I forgot to put it in the first chapter... Disclaimer: CSI and NCIS have nothing to do with me and i have nothing to do with them. If I did they would crossover all the time.
A/N: written before the season premier of CSI (Dead Doll). So I'm probably going to ignore what actually happens.
Note on the A/N: Hey look I got the first part posted before the premiere. And unless Sara ends up alive, I'm going to just pretend the premiere never happened- ever. Long Live Sara.
Washington Dulles Airport
Washington DC
Baggage Claim
The Following Week
Abby waited excitedly for Sara and Grissom to get off the plane. She had made a sign that read, welcome Sara and Grissom and wore a chauffeur's hat on her head.
"As if we wouldn't recognize you." Shouted Sara, breaking into a jog to catch up with Abby, who embraced her in a hug. Grissom followed with Bruno on a leash, happy to be out of his crate.
"Did you drug him up?" Asked Abby, looking at Bruno and petting him.
"He does look dopier than usual." Agreed Grissom
"The vet said it was a good idea." Said Sara, defensibly, "It's a long flight. He's fine." Sara pet the dog, who nuzzled her, appreciatively.
"The director sent a car. Seemed to think that you would get freaked out by riding in my hearse." She laughed, threading her arm through Sara's, "Got your bags already?"
"Yeah." Answered Sara, "We mailed most of our things. They should get here in a day or two." Grissom hauled a large suitcase behind him while Sara carried there laptops.
Abby led them to there car, they were parked at the curb, ten feet from the door.. One of the many advantages of having an NCIS agent was behind the wheel of a federally owned car.
"McGee be useful" Shouted Abby.
"You are sounding more and more like Gibbs everyday." Said McGee, angry at having been forced to make the trip to the airport.
"I'll take that as a compliment." They put the bags in the trunk and the foursome got into the car.
Meanwhile at NCIS
Autopsy
"Sara Sidle is coming back to DC." Ducky poured tea for himself and Gibbs, "Oh goodness, and this fellow she's seeing..."
"More than just seeing, Ducky." Gibbs said, taking the cookie that Ducky offered him.
"Dr. Grissom has been a great help on more than one case. I actually saw him lecture years ago at Dartmouth. Brilliant lecturer, renowned in his field."
"I know" said Gibbs, dryly, "I already talked to Abby"
"Well after everything that Sara's been through." said Ducky, "I'm not surprised her doctor suggested a sabbatical. I always thought Miss Sidle would make a fantastic teacher. Her becoming a criminalist was a great loss to the physics community."
"Sara Sidle waisting away in a classroom is not the best use of her skills." argued Gibbs.
"Well that's not up to you, Jethro..." Ducky was interrupted by Gibbs's cell phone, ringing loudly.
Sara and Grissom's House
Washington DC.
"This is way too much." Sara said as she walked into the gigantic house being provided to them by NCIS.
"Confiscated." McGee explained,
"You mean that the reason this house looks like it's owned and decorated by a drug kingpin is that it is." Grissom said looking around at that large rooms full of white furniture and gigantic mirrors.
"Was." Corrected McGee, showing them around the house. "We arrested him two months ago, "We'll hold onto the house as long as we need to and than we'll auction it off."
"Everything down to the mirrors on the ceiling belong to NCIS now." Said Abby
"There are no mirrors on the ceiling." Said Grissom looking up,
"Not in this room." Abby smiled at him causing Grissom to blush and Sara to laugh.
"What would you use it for if we weren't here?" asked Sara
"What ever we need it for." said DiNozzo, from the doorway. "Got a case. Gibbs wants everyone back at the office, including you." Tony nodded towards Grissom. "Welcome." her turned to smile at Sara and shake her hand.
Grissom narrowed his eyes at DiNozzo. He had heard about his reputation from Catherine, who seemed to find his often juvenile behavior funny and charming.
"They just got here." Abby pouted, pulling out her cell phone to call Gibbs. Her phone rang, as it often did when she was about to call Gibbs. He called her first.
"Gibbs." She answered, "Can I stay and play with Sara until the evidence gets back to the lab?"
"I'll call you when it's on the way."
"Oh I love you." She said, enthusiastically, causing everyone is the room to look at her. "I'll see you later. Somewhere out there is a coffee with your name on it."
"You're the best Abbs." Answered Gibbs, she could hear him smile.
"No, you are." Abby smiled and hung up the phone. "Gibbs said I can stay with Sara until you bring me evidence. Now off you go, you have a crime seen waiting for you."
"Oh I brought you your car." DiNozzo handed her a small skull key chain holding at least 20 keys, "And please don't ask me to drive it again."
"Oh, Tony." Abby hugged him, "Don't tell me your afraid to drive my little hearse."
"It's bubblegum pink." He said.
"I know that's my favorite part."
