"Cath! BABY! Where's my booze? I need a refill!" Nick said laughing.

Catherine walked out with a ginormous smile on her face.

"Sar, you're gonna love me!"

"You got BBQ chips! Why, yes I do love you, Cath!"

"I got your favorite bag of chips!" She said with a giant smile

Grissom walked out slowly and Sara almost cried.

"Baby!" She screamed, tears welling up in her eyes. Sara jumped up out of the pool and didn't bother to grab a towel before she threw herself at Gil.

"Babe... we really need to talk..." Grissom whispered in her ear as her arms were wrapped tightly around his neck.

"Hey! You lovebirds! Keep it safe, alright!" Nick yelled, obviously on his way to wasted-ness

Catherine shrieked in happiness.

"Nicky! If they're goin into the spare room... that leaves time for us!"

"In the pool?" Nick asked seeming befuddled.

Catherine peeled off the remainder of her clothes and jumped into the pool. Catherine swam 2 laps and "collapsed" into Nick's arms in the shallow end. She felt his cold hand touch her butt under her bathingsuit.

"NICK! We have guests..." She exclaimed laughing.

"Hey, I'll do it all for the nookie!" Nick said looking into her eyes.

"Guys! If you use the spare room... there's a nice warm bed. Walls are not soundproof so keep it down in there, in case Nick and I need my room." Catherine said sarcastically.

Grissom and Sara walked slowly, arm in arm into the house while Nick and Catherine sucked face in the backround.

The mood was hightened and Grissom and Sara knew it and took full advantage of it.

"Babe..." Gil whispered in her ear

"Babe, I love you so much... I thought you were gone..."

"Shhh... dont talk just enjoy it."

"But, Gil, you hurt me and I'm not exactly sure if my heart can take anymore of this pain. I accepted the fact that you and Sophia would be spending extra hours working on your cases, but I didnt realize how many hours you meant..."

"I know, Hon, and I realized that tonight. You should have seen Soph's face after Catherine blew up at her." Gil said chuckling quietly

"Wait... what? What happened, Gil?" Sara asked looking puzzled.

"Let's just say they exchanged a few words... I sorta hadda get her outta there before they exchanged fists."

"Why would they do that?"

"Oh..." Gil cleared his throat.

"Gil, what are you hiding from me?" Sara looked up at him in shock

"Catherine drove down to Hunter's and..."

"...And what!"

"I was going to prepare dinner for Sophia and I..."

Sara's eyes welled up with tears and she sat on the edge of the bed with her head in her hands.

Gil put his arm on her back and talked quietly.

"Sara, if I wanted to be with her, I would be with her right now. I came here for you, Baby, and Ill do anything for you."

Sara turned around and planted a sweet one on Gil's lips. They laid there for several hours. Sara drifted off to sleep. Catherine and Nick stumbled into Catherine's room. About 30 minutes went by. Gil chuckled to himself.

"Now I know what they mean by the walls arent soundproof."
