Only time could tell

Sara’s POV

“Lindsey, oh my god Lindsey, are you okay?”

Catherine was standing in the door opening holding Lindsey in her arms. Grissom was standing behind her I don’t think that I have ever seen him look happier then he was doing right now. Lindsey, Jenn and Cathe, th, they where all okay. And by time I would be okay too, when I at least loose that stupid cast around my leg. I was so tired of not being able to move and do what ever I want. At this moment I would love to walk up to Catherine and Lindsey and just hold them in my embrace. What the heck, I’m just going to try.

I stood up and walked towards Catherine and I did what I wanted to do all along, I didn’t care what the others might think. I just hugged her and Lindsey and it was as if time didn’t existed anymore. We just stood there totally wrapped up in our own world, without taking notice of our surroundings, just Cath, Lindsey and I.

Warri POV POV

I don’t know what has been going on, but something definably changed. Catherine has been so different this past week, and now I’m looking at her, Lindsey and Sara embracing each other. I don’t know what it is but I will find out.

Catherine’s POV

“Can we go home now, I want to go home?” I looked down at my daughter and could only think of one thing, home. I just wanted to go home.

“Yeah, sure honey, we’ll go home.” I looked at Grissom. “Can I take one of the CSI SUVs home?”

“Sure no problem, you can take it back tomorrow, Ecklie wants to talk to Lindsey and your sister.”

“No, Grissom, I don’t want Ecklie talking to Lindsey. Let someone else question her, common the man is a total asshole.”

“Catherine, he’s the one who got the case now it isn’t in our hands anymore.”

“If she hasn’t already has a trauma she will have one after she talked to him, ask someone else she’s not talking to him. Why can’t Sara do it again just like with Eddie’s case?”

“I’ll see what I can do, but only if Sara agrees?” Grissom said while he gently touched Lindsey’s cheek. “Hey sweetheart, are you okay?” Lindsey laughed and nodded her head, she was such a sweet innocent child, how could anyone hurt her.

“Sara will agree, I know that I can pursue her.” I said with a mysterious grin. Grissom’s eyes moved from me to Sara who was standing behind me, I turned my face and looked at Sara. Her face was the example of innocence she looked at Grissom as if she had no idea what I was talking about.

I turned around and walked up the mountain towards the cars, Sara and Jenn followed me.

We finally got home save, and I ordered some Chinese. We had dinner and Lindsey went to sleep afterwards. Jenn, Sara and I where sitting in the living room drinking some wine.

“Hey Jenn, you can sleep over if you want. Sara can sleep in my room.”

“Yep, sure no problem, I’ll sleep in your room.” Sara said with a huge smile on her face.

“Like you haven’t been doing that for a week?”

“We, no we didn’t!” I answered trying to keep a straight face, Jenn laughed. “Okay, okay we did.”

“Mmm, I thought so. I haven’t seen you this happy in a while.”

“Well I haven’t been in a while,” I grabbed Sara’s hand and squeezed it tightly. She watched into my eyes and she let out a relieved sigh. “What is it?”

“Nothing, I wasn’t so sure about this, about us. I thought that maybe you wanted to spend your free time with Lindsey instead of me. Which is completely understandable and all …”