"Come on." Tony said, "Boss wants us on the scene ASAP and we still have to grab our gear. I don't want Ziva to beat us there" The men left, leaving Abby to show Sara and Bruno their new home.
Abby's Lab
NCIS
Two hours later
"And this is my lab." Abby showed Sara around, proudly introducing her to every machine.
"Greg would be on his knees worshiping if he saw this." Sara was looking at the Mass Spectrometer, "Is this the G-4000?"
"One and the same." Abby said, looking at the machine lovingly, "I call it Vera. Or major mass spectrometer."
"Spectacular." Said Sara, taking a look at the machine from every angle.
"Abby, you're going to think it's your birthday when you see what I brought you." McGee pushed a large hand truck, full of computers and telephones, "Guy was running a telemarketing firm from his living room."
"Need this tested for gunshot residue." DiNozzo walked in with several large evidence bags full of clothing. "Apparently I'm not the only one who hates getting those phone calls."
"Boss wants this done first." Said McGee
"Actually." Said Ziva, "He wants Abby to go through the primary hard drive." Abby began signing all of the appropriate papers and organizing the evidence. Sara looked at the evidence, through the bag, her curiosity peaked.
"Any reason why you are all standing around instead of working." Gibbs barked at the team. He stood next to Grissom, they both looked wearily at the team before taking long drinks from their coffee.
"On it Boss." Said DiNozzo. McGee and Ziva followed him out quickly.
"Brought you coffee." Abby handed him a cup of coffee and he discarded the empty one in his hand.
"And this is for you." Gibbs proudly handed Abby a Caf!Pow. She kissed him on the cheek and took her drink. Grissom watched the two with interest.
"Thank you."
"You got anything yet?" Gibbs asked jokingly.
"Gibbs!" Said Abby, "I've literally only had this stuff for thirty seconds." her eyes widened before she realized he was kidding.
"Well this should help." Gibbs pulled out an ID badge and handed it to Sara, "I had the director push through your credentials."
"Jethro, I'm supposed to be teaching a class at Georgetown."
"Starting in a week." Said Gibbs, "No excuses, I want results in an hour." Gibbs left quickly, leaving Grissom, Sara staring at each other and Abby rushing to work.
"I had no idea." Grissom said.
"I know." Sara smiled at him, "it's fine, what else would I be doing?"
"Grissom!" barked Gibbs from the evidence. "Get your ass in gear or I'll start calling you probie."
Gibbs's House
Later That Night
Abby walked down Gibbs steps, holding a six pack of beer. He was working on his boat and didn't appeared to not notice her. She attempted to sneak up behind her but he surprised her, turning around and quickly grabbing her and the beer before either fell to the ground.
"You scared the crap out of me." said Abby, enjoying the feeling of his arms around her.
"That's what you get for sneaking up on a Marine Abbs." He said before adding, "I didn't mean to scare you. Want a drink?"
"I'll trade you a beer for whatever is in that bottle." She handed him a beer before taking the rest to a small refrigerators in the corner of the basement, "I heard you let everyone go home at a reasonable hour."
"Never hurt to let a suspect sit alone in a cold cell over night." He answered, pouring Abby a drink and opening his beer.
"Wouldn't be because it's Sara and Grissom's first night in DC and you were actually being nice."
"Not possible." Said Gibbs. Watching as Abby grabbed sand paper, a block and got to work on the side of his boat. He took a moment to admire the sight of her, sanding his boat, reaching up in her mini skirt and short top, exposing glimpses of her many tattoos. His phone rang, loudly interrupting his thoughts.
Meanwhile at Sara and Grissom's...
Sara lay on the king size bed, staring at herself in the mirrors, suspended from the ceiling.
"Very weird." She said out loud. Bruno jumped onto the bed and lay next to her. She heard Grissom turn off the shower.
"I'm sorry about today." Grissom walked into the bedroom, wearing the robe Sara gave him for Christmas.
"About what?" She asked, genuinely confused
"I don't want you to feel pressured into working at NCIS."
"Oh that, Jethro's been trying to get me to work at NCIS for years." Sara smiled at Grissom, "It's only until I start teaching and I like working with Abby." She pursed her lips and looked at Grissom, "You look good in that robe."
"I'll have to thank the women who gave it to me." He returned her smile and walked towards the bed. Sara held her hand out to him, pulling him towards her. He kissed her- eager to feel her beneath him. He was pulling off her shirt when his cell phone began to ring.
"Ignore it." She said, kissing him again. He followed her advise and responded fully to her kiss. "How do you like DC so far?"she asked as he kissed his way from her neck to her navel.
"Liking it more every second..." Grissom cell phone rang again, followed quickly by Sara's.
"That can't be good." she said grabbing their phones. "It's NCIS."
"We need to answer it." He said, "Gibbs has these..."
"Rules, I know." Said Sara answering her phone.
