Feeling another pain after an hour of driving, Sara knew her contractions had started.
Sara knew her situation was dire.
Going into labor with a psychotic woman who was holding you captive and who was in love with your boyfriend, was not good.
Hoping that Grissom would come to her rescue at any moment, Sara was suddenly overtaken by a wet sensation.
Knowing her water was breaking, Sara cursed, "Sofia, you need to take me to a hospital, please I promise I won't press charges, just please let me go."
Seeing Sofia laugh, Sara knew she didn't believe what she had just said.
"We both work in law enforcement and we both know you're lying. By the way, try to hold that stuff in, I like my car," Sofia said continuing to drive.
Feeling more tears coming down her cheeks, Sara started to sob.
--
After driving for longer than three hours, Sara became even more worried when Sofia ordered Sara out of the car.
Seeing that they were in the middle of nowhere with only a log cabin, she knew she was never going to be able to escape in her condition.
Feeling another contraction, she knew it would be hours before she would give birth and Sofia could do anything in that time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Lying on a mattress in the cabin, Sara felt another contraction grip her body.
The pain was like nothing she had ever experienced and seeing Sofia simply watch from a chair at the other side of the room; she knew she would receive no pain relief.
Screaming out at the pain she heard Sofia laugh.
"Make all the noise you want, Sara, no one is coming to your rescue," she said enjoying the pain Sara was in.
"Please Sofia, don't do this, Grissom is never going to want you," Sara said, not caring what she said.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grissom was beside himself with worry.
His beloved Sara, the woman he was going to propose to, was in the clutches of Sofia.
Pacing up and down in his office, he saw Jim come in.
"We had some calls about Sofia's car, we're about to…." As Jim was about to continue, he saw Grissom rushing out.
Knowing there was no way he could stop Grissom from coming along Jim decided he would at least drive knowing his friend was in no state to do so.
--
"What the guy said, means that they were in the area, but that was three hours ago," Jim told Grissom.
Starting to feel sick, Grissom knew they had to continue, before Sofia did something to Sara.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Sara felt another powerful contraction overtake her body, but no longer made any noise.
She knew that she would have to start pushing soon and was terrified.
After seeing birthing videos and reading her baby books, she knew that she could only push at certain times, but did not know when that might be.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Grissom was now more panicked, Sara had been missing 10 hours and there was no sign of her.
He looked down at Sofia's mother, who had been brought in for questioning and he knew she was not telling the truth.
"Come on, you know that if we find Sara and the baby alive, Sofia will not face the needle," Jim spat out.
"I just know she would never hurt anyone," her mother spoke back quietly.
"Well I have news for you, your innocent Sofia has been stalking her former supervisor and making up lies about a relationship she thinks she had with him," Jim said hoping he would get through to her.
"I have a log cabin, maybe she took her there," she said through tears.
Knowing they had a breakthrough, Grissom, along with Jim, Nick, Catherine, Greg and Warwick all headed out to the location.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Feeling another contraction take over, Sara was terrified, knowing she would have to give birth alone.
Hearing tires on gravel, she saw Sofia run out.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hearing the cars, Sofia knew her mother must have told them about the cabin.
Picking up the gun, she ran outside and saw a number of police officers and Grissom.
"Gil, honey …" about to continue, she saw Grissom run passed her and into the cabin.
Knowing now that Grissom would never love her, she picked up the gun and put it up to her head, pulling the trigger.
--
Rushing in, he heard a shot but was too busy focusing on Sara.
"Oh god, honey," Grissom started kissing Sara until he realized she was going having a contraction.
Calling for a paramedic, he was terrified after being told she was nearly 10 centimeters dilated and they would not be able to move her.
"Mr Grissom, if you can, supports Sara. Now, Sara, when I say, I need you to push with all your might," the paramedic said, before asking Catherine to go to the ambulance and get some blankets.
Feeling Grissom position himself behind her, she leaned against him as she felt the contraction coming.
"Push Sara," the paramedic said.
Feeling the pain again, Sara tried to push, but was too exhausted and simply squeezed Grissom's hands tighter as the pain took over.
"Sara, I know you are tired, but you are going to have to push", the paramedic said with slight concern.
Unsure of what to do, Grissom was terrified that he could still loose Sara and the baby.
"Honey please, you need to push," he said putting some of Sara's hair behind her ears.
Coming in with the blankets, Catherine could see what was happening and kneeled beside Sara.
"Sara, you can hate me as much as you want once you are holding your baby but right now you are going to push," she said squeezing her hand.
Seeing the next contraction coming she started shouting, "Sara, push",
-----------------------------------------------
"I am pushing," Sara yelled at Catherine and Grissom.
"How much longer?" Sara begged, leaning back into Grissom.
"Only a few more," the paramedic said to which Sara replied, "You said that 10 minutes ago."
Pushing again, she was suddenly told to stop.
"I can see the head, now, Sara, I want you to hold on for a second." He said.
Giving one final push, she heard her daughter's scream, as she was placed in the blanket on her stomach.
"Well, Sara, I have to say she takes after you," Catherine said, as Anne kept wailing, with an angry look on her face.
--
Sitting in the ambulance, Sara and Grissom gazed down at their baby, who, along with some fine dark hair like her mother, looked back up at her parents with her father's eyes.
Tracing her tiny fingers, Sara was finally happy.
Knowing that Sofia had killed herself was hard to take in, but she knew the woman would never harm her family again.
-----------------------------------------
Epilogue
Sara smiled at her friends as she walked down the isle.
Carrying her six-week-old baby Anne, her "something new", Sara was on cloud nine knowing that today she was going to unite her family forever.
Smiling as she saw Grissom, she happily handed Anne over to Catherine her maid of honor and recited her vows.
After being declared man and wife, Sara met Grissom's lips knowing this kiss would last forever.
