Buffy smiled at them and said "Hello."
This also surprised the team. Her voice was soft and welcoming but also crisp and decisive.
"I'm Catherine," said Catherine as she shook Buffy's hand, "and this is Sara."
Sara shook Buffy's hand and said "Welcome."
Then the boys snapped out of their trance.
"I'm Greg. Welcome to the team." said Greg ecstatic that he was the first of the guys to shake her hand.
"I'm Nick." said Nick as he shook Buffy's hand feeling stupid that all he was able to get out was his name.
"And I'm Warrick. Welcome." said Warrick with a big smile on his face.
"Well we have a half hour before Brass gets here with the assignments. Catherine can you show Buffy where the locker room is?" said Grissom.
"Sure. She can have the locker next to mine." Said Catherine.
"Thanks. I'll be in my office if anyone needs me." said Grissom and he walked out.
"C'mon I'll show you what he's talking about." said Catherine as she lead Buffy out of the break room.
As they left Sara caught Nick and Warrick starring at Buffy's ass.
She slapped them both and said, "She's here to work with us, not to entertain you."
Greg laughed at them as he made coffee, making sure to add enough for their new coworker.
As Catherine and Buffy walked down the hall Buffy noticed the Lab Techs looking up and starring as they walked by.
"Hey, Catherine." said Buffy.
"Yes, Buffy." said Catherine as she turned to look at the new girl.
"Why are the Lab Techs starring at you?" asked Buffy.
"They're not starring at me Buffy. They're starring at you." replied Catherine.
"Me! Why are they starring at me?" asked Buffy completely confused.
"Well to put it bluntly, you're hot! They probably knew that the department was hiring new people but they weren't expecting some like you. God knows we weren't!" said Catherine with a big smile on her face as she entered the locker room, "This is the locker room. You can have this locker. My locker is right here to the right of yours, Sara's is on the right of mine, the guys' lockers are directly opposite ours." Catherine pointed out each locker.
"And Grissom's is three lockers to the left of yours on the end." she finished.
"Why is his locker on our side?" asked Buffy.
"Because it is the closest to the door. He's not really a people person. Though he does enjoy talking to people that have the same interests as him." Catherine replied.
"Oh, Okay." said Buffy.
"You should put your stuff in your locker now 'cause when we get our assignments we don't come here before we leave." suggested Catherine.
"Okay." said Buffy as she opened her locker.
She opened her bag and pulled out an extra set of work clothes and put them on the shelf at the top. Then she pulled out a pair of sneakers and put them on the bottom. Last she pulled out a picture of her, Hugh Heffner, and the "Bunnies" that was signed by all of them and hung it on the hook in the back.
"Now I know why Grissom asked me to show you the locker room instead of one of the others." said Catherine with a note of understanding in her voice.
"Why?" asked Buffy as she hung her bag on the hook on the side.
"I was a dancer too." said Catherine with a smile.
