Chapter 2
I sit in the window of my apartment, Grissom and DCF had argued for a good hour over the phone, neither one of them gaining ground. For the moment he had agreed for me that I was going to be watching the infant until further notice, and I had to go into DCF tomorrow and start her paperwork. Warrick came in, seeing me. "Hey there."
"Hey."
"She sleeping?"
"Yeah." Looking over to the small bundle on my bed, he smiles.
"You look tired, why don't you take a break."
"I'm okay." he nods, leaning down to give me a quick kiss. "Why don't you go to sleep, you have to be at work in a few hours."
"Alright."
"I'll see you in a bit. Careful of the baby."
I stand from the window about an hour later, seeing Warrick laying on his side, the baby next to him, still sleeping. Taking a long shower, unwinding from the day. I step out, taking the shirt off of the counter, probably what Warrick was going to wear to work, but oh well. I slid it on over my head, slipping into the opposite side of the bed. Laying my hand gently on the babies chest.
I open my eyes at the loud whimpering beside me, reaching out to ease her. "Shhhh it's okay. Go back to sleep." I whisper softly, what would you know, no such luck. Rolling over; I spot the bottle Warrick left in the warmer for me before he left for the night. Taking it out and testing it before offering it to the baby. I smile as she greedily sucks down the bottle. I close my eyes, remembering the way that Warrick left early, waking me only to tell me that he was leaving and giving a quick kiss. Something I have grown so used to now, that it barely bothers me enough to wake me up.
*************************************************************************************
The phone does wake me though, answering it with a grunt.
"Sara?"
"What?" I practically growl out of the phone, between work, Warrick and the baby, I am getting no sleep.
"You need to bring the baby into DCF in 2 hours. Thought that I would call and get you up."
"Right, thanks." not at all meaning it.
Standing in the conference room as the woman enters. And of course she was an hour late; "Ahh, you must be Sara Sidle?"
"Yes,"
"And this is the infant in question?" Looking at the small bundle on my hip, smiling widely as she smiles at her before hiding in my shirt.
"Yes."
"We got her name from the grandmother. Andrea Ann."
"Oh thank god, I was tired of calling her baby."
"So you agreed to look after her until we can placed her in a home."
"Yes."
"Good, you just need to sign a few forms, things like that."
"Okay. What about her grandmother?"
"She was convicted of Murder, she has a record now. That woman gives me the creeps."
8 weeks later
I turn towards the CSI lab, Grissom was waiting for me at the front steps. "What's up?"
"How you holding up?"
"I'm settling into it."
"Where have you been taking her to be watched during the day?"
"To Warrick's Grandmother's. She has fallen in love with her."
"How did you get her to do it?" I shrug, not wanting to explain it out. Warrick and I didn't want to bring our relationship into the open, and so far it was working. He raises an eyebrow but doesn't question me.
"I got a call from DCF, they said that your paperwork would be ready by the end of the day, and to be there at 5:45 to sign it." I nod, smiling slightly. "Does this mean that she will be finding her new home?" I smile at him, seeing his questioning glance.
"Yes, it does."
