Okay here is my first attempt on this forum. I hope you enjoy it. All writing and mistakes are mine. I don't own anything regarding CSI or anything else for that matter. So suing would be futile.
She was just an illusion,
A vision unreal,
A part of the universe,
I tried desperately to feel.

I walked into that conference hall and knew that something was in the air. All of my senses were on overload and I couldn't figure out why. I sauntered through the room like a cat on the prowl. Why was I acting like this? I felt like a teenager. And then it happened. A thunderbolt sounded and the lightning struck me. There she was. A vision of loveliness. Standing there talking to him. Who was she? And who was she talking to so adamantly.
I was captivated instantly. By her smile. Her eyes. Her presence. I wanted to walk over to her, but my feet were firmly planted. I couldn't stop staring. People were bumping into me, but I didn't care.
I was afraid to blink. Maybe she would disappear if I did. Hold it together, I warned myself. And then as if the gods were smiling down on me, she turned and our eyes met. I couldn't breathe. I felt the room spinning.
She smiled. Oh God, she was smiling at me. What do I do now? Do I go up to her? Do I dare to talk to this beautiful creature?
I didn't have long to wait for an answer. Without breaking the gaze, she started walking towards me. She came up close to me so that I could smell her perfume. Lavender and vanilla. Oh I will never forget that smell. And then she spoke. It was the sweetest sound I have ever heard.
"I saw you staring at me."
"I...I...I.." were the only words that would come out of my mouth.
"It's okay. I saw you when you walked into the room. You have lovely blue eyes."
"I'm Gil.." She shushed me with her finger.
"No names," she said whispering in my ear. Her breath on my neck was enticing. She moved her lips ever so close to mine. They brushed gently. Were we in a crowded room? I couldn't tell. I didn't care. I moved in closer to her. Lips upon lips. We were swaying to our own music.
Suddenly she broke away from me. She smiled and started to walk away.
"Wait," I said holding on to her hand. She gave me a look that sent shivers down my spine. She released herself from my grasp and walked away. I stared at the spot where she had been. Was she just a vision? An illusion? I lifted my hand to touch my lips and felt something in it. I held it up.
It was a room key...
