Chapter Nine: Sara's Reaction
Gil followed Sara out to the break room. She was not there, but the others were though. Greg, Nick, and Warrick were discussing the NFL. The Giants were playing the Dolphins and they were having a little wager. None of them was a fan of either New York or Miami, but that was the only game on that night and they needed something on which to place a friendly wager.
"I say Miami is gonna win 'Rick" Nick said.
"My money's on the Giants!"
"My Money's on the Argos" piped up Greg.
Nick and Warrick burst out laughing and looked at Greg. "Uh Greg since when do the Argos have an NFL team?"
Greg scratched his head. "Don't they? What city are they from anyway? I was listening to the news and heard the Argos won a game."
The other two guys continued to laugh and Warrick put a hand on his colleague's shoulder. "Greg, the Argos are from Toronto. Toronto Canada, They have their own league. Not as good as our league and the players aren't paid as much, but …. "
Grissom who stood in the doorway interrupted them. "Am I interrupting your ever so important NFL/CFL discussion boys?"
"No Gris, we were just waiting for you." Warrick said
"Have you seen Sara anywhere?" Grissom asked.
"Try the locker area," replied Greg.
"Thank you Greg. And Greg, Brush up on your football, as a CSI you should know what league the Toronto Argos belong to." Grissom smiled and walked away in search of Sara. He didn't see her, but he certainly heard her. She and Catherine were screaming at each other.
"Get away from my man Willows and stay away from him!" Sara was saying as she clenched her teeth ready to fight.
"Why should I, he's not your property is he? He is not your husband is he? Why isn't he fair game?" she said.
"Catherine, Sara what the hell is going on here?"
"I'm just telling Ms. Willows here that she had better keep her godforsaken hands off you" Sara seethed.
"That ain't gonna happen Sara. Not now not ever. Gil tell her what happened or I will!"
"Grissom, what is she talking about?" Sara demanded.
Grissom suddenly found his left shoe more appealing and stared at it.
"Either you tell her or I will," Catherine shouted.
Grissom raised his eyes and looked directly into the woman he loved, Sara's eyes. "Sara…you know I love you, I have some news to tell you…" he began.
Sara brightened slightly, she had news to tell him too, and she inwardly cursed whoever told him first. She, after all was going to be having his child so she was the one who wanted to tell him.
"Oh shit Gil tell her and tell her now!" Catherine said.
"Catherine's having my baby," he blurted.
Sara stared at Gil and then at Catherine and then back at Gil and then back at Catherine. She raised her hand and gave them both a slap across the face so hard in fact that they both fell on the ground.
"Well how's this for news lover-boy, I'm pregnant too…Congratulations to me huh. I found out my boyfriend slept with my coworker who was supposed to be my friend! Thanks you two thanks a lot for making my life complete." She said and stormed off in a very angry huff.
