Catherine was almost running down the corridor only been held back by Warrick's firm hand gripping her arm. Nick and Greg were striding behind.

"Brass" shouted Cath causing him to shoot up from the chair he was sat in as the group approached the tired looking detective.

"What's happened? How is she? Where's Grissom?" Catherine's questions came out at high speed and almost in one breath.

"I'm waiting for news," said Brass offering Cath his chair as Warrick sat down next to him, Nick and Greg brought chairs across from the other side of the corridor.

"They've taken Sara for a emergency c-section she developed pre eclampsia. Grissom went into theatre with them that was twenty minutes ago. It was strange seeing Sara like that, so fragile looking"

"But their not due yet I mean that's not good is it?" asked Greg not having much knowledge on this subject.

"Apparently they have a good chance, I was talking to a nurse" said Brass sighing.

"GRISSOM" Nick didn't realise he shouted as he saw Grissom approach them. He was wearing a green gown and had a mask hanging off one ear. His face was one of complete shock and his eyes red and puffy looking.

"Gil are you ok? What's happening?"

"I'm a dad," stuttered Grissom stopping as he reached them. "I'm a dad" a smile broke across his face.

"Sara?" asked Cath

"They've taken her to recovery she's still asleep"

"Congratulations" Cath leapt up and hugged him "so what are? They how big? Come on" said Cath with the group now staring at Grissom like hungry piranhas.

"A girl three pounds six ounces and she's already got hair. A boy four pounds. Their so tiny" said Grissom with a he smile "they've taken them to NICU to monitor them, the boys ok I mean he's breathing on his own but he girl needs some assistance. They said that was normal because her lungs aren't developed. "I should go see Sara" Grissom was in his own world.

"When can we see them?"

"After Sara has" replied Grissom leaving them to talk excitedly "they said it might be a wile before she wakes up" he added.

Half an hour later and Grissom was sat next to Sara her hand held in his when he felt a pressure against it.

"Sara" he whispered as her eyes flickered.

"Hur"

"Sara it's ok, you're ok"

Sara didn't have a clue what was going on. She remembered felling really ill and now she was in bed and Grissom was sat next to her. Her stomach was hurting.

"Babies"

"A girl three pounds six and a boy four pounds. Sara their beautiful, you did so well" he grasped her hand with both off his.

"Their ok" asked Sara this registering in her head. "I'm a mum"

Just then the doctor came in.

"Mrs Sidle your awake, you had us worried there for a bit" smiled the man Sara scarcely remembered.

"I want to see them"

"I thought as such someone's bringing them down form NICU"

"NICU" questioned Sara her head still coming back into focus with the world. She reached out and took Grissom's arm finding her own having a IV taped into it.

"Because they were premature they need a bit of extra help but their doing well" he reassured her as the door open again and two incubators were wheeled in and placed next to the bed.

Sara struggled sitting up so Grissom helped her whole body ached and her arms felt weak. But nothing was going to stop her seeing her babies

"Oh my god their so tiny" Sara reached out putting her hand against the side.

"Would you like to hold them?" asked the nurse who had come down with them. Not waiting for answer she began opening the side of one.

"Got any names?" she asked.

Sara looked across at Grissom who nodded. They had discussed names earlier.

"Holly Louise and Brandon James Sidle"

"Well here's Holly"

She handed them small girl wrapped in a blanket to Sara. The wire stretched across the bed mixing in with the ones attached to Sara.

"And here's Brandon" with a bit of difficulty Sara shifted Holly in one arm and Brandon was paled on her other. He had less wire stretching across.

"Their beautiful, look what we made," said Sara tears running down her face.

"I know," replied Grissom getting up and smiling at Sara.

"Guys" Grissom head poked round a door at the bottom of the corridor and in stead if finding just Catherine as he expected he found everyone still sat there including Brass and Sofia who had heard and joined them.

"I'd like you to meet some people" smiled Grissom as they filed silently into the room.

"This is Brandon and Holly"

There sat on the bed was Sara holding a white blanked in one arm with a tiny hand and arm poking out of it. And in the other with no blanket was the smallest thing Greg had ever seen. Arm and legs so tiny and fragile yet laid so still while their chest rise and fell.

"Their gorgeous" said Cath fighting tears back.

"They so small" said Greg as Sara smiled at him.

"Gil" Sara he'd her arm out indicating she wanted him to take Brandon. With such a gentle touch Grissom lifted him from her arm and cradled him in his own.

"Look at you the perfect family" smiled Warrick.

THREE YEARS LATER

"Lindsey please get of the phone it's not stuck to your ear is it" shouted Cath as the teenager sat on the arm of the chair talking away.

