Sorry about this chapter, I was stressed and needed to write, but couldn't think of anything to say, so this chapter isn't the best. Please keep reading though.

And also thank you to everyone who had reviewed, it really helps me to keep writing as well as brightening my day.

-------------------------------------

Nick eventually let go of them both leaving them gasping for air. Brass was still stod awkwardly at the side of them, trying not to laugh at the strength of Nick's reaction. Eventually Sara and Grissom both managed to get their breath back as Nick finally managed to stop bouncing around, offering barely understandable congratulations to them both. As he stopped jumping he caught sight of Brass' amused expression, his grin turned slightly sheepish as it seemed to register that he had been jumping around and screaming in the entrance to the LVPD for almost 5 minutes. It didn't stop him still grinning when he looked at the happy couple though. Brass then did start laughing slightly, a low chuckle escaping from his lips. It wasn't long before Nick was joining in with him and was having to hold himself up by bracing his arm on the detective's shoulder.

Sara slowly leant into Grissom as she watched the two men laughing uncontrollably. "Well, I didn't think it was that funny." She mock humphed, making Grissom smile. He looked down at her.

"Just think of it this way, if Nick's reaction is anything to go by the rest of the team should be pretty happy." Sara smiled up at him. Grissom toyed with the idea of kissing her for a moment, after all they were in public and in a building they worked in. He decided though that he didn't care, she was just too beautiful and happy not to kiss at that moment. He reached up and tilted her head up to face him with her chin. He leant down to kiss her. He was surprised though when Sara deepened the kiss, he had not expected it, but he gladly responded.

As he pulled away he grinned down at the woman facing him, her eyes still closed. He bumped her slightly with his hip. "You've obviously got over your inhibitions about intimacy in work."

She bumped her hip back into his, "You started it." She teased. They then both registered the silence coming from Brass and Nick and looked towards them. They looked towards them, Sara still leaning on Grissom. Nick was gaping at them, mouth open, not knowing what to think. Brass was also staring and looked as though he was trying to make his mind up about been either disgusted at watching it or happy to see how happy they were together. Sara whispered into Grissom's ear. "I think we can leave now. Those two look like they need a few moments to work things out in their heads." Grissom smiled and nodded at her.

"Do you reckon we need to head back to work to face the others or shall we let Nick break it to them? When he recovers."

Sara pursed her lips and looked thoughtful for a moment, and looked at her watch before anwering. "Well, there's only about 15 minutes left to end of shift, and it will take about 5 minutes to get back to CSI. I reckon that a similar display should tell them all that they need to know. And then we can leave them all gaping for 5 minutes as we pack up and head off 5 minutes early. What do you reckon?"

He kissed her lightly, "Great idea." He then took her hand and led her out to the parking lot. As he unlocked the door and clambered in he watched as he saw Sara slipping a note into the wipers on Nick's car. She explained as she climbed gracefully into Grissom's car. "Explaining I headed back with you. And reminding him that when him and Brass recover he's won the pot." Grissom chuckled and started driving out of the parking lot. He stopped the car outside of the office. He touched Sara's arm and gestured into the building. Nick and Brass were still stood gaping and staring, even though the two geeks had now moved on and were no longer stood there. Sara simply laughed as Grissom continued to drive to the CSI building.

--------------------

When they arrived they walked in together but not holding hands or maintaining contact. They saw Judi at the front desk but did not see any of the people they were after. The answer was explained when they reached the break room. Greg, Catherine and Warrick were all in there, apparently annoyed judging from the volume issuing from Catherine, the placating expression on Warrick's face, and Greg's barely hidden terror.

Sara and Grissom looked at each other and almost went the other way planning to let Nick tell them. But Catherine had seen them and pulled the door open and dragged them both into the room before turning on them. Asking them question and not giving them time to answer in her anger.

