Beautiful on Butterfly Wings2

Chapter: No apologies needed

Disclaimer: Don't own a thing


Man she really wished she dreamed that beep, but when he parted himself from her she knew it was real.

"I'd better get that before we burn down the place." He said hesitantly stepping out of her hold and over to the oven.

All she could think was that it was to late for that, she felt as if they already accomplished burning the place down with their hot kisses. She plopped down on his couch not trusting her legs to hold her up any longer.

Then it hit her like a ton of bricks, she did have feelings for her quiet, bug loving boss. She had suspected it with the last few months. She would get all pissed off when Sara looked at him or when she thought of Lady Heather.

She had always considered him her best friend but lately he seemed to change when she was around getting a little too friendly and now.

"Hope your hungry" Gil said after clearing his throat. She was so deep in thought that she hadn't realized that he was standing in front of her with two plates in hand.

"Yeah" Catherine said grabbing the plate from him finding it way more interesting then having to look Gil in the eyes.


After dinner was done Catherine found herself not wanting to leave as Grissom finished washing the dishes. She'd usually be gone by now but she couldn't get herself to just walk out.

"You okay?"

"Hum… Oh yeah," Catherine said turning to him confusion evident in her eyes. "Gil?"

"I'm not going to apologize Cath; I've been meaning to do that for way to long." He stated bluntly.

"Really?"

"Yeah" Before she could even think she realized she was kissing him again. With all the passion she held. She hadn't realized but she had saved it for him.

A/N: Another short chapter, but there's really not much left to say about this little scene. So what happens next eh? Reviews are helpful of course.
