Disclaimer: Unfortunately, none of these characters belong to me, except for Elle and Harrison Stokes.
I didn't mean to gross anyone out with the last chapter, but I just felt like it was getting too heavy for my story. This is a happy story after all, and I just needed something to make it funny and light. Sorry if I disgusted you! ...........….............................................................. ...........….
"Hey buddy, sorry for that. It looked like apple juice." Nick said, as he helped Harrison get his shoes on. Harrison had spent the night in the hospital, Sara sleeping on the couch in his room, and Nick and Elle taking the empty bed next to his.
"Its OK Daddy" Harrison said, sucking on the lollipop the doctor had given him after his final examination.
"Are you guys ready to go?" Sara asked, walking in with Elle after signing Harrison out at the receptionists desk.
"Yeah, Mommy. Hey! Where'd Elle get that?" Harrison asked, eyeing the chocolate bar in Elle's hands.
"Well, she felt bad that you got a lollipop and she didn't, and they were selling them for 50 cents down the hall, so I got her one." Sara explained, helping Harrison down off the bed.
"That's no fair! I'm the one who got hit by the car!!" Harrison said, walking over to where Elle was standing.
"Want a piece Harrison?" Elle asked, sweetly.
"Really, Elle? You'll give me some?" said Harrison, slightly shocked by his sister's gratitude.
"Sure, Harry. You got hit by a car, and you're my brother.. Here!" she said, breaking a piece off the end and handing it to Harrison.
"Harrison, you might not want to eat that." Sara said, watching as her daughter handed him some of the candy bar.
"Why not, Mommy?" Harrison asked, taking a bite out of his chunk of chocolate.
"Because that's the end that fell on the floor" she said, causing Harrison to spit out the half-eaten chocolate onto the floor.
"Harrison!!" Sara yelped, as Elle laughed.
"Ew!! That's so gross, Elle. Is everyone trying to poison me?" Harrison asked. "First Daddy gives me the pee to drink, and now Elle gives me dirty chocolate!"
"Harrison, no one's trying to kill you." Nick said, helping Sara clean the chocolate off the floor. "But buddy, come on, you have to admit, your sister doesn't share chocolate very much. That should've made you think twice about eating it."
"I'm going to kill you, Elle!" Harrison exclaimed, running after his sister, ignoring the pain in his stomach.
"Hey hey" Nick said, picking Elle up off the floor as she ran into his arms. "Come on, you just got hit by a car. You can't run around like that, not so soon."
"Elle, once my ribs aren't broken anymore, I'm going to get you!" said Harrison, as Sara picked him up.
"Oh, Harrison, don't be such a poophead!" Elle said, as they walked out of the hospital and towards the car.
...........….............................................................. ...........….
As they walked into their home, they heard the crying of one baby and the noise of a frustrated Grissom.
"Please, Ethan, I've asked you for the billionth time to please be quiet." Grissom pleaded with the young child, as he heard a knock on the door and saw Elle run in with Nick behind her.
"Hey Gris" Nick said, patting the older man on the shoulder. "Here, give him to me."
As Grissom handed the crying child to Nick, he asked "Nick, how's Harrison?"
Nick looked from Ethan to Grissom. "Oh, he's fine. A few broken ribs, but overall, he'll pull through. He's a tough kid." Grissom nodded as Nick got back to tending to his son.
"Hi baby" Elle said to Olivia, who was just waking up, as Grissom walked over to her.
"Hey Elle" Grissom asked, rubbing the small girl's back.
"Hi Uncle Grissom!" she exclaimed, wrapping her petite arms around his neck.
"Are you being a good big sister?" Grissom asked, pulling at the t-shirt she was wearing, that he had given to her the day the babies were born.
"Yeah, I'm doing really good." she said, looking back into the crib. "Uncle Grissom?" she asked.
"Yes, sweetie?" he said, looking at her.
"Do you think the babies know I'm their big sister?" she asked, as she put her pointer finger to rub her little sister's hand.
"I think they know that you're someone very special, and someone that loves them very much. With time, they'll understand that you're their older sister - someone they can talk to and trust. But right now, I think they just know you as the pretty girl with the golden curls." Grissom asked, weaving his fingers through the back of her curls.
"OK" she said, giving him a kiss on the cheek and running out of the room. Grissom followed her.
"Hey Gris" Sara said, as they entered the living room where Sara was propping Harrison up on the couch. "Thanks for staying with the babies. Nick and I really do appreciate it."
"No problem, Sara. They really weren't a problem." he said, thinking back to the little bit of time where he was intoxicated, but he liked to believe it was all a part of something he liked to call Grissom's Ways to Taking Care of Infants. "Hey Harrison, how are you feeling?"
"OK, but Daddy made me drink pee and Elle gave me dirty chocolate" he said, resting his head on the pillow his mother had supplied him with. Grissom looked at Sara with a questioning eye.
"I'll tell you about it later." Sara said, as she led Grissom to the door. "Really, thanks again for staying with them. I'm.. Nick and I are grateful that we have friends like you guys."
"No problem, Sara. Really." he said, giving her a small hug and a kiss on the cheek. "I think you and Nick should take the next few days off, stay with Harrison, keep an eye on him."
"Thanks Grissom. Bye." Sara said, closing the door.
As she went back to the living room, she saw Harrison sleeping on the couch and Elle sleeping practically on top of him. She smiled, and went to tend to the children she had left for the first time by themselves overnight.
"How are they?" Sara asked, as she watched Nick rock Ethan in the rocking chair.
"They're perfect, just as you left them. You know, I didn't think you could be any more paranoid than you were when the twins were younger, but you cease to amaze me, Sara." he said, handing Ethan to her.
"I'm going to pretend you didn't say that." she said, cooing at her young son.
"Where are the twins?" Nick asked, getting out of the rocking chair and stretching out.
"They're sleeping in the living room. They were so tired." Sara said, as she placed Ethan back in his crib.
"Yeah, Elle didn't get much sleep last night. Kept kicking me in the stomach and her hand kept slapping me in the face." he said, making Sara laugh as they walked into the living room.
"Lets move them to their beds" Sara said, as they entered the living room.
"Oh Sara, look at them." Nick said, gushing over the affection his twins had towards each other.
"I know. The perfect family." she said.

Is this it? I don't know, maybe I'll find some sort of inspiration and update. Hmm.. you'll just have to wait and see. Read and review!!
