Author's Note: So I got a BUNCH of writing done today. Inspiration just hit and I was able to write a lot. I'm catching up!
Christmas Eve 2005
She couldn't believe it; she just couldn't.
After years and years of working Christmas, Sara Sidle had finally taken the holidays off. And not in favor of catching up on journal articles or writing up an article. She actually decided to stay at home and enjoy the holiday.
With Gil Grissom.
It was hard to believe they were celebrating their first holiday as a couple. But here she sat in his townhouse, sipping mulled apple cider with the lights blinking on the small Christmas tree.
It was going to be the first warm holiday memory she'd had on a long time.
Grissom came out of the bedroom to join her, and Sara couldn't help but grin at his lounge pants: Snoopy wearing a Santa cap.
"So what would you like to do?" he asked. "Read? Watch a movie?"
"A movie sounds nice."
"Any requests? The A Christmas Story marathon or National Lampoon's Christmas or White Christmas? Or I have Die Hard."
She snorted. "Die Hard is not a Christmas movie."
Grissom merely blinked. "It takes place at a holiday party; there's a Christmas tree. Thus, a holiday movie."
Shaking her head, Sara rolled her eyes. "Tempting, but I thought we could watch something I brought."
She dug in her purse for a moment, before pulling out a DVD case. Shyly, she handed it to him.
"Christmas Eve on Sesame Street?" He said confusingly.
Sara could feel her cheeks start to heat up. "I know it's a kids' movie, but I absolutely love it. I've watched it every Christmas Eve, even when I was working. It's cute and sweet and it's my only Christmas tradition so don't judge!"
Holding his hands up in surrender, Grissom took a step. "Hey,, I didn't say anything. But if you want Sesame Street, we'll watch it."
Grinning, Sara settled back on the couch as he set up the movie. When he joined her, she smacked a kiss on his cheek before snuggling into him. "Thank you."
He smiled, returning the kiss. "You're welcome, honey." A few minutes later, as the character stared singing the opening song, Grissom whispered, "But we can watch Die Hard after this, right?"
