Nick was laying across from Sara at the other end of the room, watching her. *It's all my fault, it's all my fault that Sara is like this. I shouldn't have been flirting my ass off, I should have been driving. Shit.* The doctors left the room and only Nick and Sara were in the room. Nick got up off his bed and went over and knelt down next to Sara.
'Come on Sara, you can't leave me now we still have to go out to dinner tomorrow night. You said that you would go with me.' A silent dinner ran down Nick's face which he left all and ran down onto Sara's cheek. He kissed the tear.
'Nick?'Sara's eye fluttered open.
'Sara, I'm so sorry. Do you feel ok?'
'We still going out tomorrow night?' Sara smiled.
'Sure.' Nick bent over and kissed her on the lips, 'Are you feeling ok?'
'My leg feels funny.' Sara tried to move her toes around.
'Yeah, well you broke it, and you have a couple cracked ribs.' Sara noticed the bandages on his wrists.
'What happened?'
'I sprained both my wrists and got 15 stitches in my head, no big deal.' Nick pointed to his forehead.
'Ouch, I'm sorry.'
'No I'm the one who should be sorry Sara. I put you here.'
'No you didn't Nick, stop blaming yourself.' Sara tried to sit up but couldn't because of a sharp pain from her ribs.
'Shhh, baby don't do that it will only make things worse.'
'MR. STOKES! What are you doing go sit back in your bed, and leave Ms. Sidle alo- Ms. Sidle your awake too!' Exclaimed one of the nurses.
'Yeah, I went threw the Enter sign.' Sara said smiling.
'I'm sure you did.'
Back In The Waiting Room . . .
Catherine's head was on Grissom's shoulder sleeping. Greg was curled up in a ball sleeping in a awkward position in the chair. Warrick was pacing. A doctor came into the room and called over for Grissom, but decided it was best to go over to him.
'Mr. Grissom?' Asked the male doctor who looked about in his late forties.
'Yes.'
'Ms. Sidle was woke up, and Mr. Stokes can leave now if he wishes.'
'Hows Sara doing?'
'She's fine, a bit in pain from her leg but other wise she's fine.'
'Can we them now?' Warrick came over and stood next to the doctor.
He nodded, 'Room C202. They are both in there. The doctor left, Warrick went over and woke up Greg and Grissom woke up Catherine.
'Cath, Cath, wake up we can go see Sara and Nick now.' Grissom gently shook her.
'Not now, you can have pan cakes in 15 minutes Lindsey.' Catherine mumbled.
'Cath it's me Gil, your boss. But could I really have pancakes?' Grissom joked.
'Gil?! Sorry thought you were Lindsey.' Catherine sat up ad rubbed her eyes open.
'What about my pancakes?'
'Screw your pancakes, what do you want?'
'The doctor just came and said that we could go and see Nick and Sara.'
'But isn't Sara in a-'
'She woke from her coma and she's fine.'
'Oh.' Catherine and Grissom got up, then went over to Warrick who was getting the 'family dog.'
'Hey look the love birds got up.' Greg said.
'Hey Cath was the only one sleeping Greg. Let's go.' They walked into room C202 where they saw Nick sitting in a chair next to Sara's bed. Sara was laughing at something. Her face was bruised black and blue and Nick had stitches across his forehead.
Warrick coughed and the two looked at them, 'Hey guys.' Sara smiled weakly at them.
'Hey Sara, hey Nick you two ok?' Catherine said sitting on the edge of Sara's bed.
'I've been better.' Sara turned to Nick, 'What about you sweetie?'
'Heck this is nothing, doesn't hurt that much.' Nick whispers into Catherine's ear, 'She's on a lot of morphine don't listen to what she says much.'
'The doctor said that you could go home tonight Nick, you can't drive for a couple of days though.' Grissom told him.
'Alright.'
'What about me?' Sara asked.
'Your not going anywhere's fast kido.' Warrick said to her sitting on Nick's empty bed.
'Why not Warrick? I'm fine.'
'You just came out of a coma Sara, not for a couple of days until you can get back home. Even then you'll not be in work for a while.'
'I wasn't in a coma, I was talking to River.' Everyone looked at Sara funny, 'What? I did.'
'Ok everyone out, Mr. Stokes you can leave now. Everyone out of this room, Ms. Sidle needs her rest.' Said the nurse. Everyone got up and left the room, leaving Sara alone with the nurse.
