"Morning Mommy," Andrew said and hopped down to hug her. Mother, Father and son watched TV.
"Andrew said that he wants to take the bone marrow test," Nick whispered in Sara's ear.
"Really," she said aloud, turning around and looking at Nick.
"Yeah," Nick replied. Andrew just stared at them.
"You'd do that Andrew," Sara asked.
"Do what mommy," Andrew asked.
"Test your bone Marrow for a match," Sara answered.
"Yeah for Jamie," he said. Sara hugged him close.
"You are the best son anyone could have," Sara said.
"Thanks Mom," Andrew said. Nick ruffled up Andrew's hair.
Then the Grissom family stepped in. Grissom held Matthew.
"Hey," Grissom and Catherine said, passing the McDonalds bag to Nick.
Nick stood up to receive the bag and said "Thanks, for getting us McDonalds, what do I owe you."
"Nah don't worry about it Nicky," Grissom said.
"Sure," Nick asked.
"Yeah," answered Grissom.
"Thanks, very much," Nick said.
The Grissom family sat down, there was only three chairs, so Matthew sat with Lindsey. They were chatting when the nurse stepped in.
"Mr and Mrs Stokes, I have the results," the nurse said.
Nick stood up and walked to her, she showed him the paper. His face went sad and pale.
"Thanks, oh and um can my son take the test," he said to the nurse.
"How old is he," she asked
"Six," Nick answered. "Yeah, I'll just get my equipment for it," she said and left.
"It wasn't a match was it," Sara said.
"No," he said, Sara turned her face to look at Jamie.
"Sorry, Nick," Grissom said.
"Andrew, I told the Nurse, she's coming to get you in a sec," Nick said.
"Will it hurt daddy," Andrew asked, looking up at his dad.
Nick bent down and said to him "I'll be there with you."
"What is Andrew going to do mom," Lindsey asked Catherine.
Sara answered "he's going to give his blood to see if there's a match."
"Oh," Lindsey said.
The Grissom family just stared and watched what a terrible time this would be for the Stokes family.
The nurse returned and said "Mr Stokes would you like to come."
"Yeah," he said and picked up Andrew and walked off following the nurse.
"Aunty Sara, where did Andrew go," Matthew asked, standing next to Sara.
"He went with Uncle Nick, to give his blood, to see if there's a match with Jamie," Sara said.
"Oh," Matthew answered, he walked back to Lindsey.
"Indsey, Tolie," He said.
"come on," Lindsey said.
"Dad, Mom, we're going to the toilet," Lindsey said.
Both Grissom and Catherine nodded their heads. Lindsey and Matthew walked off.
"You have a bright little kid there," Sara said.
"Thanks," Catherine said.
"I mean how much courage, does a six year old kid have to actually come up with to come up to a person like me and tell me that my daughter will be okay," Sara said.
"You also have a bright kid Sara," Catherine said. Lindsey and Matthew returned. "I know, Andrew he's the best son I ever had," Sara said. Nick returned carrying Andrew, who had red puffy eyes. Nick passed Andrew to Sara.
"What happened honey," Sara asked.
"The...The needle thingy...it hurts," Andrew said.
"I know honey, it'll be all okay," Sara said, hugging him close.
"Okay, we better go," Grissom said, standing up.
"Bye, and thnks again," Nick said.
"We'll come back, maybe in the after noon," Gil said.
"Do want us to get you lunch," Catherine asked.
"No, it's okay, we'll manage," Nick said.
"Okay, bye," Gil and Catherine said.
"Bye Bye," Matthew said.
"Bye," Lindsey said.
"Bye Lindsey, Bye Mattie," Sara and Nick said.
The Grissom Family left. "How did Andrew take the needle," Sara asked Nick, looking at Andrew who was asleep.
"He was pretty afraid, of the needle though, reminds me of when I was younger, I used to be terrified of needles," Nick said, smiling.
Sara smiled at him "You used to be terrified of needles," Sara asked.
"Don't laugh, used to be terrified," Nick said.
"Like father like son," Sara said.
Nick placed his arm around Sara, and placed his other hand on Andrews Head.
"I hope his blood is a match," Nick said.
"yeah, I love you Nick," Sara said.
Nick kissed her forehead. Sara turned around.
"Do you still remember the day I had Andrew," Sara said, with a smile.
"How could I forget, it was the day I became a father, one of the best days of my life," Nick said.
"I was so happy, and still am, I really love our kids Nick, and you too, you made my dreams all come true," Sara said, with a smile.
"And you made all my dreams come true too, my dream was to be with you," Nick said.
"Me too and also have kids, which I already have," Sara said, looking at Jamie and Andrew.
Nick looked at Jamie "Jamie really looks like you," Nick said.
"I remember that day, when we brought Jamie home, still a baby, Andrew was only 2, he would always play with her, he really loves her," Sara said, stroking Andrews hair.
"I remember that night, I woke up, sometime in the middle of the night, I heard you singing, I walked to Jamie's room and saw you singing to Jamie, I loved your singing," Nick said.
"It was the only way to get her to sleep," Sara said.
"Remember her 2nd birthday, the whole team were there even Archie and David, Greg would always play with all the kids, Lindsey, Matthew, Andrew, Jamie, Ella," Nick said.
"Wow, I haven't seen Ella for a while now," Sara said. Ella is David's daughter.
Then the Nurse stepped in..............................................
Is the answr going to be a yes or a NO? Will Jamie have hope to live once more?
