I Do Not Own CSI
"Hi, Marie," Sara said through a TTY telephone.
"Hi, Sara, how are you doing over there?"
"Good, actually I had a small favour to ask you?"
"Sure, what's up?"
"Are you busy for the next couple of hours?"
"No, not really, why?"
"I was wondering if you wanted to babysit for a couple of hours. I have a couple things I want to pick up and it would be great to get out of the house for a bit. Gil will be home from work in a few hours; he had a meeting today. I'm just getting ready to feed the boys and I want to get out of here and back before Gil gets home."
"Have something special planned for Valentines Day, Sara?"
"Maybe"
"Give me a half hour and I'll be over."
"Thanks, Marie."
"Knock, knock," Marie called as she entered the front door, Bruno happily running up to her.
"Hey boy, where's your mommy?"
"Right here," Sara said, coming in with Garrett over her shoulder, a burp blanket under him.
"And how are my grandsons today?"
"I think they're doing pretty well, aren't you, buddy," Sara cooed as she passed him over to Marie.
"Where's Samuel?"
"He's in the kitchen in his swing. I swear that thing is a godsend, he loves being rocked in it."
"If only they had those things back in my day."
"So, what are your plans for tonight? Do you need me to babysit?"
"I would love it if you could babysit but I'm still nursing and they still need to be fed every four hours or so. I promise, as soon as they're on bottles you can babysit."
"Deal. So what about tonight, any plans?"
"I think it's just going to be a quiet night in. Gil said he would make dinner and I'm going out to get a movie."
"And what do you have to get at the mall," Marie asked, making Sara blush.
"Oh come on Sara, give me a little something."
"I decided to make a stop at Victoria's Secret. If I feel comfortable enough in something there I might just buy it."
"Are you two allowed to have sex yet," Marie asked bluntly, making Sara blush again.
"Sara, you have two babies and you're married, I know you to have sex."
"Yes, we're allowed. I called my doctor and she said as long as it feels ok for me then we can have sex again."
"Well good, because I think Gil's been a little uptight lately."
"Marie," Sara laughed out.
"Can I help you with anything," the saleslady asked, coming up to Sara who was browsing through some silky lingerie.
"Oh, umm, I don't know, maybe."
"Well, what mood are you going for?"
"Romantic, but also that 'I want to pin you to the bed' look," Sara said, making the older woman laugh.
"Sorry, this is the first chance my husband and I have had to get our sex life back since I gave birth."
"Nothing like the first time all over again. Ok, tell you what, why don't you follow me over here," she asked, leading Sara to another rack.
"I'm guessing you don't want the all out costume garb."
"No, something simple, but sexy, I'm a little body conscience at the moment," Sara said as she wrapped her arms around her mid section.
"Oh honey, trust me when I say you look fabulous. How old is your baby?"
"Babies, I had twins and they're six weeks."
"You had twins six weeks ago? Oh honey, I was bigger than you after eight weeks with a single baby! What about something in black?"
"I dunno. It's Valentine's Day, I was thinking something more festive."
"So, red and pinks then."
"I guess," Sara said as she followed the woman to another rack.
"What do you think of this," she asked, holding up the garment.
"Now we're talking!"
"Did I ever tell you that I love your cooking," Sara said through bite full's of the dinner Gil prepared for the two of them.
"You may have mentioned it once or twice," Gil said as he took their empty plates to the kitchen and brought back dessert.
"Triple chocolate cake."
"Ohh, make my toes curl, why don't you."
"You know I love doing that, honey." Gil said huskily as Sara slowly took a bit of the cake, pulling the fork out of her mouth oh so slowly.
"I think we should skip the movie, Gil."
"I couldn't agree more."
"Do you have your eyes closed," Sara asked through the closed bathroom door.
"Yes honey, can you come out now."
"Ok, I'm coming out, don't open your eyes," Sara said as she came through to the bedroom only to stand in between Gil's legs on the bed.
"Happy Valentines Day," Sara whispered. "You can open your eyes now."
"You're beautiful!" Was the first thing that came out of Gil's mouth, making Sara give a slight smile.
"Really, honey, you look absolutely stunning," Gil said as he ran his hands under the hem of the short pink silk slip that Sara wore.
"I love you."
"I love you, too," Sara said as she leaned down to kiss her husband, running her hands through his curls.
"Make love to me," she managed to say before Gil turned her around on the bed quickly.
"Let's make love together."
"Well, aren't you chipper," Catherine said as Gil entered the break room with kick in his step.
"Chipper?"
"Yes, chipper. Do I dare ask what happened on your night off last night, on Valentine's Day?"
"You can ask, doesn't mean I'll answer."
"Bossman got laid," Greg said through a cough, making Nick laugh.
"Greg, decomp out at Lake Mead."
"Oh man!"
"Sucks to be you, Greggo," Nick said with a smile.
"Nick, you're with him."
"Well at least we'll smell like death together," Greg quipped as they left the room.
"Very mature, Gil," Catherine said.
"It pays to be boss. You two have a DB on Industrial," he said, giving the slip to Warrick before he left.
"Oh and guys," Gil said, peeking his head through the door.
"Yeah," Warrick replied.
"I hope you two had fun on your date last night."
"How did…," Catherine asked.
"Catherine, I see and hear everything around here. You two may want to keep the PDA out of the storage closet," was all he said before he left the room.
"Well, it looks like we're out of hiding," Warrick said.
"I doubt it, Gil knows how to keep a secret. We're safe until we want to go public.
Now come on, we have a case to solve. Then we can go back to mine and relive last night," Catherine said as she left the room to a smiling Warrick.
