Chapter 3

When she got to the bar she parked her car. She straightened out her clothes and looked at her hair. "All in order," she thought to herself and smiled.

As she walked into the bar someone pulled up and discreetly followed her. She felt someone behind her but when she turned around no one was there. She shook it off and told herself to stop being so paranoid.

When she walked in she walked past a table full of guys and they wolf whistled at her. "Get bent!" she told them.

"Touchy," one of them mocked.

She rolled her eyes at them. She looked around the bar and then heard someone call her name. "Sara! Over here." She turned and saw Grissom. She smiled and walked up to him. She sat beside him. The bartender came over and asked what she wanted. "Umm, I'll have an orange juice please."

When she got her drink she took a sip then looked over at Grissom. "So why weren't you at that get together the others organised for me?" Sara asked.

"Miami PD called me. They wanted my expertise to help solve their case and they got it as it was to do with bugs," he answered.

Sara laughed, "Well you are the Bug man."

Grissom smiled, "So why did you leave the others early then?"

"It didn't feel right that you weren't there. You are the heart and the soul of the party," she giggled.

He looked at her with raised eyebrows, "There's another reason isn't there?"

She sighed, "Yeah. Yeah there is. When I told them i had to leave Warrick got too close to the truth of why I was going."

"Well that is what we need to discuss. When we are going to tell the others about us."

Sara looked at Grissom with wide eyes and gasped, "You mean there really is an us?"

"Yep. I thought about it long and hard and realised how much you mean to me."

"Oh my God Griss that's great!" she squealed and hugged him.

When she pulled away he looked into his eyes. She leant in to kiss him. When their lips met a cheer erupted from the table of guys by the door.

When Sara broke away from the kiss she looked over Grissom's shoulder and noticed someone standing outside the bar who looked awfully familiar. She narrowed her eyes and let out the breath she didn't realise she was holding. Grissom noticed a change in Sara and asked her, "Sara what's wrong? You've gone tense all of a sudden."

"I'll be back in a minute," she told him as she walked out of the bar. Grissom knew that attitude. Sara was pissed at someone and whoever she was pissed at better watch their back.
