Chapter Two - Five O'Clock Sharp


It was time for Sara to wake up and head to work for another shift. She took a shower and got dressed. Just as she was about to leave her apartment her phone rang. She got really irritated and stomped over to her phone.

"Hello" Sara said. She checked her watch and she was now going to be late for work.

"Hey Sara, thank god I caught you before you left for work. My Tahoe broke down last night and I need a ride to work. Do you think you could come pick me up?" Catherine asked.

"Sure Cath I'll be there in a few, bye-bye" Sara said and hung up. She left her apartment and drove to Catherine's house.

Once the girls reached the CSI Headquarters they saw that everyone was already there. They walked at a fast pace to the locker rooms freshing up before they headed into the breakroom to be awarded their assignments for the evening.

"I feel like I'm back in high school again" Catherine as she stuffed her stuff in the locker.

"Yeah, you would think with all the high-tech stuff we have in the building we could at least have something better then a locker each" Sara replied as she slammed her locker door shut.

Catherine nodded her head in approval and they left the locker room and walked the short distance to the break room to receive their cases for the shift. Everyone, except for Grissom was already there. It was typical of him to be late. A few minutes later Grissom strolled into the break room. He took a seat and everyone stared at him waiting patently for their assignments.

"Okay Catherine, you Sara and I have a double homicide and Warrick you and Nick have a robbery homicide, and please guys work together tonight." Grissom said while he gave them the slips.

"Oh before anyone leaves, come to my house at 5 O'clock sharp I have a party set up at my house, I think we all need to do something fun and well my parties are always fun" Catherine announced to the gang.

"Sweet, I'll be there, do you want me to bring anything?" Nick asked.

"Bring what ever you want, oh and tell Greggo to he's invited. You guys and girl game"

They all nodded their heads in approval, well except for Grissom.

"What's the matter this time Grissom?" Warrick asked.

"It's just that-" Grissom started to say but then go interrupted by Catherine.

"What are you chickening out?" Catherine asked and started to gobble like a chicken.

"Actually Turkey's gobble and no I'm not chickening out" Grissom corrected.

"Good then you'll be there tonight then right?" Sara said.

"Yeah, I guess so" Grissom whispered and they all smiled.

"That's the spirit Griss, now we better go to our cases so we don't have to stay past shift" Warrick said and him and Nick left the break room followed by Sara, Catherine and Grissom.

Once shift was over Sara drove Catherine back to her house since her car was still in the shop. Sara had no need to go back to her apartment so she stayed and helped Catherine decorate. This would be one party they will never forget.
