Chapter 32
After shift, Grissom grabbed his jacket and keys and left his office. When he walked along the break room he saw Sara and Nick.
When Sara spotted Grissom outside the break room, she said goodbye to Nick and walked up to him. "Care for some breakfast?" she asked him.
"Sure." Grissom looked at her and smiled. "Where do you want to go?" He asked when they walked towards the exit.
"Hmm…There's a new diner on Freemont Street. Maybe we can check that one out." Sara opened the door of Grissom's SUV and got in.
"Ok," Grissom replied when he sat next to Sara. He started the engine and drove towards Freemont Street.
Ten minutes later they arrived at the diner. Sara stepped out of the car and waited for Grissom. Grissom closed the door and walked up to Sara.
After dinner, Grissom looked at Sara and smiled. "Have you bought anything for the baby already?"
"Not yet. Maybe you could go with me, if you like." Sara said a little unsure, but when she saw Grissom's face she almost melted. His eyes were twinkling, his smile grew every second. She never saw him like this before.
"I would love to," he whispered and took her hand in his.
Sara smiled shyly and squeezed his hand.
"Lets get out of here," Grissom said to her and raised his hand to the waiter. He walked up to their table and Grissom asked for the bill.
"I…" Sara protested but Grissom silenced her.
"I'll pay." That was al he said and after he paid, he grabbed Sara's hand and they walked out of the diner.
When they both sat in the car, Grissom turned to Sara.
"Uhm…We still have a couple of hours before the appointment…Would you like to go baby shopping?" He stammered a little bit.
He is cute when he is insecure. "I would love that," she responded and grasped his hand and squeezed it.
"Ok." He released her hand, started the engine, and drove towards the shopping center.
When they arrived at the shopping center, they quickly got out of the car and walked into the building. They easily found the store that they where looking for.
Grissom walked toward some stuffed animals. He smiled when he saw some animals in shapes of bugs.
Sara walked up to him and looked over his shoulder. I can't believe this. Bugs!! She started to grin.
Grissom turned around and bumped into her. "Sara!" He yelled and clutched his hand over his heart. "You almost gave me a heart-attack!"
"Sorry." She looked at him and smirked. "Bugs. Why am I not surprised?" She started to laugh. Grissom looked at her and started to laugh too.
"What did you expect?" He said smiling when he stopped laughing.
"Hmm…Good question, but no bugs." She stood next to him and looked at the stuffed animals.
"Why no bugs?" Grissom looked at her questionably.
"One Bugman is enough!" she said seriously and kissed him.
Grissom smirked and nodded. "Ok."
Sara grabbed another stuffed animals. "I always like this show," she smiled and thought about it.
Grissom looked at her. "Brings back memories huh."
"Yeah, it does. Do you remember all of the characters?" Sara looked at him and giggled.
"Let me think." After a short pause he continued. "There is Winnie the Pooh of course and Tigger, Eeyore. Hmm…Piglet." That where all the names he could remember.
"Hey, you forgot Kanga and Roo and of course Rabbit." Sara started to laugh again.
"So…You want to make a Winnie the Pooh room." He smiled at her.
"Yeah, I would like that." She turned towards Grissom and kissed him.
After they got everything it was almost 1 p.m. "Are you hungry?" Grissom gazed into Sara's eyes. They forgot everything around them. After a couple of minutes Grissom broke the gaze and smiled at her. "Hungry?" He asked again.
Sara's face flush. She nodded her head. "Yes, I'm hungry."
"Over there is a little diner, but first we need to get those things in the car." He pointed at the bags and the big box.
"Sir. Do you need some help?" one of the employees asked.
"Yeah. That would be great, thanks." The man and Grissom picked up de big box and carried it to Grissom's SUV. He opened the trunk and they both lifted the box into the car. "Thank you for helping me." Grissom shook the man's hand. "It's part of our service Sir," he told him and went back inside.
Sara placed the other bags in the car and shut it. They both went back into the shopping center and walked into the little diner they spotted earlier.
When they finished lunch it was 1.40 p.m. "We have to go now?" Sara said when she looked at her watch. Grissom nodded at waved for the waiter. "Now it's my turn," Sara paid for their lunch and they left the diner.
Ten minutes later, Grissom parked his SUV outside a large building. They both walked to the entrance.
Grissom grasped Sara's hand and hold it.
She had to smile. He is so cute. I really Love him, My god. I… Can we ever be together? Can I get past this…
Grissom noticed the change in behavior. He released her hand, but Sara grasped his hand and held it tightly and smiled up to him.
He relaxed a little and smiled back.
When they reached the doctor's office, Grissom sat down in one of the chairs in the waiting room, while Sara walked up to the desk to say that she was here. The nurse told her that the doctor would come soon. Sara nodded and walked towards Grissom and sat next to him.
