Chapter 15
"oooh... Sara! Look at this one!" Catherine squealed in delight as she browed through the wedding gowns in the bridal shop.
"Catherine... please remember I'm getting married, not you... what color of dress do you want?" Sara looked through the dresses.
"well what colors are you going to have?" Catherine looked around the aisles of dresses. "I SO wanna get married now..." She chuckled.
"CG?" Sara smirked.
"CG??" Catherine raised an eyebrow. "Sara... It's not going to happen.."
"Uh huh... So I was thinking ivory and a light purple?" Sara smiled
"That sounds beautiful..." Catherine glanced around the aisles, pausing when she thought she saw a familiar face. *Could it be?* She thought to herself, hoping it wasn't him. "Chad?" She said to herself, barely above a whisper.
"Pardon?" Sara turned round holding two dresses for Catherine.
Catherine shook herself, silently berating herself. "huh? Nothing... Just thinking aloud.."
"Ok. So you think Lynsey would like to be a flowergirl?"
"Yea... I know She'd love too..." Catherine grinned, pushing away the dark thought that Chad could be lurking around.
"Can I help you?" Asked the assistant.
"She wants to try these ones." Sara smiled at Catherine.
Catherine gave Sara a look and silently took the two dressed Sara had held out for her.
Sara followed Catherine into the fitting rooms and smiled at her ring.
Catherine tried on the first dress and stepped outside of the fitting room. "Sar... what do ya think?" She turned around, modeling the dress for the soon-to-be bride
Sara frowned, "Yeah it's nice," She burst out laughing, "For granny Catherine..."
"Shut up..." Catherine chuckled. "I'll try on the other one..." She retreated back inside the fitting room and tried on her second dress. She straightened it out and stepped outside.
Sara was still laughing when Cath came back out but stopped when she saw the second dress, "WOW! You look... wow!"
Catherine grinned, blushing a little. "I wonder if Gil will like it..." She said to herself, not realizing she said it out loud. ""oops... uh.. I mean.."
"I knew it!" Sara jumped up, "I so knew it, you are majorly busted!"
"ok.. ok.. you got me. It's been like this for the longest time, but I haven't told him and even if i did, it's wouldn't change the ways things are between us..."
"Why? I mean I thought about Nick and I. And now we have a baby and a wedding..." Sara commented.
"He's too consumed with work and bugs. He hasn't lifted his head out of the microscope long enough to see me standing in front of him practically shouting that I'm interested in him..." Catherine smirked.
"you and Nick are definately lucky... I mean with everything you've been through..." Catherine trailed over, looking past Sara, thinking she spotted Chad by the Tux's. She frowned, shakingher head a little, hoping she was wrong
"I'm sure that dress'll do it!" Sara smiled and turned Catherine round so she could lookin the full-length mirror. "And I'm sure Grissom notices, he's just afraid to do anything about it..."
"Well I wish he would just give me some kind of hint..." Catherine smiled
"You never know..." Sara smiled, "White roses and silver curled sticks..."
Catherine shook herself out of her little daydream. "Huh? What was that?" She smiled sheepishly. "Sorry... I was kinda in my own little world.."
"Ohh Flowers, my flowers... That'll I'll cary, when I walk down the aisle... to get married, to Nick..." Sara said in a daze
"I think that'll be wonderful... have you decided where to get them? I heard Sonny's Flowers was a good place to go..."
"Ok, I... umm, shall we go there then?" Sara stuttered.
"Sure...." Catherine looked at her. "What about this dress... you want me to tell the cashier to hold it for me?"
"Yeah! Thats such a lovely dress... Griss will like it!!" Sara grinned and walked to the cashier.
Catherine walked behind her and told asked the cashier to hold it for them. "ok.. on to the flower shop!" Catherine announced looping her arm with Sara's
Sara giggled and the two walked towards the small flower shop and Sara grinned thinking about Nick and Andy.
"Here we are!!" Catherine walked into the shop with Sara and walked to the counter. "Hi... She's looking for some wedding flowers... I think it was white roses... and do you have any of those silver curly sticks?" Catherine asked, grinning back at Sara.
*****
Nick walked into the small tailor's shop and walked up to the counter. "Hi... I called here yesterday about 4 tuxedos?"
