Chapter 3

Grissom looked into her eyes and saw that she did want him. Sara pulled him to her and kissed him slowly. She wanted to go slow. She wanted to enjoy their first union. She slowed down and let him make the next move.

"Don't think I'm pushing you away, but are you sure this is what you want, Sara?" he whispered in her ear.

"Yes, haven't we waited long enough?"

"Don't want to hurt you..." Grissom whispered in her ear as he gently ran his hands up her sides.

"You could never hurt me, Grissom. Go slow." Sara kissed his neck and started to pull his shirt out of his jeans and pulled it over his head. She kissed his chest. She returned to his lips and sucked on his bottom lip softly.

Grissom whimpered softly, following Sara's lead. He pressed soft kisses to her neck.

Sara moaned his name, "Gil..." She kissed his lips and pushed her tongue into his mouth

Grissom eagerly took her tongue into his mouth. He broke the kiss for a moment, as he moved his bags off the bed before returning to Sara and laying her down on the bed. His hands paused on the buttons of her shirt as his eyes mutely asked for permission to take it off.

Her eyes gave him all the answer he needed. She began to unbutton the fly of his jeans. She ran her hands down his chest never breaking their kiss.

Grissom unwittingly growled low in his throat as he attacked her blouse at first. Then he slowed down, making himself undo one button at a time. She smelled like strawberries, Grissom thought. He sighed into her skin as his tongue tasted her.

She moaned low in his ear. She pulled his jeans down. He was barefoot so no shoes to get in her way. She kissed him softly on the lips. "Screw slow, Griss. I got to have you now."

He chuckled into her breasts as he slowly slid down the straps of her bra.

"God, Gil, that feels so good. Your hands on me, please don't ever stop." she whispered encouragement into his ear. "I love you."

Grissom closed his eyes against tears as he gently moved to her pants.

Sara saw his tears and wiped them gently away. "Shh...Griss. This is what I want." Kissing him softly, she removed the rest of her clothes. She couldn't stand for anymore fabric to be in the way of their touching. She removed his boxers. Now they lay together completely nude. His body felt so good next to hers. She sighed happily.

"Sara..." he whispered as he kissed her bare skin.

"Yes." She whispered back biting his neck.

Grissom went into her hard and fast, making her scream.

She rode out wave after wave of passion. She was clinging to him with all she had until they finished still clinging to one another. Kissing his neck before settling her head down on his chest, she whispered, "I love you."

"Sleep, sweetheart," he whispered in her ear. "I've got you. " Then after a beat. "I love you too."

"You won't leave me?" She said slipping softly to sleep not hearing his answer.

Even though he was sure Sara couldn't hear him, Grissom still whispered in her ear "Not as long as you need me, Princess."
