Nick walked over to where Sara and Catherine were sitting. "Hey, Sara, do
you want to dance?"
Catherine smiled at Nick. She knew he had a thing for Sara, even if he
wouldn't quite admit it.
Sara smiled at Nick, "Uh, sure. I hope you wore steel-toed boots though, I'm not a very good dancer."
Nick chuckled, "I think I'll take my chances."
As they walked out on the dance floor, they joined Greg, Archie, and several other lab techs and interns who were dancing to driving techno pop.
Sara didn't think she was a good dancer, but Nick thought otherwise. He was mesmerized by her as they danced. As they danced, Sara laughed, and they both relaxed and became more comfortable with each other. They danced close to each other without touching and electricity seemed to surge between them without them really realizing it. Their bodies were inches apart, tantalizing each other. After several up tempo songs, a slow one came on, and Nick naturally put his hands on Sara's waist, pulling her close. She slid her hands up his chest, and as they touched, their eyes locked. The electricity that they hadn't noticed passing between them, hit them both like a jolt. Nick had a lopsided grin on his face as they danced. Sara had a bit of color creep into her face. She averted her gaze by snaking her arms around his neck and resting her head on his shoulder. What she had intended to avert her attention from him served to bring her closer to him. Their bodies were pressed up against each other and they were very conscious of each other breathing. Nick's arm unconsciously tightened around Sara's waist and her fingers began to play at the nape of his neck. They didn't seem to notice when the music changed. They simple continued to sway, lost in their own song as they danced slowly together.
The rest of the night shift crew wore grins on their faces as they watched Nick and Sara discover each other.
Catherine came over toward Warrick with a smile on her face and sat down at the table. "Did you know Sara forgot it was her birthday?"
Warrick chuckled, "Yeah, Nick told me."
"It was nice of you to throw her a party." Catherine commented.
Warrick smiled, "Yeah, well, it was as good a reason as any to give those two a reason to get together."
Catherine chuckled, "Matchmaking, eh?"
Warrick laughed. "Neither one of them was making a move."
Catherine raised an eyebrow at him, "So when are you going to make a move?"
Warrick raised a surprised eyebrow at a smiling Catherine, "Now's as good a time as any." He stood up and offered her his hand, "Would you like to dance?"
Catherine continued smiling, "I thought you'd never ask."
Sara smiled at Nick, "Uh, sure. I hope you wore steel-toed boots though, I'm not a very good dancer."
Nick chuckled, "I think I'll take my chances."
