Ok, I know it is short, but I hope you like it. Thanks for the reviews, please keep them coming!
Sara woke from her sleep. She was anxious about the next day's plan. They were going to escape. Tomorrow.
What if it doesn't work, Sara? Emma had sensed that her fellow captive was awake.
It will, Emma. We are GOING to be free again. I promise you.
So, who is this Grissom guy you keep talking about in your sleep?
Sara blushed, but it went unnoticed because of the darkness. He's, uh..well. My supervisor at work.
Something in your tone tells me that he is more than that. Come on, fess up.
You know, I'm pretty tired. I think we should sleep. She smiled at her lame evasion. She'd told no one about her love for Grissom. Part of her really wanted to tell Emma.
Oh, come ON Sara!
Ok, ok! He isn't more than my supervisor. But that doesn't mean I wouldn't like him to be.
Does he know that you are MADLY in love with him? Emma couldn't help but tease her. Even though they'd met under some very bad circumstances and hadn't known each other long, she'd really felt a connection to Sara. It was like they were twin souls.
Hey! I didn't say I was in love with him. You shouldn't assume. There was a tone of humor in her tone. Despite the situation, Sara had been able to laugh. She couldn't believe it.
It's only as obvious as I am pregnant!
They both laughed and decided to go back to sleep. The next day held to much promise. They had to be ready for it.
Grissom sat at his desk, frowning. He knew time was running short. Every time the phone rang, he flinched. What if it were a call about a DB that turned out to be Sara? He wasn't sure if he could handle this. He went to go see how the others were progressing on finding her. He'd had little luck, but he was hoping it was just him.
Catharine was in the lab with Greg, who was analyzing the rag they'd found at Sara's.
It's chloroform. Let's see what makes it special so that you might be able to trace the purchase. Even Greg was working with a greater sense of urgency than usual.
When Grissom showed up, Catharine briefed him on the little she had to go by. She saw the sorrow in his eyes. Look Gris, I have more to go by than I expected. We are going to find her. Why don't you go see what Nick and Warrick have found?
He left without saying anything. He wasn't being rude, he was just distraught. Wishing for the best, he went in search of his other two CSIs.
Yo Gris! I think I might have something, man. Warrick piped. I've been tracking his credit cards. He placed a purchase today at a convenience store. I bet he is somewhere near that. Let's map it.
Nick walked in a few seconds later. We have a sighting!!! He exclaimed. He held a paper with the address.
Five minutes later, Grissom was out the door. He didn't care that shift had been long over. He was about to get her back. That was all that mattered.
tbc....
