Disclaimer I do not own CBS, CSI or any of the franchise, or any of the characters, I just like to write about them, so please don't sue me.
A/N Thank you to GrissomzGal for giving me this idea when she left me a review for one of my other stories. Grissom has his beard back for this story, and the rating will probably go up to M for the last chapter. Also I would like to dedicate this story to all the GSR readers out there who are currently depressed about the GSR plot-line to date. Merry Christmas to everyone. Please R&R and Enjoy
Santa Grissom's Lap – Chapter 1
It was the Christmas party at the lab for all three shifts, their partners, spouses and children. Four days before the big day and Gil Grissom, the quiet enigmatic entomologist was to play Santa Clause for the evening, under the threat from his boss Conrad Ecklie and his girlfriend Sara Sidle. He had to pass out gifts to children that people had brought in the week before, and ask them if they had been good all year, and find out what they wanted for Christmas.
The break room had been set up and decorated by Sara to look like a Santa's grotto. Grissom's office chair sat in the middle of the room next to a large bag of gifts, either side but not too close were two other comfy chairs for Santa's little helpers.
The party was all set up with food and alcohol and soft drinks in one lab, the grotto in the break room and a small room was set up for the children to play in, and so awaited the arrival of the party guests.
Hohohohohoho
It was 7pm and a lot of the guests had already arrived as Gil was in his office with Sara, trying but reluctantly to get into his Santa outfit.
"Do I have to do this Sara, this is going to be so humiliating" Gil whined huffing and puffing as he pulled on the black velvet trousers.
Sara smiled widely "Oh don't be a baby Gil, it's for the benefit of the children, where's your Christmas spirit humbug" she said trying not to laugh, as she turned away from him.
"Come on Sara why me" he whined again like a kid "I hate dress up" he groaned.
"Look Gil, it will be the others turn next year, so you can laugh at them next time, but it is your turn this year, so suck it up bugman" she chuckled "Besides you know what you are gonna get if you do this for me"she said seductively "oh and keep the Santa suit we are gonna need it for ourselves later" she wiggled her eyebrows.
"Well I don't like it, and I am going to get too warm in this outfit, I hope you know that" he pouted as he looked at her.
"Oh you are definitely going to look hot lover" she wiggled her eyebrows at him "And stop pouting it makes you look cute, as well as hot, and you better not be doing that to any of the women tonight mister" she said as she leaned in to kiss the pout right off his mouth.
A look of horror appeared quickly on his face as a realization hit him "I am not having any woman sitting in my lap tonight Sara, or for that fact any men" his look turned to that of fear.
"Don't worry honey, I never told you, but you are getting two little helpers to give you a hand tonight, so you can have a good laugh at them" she said to him with a sweet mischievous smile, but not telling him who they were.
"Come here honey, I want a kiss and a cuddle if I have to have masses of kids crawling all over me" he said as he reached for her and embraced her placing his lips on hers.
Sara tilted her head and deepened the kiss "Mmmmmmmmmm" she moaned softly as she broke the kiss to get her breath back "I will make it up to you later I promise Gilbert" she said seductively.
"You better" he said wiggling his eyebrows at her "Lets get this show on the road the sooner I get out there, the sooner you can keep your promise" he said grinning like a teenager in love, and patting her ass gently.
Sara shook her head as she led the way to the break room.
hohohohohoho
She opened the door to the grotto and the two little helpers waiting on Santa.
Jim Brass stood there with a glare on his face, Plain red pointed hat with bell, a green baggy shirt with a red bow tie, and red and white spotted waist coat, but as Sara and Gil looked down to the Captains legs and the green, red and white striped tight leggings, and pointed red shoes. The pair doubled over in hysterics crying.
"Okay so I look funny, ha ha, get it out of your system, because I will get you for this Sara, and as for you Gil, wait until you wear this next year" Jim said annoyed at the pair.
Gil stopped laughing instantly and his eyes went wide, at his last sentence "Well you wont need any make up Jim, the natural blush will do it for you" Sara said chuckling still trying to control her laughter "I gotta get pictures" she couldn't help herself at the threat.
"No" came three startled male voices loudly, one a bit louder than the other two.
Now Gil and Sara's attention turned toward the other little helper in the room that they hadn't noticed at first, as snicker's started, then full blown laughter had them doubled over again.
Ecklie sighed loudly "I don't know how you got me into this Sidle, but let me tell you this, never again will I ever do this, and I demand that no pictures are taken of me dressed so ridiculous, and only adults allowed in accompanying kids,okay" he said adamantly as Jim also giggled, at least he wasn't the only one that looked stupid.
