All We Are

"Alright guys, y'all have a safe trip. And don't forget to call." Nick called from his front porch, keeping a close eye on his two friends.

Sara turned and gave him her lopsided smile and a quick wave. Greg was walking slowly behind her, only holding up a hand to show he had heard. Nick frowned, noticing the tension between his friends.

After they came home from his sisters house two nights ago, Sara had locked herself in her room and refused to come out. When he asked Greg he gave a simple shrug and moped on the couch.

The last two days were spent in awkward silence, Sara avoiding Greg as well as she could. Nick was becoming stressed, attempting to figure out what was going on without upsetting them.

Sara refused to talk about, putting on a smile and insisting she was alright. Greg only told him he didn't know what was going on. By day two Nick was ready to give up.

Now he was watching them drive away, alone with each other for the first time since their fight began. Greg was driving, fingers tapping on the steering wheel while his head bobbed to the music.

Sara was staring out the window, snapping a few more pictures of the scenery, trying to ignore the thump of Gregs hands and the blaring radio.

"Sar," Greg said, turning the stereo down slightly. He never took his eyes off the road, wanting to avoid her gaze. She froze, not sure what he was about to say.

"Yeah Greg." he took in a breath, tightening his grip on the wheel.

"Can we talk, when we get home? There are a couple things I need to say, it would mean alot of you'd listen." silently Sara nodded, dropping her gaze to look at her lap. With a glimmer of hope fluttering inside of him Greg drove the rest of the way in silence.

The flight went smoothly, both of them attempting to make small talk on occasion. They hauled their luggage to Gregs car, slipping inside and fidgeting in the silence.

"So, my house or yours." he asked. Her head shot up and he quickly raised a hand in defense.

"I meant so we could talk." he said quickly. He saw her visibly relax as she played with the hem of her shirt.

"Yours." she said quietly, leaning her forehead against the cool window. He turned up the radio before pulling into the busy day time traffic.

Pulling into Saras parking lot he turned off the car and climbed out, noticing how Sara was hesitating.

"Come on Sara. I'll be done and then you can go back to ignoring me." he snapped, regretting it almost instantly. But Sara made no comment, she slowly got out of the car and pushed past him with her suitcase in hand. Letting out a frustrated sigh he followed her into her house.

"Sara come on. I'm sorry." he said, throwing his hands up for effect.

"I heard you Greg!" she snapped at him.

"Well you could at least acknowledge me then!" the argument was quickly becoming heated and Sara was dangerously close to the edge.

"Just say what you have to say Greg." she collapsed onto her couch, shooting him a look.

"Alright then." he took a seat beside her.

"I'm sorry if that kiss made you uncomfortable. I thought it's what you wanted." Sara raised an eyebrow and sat up straight.

"What made you think I wanted it." Greg opened his mouth and stuttered slightly. Sara held up a hand and giggled slightly.

"I'm teasing Greg." she paused for a moment and pushed away a stray curl with her fingers.

"I know it seemed like I wanted it, and maybe I did. But I guess after Grissom I'm just trying to be a little more careful." she said. Greg nodded slowly, smiling slightly when she rested her head against his shoulder.

"So we're still friends?" he asked, brushing her hair aside and tilting her chin up towards him.

"Always."
