Saturday morning, just before sunrise, Nick and Sara stood on the shoreline
of Lake Mead with their families and friends. As the sun broke over the
horizon, they spoke their vows of commitment. It truly was a simple
ceremony. Sara wore a simple white dress. Certainly not what many would
consider a wedding dress, but beautiful nevertheless. Nick was attired in
a pair of khaki chinos and a white collarless shirt. Sara's bouquet was
made up of white roses and baby's breath. As the ceremony concluded, and
they were pronounced husband and wife, Nick grinned as he leaned in to kiss
his wife. He felt Sara smile and they both dissolved into laughter as they
hung onto each other.
"I'm going to throw the bouquet!" Sara shouted, grinning at Nick.
A bevy of Nick's nieces, Catherine, Arika, and Lindsey gathered round for the toss. Sara winked at Nick as she threw the bouquet directly at Catherine, who wasn't trying to catch it, but was merely trying to get out of the way of all the little girls diving for it.
A big smiled crossed Catherine's face. "What about a garter toss, Nick?" Catherine called out.
Nick waggled his eyebrows and pulled the hem of Sara's dress up to reveal a garter on her thigh. He slowly pulled it off and a group of his nephews, Grissom, Brass, Warrick, and Greg gathered around. Nick winked at Sara and glanced over his shoulder as he shot the garter into the crowd directly at Grissom. Grissom looked a bit flustered as he caught it.
Some of Nick's nieces ran over to Grissom and started pulling him toward Catherine, "You have to kiss her, it's tradition."
Grissom looked a bit bemused, and Catherine looked over at Nick and Sara who just grinned.
As Grissom approached Catherine he raised an eyebrow, "It's tradition." Catherine crossed her arms in front of her body and gave him an 'I dare you' expression. Grissom smirked, "Besides, I wanted to ask you on a date anyway." A slightly astonished but please expression crossed Catherine's face as Grissom leaned in to kiss her. Catherine slid her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. Grissom slid his arms around her waist and pulled her close.
"You go, Grissom!" Greg yelled his arm around Arika.
"Bout time," Warrick commented with an amused expression on his face. Brass just chuckled.
Nick whispered to Sara, "They've got the right idea." He smiled and then pulled his wife in for a kiss.
"Uncle Nick! Auntie Sara!" Nick's nieces and nephews chanted.
Nick smiled into the kiss and started laughing, causing Sara to start laughing again. He whispered to her amid the din, "I can't wait until we get on our honeymoon where we can be alone."
Sara winked at him and gave him a sexy grin, "Me too."
The rest of the morning was spent eating and dancing on the shores of Lake Mead until it was time for Nick and Sara to leave on their honeymoon.

A/N: Sorry, the story had to end sometime. So what did you think? I enjoyed your feedback. The most appreciated comments were those that were specific in nature. Although, to those who made comments such as "cool, rad, loved it, etc." Thanks.
Check out my other stories. I really like Nick and Sara together. If you watch the first season (I have it on DVD as well as all the other episodes from the other two season on tape) you'll notice that Nick and Sara flirted shamelessly, and it wasn't all about Grissom/Sara angst. Grissom and Catherine were much more chummy first season also, and Grissom actually handed out several personal compliments to Catherine that in my eyes are much more significant given the length of time they've known each other than any comments Grissom made to Sara. Although, we'll have to wait to see what the writers come up with for the season premiere of Season 4.