"Oh let her off you know that Terri's been going out with Lee whose going out With Lisa," mocked Warrick as Cath gave him a gentle slap round the ear before leaning in and kissing him.

"Oh I better go mum and dad are doing gross things," said Lindsey flipping her phone down.

"I don't think I'll ever get used to that," commented Warrick as Greg came running in from the kitchen.

"Greg what have you done?" asked Catherine at the guilty look on his face.

"Me?" asked Greg

"Yes this isn't your house you can't break everything in it" warned Cath

"He did it," shouted a child's voice before one came running into view. Stood in front of Greg in the doorway was a small boy. His brown hair was quite long at the back and looked like it had been a struggle to comb. He had a green top sporting a large picture of a grasshopper and a pair of shorts also green, he barley reached Greg's knee in height.

" Brandon" Cried a girl's voice coming running through. Despite been opposite sexes the resemblance was obvious as the two toddlers now stood in the hallway. The girl had a yellow dummy hanging out one side of her mouth and was dressed in a pair of white sort and green strappy top. Her hair was dark brown, long and thin it hung in slight curls below her shoulders.

"What are you all up too" asked Grissom coming in from the hallway.

"Dad Greg made a mess" smiled the boy as the girl nodded along with him smiling.

"Holly do you really need that thing now?" asked Grissom as she ran up to him he lifted her up trying unsuccessfully to pull the dummy from her mouth.

"Hey Gil do you know there's something purple on your floor"? Asked Nick coming through the kitchen.

"It was the twins," said Greg pointing at Brandon who burst into laughter

"No" he giggled. "It's my birthday, no trouble," he pleaded laughing as Greg grabbed him turning him upside down and carrying him into the living room before placing him onto the sofa.

"When are we getting cake?" asked Lindsey as Brandon crawled across the seat to her smiling

"Cake" he smiled. "I liked your cake," he said pointing at Warrick and Catherine

"That was wedding cake I don't think you'll be getting any more of that" smiled Warrick as Brandon half fell half got of the sofa and ran over to the several balloons tied to the table in the middle of the room.

"Cake" cried Holly as Grissom put her down and she ran over to her brother.

"You have to wait for mum," explained Grissom

"MUM" cried both the twins.

"Shush" warned Grissom putting his finger to his lips "Lauren might have been asleep"

"Oh" shouted Brandon at Holly waving his arms "you woked her up"

"Woke," corrected Holly making Cath snort with laughter

Just then from down the corridor Sara Sidle appeared on her hip and clinging onto her arms was a little girl. Dark brown hair sticking out below the white hat round her head.

"Lauren" cried Holly as Sara placed the little girl down on the floor who immediately began to crawl haphazardly around.

"Wow she's grown how old is she now?" asked Warrick

"Thirteen months" replied Sara

"Cake" demanded Brandon

"Come on then lets get your cake, Lauren" Sara almost had to run to stop the girl from crawling straight into the table.

"Wow she moves fast smiled" Warrick as Sara picked her up.

"Bet you can't wait until Carley starts crawling" smiled Sara looking over at Nick as crying came form down the hallway.

"Speak of the devil" smiled Nick getting up and disappearing, A few seconds later he returned with a child no more than four mouths been rocked in his arms.

"Wow that's better than you did when she was first born, do you do dipper duty?" asked Greg mocking Nick

"She was so small I didn't want to hurt her"

"Nice excuse man" said Warrick nodding a Nick tried to defend himself

"Pity Julie couldn't make it" smiled Warrick as Lindsey dragged him into the kitchen

"I can't help but feel you missed out on the sleepless nights"

"What you wait until they start dateing" smile Cath as Grissom groaned.

"CAKE" came the cry of everyone under eighteen and who could talk.

"Ok cake" said Grissom going to the fridge and pulling out chocolate cake. After placing it down he lit the candles and everyone gathered around. The twins stood on chair with Grissom poised to stop them from falling off as they tried to shove to get a better view. Lindsey was stood in front of Cath and Warrick at one side. Stood next to her children was Sara holding Lauren who was stretching her arms out protesting at been held again. Next to her was Nick holding Carley who still had her sleep suit on and on the end was Greg who suddenly shouted excitedly.

"Wait" with that the doorbell went and Greg ran returning seconds later towing his fiancé Judy

"Better late then never" smiled Judy fitting herself in next to Greg

"Ok go make a wish" said Grissom as they blew out the candles.

"Do you know how may different DNA samples that has on it" started Greg

"What's DNA?" asked Brandon

"dnoxybosenuc….acid" said Holly trying to sound it out and coming out with something that could almost be understood "mummy told me"

"Well we know who they take after" laughed Cath
