A NOT SO QUIET SHIFT
It was another quiet shift at the lab. Graveyard was covering the day shift as days were on a team building day courtesy of Ecklie.
Cath and Nick were the only ones out on a call (a Band E on the outskirts of town); Warrick had the shift off trying to sort out the problems with Tina. This left Sara and Greg in the break room relaxing and trying to stay cool.
It was slap bang in the middle of summer and to say it was hot was a huge understatement.
"Sara pass me the water please "whines Greg.
"No, get it yourself, I'm too hot to move" came the snapped reply.
"Oh Sara please pretty please….. "
"Oh for goodness sake Greg." Sara reached over and threw the bottle of water at him. It landed straight in his gut.
"Ow that hurt!"
"Serves you right should have got it yourself you lazy toad." Sara slumped back in her chair. "It's too hot in here." She moaned.
Greg looked across at Sara noticing just how pale she looked.
"You okay Sara? You look kinda pale." He asked concerned.
"What? Yeah I'm fine." Came the quiet reply. "Just hot and bored. I've not known it this quiet for ages."
Greg let the subject drop knowing that if Sara wanted to tell him anything she would.
Just then the door to the break room opened.
"Hey guys. There's been a robbery down town. Can you go and sort out the scene." Grissom asked smiling as the young csi's whooped and smiled. "Guessed you wanted to get out of here! Don't forget to take some water with you it's going to get hotter."
Grissom looked over at Sara and gave her a small private smile.
"Go on get out of here!" he laughed as he watched her stand and grab Greg.
"Come on I'll even let you drive." she said. She turned at the door and smiled at her boss. "See you later."
"Oh yes." Grissom replied eyes bright.
"Come on then Sara, I've got the keys" yelled Greg.
Sara took one last look at Grissom, smiled and walked over towards Greg." Lead on then Greg!" she laughed.
Grissom walked out the break room and headed to his office. It was times like this that he hated to be in charge, he wanted to be out in the field. He soon lost himself in the mountain of paperwork that was covering his desk.
Chapter 2
The scene.
Twenty minutes later Greg and Sara arrived at the scene. It seemed quiet with just 1 black and white there. A young cop was leaning against it.
"Oh finally." He said. "I've cleared the scene. Looks like a bomb has gone off in there, glass is everywhere. Oh they've also knocked off the electric as well so it's a sauna in there."
Great just what we need. "Moaned Greg as he got both his and Sara's field kit out of the back.
"Are you the only one here?" asked Sara looking around.
"Yes my partner's wife has gone into labour so he had to go. Lucky bugger.Well it's all yours if you need me just yell. I'll be over there in the shade." With that he walked over to the side of the building.
"What an ass." Muttered Greg as they walked into the shop.
"Well he wasn't joking it's a right mess in here." Sara commented as she walked around." Why don't you start over there and I'll do over here."
Soon they were busy taking photos and collecting evidence, time seemed to fly by.
"Um Greg I'm just going to check if there's a bathroom." Sara stood up and walked through to the back of the shop.
Greg looked up noticing how white Sara was.
"You sure you're ok Sara? You look awful." He asked.
"Mmm feel a bit sick."
Greg got up and followed Sara into the restrooms. The sound of heaving hit his ears as Sara threw up everywhere.
"Yuck I hate being sick." Sara moaned
"Here." Greg passed her an open bottle of water to rinse her mouth out.
"Thanks. Well let's get this over with and get the hell out of here." Sara said as she took a long sip of water.
They headed back into the store everything seemed as they left it. Sara headed over to her kit and started to pack everything up, she looked up to see Greg doing the same.
"Greg can we keep my throwing up quiet?" she asked.
"Why? You know I won't say anything Sara." Came Greg's confused reply.
"No reason just don't want any fuss you know me."
"Come on then let's get out of here."
With that they both stood up and headed to the door. Just as they reached the doorway a small sound reached them.
"I wouldn't do that if I was you." A chilling voice said as the sound of a gun being cocked sounded in Greg's ears.
