Thanks guys. Wow. Okay, I've got this chapter and half of the next chapter written already, so the next update after this will probably be sooner than most of the others.
Chapter Four.
"Hi Mia," Sara said as she walked into the DNA lab. The DNA tech lifted her head up from a microscope.
"Hey. Is Grissom with you, Catherine was looking for him," Mia said.
"He was, he's in the layout room," Sara answered. Mia nodded. She paused, then decided to speak.
"I head you were in that car chase everyone's talking about," Mia said conversationally.
Sara squinted one eye, at first glance it would seem like a twitch, but really it was just a simple look that was questioning what Mia said. "People are talking about it?" Sara asked, with the slightest bit of excitement in her voice.
"Well yeah, I mean, Grissom saved your life," Mia said and smiled like a schoolgirl gossiping to her friend.
Sara froze, her mouth wide open.
A moment passed, then Sara finally spoke, even though it was only one word, "What?"
"Grissom. He saved you and the little girl from the burning car that exploded, right?" Mia asked, still smiling.
Sara blinked and glanced at the ground while mouthing the words as if to say 'Oh yeah'. She stared back at Mia for a brief moment before speaking again, "Yeah, I umm... guess he did," Sara said and nodded. She paused, "I... I should go." Then she was gone before Mia could say bye.

Minutes later, Sara walked into the layout room where Grissom was looking over every inch of Dani's clothes with a magnifying glass. Sara stood beside him, and waited for him to acknowledge her presence. He picked up a small hair from Dani's sweater with tweezers, and put it into a small paper evidence bag. He looked at Sara, and waited for her to speak.
She smiled, then pursed her lips. "People are talking about how you
saved me and
the little girl," she said.
Oh Sara, don't try to hide that you're flirting.
Grissom thought for a moment, "I suppose I did."
This made Sara smile.
"So where are we so far?" She asked, looking down at the clothes and going back into work-mode.
Gil also looked back down at the clothes. "Well, I'm just looking for any trace that might be on her clothes. Dr.Robbins called and told me the driver of the car still sad skin cells that weren't singed off in the fire, he sent it to DNA. COD was no mystery, gun-shot to the back of the head, the bullet matches a police issue, not surprising."
When he stopped talking, Sara figured that was her cue.
"So what should I do?" She asked, which was very unlike her.
Gil thought a moment, "The car is in the garage, see what you can find there."
Sara nodded, then left the room.
