Chapter 5

New Year's Eve Party-Tangiers 7:30pm

Grissom and Sara were the last of the graveyard shift to arrive at the party. The team of course was not surprised. When they approached Warrick questioned, "What you two have another fight and then make up?" it quickly dawned on Warrick what he just said and added, "never mind I don't want to know."

Sara goes, "Thought so, and try not to be loud you do realize there are other people at this party?"

"Oops! Sorry guys."

From there they moved on to other less dangerous topics to talk about around fellow co-workers. Of course, the six did their best to avoid having to mingle with Ecklie. All the while Grissom was trying to avoid Hodges as well but it was hard because the guy kept on tracking him down and every time Grissom had found a quick excuse to get out of it. It wasn't that Grissom had a major problem with Hodges it was just that well, he could be annoying, and tonight he really wasn't interested in entertaining the guy.

9:30pm

Ecklie for some reason was now headed towards Grissom, Sara, Catherine, Nick, Warrick, and Greg. They all started shifting uncomfortably afraid that the only reason Ecklie was coming over was because he had heard about Warrick's comment about Sara and Gil earlier. As it turned out that was not the case. As Ecklie closed in and came with in hearing and speaking distance he asked, "So, how are you all enjoying the party?"

Nick responded with, "I am enjoying myself," and the rest of the team agreed vocally and nodded their heads. "Good, glad hear it, well, I got to go talk to the Sheriff." Thankfully, with that he turned and left the team hoping he didn't come back for more of a conversation.

It turned out they didn't have to worry about it because Ecklie ended up doing other things and had only come over to be polite and social. Grissom also got fortunate with his ordeal with Hodges because Hodges had decided to go talk to one of the female lab techs from days. His ultimate goal was probably to be able to kiss her at midnight. Catherine in fact decided to state this and the whole team laughed. As it neared midnight the team decided to wander to an area where they would not be seen very well by the others after all Sara and Grissom did want to kiss each other as did Catherine and Warrick.

12:00am January 1, 2007

As everyone else from the lab blew noisemakers and such, Grissom and Sara shared a kiss, as did Catherine and Warrick. Grissom, Sara, Greg, and Nick were all glad the two were finally able to share a kiss and all were happy that Warrick had finally divorced Tina. That is not to say that they didn't like her, it was just they thought that Warrick and Catherine were better together. At that the party winded down and people started leaving. In fact, Grissom and Sara turned out to be probably the first ones to leave. Nick, Warrick, Greg, and Catherine figured that those two weren't done celebrating the New Year as they got in their cars and left.


Note: Yes, Grissom and Sara went home to Celebrate some more but I shall leave it to your imaginations as to what they did but they did indeed have a Happy New Year a very very very Happy New Year in fact actually probably one of the best.
