Chapter 2
"That was by far the most sensuous kiss I have ever been given, Grissom." Sara stated bluntly.
"They are your kisses, Sara. They haven't belonged to anyone but you for a very long time." Grissom replied. "I just hope you don't tire of this old man anytime soon. I don't think I could bear it."
"You haven't anything to worry about. I could never tire of you. You are my rock. You are my everything. Don't you know that by now?" Sara kissed him again. This time she took his hand, tugging him toward her bedroom. "Now, I wanna show you just how much you've been missing, that is if you are game. Are you game, Grissom? Do you want me to make love to you?"
Grissom let Sara lead her to the bedroom with no resistance. He was stunned at the words that he had just heard come from Sara's pretty mouth - the same mouth he had fantasized doing a number of things to and with. If she only knew, she wouldn't be teasing him so much. Or maybe she did know and wanted those exact things to happen.
He pulled her back to his arms and then pinned her to the wall, kissing her hard but slow. He would show her that she couldn't tease him and think that she had the upper hand. He would show her right now.
He pulled his mouth from hers.
"Look at me, Sara. Do you want me to take you right here? If so, kiss me. I want you so bad that I don't think I can take your teasing much longer. I want to make you scream my name, Sara. I want you to beg me not to stop. I want to take you to the edge and ride out that wave with you, Honey. I want to show you just what you have done to me ever since you came to Vegas. I want to show you what I was to chicken to do to you when you asked me out that night. I wanted you so bad then, but I was going through some stuff then, Sara. I almost lost my hearing. But we can talk about that later. Right now, I want you. Here. Now."
He kissed her again, his tongue dancing across her lips, begging for entry which she gave. He caressed her body with his hands, touching her everywhere and anywhere. She moaned.
"Grissom, I want you. But not here in the hall. Take me to the bed. Make love to me now."
He had no idea where her bedroom was exactly, but he scooped her and took a chance with the first door.
Sara giggled. "No, Grissom, that one across the hall. I'm sorry for laughing but the look on your face was priceless. I guess we could have done it on the desk in my make shift office, but I would like OUR first time to be special."
With that he placed her on her feet and turned her face to look up at him.
"Sara, we are going to do this right. I am going to take you out and wine and dine you before bedding you. I will be back at 7:30 to pick you up. Don't wait for me down stairs. I will come and get you. You are going to get the princess treatment."
With that, he walked to the door still holding her hand. He kissed her on the cheek and said "See you soon."
Sara was so shocked. She was still reeling from the thought of finally having Grissom in her bed. Now she had to wait. It was only 4:00. How was she going to make it for three and half more hours?
She took a long hot bath. Shaved her legs. Painted her toe nails. She looked at the clock again. Only an hour had past. She rummaged through her closet. She had nothing to wear. OK, she had plenty to wear, but not what she wanted.
She wished then that she had girl friends that could help her out in this situation. That made her think of Catherine. They had gotten closer over the past 4 years and she didn't know why she had said those horrid things to Catherine. She decided to give her a call.
Catherine's cell phone rang twice before she picked up. Knowing that Catherine already knew who she was, she bit the bullet and said, "I'm sorry. I was out of line."
She waited for Catherine to reply.
"I'm sorry too. I don't know what has gotten into me lately. Let's get together and hash this out soon ok? I wish I could talk more, but Nick needs me at a scene so I have to go now. Did you need anything else?" Catherine said all in one breath.
"No, I just needed to apologize. I wanted some advice but work comes first, Cat. I understand. Have a good night. Tell Nick hello for me. I haven't seen him in awhile. Bye, Catherine." Sara said happily.
"Bye, Sara, and enjoy your week off. I was getting worried about you. Night, Sara." Catherine said and hung up.
Feeling like the weight of the world had been lifted, she was now in better spirits. Now she had to tackle her closet again.
This time she had better luck. She found a pair of lilac dress pants and a top that had colorful butterflies all over it to match. She picked a pair of sandals to go with it. Now, the only thing to figure out was her hair: up or down.
She went with down. It was the easiest and she had never been into being all girly anyway. She got dressed, fixed her hair, and put on some makeup in record time.
Glancing at the clock, one more hour had gone by. This was going to be one long wait. She put in a audio cassette that featured a forensic textbook and began to read along with the tape.
At exactly 7:29, there was a knock on her door. Taking a deep breath, she pulled the door open.
There stood the most handsome man she had ever laid her eyes on. He wore a nice grey suit with a silk sky blue tie that brought out his eyes even more. He stood there mouth agape at the sight of her. Suddenly, she was nervous. She was going out on a "date" with Gil Grissom.
"Could you pinch me please to see if I am dreaming?" he asked her.
"I was about to say the same to you. You know what they say "great minds think alike" Sara joked.
"Shall we go? I have us reservations for 8." He said taking her hand and leading her out of her apartment.
