Chapter 9
They got to work an hour or two late. Not early or late just there and everyone was suspicious but they also remembered Sara's car was still in the shop. The bad thing is that her clothes were wrinkled and he was flushed. Also her car came out of the shop today. As they stood in the break room getting coffee before starting with the assignments she grabbed her phone as she had a thought.
'Will you put me with you tonight? Should we tell them yet about the BABY?' –SS she texted him.
As he got coffee his phone vibrated as he realized Sara had just sat down. He grabbed and read the text she sent him.
'Sure, but that might draw some suspension to us. About the BABY not yet.' –GG he texted back.
As
she grabbed her phone when it started to vibrate Nicky walked in with
Cath and Warrick right behind him like to little lap dogs.
"Come
on Nicky tell us."
"NO"
Sara wasn't paying attention but she guessed he wouldn't tell them about his date last night that he had and they were upset. She texted Grissom back with this comment. 'Does that bother you because I could careless what they think, I mean I'm ready to tell them when you are. That's smart about the baby don't want to scare them.' –SS
He grabbed his phone as the other three sat down and continued their conversation that he wasn't paying attention to and neither was Sara. He read her text and laughed to himself because he could see it all play in his mind when he told them. 'Can't you just see the chaos we would cause in two seconds if we told them right now. I mean mouths a gap and Nick screaming to high heaven. They would believe we were either playing around with them or that we were abducted by aliens and right now Nick would believe that way to much.' –GG
She read her text and laughed out load but they didn't notice because apparently Nick had gotten to the good part of the date and everyone were all ears except Sara and Grissom of course. 'Yeah I could see all that and that's what scares me about this group. Do you know what they are talking about?' –SS
He grabbed his phone and then everyone noticed that Gil and Sara was having their own private conversation of their own and that made them wonder a little bit. 'No but I think they just realized we are having our own conversation without them and I think they're a little suspicious. What do you think we should make this good.' –GG
As her phone vibrated she realized that Nick was staring at her and Gil had a goofy look on his face. She picked it and read his message and smiled. 'Well honey that is completely up to you but I think we should pair ourselves with different people then let them "accidentally" see our texts and see what they think about them. What do you think?" –SS
He grabbed his phone one more time read it and laughed to himself. 'I think your right but I was looking forward to working with you maybe next time I love you.' –GG
She read and smiled to herself 'Me to and I love you to.' –SS
He wasn't going to grab it but decided to anyways and read it a smiled. He passed the assignments out and paired himself with Catherine and Sara with Nick and Warrick. She was closer to Nick and Warrick than Catherine. He was closer to Catherine so that seemed a little better.
As she walked out he thought about how much he loved watching her walk.
"So who were you texting during assignment handout?" Nick asked a little curious.
"My boyfriend, we've been together a little while. Al least since my birthday." She replied smiling to herself.
"Really, does Griss know?" Warrick asked a little surprised.
"Yeah Gi…Griss knows." She caught herself before her slip hoping neither of them noticed.
They both noticed but thought it was just a slip of the tongue. Or it could be because Griss and Sara have become friendlier now. All of a sudden her phone vibrated. As she picked it up Warrick noticed it said it was from Griss.
'Have they started the third degree because Cath has and I am about to slap her?' –GG
'They have asked questions but not third degree but I think Warrick noticed the fact that the text was from you. Is it about the doctor's appointment? I love you and I miss you.' –SS
As
she set her phone back down Warrick looked at her. "Was that
him?"
"Maybe why do you ask?"
"Just wondering."
"So Warrick how are you and the misses?" Nick asked completely clueless about everything.
"Me and the misses have been split for about three months smart one. Me and Cath are seeing a little bit of each other now." Warrick said with DUH hanging on his tongue.
"Oh I didn't know or just haven't been paying attention. Anyways how are you and …" He was interrupted by Sara's phone vibrating.
