forbidden affections

I have been working in the Lab of the Las Vegas Police Department for two weeks now and i already feel awkward, i mean how would you feel if someone keeps staring at you but never talking to you?

And to add to my awkward feeling around the Lab, i'm also having affections for this beautifull strawberry blonde collegue.

It completely frustrates me that i don't even make a effort to iniciate a conversation. What my biggest problem is that this woman also known as Catherine Willows is the one person that is the forbidden.

From the first time i saw her i knew i had to get to know her, but it has only been two weeks that i'm here, she's a CSI:level 3 and i'm just a DNA lab tech Sara Sidle. What are my chances?

I was walking to the locker room convincing myself to make a move to get to know... ''oomf'' my inner thoughts were scrambled immediatly and all i could do was ramble because i just bumped into Catherine.

''i'm so sorry, i really didn't think what i was doing...'' i looked up and immediatly blushed ''m-my thoughts were somewhere else a-and i'm really sorry let me help you with that.''

she just stood there with an amusing smile on her face and i just knew i was blushing furiously. ''hey don't be sorry, it was my fault. I shouldn't rush around corners like that. Thank you, see you around?'' she asked me with a smile and i could only nod at that.

The day had gone by very quickly and i'm halfway up to my apartment when i got a text from Greg my fellow DNA tech.

'hey sar, wana hang out tonite?'

i hit the reply button, smiling

'what do u have on ur mind to do?'

'oh nothing special just some club crawling, so what ya think?'

i smile to myself and reply

'okay count me in!enjoy your shift, good Nite greggo'

with that last reply i climbed into my comfy bed and fell asleep to thoughts of Catherine.

The next morning came and i had to go to work. I know what you think, Greg and i don't work the same shift, see, i have day shift at the Lab. Greg works grave shift with Catherine while i'm wishing i had but yeah he doesn't want to switch shifts with me, oh and he knows about my little crush.

As i walk into the locker room Catherine walks out,on her way home and greets me. ''hey Sara'' ... Wait, what? Did she just greet me?

I walk in to see Greg smiling as he collect his belongings...something's up. ''hey Greg, what you smiling about?'' he looks at me as if i just caught him stealing cookies.

''oh it's nothing, see you tonight'' with that he winks at me and walk out leaving me with my thoughts.

-------------

My shift has gone suprisingly fast, guess it's the excitment of going out tonight. As i enter my apartment i call Greg for the details, luckily he has tonight off and i'm probably going to work with a hang over tommorow morning.

he picked up his phone to quick for my guess

''hey pretty lady''

he's such a flirt... ''hey Greggo, so what's the plans for tonight? Do i see you at the club or are you going to pick me up?''

''i'm picking you up silly. You don't even know where the club is!'' he said

oh he actually has a point there. ''okay then tell me where it is''

''nope not a chance, it's a random surprise, see you in a bit, be ready! '' and then he just hung up.

I looked at my phone and grinned 'eish that boy has too much energy'

I showered and got dressed as quick as possible and luckily I was finished in time, Greg was knocking on my door already.

-----------------

We walked into the club and Greg went straight to the bar while I searched for a booth for us to sit in, and boy what a strange club, it seems like it's a sixties theme club.

When Greg returned with our beer I knew he already had a thought on his mind.

''so Sar tell me 'bout Catherine''

i'm so good... i know him well. I just stare at him thinking of what to say 'what can i tell him?' i ask myself.

As i scanned the crowd thinking of what to say my eye catch a familiar face that's staring right at me... My only thoughts at that moment was 'shit... Why?!?'
