CHAPTER 14 - Where'd You Go? - Fort Minor
The closer they got to the hospital the more nervous Cathrine became about Sara. The only sound being the ambulance sirens in front of them.
She hadn't said anything at all. Her eye's staring blankly out the window.
"Hey, how you holding up over there?" Cathrine finally said.
Sara turned her head to look at Cathrine. "I'm fine."
"Sara you are not fine!" She said giving Sara a look.
"What do you want me to say Cathrine? Do you want me to tell you how miserable I feel? Do you want me to tell you how scared I am of myself because I killed someone?" Sara said softly looking out the window. Tears flowing from her eyes.
Cathrine was at a loss for words. 'How stupid was I?' She thought keeping her eyes fixed on the ambulance in front of them.
"Sara I'm sorry."
Sara looked up. "Why are you sorry Cathrine? It's not your fault. I should be the one apologizing."
"Sara you don't-" Cathrine stopped herself. "Okay I think we both agree that neither of us need to apologize."
Sara smiled a little for the first time since they had gotten in the suv.
They pulled in to the ER right behind the ambulance. Sara lifted her head as they took Mark out on a gurney. Sara shuddered at as the events replayed in her mind. A paramedic then came out holding Logan close. He was fast asleep. Sara thought her looked pretty good considering the event's he'd just been thru.
"Come on, let's get you checked out." Cathrine said pulling Sara from her thoughts.
Sara opened her door and started to get out.
"Oh no you don't!" Cathrine said.
Sara turned around to look at her, but she wasn't there. When she stared to get out she saw Cathrine giving her a death glare right in front of her.
Sara reluctantly let Cathrine help her out of the suv. The truth was her ankle did hurt a lot and didn't want to make it any worse.
A nurse came out with a wheel chair.
"I do not need that. Give me some crutches and I'm good." Sara said.
"Miss, you look like you need it." The nurse said.
"I think she's okay." Cathrine said seeing Sara give the young nurse one of her famous death glares.
Sara smiled a little. "Thank you."
Once they where inside Sara went off to get checked out. Cathrine took a seat in the waiting room and called Grissom.
'Grissom.' He answered.
"Gil, its Cathrine. You need to get to the hospital, it's Sara and before you freak out, Sara is fine. She just had a run in with a burning house. But she seam's to be okay. Well somewhat okay....Gil?" Cathrine smiled, he had hung up.
She then dialed Warrick's number and told everything and then told him to get Nick, Greg and Brass down here.
A few minutes later the ER doors burst open revealing a frazzled look Gil Grissom.
"Where is she? Is she okay? What happened?" He said rushing over to Cathrine.
"She's being checked out by the doctor. She is somewhat okay, and it's a long story." Cath said. "And if you would have stayed on the phone longer I could have told you."
Just then the ER doors opened again now 4 frazzled looking men came rushing over to her.
Cathrine explained everything to them. Well at least all the she knew. She also told them that Sara had shot and killed Ricky Neven.
"Sara's not taking that well." Cath said, specifically looking at Grissom.
Just then a doctor came out.
"Family of Sara Sidle?" He said.
The 6 of them jumped up and rushed over to him. "How is she?" Grissom asked.
"Miss. Sidle is doing good. She has a sprained ankle but other then that she's okay. Her voice will return to normal in a few days. I would just recommend lots of water and rest. And since she was asking so persistently, I'm going to release her today."
"When can we see her?" Nick asked.
"She's also been asking for you so you can go in now if you'd like." With that the doctor turned and led them to Sara's room.
She was sitting on the edge of the bed, her ankle rapped up. Grissom smiled a little at the sight of her. She was covered in soot, her hair was a mess, but upon seeing them, her face light up with a bright smile.
"Hey!" Greg said rushing over and giving her a hug. Closely followed by Nick, Warrick and Brass.
"Glad to see you're looking better." Cathrine said.
And last but certainly not least was Grissom. He walked up to her. Neither of them said anything. Their eyes locked.
Sara smiled and then whispered.
"Kiss me you idiot."
Grissom had no complaints. Even being called an idiot didn't matter. He was her idiot and no one else's.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Sara had been released she wanted to go check on Logan. Grissom told her he would meet her in the lobby. The rest of the team had left, to start their shift.
Sara found his room. Charlie was sitting in a chair beside his bed. Logan was still asleep.
Charlie noticed Sara outside the door. He got up and went over to her.
"How can I ever thank you Sara." He said smiling.
"Just don't make me do it again okay?" She said smiling.
"That I can do. I'm never leaving his side again. How are you?" He asked seeing her on crutches.
"Oh it's fine. I'm just glad he's okay." Sara said. "Charlie?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't...Don't abandon you son. Listen to him. You may think you know what's best for him but sometimes kid's have a point. Foster home's can be tough on kids, don't push him to much. I don't mean this in a bad way or anything, just some advice."
"I'll take all the advice I can get. Thank you Sara. Any time you want to come visit, just give me a call." Charlie said.
"I might just have to take you up on that sometime. Let me know how he's doing okay. I gotta get going now but I'll see you around."
"Okay." Charlie said and turned back to Logan.
A few minutes after Sara had left Logan began to wake up.
"Hey." Charlie said a big smile on his face.
"Dad?" Logan said.
"It's me." Charlie said tears forming in his eyes.
"Where'd you go?"
"What do you mean?"
"You left me. Where'd you go?"
Charlie didn't know what to say. Tears falling from his eyes.
"Where'd you go dad?"
