Bright Starts and Dark Motives
Chapter 3
Greg sat around the table with the others. He had asked them to come along with him to meet Jennifer. He also though it would be a good idea maybe for everyone to meet each other outside of work for the first time. It had been three day since the team found out that Jennifer was coming and that she was Greg's twin sister, so there had been a lot of questions. Greg had done his best to tell all that he could but the truth was he did not know all that much about Jennifer anymore. It made him sad to think about how much they missed of each other's life, but now that she was coming to his town, that was all about to change.
Greg kept looking at his watch. Catherine who was sitting next to him placed a hand on Greg's arm, "Don't worry, she will be here."
"Your right, I am going to get us some drinks." Greg stood up and walked over to the bar and ordered the group some drinks.
Jennifer stood outside of the bar, not wanting to go in just yet. A voice in the back of her head told her to turn and run, to go back to LA where she belonged. But another voice was telling her that this was where she belonged and that this was the best thing for her. Jennifer just want to walk in and to know everything was going to be ok, but for so reason she felt that this was Greg's life and that she was barging in on it and she was not ment to be here.
Taking a deep breath Jennifer pushed open the door. It was too late to turn back and she had to face what ever was to come her way. It may be open arms or a cold shoulder, but what ever it was going to be, she was ready.
Jennifer walked into the bar and into her new life.
"So what do you think she is going to be like?" Nick asked not really know what else to say while they waited for Greg to return.
"I think she is going to be goofy looking like Greg… Ow what was that for?" Warrick was rubbing his arm where Catherine had just slapped him. "Come on I mean a twin sister, they have to look a lot alike, or maybe she is a very good looking girl, but from that gene pool we are asking for a lot."
Catherine just gave Warrick a look wile Nick could not help but laugh. Grissom was about to go into a speech about something to do with twins, when they saw that Greg was waving to someone. They all turned to see whom it was that he was waving too and in the crowd of people a girl was waving back.
"See I told you." Warrick said with a grin.
The girl waving was about 5'4" with straight brown hair, which was pulled up in a high pony tale. She wore black dress pants and a plain white dress shirt. She had a goofy grin and to tell the truth she looked about ten pounds over weight.
"Wow for being twins they look nothing alike. They don't even have same eyes. But I guess that can happen right?" They all looked at Sara. She was not expecting the question to be answered. She just felt that she needed to say something.
Greg was now walk away from the bar and all eyes were on him. They could see that he had a huge smile on his face. He was so happy to see his sister. As he walked past the girl that had been waving, the group all had a stunned look on their faces. It had not even come to their minds that maybe Greg had been waving to someone else all together. Then he came to a stop in front on a girl who was standing by the door. Then after a few seconds he hugged the girl tight.
"Well it looks like you weren't asking for too much now does it Warrick?" Catherine could not help herself. The looks on their faces were just way too funny.
There stood Jennifer Sanders for all to see. She was about 5'9" slim, but not too slim. You could tell that she worked out. She had blonde hair that was just past her shoulders in length, with a wavy bounce to it. She wore jeans and a tank top, with a jean jacket. She had the eyes and nose that Greg did. There was no mistake that they were brother and sister. She was smiling, a smile that could light up any room.
As Jennifer hugged Greg, she knew how much she had truly missed him. It had been way too long since the last time they had seen each other. It had been almost three years.
"You are looking so good Jennifer. Wow you must have lost what thirty pounds since the last time I saw you?" Greg took a step back to have a good look at his sister.
"Well thirty-seven to be exact and you are looking great yourself. Love what you did with your hair." Jennifer could not help but smile. She felt like all eyes was on her as she looked at the group of people sitting at a table across the room. She knew that they had to be Greg friends that he was always talking about.
Greg saw that Jennifer was looking across the room at the others, so he took he hand and started to lead her across the room through the crowd to here his friends where. "They are so looking forward to meeting you. Don't worry they won't bite, well not too night at least." Greg's words made Jennifer smile. She had been so nervous to see Greg again, but her was horrified to meet the rest of the team.
They came to a stop at the table. "Guys this Jennifer, you could say my better half." The group smiled at Jennifer. They could tell that she was nervous and who could blame her, if any of them were in the same spot, they would feel the same.
"Hello" Jennifer said smiling at the people that were about to change her life in so many ways.
