Catherine had arrived with the paramedics followed shortly after Warrick, Nick and Greg, All were told including Sara to stand back while they worked on Grissom, who had lost consciousness.
"Can't you do something" cried Sara as she stood there looking down at Grissom. "Sara their doing everything they can. Let them do their job".
"We've got a pulse, we need to take him to Desert Palms right now or he won't make it" yelled one of the paramedics. "I'm going with him" Sara said as she jumped into the ambulance.
"So I guess someone else will be getting his job" Greg said aloud only to have faces stare at him.
"Greg, Grissom is going to be fine. No one is going to get his job" said Catherine. "I didn't mean Grissom, I mean Ecklie" he answered as he pointed to the van that the corners were loading his body into.
"Come on guys, we need to start processing" Catherine said as she picked up her kit.
"But Cath, it's an open shut case. Ecklie was behind the whole thing, what's to process?" asked Nick.
"We know what happened and why, but we still don't know what happened here. And until we can get Griss' statement, we need to process", she answered.
A few hours later:
"Sara...have you heard anything yet" asked Doc Robbins as he took a seat beside her. Slowly Sara lifted her head, he could see the redness in her eyes,
"They were still in surgery last time they told me anything." she said as she tried to fight back the tears.
"I'm sure he'll be okay. He has a lot to live for now" Doc said as Sara looked into his eyes. "I know about the baby Sara" he whispered.
"I can't do this...I can't raise this baby without him" she cried. Pulling her into his arms, Doc kissed the top of her head. "You don't have to worry about that, because I promise you that it will not come down to that".
"Hey, you guys heard anything?" asked Catherine as she and the guys came walking into the waiting room, only to see Doc Robbins with his arms protectively around Sara.
"No, not yet, we're still waiting", Doc answered.
"Did you find anything out at the crime scene?" asked Sara as she lifted her head to see Catherine take a seat beside her.
"We'll know once we get Grissom's statement, but looks like it was self defence." answered Catherine.
"I'm sorry Catherine?" whispered Sara as she looked at Catherine. Confused Catherine looked back,
"Sorry about what" she asked.
"I should've listened to you and stayed at the lab", she said. Taking Sara's hand in hers, Catherine grinned, "And if you had listened, we probably would be at the morgue instead of the hospital. It was your not listening that saved his life" .
"Saved his life, he's still fighting for it on that table", Sara said with tears forming in her eyes again.
"He's still fighting for his life, but we've given him a better chance" the doctor said as he walked into he waiting room.
"I'm assuming your all here for Mr. Grissom?" he asked.
"How is he Doctor?" asked Sara. "He had a lot of damage done to his left knee, but we were able to repair it. He also had a GSW to his abdomen but it wasn't severe. We were more worried about the leg and his shoulder, muscle damage to his shoulder was more than we thought. Once he wakes up, he's going to need a few more surgeries to get it back together"
"Can we go and see him?" Catherine asked, as she saw the anxious look on Sara's face.
"Only for a few moments...there's one more thing that I should let you be aware of" the Doctor said as he stopped Sara from leaving the room.
"What's that?" she asked.
"Mr Grissom, crashed on the table, he had lost a lot of blood, now we were able to stabilize him...but he's' fallen into a coma".
Short sorry, I know. PLease R/R and I promise you'll get more..soon.
