Catherine reached the crime scene before Sara did. Ofcourse. Sara had left earlier, but she needed to change clothes. 'She'll be here soon' Catherine thought. She walked onto the crime scene. "What have we got?" Catherine asked Gil Grissom.
"Triple homicide." Grissom said.
"They need you inside. I'm waiting for Sara, she'll be doing the outside."
Catherine nodded and she followed the path to the house. 'Triple homicide' she whispered. 'Creepy.'
"Oh, Catherine." Gil shouted. Catherine turned around and put her kit on the floor.
"What's up? Catherine shouted back.
"How was your date?"
Catherine smiled and walked back to Grissom, she moved close and she whispered in his ear: "It was great."
She turned around and walked back to the entrance of the house, she took her kit and walked in. She heared Sara outside, talking to Grissom. She'd be stuck inside and Sara would be outside.
"Ah, I see Grissom inspired all the troops!" Catherine said as she saw Nick Stokes and Warrick Brown were working inside the house as well. The guys laughed and sent Catherine upstairs, to view the crime scene, before she could explore the rest of the house.
Sara was working outside. Grissom, Sara and the dayshift team were looking for all kinds of prints outside the house. Sara decided not to ask where Catherine was, it might look suspicious.
3 hours later, both the inside and outside had been dusted and printed and the job at the crime scene was done. The dayshift would finish the case, the nightshift was allowed to go home. "Anyone seen Sara?" Catherine asked. Nick replied that she was with Grissom, who was outside. Catherine grabbed all her stuff and she left the house.
"Ah, fresh air." She said as she stepped outside. Sara looked at Catherine and thought she'd never looked better. "I believe we can go, guys." Warrick said. "Lunch?" Nick replied.
Grissom, Sara, Warrick, Nick and Catherine were all having lunch at a lunchroom. "I need to go to the toilet." Catherine said and she looked at Sara.
Catherine was sitting on the toilet, tapping her feet on the floor. A few minutes later Sara entered and Catherine pulled her into the cabin.
"I missed you!" Catherine said and she kissed Sara.
"Same here." Sara said. "You looked so great at the crime scene." Sara kissed Catherine back and she moved her hands over Catherine's body. Catherine lifted her arms. "No, not here!" Sara said. Catherine replied to that with a kiss. She lifted Sara's arms, but Sara kept lowering them. "Come on..please?" Catherine said. Sara said no and she left the cabin. Catherine followed her and asked: "Why not?" Sara told her she was afraid the guys might enter and see them.
"Would that be bad?" Catherine asked.
"I don't know..." Sara said. "You go back first, you've been here longer."
Catherine left the bathroom and sat down at the table with the guys. She was tempted, but didn't tell what she and Sara had been doing last night and in the bathroom. Sara came back a few minutes later, acting like nothing had happened. Catherine would like the guys to know about them, but she decided to wait until she and Sara were really 'together', as in having a relationship. After lunch Grissom allowed everyone to go home, to take a nap, before they'd have to be back for their own shift. Catherine, Sara and Warrick graciously accepted. Nick rather had the whole day off, because he had to work for Ecklie. Everybody laughed and they walked towards the car. Grissom, who did drive this time, dropped all off so they could get their own cars and go home. Catherine followed Sara, who didn't even notice she was followed. Sara liked to walk, apparently she'd like to walk home today as well.
"Hey." Catherine said, "want me to drop you off?"
"You scared me!" Sara said. "I didn't realize you followed me!" Sara kissed Catherine. "But I'm glad it was you and not some stranger." They walked to Catherines car and once they got in Sara couldn't stop touching Catherine. They made out for over 10 minutes before Catherine started the car and drove home.
"Wanna come in?" Sara asked as Catherine stopped in front of her house.
"I'd love to." Catherine said. "But I need to get home, I need to drop of my kit and I promised Lindsay I'd be home. And you need to get some sleep, we got a long shift ahead of us."
"Okay." Sara said disappointed. "I'll see you tonight then." They kissed goodbye and Catherine got in her car.
