Chapter 13

Sara had gotten everyone together in the break room at the lab to tell them the news. Mia started crying receiving a hug from Warrick.
"What about the baby"? Warrick asked with concern.
"I'll most likely deliver early".
"Will you have to go through chemo again"? Greg asked.
"I start that this afternoon". Sara replied.
Grissom wiped away a tear that had formed in his eyes.
Catherine put her arm around Grissom.
"Does Brass know"? Warrick questioned.
"No, and he's not going to take it very well if I know him". Nick replied.
Sara nodded, "Lindsey didn't exactly take it well either". Sara responded.
"We're all here for you and Nick, if you need anything you just ask". Grissom said with a sad smile.
Nick nodded in response.

Sara had arrived at the clinic for her first chemotherapy session in over 14 months. She had started already to lose some hair. Catherine had bought her a beautiful scarf to put over her head. Ecklie had already mentioned something regarding her head gear and Grissom put him in his place. Grissom had become protective of Sara ever since she had been diagnosed with leukemia and ever since then she and Grissom had been very close.
Brass had received the news and immediately headed over to the Desert Palm Oncology clinic.
Sara looked up from her chair and smiled at Brass.
"JT is with Nicky, I just had to come see you". He said leaning down to kiss her cheek.
"Was he a good boy"? Sara asked.
"He was a perfect angel, and how are you feeling".
"Queasy, but I'm doing ok". Sara said grasping Brass' hand.
Brass nodded.
Sara looked at Brass trying so hard not to cry.
"It's ok to cry Sara".
"I've done so much crying the last few days I have no more tears left". She said with a sigh.
A nurse came into the room where Sara was, "Well, Mrs. Stokes you're all done for today".
"Thank you". Sara replied.

Brass took Sara back to the lab where everyone was still gathered.
Everyone left shortly after Sara's return and went to their respective homes.
