Chapter 6
Grissom stands there completely unable to move, still trying to process what she said. Sara walked up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist. She leaned her chin on his shoulder, letting out a short sigh. "I guess it's time to send them home." Grissom nodded absently still looking out the door.
Sara slowly turned her head into his neck and kissed him. Grissom closed his eyes and covered her hands with his, holding them close as she teasingly ran her tongue from his neck to his ear. "We should try and salvage the team before war breaks out." He said in a long exhale of air and breathed in just as quick when she grasped one side of his pants and turned him to face her.
"Whose WE?" She asked raising her eyebrows as she awaited his reply.
Grissom grinned. "Well, you know how I get with the others, I'll just make it worse. With you there, then maybe I won't say something wrong and you can step in and help." He stepped back pulling on her hand.
Sara shook her head. "Oh-no, I can't help, you said yourself that I make you speechless when in the same room, so your on your own buddy. Once you've sank the ship, maybe and just maybe I'll help, but not until then."
"Sara, P-L-E-A-S-E" Grissom tugged on her hand again and she laughed at his begging, but still did not give in.
"Nope, you're the supervisor, you deal with it." Grissom's shoulders slumped and let her hand go.
"It's not fair." He muttered slowly walking out the door.
*******************************
Grissom sat in his office with his tarantula sitting on his palm. The only light in the room was the lamp on his desk emanating a blue/green glow. Sara approached the office, but didn't enter. She remained a good foot back, keeping distance between her and the large hairy spider. Grissom smiled before he raised his head, knowing she was staring at 'Chuck'. "He won't hurt you Sara." He said still keeping his eyes on the spider.
"I.um.have the report for a bombing." She stammered holding the file up slightly.
Grissom looked up with a straight face. "Put it on my desk and I'll read it." He suggested.
She slowly shook her head and took a step back. "Nope, it's alright.You.can read later. I'll be in the break room." She turned on her heel and walked away.
Grissom's grin returned as he looked from Sara's retreating form to 'Chuck' who was now crawling up his arm. "She's just nervous. I'll get her to hold you before the end of the week." He promised as he carefully placed him back in his home.
*******************************
"Shouldn't you be working Sara?" Catherine asked as she filled her coffee cup.
Sara looked up from the file. "I am and once the boss has stopped playing with his buddy's, so will he."
Catherine smiled and nodded knowingly. "I'm not too keen on spiders either, but whatever makes him happy, I can live with it." Sara shook her head as Catherine left the room.
"Bye Cath." Grissom said strolling into the break room. Sara kept her head down as he sat next to her on the couch. "We do seem to be bumping into each other don't we?" Sara smiled and leaned against him as she kept reading. Grissom put his arm around her and dropped a kiss on her neck. "You find anything interesting in there?" She shook her head and yelped when Grissom poked a rib.
She turned her head to him in mock shock. "What was that for?" He smirked and lowered his chin to her shoulder, trying to read the file, but was having trouble without his glasses. He checked his shirt pocket, but they weren't there. He was about to move when Sara tapped them on the file. "Looking for these?"
"Mhmmm.I wonder where I left them this time." He said grasping her hand and kissing it before taking his glasses from her. "Thank you." He put them on and started to read the file.
*******************************
"It's been over an hour and we've seen no one." Sara said looking towards the break room door.
The lab had been quiet since Catherine left and that was never a good sign. Grissom just nodded as he picked up his crossword book from the arm of the couch. He'd been trying to do this crossword for half an hour and was getting no where. "They've probably gone to get something to eat." He suggested tapping his pencil on his lower lip.
Sara turned her head and smiled. "Which one?" She asked as she pulled the crossword over her shoulder so they could both see.
Grissom tried to pull it back. "No, I'm fine. I'll get it in a minute."
"I bet. You've been looking at the same one for ten minutes now Griss, let me help." She snatched the pencil from his hand and inspected the puzzle. "Hmmm.well." She filled in one and looked at another one.
Grissom watched intently as she filled in two more. His mouth dropped when she filled in another two after those. He quickly snatched the puzzle back before she completed it. She giggled at his reaction and turned her whole body to face him. She was now lying against his chest, gazing into his eyes. Grissom shifted as her body pressed into him.
They had been in this situation a few times before, but not at work. They had been taking the past few weeks slowly, not wanting to rush into things, but now and then they would be a position neither were sure what to do, but on this occasion Grissom made the first move.
"We need to talk about this." He smiled against her lips and kissed her slowly.
