Chapter 4

Grissom sat there for what seemed like forever but there was still no change. The nurses would come in every now and then to check her vitals. Her temperature had not improved as they were hoping, and her breathing was struggling. Dr Stephens told Grissom that if it did not improve they might have to think about putting her on a ventilator, something Grissom did not want to have to think about yet.

Catherine was having a hard time settling Mille, for she missed her mother and did not know who Catherine was so she decided to bring her back to Grissom for some comfort.

Catherine appeared in the doorway with Mille by her side.

"Hey there" whispered Catherine

Grissom started walking towards them but did not get far as Mille ran straight into him

"Daddy" she started to cry. Grissom picked her up and just rubbed her back

"Hey its okay" he whispered.

"What is going on" he asked Catherine

"Sorry Gil, she has not been herself since we left and has been crying for you and Sara. I think she should stay with you, she is scared and has no idea what is going on or who we are"

"Okay"

"Here is a blanket and some food for you guys. Call me with an update soon" asked Catherine

Grissom sat down with Millie in his arms and was about to say something to her until he noticed she was fast asleep in his arms. He noticed she was holding something in her hand. He gently removed the scrunched up paper to which it revealed his business card with Sara's writing on the back.

If you are in danger, call daddy. He will know what to do as he loves us.

Grissom turned to look at Sara and just sighed

"That is right sweetheart, I do love you both, please wake up so you can hear me"

**************************************

3 hours later and Grissom had finally fallen asleep with Mille still sleeping soundly in his arms. The next thing Grissom heard was a faint voice

"Gil, please help me, please" moaned Sara

Grissom had to work out where he was for a while and then realised it was Sara. He jumped from his chair and managed to not wake Millie.

"Its okay Sara, you are safe"

"Gil, is that you" moaned Sara. "Where am I"

"Sweetheart you are in the hospital and you are safe"

"Millie" Sara asked

"Is fine, she is sleeping soundly. You have raised a beautiful daughter, well our daughter. She is perfect"

"Sorry Gil, I know you are mad and I am still too, but can we do that later" asked Sara

"Sure, are you in pain"?

Sara nodded. "Gil my head is really sore and everything is still blurry"

"Not to worry, I will get the doctor"

"Hello Sara, I am Dr Stephens. Now Gil tells me that you have a sore head?"

Sara just nodded.

While this was going on a sleepy Millie woke up

"Mommy"

"Hey baby, Sara said without turning her head, just stay where you are for the moment ok"

"Daddy pick me up please"

Grissom bent down and picked her up

Sara was to dazed to know what was going on

"Sara look straight ahead for me while I shine this light into your eyes"

The minute Dr Stephens flashed the light into her eyes, Sara could keep her eyes opened.

"Okay Sara, how many fingers am I holding" asked Dr Stephens holding two fingers up

Sara paused for a moment, "umm four" she asked

Both Grissom and Dr Stephens looked at each other but Millie who did not notice this simply said

"Mommy, don't be silly he was holding two fingers up" Millie stated

"Shh. Mommy's just got a sore head so is a bit confused Millie, okay" said Grissom

"Okay"

"Dr Stephens, what is wrong with me"

Grissom put Millie down and went and grabbed Sara's hand.

"It appears that you have a nasty concussion but I want to rule out anything more serious so I want you to have a CT scan okay"

Sara just nodded. I will get the nurse to make the arrangements and we will come and get you when we are ready. Try and relax Sara as you are in the best hands.

"Come on Sara, just relax" said Grissom while holding her hand.

Millie came and sat on his knee and crawled up to Sara and gave her a kiss , please get better Mommy. The bad man is gone now so please get well.

With those words tears streamed down her face.

Grissom could not believe what a wise and smart daughter he had. He just hoped and prayed that soon they would all be together and happy as a family should be.
