Just So You Know – Chapter 4
Sara and Grissom said goodnight to everyone. They were the last ones in Warrick and Catherine's room. "Do you need some help getting Griss down to your room Sara?" asked Warrick.
"No, I think I'll be fine. Thanks for the offer. Goodnight guys," said Sara helping Grissom stand and walk out the door.
"I'm ffinne Ssara," Grissom slurred a little, "Really, I amm." He stumbled a little but Sara managed to keep him up.
"No, you're drunk. Put your arm around my shoulder and let's at least get you in the room." Grissom put his arm around her shoulder as she held him up and they walked the couple feet to their room. She opened the door and closed it behind them when they got in. Grissom fell on to the first bed laughing. "Fine you can have my bed for the night," said Sara trying to hold in her laughter.
Grissom tried to untie his shoes and was so unsuccessful. Sara helped him take off his shoes. He slid his pants off and then crawled to the top of the bed and hit the pillows and was sound asleep. Sara laughed and got herself ready for bed, taking an aspirin before she dosed off. She slept in his bed that night, since he was in hers.
The next morning Sara woke up and got ready for the day. She check to make sure Grissom was still breathing. He hadn't moved at all. She got a piece of paper and wrote him a note. She filled a glass of water and put the bottle of aspirin and the glass of water with the note on the bedside table. She went down to the dinning room for breakfast with the rest of them. "Hey guys," she said as she walked in and noticed the rest of the gang was already there sipping coffee and trying to get rid of the hangover.
"Hey, want some coffee?" said Warrick.
"Love some," said Sara. Warrick handed her some coffee and she sat down at the table with the rest of them waiting for the food to be served.
"How's Grissom, he had kind of a rough night last night?" said Greg chuckling at his memories that he could actually remember from the night before.
Sara laughed a little and took a sip of her coffee before answering his question. "He's still passed out. I got him to the room and he fell on my bed, since I have the one closest to the door. He tried taking off his shoes but was so unsuccessful. It was hilarious guys, seriously," said Sara trying to hold in her laughter. "I helped him with his shoes and he passed out. When I woke up he was in the same position that he passed out in. Don't worry he's still breathing. I don't know how long it will be before he wakes up though."
Everyone was laughing now. Amanda and her family served the food and sat down to eat with them. "So how was you're night?" Amanda asked the group.
"It was nice," said Catherine trying not to laugh anymore.
"Where's Grissom?" asked Amber (Amanda's sister).
Trying to hold in her laughter Sara said, "He had a rough night last night. He's still sleeping."
They all ate their breakfast and then went their separate ways with still no sign of Grissom. Sara went up to their room to check on him. She opened the door quietly. "Griss…" All she got for a responds was a light moan. She laughed a little before she walked completely into the room to see where he was. He was just starting to stir. He had rolled over.
"Sara… Ouch… Okay I'm not moving… Ouch," said Grissom.
Sara walked completely in the room seeing him holding his head. She walked over to the side of the bed and grabbed four aspirin out of the bottle and the glass of water. She handed him the pills and said, "Take these you will feel better, not right away but you will eventually." She handed him the glass of water and he took the pills. Taking the water back she set it back on the bedside table.
"What happened last night?" he said just above a whisper in a raspy voice.
Sara smiled, "We played quarters in Cath and Rick's room and you didn't do so well."
"I can tell," he said and laughed a little.
"Rest your eyes and get some more rest. We already had breakfast and if you want I can go get something for you to eat."
"That would be nice. Thank you."
"I'll be right back. Rest okay."
"Hmmm."
Sara left the room and went down to the kitchen she got something for Grissom to eat and took it back up to their room. When she came back he was dress and just laying on top of the covers of his own bed this time. He had his hand over his eyes and the shades pulled. It was pretty dark in the room. Sara put the food on the table that was in their room. He removed his hand from his face and looked at Sara. He was so embarrassed at his state. She smiled and said, "Here's your breakfast. You need anything else. I can leave you alone if you want."
Grissom stood up got his balance and walked over to the table and sat down. He motioned for Sara to sit next to him. "Thanks. You don't have to leave unless you want to. It is your room too," he said and then started to eat. Sara sat next to him and watched him eat. Every once in a while he would glance up at her and she would look away. He would smile and look down at his plate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile Catherine, Warrick, Nick, Julie, Greg, and Lauren all went on a horseback ride together. They found the swimming hole that Grissom and Sara said they had went to. Greg and Lauren ran to the top of the waterfall and jumped in holding hands. Nick was tickling Julie trying to convince her to go up the waterfall with him. Finally, she caved and they raced to the top of the waterfall. Holding hands they jumped in. Catherine and Warrick sat at a picnic table making small talk and flirting. Greg was chasing Lauren around in the swimming hole. Nick and Julie were on the under the waterfall. Eventually, Catherine and Warrick joined them. They all had a picnic lunch and then headed back just in time for dinner.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grissom and Sara had spent the day together and some time on their own. For a while they had relaxed in the hot tub together. Grissom spent most of the day recovering from the prior night's game.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They all met back up at dinner. They talked about all the fun they had at the swimming hole. Grissom said he wouldn't be drinking alcohol for a while. That made everyone laugh, including him. They shared a nice dinner and then went out and sat around a campfire eating s 'mores and telling ghost stories. Then eventually they all called it a night and went to their rooms.
TBC.. Thanks for reading. I will hopefully be able to think of new stuff to add to this story. Don't worry it's not done yet. They've only been there three days and they will be spending another four days there. Please review and let me know what you think. Thanks again for reading my story. Feel free to read any of my other stories as well. One that is similar to this is Two Weeks In The Bahamas.
