AN: Thanks for the reviews.


Chapter 5: End of their first day

When their day turned to the evening the gang decided it was time to say goodbye and head back to the house, so they all got up from the chairs and ground that they were sitting on, and after lingering looks from Tony to Amanda, Ryan to Catherine and Peter to Sara, Amanda turned to Greg, he took her hand and they started to walk toward the house behind Grissom, Warrick and BreAnna, who was already walking back. Nick took Catherine's hand and they followed them.

Sara looks back and saw that Grissom was leading the group back to the house then mentally sighed, turns back to the new guys, said bye then walked off, following the rest of the gang.

The new guys were watching them leave and when they were out of sight Tony looks back at his friends with a smile on his face.

Ryan looks at him and asked. "What is that smile for?"

Tony smiles bigger and replied. "I think I am in love."

The guys shook their heads and Peter responded. "We've heard this before." Tony was a playboy so every time a new girl enters his world he would say something like that, so this wasn't new to them.

"It's different this time."

Again they shook their heads and McGee said. "We also heard that one too." McGee shook his head again and walked in the house, while the other guys stood next to Tony nodding their heads in agreement.

Tony sighed and said. "You guys just don't understand, It really is different."

Ryan talks again. "Whatever you say man, and what can you do about it anyways? The fact is she is dating Greg."

Tony just nodded and sighed, they were right about both accounts but he still felt different around her and there was nothing he could do about it. He shook his thoughts away from her, looked at Ryan then Peter and asked. "What about you guys?" They both looked at him a little confused, Tony smiled and continued. "I saw something in your eyes when you each saw Catherine and Sara."

Ryan speaks again. "It may be a small crush but like I said about Amanda, Catherine is taken."

Tony nodded then they both look at Peter and his face was natural for a minute then smiles bigger, nods and replied. "I believe a crush is the same with me too." The guys smiled at him then Peter loses his and replied. "But I don't think it really matters."

Tony looks at him confused and replied. "Why not? As far as I could see she was the only woman who didn't have a man being protective."

Peter nodded and said. "Maybe not but that Grissom guy seemed to be keeping an eye on her."

Tony thinks about that for a minute then said. "Well keeping an eye on her is not the same as dating her so as far as I can see she is free to date who ever she wants and who says she feels the same way towards him? She might even thank you if you go for her before Grissom does."

Against his better judgment Peter asked. "And how do you suppose I go about asking her?"

Tony gets a bigger smile and neither of the guys liked that but listened to what he said. "Leave that to me."

"What does that mean?" He sounded worried

Tony patted him on the shoulder and said. "Chill man it will be ok." Then he looks at Ryan and asked. "Do you want me to help you too?"

Ryan shook his head and said. "Nah man I think I am going to pass. I am not going to come between Nick and Catherine they seemed to really care about each other."

Tony shrugs his shoulders and said. "Ok." then walks away and into the house.

Once he was out of sight Ryan and Peter look at each other and Peter asked. "Should we be worried?"

Ryan shook his head and said. "No. He won't do anything to harm anybody but let's keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid." Peter nodded and they both turned and walked back in the house.

Both of them were happy they met new people today regardless on how it turns out, if anything they have new friends and that's something they will always cherish.


After the gang got inside Calleigh's summer-house, they changed into their comfy clothes, ate dinner and hung out for a few hours but it was very tense so they eventually went to their own rooms:

Warrick and BreAnna's room

Warrick and BreAnna were in bed, she was in her t-shirt and shorts laying on his bare chest, while he had his arm around her shoulders and running his hand up and down her arm.

It was quiet for a few minutes and BreAnna asked. "What do you think about kids?"

Warrick stopped his movements and said. "Are you pregnant?"

BreAnna shakes her head and said. "No but I was just wondering what you thought about them and if you wanted any. We just never talked about it before."

He nods and continues his movements as he spoke. "I love kids and I would love to have one who looks just like you."

She smiles, lifts her head up and pecks him on the lips then said. "I would like one who looks like you, I love you Honey."

He smiles and said. "I love you too babe."

They kiss one more time then she lays her head back down on his chest and asked again. "So just to be clear, trying for a baby is on the table now?" He nodded with a smile, turns to the lamp and turns it off, then wraps her up in his arms both smiling until they fell asleep, happy and excited about their new chapter they will be starting soon.


In Amanda's and Greg's room

Amanda and Greg were turning the covers down on the bed then she looks at Greg and said. "Greg for the last time I don't like him, ok?"

Since they got back from hanging out with the new people Greg has been asking Amanda if she liked Tony.

Greg sighs while getting into bed then she got in.

He looks at her and said. "Are you sure?"

She gives him a smile, nods then replies. "Yes Greg." She puts her hand on his cheek and continues. "Since we have been together it has been the best time of my life and I don't want to scare you or anything but Greg I love you."

