Disclaimer: I own nothing :(
Hi all, thank you for the reviews! Since the next two chapters are short i thought I'd upload them both together and if you're lucky you may get another chapter by the end of the day. I promise Catherine will come to her senses soon. Enjoy x
P.S thought I should mention that this does not really follow any particular time but is around season 3/4. Also, Lindsey is only 7. Call it creative license. :)

Chapter 3: Can't Get You Out Of My Head
She had done everything in her power to avoid Sara for the best part of a month. When they had been paired together they worked professionally with very little talk. It seemed that Sara was following her orders, and hadn't brought up the forbidden subject. However, that's not to say it hadn't been playing on a certain blonde's mind. She didn't know why this was such an issue for her, like she had said, she was not gay. Sure as a dancer she had slept with a couple of other strippers, but who hadn't – in that line of work it was safer than sleeping with the customers – but that did not mean she was attracted to women. She liked guys! It was just one drunken night with a co-worker and it meant nothing, absolutely nothing at all. … So then why the hell couldn't she get that girl out of her mind?
Gil's hands roaming across her body as his mouth attacked her neck brought her out from her thoughts. Every time he touched her she couldn't help, despite her best efforts, comparing him to Sara. How his hands were rough and calloused, while Sara's were smooth. His touches were hurried and often flustered while Sara's had been soft, almost feather-soft, but deliberate and natural. Gil placed a hand on her hip, holding her down to the bed while he fumbled single-handedly with a condom. At least with Sara that hadn't been an issue either.

A few hours later Cath was laid with her head on Gil's shoulder. "Care to share?" His voice made her jump.
"How did you know I was awake?" she asked.
"I could hear the cogs in your head turning." He chuckled. "What's on your mind Cathy?" His only answer was a shrug. Like she was gonna tell him that. "You know, you've been very quiet lately, is everything ok?" she nodded. "Is Lindsey ok?"
"Yeah Gil, everything's fine. I'm just…I'm fine ok. Don't worry." She suspected that he knew she was hiding something but how was she supposed to tell him that she had slept with the girl he had had a thing for since day one. It was better for him to believe she was hiding something than for him to know she was a cheater. Right?
