Sorry I took so long. I had the last part in my head, but never really thought about how they would approach this part.
"One sugar?"
"Yeah"
"uhh, where do you keep your sugar"
"oh, in that cupboard by your head" Sara called out as she unloaded most of her shopping into the refrigerator. She was pleasantly surprised that Grissom knew how she liked her coffee, although she was mildly embarrassed that she had been so distracted about what she was going to say to him that she had failed to do all of this while she was in Starbucks.
Grissom handed her the now favorably altered coffee as she finished unloading her bag.
"Thanks"
"What else could I do when you were good enough to buy it in the first place"
Neither of them new what to say next and an uncomfortable silence ensued with both maintaining eye contact with their coffee cup. Sara was disappointed in herself as she had pulled off the confident approach at his car, but now that she had him in her domain she felt tongue tied. Time for that to change.
Sara lifted her head and made off in the direction of the couch.
"you coming over?"
"yeah, sorry" He chucked softly to himself.
"So…?"
"So…what?" He smiled up at her as they both knew that he was avoiding the question. He wasn't going to get away with it this time, and he knew it.
With a typical Sidle smile on her face Sara asked. "So…Why were you asleep outside my apartment."
"ahhh…I didn't mean to fall asleep, I guess the hours that we worked on the case got to me a little."
"what were you doing outside my apartment"
"sitting"
Sara always knew that he could be cryptic and enigmatic, so with a voice dripping with sugar sweet sarcasm "why?"
OK cruel place to end. I will update soon.
