Chapter 30

After shift the next day Sara, Catherine, Sophia and Beth were talking about babies. "I don't know how to tell Greg," Beth said, "We never talked about children. I am not sure if he even wants them."

"Just tell him," Sara said, "he will be thrilled. Trust me, I know my little brother."

Beth was amazed at how the team felt as if they were family. "How far along are you?" Sophia asked. "Just 4 weeks," Beth said.

"Well, if you have any questions you can ask any of us," Sara said laughing. "Oh yes," Catherine said. "You have sooo much to look forward to. Swollen ankles, morning sickness, frequent trips to the bathroom, not being able to move not to mention your last few months stuck in the lab."

"It's not all bad," Sara said, "Don't forget about the HORMONES."

"Hormones?" Beth said. "Our best friend," Sophia said. Sara told her about the hormones.

"Now that is something I am looking forward to," Beth said.

"Not to mention the fact that, for some reason, they are a lot more turned on too," Catherine added. "For sure," Sophia said, "All I have to do is walk past Nick."

"I think the sex has been better," Sara said, "Almost makes me sad to see the pregnancy come to an end." Everyone giggled. "You can always do it again," Beth said.

"Can do what again?" Gil asked walking into the break room. The ladies all just looked at each other and giggled. Gil shook his head, helped Sara up and said their good byes.

"What was that all about?" Gil asked. "Girl talk," Sara said. Gil knew better then to ask anything more. As they were about to get in the car Catherine called her. "There was something I wanted to ask you before we got 'side tracked''.

"What's that?" Sara asked. "What do you know about a boy named Billy Peters?" Catherine asked.

"Now that is a blast from the past," Sara said. "You remember out first case?"

"When you about got your head shot off?" Catherine said.

"Yes. Billy is the boy who….. " Sara started to say.

Oh my god," Catherine said, "Lindsay is dating a thug."

"Lindsay is dating Billy? How sweet," Sara said.

"What is so 'sweet' about that?" Catherine demanded to know.

"He is also the same boy who saved Gil's life," Sara said. She told Catherine how Billy had turned his life around. "He went to night school, got his GED and is putting himself through law school," Sara said.

This made Catherine feel much better. "One of the few success stories," Gil said.

At the house Gil had showered while Sara fixed them something to eat. Gil sat but was not eating, he was playing with his food.

"I know I am a bad cook, Sara said, "But you are grown, if you don't want it you don't have to eat it."

Gil looked at her, "I'm sorry. It's not that it is just this case I am working."

Sara walked over behind him and rubbed his shoulders, "Another one?"

Gil just nodded, over the course of the last 4 months there had been a total of twelve homeless men found dead. Each one was severally beaten before they were hung. Even though there was a ton of evidence none of it seemed to lead anywhere.

"You'll crack it," Sara said as she massaged his shoulders. Gil kissed her hand, "I am glad you have faith in me."

Sara kissed the top of his head, "Come on lets go to bed."

"I'm not sure I can sleep," Gil said. Sara smiled, "I think I know how to take care of that." She took his hand and lead him to their bedroom.

Sara slowly unbuttoned his shirt, pushing it to one side she licked his chest, took a nipple into her mouth and lightly sucked.

Her hands wandered to his waist, she undone his pants and let them fall to the floor. Gil's manhood was already at near full length and begging to be released. She took it in her hand and stroked it, he grunted . She fondled is balls as she licked the head of his cock. She let her tongue run up and down the length of it and nipped the head.

She took his length into her mouth and sucked Gil was in ecstasy. He felt himself needing to release his juices. Sara heard him cry out her name as she felt the violent explosion in her mouth and swallowed quickly. Sara continued to lick and kiss Gil's manhood while his body shook uncontrollably. Sara could feel him relax, she knew he would sleep.

Gil pulled her to him and kissed her. He could taste himself on her lips, "Now that is what I call a sedative." Sara giggled.

Gil gave her that look, the one that asked her what he could do for her.

"I'm fine," she whispered, "You sleep."

Sara snuggled next to Gil, they both slept soundly.

Sara woke up to that pain in her back again. She sat up and did her relaxation breathing. After a bit it went away.

"How long has this been going on?" Gil asked her.

Sara looked at the clock, "About 6 hours now."

"Don't you think you should go see Dr. Webb?" Gil asked. "I was thinking the same thing," Sara said. "I will call and see if he can see me latter today." Gil dressed and went to the kitchen, "You want oatmeal or pancakes?"

"Neither, I want to go to the hospital," Sara told him.

At the hospital, Sara went straight to the OB Unite.

"May I help you?" Mary asked. "Yes," Sara said. "I am two weeks from my due date but for the last 6 hours I have had sever pain in my back. Just a bit ago I used the restroom, I noticed some blood on the tissue."

"Well, let's just check things out," Mary said. "You may wait over there," she said to Gil.

A bit latter Mary came out, "Mrs. Grissom is in labor. I have notified Dr. Webb, he should be here shortly. I need about 5 more minutes with Mrs. Grissom then you can see her. If there is anything I can do for you or if there is any questions you have, please don't hesitate to find me." She walked back into Sara's room.

5 minutes latter Gil was standing by Sara's bed. Dr. Webb came in her room, "Looks like your little ones have decided to prove me wrong. But then, I am most of the time. A due date is only a close guess."

Sara took Gil's hand, together they worked through a contraction.

"You still want to do this without drugs?" the doctor asked. "Yes," Sara told him.

Gil called Nick and told him to take shift. The team dropped in to see Sara but did not stay to long. Mary kept checking in on them. Labor was progressing on schedule, Gil had to admit to himself that he did not think she could do it, but she was.

The crew was assembled in the waiting room, Nick was pacing the floor.

"Good heavens," Catherine said, "If you are this nervous now I can only image how you will be when Sophia goes into labor."

"When she is in labor I will be in there and know what is going on," Nick told Catherine.

4 hours after she was admitted Sara gave birth to the twins, Ryan James came first. He was 5 pounds 10 ounces and 18 inches long. Rachel Jade was 5 minutes behind him. She was 5 pounds on the dot and also 18 inches long.

Gil could not help but smile, "It is so amazing." He walked over to where Rachel was laying, Mary handed her to him. "She is perfect," Gil said. Ryan cried, Gil looked at him, "You are too."

Catherine delivered Jacob Adam two days past her due date.

Sophia and Nick's little lady - Halley Marie - was right on schedule.

Beth and Greg had a son, they named him Samuel Robert.

Gil and Sara were laying on a hammock in the back yard watching the stars and listening to the sounds of nature. "I never dreamed my life would turn out like this," Sara said, as she kissed Gil. Gil smiled, "Now that is funny. Ever since I first laid eyes on you I knew that this is just how things would turn out."
