Chapter 14
Never breaking away from each other, Grissom backed her down the hallway and leaned into her against his bedroom door, running his hands slowly down her sides to her hips. Sara released his hair to reach behind her and opened his door. They stumbled back and he kicked the door shut while she started to unbutton his shirt. Breaking the kiss briefly they locked eyes as she pushed the shirt over his shoulders and let it drop to the floor. Her eyes followed her hands as she glided them down his chest causing him to shiver at the tenderness of her touch. Squeezing her hips, he pulled them towards him, pressing into her making her moan softly as she kissed him lightly.
Moving further into the room he began working on the buttons of her top trailing the exposed skin with his tongue as the fabric floated to the floor. His mouth sucked on her collarbone while her hands unbuckled his belt and pants. Slowly lowering the zipper she slipped her hand into his pants and smiled as he groaned and thrust gently into her hand.
Lowering his mouth he licked through her bra and repeated with the other as she whimpered. Reaching the clasp he pulled the bra from her and tossed it aside as he took a breast into his mouth. He sat on the bed and pulled her to him never taking her breast from his mouth. Sara's hands tangled in his hair tightly, holding him to her.
Pulling her pants and underwear off he laced kisses over her stomach to her navel and lower. Pushing him back onto the mattress, she climbed on top of him, straddling his thighs. Looking down at his blues gazing back at her, she continued her explorations. Tugging his pants off with his boxers she grasped him and smiled widely at his long intake of air. His eyes closed at the warmth surrounding him and he moaned loudly as she moved up to his waist and captured her mouth with his as she leaned over him.
Teasing his mouth with her tongue made her giggle as he whimpered lightly and his eyes squeezed shut as she moved on him slowly. He held her hips as he moved under her and both gasped when he entered her. Sara fell forward and lay against his chest as she pushed back on him.
He gently thrust into her, not wanting to hurt her. He found her hands and entwined his fingers with hers. She tightened around them and let out a soft moan as she pushed back on him again, increasing tempo gradually. Lifting herself to speed up the pace she leaned against his hands to steady her.
Grissom's head lifted and fell back at the overwhelming sensations she was causing. "Oh God Sara." He gave a sort gasp of a warning that he was close. She leaned for to his ear and pulled it into her mouth, sucking on it endlessly. "Mmmm." He moaned loudly and flipped them.
She released his hands and gripped his shoulders digging her nails into his skin. Groaning into her hair he kept his pace. Thrusting into her almost agonisingly as he tried to hold on for her. His arms were weakening and she cried his name with her release, it mixed with his own cry as he collapsed on her breathing rapidly.
Slowly pulling from her, he tried to lift himself, but found he had no strength left. Sara stopped him trying and held him to her as she kissed his temple and nuzzled his curls.

8am sun shone through the window as Warrick knocked and walked into Grissom's room. "Hey Griss you got." He trailed off when he saw the two curled around each other. "Never mind." He laughed and shut the door after him.
Sara snuggled closer to his chest as he pulled the covers further around them. She shivered lightly and wrapped her arm around his waist pulling herself into his warmth. Grissom kissed her hair and pushed his hand further up her back to rest between her shoulder blades. "We've got not heating at moment."
Giggling she countered. "I figured, but I have you." He smiled and pressed his body against hers to share his body heat. "Hmmm.Nice."
Warrick knocked on the door again and waited. "Yeah?" Grissom asked.
"Coffee's ready, but I gotta go. I'll meet you there. Bye Sara." Warrick's muffled voice drifted to the couple.
"Bye Warrick." Sara called. She turned her head to look up at Grissom. "You going somewhere?"
He nodded and placed a kiss on her nose. "I got to get the field ready for tomorrows game. You can come, although it won't be very exciting."
Smiling she shook her head. "I'll see you tonight then. I need to ring Mum and see when she's coming home and I need to start working on my paper."
"Oh right the anatomy one." He said remembering.
