Folie a Deux

Disclaimer: It's not ours obviously, or we wouldn't be writing fanfiction, Thena would be battering Sara with a cactus, and Blue would run off with Greg.

Author's note

Thena: This is yet another attempt to justify the "revelation" at the end of the season six finale. Like our last story, this is meant to be humorous. It is meant to be OOC and we apologise if it offends anyone. We also do not condone physical violence in any case. Apart from Blue's.

Grissom smiled softly at his new girlfriend, glad for the few stolen minutes in his office.

"Do you want to go out tonight?" Sara asked hopefully.

"Sure, I'll pick you up tonight in the bugmobile"

Their precious time was interrupted by an irate blonde storming into the room.

"What the hell were you thinking? Both of you!" Catherine marched up to them with a bewildered look on her face. Before Grissom or Sara could respond, Catherine had smacked both of them across the head with a heavy folder and left again, muttering under her breath.

"Ouch!" Sara whined, "What was that?"

Grissom frowned in confusion, "I don't know but I should probably talk to her. Are you okay, pookie?"

She smiled her gap-toothed smile, "I'm okay with you here."

They leaned together for a kiss when the door swung open again. Nick Stokes walked in cautiously.

"Oh man, tell me the rumours aren't true."

"What rumours?"

"About you two."

They beamed proudly, "Yes, it's true"

Oh, God!" Now Nick was distraught, "I respected you!" He reached out and hit them.

As soon as he left, Sara looked uneasily at her boyfriend, "Do you think fate is trying to tell us something?"

"Of course not! Fate is merely man's excuse for his crimes."

His belief was sorely tested when Warrick came in.

"This is not cool, man. I couldn't eat for a week!"

By now, Grissom was resigned and didn't even flinch when the other man hit them both, just as Nick had.

Sara's eyes welled, "I don't understand! I just wanted to be happy."

Then Greg came in, tears in his own eyes, "I thought you turned me down because you were gay Sara! Choosing him over me?"

The young CSI did manage to hit them but his heart wasn't it and he ran out sobbing.

Over the next hour, the new couple endured physical abuse from all members of the lab. Grissom finally lost it when Dr Robbins hit them with his crutch, falling to the floor in the attempt.

"Okay! I'm sorry! It was wrong, I realize it now! I deserve everything I get! How many people are left?"

Robbins struggled to the door and pulled it open.

All down the hall was a mass of people, ranging from city officials down to teenagers he had never seen before. Most were armed with baseball bats and heavy implements. One teenager was even holding a poster that said "Snickers forever!"

Some people looked angry, other merely confused or betrayed.

Sara grasped his hand tightly, "Whatever happens, we face it together"

Grissom wondered briefly why someone was holding a poster with an English chocolate bar on it and then sighed, "Sara, it's not you, it's me"

"What?"

"We can still be friends…"

Author's note

Blue: Well, there you are, and I'd like to remind everyone that this is meant to be humorous and not taken seriously, so don't yell at us for being stupid or that they're out of character.

Anyway Thena, I'm not that violent….it's perfectly normal if I know how to make gunpowder….

The title is French for "A madness shared by two", so see, we're not stupid. Maybe slightly psychotic, but not stupid…..
