Chapter 60: Full Circle

April 13, 2007

A little over 8 months later

Grissom smiled as he looked over at the hospital bed where his wife was sound asleep, then he looked down in his arms and smiled bigger at the little girl they had created from their deep love for one another. He could already see so much of Sara in her and he couldn't wait to see her grow up and see what else she would have in common with her, but in the meantime he will cherish these moments with her because he's waited 50 years for this, and if he had anything to say about it he wasn't about to let it go by too quickly.

As he continued to look at their beautiful daughter, rain, thunder and lighting from outside caught his attention, so he eased his way off the chair he was sitting in next to the bed, walked to the window and stopped in front of it. After he moved his daughter so he was holding her against him with one arm, he took a quick peak outside through the blinds, then he moves his arm back to hold her with both arms so she would be more safe and protected.

When he looked down at his little girl again he said. "Now look at that Beth, I believe we've come full circle."

His moment with their newborn was interrupted when he heard a sleepy voice behind him. "Why do you say that?"

Grissom looks up from his daughter as he turns around to look at his wife, who was still laying down in bed but her head was turned in his direction, he smiled and answered. "Because when I was little and I asked my parents about when I was a baby, my dad said that I was born on a stormy night and it's stormy out there now."

She nodded in understanding with a smile, and as he watched her sit up slowly, she asked. "And how is our little Beth doing?"

Grissom walks over to the hospital bed and replied. "Well besides being a good girl, she is Looking like her beautiful mother every second." He watched Sara look down with a blush and shaking her head in disagreement. He chuckles at her reaction. "Well I think it's true."

When she looked at him again he transferred their daughter to her arms, then sits down next to them, puts his arm around her shoulders, brings her closer to him, kissed her head and asked. "How are you feeling?"

She looks up and over at him after soothing Beth so she didn't start crying, and gives him a smile. "A little tired and sore, but looking at this beautiful little girl was worth it all." He nods with a small smile, kisses her forehead before looking down at their little girl again, Sara looked back down a second later.

A few minutes later he took a deep breath and out of nowhere he started to have tears in his eyes, then sniffled.

Sara heard him, so she looked at him again and asked with worry. "What's wrong babe?"

He looks at her with a few tears going down his cheek, and answered her as his voice started cracking. "Did this really happen to me? Am I really here with you? looking at this precious little girl? Our little girl." He still couldn't believe after all this time, and even with both of these two beautiful women right in front of him, that he really got this lucky.

She nodded with her own tears in her eyes "Yes babe, all of this is true and real. Everything you ever wanted is right here and we aren't going anywhere." She felt that she should have been the one asking that question, but this was his moment so she let him have it.

He wipes his tears away, leans forward and kisses her forehead, before placing his forehead against hers. "I love you beyond anything I've ever known, and these last 7 years have been the best of my life. I can't wait to share more with you."

He kisses her forehead again, then looks down, and before Sara could talk he kisses his daughter's forehead and said.
"And you, I can't wait to see you grow up to be as beautiful as your mother and become whatever your heart's desire.
I'll try to be the best dad in the world, look after you and keep those boys away from you as long as possible." He heard Sara snort at that one, but he just continued to talk to his daughter. "I love you already, butterfly." He kissed her forehead again before sitting up straight.

When they looked at each other again, she had a smile on her face with tears going down her cheeks this time, he wipes them away as she speaks. "My opinion about you being a good dad is still there. I see the way you look at Beth, she has only been out in the world for a few hours now, but she is already your whole world."

He raises an eyebrow and asked with a smirk. "Jealous?"

She purses her lips as she looks down at her little girl. "If I have to share you with somebody else then I can't think of anyone better to have joint custody of your heart than this little one."

He smiled, get's comfortable on the bed before Sara puts her head on his shoulder, then he kissed her head again. "I still think you will be a great mother too."

She sighed and replied. "I hope so."

He brings her chin up so her eyes locked with his as he continued. "I have faith in you, just like you have faith in me. We are a team and in this together through thick or thin, just like we have been pretty much since we've met."

She smiled with a nod, he leans down, pecks her on the lips again, pulls back, then she puts her head back on his shoulder, and they go back to looking at their little one, already realizing that nothing could tear their eyes away from her for very long.

After another round of silence, Sara speaks again. "Did you call everybody?"

"I did, and they all said that they will come by sometime tomorrow, so we could have this time together, but the Lewis's probably can't get away until the kids get out of school in June."

She nodded in understanding, and after he kissed her head one more time, she whispered. "If we called our start something special, what would you call this?"

He smiled. "The most exciting, beautiful, yet changeling adventure ever." She smiled in agreement and he mentally sighed in content as he brought his family closer to his side, if that was even possible.

It may have taken him 50 years to get everything he ever wanted, but as far as he was concerned he was the luckiest and happiest man in the world, especially at this moment. He couldn't wait to see how the next 50 years treated him, but he had a feeling that with Sara and Beth right by his side, and if any other children come into their lives, he will enjoy ever last second of it.

AN: There you go. Please review.

AN#2: I can't believe it's been a little over two months since the first chapter had been posted, I never thought I would have written a story this long before. When I started this I was going back and forth on which moments to use, but I didn't want to just do the big ones and call it done, I wanted a few little ones to come through too, so I hope I didn't make it boring or dragged it out to much.

Thanks to everybody whose been with me from the beginning and even the ones who found this later. I really appreciated your support, whether it was just reading, or reviewing, favoring and following. It made me want to continue posting for you guys.

I've gotten a few interest on a sequel so I'll do, but I can't say when I'll start posting it, hopefully soon. In the meantime take care of yourselves and lookout for any other stories that I might post, and continue to enjoy the ones that are already out. Until next time.

Enjoy your week.