Nodding she brushed her lips with his. "Can I have your paper?" She asked sweetly.
Playfully pinning her under him, he chuckled. "So that's your plan. Sleep with the sophomore and pinch his anatomy paper."
Laughing and trying helplessly to get free she shook her head frantically. "Was not. I learnt more about your anatomy last night than I could from any paper." She teased.
He laughed and captured her mouth, kissing her deeply.

Late afternoon Sara was on the phone with her mum while she was writing notes for her paper. "No, mum of course I nag him." She stressed. "I check with him every morning." Flipping through Grissom's paper she smiled at his neat handwriting. "Sorry mum, didn't catch that." Looking at the library book she turned to the index. "Yes, I am listening, just a bit distracted." Sara laughed. "Mum no, there is no bloke here. I'm working on my paper." Grinning widely and waving at Nick as he walked through the front door. "Yes, I'll tell him again." She pointed at her glass and mouthed 'Coke please'. Nick nodded with a smile and went into the kitchen. Coming back out he caught the end of the conversation. "No he's not here, oh that was me. No one was at the door mum. " Sara rolled her eyes and sighed. "Ok, bye."
"What's got her so stressed?" Nick asked passing her a coke can.
Sara jotted down a note from the anatomy library book and looked up at him grinning. "You."
His eyebrows furrowed. "Me? Why? What'd I do?" He asked confused.
"You need to go doctors tomorrow, she said she booked an appointment a month ago and I gotta make sure you go." She opened her can and poured it into the glass.
Sighing tiredly. "I don't won't to go."
Drinking some of the coke she nodded. "I know, but I'll be with you. I gotta see my doctor too."
"Why what's wrong?" Nick panicked.
She held up her hand and shook her head. "Nothing, just need to ask a few questions that's all." Not completely the truth, but near enough to stop him worrying. She changed the subject when his shoulders relaxed. "You have fun last night? I couldn't find you anywhere."
Grinning. "Oh yeah. Police came by and I got questioned. Catherine's parent's weren't too happy though."
"I bet." She turned back to her work.
Nick watched her closely as she wrote down her notes and searched through the books and past papers. He cocked his head to one side and smiled. She was happy and that smile was sure to stay. He leaned forward and kissed her cheek. She looked up at him questioningly and he shrugged. "I'm happy to see you happy." He stood from his perch on the table and went up stairs. Sara looked down at the papers and books stern across the table and grinned, she felt great was the only way to describe her at the moment. Picking up her pencil she turned to a fresh lined page in her note pad and continued to write her notes and draft sentences.
Chapter 15
Nightfall was in its 4th hour. Closing to 10pm Sara was sat reading in the dining room. She finished her paper an hour ago and her books and papers were stacked neatly in the middle of the table.
A strange noise came from the living room and she went to investigate. "Nicky?" She called, but got no reply. Rounding the corner she gasped. Running to kneel down on the floor she pushed the coffee table and couch back. "Hey Nicky, it's ok, you're having another seizure." She tilted his head back and his body continued to shake. "Hold in they Nicky, it'll be over in a minute." Knocking at the door caught her attention and shouted to them. "Who is it?"
"Gil." Sara looked down at Nick and waited for a few seconds util he stopped fitting. "Sara, everything alright?"
"Yeah. Come in, but be quiet." She called.
Grissom opened the door and saw Nick on the floor in the middle of the living room. He closed the door and knelt next to Sara. "Is he alright?" He checked Nick's pulse.
Sara watched him and smiled. "Yes he is and you're very calm for someone who's just walked in on a seizure Gil."
He turned to her and took her hand. "I've seen them before and not much shocks me anymore." He admitted.
"Well, he'll sleep for a while. I'm not going to move him, although when he wakes I'm going to kick his ass for not taking his pills." Sara lifted Nick's head and put a cushion under him. Pulling the blanket off the couch she draped it over him. "You move I kill you." She warned.
