Forensicsfan Snickers Challenge

A/N Okay guys be gentle. This is my first attempt at a challenge. And yes I am stuck beyond stuck on Whispers. So please if you have ideas, I am all ears!


Popit George!

Walking in from the kitchen, having just got a fresh Strawberry Kiwi Snapple, Sara plopped down into the chair in front of the computer, settling in for a serious game of Popit on Pogo. Nick being his lazy self had already made himself comfortable with a Dallas Detroit game.

"What are you playing?" He asked throwing a piece of popcorn at her, and successfully making his aim true when it landed on top of her head and then rolled off.

"Popit." She said, watching as George, their white and calico tabby pounced on the popcorn, batting it around before eating it.

"Pop what?"

"Popit." Was all she said as she cleared the board of all balloons, smiling.

"Ahh" trying his damnedest to look as if he knew exactly what Sara was talking about. "And the point of this game is what? Exactly?" He asked getting up from his spot, leaving a butt dent in the leather cushions.

"Nice butt!" she said giggling when she seen the dent.

"I know!" pulling up a chair, he decided to find out just what this popit was all about. He watched for a solid fifteen minutes before asking here what the point of it was.

"You pop the balloons and you get points" She said snatching a pepper packet that George was trying to get from the desk.

"Okay, why would you want to sit in front of the computer and pop balloons? I mean points? I don't get it" he said with a doppy look on his face.

"Nick… It has the same effect as bubble wrap. It is fun. That is what us, humans are good at. Stupid, pointless, things that make us happy. You should try it some time." She said clearing another board.

"Oh I can think of something much more fun, then sitting around popping bubbles." He said pulling her away from the desk and starting down the hall to the bedroom. He heard the computer making those same annoying popping noises as when Sara was playing. He looked over and seen George batting at the mouse, making the cursor pop the balloons.

"Popit George!" Nick said then pulling Sara in the bedroom and shutting the door.


By passing the living room the next day, Sara went out side to get the mail. Flipping the mail, bill, bill, bill. Then came across a postcard from Catherine and Lindsay, from the Grand Canyon National Park, after reading that mom and daughter were having a blast, while on her much need vacation, Sara went back in the house, hearing some familiar noises, she followed her ears into the living room, seeing a funny sight. Nick at the computer, clicking away at the colorful balloons, that just last night, he had said there was no point. George was of course helping by hitting Nick's finger. As she walked closer she could see that there were 12,930 more point in her cashe then there were before.

"Having fun?" she asked, laughing as Nick jumped in his seat.

"I'm not playing." He said with an innocent look on his face. "George did it." The poor guy was trying so hard to be serious.

"Really? Nick come on, George can not get over 12,000 point on his own. Admit it, you like it." She said.

"Alright. Yes it does have the same appeal of bubble wrap." He said

"Thank you! Come on I'll make you some pancakes." She said kissing him. They went about there daily ritual, all the while, George played himself a serious game of tap the button and watch the things go POP and see the pictures fall.


Okay, so this is probably crap, but I still want your opinions. Tell me should I try another challenge or stop while I'm at it?
