"Just because you are the supervisor doesn't mean that you have the right to tell me to get a life! OR that I DESERVE a life. I can make desicions by myself, without your input! If I AM seeing someone, than it is MY business, not YOURS!"
The whole lab could hear the yelling which imminated throughout the lab from Grissom's office. Someone had somehow found out that she was seeing someone, which then caused Grissom to escourt Sara into his office and discuss the topic. It had not turned out pretty.
Everyone had stopped working and listened as the irritated woman fumed at the bossman. When the door flung open, everyone continued their work frantically. Sara held her head low, mumbling something to herself, before slamming the door behind her and storming to the breakroom.
It was hard to keep her face umemotional as she sat on the couch with an old forensics magazine. This was proving harder than she expected.
Grissom sat in his office. Damn, that woman took everything he said very seriously. He knew Sara, but he never knew she could do THAT.
If he was expected to keep this up, it would be hard.
Since there were only two cases, one a B&E, and one a straightforward suicide, Greg, Sara, and Grissom were left behind.
As shift came to a close, the three entered, laughing. It was when they looked up they saw Sara, staring intensly at a magazine, but obviously not reading.
Greg sat at the table, tv on, but faced the guys with a strained face when they entered. Sara was still oblivious to everyone else.
Catherine looked at her then back to him with wide eyes, as if to say, 'What the hell is going on?'
Greg nodded out the room. The three headed out followed by Greg, who didn't say a word until they were in the safety of the locker room.
In a low whisper, he revealed, "Grissom found out that Sara was seeing someone-"
"Sara's seeing someone?" Nick was totally oblivious. He gained three unbeleivable faces. Shifting awkwardly, Greg began speaking again.
"Grissom and Sara were in his office, and she started yelling to him about it being non of his business. I'm suprised you guys didn't hear it."
Warrick looked sympathetic, "Wow, and they were doing so good lately. I don't want to go back to the knife and dagger glares."
"Me neither," supplied Catherine.
The three sat there. It was out of their hands, or was it?
Heading home, Sara flipped open her phone, speed dailing one.
"Hey, baby," she smiled.
"Hey, when are you going to be home?"
"I'm headed there now. You know, you are never going to beleive what happened at work today."
The man chuckled, "Really, what happened?"
"You remember my asshole boss?"
"The one who shoves you away, and treats you like shit sometimes at work?"
"Yeah, that would be the one. He found out about us, and became extremely angry."
"He has no right to be angry, you're allowed to have someone, even if you have to settle for me."
Sara laughed, "Don't say that! You're the most perfect person ever!"
"Yeah, sure."
"I mean it! Hey, I'm pulling in now, we'll continue once I get inside?"
"I'm out back. See you soon."
Sara hung up her phone and jumped out of the car. It was good to be home. Entering the house, she disposed of her shoes and socks, grabbing a beer before heading out to the deck.
"Hey," he smiled.
"Hey," Sara lay next to him on the lounge chair.
"As you were saying?"
"Well, my boss dragged me into his office and I started screaming at him that it was, like you said, none of his business. I mean I think I could be heard from across town!"
"And what did he do?"
"He sat in his chair and smiled at me! Like it was some kind of joke!"
"Maybe he didn't think you had the guts or the acting skill to portray your anger, and was so suprised, he had trouble keeping his hands off of you?"
"His eyes did look kind of glassy, but I don't think he would have any type of relationship at work."
His eyebrow raised, "But didn't you two last week?"
"THAT was just a kiss. And I didn't even start it!"
Grissom smiled and wrapped his arms around her, kissing her lightly.
"I think he thinks you have been behaving very well at the lab. Better than he expected. And that your acting skills are amazing."
"Really, do I get a reward?" Sara smiled sweetly.
"What kind of reward?"
"I would love to just sit here and watch the sun trail across the sky."
"'So, she leaning on her husband's arm, they turned homeward by a rosy path which the gracious sun struck out for them in its setting. And O there are days in this life, worth life and worth death. And O what a bright old song it is, that O 'tis love, 'tis love, 'tis love that makes the world go round!'"
Sara smiled and laughed a little, "Dickens."
"How right you are," Grissom smiled, kissing her forehead and getly drifting off to sleep.
