WHAT ELSE COULD GO WRONG?
Chapter1
Author: Sandersgirl
Coughing, sneezing, sweating and chilling, and of course no sleep. That have been Greg's night.
He was in his bed buried under all the covers he could find. He rolled over to see the alarm clock: 7 am. He growled. He had called Grissom twelve hours ago telling him that he was too sick to go to work and hoping that he could he some sleep, but he didn't.
He got up, wrap himself in a cover the best he could and walked to the kitchen. He had a headache and needed an aspirin. He found the bottle, but it was empty.
-"Oh shit!"
He got dressed. Jeans, sneakers, a sweater and a warm jacket, and he went shopping.
As soon as he got out of his apartment building he stept on something soft. He cursed under his breath when he saw the sticky brownish substance stuck on his left foot.
What else could go wrong , he thought.
Then, as an answer to his question, a lighting flashed across the grey sky and a thunder was heard. Then it started raining.
Greg covered himseld with his jacket and run to the 7-11, cursing all the way.
When he entered the store, soaking wet, he noticed that there were just another three people: a woman with his daughter and another man. At least it won't take long", he thought.
The shopkeeper looked at Greg up and down.
-"Is it raining?"
He got to be kidding me. Greg rolled his eyes. The shopkeeper didn't seem too satisfied with the answer, but Greg ignored him. He made his way to the pharmacy shelves, and he was trynig to decide if he should ot not buy the giant bottle of aspirin when he heard the store's door opening.
He looked at the door and had to take another look because he couldn't believe what he saw. It was Sara.
Sara? What is Sara SIdle doing here? In my neighborhood? Just a few blocks from my apartment?
He took one of the pocket mirrors from the cosmetics shelf and checked himself. Red nose, teary eyes, and the worst thing: flat hair.
-"Greg?"
He hide the mirror behind a bottle of vitamines and looked at Sara, trying to look surprise.
-"Sara!"
-"Grissom told me that you were sick and I thought it was an excuse, but you look horrible", she said looking at him, "shouldn't you be in bed?"
-"Thanks for the compliment, but I run out of aspirins", he replied, showing her the bottle.
She nodded.
-"What about you?"
Sara was about to reply when three armed men stormed into the store.
-"Nobody moves and nobody gets hurt!"
What do you think? Should I continue? Please, r&r! ;-)
