Disclaimer: I do NOT own CSI.

Thanks again for all your reviews, I love reviews. Nobody told me about the major mistake I'd made in chapter 8 though. Hello…since when does Gil Grissom have brown eyes? LOL. Panic over, it's fixed now.

Here's a little happiness before an angst ridden final chapter.

Enjoy!

Fighting For Love

Chapter 9

It's been a slow shift, giving Gil and Sara plenty of time to talk and sort things out. Thankfully, they're almost there, they've had a talk and a few sneaky kisses.

About two hours before the end of shift, on Sunday morning, everyone is sitting in the breakroom when Cath walks in. Since it's been a slow night, she sends everyone home, telling them she'll call if she needs to. Gil and Sara say their goodbyes and head home, together.

"We'll take your car, so that you can drive." she smiles. "I know how much you like driving."

He sighs and takes the keys from her, and he gives her quick kiss before they settle into the car.

When they arrive home, they head straight to their bedroom. Sara watches him closely, afraid that he'll collect some clothes and sleep in the spare room again.

He smiles when he sees her staring at him.

"Why are you staring at me?" he asks.

"I'm just…I'm just seeing where you're sleeping." she stammers.

"I'm sorry about yesterday morning. There was no need for me to treat you like I did." he replies.

She smiles a little.

"It's okay. I kind of deserved it."

"No, Sara. You didn't deserve it." he says. "I listened to you crying for hours and I did nothing about it. I am so very sorry, Sara."

"I love you, Gil. I would never hurt you or cheat on you. You can trust me, you know that, right?"

"I love you too, Sara, and I do trust you. I trust you with my life." he whispers and pulls her into his arms.

Sara buries her face against his neck and they hold eachother for a few minutes.

He pulls away from her when he hears her yawn.

"You didn't get much sleep?" he queries.

She shakes her head. "Neither did you?"

He smiles and shakes his head. "Let's go to bed?"

Gil watches as Sara starts to undress, as he undresses himself, and he sighs lovingly when she's completely naked. His hands reach out to touch her as she pulls a white cotton t-shirt over her head.

He sits down on the edge of the bed and takes her hand. He pulls her into his lap and kisses her softly, desperately. He's ready for her, he wants to apologise; he needs to apologise.

She whimpers quietly and he's surprised to feel her heat on his thigh so soon.

He pulls his lips from hers and smiles as he raises his eyebrows to her.

"What can I say?" she mumbles. "I'm always ready for you."

He lifts her to the side and she lays down, bringing him down on top of her. Their mouths collide and thrash against eachother as their hands explore and touch all reachable bare skin. Sara moans at the contact as she tries to pull him harder down on top of her.

She gasps when she feels him hard, and pulsating, at her entrance before he pushes into her. She lets out her breath and starts to move quickly in time with him.

He moves one hand under her hip and lifts her, so that he can move deeper inside her.

They move against eachother with ease, their bodies fitting perfectly together. It's like her body was made specifically to match his. They're meant to be together; they always have been and always will be. They're soulmates; two halves of a whole. Even their moans and groans are in rhythm with eachother.

He feels her tighten and spasm around him and he groans against her cheek.

"Oh…Gil." she cries.

He slows his movements, making it painfully slow for her, as he uses his finger to stimulate her a little more.

"Come for me, Sara." he breathes. "Let me feel you."

"Ahh…" she whimpers. "Mmm…"

She reaches for his mouth and kisses him as an explosive climax surges through her body, making her writhe around on the bed underneath him.

Sara's hips are slowly grinding against him and he can't hold on; he lets himself go.

"Sara. My Sara." he groans.

When she feels his heat shooting through her body, her arms fall from around his neck and land at her side. She digs her fingers into the mattress, turning her knuckles white, and she moans uncontrollably as her orgasm is reignited again and again.

As he empties himself inside his wife, he leans down and kisses her neck, making a small mark; marking her as his.

When he's finished, and Sara's moans have quietened down, Gil slowly pulls out of her. He finds their duvet on the floor and he lifts it up to cover them as he lays down beside her.

Sara shifts so that she's facing him and she moves closer, one hand resting on his waist and the other is sprawled under the cool pillow.

"I love you." she whispers.

She kisses his mouth, so tenderly, his heart almost aches.

He smiles against her lips and he deepens the kiss for a second, before pulling away.

"I love you, too." he replies and pulls her further into his embrace.

No more words are spoken as they hold eachother and fall into slumber. Both sweaty, from their love making session, and both smiling; knowing that things will be okay between them.

TBC…

I lost my mojo somewhere in this chapter. My muse must have decided to start her weekend early.

I think chapter 10 will be the final chapter. Hopefully it will be up before Monday.

Please review!
