****Chapter 12****
Sara opened the door to the lab slowly as she balanced herself on her cane. Grissom reached over her shoulder and pulled the door wider. She smiled at him and continued to walk steadily towards the front desk. Grissom signed in and grabbed his messages while Sara signed in and talked to the receptionist. He smiled at them and waited for his wife to finish catching up.
Turning to her husband, she reached out for his hand and held it tightly as they walked towards the locker room. Nick was standing by his locker, pulling off his coat and hanging it up. Sara walked into the room and shrugged her coat off. Grissom put it in his locker with his own and helped her into her lab coat. Nick gave her a quick hug and gave her a kiss on the cheek before leaving for the break room. Grissom picked up his briefcase and headed for his office. Sara went the opposite way to his office and followed Nick's trail to the break room.
Sitting down and talking intently were Catherine and Warrick. Nick was watching the news with a coffee in his hand. Seeing Sara walk into the room, Catherine gasped and jumped up.
"Oh my god, you're walking." She hugged her gently. Warrick stood and did the same.
Sara grinned and moved to sit on the couch by Nick. He sent her a smile and handed her his coffee. "I'm proud of you sis." He whispered and turned back to the TV.
Grissom strolled into the room and went straight for the coffee pot. He poured himself a cup and sipped at it as he sat on the arm of the couch Sara was sitting on. He flipped through the case assignments and mentally placed his team to the cases.
Sara leaned her head back against her husbands thigh and lifted her legs onto the coffee table. She drank her coffee and watched the news with Nick. Grissom held out the case slips and told them what needed to be done and when to inform him.
As Nick stood to follow Warrick, Grissom stopped them. "Before you go guys." He said softly and smiled as Sara looked up at him. He placed his hand on her shoulder and squeezed it. "We have some good news."
"Great news." Sara whispered and smiled over at the eagerly awaiting people by the door.
Grissom chuckled and leaned down to kiss her hair. Looking up at the others, he smiled. "We're having a baby."
Catherine squealed and rushed over to hug them and the boys practically did the same. They had all been waiting for this moment and since the accident, they didn't know whether it was still something the couple wanted. Obviously, that question was just answered.
"This is great." Nick exclaimed. "I'm gonna be an uncle."
Grissom stood and helped Sara stand. She pulled him to her and hugged him tightly. "No matter how long it takes Gil, we will have a baby." She quote back his own words on a whisper, into his ear. His arms tightened around her.
"I think we've waited long enough." He whispered back.
THE END
(I wasn't sure how to end this, but perhaps it was best to stop before a new story could be born. I thought it was best to just leave it and leave you to use your imaginations on what happens next. Hope you liked it and please tell me what you think.)
