Chapter 12

"Sara we're here." Nick said as he turned off the truck and got out. Sara didn't flinch. "Come on Sara the drive over here was only ten minutes, you fall sound asleep that fast." Nick said as he opened her door.

"Oh sure ruin in a girl's fun!" She said keeping her eyes closed.

"And what fun would that be Ms. Sidle?"

"Well I was trying to be sleeping beauty, and awake at true loves first kiss, but I have no clue where that Knight in shining armor is." She sighed. "Must be on vacation."

"Then I guess you'll have to settle for me." He grinned and leaned into her and kissed her softly. He tried to pull away when Sara pulled him so that he was practically on top of her. His hand quickly found its way up her shirt caressing the soft skin on her stomach.

"Ahem, uh am I interrupting something?" Nick and Sara jumped at the sound of a voice from a few feet away. Nick released his grip on Sara and stepped out of the truck.

"Uh Warrick, was just umm I was uhh…" Nick didn't know what to say. His face turned beat red.

"You were giving Sara mouth to mouth recucitation with your tongue?" Warrick laughed. Then looked at Sara who was giving him a death stare.

"Yea that's it. Um anyways, let's go see Cath. Did Grissom tell you what happened?" Nick found his voice again and helped Sara out of the car.

"Yea, Cath was shot. He said it wasn't to bad, but that she was unconscious and that she lost a lot of blood."

"OK, the let's go see her." Sara chimed in. She took Nick's hand in hers and intertwined their fingers. As they walked into the emergency room, they saw Grissom sitting in a chair with his eyes closed, and Lindsey sitting on his lap, also asleep.

"Aww, isn't that sweet?" Sara whispered.

"Yea just don't let Grissom hear you say that, you'll ruin his all bugs no social life reputation." Warrick whispered back.

"I'm gonna find out how Cath is doing" Nick said as he walked to the Nurses station. Warrick and Sara sat down in chairs next to Grissom. Lindsey picked up her head and yawned.

"Uncle Warrick, Aunt Sara do you know if my mom is OK?"

"Not yet sweetie, but we'll know soon." Sara smiled and ruffled the little girl's hair slightly. Nick walked back over to where the rest of the team was seated.

"OK Cath update. She is doing fine, and we can all see her as soon as Grissom wakes up."

"I'm up. Come on Linds, let's go see your mom." Grissom said as he got up still holding her in his arms. They walked to Catherine's room in silence. Grissom was first to see her. She was awake and drugged.

"Hey Linds! How'smy baby?" Catherine said as Grissom set Lindsey down on Catherine's bed.

"Good, Uncle Grissom said that you were shot. Did it hurt?"

"Yea it did baby. Hey Linds can you run down the hall and get me a soda? Hospital food sucks." Catherine handed her a dollar from the side table. Lindsey quickly left the room.

"Hey how are you feeling Cath?" Sara asked sitting down in a chair next to her bed.

"Like I've been shot duh!" Catherine laughed.

"Yea stupid question. OK how did you get shot?" Sara asked again.

"Well I was collecting evidence at a scene when BANG! I heard a gun fire the next thing I knew I was bleeding, my eyes were heavy and I was being taken to the hospital, never saw the guy." Nick made his way behind Sara and rested his hands on her shoulders and began to rub them gently.

"Well we're all glad you're OK. Well I've got to go, process your scene that you created!" Warrick and said and Catherine shrugged innocently.

"Yea we should be going to. Get some rest Cath." Nick said as he and Sara left the room.

"So Cath, you always going to get hurt everytime you want to tell me something?" Grissom asked moving closer to Catherine's bed.

"Well if you hadn't called Mr. Grissom I could have been paying attention to what I was doing." He sat down on her bed and took her hand in his.

"Well I think I can make it up to you, I'm just glad your OK." He planted a soft kiss on her lips as Lindsey walked into the room.

"Eww you guys get a room!"
