A/N: I apologize for not updating yesterday, and I'm sorry to those of you who I told that there would be another chapter last night. I was going to update, but I was hit with some writer's block halfway through the chapter. Originally I wasn't going to update today because of the CSI season nine premiere and all, but I figured since I didn't give you a chapter last night, I would give you one today. So, here it is!
7 hours earlier (6 pm)…
Having sent the e-mail to the paranormal investigators an hour ago, Sara checked her e-mail now, after dinner. The computer screen blinked with 'one new message'. Sara opened it. It read:
Ms. Sidle,
I do believe that you and your boyfriend are experiencing paranormal activity. My brother, Steve, and I can come into Vegas to talk with you in, let's say, two days. Just tell me when a good time would be for you, and we can then discuss details further.
Noreen
"Gil!" Sara called to him from the living room. "Come here!" Grissom entered the room.
"Yes?" he said, looking over her shoulder at the laptop screen.
"I got a response from Noreen."
"Noreen?"
"Yeah, Noreen, one of the paranormal investigators I told you I would be e-mailing."
"Right… What did she say?"
"That she agrees with me about this and she can come to Vegas to speak with us in two days."
"Okay. Fine," Grissom somewhat, albeit reluctantly, agreed. Sara sent Noreen another e-mail.
5 hours earlier (8 pm)…
Sara made her way down the stairs, gripping the railing as she went, her wet hair swaying at her shoulders.
"Tired?" Grissom asked her, as she entered the living room. She usually took a shower a little while before going to bed, plus, she was already wearing her sleep clothes, even though it was their night off.
"Yeah," Sara said as she curled up next to him on the couch.
"Then let's go to bed. I'm sure we could use the extra sleep," Grissom said as he stood from his seat on the couch. He held out his hand, and Sara took it, pulling herself up. Grissom headed to the stairs but Sara froze.
"I'm not sleeping up there until we get this resolved," Sara said, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Sara, come on. Nothing is going to hurt you."
"I'm not going up there."
"Fine then," he turned to the guest room. "Let's go."
Wrapped in blankets, Sara leaned back against Grissom's chest; he wrapped his arms around her. They shared a passionate kiss before they both drifted off to sleep; unaware of the abrupt awakening they'd be in for.
A/N: Puh-leaze Review!! I'll update tomorrow, depending on my mood after watching the season nine premiere.
