Alekxandra opened her eyes. When she was finally able to focus she realized she must be in a hospital, and she could hear the steady beep of machines. She tried to swallow realizing there was something in her throat, when she tried to lift her right arm it was heavy. Slowly she became aware of another sound, looking beside she saw Grissom sitting in a chair snoring softly as he held her hand in his. She watched him sleep noticing the dark shadows under his eyes. He must have sat here all night she thought. His eyes fluttered open and he slowly came to the realization that she watching him.

'Hey you' he whispered reaching out to gently touch her cheek. The look of happiness in his eyes made her want to cry, she slowly blinked trying to hold back tears. 'You gave me quite a scare earlier' she blinked again holding her tears in. 'I love you so much Ally, I can't let another day go by and not tell you' she felt his hand rubbing her hair, tears running down his face.

Alekxandra became faintly aware of someone else in the room, a nurse maybe fiddling with things. Ally didn't hear her, her eyes were fixed on Grissom, his blue eyes on her. He loves me she thought gently squeezing his hand.

Warrick ordered dinner over the phone and went into the lounge, he stood at the door watching for a moment. Lindsay was sitting with Jayne showing her a photo album and Catherine was sitting in the chair opposite them her back to him. He walked over to Catherine and put his hand on her shoulder. 'Dinner will be here in about half an hour' Warrick crouched down beside her chair and noticed her looking at him sleepily. 'Why don't you go take a shower Cath?' He reached up to push the hair out of her face.

'I think I will' she stood smiling at him before heading to the bathroom for a shower.

'Uncle Warrick come look at the photos with us' Lindsay beckoned him to sit beside her, she was showing Jayne a photo album. He sat next to her listening as she talked about the photos. They sat quietly listening as to Lindsay, when the phone rang. 'I'll get it' Lindsay leapt off the couch and grabbed the phone.

'Uncle Grissom' Warrick heard Lindsay squeal from the kitchen 'No mum's in the shower but Uncle Warrick is here if you want to talk to him.' Warrick walked into the kitchen and she handed him the phone.

'Hey Gris, everything ok?' Warrick smiled as he watched Lindsay bounce back into the lounge room.

'Ally's awake' the happiness in Grissom's voice was unmistakable.

'That's great let me go and get Jayne for you' Warrick carried the phone into the lounge to Jayne.

While Jayne spoke to Grissom Warrick went upstairs in search of Catherine, he didn't have to look far, he found her sleeping soundly on her bed wrapped in a towel. He smiled as he sat down on the bed beside her gently shaking her shoulder. 'Cath' he whispered, as her eyes slowly opened.

'Warrick' she mumbled a smile slowly forming as she snaked an arm around his neck pulling him in for a kiss.

Warrick smiled against her lips 'Grissom just called, Alekxandra is awake'.

Catherine smiled 'Thank god, does Jayne know?'

Warrick kissed her again 'She's talking to him now, why don't you get dressed and come back down.'

'I'll be down shortly' Catherine smiled at him as he closed the door and moved back downstairs.

Nick pulled into his car park and looked across at Sara who had fallen asleep on the drive home. He walked up and opened his front door, he slowly opened the car door slipping the seatbelt off Sara as he gently pulled her into his arms, and she murmured putting her arms around his neck. Nick gently pushed the car door shut and carried Sara inside gently putting her down on his bed, he slipped off her shoes as well as his own and lay down beside her.

Sometime later Sara woke to the sound of her cell phone ringing. She slowly shifted herself off Nick and walked to the kitchen to answer it.

'Sidle' she answered sleepily, rubbing her eyes.

'Sara? It's Gil, I'm sorry did I wake you?'

'No it's ok. What's wrong?' She sounded concerned now she was more awake. 'Is Alekxandra ok? Do you need me to come to the hospital?'

'Sara slow down' Grissom laughed 'She's awake.'

'Well is she ok? Can she talk? Is she going to be alright?' Sara's mind was racing.

