I thought to myself April Fools Day is my least favorite holiday. As I walked into the lab to get my assignment, it was just Cath, Greg and I. Before all the pranks could start, in walked Grissom. He stated that Nick and Warrick got called out to a DB at the Monaco and that it would be just us. I thought why didn't I get the call I love the overtime and I don't have a life anyway. Grissom started to talk which broke me from my thoughts, Greg and Cath you have a 419 at the Palms with that they got up and started running for there slip Cath got to it first, with Greg in tow they were out the door. I sat there waiting for grissom to tell me where we off to but he said " Sara you are flying solo tonight with the DB at Lake Mead."
I chuckled and said yeah right griss " April Fools." I sat there waiting for him to get up he just sat there he finally said get going Sara.
I climbed into my Tahoe and sat there for a little bit waiting to see if he was going to come out or if he was serious. After five minutes I pulled out into Vegas traffic.
It took only 2 hours to process the scene but with the putrid smell it seemed like years. I was glad to be back at the lab, but fearful that I hadn't been hit with any practical jokes. Walking through the lab, Cath and Greg were in trace. Warrick and Nick were in the breakroom and Griss was behind a pile of paperwork.
Good, I thought I can catch a shower before anyone can comment on the smell.
I went to the locker room and grabbed my towel and the lemon juice from my locker and headed to the shower. The water was warm and I had used almost the whole bottle of lemon juice and was pleased I didn't smell as bad as I had before. I heard the locker room door open, so I decided to stay in until whoever it was had left. It seemed like an eternity and all of a sudden the shower curtain flew open and there stood Grissom and the whole team. I was so shocked I couldn't even cover myself. Then Grissom's arm flew up and I was covered in Red Creeper. Everyone shouted, " April Fools" and took of running from the locker room.
I washed up and couldn't seem to get the red tint off my skin. As I dressed, I realized Grissom had just seen me naked. As I exited the locker room, I was looking for revenge, but I decided not to act like anything had happened. I went to trace to work, but all the while I was plotting my revenge.