Grissom stood looking at the ties and bowties. He raised his eyebrow at the multi-colored one... "Interesting."
The clerk looked down at his order form. "Ah.. yes. Well... there's a slight problem... There was a mix-up in the packages... and it'll take about another 10 days for them to be in..."
Grissom looked at Nick, "Sara is not gonna be a happy chappy.."
Nick frowned and sighed. He looked over at Grissom. "I can't wait another 10 days..." He turned back to the clerk. "Is there anything else you can do?"
The clerk looked up at him again. "You could try on a few tuxedos here... io'm sure we have some here with your required sizes..."
Nick nodded. "ok let's have them..." He watched the clerk disappear into the backroom, and turned back to Grissom. "This is not good...."
"Well, what other choice do we have?" Grissom asked Nick.
"None really...."
"Well I guess, do I have to say a speech?" Grissom asked Nick.
"If ya want... I mean, I know you're not too good at public speaking so I won't hold you to it..." Nick smirked
"You've been hanging around Catherine too much. I am good at speaking, I just don't like it..."
The clerk walked back out with a handful of Tuxs that had never been purchased, and it was obvious why. In his hand he held a powder blue one, with ruffles and bell-bottom legs. Another was a white one with bell-bottoms. But the last two were worse. One was light orange, and the other was a soft purple.
Nick's jaw dropped and his eye's widened. "Maybe they'd be fine for Greg... but not for me!" Nick whispered loudly to grissom.
"Maybe we should try somewhere else?" Gil whispered back.
"I agree..." Nick nodded and turned back to the clerk. "Thanks for your help, but we're going to check out a few more stores..." he said politely before turning on his heel and leaving.
"How about across there." Grissom pointed over to a small suit shop across the road.
"alright... let's go check it out..." Nick said hopefully.
"So about this speech, does it need to be funny?"Grissom asked as they walked into the shop.
"no... not really... Griss, just say whatever you feel like you want to say. as long as it don't center around bugs..." He smirked
"Hi there gentlemen, can I help you?" Asked the woman behind the counter. She was slim and pretty, she also broke out in a grin as soon as Nick smiled.
"yes actually you can... I'm looking for 4 tuxedos..." Nick said smiling at the woman. "For my wedding..." he added.
The girls smile dropped slightly, "Ohh, well we have a vast selection, umm, what color?"
"black preferably... "
"Ok, umm, tie?"
"bow-tie... i think... um... color? well I'm not sure... Black? you know, you standard traditional tux"
"Right, follow me please..." The girl walked upstairs and produced two suits.
"Wow I'm gonna be James Bond..." Grissom said sarcastically.
The girl stood and huffed. "Well would you like to try them?"
"yes please..." Nick replied as politely as he could.
"There's one fitting room up here, the others down stairs." She smiled at Nick
"Thank-you... Grissom, I'll go in the one up here... ok?" Nick said
Grissom nodded and headed downstairs, he noticed the girl stayed upstairs. "I hope SARA will like these..."
The girl frowned at Grissom, "If you need anything give me a shout sir." She turned to Nick, "That goes for you too." She smiled knowing the pants were way to big for Nick.
Nick walked into the dressing room and tried on the tux. He frown at his appearance in the mirror and stepped out of the fitting room holding his pants up by the waist band. "Umm... Miss, I think I need another pair of pants a few sizes smaller..."
She grinned, "Ofcourse, I think I'll need to measure you!," The girl tokk Nick's waist measurment and grinned, "I know just the pair..." She came back with a pair and handed them to Nick with a wink, "Try these..."
Grissom climbed back up the stairs, "Well Nicky, These fit perfectly!" He smiled in the mirror. "I wonder if she..." Grissom started to mummble.
Nick forced a smile and took the pants then retreated back into the safety of the fitting rooms, rolling his eyes. He chuckled to himself and tried on the other pair of pants and walked back out. "You look good Griss..."
"I know that Nick." He responed in a very Grissom tone.
Nick smirked at him. "Well I think this suit fits fine... And i have Warrick and Greg's sizes here... So we'll take these?"
"Yes Sir... I'll go ring them up..." She grinned again and walked down the stairs.
"I'm off to change..." Grissom looked at Nick and walked back to the fitting room.
*****
Sara looked at her watch, "I hope Andy is ok..."
She looked over at Cath, "You think I should call home?"
