Title: Cold As You, Epilogue
Author: butterflied4life
Rating: Teen
Pairing: Grissom and Sara, of course
Spoilers: None
Summary: My take on a song/karaoke fic using the song 'Cold as You' by Taylor Swift. Somewhat angsty, but a satisfying ending, I promise!
Disclaimer: Yep, I own CSI, just like I'm married to Zac Efron. Not.
A/N: Well, y'all wanted an epilogue, so I'm happy to oblige.
A/N 2: Many, many thanks to all my reviewers. You guys don't know how thrilling it is to get an e-mail saying you've received a review unless you're an author. I know, the author asks you to review, and you think, 'Well, plenty of other people will.' But the fact is, not that many other people review. So your review is invaluable.
Sara slowly floated into consciousness, cracking her eyes open to see light pouring in through a window. Then she remembered she didn't have a window in her bedroom and there weren't blue sheets on her bed. It was also in this same moment she noticed her back was pressing against someone else's body, and that someone else's arm was around her waist. A very special someone else. She smiled at the memory of the night before.
She, Sara Sidle, had kissed Gil Grissom, and he had kissed her back. Heaven.
Realizing he must have carried her to his bed sometime during the night, she slowly moved her hand over Grissom's arm, letting the feeling of love and security wash over her.
Not realizing he was awake, she nearly jumped when his breath hit her neck as he said, "Good morning."
Sara flipped over so that she was now facing him. "Yes, it is a very good morning," she replied. He smiled.
Grissom kissed her lightly before he extricated his arm from beneath her waist as he sat up. "I'm going to go make some breakfast for us, and then we can run you by your place so that you can get a change of clothes for work. Actually, you'll probably need to dry-clean your shirt…"
Sara looked down at her severely wrinkled blouse. "Oh no, I can never wash this." At Grissom's quizzical look, she added with a grin, "It smells like you. Now about that date…"
A/N 3: Review much loved!