'The doctors in with her now, they can't take the tube out until the morning that's all I know so far.'

'I'll come by to see her in the morning then' Sara smiled, he sounded so happy. 'You going to be ok Gris?'

'I'll be fine Sara go back to bed' She could hear him smiling as he ended the call.

Sara yawned and walked back down the hall to Nick's bedroom, she stood at the door smiling as she watched him sleep thinking that if you had of told her a month ago this is where she'd be she would have laughed. She lay back down on the bed resting her head on Nick's chest, smiling as his arms wrapped around her as he mumbled in his sleep 'love you Sara'.

'I love you too Nick' she whispered as she drifted off to sleep.

Alekxandra looked at Grissom her eyes pleading. 'I know you want it out Ally but they need to make sure you're going to be alright' he picked up her hand, stroking it gently. 'They're going to take it out in the morning, don't get yourself worked up about it, it'll only make things worse.' He gently stroked her hair avoiding the bruises on her face.

'You should really listen to your husband' the nurse that was checking Ally's drip smiled at her. Ally rolled her eyes and Grissom couldn't help but laugh.

'Someone's got to keep her under control' he grinned at her enjoying that she couldn't answer back.

'Well I'll be back to check on you two later' the nurse smiled at them and closed the door.

Grissom sat on the bed next to Alekxandra holding her hand in his, watching as her eyes started to close. 'You get some sleep Ally, I'll be right here beside you.' He leaned forward to kiss her forehead smiling. 'One day I'll make you my wife' he whispered as she slept holding her hand in his.

'Are you sure you don't want me to take you back to the hospital?' Warrick asked as he, Catherine, Jayne and Lindsay sat eating dinner.

'I can wait until the morning, I think we're all far to tired for that' Jayne smiled at Warrick.

'I'm not tired' Lindsay piped up as she bit into her pizza.

Catherine smiled 'As long as you know all you have to do is ask and someone will take you'.

Jayne nodded as they finished their meal.

Half an hour later after she had cleaned up from dinner Catherine walked into her lounge, she stood at the door smiling. Jayne had gone to bed and Lindsay and Warrick were sitting on the couch watching TV. Even though she had protested that she wasn't tired, Lindsay had fallen asleep in Warrick's arms. I could get used to seeing this Catherine thought as Warrick kissed Lindsay's forehead.

'Why don't you take her upstairs to bed' Catherine smiled as Warrick stood up gently lifting Lindsay with him as he moved towards the stairs. 'I'll be right behind you'.

Catherine pulled the covers down and Warrick gently set Lindsay down on her bed, kissing her softly on the forehead. 'Night Linds' he whispered moving to the door so that Catherine could say goodnight.

Catherine smiled at Warrick shutting the door behind her. 'Why don't you have a shower then we can go to bed' she pressed her lips to his kissing him slowly. 'Unless...' she trailed off smiling.

Warrick growled 'Cath as much as I want to we need to take this slowly' he pulled her into his arms kissing her slowly his tongue mingling with hers.

'Well I'm going to bed you take a shower and I'll see you soon.' Catherine kissed him again before walking into her bedroom.

Warrick sighed 'That woman will be the death of me' he grinned walking into the bathroom to take a shower.

Catherine undressed slipping into her nightgown and sliding under the covers, as soon as her head hit the pillow she realized just how tired she was. She was almost asleep when Warrick appeared at the door wearing only a towel. 'Uh Cath I don't have anything to wear' he swallowed a groan watching her.

Catherine reached into a drawer beside the bed producing a pair of boxers. 'These were Eddie's' she bit her lip 'I think they'll fit you.'

Warrick took the boxers from her sliding them up his legs before letting the towel fall.

'I just couldn't bear to throw them away' she whispered as Warrick slid into bed beside her, pulling her to him her head resting on his chest.

'It's alright Cath, I understand' he kissed her forehead slowly stroking her hair.

'Thank you' she murmured as she drifted off to sleep.
