Chapter 20

* ~ Nick and Sara a few hours later ~ *

Nick woke up with a warm body in his arms. He smiled as he remembered his and Sara's activities a few hours before. She was so beautiful, and he loved her with all his heart. He turned his head to face her, she was still asleep. She's so cute when she sleeps. He began to outline her face with his fingers lightly. Her eyes fluttered open and smiled immediately when she saw him. "Sorry I woke you" he whispered.

"It's OK real life is better than dreams." She whispered back snuggling closer to him.

"Oh, so you were dreaming about me huh?" Nick said in mock accusation.

"Oh yeah, and it was hot!" She replied in a husky tone.

"Just the way you like it huh?" He tickled her sides lightly. She started to giggle.

"You know me so well Nicky!" She said as she leaned in to kiss him. He readily complied and pulled her on top of him and deepened the kiss, just as the phone rang. "Uhh you've got to be kidding me!" She picked up the phone. "Hello? :pause: Yea, we know that Grissom. :pause: We'll be in for shift don't worry. OK bye." She groaned and hung up the phone.

"What did he want?" Nick asked a little annoyed.

"He just wanted to remind us that we had to work tonight. He so weird. And that's not all. I heard some muffled giggles in the back ground, and he sounded like he was trying not to scream or yell or something." Sara shook her head in confusion.

"Do you think there is something going on between him and Catherine?"

"Oh yeah! Now let's get ready for work. Shower?" She asked.

"If we must!" Nick laughed and lead Sara to the bathroom, where they became one once again.

* ~ Grissom and Catherine ~ *

"That wasn't very nice Ms. Willows." Grissom said pointing a finger at Catherine.

"What? It's not like I've never kissed you before!" She giggled as she straddled his lap in his desk chair in his office.

"True, but not at work, and I was on the phone with Sara! And you missy! Were making it very hard for me to concentrate!"

"I'm sorry, here let me make it up to you." She leaned in and kissed him gently.

"Only for another ten minutes, because that's when shift starts." He said between kisses. About 15 minutes later the rest of the team was in the breakroom ready for shift. Everything was back to normal…for now.
