Three more days past, it was finally time to be alone. Grissom called Catherine explaining that he was sick and needed her to become a/s (acting supervisor). After he hung up the phone the doorbell rang. He got the door and Sara was standing there. Before walking in she handed Grissom a bottle of champion. He stepped aside to let her in and gestured her to sit down. She sat on the couch and watched as Grissom put the wine in an ice bucket.
He offered her a drink but it was clear that she would rather have him. They were finally able to be together but all they could do was stare in each others eyes. Grissom finally reached his hand up to her cheek. She shivered a little and then put her hand on his. He took her jacket off and she smiled as he took it off her shoulders and carelessly through it on a chair next to them. He nibbled on her ear and sucked on her neck. He laid her down on the couch carefully and she ran her fingers threw his grey hair. She lifted is head and give him a big kiss on his lips. They were not going to go slow, though they tried, because of all the built in emotion that they hid since they meet.
He heard the doorbell. He didn't get it; he thought it was just some girl scouts selling something. He continued to kiss her succulent neck. She ran her hands down his back. The bell rang again. He got up and saw it was Catherine. He waved his hand at Sara motioning her to go hide. Once she was gone he opened the door fully and let Catherine in.
"How are you feeling Giss?" Catherine said sympathetically. She smiled looking around the room as if she was expecting some one to be there. "Do you need anything? I could pick something up for you."
"I'll be fine. I just need some rest." He replied.
"Are you sure?" he nodded. "Why aren't you in bed? You look like your expecting some one Gil." He looked a little nervous. "You look flushed. You should probably take a lie down. I better go, let you get some rest. Bye." Gil smiled.
The door shut behind her and Sara walked out of the bathroom. "So where were we?" Sara said trying to refreshen the mood. Grissom walked over to the kitchen.
"He opened the oven, "dinners ready. Why don't you go sit down at the table? I'll be right there." Grissom sat down and served Sara the salad and Cook vegetables he made.
"You cooked?"
"Yes I did."
"I didn't know you could cook."
"Well it's not that much." They started to eat. They couldn't stop staring at one another. "So" Grissom broke the silence. "How did the date with Greg go?"
"I can't believe you brought that up."
"Well?"
"Well what?"
"You're avoiding the question."
"It was ok I guess. It was fun."
"That's good. Do you want some more wine?"
She shook her head. She walked over to Grissom after she was done eating and stood behind him with her hands on his chest. "I want you so badly right now" she whispered into his ear. He put his fork down and stood up. He stood and faced her and he put his arms around her. "I'll be right back so hold that thought" she walked to the bathroom.
He was clearing the table when in walked Nick. "Hey Grissom." He walked over to the table. "You doing ok?" Grissom finished putting the plates in the sink trying to hide the fact that there was a second person there with him.
"Ya." Grissom didn't know what to say "You know what, I need some sleep so, I don't mean to be rude but, do you mind leaving."
"No not at all, just thought you might need something." Nick walked out the door; more like Grissom pushed him out before Sara had a chance to come out of the bathroom.
When Sara did come out of the bathroom Grissom had cleared the table and Nick had left. Grissom was sitting on the couch and looked confused. Sara walked over and sat next to him. "Who was at the door?" Sara said looking at Gil.
"Nick. He came to see if I needed anything." Grissom replied.
"You know this isn't the last time some one is going to come over."
"Ya, I know." He looked down at the ground with disappointment. "What are we going to do? It's not like I can just go away for the week."
"That's a perfect idea."
"What."
"We can go on vacation."
"I can't just
leave. Besides where would we go?"
"You're right. How are
we going to spend the week in secrecy then?"
"What if we didn't leave," Sara looked up in confusion. "What if we stayed in Las Vegas?"
"What are you
talking about?"
"We could stay in a hotel. I would still be
able to get to the lab if they called me; so they wouldn't suspect
anything; and we would be together, alone. We could finally have
privacy."
"That's perfect. When do you want to leave?" she looked at him very seductively.
"We should leave tomorrow morning. But tonight we will stay here." He Pulled Sara close to him. She kissed him gently on the lips. They went to the couch and started kissing. She pulled his shirt off. 'Ring ring' his phone went off. "Hello this is Grissom… Yes… I'm off duty today… I know but I'm sick… I can't go… I… yes but… I'll be there soon." He hung up the phone and looked at Sara. "I got to go" he reached for his shirt and pulled it over his head. "The mayor is making me go to-"
She cut him off. "I understand, it's your job. You go ahead, we can get together tomorrow."
"You can stay here. I'll be gone ten minutes at the most."
Sara looked at Grissom, "Ok, I'll be waiting."
He grabbed his jacket and closed the door behind him. She stayed up all night waiting for him. When he got home it was almost midnight. He was gone for three hours. He felt so bad. He thought she had already gone home. He flipped on the lights and saw that she had fallen asleep on the couch. He went over to her and kneeled down next to the couch. He put his hand on her forehead pushing away her hair and kissed her on her forehead. He picked her up in his arms and carried her to his bed. He pulled the covers down and placed her under them. He couldn't get over the fact of how much he loved seeing her lay in his bed.
