Dates to remember
Chapter 4
“Hey Sara, you got a minute?” Grissom asked walking into the evidence room where Sara was looking over some evidence from her latest case.
“Yeh sure”
“Just wondering if we are still on for tomorrow night” Grissom lowered his voice so only Sara could hear him.
Sara looked at him, and noticed he was nervous, He must think I was going to stand him up she thought.
“Yeah, I got a dress this afternoon”
“Good, I have to get going to a meeting, ill pick you up about 7 tomorrow night”
“Okay” Sara smiled, squeezing Grissom’s hand that was resting on the back of her chair.
“See you later” with that Grissom left Sara to think about how excited she was about the date.

Saturday seemed to go really slow for both Grissom and Sara, as their was both off work, Grissom decided to get up to date on his paperwork to pass the time away, were Sara decided to clean.
Finally the time came for Sara to get change, she took the dress she has just bought, and placed it on the bed, then took a long relaxing bath.
Grissom on the other hand was sat in his home office, signing his name on the paperwork, with his mind fully on Sara.
I wonder what kind of dress she got, I hope this date goes to plan, I really want to officially start our relationship and how’s that going to happen if I cant kiss her goodnight at the end of our date!
Grissom looked over at the clock in his study and saw it was 6,oclock, leaving his paperwork spread out all over his desk, Grissom headed for the shower.

It was now 6.55pm and Sara was finally ready after slipping into her dress, straightening her brown locks, and putting on a little mascara and lip-gloss. She was patiently sat on her couch waiting for Grissom to turn up; she didn’t have to wait long, because as soon as her clock struck 7, a knock came at the door.
“Hey” Sara smiled opening the door to a very sexy Grissom.
Grissom was dressed in a black tux with a white shirt underneath, and was cleanly shaven.
Grissom didn’t hear Sara because as soon as he saw what she was wearing, all he could think about was how beautiful she looked.
Sara had a ankle length emerald green, strap dress on, with matching silver shoes, and a butterfly silver necklace, encrusted with Green and clear gems.
“You look beautiful,” Grissom said with a big smile across his face.
“Thank you” Sara gave him a little twirl before saying “And you look so hot in that tux”
“Thank you, shall we” Grissom offered his hand to Sara and lead her to his Tahoe.
“So where we heading?” Sara asked after several minutes of silence.
“There’s a new restaurant opened last week, I thought I would take you there”
“Sounds good to me”
-- -- --
Grissom and Sara arrived at the swank restaurant and Grissom helped Sara out of the car, and gave his keys to the chauffer, Sara linked her arm with Grissom and both walked into the restaurant.
The restaurant was dimly lit, they was candles flickering on all of the tables, clinking of wine glasses could be heard with the sound of mellow music, and small conversations.
“Reservation?” the waiter asked.
“Grissom”
“Okay, come this way” with that Grissom and Sara followed the waiter to a table near the back of the restaurant.
“Someone will be by shortly to take your order”
“Thank you” Grissom smiled before turning to the beautiful woman in front of him.
“Have I told you, you look lovely tonight?”
“Yep” Sara grinned blushing slightly.
“Well I would just like to remind you” Grissom winked.
“Well stop it or ill end up looking like a tomato”
“A very cute tomato” Grissom added before handing Sara a menu and looking at his.
Sara giggled a little before looking at her menu.
“So did you finish your case?” Grissom asked from over his menu.
“Grissom I know you really don’t want to talk to me about the latest case, come on can we have one chat that doesn’t revolve about work” Sara replied, placing her menu down and reaching over for Grissom hand which he gladly gave.
“Okay then, how about what have you been doing today?”
“Absolutely nothing, to be honest I cleaned my apartment, just to pass the time away as I was too excited about this date to just sit around”
“Really, I did some paperwork to pass the time away too, because also I was too excited to sit around”
He was exited too, wow so he must have really figured out what to do about us, damn he looks so hot in that tux. Sara’s thoughts got interrupted when the waitress came for their order.
After ordering Grissom took hold of Sara’s hand and started to draw a circle with his thumb.
“Im so glad Im not too late” Grissom said softly.
“Gil, you will never be too late” With Sara saying that Grissom lifted her hand to his lips and placed a soft kiss on Sara’s knuckles causing her to blush.
“I remember the first time I saw you” Grissom smiled still holding Sara’s hand.
