CHAPTER 1
The rental van traveled down the long dirt road, mountains on one side, the ocean on another. Grissom driving, Catherine in the front passenger seat, Sara and Greg in the middle bench seat, Warrick and Nick in the back. Warrick and Nick were watching a football game on their portable TV, Sara was sleeping and Greg was staring out the window. Grissom and Catherine having a quiet talk.
"C'mon..C'mon! Score already! What are you waiting for!!" Nick was yelling at the TV.
"I'v seen this game. He's going to miss." Warrick said, his attention fading from the game. Nick glared at him, then turned back to the game. "He shoots....he shoots and he....." The TV lost reception. "What the hell!" Nick yelled. They had been on this road trip for three hours already, and that TV was the only thing keeping his attention.
Catherine looked back and smiled. "Welcome to the wilderness. No electricity, and no reception." Nick frowned and put the TV on the floor. "Hey you keep it down Please!" Greg said desperately, pointing at Sara, who was sleeping on his shoulder. "Don't wake her up! This is the only way I can say I slept with Sara!" Sara punched him in the arm, and rolled over to sleep by the window. Nick and Catherine laughed, grissoms attention kept to the road. "Oh shot down Greg! Better luck next time!" Warrick said, leaning over, and punching him in the arm where Sara did.
"When your done beating each other up, you could look out the window and see where we will be staying for the next two months." Grissom said, pulling into a dirt driveway. They looked up to a beautiful cabin. Its was nicely sized, with red shutters and a red roof. It had a wrap around porch upstairs and a half porch downstairs. The stairs were freshly painted green, and the front yard had a tire swing, and a normal swing. They all had to agree, that it was beautiful. Grissom was even beginning to lose his doubts about the PD sending them on this vacation. What he was most nervouse about though, was spending two months with Sara. It's not that he didn't want to, because he did. Oh yes he did.
Sara got out first, and opened the trunk of the van. She grabbed her bags, and walked towards the cabin, staring at its beauty. She ran up the steps and opened the front door. She threw her bags on the frontroom floor, and looked around. The frontroom had a humungous fireplace, and three couches all in a semicircle. She grabbed her bags again and went upstairs, eager to pick her room first. She chose one that had a fireplace, double windows and a large bed. It looked like heaven. She layed on her bed, and fell asleep.
