Today was the day she had been waiting for. December 16th, her wedding day.
After Sofia was charged with Ecklie's murder, Sara and Gil decided to go ahead with the original date that they had planned on for the wedding. It was only two weeks after she had been charged but they wanted to keep some kind of normalcy in their lives. Their engagement had already gon on for to long.
Sara sat in her dressing room at the Rampart. Sam had given them a deal on the rooms. With her were her sister Krystal (Maid of Honor), along with Catherine and Lindsey (Brides Maids) and her little angel, Hope.
"Are you nervous auntie Sara?"
"No. Do you think that its weird that I'm not worried about this?"
"I think its great that you're not nervous. Think of it this way, at least you wont throw up on him when you get to him, right."
"If I did it wouldn't be from cold feet."
"You're pregnant?"
"We decided to go off the pill. Since I had the twins it has been making me really sick."
Warrick walked in on the last part of the conversation. "Well, at least Gil isn't the only one getting sick."
"He's sick? I have to go to him. Gil Grissom does not get sick!"
"You can't Sara. It's a rule, he can't see you on the wedding day."
"I don't care Catherine. He needs me and I'm going to him. Oh, could you not mention what we just talked about. I don't want Gil to know yet. That goes for you too Lindsey."
XOXOXOXOXOX
Gil was sitting on the bathroom floor with his back resting on the bathtub. When he looked up and saw Sara he found his face back in the toilet bowl. Sara just sat there and rubbed his back until he sat back up.
"Baby, what's wrong?"
"I don't know. All morning I was in a kind of daze. After I got my pants and shirt on it all kind of hit me and I just started throwing up."
"Here, brush you're teeth and I'll get you some soda crackers. They helped a lot with mymorning sickness."
"Thanks"
Five minutes later Sara re-entered the bathroom.
"Why aren't you dressed yet?"
Sara looked down and realized that she was only wearing her slip. Laughing she said "oh god. I was so worried about you that I didn't even notice. Catherine tried to tell me to put something on but I just ran out of the room. Hey where's John?"
"I told Nick and Greg to take him for a walk. I know he wont remember this but I didn't want him to see daddy like this."
"I love you babe. Do you feel any better?"
"I actually do. Seeing you so calm has helped a lot. You look beautiful."
Nick and Greg walked back into the room, not expecting to see Sara, especailly not the way she was dressed.
"Are we interrupting something?"
Sara looked at her slip again. "No Nick. Warrick came to my room and said that Gil was sick. I just came to make him feel better"
"I'm sure you did!"
"Shut up Greg!" came from both people on the floor.
"Where is my baby?"
"He fell asleep when we were walking around. I put him in the playpen."
"Okay. I'm gonna go back to my room and finish getting ready. I love you Gil, feel better soon okay. No more getting sick."
"I love you too." Gil leaned up and gave Sara aquick kiss.
XOXOXOXOXOXOX
"How is he?"
"Better now that we talked. I am a little embarrassed though. I can't believe that I went down two floors in nothing but a slip and a lot of make-up. I probably looked like a hooker!"
"Did you tell him?"
"I think I'll wait till were at home. That way if he needs to get sick at least he'll be at home. Anyways, we have a wedding to get ready for!"
XOXOXOXOXOX
An hour later Gil was standing with Warrick, Nick, Greg, and Brass by his side.he was staring at the big oak doors that seperated him from Sara, as they oppened. Krystal, followed by Catherine, and Lindsey, who was pulling a small wagon down the aisle with the twins in it.
As the wedding march started to play Gil felt like pissing his pants, then he saw Sara. Her gown was fitted to the waist and fell from there to the ground like a weeping willow's branches fall. Her hair was pinned up and her Vail fell perfectly to her waist. He thought to himself that if there weren't so many people he would love to jump her right there and take her on the floor. It was a good thing that his hands were hanging in front of...well his thing.
XOXOXOXOXOX
The ceremony went on without a problem. They were officially married now.
The reception was being held at the Grissom house. In the backyard a small stage and dance floor had been set up. As the music played in the background Sara and Gil swayed along with the music.
They had been dancing for a while when Sara whispered in Gil's ear "I'm pregnant!" when she pulled away to look at his face her smile faded.
Gil stopped moving and just stared at her. People were starting to stare at them.
"What!?" It was barely a whisper but Sara heard it.
"I'm only six weeks along."
"Sara, can we go talk about this somewhere more private?"
"Sure" She turned to her friends and excused herself and Gil.
Up in their room away from prying ears, and eyes, Gil paced the floor.
"Gris, talk to me. What's wrong? I thought you'd be happy."
"Sara....you just got back to work. Now you're going to be back on desk duty, and then comes the maternity leave..."
"What's wrong with you? What, do you want me to get an abortion? Would you have preferred that I aborted the twins?"
Before Gil could respond Sara stormed from the room. She ran out to the yard, tears streaked down her face.
"Catherine, I need to get away from here. I need to somewhere, anywhere but here. I can't be here right now, not with HIM."
"What happened?"
"Can we talk about this later. I just want to get away from here."
XOXOXOXOXOX
Catherine drove to a secluded little pond that Warrick had brought her to when he proposed. While they were sitting Sara told Catherine what happened. Without warning Sara grabbed her stomach and began throwing up. At first Catherine thought she was just stressed about the fight. She quickly realized something was wrong when Sara fell of the bench and she saw the blood.
XOXOXOXOXOX