That was the first time she said that but it must have been good because he just got the biggest smile on his face then responded. "I love you too Amanda, and these have been the best two months of my life too. I just don't want to lose you."

She shakes her head and replied. "Not going to happen." They smile, lean towards each other and kissed.

It started out soft and short then it grew passionate, when air became an issue they pulled back and Greg said "I love you so much."

She smiles bigger, pecks him on the lips, pulls back and replied."Me too."

He kisses her on the forehead, pulls back and takes his shirt off, leaving him in his boxers, while she was in shorts and in one of his older shirts. He turns out the lamp and they both lay down.

She lays on his chest, he puts his arm around her shoulders and kisses her head then closes his eyes.

After a few minutes Amanda felt that Greg was asleep, he had a very exhausting day so she wasn't surprised. As she laid there she thought. 'I really do love Greg but is there truly nothing going on with me and Tony?' She shook her head a second later and thought again. 'Of course not I love Greg.' She smiles, snuggles closer to him and closes her eyes to go to sleep.


Out in the living room

Catherine was sitting up in the bed wearing pajama bottoms and shirt, when Nick walked out from the bathroom wearing sweat pants and no shirt. She watches him walk to his side of the bed and when he got in he speaks. "So Ryan seemed nice."

She heard the tone of his voice and commented back. "So did those girls who were all over you." He looks at her and could tell she had a serious face.

He shook his head and replied. "Don't tell me you were jealous of those girls?"

The conversation that Catherine had with Grissom came back into her mind and her face changed to vulnerable, so she looked away before he could see it but he must have caught it before she turned because he scoots closer to her and takes her hand, then speaks even though she was still looking away. "Catherine why would I want those girls when I have the most beautiful women out there? They don't even compare to you and in ten years they would only wish they were as beautiful as you." She turns her head to him and had tears in her eyes from his sweet words.

He smiles that wonderful smile that she loves, wipes the few tears away and continues. "When we first got together I told you I would never hurt you and that still rings true. I love you so much. You don't have to be jealous of anybody, they are the ones that should be jealous of you."

He wipes the remaining tears away, leans forward and gives her the softest yet most powerful kiss ever.

He pulls back, she looks in to his eyes then said. "And you shouldn't be jealous of Ryan, because to me he is just a kid. I am 13 years older than him."

Nick nods happy with that answer then responded. "Yeah I see your point it would almost be like you and Greg."

They both get a sour look on their faces and Catherine replied. "Yeah please get that image out."

He smiles and responded. "With Pleasure." He leans to her and they kiss again, this one was long and passionate.

When they finally pulled back they were breathing hard, and once they got their air back he asked. "How was that?"

She smiles and said. "So much better. I love you Nicky, you do know that don't you?"

He nods, kisses her forehead, pulls back, looks into her eyes and said. "And I love you and only you." This time she smiles liking that answer, she should know that and promised herself she would never doubt that again.

She leans to him and they do a few more kisses.

When they pull back they both turn to their lamps and shuts them off, then he lays down and she follows suit, laying her head on his chest.

He puts his arm over her shoulder, kisses her on the top of the head, both sigh in content and closes their eyes, and with both of them in each other's arms they went right to sleep.


In Grissom's room

He was looking at his crossword puzzle and he couldn't concentrate because a certain person was in his head, and after what he saw earlier he doesn't know why but he feels she is slipping away from him again, then what she said to him almost two months ago came back to his mind. 'you know by the time you figure it out it really could be to late.'

He sighs, well he figured out what he was feeling he just never figured out how to tell her or what to do. He sighs again, puts his crossword puzzle on the night stand table, takes his glasses off and puts them on top of the puzzle then turns out the lamp, gets comfy, closes his eyes and dreams what he wishes how it could be, Sara safely in his arms as husband and wife.


In Sara's Room

For the past 10 minutes she had been trying to get to sleep but it wasn't working. She felt the tension in Grissom the moment Peter started looking her way and what was bothering her the most was how he was acting. He had no right to feel that way since he rejected her and now she is wondering if it was finally time to let him go and move on.

She could tell Peter liked her and could tell he was a nice guy but then she sighed thinking about this because there were two problems with even thinking about looking his way, one she didn't know if she could really trust him since Hank did what he did to her and two she knew she could never let Grissom go just like that. It seemed like no matter what she is doing or who she is seeing he always pops up in her mind and more importantly her heart.

She sighs one more time with frustration, reaches for the T.V. remote to turn the TV on, because she had to stop thinking about this or she could continue to drive herself mad. She started to flip through the channels, and even though this TV had any channel imaginable she couldn't find a show she wanted to watch, but when she hit the next channel up the discovery channel popped on and they were doing a segment on butterflies.

She smiles, sets the remote back on the nightstand table, lays on her side and the calming show put her right to sleep.

As she was sleeping a dream came to her head, it was about her and Grissom being married and they were collecting butterflies.
