A month had gone by since the attacks on Sara and Greg. Both of them had been cleared for duty and were excited and nervous at the same time.
"You ready for this?" Greg asked, squeezing her hand.
"Yeah, I think so," Sara replied.
"Let's do this, then," Greg said as they headed into the crime lab hand-in-hand.
"Hey you two, good to have you back," Judy the receptionist called.
"Thanks, it's good to be back," Sara said. After stopping in the locker room to drop off their personal belongings the two of them walked towards the break room.
"Hmm, I wonder why all the lights are off?" Greg queried.
"I don't know, why don't we open the door and find out?" she suggested. Reaching for the door she turned the knob, opening it.
"Surprise! Welcome back," cried the rest of the team. A banner that said "Welcome back Greg and Sara stretched the length of the room. A cake and a bowl of punch were sitting on the table.
"Wow," Greg exclaimed.
"Hey look everybody Greggo's speechless," Nick teased. Greg gave Nick a playful shove.
"Haha, very funny," Greg snarked back. A giggle escaped Sara's lips.
"Hey," Greg cried a mock hurt look on his face.
"I'm sorry, but I think it's funny," she defended while trying to contain her giggles. Greg pouted at her.
"Okay, fine then," he said as he pouted.
"Awww, I'm sorry," Sara soothed as she leaned in and placed a soft kiss on Greg's lips.
"It's okay you're forgiven," Greg whispered as he returned the kiss. A squeak from Catherine and a "Yeah pay up Nicky!" from Warrick drew their attention back to the other occupants in the room. They had momentarily forgotten about the rest of the team.
"What's going on?" Sara asked.
"I bet Nicky $20 that yall would be together by the time you came back to work," Warrick explained.
"Ah I see," she said as she laughed at Nick's crestfallen look.
"Sorry, Nick," she apologized.
"No worries, I'll win the next bet," he said confidently.
"Yeah right, keep on dreamin'," Warrick replied.
"This won't affect your work will it?" Grissom questioned. He was happy for his two team members but needed to make sure their productivity wouldn't be impacted.
"Nope, we'll be the most kick-ass crime fighting couple out their," Greg replied with a smirk. The corners of Grissom's mouth lifted in a smile.
"What Greg's trying to say is no our work won't be affected," Sara interjected.
"Yeah that's what I said," Greg declared. Everyone laughed Greg and Sara may not be the same as they were just a month ago, but with the love of each other and their team they would be okay.
Finished
A/n, sorry for the crappy ending, but I wasn't sure where to end this one.