"I'm sure Andy is fine... besides we'll be headed home soon enough... we just have a few more stores left to hit." Catherine smirked
Sara nodded and followed, "Hey is that Nick and GRissom?" She pointed into a small store acroiss the street from where they stood.
"it looks like them... they probably just got their tuxs.."
"Can we go see them?" Sara grinned, "I know Griss would LOVE to see you!"
Catherine chuckled. "c'mon..." She crossed the street and headed over to the guys. "Hey... what's up?"
"Catherine! Umm Sara, hi how are you?" Grissom smiled hoping no one noticed his change in tone.
Nick walked over to Sara and tried to peek into the bag she was carrying. "So hun, what do you have in there?"
"Nothing for you." She kissed him almost knocking him over, "whatcha buy?"
"our suits for the wedding. The first store lost our order or something... so we went across the street and picke up some new ones..."
"Ohh..." She smiled hugging Nick.
Grissom rolled his eyes. "So did you get a dress Catherine?"
Catherine grinned. "Yes I did actually..."
"Good. So where are you ladies off to now?" He grinned.
"oh you know... random stores here and there... and don't forget that you guys have to buy the corsages..." Catherine smiled
"And where would we get corsages?" Grissom smiled sheepishly.
"In a shop." Sara smiled. Sara kissed Nick again and tried to look in his bag, they looked like two love sick teenagers.
"Nick let me see!"
"Sara... you won't let me see your dress, so you aren't seeing the tux..." Nick laughed
Sara huffed, "I'll see it later!" She whispered to Nick, "Cath is a go... C likes G...."
Nick nodded. "ok... now to find out if G likes C... it's gonna be tough..." he whispered back
"You can do it..." She smiled. "Hey we still have some shops to go to..." She kissed Nick again.
Nick kissed her back. "ok... we'll see-ya back at the house in an hour?"
Sara nodded and walked away with Catherine smiling.
Grissom coughed, "Come on lover-boy, lets go."
Nick gave Grissom a look. "ok.. let's hit the flower shop first..."
Grissom turned back to see the two women walk away. "Nick, it's in here." He pointed to the flower store.
Nick walked inside and headed for the counter. "Hi.. do you sell corsages?"
"yes... we do... what kind of flower and what color?" The clerk asked, looking down at his watch.
"umm... Griss, what color is Cath's dress supposed to be again...?"
Grissom looked to Nick. "it's ummm, I have no idea..." He looked dumb founded.
"oh... lavender!... Right." he turned back to the clerk. "We need a lavender color... maybe a lilac flower?"
"just a minute..." The clerk turned around and dug around the back and walked back out. "How many to you need?"
"Four?" Grissom estimated
"ummm...yea... that's right." Nick nodded turning back to the clerk.
"ok... Here's what we have..." The man walked back out and laid the flowers on the counter top
Grissom looked at Nick, "Excuse me, this is for a wedding, his wedding... do you have any nice ones?"
The man looked a bit miffed. "If you want nicer ones.... why don't you go pick some yourself!"
"This is all we have at the moment..." he looked down at hte half-dead flowers
Grissom looked to Nick, "Well..."
"You have to have some other flowers that aren't on life support..." Nick looked at the man.
Grissom smiled at Nick's colorful wording.
"Looks Buddy.. "The man leered over the counter. "You can eitherTake 'em or leave 'em..."
Nick half-glared at the man. "Forget it... we'll be taking our business elsewhere..." Nick turned on his heel and left the store. "so, where to? a flower garden?"
"Umm, what if we call Catherine and Sara?" Grissom suggested
"alright... they'd probably have better luck..." Nick agreed. "you wanna call her?"
Grissom smiled. "Ok." He dialed Cath's number.
"Hello?" Catherine answered her cell
"Hi Catherine it's me, Grissom. The flower place was a bust, any chance you guys can help out?"
"did you guys check out Sonny's Flowers? If you hurry, you might get there before close... and if not... um, call back and we'll meet up somewhere"
Grissom forwned, "Nick what was the name of the flower shop?"
"uh, Petal something..." Nick looked over at grissom. "Why?"
Grissom turned back to his cell phone "Ok, we'll call you later." He turned to Nick, "Sonny's flowers."
"ok.. let's go..." Nick shook his head and started off.
