Sorry it took so long to update...Perhaps this make up for it...
She wanted some peace and quiet; she wanted to gather her thoughts.
Chapter 3
New Dynamics
It had been two weeks since Sara and Greg's first date. Despite her misgivings, Sara found herself having a good time with him. She smiled more, that was for sure. Whether or not she would fall in love with him…well, that remained to be seen. Nevertheless, it was fun, and she certainly didn't have any other options. Besides, what was the harm in it?
The others at the CSI lab had understandably been apprehensive about Greg and Sara as a couple. After all, the new relationship had come as a shock to them; it was nothing if not unexpected. As time wore on, though, they seemed to loosen up about the whole thing. Sara and Greg were careful not to let their emotions interfere with their work—helped along by a serious discussion with Supervisor Grissom.
Nick was a bit surprised to find himself upset by the new relationship. He tried his best not to show it; after all, they deserved to be happy. Greg and Sara were his friends, and Nick would be damned if he was going to be the one to ruin their relationship.
On the other hand, you always want what you can't have. With Sara taken, Nick had come to realize just how much he cared for her. Convinced that the relationship would eventually fail—it was, in all honesty, a ridiculous pairing—Nick resolved to wait it out. If and when they broke up, he would be ready. He would be her shoulder to cry on, her supportive friend, and when the time was right, he would make his move.
