Ch. 25: A New Romance

So Laura finally moves out, and moves into Greg's place. Greg is happy that Laura is now settled, but he does keep his promise to Grissom. Pretty much, everyone is surprised about Greg and Laura now living together, and Nick and Warrick joke that Grissom must be a bit ticked about it.

Catherine and Grissom are happy; their wedding is not too far off now. They are adjusting to living together. Grissom does have some troubles like trying to be there for Catherine and Lindsey, but he's improving. Catherine couldn't believe that she finally found someone after all these years of being alone. After all she went through in her marriage and divorce to Eddie, she never thought that she'd fall in love again. She was so grateful Grissom was in her life, and he was so wonderful to her and was starting to become a great father-figure to Lindsey.

Meanwhile, a new romance was starting to bloom among the CSIs….

Nick and Sara were working on a case in the sewers; someone had dumped a body and they had to recover it.

Sara: Man, I hate cases like this! It makes me wonder why I came back to Vegas! Uh, I seriously need to shower again.

Nick: Know how you feel Sara. Hey, watch your step going back up that incline!

Sara wasn't paying attention and went up the incline too fast. She ends up losing her footing, but luckily Nick catches her.

Nick: Whoa, you ok?

Sara: *laughs*Yeah, I'm fine. I should have listened to you.

They look at each other, which Sara was still in Nick's arms. Suddenly Nick kisses Sara. Sara is shocked and surprised that Nick kissed her, but she doesn't pull away.

Nick: *after he pulls away, he becomes a bit embarrassed.*Wow, uh, sorry. I don't know what came over me.

Sara: No, don't be. I'm not

Sara smiles and she kisses Nick back. The two finally know how they feel about each other. They continue to kiss, until they realize that they are still working. Luckily for them, nobody catches them.

Back at the lab, everyone was opening their invitations to Grissom and Catherine's wedding. Their wedding was becoming the talk of the lab. Grissom and Catherine had invited everyone at the lab, even Ecklie.

For the wedding, Grissom had asked Brass to be his best man, while Catherine asked Sara to be her maid of honor. Catherine was afraid that Sara would refuse because of her history with Grissom, but she happily agreed to be in the wedding. Warrick, Tina, Nick, Greg, and Laura were also going to be a part of the wedding party. Lindsey, since she was the daughter of the bride, was also going to be in the wedding party and read during the ceremony.

A few days pass by… Nick and Sara were still very surprised about what happened between them.

Nick: Sara, we need to talk about what happened between us.

Sara: I know we do; it's just been awkward.

Nick: Sara, I don't want that. I just want to know how you feel about me, because I really care about you.

Sara: You do?

Nick: Yeah, for a while now. So how do you feel about me, since I just spilled my guts out to you?

Sara: Nick, I really like you too. Actually I was starting to get jealous when I thought Laura liked you.

Nick: Really? Well, how about dinner tomorrow night?

Sara: I'd like that.

Nick: Great, then it's a date.
