Chapter 4:
Sara had made arrangements with D.B. so that she and Gil could have lunch together. It was in the café where she found him so deep in thought that he had not answer her even after she called his name. A hand to his shoulder brought him back.
"You OK?" Sara said sitting next to him.
"Just a little confused," he said.
"About?" she asked.
Gil told her what Holly had said, "I just wonder why no one dug deeper into the fact that the chief suspect and the lead detective had the same last name."
"I remember Nicky asking the same question," Sara said, "If I remember correctly Andrew Hall told him it was just a coincidence. He said it was a common name, that there were hundreds of 'Hall's' in Vegas that he was not related to."
"Two young ladies are going to talk to Detective Hall tomorrow and Miss Rose said she was going to talk to her roommates boyfriend," Gil said, picking up the menu, "Let's get something to eat before we both run out of time."
Sara smiled, "Once a CSI," she thought to herself.
Gil stood looking out the living room window, the case still bothering him. He had called Nick shortly after his lunch break and asked to talk with him. Nick confirmed what Sara had said. Nick had indeed mentioned his concern about the possibility of them being related but nothing was done about it. As a mater of fact Ellis Green, the sheriff at the time, told Nick to "Drop it".
"I was all set to take it further," Nick told Grissom, "But if you remember we got that triple homicide followed by the kidnapping of those two little girls."
"I remember," Grissom said, "It was 'all hands' for the next four days."
"I guess the robberies just took a back burner," Nick had told him.
"Gil," Sara said, "Let's get some sleep."
He turned to Sara, "Sure. As soon as I call Jim."
Sara chuckled, "It really has you doesn't it."
Gil just nodded his head.
Gil lay down on the bed, and motioned for Sara to join him. He placed a finger under her chin, and pulled her into a kiss.
Gil moved his lips down to her neck, and finally, to her breast. Taking a nipple into his mouth, she breathed his name and ran her fingers through his hair. Gil eased her legs apart with his hand, moving his mouth from one breast, to her other, sucking on her nipple and brushing his finger against her nub, sending her senses into overload.
While using his thumb to caress her nub he placed a finger inside of her, pumping. Her moans kept getting louder and she was panting for air. Gently Gil placed another finger inside of her and a second later as moisture flooded his hand he knew she was done.
Gil raised above her and gently kissed her as he entered her, causing her to cry out. Gil closed his eyes and groaned, relishing at the euphoric feeling he got just from being inside of her.
Gil felt as though their bodies would melt together as they continued to love each other.
Panting heavily now, Gil increased his movements, thrusting into her. Sara moaned, feeling her body shudder as her second orgasm swept through her. Gil felt her walls tighten around his manhood as she came, stopping momentarily to savor the sensation of her orgasm.
Sara could feel Gil's manhood as it started to throb, she knew he was close.
Sara held him to her as he shuddered, spilling himself deep within her.
Sara had fallen asleep after they had made love. She was still wrapped in his arms, Gil tenderly kissed her head. He smiled, he knew he could never get his full of her. He yawned. When he had gone to bed he wasn't sure he could sleep, the case had his brain working overtime. Drifting off to sleep he knew he was holding the perfect sleep aide in his arms, his beautiful Sara.
The next morning Jim and Holly sat across from Carl Hall while, in the next room, Sara and Casey were talking to former LVPD Detective Andrew Hall.
Into there second hour of questioning Carl started to sweat, Jim decided to take a big gamble. He walked out in the hall, grabbed an folder then stood there for a few minutes before walking back in.
"Time to come clean," he said, handing Holly a folder with a punch of blank papers. "We have here a statement from your uncle telling us everything.
"I got scared," Carl said, "After Joe shot your brother I panicked. I thought he had killed him. I went to see Uncle Andrew, he told me not to worry about it. The sheriff owed him a favor, he would take care of it. I told Joe I was out and if he was smart he would be too."
'Joe' turned out to be Joseph South, the oldest son of one Vegas' better known lawyers.
In class that afternoon Grissom made the announcement that the case they had opened is now closed. The whole class was given permission to go to the Cold Vault room. Grissom wanted them to see what it looked like and he wanted them to pick another case. After a trip to the vault by the class a second case was picked. There had been a series of B&E'S. All while the families were away. Nothing taken but electronics and cash. They had there next case.
