The next night, Sara walked into Greg's lab. The young lab tech was standing at the counter, working with some DNA samples, all the while bobbing his head to whatever rock music he had playing in the background. Sara smiled, and reached over to shut off the music, knowing that it would scare the hell out of him.
Just as she suspected, as soon as the music was silenced, Greg whipped around, all ready to apologize to Grissom for even having the music on. However, as soon as he saw Sara's smiling face, he smiled right back at her. "Well, hello there Sara." He slid over to where she was standing. "What can I do you for you this wonderful evening?"
"First of all, Greg, it's practically five in the morning, so not it's not technically evening anymore. And second, I need you run these samples ASAP." Sara suddenly turned serious.
"Let me tell you something, you tell me who you're getting married to, and I'll put your samples before all the others." Greg waggled his eyebrows.
"Greg," Sara warned, "I told you I'm not telling anyone just yet. But I really need these samples. A college girl is sitting in a hospital room, hoping that we catch the son-of-a-bitch who raped her. Please?"
"Well, even if I put them before everything else, you still won't get the results until later on in the day, probably next shift at the earliest."
Sara sighed. "I know, I know. Just get the results to me as soon as they print out."
"You know I will, Sara. But what are you worried about? You can now go home and spend time with your hubby-to-be. Whoever the lucky guy is?"
"Nice try, Greggo, but I'm still not telling you." Sara smiled, in spite of the slight annoyance she felt. She was sick of everyone asking about her ring, or her fiancé.
"Okay, okay. I know when to give up." Greg reached over and put a hand on her shoulder. "But I just want to tell you, you look very happy. And that just does wonders for your beauty."
"I am happy Greg, I have never been so happy in my life."
Greg leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Then congratulations, Sara. You deserve to be this happy, and I'm so happy for you." He then walked over to the boom box, and turned his music on, although at a lower volume this time.
Sara stood there, slight taken aback at what Greg had just told her. "Hey Greg?" He looked at her over his shoulder, and Sara continued, "You know, you are the first person to say that you were happy for me, and well, I guess it really means a lot to me."
Greg shrugged, "Well, it's the truth."
Sara smiled and made a quick decision. "Let me make you a deal. You gather everyone, Catherine, Warrick, Nick, Grissom, Brass and yourself, into the break room fifteen minutes before tonight's shift, and I will bring my fiancé in for you all to meet." After returning Greg's beaming smile, she turned and walked out of the lab.
She walked down the hall to Grissom's office. Seeing the door open and the light on, she poked her head in the doorway. "Hey."
Looking up from whatever file he was reading, Grissom smiled at the sound of her voice. "Hey, what's up?"
She stepped inside the office and lowered her voice, "We're telling them tomorrow."
Grissom raised an eyebrow, "I thought you wanted to keep it a secret?"
"I did, until I realized the mistake of keeping a secret from people trained to get secrets out of people keeping them. Our co-workers are driving me nuts, so we're meeting fifteen minutes before shift tonight so I can introduce my fiancé." She winked at him and walked to the doorway. Tuning back around, "We'll decide how to break it to them later, at home." She then disappeared into the hallway.
