Sara kissed him back. All eyes were on her and him. Catherine was just staring at them. In shock. Brass had to lead her out of the restaurant.
"That's what I've been wanting to do all night." She kissed him again.
" Me too. " He smiled. " I do love you... so much. "
"I love you." She said as she led him back to their table. Their food had arrived during their public display of affection. "Let's eat. Then leave."
" Good idea. " He pulled her chair out for her again, then walked back and sat down. They ate in peaceful silence, sharing bites with each other once in a while. They made their way to the door after finishing dinner and Grissom paying for their meal. He indeed left a good tip. She'd made him. A note was handed to him after paying.
It read:
Grissom,
You and Sara take tonight off. I got you covered.
Love,
Catherine
P.S. Glad to see you lifted your head out of that microscope.
"Do you want to drive, or do you still want me too? " He asked as they waited hand in hand for the boy to bring the car around.
"I would get us a ticket with my lead foot, Griss. You'd better do it. I think you had less to drink than me." Remembering her two nearly full glasses and his half full glass. The only one he'd had.
" You have a good point there honey. " The car pulled up, and he opened the door for her. He then walked around to his side, and hopped in. He started the car and drove them to the dessert, to watch the starts... or at least try. The minute the car was parked, she opened her door and got out. She took her shoes off and left them in the car.
"It's nice out here at night." She said as she walked around to his door, and opened it for him. She wanted him out there with her. He looked at her confused, but got out, and shut to door.
" We can always look at the stars from inside the car, love. "
"I know. But out here we can dance if we want to." She reached in and turned the key backwards and put Grissom's CD back in. The music slowly lifted out from the car and was carried over the sand. "Dance with me." She asked him.
"Anywhere, anytime. " He answered before talking her hands in his. They let the music drift through the night air. He put one arm around her waist and the other still held onto her hand. She laid her head on his shoulder. Listened to his heart beating. They swayed not really moving their feet.
"I love it here. I love you. " He stated simply. He kissed the top of her head.
"I love you too." She said slowly. "You don't happen to have a blanket in that car, do you?"
He smiled. " I come prepared. " He walked over to the back of the mustang, and popped up the trunk. He came back carrying a Navy Blue flannel blanket.
She took it from him and spread it on the ground a little ways away from the car. She sat down and rubbed the spot next to her. "Come on, Griss Baby. I don't bite."
"We might have a problem, cause I might bite. " He teased as he sat down next to her.
"I don't mind." She said as she got on her knees and came toward him. Reaching him she kissed him hard on the mouth. Not breaking the kiss, she pushed him back softly so that he was laying down. She was at his side still kissing him.
He moaned softly against her mouth. The need for air urging him to break the kiss, hesitantly he did. " Sara, are you sure? "