Gil and Jim looked relieved at Ecklies demand and wore smug looks.
Sara looked at the three of them looking a little relieved, before she went to the door "Well I am not gonna be the one who tells the kids they can't have a photograph, taken by their parents, as a keepsake, are you?" came her quick reply.
All three smug faces turned to horror, at the realization that they wouldn't be able to tell the children that they couldn't have pictures.
"My god Gil, she really is enjoying putting us through torture, are you sure she hasn't been spending time at the dominion while your at work" Jim asked, receiving a swift jab of an elbow.
Gil glared at Jim's teasing "Sara just remember, we know how to commit murder and hide a body and get away with it" he warned her with a mock glare.
Ecklie turned and looked at the other two men stunned "I am going to regret this, I know I am, how the hell did I get myself into this" he groaned loudly.
"Have fun boys" Sara called as she shut the door behind her.
Hohohohohoho
Sara went off to find the rest of her team and to mingle with the party guests.
Finding Nick, Catherine,Warick and Greg she approached them with a huge smile "Have you been to the grotto yet" she asked then chuckled.
They all looked at her curiously then Catherine asked "What have you done Sara" narrowing her eyes.
Sara laughed loudly "Well seeing as no one bothered to respond to the e-mails and the memo's about organizing the labs Christmas party this year, I took it on myself to go ahead and organize it myself, and in the process seek out revenge on one, poetic justice on another and just for the hell of it on the other" she said cryptically.
"What e-mail" and "What memo's, I never got any" said Greg and Nick.
The four people in front of her looked a little worriedly at her as she laughed again evilly "The ones you probably deleted and trashed" she paused then smiled "Oh don't worry guys, your safe, but you are gonna love what I have done, and I think you are gonna want photographic or video evidence for the future"
"Come on Sara enough with the cryptic stuff, just tell us what you did" said Catherine exasperatedly at the other womans toying with them.
"Well you know how Griss is really grumpy at Christmas and doesn't like parties"
"Yeah" they all replied nodding.
"And how we all dislike Ecklie" she paused.
"Thats an understatement if ever I heard one" Catherine said.
"And how Brass is always teasing us all, well lets just say they may all be a little on the quiet and elusive side tonight" she chuckled.
"God damn it Sara, spit it out, what is going on girl" Warick said annoyed now.
"We have a lovely Santa's grotto set up in the break room correct" they all nodded listening to her intently "In that room we have Santa, aka Gil Grissom and his two faithful little helpers, one Jim Brass and Conrad Ecklie dressed as elves, thanks to yours truly" she said proudly smiling.
"No way, the boss man, Brass and Ecklie" Greg gasped in shock.
Nick choked on the mouthful of beer he had just taken, as his eyes bulged "No!"
"Yes" Sara nodded.
"Oh man, we owe you big time for this girl" Warick chuckled and gave Sara a light hug, then gave high fives to Nick and Greg.
"Gil, Jim and Ecklie dressed up in festive outfits" Catherine said, as Sara nodded at her stunned coworkers, as a huge evil smiles broke out on all their faces.
"We gotta see this" they all said as they started to walk off.
"Hold it guys, you have a problem" Sara said to the foursome "You can't get into the room without taking a kid in to see Santa, Ecklie was adamant about that" she looked at the crestfallen group.
Catherine smiled widely and put her index finger in the air, then got out her phone and flipped it open, and pressed a speed dial number as the others watched her.
"Lynsey, I want you to do me a huge favor, and if you do, I will let you go to that concert next week with Stacy and her mom" Catherine smiled.
"Yes Lynsey, I will even pay for the ticket, god you drive a hard bargain" she paused to listen "Okay I want you and three of your friends to jump into a cab which I will pay for when you arrive at the lab, oh and bring your camera's" she listened again "Because you are all going to go see Santa in the labs grotto" she listened again, and slightly pulled the phone away from her ear at her daughters raised voice "Lynsey would you like to see Uncle Gil, Brass and Ecklie all dressed up as Santa and Elves" she paused "I thought you would, now get your ass over here as soon as you can, bye Lynsey" Catherine closed her phone satisfied the problem was solved.
"Good one Cath" Warick, Nick and Greg said in unison.
Sara's phone vibrated in her pocket to signal a text message, so she got it out, and flipped it open, reading GIL on the ID, so she opened the message which read.
