"Grissom's meditating over you're gun…didn't even look up when I passed him."
"Excuse me."
Sara pushed past Catherine, annoyance on her face. Clearly, she had been left out of the loop, though rarely anyone ever knew what Grissom was up to when he worked on something.
'I certainly knew what he was up to last night…' Catherine thought, a faint smile appearing on her lips. Images of Grissom clad in a leather jacket, tying bows onto colorfully wrapped birthday presents played through her mind.
She could still smell his cologne on her shirt. A mixture of Old Spice and the scent of her own strawberry body wash mingling in the air. Passing the lab room on her way out, she heard Sara's "You could have waited for me." fade out of earshot.
'Grissom never seemed to wait for anyone,' Catherine thought… but he'd waited for her. He'd waited 15 long years, for her.
