Chapter 1

Summary: Sara is jealous of the extra time Gil is spending with Sophia and is often close to tears

when in the presence of the greusome twosome. Will her jealousy get the best of her?

"That Bitch!" Sara said standing outside of the glass door to the room that Grissom and Sophia were working in.

"What's up?" Catherine asked walking into the room.

Catherine could sense that something was wrong with Sara and gave her best efforts to try and console her.

"Ohh, it's Gil and Sophia. I never see him anymore... he spends all his time with her. Don't you see the way she looks

at him? She acts like they're the last two people on Earth and need to start a mating ritual to save the human race.

Does she not know that he's my boyfriend. I just miss him... and she isn't helping."

Sara was close to tears and Catherine caught on.

"Babe, you are my closest friend, you know that right?"

Sara nodded her head.

"Then I can assure you that their relationship is strictly work related."

"But... look at the way she smiles and the way she laughs with him. I never have that anymore. I wanna kill her... he's my

baby... THE TERRITORY HAS BEEN MARKED!" Sara said raising her voice in hopes that Sophia would catch some of their

conversation.

"Hey... tonight... my house... party! Nick is staying the night." Catherine said with a wink. "You are coming, no 'ifs, ands' or 'buts'

about it. Leave your car here tonight, catch a ride with me, because after tonight, you don't need to be driving, if you catch my drift.

Tonight is your official 'No Gil/Sophia' paaarrrrttttaaayyy! It's kinda like a Bar Mitzvah, but without all the Jewish people."

Sara smiled widely.

"Okay... sounds good. Lemme just finish up here and we can go."

"I'll be in my car... dont keep me waiting too long." Catherine said walking out of the room with a swagger.

Even Sara's smile couldn't hide her sadness. Ohhhh, Sara, look at you, you're being foolish. They're just working together

that's it... just working together. Sara thought to herself. She quickly wiped away the tear from her eyes and grabbed her coat,

quickly stealing one last glance at Gil and Sophia as she walked out of the lab.
