Sara woke before her alarm clock. As usual. Giving it a quick glance she saw that it was only 6.45pm. Nearly 2 hours until she had to be at work. Swinging her feet over the side of the bed she headed to the kitchen. That was ok because she needed to go grocery shopping anyway she thought as she emptied the last of the coffee grounds into a filter. She went through her morning routine all the while making a list in her head. Coffee, shampoo, toothpaste. Returning to the kitchen she poured herself a cup of coffee and swore as she realised she was out of suger. She REALLY needed to go grocery shopping. On her way out the door she added light bulbs to her list. The hall light had been out for the last month. It wasnt like she spent alot of time in the apartment anyways and when she did she was asleep.
********************
Sara took her time at the grocery store scanning each isle for the things she needed and thinking about how much frendlier these little neighborhood stores where compared to the big supermarkets. Spying something she had forgoten on the shelf, she absentmindedly tossed it in the cart. Her life had been so complicated lately and that made her apriciate the simple things so much more. Grissom loved her. That was old news, but would he ever do anything about it? What had he meant, "I couldn't?" Two little words that could be interpreted so many different ways. Did it mean he would never be able to or did it mean he couldn't then but could now?
Returning her mind to the here and now she contemplated several different brands of coffee wondering what the difference was between french vanilla and normal vanilla? she gave up on trying to figure it out and grabbed the original. she'd never understand this designer coffee craze. She passed right by the milk it was always going sour on her anyways.
Done with her shopping Sara turned the corner and headed towards the single check out stand. Searching through her purse she realised that her wallet was at home on the bedside table. DAMMIT!! It would only take 10 minutes to run home and get it but still! Sara was so wrapped up in her own thoughts that she didn't even see the man with the gun until he pointed it at her. She watched in slow motion as he pulled the trigger and ran out of the store with the money. Her last thought as she sunk to the floor was how much friendlier these little neighborhood stores where.
The store owner franticaly called 911 before running over to Sara to try and stop the bleeding.

Grissom walked into the break room where the night shift was gathered. Not looking up from the papers in his hand he started handing out assignments.
"ok Nick you and Catherine are coming with me. We have a DB. The Luxor, suite 219."
"Warrick you and Sara have a robbery/shooting. The vic, a jane doe, was rushed to the hospital....."
Interupting Grissom, Warrick spoke.
"Uh Griss, Sara isn't here."
Looking up from his papers for the first time Grissom glanced around with a puzzled look on his face as if he expected Sara to be hiding in a corner.
"Well where is she? This isn't her day off"
He said while going over the schedule in his head, Sara had never been late or missed a day of work. So where was she?
"I'll go try and get ahold of her. Catherine you and Nick take the DB at the Luxor" he said handing them the slip.
"Warrick you get over to the robbery and I'll meet you there in a few minutes if i can't find Sara." absentmindedly he started out the door of the breakroom and stopped when he realised he was still holding the information for Warricks case. He turned around and handed the slip to Warrick before continuing out the door with a worried look on his face.
