"Grissom...can you hear me?" asked Catherine as she learned closer to him.
"Every word" whispered Grissom as he began to open his eyes.
"Oh my god...I can't believe that your awake. I'm going to go and get the doctor" she said as she headed for the door.
"Cat...where's Sara" called Grissom, catching Catherine before she left.
"I sent her home, she's been worried sick about you. I told her to go home and get some rest", she answered.
"Can you tell her that I'm going to be okay?" he asked.
Nodding her head Catherine smiled, "No problem".
"Yes, he's awake. I know. I called Sara, I told her that he was fine. Really he is. Okay, the doctor is in with him now. Alright, I'll see you guys later. Bye" Catherine finished as she placed her phone back in her pocket, in time to see Sara walking down the hall way.
"I thought you were going to stay home and rest" asked Catherine.
"I needed to see him...to really make sure that he's okay" Sara said.
"Well you can see him, but only for a few moments" the doctor said as he came walking towards the two. As they both thanked the doctor, Catherine watched as Sara headed for the door.
"Your not going to come in?" asked Sara. "
I've already seen him...you and Grissom need time together now. I'll be right here if you need anything", Catherine said with a smile on her face.
Nodding her head, Sara walked into the room, with tears forming in her eyes.
"Honey..why are you crying?" asked Grissom as he could see the tears.
Running to his beside, Sara quickly threw her arms around him. "I thought I had lost you" she cried. As he held her in his arms,
Grissom lightly kissed the top of her head, "It's going to take more than Conrad Ecklie to keep me away from you.
"How's he doing?" asked Brass as he came walking up beside Catherine. "
Sara's in with him now, he seems to be doing good considering", she answered.
"This is only the beginning for them...Gil is going to need more surgeries to repair his shoulder completely. I was talking to the doctor and because he also had a lot of damage done to his knee from the car accident, it'll take a miracle for him to get back into the field", said Brass.
"As if that's not enough to deal with...a baby on the way as well. Their both going to need all the support they can get from us" Catherine added.
"Sara what's wrong?" asked Grissom as Sara slowly pulled away from him. "There is so much that I had...have to tell you..that I just don't know where to begin" she whispered.
"Well...why don't we start with what we are...going to name the baby" he said.
Lifting her head, Sara was incomplete shock, "How'd you know?" she asked.
"I looked at the evidence...not feeling well...not eating much...or eating way too much" answered Grissom.
"Really...how'd you find out?" she asked.
Smiling Grissom lowered his head, "I heard Catherine mention it to me when she thought I was sleeping" he said with a chuckle.
"But it doesn't matter how I found out, the only thing that matters is that...we're going to have a baby".
"I was so afraid that I was going to have to raise the baby on my own, and that was the last thing that I wanted to do" Sara said, as she tried to fight back more of her tears.
"Sorry are we interrupting anything" asked Jim as he Catherine walked into the room.
"Jim...glad to see your up and around" Grissom said with a smile, happy to see that his friend was recovering well.
"Yeah well, I hope that in a few days or so I can say the same about you. You know that you have a long road ahead of you...both of us" Jim said looking at the two of them.
Sara looked at Brass than at Grissom, "We know" she whispered.
"But you also know that you have the team to help you out. We're here for you no matter what. So whether you like it or not...your stuck with us" Catherine said with a chuckle.
"And that means all of us" added Warrick as he, Nick, Greg and Doc Robbins all came walking into the room.
