The first time Sara saw her she knew it. This girl is hot! It was some months ago in a bar for exotic dancers and after that day Sara visited it regularly. Just to see her, 'the' Catherine Willows. Sara knew it was dumb to fall for a dancer like her. Catherine could seduce every man or woman she wanted and Sara almost knew for sure she did. But still she came two times a month, some months even every Friday night, just to see her dance.
This night there weren't many women in the crowd. Some butchy lesbians and the women who came along with their boyfriends. Sara knew that type of girl. They wanted to show their guy that they were open minded, exciting, and they would make fake smiles to tell the boyfriend that she would remember the dance. So that she could dance for him tonight in the bedroom. But Sara wanted something else than seducing a man. She wanted the beautiful girl in front of her. She never took anyone with her. It was her secret, her secret night out. No one even knew she was gay and she wanted it to keep it that way. Drop dead gorgeous Catherine. Unreachable Catherine. It seemed that she never even had noticed Sara. This was unlikely because Sara was always sitting front row. But tonight that would change, she felt it. Sara knew tonight was different. Tonight she did something she never had the guts for. She ordered flowers. Roses, in all colours and sizes she could find at Sam's floral shop and had them delivered at Catherine's dressingroom. Tagged with an anonymous card, saying: "From your no 1 fan". She was to shy to write her name on it but now she made it clear that Catherine had an admirer and that made her feel better. When Catherine's act was over she went straight to home. Sara didn't want to be around when Catherine found the flowers. What if Catherine comes back? Asking the crowd who delivered them?
After a few weeks Catherine stopped with dancing. Sara never tried to find out where she went, knowing that Catherine wouldn't love her like she did.
It was a great surprise, when Sara got a new job as a CSI in Las Vegas, Catherine worked there as well. In seconds Sara felt she was falling in love again. That didn't change when she heard about Lindsey. And Eddie. She loved Catherine just as much as she did years ago.
After a year working with her, Sara knew that she had to tell Catherine how she felt. And suddenly she knew how. She ordered flowers. Roses, in all colours and sizes she could find at the local floral shop and had them delivered at Catherine's office. Tagged with a card, saying: "From your no 1 fan. Sara".
