CHAPTER 2

Nick walked through from the kitchen with some drinks followed by Jim; Warrick said he would be through in a minute as he had to make a phone call.

Grissom sat next to Sara who had just sat down again as she had been to the bathroom to wash her face to waken herself up, even though the shock of her friends finding her on Grissom's sofa had woke her a bit.

Grissom just sat looking at Sara; they both didn't know what to say to the rest of them.

Warrick came through from the kitchen smiling, Nick, Grissom and Sara sat on the three seated sofa, Jim and Warrick sat on the two seated sofa. Nick raised his glass, "To Grissom and Sara, and to the best kept secret", Sara nudged Nick with her elbow in his side he nearly spilled his drink, everyone laughed, "So Gil, how long?", Jim asked, Grissom looked at Sara, Sara smiled at him, "go on tell them", Grissom laughed putting his arm around Sara, "Not long enough" he said kissing Sara on the cheek blushing,

They sat laughing and they tried to work out when they started dating as Grissom and Sara where giving nothing away,

"Vacation", Warrick shouted out, Sara looked at him and smiled, Grissom looked to the floor; they felt like victims in a case being asked questions.

Grissom stood up walked to the kitchen, Warrick said, "When you both had the same vacation time off, you never did tell us where you went Sara", When Grissom got the kitchen he got a drink and brought the bottle out with him, "Refill anyone".

Nick stood up and went to the kitchen, "think I will have a beer this time Gil if that's ok?" he said as he walked into the kitchen to get a beer from the fridge, Grissom came back into the kitchen, "If you want us to go just say, we know it must be a shock us finding out, but we are all happy for you" Nick said to Grissom, Grissom and Nick hugged, "No Nick you are all fine, we would have told you one Day" Grissom said as Sara came into the kitchen, "Yeah one day, but what year", she said laughing at the two men hugging.

Everyone was sat back on the sofas, talking apart from Jim he had fell asleep with his head leaning back on the sofa, Nick said laughing, "We should get Jim home before he starts to snore", Warrick stood up, "Give me five minutes Nick and I will come with you", he said looking at his watch.

Sara put her hand on Grissom's leg as they sat next to each other, she just wanted to be left alone with him, Grissom locked eyes with Sara he just wanted the same, to be left alone with Sara.

There was a knock at the front door, Warrick smiled and Grissom and Sara jumped as they had been in a world of there own.

Grissom stood up and walked to the door opening it, "Catherine what..." Catherine stopped him, "You think I was going to miss this", she said walking through the door. Sara stood up opened mouth and Nick looked at Warrick smiling and said, "Was that who you where calling earlier Warrick", Nick looked at Sara standing open mouthed, he laughed.

"It's okay Sara , Catherine is just giving us a lift, Nick try and wake Jim up", he said as Catherine walked to stand by Warrick, Catherine kissed Warrick on the lips, by this time Grissom was standing beside Sara.

Nick, Sara and Grissom all stood open mouthed now.

"Well I thought since your secret was out, we would share ours with you all", Warrick said as he put his arm around Catherine's shoulders.

Sara asked, "When have you two been together?".

Warrick looked at Catherine and said, "Lets just say not as long as you two", he said laughing.

Everyone was laughing when Jim woke up, "What have I missed", he said trying to stand up beside the others.

Jim, Nick, Warrick and Catherine left ten minutes later after asking a few Catherine and Warrick a few questions.

As Grissom closed the door to his visitors, he turned to Sara and said, "Well that was a fun night", Sara laughed and put her arms around him, "Lets go to bed Gil", she said.

Grissom turned the lights out and they both went into the bedroom.

They both lay in bed holding each other and looking into each others eyes, "Well at least we have one secret left Gil", Sara whispered.

Grissom kissed her lips and said, "Yes and we will keep that secret till after the wedding honey",

They both fell asleep in each others arms.
