Chapter 7

She smiled opened the door and left Nick's room and wandered back to where Warrick Grissom and Catherine were waiting. Tears were streaming down her face.

"Mrs. Stokes! What's wrong?" Warrick asked, Catherine ran to her and gave her a hug.

"Oh it's nothing dear. Just happy." She smiled and wiped away a tear with her finger.

"Why? What happened?" Grissom stood up.

"My boy is in love with a wonderful woman."

"Yea we know, but they don't." Catherine stated and sat back down.

"They do now!" Catherine jerked herself back into a standing position.

"Really?" Nick's mother nodded quickly as more tears of joy streamed down her face. "That's great! And it's about time!" A doctor walked up to them.

"Hello people, yea um you can see Nick now. Sara is already in there. They can both leave as soon as I get this paperwork done OK." He smiled and turned away.

"Well let's go see the two love birds," Catherine said and headed for Nick's room. Grissom just rolled his eyes. Catherine entered the room first followed by Grissom, Mrs. Stokes, and Warrick shushing them each as they entered the room. Catherine pointed to the bed where they saw Sara resting her head on Nick's chest, and had an armed draped around his waist. Nick had his arms tightly wrapped around her body. They were both sound asleep.

"What should we do?" Warrick asked.

"Just let them sleep dear, it's been an emotional couple of hours for both of them." Nick's mother smiled and kept her eyes locked on her son.

"Well I've still got work to do back at CSI. I'll see you guys later. Tell them to take the next few days off." Grissom glanced at Catherine. She winked at him; he smiled and left the room.

"Yea I've got a case that needs some tending to, so I guess I'll see you later to." Warrick waved and left. Catherine sighed and sat down.

"Well I'm staying." Se stated matter of factly.

"So am I dear, you know I was worried about Nick when her first moved here, but now that I've met you and Sara, I think I'll be able to sleep better at night." Catherine blushed.

"Well thank you."

"Your welcome dear." About a half an hour later the doctor came into the room and said that everything was clear, and they could leave whenever they felt.

"Thanks doc." Catherine stood up and walked to the side of Nick's bed that Sara was on. "Sara, Sara it's time to go home." She cooed. Sara's eyes fluttered open.

"Hey Cath," She smiled.

"Hey yourself, let's get you up and dressed, it's time to go home." Sara nodded stood up and headed for the door. "I'll take Sara home, if you want I could take Nick home as well." Catherine called back to Nick's mother who was trying to wake him up.

"That would be nice, seeing is how I don't know where he lives, and I certainly don't know my way around the city."

"OK, I'll meet you down stairs." Catherine got Sara dressed and put her into her truck then set Nick beside her. Immediately they cuddled back together and fell asleep.

"Yea we know that, but they don't." Catherine
