A/N: Hope you enjoy this one. This chapter is a little wonky and you might wonder why the heck I wrote this in here and all, but it had to be done.
If Heaven
Chapter Five
That night everyone was in Sara's living room and they were hanging out watching movies. Then there was a knock at the door that made the group groan as they had to pause it.
"Hurry up it's getting good," Aaron said.
"Majorly," Jessica said.
"Yeah, yeah," Sara said climbing over Stephen and answering the door. "Nick."
"Yeah, hey," he said. "Um, Brass wanted to tell you that there's no sign of Alec in Las Vegas, Henderson, or anywhere around here. We tried to call but you're phone's off."
"Yeah we're all watching movies," Sara said with a small smile.
"We'll get him Sara," Nick said.
"Thanks," She smiled.
"Take care," he said before leaving.
Sara walked back in and sat, but they didn't unpause it they were looking at her.
"What?" she asked.
"Nothing," they grinned and watched the movie.
Sara knew her friends thought, "he's not my boyfriend."
"Sure," They said and the great Pillow war began.
After dropping off Emily at the neighbor's who was going to baby sit Sara slipped on her jacket as the gang got ready.
"Alright I have 2 hours to party before my shift starts," Sara said.
"Viva las vegas baby," Aaron smirked.
Sara walked into her shift wearing party chothes and then she slipped a sweater on over it not noticing Catherine who saw.
"Where'd you go?" Catherine asked.
"Taking the guys for a night on the town for a bit," Sara said.
Catherine grinned, "Grissom needs to talk to us all. Come on."
The group left and the day that they did a note was left for Sara on her porch from Alec that read "Looking foreword to seeing you soon, Alec."
Sara didn't tell anyone at her work or anything about it, she just took the day off of work without explaining anything. Emily was at school and Sara turned on the radio after taping her knuckles and then she stretched a bit before starting to pound on the punching bag. She punched it before getting a kick at it. After a few minutes she sighed and leaned against the bag out of breath. A memory of Alec slipped into her mind and she punched the bag again before stepping back with memories flowing in her mind. She then turned the music up a bit louder and started pounding and kicking for awhile more.
When Sara returned to work the next day Catherine got in about the same time.
"Have fun yesterday?" Catherine asked.
"Just caught up on some sleep," Sara said closing her lockers.
"Where'd you pick up the bruises?" Catherine asked and Sara looked at her knuckles which had bruises.
"Didn't tape it all the way with the punching bag," Sara said shrugging.
"Punching bag?" Catherine said.
"Had to punch something. Prefer a wall?" Sara smirked.
"Don't think so," Catherine said.
Sara opened the door to see Aaron there.
"Aaron. What the heck?" Sara asked letting him come in.
"Look, Sara. I'm not as oblivious as the other guys and I gotta tell you that you're freaked out about Alec," Aaron said.
"And what are you here about that for?" Sara asked and Aaron tossed her a duffel bag she caught.
"I got a week off because of a case that got too close to home," Aaron said. "In San Fran we'd go work out together and do martial arts. I highly doubt with your job now you've been doing that."
"So you're here to help," Sara said.
"Yeah. I got a week to make you at least tolerable when it comes down to kicking some ass," Aaron grinned and Sara smiled.
"Thanks," Sara said.
"Well, we got some work to do," Aaron said.
"You're tense. Tense means you're awake, and not unconscious," Aaron said to Sara who was lying on the ground.
"Well I've got my eyes closed while you walk around like an insane maniac Aaron," Sara said opening her eyes but Aaron pointed at her.
"Hey, eyes closed," Aaron said and she did.
"What's the point of this?" Sara said.
"Playing dead can save your ass one day," Aaron said walking around her. "Listen to where I am and try to follow me in your mind. You know this area, what I'll walk around. Men always have to go back for one last hit, to prove we won."
"Even if I'm knocked out?" Sara asked.
Aaron chuckled, "Even if you're dead. Now try it."
Sara sighed and relaxed as Aaron walked. She listened and followed the footsteps. Aaron whipped his foot at her but she quickly reached out and grabbed it before pulling it and making him fall to the floor.
"Good girl," Aaron said and Sara sat up. "Except my ass hurts."
Sara laughed and they both stood. He then wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and she relaxed.
"Key things when avoiding someone," He said into her ear. "Be aware of your surroundings and make obstacles. Never keep your eye off of him. And the most important thing?"
"Everything is a weapon," Sara said and Aaron whirled her around. "I need to get ready for work."
"Alrighty then. I'll go make sure Emily doesn't need help on her homework," Aaron said and Sara smiled.
"Thanks for this Aaron," Sara said.
"No problem," He grinned.
Preview of next Chapter:
Sara turned to get some sleep in her room when she saw Alec standing there, and her heart froze.
"Alec," she whispered fearfully when she then saw the baseball bat in his hand.
"Sara," he smirked wickedly.
