I'm not even going to waste your time apologizing for it taking forever, cuz its always the same excuse. So, whatever. I did my best. So here you go. Enjoy.

AN: I was reading over this story and I noticed like a chapter or two back that it kind of seemed Sandleish. Which, is not true. I already have GSR stuff because its cannon and there is no secret love affair and Sara is not falling in love with Greg. Which ever chapter it is that she rubs his forehead, not a sign of loverness. Its just that she is trying to take care of him, ok? I just don't want you all getting the wrong idea. Ok, now enjoy.

Sounds were the first thing to slowly fill her tired mind; though they did not help her figure out where she was, or why she was there. The actual room she was in was quiet, but the sounds of people rushing around and talking outside of wherever she was trickled into her room.

Smells came eventually. It was at this point she knew where she was when the unmistakable smell of a hospital filled her nostrils. And of course, the night's events came rushing back to her as she thought of any reason why she would be asleep in a hospital.

Flashes of Regie, Diana, Mallory, a gun, the girl, the flashing lights, Greg, the explosion…

Her eyes snapped open and her breathing quickened. She looked around her room, half expecting to see someone there, but was relieved when she saw no one. However, that feeling quickly faded when she realized she was alone. Why it was bothering her so bad, she didn't know, but she definitely did not like it.

As if on cue, the door to her room creaked a bit and slowly opened revealing Warrick, Nick, and Catherine. They all looked at her, as if surprised to see her awake, but they quickly smiled and stepped quietly into the room.

Sara was still a little unnerved, but was much more relieved to be surrounded by her friends, though slightly disappointed to notice Grissom missing.

She really didn't expect him to come though anyway, at least not with everyone else.

Sara stopped thinking about Grissom and focused on the people with her now.

"Hey girl, how ya feelin?" Warrick asked, his hands in his pockets.

Sara smiled. "Pretty good."

"You guys scared us pretty bad." That weary smile Sara hated to see was plastered on Catherine's face.

"But not anymore, right? We are all out of the woods now?"

Sara saw their faces dim and a nervous exchange of looks.

Sara's heart had once again stopped.

Apparently, Nick knew exactly what she was thinking, so he quickly spoke up.

"No! Greg is alive if that's what you're thinking. He just isn't.. completely out of the woods." His voice fell a little towards the end of his sentence.

"But, the doctors said he has a good chance, and they apparently thought he had lost more blood than he really had, so that's a good sign," Catherine added, noticing that Sara was not satisfied with Nick's explanation.

True, she would have rather heard that Greg was very much alive and there was no doubt that he would remain that way, but he was still alive, and that would do for now. Sara clamed herself a little, and felt better as she thought about the situation: Sara had been sure Greg had died a couple times that night, when he was really still alive, so it was obvious that he was strong. The thought relieved her.

"Where is Grissom?" Sara asked, changing the subject that was obviously a very sensitive one.

"He's upstairs waiting on Greg to get out of surgery." Catherine said calmly.

"He's been in here a lot though, we've been taking turns staying with you two."

Sara nodded.

"So, how long do I have to stay here?" Again trying to change the subject.

"Oh, not long. You only hit your head which is why you passed out. Probably from exhaustion too. Other than that, cuts and bruises." Catherine answered.

The fact that Warrick and Nick weren't saying a whole lot was making Sara feel bad. She didn't blame them though. Warrick was never exactly talkative, especially during emotional times like these. And Sara knew that Nick was upset about what had happened. The whole team was good-hearted, but none as sensitive or caring as Nick. So Sara knew that this was a very hard night for him. And then of course she knew that Nick had a good relationship with Greg, and he was obviously worried for his friend's life.

Sara looked down at her feet.

"Sounds like I got lucky, huh?" Sara's attempt at optimism seemed to lighten the mood a little, which made her more comfortable.

"Yeah," Warrick replied, "I think you did."

They sat quietly after that. Finally, the door opened and a man walked in. He was wearing the white coat and had a clip-board in his hand.

"Ah, Ms. Sidle, glad to see you awake. I'm Dr. Epps, and I am happy to tell you that everything is fine with you! We dressed a couple of wounds on you, including your head which was only bad enough to knock you. However, we want to make sure that you rest some more, so we're going to keep you here for maybe two to three hours, just to make sure everything is, and will continue to be fine.." The man talked fast and was abnormally up-beat, especially since is was around 6 in the morning. Must be lots of coffee, Sara concluded.

Sara wanted to scream at the thought of staying in the bed any longer but instead asked the doctor a question.

"Thank you Dr, you um, wouldn't happen to know anything about a Greg Sanders would you? He was brought in around the same time as me."

Dr. Epps looked back down at his clipboard and turned some pages. He looked back up at Sara.

"He was taken up to surgery.. And it seems as though he is in serious condition, but I honestly think that the guys upstairs will be able to keep him alive and well. But, you would be better talking to them upstairs. Are you all here for him as well?" The doctor asked.

They all nodded.

"Ok well, I'll tell you what. I think it would count as resting as long as you stayed in a wheelchair."

Sara smiled.

"But you really do have to stay in a wheelchair. And after you found out some information, or see him or whatever, you come back down here, lets us check you out, and hopefully you will be able to leave. Got it?"

Sara nodded. She smiled at Nick, Catherine and Warrick and slid over to the wheelchair when the nurse brought it in.

And they were off to the elevator, and eventually to see Greg.

Yeah, I didn't have Greg in here at all, except in spirit. I know I suck, I'm sorry. It hopefully won't be long before the next one is out. I'm guessing that it will be the last chapter of this story.. But who knows? Anyways, sorry for the shortness, but I figured that because I didn't do enough with Sara and the team, I would do it now. So, hopefully everyone is somewhere near being equally happy. Thanks everyone for reading, and if you have time, comment:)
