Together We Can
a Greg & Sara story
Part Five - Greggo & Saris
Greg pulled down on the side of the road and turned off the engine. He looked at Sara, who was sitting next to him in the passenger seat of his car.
"Sara, are you sure you should already get back to work?" he asked, concern in his brown eyes.
Sara smiled ironically. "Greg, come on. It was my own fault. It was such a crazy idea to climb out of that window and I should've known that. I am not gonna let you do all the work by yourself because of my own stupidity."
"You really don't have to pretend in front of me, Sara. I know you had some terrifying moments down that gutter."
Sara looked down at her hands. It was true; of course it was true.
"... at least I had."
Now Sara turned her face onto Greg again. "You did?"
"Sara, what did you think then?"
Sara sighed. "I should've just listened to you when you told me it was a bad idea to climb out of the window."
Immediately after she had said that, Sara corrected herself and added, "No, I should've thought of it myself."
They both didn't say a word for a while, until Sara broke the silence: "Look, this has happened and we can't change anything about that. Let's just forget it."
Greg shrugged his shoulders. "What you want," he mumbled, opening the car door.
A thing that had been bothering her for a few days, suddenly popped into Sara's mind.
"Greg, wait."
"What?" He turned around, facing Sara.
"I just... I realized I never really thanked you for... well, you know..."
He shrugged. "Thank Catherine. After all she was the one who rescued you..."
"Well, if you hadn't gone to get her, then---"
"Sara, seriously stop it. What was I supposed to do then? Leave you hanging there?"
"Well, no, but... still..."
"Sara---"
"Thank you, Greggo."
Greg smiled. "No problem. Now, let's get to work, before Grissom will get mad at us."
"Good idea."
With their kits in their hands, they passed the 'crime scene - do not cross'-line and walked into the house.
Half an hour later, Sara and Greg were both working.
Sara glanced at Greg, who was taking a photo. Then her eyes went towards the window and she grinned by herself.
"Hey, Greg," she said, walking up to the window, "I think there's something lying down there, outside of the window... maybe I should---"
"NO!" Greg jumped up, almost dropping his camera. "No, no, no, I am not letting you do that again. No way, Sara, really---"
He then realized Sara was looking at him, her whole face smiling.
"Is something funny?"
"I was kidding, Greggo."
"Oh." Greg hung his head.
Sara laughed. "But if I did - would you come and rescue me again?"
"Naaah... I'd just leave you hanging there. You'd never stop teasing me anyway."
His voice sounded a little insulted.
The smile dropped from Sara's face. "Oh, Greg, I am sorry. I shouldn't have done that..."
"It's okay, really. Just don't climb out of a window again, will you? I am already afraid of heights..."
Sara laughed. "Promised, Greggo."
"Alright, Saris."
Sara spun around. "Saris?"
"You keep calling me 'Greggo', so I figured I should make up a nickname for you, too."
Sara kept quiet for a while, then she smiled. "That's actually kinda cute. Saris sounds nice."
"So we're Greggo and Saris."
"Sounds like a team."
Greg laughed. "Yup. Greggo and Saris. Together we can."
