Three weeks later
Brass watched as Sara steadied herself "Sara you ready" he questioned as Sara shot her dark eyes back to him and nodded before she turned back to the target and aimed the gun. She fire rapidly until the clip ran dry. She dropped her arms and looked at the target, its chest and stomach was peppered with bullet holes. She shook her head and sighed before Brass stood beside her and let a low whistle "kill shot" he offered but Sara turned and slid the spent clip out and grabbed a spare.
"Sara that was good" Brass commented but Sara took aim once more and sighed "I don't want to kill him… no I want to kill him but I can't, he needs to pay" Sara stated before she fired again. This time she hit the targets arms and legs, a few shots hitting the neck and heart.
"maybe you shouldn't say that to me" Brass declared but Sara didn't smile instead she glared at the target "Sara don't you think" "no when it comes to Lucas I don't think any more I know with him… he is twisted and needs to pay" Sara snapped as Brass sighed then walked over to him and took the gun away from her. Sara let her shoulders sag and sigh before looking at him.
"I know we don't talk much… but I've grown to like you crazy people on graveyard shift, I don't want to see anything happen to you guys" Brass told her as Sara looked at him then gave him a small smile.
"Thank you Brass… but I have to protect Lotte" Sara stated as Brass smiled "well from what I hear you've someone who can protect you both" Brass stated causing Sara to purse her lips "Greg is a good man… he won't let anything happen" brass told her causing Sara to look down.
"Go home Sara, relax spend time with your family… we have three patrol cars watching you home. Lucas Keats's face is plastered all over Vegas" Brass assured her as Sara nodded before she looked to the target and sighed.
Sara strolled down the corridor of the crime lab barely noticing Grissom sitting in his office until he called "Sara" she came to a stop and looked around before looking at Grissom, she smiled slightly as she stepped into his office "I thought you had two weeks off" Grissom asked as Sara shoved her hands into her pockets "last minute target practice with Brass" Sara told him as Grissom nodded. He removed his glasses and looked up at her once more "Sara" "don't start Grissom" Sara warned causing Grissom to sigh.
"You're a scientist first Sara not a killer" Grissom stated and Sara looked down before she stared a him "no Grissom I'm a mom…and I'll do what ever I can to protect Lotte" Sara declared taking Grissom by surprise. Then slowly he lent back and sighed "you know there is no bond stronger then that of a mother and child… you know a woman weighting less then you pushed a SUV over to rescue her son after they had an accident" Grissom stated causing Sara to frown then she smiled and nodded. Grissom understood why she had this need, and why she was never going to allow anyone to change her mind.
"state your source" Sara ordered as Grissom grinned and shrugged "can't remember but it's true… there was once a woman who dove into freezing and strong current water to save her daughter from a car that she was locked in" Grissom stated before Sara frowned "Catherine" Grissom offered as Sara nodded then let her hands drop by her side.
After a few moments Grissom cleared his throat "you better go get ready… Greg said something about taking you away" Grissom stated as Sara rolled her eyes. Greg had persuaded her to go away for two weeks along with Lotte. He had said it would give her and Lotte time to relax while she and Greg planned both their wedding and how exactly they were going to tell the rest of their friends they were engaged.
Sara nodded and went to turn but stopped and looked at her boss and friend "thank you Grissom… for all you help, and understanding about me and Greg" Sara offered as Grissom thought then nodded.
"your welcome Sara… though knowing you sometimes it seems odd but then again Greg has grown up" Grissom offered as Sara nodded in agreement "he has grown up… in fact he has grown up so much that I've agreed to marry him" Sara declared noting the shocked look on his face before she turned and headed out of the office smiling lightly. It was official now; she was going to be Mrs Greg Sanders.
Greg grinned when Sara walked into their bedroom where he was currently packing his bag, they were leaving the next day and he had refused to pack until the day before. Sara had threatened to pack for him herself. Greg had promised to pack straight away, Sara however didn't seem impressed that he was still packing when she stopped at the edge of the bed "Greg" she growled but a smile flickered against her lips and Greg gave her his best lopsided grin causing Sara to shake her head.
"yes Mrs Sanders" he questioned with a smirk but Sara folded her arms "I'm not Mrs Sanders yet and even when I am don't think your going to get around me that easy. I will put my foot down" Sara ordered as Greg shrugged "if you like thinking that" Greg muttered before he walked around to her and kissed her firmly on the lips cutting off any remark she had for him. Sara attempted to remain annoyed but soon she melted into the kiss wrapping her arms around his neck. Greg grinned before he managed to push Sara backwards while still kissing her and laying her on the bed. He pushed his bag off the bed as well as some clothes as to make more room for the pair.
Sara giggled while Greg allowed a few inches between them "about telling everyone about us getting married" Sara started as Greg raised an eyebrow "oh" he said before Sara gave him a look "Grissom knows… I told him" Sara stated as Greg sighed and rolled off her to lay beside her "what he say" Greg asked as Sara turned him and shrugged "nothing…I told him and walked out" she stated as Greg narrowed his eyes "worried about what he would say" Greg asked before Sara threaded her fingers through his hair.
"I don't care what he thinks…what anyone has to say about us getting married. If their happy then I would like that but if not then I don't care. All I care about is saying I do to you" Sara declared as Greg beamed at her before capturing her lips. Greg snaked his hand to her hip and pushed down with his body. He couldn't help but grin when allowing her tongue in, he felt her moan.
"Greg we don't have time" Sara declared after pushing him back Greg nodded "we do have time, I just have to pack a few last things and we aren't leaving till seven tomorrow morning" Greg declared as Sara shook her head "yeah but we have to go get Lotte, Lindsey will wonder where we are… probably getting annoyed at the police car sitting outside her front door" Sara pointed out causing Greg to groan then nuzzle her neck "don't have to pick her up for another hour" he declared causing Sara to shake her head and allowed her legs to become tangled with Greg's "five minutes and then we move" Sara ordered causing Greg to sit up and stare down at her with an hurt expression "hey, I need thirty minutes at least… I'm not a jack rabbit" Greg exclaimed causing Sara to laugh as she sat up and pushed him back.
"we are not doing that Greg… we sure in hell don't have enough time for that excise" Sara joked before she got of the bed leaving Greg to flop back and groan as Sara walked to the bath room swaying her hips.
"Sara Sidle you're an evil woman" Greg declared loudly causing Sara to laugh out loud then look at him from around the bathroom door "and shortly to be all yours Mr Sanders" Sara shot back before closing the door leaving Greg to grin brightly.
