You loved me for a little
Who could not love me long
You gave me wings of gladness
And lent my spirit song
You loved me for an hour
But only with your eyes
Your lips I could not capture
By storm or by surprise
Your mouth that I remember
With rush of sudden pain
As one remembers starlight
Or roses after rain
Out of a world of laughter
Suddenly I am sad
Day and night it haunts me
The kiss I never had
(Sydney King Russell)
"Sara, do you think someone's trying to tell us something?"
"What? That we shouldn't kiss? I think it's just a few strange coincidences. Maybe Brass and Ecklie are conspiring to keep you from having a personal life. That's it, it's a big conspiracy. This could be a case for Mulder and Scully. We should call the FBI."
"Maybe we should just take Ecklie out in the middle of nowhere and leave him tied to a tree."
"That might be too much fun."
"Screw Ecklie, he's just a jealous asshole."
"Why is he jealous?"
"Because I have the best CSIs on my team and I'm smarter than he is."
"And you're better looking."
"Thank you. I don't want to talk about him any more. I'd rather try to kiss you without Ecklie on my mind."
"So, you're gonna try again? Are you sure you can handle that?"
"I can handle it. I might explode, though, if the phone rings again."
"Well, go for it."
He slowly inched his way to his destination-her lips. He stopped an inch away waiting for the inevitable ring. He paused for a minute and waited. The gods seemed to be on his side at this moment so he closed his eyes and went for it. And wouldn't you know it...
Ring! Ring! Ring!
"Son of a bitch! Okay, now I know something's up. Two times it's a strange coincidence. Three times it's a conspiracy."
"Just answer your phone, Grissom."
"Sure, why not? It's not like it'll let me do anything else. Hello! I don't know where she is. Did you try calling her? I think she's in California visiting her family. I can't come in. I told you I have plans. Well, that's impossible because I'm in Arizona. That's none of your damn business. Yeah, okay, bye."
"Now I'm in California visiting my family? And what's none of his business?"
"He wanted to know why I was in Arizona."
"Why are you in Arizona?"
"I'm trying to have a life."
"Hey, me too. Welcome to the club."
"Does this club have a name?"
"Yeah. It's the 'You Deserve A Life' club."
"Great name. How many members?"
"Just two--you and me. But I am accepting applications for new members."
"I don't think we should let anyone else in. If we had more members it would turn into a group thing and I want you all to myself. I don't want to share you with anyone."
"I have to share you with everyone."
"That's at work, it won't happen here in Arizona."
"So, my apartment's new name is Arizona?"
"Yup. Did it have another name before that?"
"I used to call it home but now I'll call it Arizona."
"That should be funny at work. When someone asks where you're headed after shift and you tell them Arizona-can you imagine their expressions."
"You know, I could get used to this."
"What?"
"You being here."
"I could get used to it too."
"Pinch me."
"What?"
"Pinch me. I must be dreaming."
"Okay."
"Oww! Shit! I didn't think you'd actually do it. That hurt."
"You said it twice. You can pinch me back if you want to."
"I'd rather give you a fat lip. But that might be detrimental to my future plans for you."
"What are your future plans for me?"
"Well, I figured I'd get rid of all the phones, put a do not disturb sign on the door and see what happens."
"Sounds like a good plan to me. What do you think would happen?"
"Well, there would probably be an earthquake or some other kind of natural disaster to keep us apart."
"Yeah, we'd both get struck by lightning just as we were about to kiss."
"That or the building would blow up."
"I feel like we're stuck in some real bad romantic comedy. KSI: Kissing Scene Interruptions."
"CSI: Can Scientists Indulge."
"That was a good one."
"They kinda sound like cheap porno names though."
"What do you know about porn names?"
"I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you."
"Have you ever made your own dirty movie?"
"Why? You want to watch it?"
"You have one?"
"No. Have you ever...?"
"No. I have a hard enough time getting a date. You think I could talk someone into doing that?"
"I can't believe that you have a hard time getting dates."
"I do."
"With all the women at work who practically drool every time you walk by?"
"Now you're exaggerating...You don't drool when I walk by."
"I used to but you never noticed so I learned to control myself."
"So, you think some of the women at work would go out with me? I just might have to ask a few of them to dinner."
"If you did that I'd never forgive you."
"There's only one woman at work that I want to go out with. As a matter of fact, I thought there was only one woman at work. I never notice any other women there."
"And he tries to lay another sweet line on me."
"Did it work?"
"Of course it worked but you don't need to try. You've already won me over."
"You got it bad for me, huh?"
"Just as bad as you have it for me."
"You got it pretty bad then. I can't get you out of my head for a second. It gets kinda distracting at work."
"You want to talk about distractions at work Mr. Personal Space Invader."
"You're calling me a personal space invader? I have a difficult time moving at the lab and at crime scenes because you're always right there beside me."
"I think you're the one who's always right there beside me. Like a moth to a flame."
"Ooh! A bug metaphor. You're just talking your way deeper and deeper into my heart."
"I thought you'd like that."
TBC...
And if it was horrible it is because I am sleep deprived. And for the corny Arizona discussion.I actually had that conversation with someone once.
