…..

She wasn't supposed to be at work, her doctor had told her to relax. But she was just not comfortable at home.

…..

Walking into his office, Grissom gave his head a shake. He knew she should have been at home but she could be so stubborn.

About to sit down at his desk, Grissom noticed something sitting in the middle and on top of all his paperwork. Picking it up, Grissom didn't even have to examine it. He knew what it was.

Quickly leaving his office, he headed to the lunchroom.

…..

Sitting at the table, Sara made sure her foot was on a stool and that she was comfortable.

…..

"Is Sara here?" Grissom asked as he walked into the lunchroom and stopped.

"Nope, sorry Gris," Nick answered.

"Okay," Grissom said as he started to leave.

"Although, she mentioned something about the Layout room," Greg added as Grissom left.

…..

Grissom saw Sara fiddling with something on the table as he entered the Layout room.

Grissom stopped on the other side of the table and arched an eyebrow.

Sara smiled as she pushed something towards him.

Sitting down, Grissom picked it up and looked it over.

HEY BABE

No instructions needed as he popped it in his mouth then looked through the candy hearts.

MY LADY

Sara stifled a giggle as Grissom made a face. Pushing a heart over as well as the bag, she waited.

NICE GUY

'Sour candy hearts,' Grissom read to himself. Now he understood.

YOUR GUY

Popping it into her mouth once she read it, Sara searched for another one.

WISE GUY

Grissom arched an eyebrow as he read it.

STAR EYES

Sara smiled

MY MAN

Grissom smiled back.

U-R NICE

Sara laughed.

HOT MAIL

Again Grissom arched an eyebrow as Sara shrugged her shoulders.

U-R CUTE

Avoiding the purple ones, Sara popped a green one into her mouth.

RED HOT

Grissom just looked at her as he slid one towards her.

WILD ONE

Pushing one over, Sara waited her next turn.

CUTE

Grissom always loved this game.

MY GIRL

Sara had all ready picked another one out.

ME & U

Grissom replied.

U-R SURE

Sara answered.

YES DEAR

Digging through the hearts, Grissom pushed another towards her.

AWESOME

Sara knew how she wanted to answer.

TOO HOT

Grissom countered.

YOU TOO

Sara admitted something.

IT'S LOVE

Smiling at Sara, Grissom popped a white one in his mouth, making a weird face at Sara as he pushed another one at her.

U & ME BABE

Sara almost couldn't believe she was going to miss this game this year. She was glad she put a stop to that.

UR4 ME

Grissom was really into it.

U-R GR8

Sara bit the inside of her lip as she searched for a reply.

EZ 2 LUV

Grissom smiled.

EZ 2 PLEZ

Sara smiled back.

I'M YRS

Grissom was realizing that they weren't the best candy hearts, in taste and messages but he kept on.

OH BOY

Sara couldn't resist.

MY PET

Grissom had a counter.

TOO MUCH

Sara laughed.

SURE MATE

Grissom just shook his head.

MY GIRL

Oh she was.

COOL DUDE

Watching Sara shrug her shoulders, he understood her. The choices were bad.

U-R MINE

Sara nodded her head in agreement.

IT'S TRUE

Grissom countered.

TRUE LOVE

Sara understood.

LOVE

Searching the pile, Grissom pushed one over and waited.

ITS LOVE

Noticing the spelling was a little different on this, she let it go.

I'M SURE

Grissom was eating the bad ones, the ones that made no sense.

LOVE ME

So was Sara, eating the ones that made no sense and tasted really bad.

ONLY YOU

His stomach was getting sore.

WHAT NEXT

Her foot was getting sore.

LETS KISS

'That was the best part of the game,' Grissom thought to himself.

WHEN?

She had two hearts; she wasn't sure which one to use. Popping one in her mouth, she placed the other in front of him.

YES NOW

Grissom smirked.

KISS KISS

Popping a few more in her mouth, Sara searched for her next one.

LOVE YOU

Seeing there wasn't many left, Grissom grabbed two, got up from the table and walked around it to her. Opening his palm, he let her read it.

BE MINE

MY LOVE

Sara smiled as she took her leg off the stool and stood up.

Holding onto the hearts, Grissom kissed Sara on the lips. He always enjoyed the outcome of the game. He always got to kiss Sara.

Giving her a hug, Grissom whispered in her ear. "Happy Valentine's Day Sara, now go home and get some rest."

Sara laughed as she pulled back. "Should I wait up for you?" But his face said it all. "Or not, I'll just get some sleep."

"I'll see you at home," Grissom said as he let her go. Before leaving her, Grissom gave her the two candy hearts.

BE MINE

MY LOVE
