Secret Santa Chapter 1: Drawing of Names, a csi fanfic

Do not own CSI!

This story takes place before Grissom and Sara ever got together so around season 4 and 5. Since the holidays are coming up I decided to write this little story.

Christmas is just around the corner and the nightshift team has decided to do Secret Santa! Who will everyone get?

Secret Santa- Drawing of Names

Sara stood in the lab going over evidence. She was bent over the table, when Grissom walked in. "Sara," he whispered.

She looked up at him, he was wearing a baby blue polo t-shirt which matched his eyes. It was neatly tucked into a pair of black slacks. Sara heart fluttered a little of the sight of him.

She let her eyes lingered over him for a second before turning back to her work.

"Sara," he breathed again.

She sighed and stood up. She turned towards him. "What?" she asked.

"I want you!" At that Grissom dropped the folders he was holding and walked over towards her. He pulled Sara towards him and kissed her. Sara was caught off guard but was soon kissing him back.

His hands ran through her dark brown hair, which needed a good wash. Sara ran her hands down Grissom's chest, feeling the hardest of his pecks.

Sara felt Grissom hand leave her hair and run down her spine. He lifted her on to the table, not caring about the evidence lying there. They continued to kiss passionately when….

"SARA? SARA!"

At the sound of her name Sara's eye fluttered open. She raised her head and looked around, she wasn't in the lab. She was in the break room. And the man standing over her was not Grissom, it was Warrick. Sara could feel her cheeks go red with embarrassment as she sat up in her chair. She had fallen asleep again at work. The first time had been in the locker room, after working a double shift.

Warrick smiled at the woman embarrassment, it was not too often that he saw Sara Sidle embarrassed.

As Warrick took a seat across from Sara Soon Nick and Greg walked in.

"Hey," greeted Nick as he through himself down in a chair. Sara smiled over at Nick. Greg waved and walked over to the coffee machine at the back of the room.

It wasn't until 5 minutes later, Grissom and Catherine joined them. Sara looked up at Grissom, there eyes met. Sara lowered her eyes, hoping he did not notice her staring. She could feel the redness creep into her cheek once again.

Grissom took no notice of this and sat down with the rest of his team.

He cleared his throat loudly to get their attentions, who were still chatting away.

The room grew silent and everyone looked over at Grissom.

"Thanks, now as you all know Christmas is just around the corner. 3 weeks to be exact. And you all know that we have our Christmas party on the 23." Spoke Grissom.

"Yes, yes we know this Griss, the party is always on the 23 and we get a week off work too. What's so new about that?" asked Greg. Everyone began to nod their head in agreement.

"Well, Ecklie and the whole department have decided to do secret Santa this year. Everyone must take part in it or Ecklie will be on my case," he looked over at Sara as he spoke this. Who had rolled her eyes at the words secret Santa. Sara was not too thrilled with the holidays. She thought it was pointless to spend a whole lot on money on people you see once a year.

Sara noticed Grissom glare and smiled. Grissom adverted his attention back to the rest of the team not taking notice of this.

Sara gave out a sigh of frustration and disappointment. She leaned back in her chair as Grissom went on to explaining what Secret Santa was which everyone already knew anyways.

"Now I want everyone now to write your names on a small piece of paper and we are going to drawn who you get," Grissom said as he handed out pieces of paper to everyone.

After everyone had scribbled their name down Grissom spoke, "Now everyone fold your paper into fours so then no one can see the name."

Everyone folded their papers and handed them to Grissom. Who then placed them in a hat that he had brought with him. Everyone watched as he shuffled the papers around in the hat making sure that the names where mixed up well.

Catherine went first, then Nick who was followed by an excited Greg. Who took about 5 minutes rubbishing through the hat before drawing out a name.

Next was Warrick, then Sara and lastly Grissom.

Grissom open this piece of paper and quickly looked down at the name. A small smile crept over his face, Sara noticed as she watched the man steadily. But was gone in a flash.

"Now everyone the week of the party that is when you will get your gifts. You will then find out at the party who is your secret Santa," explained Grissom as he and the rest of the team stood up and got back to work.

Sara waited until everyone was out of the room before she opened the folded piece of paper in her hands. She breathed slowly as she undid the folds one by one. She closed and made a wish to her self, "Please let it be Grissom!" At that she opened her eyes and stare down at the name scribbled in the centre.

She let out a sign of disappointment before folding up the paper up and placing into her back pocket of her jeans.

In the locker room were Warrick, Nick and Greg all getting ready to go home.

"So who did you get?" asked Greg eagerly as he tied up his sneaker.

Warrick and Nick exchanged looks and just laughed.

"Dude, I'm not going to tell you who I got. That totally would ruin the surprise!" spoke Warrick down to Greg.

Greg took this as a sign, "Who you got me?" asked Greg excitedly.

"Sure," laughed Warrick at the young man's face. Which was looking like he just discovered gold or something?

Greg finished tying his shoes and stood up. "Well, I'm sure I will love anything you get me," spoke Greg as he left the break room.

Warrick shut his locker door and sighed, "Now I have to found out who as Greg and traded. "Who do you have man?" asked Nick

"Not telling," spoke Warrick with a grin on his face. He then walked out of the locker room.

Nick shut his locker door and ran out to catch up with Warrick.

Who did everyone get?
