WHO: Grissom and Sara
WHAT: Destination: NYC
WHERE: Starting at Sara's apartment, going through to arrival at NYC hotel
WHEN: Around 7 AM.

Grissom pulled his state issued Denali in front of Sara's apartment at 7 AM on the dot. They had agreed that, even though their flight was at 11 AM, leaving at 7 would allow them plenty of time to get through the rigorous check points. Grissom put the car in park and sat for a moment, lost in his own mind.

When he had been offered the teaching seminar in New York City, he had not thought for a second to turn it down. Bugs and bodies in the urban setting. That was the title of his lecture. Slightly trite and odd, he thought, but then again it was about what he was lecturing on and not the title of his lecture.

Ecklie had been more then eager to allow Grissom the trip. He had even told Grissom that he would count the lecture towards career credit hours, even though Grissom needed none. And then Ecklie had told him that one of his staff needed to accompany him so they could catch up on their hours. Grissom immediately thought of Greg or Nick or even Catherine, running through his mind to try and figure out the last time any of them had taken a class. He could recall that they were all caught up. Before he had a chance to think any further, Ecklie had dropped the bombshell.

Sara Sidle was to accompany him and assit him in any wya he needed. Grissom huffed slightly but realized his fate would not be changing. Instead he left Ecklie's office trying to figure out just how he was going to deal with her. It was easy to avoid her at the lab, and it was easy to hide his feelings at the lab. But when he had to be with her for over a month? He knew that neither of them had friends there, so they would only know one another. Social, professional, and every interaction would be together. Everything. Together.

Grissom barely realized he was knocking on Sara's door until the sharp rap of the wood against his knuckle jolted him from his thoughts. Clearing his throat, he slid his hands in his pockets and waited for her to answer.
