Sara didn't know what was happening. She remembered seeing a gun and ducked down as quickly as she could. Then, the room went dark. She could hear someone talking to her. It sounded like Greg, but she couldn't pin point where that sound was coming from. She could feel her spirit start to rise above her body. She couldn't leave. Not now. Her life was finally starting to take shape. She had a man who loved her and a baby that they created together. Gil. How could he go on without her? She did not want to know. She willed herself to stay, just awhile longer.
"Sara, Sara, can you hear me?" Greg asked. He was a nervous wreck. He had been trying for what seemed like hours to find some sign of life from his co-worker. "Come on Sara, I know you can hear. Don't leave." Then it happened. Sara's eyes fluttered open.
"Greg, what happened?" She asked. Her voice was weak and raspy. Sara slowly lifted herself off of the ground with the aid of the table. "Shot's were fired at the window, but you ducked in time." "Then why do I feel so dizzy?" Luckily Greg was able to catch Sara before she fell to the floor. He gently placed Sara on the floor, being very careful not to hurt her. As he moved his arm from her neck, he noticed that it was covered in her blood.
"I need a medic in here now!"

Warrick and Grissom had just finished processing a crime scene 50 miles away from C.S.I. Evidence was bagged, pictures were taken and witnesses had been interviewed. Grissom was looking forward to returning to CSI and spending some quality time with Sara. It seemed as if he was always at work and never spent any time with her. He knew this upset Sara. She never said anything. She knew that his work was important to him and she was willing to take a back seat, but not all the time. It was because of Sara that he knew there was more to life then solving crimes and learning about bugs. He was so anxious to teach his unborn child all about the wonderful world on entomology and forensics.
His daydream was interrupted by the shrill ringing of Warrick's cell phone. He looked on as the younger CSI's complexion paled and a worried look crossed his face. Warrick slowly snapped his cell phone shut and walked toward the car.
"Griss, get in the car. The evidence can wait."
"Warrick, what are you talking about? This is a hot case. We just can't forget about the evidence."
"There's been a shooting at CSI. Sara has been taken to the hospital." Warrick saw the fear appear on Grissom's face. His body began to move on its on volition. He had to get to Sara. From Warrick's expression, he could tell that Sara's condition was worsening by the minute.
**************************************************************************
Nick and Greg had been by Sara's side the entire time, while Catherine stayed behind to process the scene and find out who was behind this. Grissom would have wanted it that way. They had been allowed into her room a few minutes before. The doctor informed them that the situation could have been a lot worse than it was. Luckily, it was a through and through shot underneath the collar bone with no extensive damage to any organs. She would be fine in a couple of days, but was put on strict bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy.
"I'm glad that I'm not Gil," Catherine joked. They all laughed. No one wanted to job of keeping Sara off of her feet for 22 hours a day. Just then they heard a whirl wind of activity. People were banging into walls, clipboards, and stethoscopes where hitting the floor. Nick and Greg could only grin as their frazzled boss entered the room. Gil almost began to yell when he noticed that Sara was asleep.
"Can someone please tell me what happen?" Gil said as he made his way over to Sara's bedside.
"Well, we were in the DNA lab." Greg began. "Sara was taking a break from paperwork. I was about to analyze the swabs from the floater case when Sara noticed someone was staring at her. Then he pulled out a gun." Greg couldn't continue. At that moment, Grissom knew that Greg had saved of the lives of the woman he loved and his unborn child.
"Do they have any leads?" Grissom asked. "Yeah," chimed in Catherine, who was eager to tell her C.S.I. family what she had learned. "It was Hank." Four heads spun around at once. "He was mad that Sara and Grissom were together, and his thinking was, if he couldn't have her, no one would. When he realized that he shot Sara, he panicked and turned himself in."
"Well, that settles that," Sara said. No one had noticed that Sara had woken up. They all breathed a collective sigh of relief. Grissom was quick to get her a drink of water.
"How are you feeling?" "Just fine, the doctor says that I am lucky and that there will be no problem with me carrying the baby to term.
"That's great." Gil noticed that Sara and the rest of the team were leaving out a very important part of the story. "Now what aren't you telling me." No one wanted to be the one to drop the ball.
"My doctor put me on strict bed rest for the duration of the pregnancy," Sara replied with a smile on her face. Grissom's face paled in an instant.
***************************************************************************
It had been weeks since the shooting at C.S.I. and Sara was completely healed. But she could not force the image of Hank pointing the gun at her from mind. There were several nights when she would wake up in a cold sweat from the vivid images. She always felt comforted by Gil's strong arm around her shoulder. The soothing rhythm of his heart beat always lulled her back into a restful sleep.
Grissom had tried everything. Emphasizing that Hank was in jail and could no longer hurt her. That the baby was going to be ok, even though he was losing his mind trying to keep Sara from wallpapering the nursery. Throughout the pregnancy, Grissom realized something. He could not live without Sara, nor did he want to. Sara made him feel alive when he was surrounded by the dead. Sara made him whole. Gil had never felt this way before in his entire life and he did not want this feeling to go away. He was going to ask Sara to marry him.
A/N: So, I though that this was going to be the last chapter, but I changed my mind. Next one will be up soon. I promise. Thanks for the reviews!!! B.
