"Tell him I'll be there in a minuet"
"Okay," the scared secratary to Gil practically ran out of there. Catherine closes the file and gets up and walks to Gils office. She knocks on the door," Come in," she goes in and sits across from him," What is so important that I needed to be pulled away from my great case reviews"
"Well you tell me"
"What am I telling you"
"I believe two years ago today you were standing in a church marrying the man of your dreams and six months ago told him you were pregnant"
"Yeah and he happens to be sitting right across from me"
"Really where"
''Right here," she pokes his nose with her manicured nail," Ah yes I am that man," she smiles one of the award winning smiles she was known for," Happy anniversery Gil"
"Happy anniversery Cath
"And how is my baby boy"
"Athletic"
"Oh Cath you okay"
"Yeah a little sore but okay"
"You wanna go home shift's over"
"I'd love too"
"Okay give me a few minuets and I'll meet you in your office"
"Okay," she gets up and walks back to her office whilst Gil looks at the picture on his desk. It was of him, Catherine, Lindsey, and Regan, their black lab from Christmas the year before. He wasn't completely sure Catherine was comfortable with having another baby after losing one when they first got married.
FLASHBACK
"Cath, Catherine," he walks into their bedroom to an unconsious Catheirne laying in a pool of blood on the floor. He rushes over to her and takes her pulse it's slower than normal. He calls the medics and grabs her hand. After a while the medics come and take her away and Gil is sitting in the hospital waiting room crying," Mr Grissom"
"Yeah"
"Your wife is fine but she did lose the baby"
"She just lost a baby how can she be fine"
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to imply that"
"Where is she"
"Follow me," the doctor takes him to Catherine's room. Her small fragile body was laying there in the bed curled up crying," Catherine"
"Go away"
"No Cath I'm not going to leave you I've left you too much"
"Please Gil I just lost my child I wanna be alone"
"Our child Catherine I told you when you told me when you were pregnant that you would not go through this alone"
"Gil they cut our child out of me do you really want to look at me now"
"Yes because when I look at you I see our baby it wasn't your fault nor was it mine it just happened. It happens everyday I am not going to stop loving you with all of my heart just because it's gone if anything I love you even more because you can deal with this...better than I can even dream, you showed me emotions and I'm glad you did because now I can greive instead of saying I'm fine"
"It is a girl and if you talk to a doctor they'll show you her"
"Cath..."
"Just look at her at our daughter"
"Okay," he gets up out of the chair and goes to find a doctor. He finds one," I was wondering if you could um help me"
"Sure what with"
"My wife she had an emergency C-section and the baby died I was wondering if I could see her"
"Um yeah follow me and give me your last name"
"Grissom"
"Excuse me did you say Grissom"
"Yes why"
"In here," she takes him into a room, a normal hospital room," Your wife requested the baby be put in here"
"Thank you," he walks over to the small cot and looks at the small baby wraped in a pink reciveing blanket he picks her up and cradles her next to his heart," I'm so sorry," he lets the tears escape his eyes as he puts her back down and walks out back to Catherines room. She was still crying," Cath I looked at her and I held her and to tell you the truth I never thought I would hold my own daughter in my arms Cath I don't care if she's gone the point is she's still here as long as we believe she is"
"I just want my baby girl back Gil"
"I know so do I"
"You think we should give her a name"
"Yeah you want to go with the one we picked out"
"Yeah"
"Okay so her name is Elizabeth Margret Catherine Grissom"
"Just don't tell anyone yet okay"
"Yeah"
END FLASHBACK
He gets up from his desk and walks to the door of Catherines office stopping at the door loking in as the sun from the window kissed her skin she looked like the angel she was. She was holding a frame in her hand he knew what picture it was it was the last picture taken of her before she lost Elizabeth and there was a small inset of Elizabeth herself," Cath"
"You wanna go out it's been a while"
"Yeah sure," they walk out of her office his hand around her waist hand cradleing her stomach feeling his son kick.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They walk over to the small headstone marked Elizabeth Grissom. Catherine eases down on to the ground in front of it siting indian style holding one red rose in her hands," Hey baby I know it's been awhile since me and daddy have been out here. I'm so sorry we love you sooo much and wouldn't know what we'd do if we didn't have you here to remind us of so many things that we never would have thought about you were our godsend don't ever forget that," she kisses the rose and places it down on the head stone," God rest your soul Elizabeth Margret Catherine Grissom," Gil sits down next to her saying the same prayer he said everytime. Grissom was not religious but Gil was ever since that night. In his head he recites the prayer,' God save our souls so we may rise to heaven peacefully rested to watch over the ones we love,' a tear escaped down his face. He noticed Catherine muttering something under her breath. He began to make it out,' Let her be free and roam let her do the things she wants to do. Let her be the free spirit she would have grown up to be,' Catherine looks up into the trees as the tears stream down her face. Gil tugs at her arm helping her up they turn around to Sam Braun," Muggs..."
"I don't care anymore I want you to be there I grew up too long with out a father. Screw my job if that means losing it just so my children can know you than let it be," she walks over to Sam and hugs him with all her heart," I was there"
"Thank you"
"Catherine she was lucky to have you as her mother so is this one and Lindsey but I don't want you to give up anything you don't want to"
"I'll give it up just so my children have a grandfather"
"I'm sorry"
"So am I," Gil hated Sam but Catherine was right Lindsey needed to know her grandfather before she ended up dead trying to get to him," Cath"
"Sam you remember Gil"
"I wished on more pleasent circumstances but yes I do"
"We got married two years ago and I know you guys have had your differences just let it work for my sake"
"I'll try"
"Walk with me Muggs," Catherine grabs Sams hand and walks with him just going over countless memories as Gil trailed behind them. They stop at Tonys grave and Sam throws down one red rose," Il dio conserva la vostra anima per tutti noi ( God save your soul for all of us )
"Graces del dio con i riches lui dispises con la morte" (God graces with riches he dispises with death)
"Sam"
"The crest for the Braun family 'God graces with riches he despises with death' back from the mob days it just stuck. I got out but I never escaped the family but I got a legacy and that legacy is you"
