Chapter Seven ;
Gil didn't know what to say. He was surprised, he hadn't expected what Sara had said. She had just told him that she loved him. Gil got up from the bed and went into the washroom. Now he was the one who needed the long bath. Sara was right, the bath was relaxing.
---
About an hour later, Grissom came out of the washroom. He had decided to put on the clothes that he had already been wearing. Gil walked into the part of the hotel room that had the beds.
"Sara!" Gil yelled. He ran out to Sara, who was lying on the floor. He looked at the door to the room, it was left open. Sara's Mother had found them. Sara wouldn't wake up. Gil called an ambulance, then called Catherine.
---
Paramedics came into the room and took Sara away on a stretcher. Catherine arrived just as they were taking Sara to the ambulance. Catherine went into the hotel room to find evidence. Gil went into the ambulance and rode with Sara to the hospital. She still hadn't waken up. Gil was told to go to the waiting room while the doctors looked to see what was wrong with Sara.
An hour went by, and Grissom was still waiting. He couldn't stand it, not knowing what was wrong or if she was okay. Catherine came into the hospital a few minutes later and sat down beside Grissom.
"Any news?" Catherine asked.
"Not yet." Gil answered.
"She's going to be okay. Sara's strong, she'll get through this." Catherine assured him. She paused. "I told Greg, Warrick and Nick to try and find Sara's Mother's location."
"Thank you." Gil said quietly.
---
Catherine had left a few minutes later. Grissom was left to wait, every minute went by as if it was an hour. None of the nurses had talked to him about Sara's condition. A couple hours went by. Gil waited as patiently as he could.
"Mr.Grissom?" A nurse called. Gil got up and walked as fast as he could over to her.
"Yes?" Gil said. The nurse directed him to Sara's room and explained what was wrong with her.
---
An hour later, Gil was standing in the hall outside Sara's room. Catherine walked up to him.
"Hi." Catherine said. Gil looked up and noticed she was there.
"She's still unconscious." Gil confirmed.
"What did the doctors say?" Catherine asked.
"They don't want to get my hopes up, but they think she'll live, but there is a chance she won't wake up." Grissom explained. Tears came to Grissom's eyes and Catherine walked away. Sara's Mother was winning.
