Summary: Sara comes back to Vegas after two years with some explanations for the team and Grissom. GSR obviously and Implied CWR.
Oh and I don't have someone to beta for me so if its bad I'm sorry!
Catherine Willows-Brown sat a her table eating toast and looking at brochures for schools that Lindsay had been accepted to. Lindsay was about four months from graduating and needed to choose one.
Her cell phone chirped at her. Since she had been re-en stated as Swing Shift Supervisor about a year ago she'd been getting called a lot more. But the caller ID showed some one who hadn't called her in about two years.
"Willows-Brown" She answered.
"Brown? You and War finally got hitched?"
"Oh my gosh Sara. I didn't believe my Caller ID!"
"Its me." Sara said with a smile to herself.
"So why the call all of the sudden?"
"I'm in Las Vegas."
Catherine nearly dropped the phone at this but she listen as Sara asked her to met up for coffee at a little shop near the lab. Catherine said yes without second guessing and left, forgetting to tell Warrick where she'd be.
When Catherine pulled into the parking lot to find Sara on the hood of a decent car holding the hand of a little girl with curly blond hair.
Sara approached as Catherine got out of the car. She let go of the girls hand but before she was able to get away Sara picked up the girl. Now the girl looked defeated as she couldn't get away. The girl was holding a plastic molded beetle that was about five times the real size.
"Catherine this is Ella Ella this is Catherine."
"Nice to met you miss." The girl said in a very two year old-ish voice. Catherine noticed that she has Sara's gap toothed smile but had deep bye eyes like someone else she knew.
"Nice to meet you too Ella." Catherine said with a smile."Is Ella short for something?" She added as she gave Sara a hug.
"Eleanor." Sara said simply even though is cleared up a few things.
"So she's Grissom's then?" Catherine said as they walked toward the door.
"Yeah I didn't know until about two months after I left Las Vegas." Sara said as they were shown to a table. Sara had gotten Ella a booster seat and was trying to make her keep still now.
"So is the beetle your choice or hers?" Cath said with a smile.
"Actually it was hers. I took her to the toy store for being so good on the plane. She really likes animals but this is the first time Sheуs picked a bug." Sara said.
After a good long talk about where Sara had been, Cath and Warrick's Wedding and all of the other lab gossip Ella had fallen asleep in Sara's arms and they were ready to leave. It was still considerably early in the morning but it was perfect for Sara.
"Lindsay is going to love her." Catherine said as she took a car seat from Sara's car and put it in hers.
"Well lets hope." Sara said as she buckled up Ella in the seat."I shouldn't be all day but I don't really know."
"Well Warrick and I both have the day off but I'm sure one Gil hears about her he'll want to she her right away." Catherine said.
"Thanks Cath!" Sara said as she got in her car.
