A/N Thanks so much for the reviews, the make me happy. anyway heres the second instalment of the slip ups. Hope you like :-)
Nick wasn't able to find Catherine in the time it took for Brass to bring in the suspect which meant the gossip he had would have to be saved for later. Meanwhile over by the trace lab Greg was sat next to an overly annoyed Hodges who was trying to explain to Greg the process of determining trace.
"I was a lab rat myself you know" Greg moaned tapping his fingers on the table in a bored fashion.
"But you didn't run trace did you" Hodges argued
"No but I never needed to…look I have more important things to discuss, page me when my results are in"
"More important…meaning gossip" Hodges sneered
"Exactly"
"Wait till Grissom finds out what you do on lab time…I myself have never succumbed…"
"Save it, I'll listen to your lectures another day" Greg yawned utterly bored with the days events.
He wandered slowly towards the locker room, feeling like he needed a little alone time before trying to solve his hellish case, he sat down on one of the benches near the back of the room and ran his hands through his hair.
"I know that but you…" Sara's voice spoke out from what sounded like the showers.
"I feel the same way, it is hard but we will deal with it" Grissom's voice interrupted making Greg move closer to the showers wondering why Sara would allow someone into her personal space.
"I guess I didn't realise how hard it would be" She reasoned her voice a little nearer meaning she was out of the shower.
Grissom laughed a little and the creak of the bench he was possibly sat on made Greg dash out of the room before they saw he had over heard their conversation, private or not.
A little later that day, Greg had stopped thinking about the scene from the locker room because he felt it was unwise to linger over things that could be further discussed with the queen of gossip. After sending a text to her stating he needed to see her urgently he returned to work mode with a smile on his face and fresh determination filling in his handsome features.
Grissom and Sara however were now next door looking over evidence from their new case with a disgruntled Brass.
"All I'm saying is we'll have to let the suspect go because the evidence isn't enough to keep her in lock up" Brass said
"We know, we thought what we had would have stuck…we'll go over the evidence and try to find something else" Grissom replied as he finished laying out all the crime scene photos on the layout room table.
Brass straightened up slightly to have a better look and watched as Sara leaned across Grissom to pick up one of the photo's, her hand placed carefully over Grissom's raised Brass's eyebrows especially when she left it there slightly longer than necessary…
Sara removed her hand when she saw Brass's stare and she pointed out to him something they hadn't spotted before. "Look, this woman has been at every scene or place connected to the victim" She looked at Grissom who was now smiling and pointed out several more photos of the woman.
"It's her, the suspect…surely this will make her confess or give us enough reason to prosecute" He said to Brass who was also smiling, not at the new evidence but at the obvious relationship between the boss and his subordinate.
TBC... the little conversation in the shower room was about Hank (the dog) and how they didnt realise how hard it was to look after. please review :-D
