On the way back to her apartment Sara was kind of tempted to stop at the lock liquor store she pasted but thought better of it. After all, she wasn't supposed to be drinking at all, and she didn't want it to turn into some kind of bad habit. Right now she just wanted to get home and lay down on her couch and think threw this.
She finally pulled in at her apartment parking lot and walked rather fast to her apartment. She got out her keys and opened her door. She than took off her shoes and lay down on her couch. There she replayed the scene at Greg's over. "I don't love a goddamn whore!" Kept ringing in her head. Than she thought of Nick and how calm they'd been at breakfast, even when she was upset over being suspended. "Great. Now I get to do nothing but sit here and think for 4 more days. Unless…" She than got up and found her cell phone and dialed a number.
"Hey, it's Sara. Do you wanna get a drink?"
"I'll meet you there in 5"
"Okay, see you here," She said as she hung up her phone.
About 10 minutes later Catherine showed up at Sara's door and they left to the closest bar. They arrived and walked in and ordered some drinks. Catherine than was looking at Sara kind of weird.
"What's on your mind, Cath?" Sara asked noticing the stares.
"Why did you call me? Why not Warrick?" She asked curiously.
"Well, you tried helping Nick about me-"
"And Greg too." She said cutting in.
"What? When?" Sara said surprised and it was shown in her expression.
"When Nick said to him he'd back off. Greg just got worried and didn't want you to know. We were working on a case and I asked what was bothering him and he told me. Don't worry about it, but continue on with why you call me." Catherine explained.
Sara was still kind of shocked that Greg went to Catherine. He figured he's go to Warrick, but I guess not. "So I figured you'd help me…"
"Mhmm… With what?" Catherine asked getting into this. First time Sara's ever admitted she needed help with a problem.
"Well, Greg said he loved me." She said plainly.
"And that's a problem?"
"I think I'm starting to fall for Nick again."
"Now that's a problem."
"Yeah," Sara said looking away.
"Well, do you love Nick?" Catherine asked.
"I don't know yet," Sara admitted.
"What are your feelings for Greg?"
"Distant."
"And your feelings for Nick are not-so-distant?"
"Getting there."
"And Nick, obviously really likes you, right?" She asked to verify what she thought.
"I think."
"In other words he does. Sara I think its time for you to break it off with Greg. Go back to Nick. He's whom you should be with. He's whom your heart wants. And my advice woman to woman, follow your heart."
"Catherine thanks. For some reason having someone else lay it out for me made it make sense. So what do you say we make a quick trip?"
"Where to?" Catherine asked getting excited.
"Where do you think?" Sara said getting up.
They got back into Catherine's car and drove over to Greg's apartment. Sara got out and walked up to his door. Greg opened it and saw her and smiled.
"Hey, I thought I scared you," He said glad that she came back.
"Greg can I come in?"
"Of course," he said getting worried.
She walked past him and after she passed he closed the door. She took a seat on the couch and he next to her.
"What's up Sara? I know you well enough to know that greeting wasn't loving." Greg asked not wanting to beat around the bush.
"Greg… I don't think we should do this anymore…" Sara said trying to look at him but he was looking at the floor.
After a minute he looked up with tears in his eyes and asked, "It's Nick isn't it? You're going to go back to him right?"
"I'm not going to lie to you, I think I am." She said promptly.
"I know it," he said getting up. "I goddamn knew it. When he said that he was gonna back away and let you be happy I knew that I lost you than. I knew it. That's why I kissed you in the open." He was pacing now.
"Greg come here," She said getting up herself. He walked toward her. She gave him the best kiss she ever had and the hardest. She meant it too. She finally stopped and said, "I care about you Greg, don't forget that. Ever, and than she walked out and back to Catherine in the car.
When she got back in Catherine asked, "How'd it go?"
"Best a break up can go I guess. Wanna make one more stop?" She said looking out the window than back at Catherine.
"Where to?"
"Nicks."
