Chapter 34

"Grissom?" Sara shouted when she walked into the townhouse. I'm in the nursery." She heard him shout.

"You want something to eat? I'm going to order some Chinese," Sara leaned against the door of the nursery. The sight before her was priceless. Grissom's jeans were covered in yellow paint. "What happened?" Sara pointed at his jeans.

"I tripped over the bucket with paint," he said shyly.

"Shit happens," Sara giggled and stepped into the room. "Do you want some Chinese or something else?"

"Chinese is fine," he answered and tried to clean up the mess but in the process, he made it worse.

Sara was still laughing when Grissom looked up. He walked up to her and crossed his arms in front of his chest. "Are you making fun of me?" he said a little too serious, that made Sara laugh even harder. "Please...stop," Sara begged.

"Stop what?" Grissom came even closer and brought his hands up to her face.

"You wouldn't," Sara said through her tears.

"Wouldn't what?" he grinned and placed both hands on her cheeks. He removed them and looked at her. "Yellow looks good on you," he seriously said. Sara started to laugh again. Suddenly Sara sank to the floor and clutched her stomach. Grissom immediately crouched down next to her. "Honey, what's wrong." Grissom looked at Sara's painful expression. "Is it the baby?" Grissom started to panic. "It's time," she replied and pointed at her stomach, "she wants out."

Grissom called the hospital and told them that they would be there in ten minutes. After the conversation, Grissom shoved his cell phone back in his pocket. He helped Sara up and they slowly walked towards the door. "Do you have your keys?" Sara asked him and tried to breath as normal as she could.

"Yes," he quickly said and opened the door. Moments later they arrived at the car and Sara got in. Grissom ran around the car and got in himself. He started the engine and broke the speed limit to get to the hospital.

Ten minutes later, Grissom and Sara arrived at the hospital. Two nurse waited already and the entrance with a wheelchair. They helped Sara out of the car and into the wheelchair. "We bring your wife to floor 4," one nurse said to Grissom. He nodded and drove away to find a parking area. Two minutes later, Grissom ran into the hospital to find Sara. Reaching the 4th floor, he asked a nurse for Sara.

"Your wife is in room 4C," she said to him and pointed in the direction of the room. Grissom walked as fast as he could towards the room. When he walked into the room, he saw that she was hooked up to some machines. He sat down next to her and grasped her hand. "Are you ok?" he asked. Sara nodded and suddenly she squeezed painfully in Grissom's hand. "An other one?" he asked. When he saw her nod, he leaned forward and kissed her temple. "She wants to meet us...now," Sara weakly said. "It's going to be alright," Grissom said nervously.

Sara's doctor walked into the room and looked at the couple in front of her. "Hi Sara. How are you feeling?" she said when she looked at the chart. An other contraction hit when Sara wanted to answer the question. The doctor checked how far she was dilated.

"Mr. Grissom, can I talk to you?" the doctor asked him.

"Sure," he replied and followed her outside. "Is everything ok?" he worriedly asked.

"She's fine. I had a conversation a couple of weeks with Sara, she was a little upset." The doctor looked at Grissom.

"Why?" Grissom started to panic now.

"Sara told me what happened to her," she said carefully.

Grissom sighted and looked down. "She's been through a lot."

"I know that Sara's brother is very important to her, maybe you could call him and ask him if he could come and see her." When Grissom nodded the doctor walked back into Sara's room. "Doc?" Grissom called after her. "Yes." "Tell Sara that I going to right back." The doctor nodded and closed the door.

Grissom called Sara's parents and told them what was happening. They would come over immediately. He asked them about Sara's brother. Mrs. Sidle gave him Florian's number and hung up the phone. Grissom immediately punched in Florian's number. After a couple of rings, he answered the phone. When he heard that Sara was in labour, he said that he would take the next plane to Vegas. Grissom thanked him and hung up the phone.

We walked back to Sara's room and sat down next to her. "I called your parents, they're gonna be here soon," he told her and kissed her. "Thank you," she whispered and grasped his hand. "Oh, and I called Florian too." Sara looked at him and a tear escaped her eye. She pushed herself up and hugged him. "Did you call the gang?" she asked when she laid back down. "Shit, I forgot," he said embarrassed. Sara smiled and squeezed his hand. "Go and call them," she chuckled. "You're going to be ok?" he didn't want to leave her alone. "I'll be fine Gil. Go!" she said and pointed at the door.

Grissom called Nick and told them what was happening and asked if he could call the others. When Nick agreed, Grissom hung up the phone and went back to Sara.