This time Nick noticed it was from Griss also. 'Yeah, I told her you were if that's okay? So does Warrick know yet and why didn't Nick notice?' –GG
'That's fine just tell her not to tell anyone. I think Nick just now noticed and no Warrick has known since yesterday but he is playing along, because he was like was that him and I was like maybe why do you ask? And he just looked at me a little funny and Nick been a little oblivious lately.' –SS
She sat her phone down smiling watching Warrick and Nick act like they were working on the experiment instead wondering what is going on. Maybe she should tell them or should she let them sweat it out. Just then her phone went off again. She started to rub her neck and then she jerked her hand back with pain. Then she winced and realized both Nick and Warrick had noticed and the saw the red, blue and purplish bruise on her neck. They decided to wait for her to say something about it. Then her phone vibrated again.
'Well all right what's happening now? And I think you look really sexy in that outfit today. Are you wearing that underwear I bought you and are you coming home with me tonight?' –GG
'They noticed the bruise because I touched and winced. They haven't said anything about it. I let them read that casually so I think they get it now and yes I am wearing that underwear you bought me and of course I coming home with you tonight.' –SS
"How long have you and Griss been together?" Nick asked
"How long has he liked the taste of your skin?" Warrick asked with a grin on his face.
"I don't know what you're talking about boys." She said as she got up to find Gil so she could get a make out session in before he leaves.
Warrick and Nick just look at each other as Sara walks out laughing to herself.
"What
are you doing?"
"Fixing to leave to go out to the field. Why?"
He asked as she walked in.
"Oh well I wanted to talk to you." She said as she walks over to his desk then she remembered the windows but noticed he started to close them with blinds.
"What about?"
"This…" she said as she closed the space between them and kissed him hard on the mouth. As she kissed him all the air just ran out of his lungs. He could feel the passion and frustration she was keeping held in. And then he decided to let some of his out. 'Knock, Knock, Knock.'
"You better get that right."
"Yeah maybe we can finish this later like in the closet down the hall in about an hour."
"Fine by me see you in an hour."
'KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK'
"See you then"
"Yeah."
As
she walked to the door and opened it she already knew it was Ecklie.
"Hello Conrad."
"Hello Sidle."
And
she hurried past him without a second glance. He just watched her and
then looked at Gil. He had a weird smile on his face but Conrad
didn't even notice. "I was wondering if you have got done with
all your cases?"
"Yeah I sent all the reports to you
why?"
"There has been a murder at the mayor's house and I
want your whole team in on it and no screw ups."
"Why
isn't your team doing it?"
"The sheriff and the mayor both
requested your team." He said and you could hear the disdain in his
voice and then he left with a load sigh.
An
hour later Sara and Gil ran into each other right in front of the
hall closet. He had totally forgotten about his little promise but
she sure as hell hasn't.
"How convenient."
"Huh…" then he looked up at her and the sign that said hall closet. "OH…"
He smiled an apologetic smile and she knew something had happened an she was going to have to wait. "What?"
"There has been a death at the mayor's house and him and the sheriff has asked for my team…NOT ECKLIE'S"
"That's horrible and wonderful all at the same time."
"I know what you mean but I'm having a little trouble finding the rest of the team."
"I think they are in the break room."
"Well lets go and tell everyone the good news"
"Maybe later we could try out that hall closet?"
"Your on!"
They walked into the break room laughing everyone just smiles.
"What's so funny?" Cathrine asks as Warrick looks there way. Nick was to busy playing a game.
"Nothing." Which just made them laugh harder.
She and Warrick just sat puzzled.
"There's been a murder at the mayor's house and we've been called in."
"What about all our other cases?"
"They will be passed to Ecklie's team."
"Why isn't Ecklie's team taking the case?"
"The mayor and the sheriff both asked for Grissom's team." Sara shouted out really quickly.
Grissom just looked at her smiling he was so happy. He could tell that she was so proud of him. "Gil, Sara lets go we have work to do." Cath said.
"Sorry caught in the moment." He said as he noticed she was blushing like a child caught with her hand in the cookie jar.
