A/N: This is slight sequel to Online Connection...The song Sara sings is ANGEL EYES by the Jeff Healy Band (R.I.P. Jeff).

It was a Saturday Night and shift was over so the Grissom and his team were in the locker room thinking about something to do because none of them really wanted to go home and they were kicking around ideas of what to do, "Hey how about we go to that new place off the strip...Sound Machine I think it's called," Greg interjected into the conversation.

"Oh yea I've heard of that place, alot of unknown bands go there to make demo tapes and do it in front of a live audience to see what kind of response they would get," Nick says.

With sounds of agreement being heard the team gets ready to head out, "Did I forget to mention they also have a monthly karaoke night which just happens to be tonight."

"Greg you know those places are embarrassing, not only for the people singing but also for the poor people who have to listen to the singers most of which I'm sure sound like cats fighting over a can of tuna."

"Well Cath, you never know someone just might surprise you."

"Sara are you saying you are willing to go to one of those places and sit there for a couple of hours?"

"Sure, why not?"

Catherine walks up to Sara and whispers, "Because I had other plans for us tonight," Catherine said this because no one other than Greg still knew the two of them were dating.

"Aww come on Catherine, it might be fun...and one never knows what surprises lie in store at a place like that." Greg says cryptically, because unbeknowst to anyone including Catherine, Sara and Greg cooked up a plan for Sara to sing about how she feels about Catherine but this way the lab could find out too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ten minutes later the team is inside Sound Machine and finds a table, as Rick explained it "this way we can look and see who we are making fun of but they can't see us."

An hour and two pitchers of beer later, Sara decides that it's time to put her and Greg's plan into action so she excuses herself and heads in the direction of the Ladies Room, but after about fifteen minutes she has yet to return, "I wonder why Sara is taking so long in the rest room, I'm going to go look for her," Catherine says in a worried tone.

"Don't worry Catherine I'm sure she's fine." Greg tries to reassure her.

Just as Greg is getting Catherine to sit back down at the table, the emcee makes an announcement, "Our next karaoke participant this evening is Sara Sidle, let's all give her a round of applause."

All eyes look at the stage and see Sara standing at the microphone, "This goes out to someone that I thought I would never find...This is for you Catherine, My Love."

The other CSIs just stare between the stage and Catherine who is sitting in shock with tears in her eyes as the music starts

Girl you're looking fine tonight, and every guy has got you in his sights, What you're doing with a clown like me is surely one of life's, little mysteries

So tonight I'll ask the stars above,  How did I ever win your love, what did I do, what did I say to turn your angel eyes my way

Well I'm the guy who never learned to dance, never even got one second glance.  Across a crowded room was close enough, I could look but I could never touch

So tonight I'll ask the stars above, how did I ever win your love, what did I do, what did I say to turn your angel eyes my way

Don't anyone wake me, if it's just a dream, Cause she the best thing, ever happend to me, All you fellows call look all you like, but this girl you see, she's leavin' here with me tonight

There's just one more thing that I need to know, if this is love why does it scare me so?  It must be somethin only you can see, 'cause girl I feel it when you look at me

So tonight I'll ask the stars above, how did I ever win your love, what did I do, what did I say to turn your angel eyes my way hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah, awww

After Sara finished she went over to the table and saw the tears streaming down Catherine's face, worried if she was alright she grabbed hold of Catherine and whispered, "Sweetheart are you okay?"

"Oh honey I'm fine, that was the greatest declaration of love anyone ever gave me, Thank you Sara," she then kisses Sara without caring about what's happening around them.

"So you two are dating as in being in love with each other?"

Catherine answered without taking her eyes off Sara, "Yes Rick we are, she is all I could have ever asked for in someone to love."