"What did you two think you were doing? You didn't let anyone know where you were or Nick. Why didn't you sign out of the building? You know that you always sign out when you leave the building. Always. I understand you Sara when you have an idea you just go with it. But Nick not telling anyone and Grissom, you always leave us uninformed but you never neglect safety precautions. So where were you? Never mind I already rang everyone I could think of, eventually I managed to get that you Grissom had left PD about 15 minutes before while Sara and Nick had just entered. But Grissom you didn't radio or call anyone to tell them where you were going 'cos you didn't end up back here. So go on where did you go after you left PD?" She glared at them angrily hands on her hips as she paused to draw breath.

Sara saw a chance and darted towards the blond woman and whispered in her ear. Grissom still confused as to what had caused Catherine's outburst and on what Sara was saying to her. Whatever she said seemed to calm and intrigue the older woman. "Now?" She asked, Sara only nodded. "This I gotta hear."

And with that Catherine went and sat down. Grissom looked at Sara as she started walking back to him, he suddenly understood that she had told Catherine that they were planning to tell everyone about them about them now. Apparently though Catherine had got the idea that they were going to say something. He looked at Sara seeking approval of the plan they had worked out. Sara nodded almost imperceptibly and he tried to control the smile which was threatening to appear on his face. He saw a similar struggle on Sara's face.

He held his hand out to her which she took. He then jerked her hand and pulled her the final few steps to him and onto him. Sara was now leaning on him, all of her body pressed against his. Grissom reached up and stroked her cheek, the other hand wrapped around her waist. Sara closed her eyes and moved her face closer into his hand, wrapping her arms around his neck. They both smile at each other slightly knowing that despite the fact they will know what is coming the people in the room will still be shocked, even Catherin. And also knowing that they just won't care.

And with that Grissom finally got rid of the final gap between them as he kissed her deeply but leisurely and slowly. Instantly the fact that others are watching is forgotten as they are both lost in the powerful kiss. Eventually they both pull back breathing heavily but smiling and seeking each others eyes. They find them and remain lost in them until the silence echoing around the room manages to make itself known to them. They both turn and look back at the people in the break room. They saw Greg staring shocked and also slightly disappointed. Warrick simply shocked as he stares at them both. Catherines smirk was still frozen on her face but her eyes portrayed the shock she was at how open they were. Grissom chuckling quietly, grabs some paper and a pen from his pack, writes a quick note and walks over to the table and lay it on the table.

Everyones eyes followed his path across the room, but none of them moved. He laid the note on the table and walked back to Sara's side, ignoring her questioning look about the note, he takes her hand and walks out of the room. As the door shuts behind them a multitude of sounds arise from the room. Greg almost gagging and rushing over to the sink to grab a drink of water. Warrick cheering and shouting through to them how glad he was that they finally got their act together.

Both listened for Catherine's repsonse. But heard silence for a moment followed by a laughing fit so strong that they heard her almost fall of her chair. They hear her shouting through to them "Glad you finally told him Sar." Sara blushed slightly as Grissom looked at her "Catherine knew?" Sara just looked the other way, but relaxed when she felt Grissom's arm settle about her shoulders as he continued to lead her towards the exit.

Back in the break room, Warrick and Greg finally managed to get a hold on themselves enough to notice Catherine. Warrick ran to her and peered concernedly into her face, she just waved the note she was holding in his face which Grissom had left on the table.

Warrick took it from her and swallowed audibly as he read it before handing it to Greg and also laughing. Greg read it and a smile burst onto his face as he finished the note afterwards his face paled slightly. Seeing Warrick now laughing at his expression Greg also joined in the laughin, albeit nervously. The note lay ignored on the table next to Greg's hand.

----------------------------------

By the way guys, you all lost the pot. Brass and Nick won.

p.s. Greg, when you manage to control yourself you might want to run, I don't appreciate you insinuating that the mother of my child became pregnant due to a porn film

--------------------------------

Grissom climbed into his car, a tightly controlled smile on his face, as he shut the door behind him he was surprised to see Sara staring at him from her seat. "What on earth did you write on that note?" Grissom told her what he had written. Sara simply smiled at him and took his hand, "Honey we really need to work on your threats."
