keep an eye on her and the baby.
Sara sniffled and Grissom pulled her closer. "She's going to be fine honey, don't worry." He whispered. Sara nodded against his chest and buried her face in his shirt.
Jacob went to the reception desk a few times within the 6 hours of waiting. Grissom had fallen asleep with Sara and were holding each other up. Jacob smiled when he came back into the room and gently shook his fathers shoulder.
"Dad."
"Mmm?" Grissom moaned and slowly opened his eyes.
Jacob threw a thumbs up. "Ian's coming now and the grin on his face is huge."
Grissom smiled and gently whispered into Sara's ear. "Jordan's had the baby honey. Wake up."
Sara opened her eyes and stretched. Ian walked into the room and Jacob hugged him. "Well?"
Ian waited for Sara and Grissom to stand and nodded. "Baby Boy. Mother and son are doing great."
"That's brilliant." Sara cried and pulled Ian into a warm hug. Grissom shook his son in laws hand and they all followed him to Jordan and the new member of the family.
"Hey guys." Jordan greeted tiredly.
Sara sat on the bed and hugged her. "Well done sweetie." Sara looked into the small bed beside Jordan and smiled. The blue fleece hat and baby grow was covering the small body of her grandson.
"You can hold him mom." Jordan said quietly.
Sara stood and lifted the small form into her arms. Grissom moved to stand directly behind her and placed his hands on her waist. "He's beautiful." Grissom whispered into Sara's ear.
"He is." Sara agreed and leaned back against her husbands chest. "What are you calling him?"
Ian sat on the bed with Jordan and took her hand. "We thought Matthew. After your father mom."
Sara looked over her shoulder at Grissom. He reached up and wiped the tear that fell down her cheek. "He would have been proud Sara." Grissom kissed her cheek and placed his hand on the baby's head. "Hey Matthew."
Grissom pulled away from Sara and turned to his son. He grabbed Jacob in a headlock and ruffled his hair. "Just because you wear a uniform, doesn't mean you can interrupt your mother and father showing they love each other in front of their children, now get your stuff and change.
