Gil and Sara hopped into Gil's SUV and started driving away.
"Grissom, where are we going.?" Sara asked.
Griss didn't respond. He pulled out his cellphone and dialed a number.
"Yes, Hello Cath, Grissom here... Yes.. Im fine how are you?... Oh, Well I'm just letting you know that you are in charge again tonight... Yes.. no Im not telling you... Oh and Sara will not be in tonight either... Cath not now... Bye Catherine!" he shut the phone and turned it off.
"There now thats taken care of, lets enjoy our day off" he looked over and her and smiled.
"Ok, but first can you tell me where were going?" she asked again laughing.
Grissom loved seeing Sara laugh. Now that he thought of it, he hadn't seen her laugh in a long long time. Why was she so sad all t he time?
"Well, theres this thing I do when I just need to get my mind off things."
They were now turning onto a different street. The only place that Sara could remmeber being at the end of this road was an amusement park.
"Gil, are you taking me to an amusement park?" Sara asked.
He didn't respond, but she got her answer when he pulled the SUV to a halt infront of the Las Vegas Amusement Park. Sara couldn't help herself. She burst out laughing.
"Whats so funny?" Grissom asked her quizzly.
"Ha, I.. Just i do... You come to.. Amusement parks?..." She started laughing even harder.
"Ok bozo, lets go." he said as he climbed out of the car.
When he got around to her side, he noticed how she managed to stop laughing and compose herself.
"Griss, sorry I shouldn'th ave done that. I hope i didn't insult you."
He laughed, "Lets go,"
He took ahold of her hand and started walking in the direction of the biggest roller coaster in the park.
When they reached the ride, Sara looked stunned.
"We're not actually going to ride on that thing right?"
Grissom laughed, and said, "Of course we are. Come on,"
He bought the tickets and they got seated on the rollercoaster.
"Gris, how did you convince me into doing this?" Sara asked laughing.
"Hey hey, This is going to be fun dont worry!" He reached over and grabbed ahold of her hand.
The ride started moving.
"Oh.my.gosh." Sara screamed.
Before they knew it, the coaster came to a halt. They got out of their seats and headed for the exit.
"Wow Gris, That was.. well amazing. Thank you so much" she stated.
"Haha, well I'm glad you enjoyed it."
They spent the rest of the afternoon holding hands and walking around the park. They bought some popcorn and were enjoying themselves.
"You know, this is sorta like our first date," Grissom said as they were getting to leave.
"Yeah, the best first date I ever had." Sara replied.
"So what do you want to do now? I really dont want to be intruding, but I dont feel comfortable with you going to your place tonight. After what happened last night, and I dont know. I would blame myself forever if anything ever happened."
Sara continued staring at her feet.
"Wow Gris, I dont know what to say.. I didn't know you cared that much about me"
"Of course I do honey! If that man had done any harm to you last night, I dont know what I would to."
He pulled her into a hug, and she wrapped her arms around his waist.
"So. Come to my place tonight? We can watch some movies if you want."
Sara couldn't wipe the smile off her face.
"I'd love to," she whispered back.
