Chapter 1: Pure Passion
Gilbert Grissom stopped his car outside a house on Autumn Road. He looked up at the house and smiled. It was his girlfriend, Sara Sidle's house. One month ago, they started an affair after Sara had told him what had happened to her and her family when she was a child. They had been seeing each other ever since, behind Hank's back.
Gil got out of the car and approached Sara's house and knocked on the door. Sara answered it and smiled at him'. 'I thought you weren't coming,' Sara said.
'I said I would didn't I?' Grissom replied. 'I've never made you a promise I couldn't keep.'
Sara stepped aside and let Gil in. He looked at her and smiled. She was only wearing a silky black dressing gown. Gil closed the door and pinned Sara up against the wall and kissed her softly on the lips. She deepened the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. When they both pulled away, Sara led him through to the kitchen and he saw what she'd prepared. A candlelit dinner for two. 'You really thought this through, didn't you?' Gil said.
'You bet I have, Hank's doing a late shift and the hospital so I thought I'd invite you round instead,'
Gil moved back over to Sara and gently kissed her neck. 'Come on Gil, I've cooked,' Sara said.
Sara and Gil sat down and ate their dinner. They talked and laughed for the next couple of hours. After dinner, Sara was doing the washing up when Gil came back through to the kitchen. He put his arms around Sara's waist and gently kissed her neck again. 'So, Sara what's for dessert?' he asked.
Sara turned around and kissed Gil on the lips. He lifted her up as she wrapped her legs around Gil's waist. Sara pulled away, 'What's up Sara?' Gil asked.
'Lets go upstairs,' Sara smiled at Gil and Gil kissed her once again.
He let Sara drop to her feet and she held out her hand to il. He took it and Sara led him over to the stairs. Gil kissed Sara passionately on the lips and gently pushed Sara backwards onto the stairs. He moved his kisses from her mouth to her neck. He pulled away and looked down at Sara. Gil held out his hand to Sara so he could pull her up and she took it. Once Sara, was stood up, Gil picked Sara up and carried her upstairs to her and Hank's bedroom, kissing her all the way there…
Gil was woken up very suddenly; he looked over at the clock. It was 1 o'clock in the morning. His arms were still wrapped around Sara; hers were also wrapped around him. Gil was sure he'd heard the door shut downstairs, he decided against going to investigate. Instead, he turned towards Sara and went back to sleep.
--
Gil was right. He had heard the door shut, Hank had returned. He looked at the clock in the living room clock and decided not to go upstairs; he didn't want to disturb her. Hank eventually lay down on the sofa and went to sleep.
Gil woke up again at about 5 o'clock. He looked up at Sara and smiled. He regretfully slipped out of bed and got dressed. He got to the bedroom door and took one final glance at the sleeping figure of Sara. He smiled once more and left the bedroom. Gil slowly crept down the stairs and poked his head around the living room door. He saw Hank asleep on the sofa. Gil withdrew his head and moved quietly over to the door. He unlocked the door and walked out of Sara's house, shutting the door behind him.
