A/N: First Sandle fic, just wrote it for some fluffy Christmas fun! I hope everyone had a great Christmas! There should only be a maximum of three chapters on this story… I was attempting to make it a oneshot type of thing, but I failed. Ohwell, I really think this isn't that great, I actually think it sucks haha, but it's just something I wanted to write to get more into the holiday mood.

Disclaimer: Don't own anything. I wish! I didn't get CSI for Christmas, unfortunately.  haha.

"I can't believe Christmas is tomorrow!" Greg exclaimed excitedly for what seemed to be the millionth time that day.

"It's hard not to with you around, Greggo." Nick laughed. The younger CSI was definitely into the Christmas spirit. He had been wearing a Santa hat for that past two days, singing Christmas carols all the time, and was just all around Christmassy.

"What do you mean by that?" Greg asked, mock offended.

"He means you have great Christmas spirit he only wishes he had." Catherine smiled, joining in on the boys' conversation.

"Yeah, right." Warrick shook his head with a chuckle. "So what's everyone doing for Christmas anyways?"

"Well, seeing as I have to work on the twenty sixth… I can't go visit my family, so I'm just hanging out around my house." Nick shrugged not bothering to hide his disappointment.

"That's too bad Nick." Catherine commented. "Lindsay and I are just hanging out, nothing too out of the ordinary. What are you doing Greg?"

"Nothing, really." Greg shrugged.

"Nothing really? You, Mr. Christmas Spirit are doing nothing really on Christmas?" Catherine laughed.

"Well, I have nothing to do." He shrugged, trying to mask his disappointment with a goofy smile. "How about you, Warrick?"

"Same as you, Greg my man." Warrick answered. Just then a very tired Sara Sidle entered the break room.

"Hey Sara, what are you doing for Christmas?" Nick asked.

"Nothing." Sara answered like it was the most normal thing in the world. She didn't have a hint of disappointment on her face.

"You know, ever since you've worked here, I don't think I remember you ever once going home to visit your family." Nick observed. At this comment, Sara's eyes flashed angrily and she turned her attention to her coffee.

"Well, if no one's doing anything for Christmas, why don't we make some plans?" Greg suggested brilliantly. Nick and Warrick shrugged in agreement.

"Sure, as long as Lindsay can come along." Catherine nodded.

"Definitely, how about you Sara? You in?" Greg asked. Sara shook her head at the mention of her name. She had been spaced out, lost in memories of her childhood since Nick's questioning of her family.

"Um, sorry, what?" Sara asked, slightly embarrassed.

"Want to join us to hang out on Christmas?" Greg repeated.

"Uh, sure I guess." Sara nodded before turning back to her coffee and memories. She hoped that spending Christmas with her co-workers and friends would take her attention off the horrible memories of childhood Christmases that haunted her every year.

"Great!" Greg exclaimed with a silly grin on his face. He couldn't believe Sara had agreed to Christmas with them, it wasn't like her, but he sure didn't mind. "So what do we want to do?"

"Something really, really fun… but child appropriate." Catherine answered with a chuckle.

"Yeah… well, that certainly narrows down the field." Warrick smirked. Catherine hit him on the arm playfully.

"I have no idea." Nick shrugged.

"Ha! I got it!" Greg shouted, jumping out of his chair. He realized how loud he'd been and gave an embarrassed smile before sitting down and continuing. "That place… I forget what it's called. It's not too far from here, a few blocks over… dancing, living entertainment… there's a kids area too." He added for Catherine.

"I know where you mean, I've been there before." She nodded, "It would be great. What do you guys think?" Warrick and Nick nodded in agreement; they really didn't care where they went.

"Sara?" Greg asked.

"Sorry, what?" She had fallen back into her thoughts and wasn't paying attention.

"I'll pick you up around six, tomorrow, okay?" Greg told her.

"Yeah okay, sounds good." Sara nodded before leaving the room.

"What's up with her?" Warrick wondered aloud.

"I don't know, something big though. I mean, did Sara just willingly agree to hang out with us?" Nick laughed.

"Yeah, well, we'll have to find out, won't we?" Catherine announced.

"We'll find out tomorrow because right now, we've got to get back to work."
