Fighting for my child

Chapter seven

Sara sobbed and sobbed into Gil's shirt while he held her close and whispered sweet nothings into her ear.

"Sara baby come on sweetie clam down" said Gil but Sara just sobbed and sobbed so Gil began to sing softly into her ear

There's a calm surrender to the rush of day
When the heat of a rolling wind can be turned away
An enchanted moment, and it sees me through
It's enough for this restless warrior just to be with you

And can you feel the love tonight
It is where we are
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight
How it's laid to rest
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best

There's a time for everyone if they only learn
That the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn
There's a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors
When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours

And can you feel the love tonight
It is where we are
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight
How it's laid to rest
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best

By the time Gil had finished singing Sara had fallen asleep so he gently slipped Sara's head off of his chest and eased himself off the sofa he was just putting a blanket over Sara when his cell started ringing so he slipped into the kitchen so he wouldn't disturb Sara.

"Grissom"

"Gil its Catherine it's not Daisy this poor little baby's been dead for three days" said Catherine and Gil breathed a sigh of relief.

"Cath that's great news Sara's just cried herself to sleep so I'll tell when she wakes up" said Gil

"Ok oh and by the way Greg's on his way round with Sara's Tahoe and pram" said Catherine

"Ok thanks" said Gil closing his phone just as there was aloud banging on the door. Gil went to open it and found Greg on the door step.

"Hey boss" said Greg loudly

"Greggo put a sock init will you it's just taken me a hour to get Sara to sleep so I don't want her disturbed" said Gil.

"I just came by to drop Sara's Tahoe off here's the keys" said Greg put Sara's car keys on the side board.

Meanwhile back at the lab Nick and Warrick where running some fibre samples through the computer when there pagers began to beep.

"Patrol have found Hank's car at the harbour" said Nick and he and Warrick headed for Nick's Tahoe. When they arrived at the harbour they could here voice's they drew there guns and headed slowly towards the boat. Just as they where climbing aboard they heard a baby crying.

"That's Daisy it has to be" said Warrick just as Hank appeared holding Daisy.

"Hank hand the baby over and get on the floor" said Nick just as the back up arrived

"She's my daughter" said Hank

"I know but this isn't the best way to go about it if you want visitation rights" said Warrick

"Visitation rights I want custody" said Hank

"Hank hand the baby over now" said Nick just then Elaine appeared

"Hank just hand the baby over" said Elaine "We will get her back" Hank stepped forward and put Daisy into Nick's arms then the uniform officer cuffed Hank and took him away.

Nick and Warrick took Daisy over to the Tahoe where Catherine had arrived and was waiting for them.

"Well done guys" said Catherine as Nick handed her Daisy "Come on little one lets get you home to mommy" Catherine and Nick climbed into Catherine's Tahoe Nick held onto Daisy while Catherine began to drive toward Gil's house. When they arrive Sara was still sleeping so Gil went to wake her.

"Sara sweetie you have somebody waiting to see you" said Gil

"Mmm" said Sara she sat up and rubbed her eyes then she got out of bed and followed Gil into the sitting room and her eyes widened "My Baby" Sara dashed over to where Catherine was sitting and took Daisy from Catherine and held her close.

"Will leave you to it" said Catherine "Come on Nicky". Once Nick and Catherine had left Gil returned to the sitting room to find that Sara had fallen asleep again with Daisy on her chest with Sara's arms wrapped tightly around her.
