Chapter 22
?I want details,? Catherine said.
?Gil was so cute,? she said.
?He was trying to make everything perfect that first night. He had candles and soft music. He stared the fireplace and even wore some silk pajama bottoms.? Catherine smiled.
?What was so sweet was he was nervous, a lot like the first time we made love,? Sara said.
Catherine giggled. ?What?? Sara said.
?I am just trying to picture ?tough as nails Grissom nervous,? she said.
?The rest of the month was fantastic. The snow was perfect,? Sara went on, ?And there was this doe.?
Sara told her all about the momma and her baby and everything that had happened their last night.
?It came right up to you?? Catherine said amazed.
?Yes,? Sara said. Then she told her about the fireside picnic.
?How romantic,? Catherine said. ?I wish Warrick would do something like that.?
?Speaking of ?Warrick?,? Sara said. ?How you decided where you want to go on your honeymoon??
?We have not even talked about it,? Catherine said. ?He says any old place it fine with him.?
?The wedding is in three weeks,? Sara said. ?Tell me about it,? Catherine said.
?At least I did get him to agree on BUTTERFLY FIELD. He loved your and Grissom?s.?
?Maybe you should just make all the arraignments,? Sara said. ?You know, just go where you want to go.?
?That sounds great but it would be nice if he participated,? Catherine said.
?Well, Gil made all the honeymoon arraignments,? she said, ?you tell him he can make the wedding arraignments and you will take care of the honeymoon.? Catherine was thinking about that when Gil came in the break room with assignments.
?Nick has the flu,? Gil said. ?But it is a light night, we should be ok.?
Warrick and Sara went to a body dump in the landfill. When they got there Warrick said, ?I think I will call Griss, there are bugs all over the place.?
Sara felt lightheaded. ?What is wrong?? Warrick asked. ?I feel sick,? Sara said walking far enough away as to not containment the crime scene.
She got sick, not once but twice. She grabbed a bottle of water, rinsed her mouth and went back to where Warrick was.
?Might be the decomp,? Warrick said. ?Decomp never bothered me before,? she said.
?Maybe you have Nicks flu?? he said. Sara covered her mouth and ran this time.
?Grissom,? Warrick said on the phone. ?Something is going on with Sara. She is puking all over the place.?
Sara walked back to Warrick again. ?Griss said for you to wait in the car, he is on his way,? Warrick said.
Thankfully Sara went to the car. A few minutes later Gil pulled up, he went to Sara first.
?What?s wrong?? he asked. ?Flu I think,? she said.
?Shift is almost over, take your self to the doctor. I will help Warrick,? he said. ?But,? she said trying to protest. ?GO!? he said.
?If you have the flu you will make everyone else sick.?
Sara threw her hands up in the air and left. She called her doctor and was able to get in, how she hated doctors and doctors offices.
She sat on the exam table, swinging her feet. ?What?s going on Sara?? Dr. North asked.
Bob North had been her doctor since she moved to Vegas. He was an older man, kind of what she hoped her father might have been - had he lived.
She told him about getting sick. ?Decomp would make me loose my cookies,? he said smiling.
?Bob, I have been a CSI for a time now. Decomp had never bothered me. I think I may have caught a could up there in that cabin,? she said.
?Could you have 'caught' something else?? Bob asked. ?I know you and Gil have been trying to have a baby.?
That had never crossed her mind. ?Let?s eliminate that first,? Bob said. He handed her a cup, ?Pee,? he said.
A few minutes later Bob came back in the room. ?So what is next?? Sara asked.
?Lay down,? he said. He did a vaginal exam. ?Sara,? he said. ?You don?t have the flu. I am no gynecologist, but I would say you are about three weeks along.? Sara looked at him.
?Call Marsha?s office for an appointment,? he said. He told Sara to dress and meet him in his office.
Once there he handed her an appointment. ?I called Marsha,? he said. ?She agrees with my findings.?
He handed her some prenatal vitamins he kept on hand just for this sort of thing. Gil had called her and told her he was at the house, she went home.
He seen the bottle of vitamins and thought they were antibiotics. ?So are you contagious or can you work?? he asked.
?I am not contagious,? she said. He looked at her, ?The pills. I thought?? he said.
?I don?t have the flu either,? she said smiling at him.
He was completely confused and his face showed it.
She went to him and put her arms around his waist.
?Do you remember what I told you when you asked how I seen us in ten years??
?Yes,? he said.
She just smiled at him, then it hit him. ?You are ?. We are,? he said fighting for the words.
?Half way there,? she said kissing him.