“At the forensic academy conference”
“Nope”
“What? That’s when I first laid eyes on you” Sara said with a confused look.
“Yes maybe that’s when you first saw me, but that’s not the first time I saw you” Grissom chuckled at how confused Sara was.
“Wine sir?” the waitress interrupted pouring some wine into Sara and Grissoms glasses.
“When was the first time you saw me?” Sara asked after the waitress had gone, and taking a sip of her wine.
“It was 2 hours before the conference and I realized I forgot one of my entomology books I needed, so I checked in the library to see if they had it, and that’s when I saw you, you nose deep in a book, it was a book on anthropology”
“Wow, you actually remember what book I was reading you must have been taking a lot of notice” Sara was blushing now.
“Well you was the only person in there, and you looked cute sat their reading a book, and if a bomb had went off I don’t think you would have noticed” Grissom paused to take a sip of his wine before continuing “When i saw you in the lecture hall 30 minutes before the lecture started I knew I had my hands full”
Is he actually opening up to me wow, he is serious about this isn’t he. "Your order sir” the waitress again pulled Sara back to the present.
“Would you like anything else sir?”
“No thank you” Grissom replied before turning back to Sara, who had now started to talk.
“I remember when I fist saw you, the first thing I saw was how a lovely shade of blue your eyes was, for some reason I couldn’t help but look” Sara started to blush at the thought of sharing this with Grissom. “I did hear that you was a dull speaker, but I don’t think that’s true, I truly enjoyed the lecture”
“I agree you did, afterwards you couldn’t stop asking questions, the thought I had was I have met my match intellectually” Grissom said in-between mouthfuls of food.
After several minutes of silence where Grissom was just watching the way Sara was eating, thinking she looked so cute, putting her hand over her mouth when she was chewing.
“Gil, why you staring at me?” Sara asked.
“Im glad you have given me another chance, I am infact really enjoying myself on these dates with you” Grissom replied.
“Me too”
After finishing their food, Grissom picked up his glass, which was topped up, and said “How about a toast, to us and the future of us” Sara clinked her glass against his before downing the rest of the contents then grinning widely at Grissom.
“Was it something I said” Grissom asked a little confused.
“Its just, I have never imagined you actually saying that, to us, im really happy now”
“I will do anything to make you happy”
“You know what will make me happy, if you walk me home, it’s only a few blocks form here”
“Okay then Miss Sidle” Grissom grinned before calling over to a waitress for the bill.
After paying the bill and leaving a hefty tip, because Sara had asked him too, Grissom and Sara was walking to her house, it was a chilly night and Sara was getting cold, Grissom must have sensed this as he took his jacket of and placed it around Saras shoulders before wrapping an arm around her waist.
Sara loved this; she felt she could die now happily, so she entwined her fingers with Grissoms that was wrapped around her waist.
The walk to her apartment was in a comfortable silence, no words were needed as actions told them everything.
-- --
“Thank you” Sara said after standing at her apartment door, for the last 5 minutes staring into each other’s eyes “I really enjoyed myself”
“I did too Sara, I don’t think I have had so much fun” Grissom replied, whilst bringing his hand up to Saras cheek and started to caress it.
Is he coming closer to me, I think he’s going to kiss me…
Saras thought got cut of with Grissom mouth on hers, it was a gentle kiss, Sara always imagined this as their first kiss, but for some reason this was better, much better.
After realising what was happening Sara wrapped her arms around Grissom’s neck and he wrapped his arms around her waist to bring her closer to him.
The kiss lasted what seemed forever to Grissom and Sara but in reality only a few seconds, until they both had to part for air.
Grissom was speechless he couldn’t think of anything, only how Sara had tasted and the texture of her mouth, it was the same with Sara, no thoughts just the memory of their first kiss.
“Would you like to come in?” Sara asked after her breathing had returned to normal, she still had her arms wrapped around his neck and his wrapped around her waist, and Sara was finding it hard not to kiss him again.
It must have been the same for Grissom because as soon as Sara asked the question Grissom lips came crashing down on hers once more.
This kiss wasn’t as gentle as the first; it had more passion and heat.
Parting for air, the second time that night, Sara fumbled with the lock of her door before opening it and letting Grissom inside.
Yes, this was the perfect date, I have always imagined, nothing went wrong and I don’t think I could get enough of those soft soft lips of hers.
With that last thought Grissom drew Sara to him again causing her to squeal before his lips met hers once more.
