Disclaimer: If we owned CSI, Sara and Grissom would definatley have history together, in fact they would be married and have geeky children.

A/N Nerwen Aldarion: Hey guys, I will update my other fics, but this one has been on my mind lately and I wanted to see how it goes.

A/N Tinuviel Undomiel: This chapter is all Nerwen's, next will be mine(or partially) I also palnned to start more CSI fics.


"You ask me, Grissom only gave Sara a higher evaluation because of their history." Dorsey- Elven Angry Jurors


"Did you hear about Ecklie and the new girl on dayshift?" Catherine asked as she slid into an empty seat at the table in the Break Room. Nick and Warrick sat across from her, both preoccupied with paperwork but more then willing to sacrifice their time for some juicy gossip.

"No," Nick answered and then turned to look at Warrick, who might have known, but Warrick shook his head.

"Well, the rumor is that the new girl has the hots for Ecklie and is trying to get her hands on him."

They all laughed, "Who would want Ecklie?" Warrick chuckled.

"Well according to Dorsey from dayshift..."

"Whoa," Nick interrupted, "You're getting this from Dorsey."

"Yeah."

"Don't believe what he says, last time I talked to him he said that Grissom gave Sara lead CSI because of their history together and we know that is not true."

The three of them were quiet for a moment, they all knew how much Sara had wanted that promotion, and she had received a low blow when Grissom recommended Nick. But she seemed to have taken it well. Seemed to.

"I guess you're right." Catherine said thoughtfully.

"Yeah, but that history together," Nick continued, "That I can believe."

"Yeah man, that have been dancing that dance for too long," Warrick added, "they need to just do us all a favor and get together."

"I know, one time I saw them together and..." Nick stopped his little story telling, he felt eyes boring into the back of his head and by the looks on Catherine and Warrick's faces, it was not good.

Nick turned to see Sara, leaning against the doorway, arms crossed over her chest. An angry glare marred her lovely face. She didn't say a word, she turned and irately left. Nick swallowed.

"I'm in trouble now aren't I?"

"We all are." Catherine answered.

"I'll go talk to her." Nick stood up.

"Are you sure that's a good idea man, you know how Sara gets."

"I'm the one that brought up the subject; I'm the one that she should be mad at."

"Good luck." Catherine called after him when he walked away.


Nick found Sara in the locker room, digging through her locker for something.

"Hey Sara, can I talk to you a minute?"

"Me? You want to talk to me? Are you sure? Because I thought that you just liked to talk behind my back."

Whoa she was angry.

"Or better yet," she continued, "let's talk about this dance that Grissom and I are doing, because after all we must have a history together."

"Sara I would have never said anything like that if I'd known you were there."

"Well then it's a good thing I was or I would have never found out what you three really think of me, some bimbo that tries to sleep her way to the top huh."

"Sara we have never thought of you that way."

"Really?" she said sarcastically, "then what is this history about?

"Sara, we don't think that you are sleeping with Grissom so that you can get a promotion."

"I'M NOT SLEEPING WITH GRISSOM!!" she yelled.

"Ok, we just think that you two have a lot in common and seem interested and wonder if anything happened between you two in the past."

"Look, if you wanted to know these things just ask, don't go starting rumors about things you know nothing about." "If you want to know, nothing has happened between Grissom and me. Ever."

"Do you wish something had?" Nick asked.

Sara remained silence which meant more then any answer could. Nick smiled, he knew that she liked Grissom.

But one question remained, did he like her?