Grissom chuckled and pulled her to her feet. "Well, hi honey and how was your evening?" He asked grinning.
Wrapping her arms around him for a hug she whispered. "Too eventful." She led him to the kitchen and sat where she could see Nick through the door. "I remind him and he doesn't listen. I don't get it."
"Does he have seizure often?" Grissom asked sitting next to her.
She shook her head. "Not often, but sometimes he forgets every other weekend. He's out of the house most the time and he refuses to take them with him."
Taking her hands in his, he locked eyes with her. "He's too scared to admit he has a problem. An illness that can only be controlled by drugs. He's obviously not willing to let it take over his life." Grissom tried to explain.
Leaning forward to rest her head against his she sighed. "I suppose. He was diagnosed last year and I don't think it's sunk in yet." Grissom stood and pulled her to him lightly. Sara pushed her head between his shoulder and neck as she slipped her arms around to his back. "You realise what you called me?"
Grissom ran his hands up to her shoulders and down to her waist. Grinning he nodded. "Sorry, slip."
"Nope, I liked it." She said stepping back.
He kissed her softy. "So, honey what were you doing before the night got interesting?" He asked looking at Nick who was starting to stir.
"Reading." Sara pulled from his arms and got a bottle of water from the fridge and a pill bottle from the cupboard. "Be right back." She grinned evilly and walked into the living. Kneeling next to Nick who was sitting up now, she handed him the bottles and said sternly. "Take them and I don't want to see you miss a course again, you hear me Nicolas Stokes?"
Nick took the pills and nodded. "Sorry."
She hugged him and kissed his forehead. "Please don't let it happen again. It scared me too you know?"
He nodded and took another drink of water. "I'm gonna go bed." He said struggling to his feet.
"Hold up." Grissom lifted him to stand and helped him up the stairs. Sara pulled back the covers and Grissom laid him down. She pulled the covers over him and left him to sleep.
Stepping out into the hallway Sara grabbed hold of Grissom's jacket and pulled him tightly to her. "God he scared me so much." She said with tears falling down her cheeks.
"Shhh.It's ok now. He's fine." He brushed her hair back and placed a kiss on her neck. "I'm here."
Sara clutched his jacket and kissed his cheek. "You want to stay? It's getting late."
Looking into her eyes he smiled. "I would love to, but." Stopping to run his hand down her neck, he sighed. "I've got to go. I came to see you." He kissed her chin. "To make sure you hadn't forgotten about me." He chuckled against her mouth.
"Never." She assured kissing him deeply.
He pulled back and walked down the stairs. He turned around at the front door and waved. "I'll see you tomorrow at college." She nodded and waved down to him. He closed the door after him and headed out to his car. Getting in and starting the engine he looked up at the house and sighed. He really wanted to stay, but he had a game tomorrow and he promised Warrick they'd get there early.

Nick was sitting on the bench cheering on his team. Grissom was up to bat next and Sara, Greg, Catherine, Libby and Nicola were standing on the bleachers cheering him on. Grissom stood in the box and looked up at Sara and smiled. He swung the bat a few times then belted the ball high out to mid field. He ran the bases and slid to third. Waiting for his chance to run forth he rubbed his thigh and grimaced. Sara saw and smiled.
Greg looked at Sara and nudged her. "He alright?"
She nodded and looked back at the game. Running the final base he went over to the dugout and sat down. "I'm gonna go see him." She said standing.
"Ok." Greg shouted to her as she walked down the steps.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Approaching him as he leaned against the back of the dugout, she smiled. "Hey Gil." A voice shouted as she ran up to him and kissed him. Sara stopped and watched as he placed his hands on the woman's hips, but he didn't seem to push her away.
Not really knowing what to feel as a jumble of emotions coursed through her, she turned and walked back to the bleachers.
Never breaking away from each other, Grissom backed her down the hallway and leaned into her against his bedroom door, running his hands slowly down her sides to her hips.
