Chapter 3:
A/N: So my plans for today were ruined so I thought I'd write some more. Hope you guys enjoy this chapter, please read and review.
The walk back to campus was basically Sara asking question after question about entomology to Grissom. Grissom stopped short and began walking towards a patch of grass and trees, leaving Sara cut off mid-question. Questioning Grissom's actions she silently followed him to the trees.
"Gil? What exactly are you doing?" She asked as he began climbing up the tree. When he didn't answer she followed him up.
Grissom promptly plopped down onto a branch and watched a spider climb up the trunk and the trail of ants that were hurrying up and down. Sara had taken a different route up than Grissom and noticed he was completely oblivious so she climbed up behind him and move in next to his ear. "Gil" She said softly. He jumped several feet in the air and then his descent out of the tree began and with an audible thud he hit the ground.
"Oh my god I think I killed him!" Sara thought as she rushed down the branches and to the side of Grissom. He rolled onto his back and let out a groan.
"Not very nice Sara." He let out on the end of a groan. Sara couldn't help but start giggling like a school girl as she lay her forehead on his chest and wrapped her arms around him as her laughter subsided.
He couldn't help but reach out and take the ponytail out of her hair and run his hands through it causing her to turn so her cheek was on his chest and she looked up into his deep blue eyes.
"Hi." He said softly as he smiled.
She smiled back and moved up so she was only a breath away from his lips. His heart started racing and his eyes began darkening. She hopped up with a huge smile on her face, tapped him on the shoulder and began running
"You're it Grissom!"
"Wow, what a tease. Two can play this game, hopefully my knees don't act their age." Grissom thought as he rolled onto his knees and stood up, chasing after the leggy brunette who was by now a good 50 meters away.
Grissom saw her turn a corner and he decided to take the shortcut around the other side of it. Sara was laughing and stopped to catch her breath halfway down the alleyway when she thought she had gotten a good distance away. She heard someone running and turned to see Grissom hurtling towards her, arms outstretched and the cutest grin she had ever seen plastered on his face. She smiled, turned back the way she came and began running away while laughing. As they got back into a large patch of grass Grissom caught up with her and was able to wrap his arms around her, pulling them both down and leaving them laughing and smiling on the ground. Grissom rolled onto his side and then on top of Sara, pinning her arms above her head and leaning down so he was directly in her face, lips almost touching, eyes intensely focused on hers.
"I do believe you are it now dear." He smiled his crooked boyish smile, switching so only one hand was used to pin hers and bringing the other down to gently glide his fingers down her cheek and jaw.
Grissom stood up, brushed off his clothes, looked down at Sara, smiled again, took a business card out of his pocket, scribbled something down on it, handed to her and began walking away backwards so he could talk to her.
"See you at the lecture tomorrow, any more questions and you can email or call me. Any questions. Look forward to hearing from you. I had a lovely time." He winked, smiled and walked away, leaving her with her jaw on the ground before she rolled onto her side and watched him walk away, smiling to herself and spinning the business card in her hands, glancing down at the neat handwriting with his hotel room phone number and email address on it.
"Damn that man has an amazing ass."
"Wow that woman is amazing. I hope that move was the right one and I didn't just send her away."
A/N: So things are starting to heat up between the two love birds. I thought Grissom's move was amazingly cute and I would totally be chasing after a man like that. Hope you're enjoying reading as much as I'm enjoying writing.
