"Assignments," Grissoms says as he comes in the breakroom with a stack of folders.

"Greg and Nick, a DB at the Venitian Hotel." He slides a folder to Nick, "Brass is already there."

"You're solo tonight, Warrick," he walks over and hands him the folder, "B and E at the National Bank, from what I understand they were'nt able to get in the safe. So mostly fingerprinting and evidence. Sofia's already there."

"Must be amateurs. I'll see if they got surveillance tapes." Warrick says as he opens the folder.

Catherine closes her eyes, let me be solo, please let me be solo. I could'nt stand the embarrassment if I get hooked with Sara. Hmmm, hooked with Sara, now that's a thought, I wonder if... Damn it! Focus, girl!

She opens her eyes and sees a smiling Sara looking at her. Catherine bends her head letting her hair fall, covering part of her face and Sara.

Sara leans over and whispers, "I still can see you, Cath."

That made Catherine bolt straight up in her chair. Feeling the lipsof Sara so close to her ear, the tingling sensation of her warm breath sending cold shivers up her spine. Catherine could feel her breathing quicken and deepen. In a second she saw her palms leave sweat marks on the table.

"Catherine," Grissom walks over to her with the last folder, "you and Sara have a DB in the desert, the detective says ..." He looks at a flushed Catherine.

"Are you okay, Catherine?" He says with a concerned look.

"I'm fine, Gil. I'm fine. I just," she turns and sees a smiling Sara sitting innocently next to her looking up at the ceiling, "never mind. I'm fine, Gil." She smiles reassuringly at her supervisor.

"Okay then," Grissom says, "let's make this night a good night."

They all stand up and head out the door. Catherine rushes out trying to avoid her, but Sara catches up with her in the hallway, holds her arm, cornering her, "yeah," and in a husky voice, "we'll make this night a good night."

Catherine leans on the wall, trying to hold herself up.
