A/N: I know this is shitty, no use denying, really couldnt get into this, but for some strange reason ideas are popping everywhere, just not for this chapter. Have any hints on how to make it better, all yours. By that I mean ideas. Dont own anything.

Greg and Sara stood staring at the two in amazement, neither had mentioned they knew the other, it had never been brought up so it wasn't a wonder why they didn't mention the other.

"You two know each other?" Sara's pissiness was wearing off, this was way much better

"We…" Kelly started

"Have History and it stays history" Nick left it at that and turned to head out.

"Nice to see you too, Nicky" Greg just had to put his two cents in

"How are ya Greggo?" seeing as how Greg had called him by a nickname he could do the same.

"Oh you know, amazing" he said to overly chipper, making Nick shake his head and the two girls looking in opposite directions.

"Glad to have you back Sara" Nick stated a little quieter than usual. Both Sara and Greg looked to Kelly for answers, and for once she didn't have any.

Greg held the Tahoe door open for Sara, she didn't say anything as she climbed in the back, now was not the time to argue about who was driving. Greg climbed in the other side leaving Kelly and Nick the front.

"How can Las Vegas Crime Lab be of service to you?" Gil Grissom asked, not an hour later as Greg and Kelly sat in his office, it felt weird being a guest in this lab.

"Just resources, anything you can think of Greg?" Kelly asked, attention was diverted to him.

"No none that I can think of" he replied.

"Well if you do just let me know" Grissom stood, file in hand, time was a wasting

"Sure thing"

Greg and Kelly situated everything they had brought into one of the evidences rooms, that wasn't being used.

"Let's run over the facts of what we have" Kelly started spreading the pictures out on the half the table, the evidence beside the picture it belonged to.

"We have the address book with the erased appointment" he put the picture in the middle of the table.

"We have to find out why it was erased" Kelly stared at the pictures

"Could the killer have done it?" Greg pondered the thought out loud.

"Why would the killer want to erase the appointment?" Kelly asked encouraging him

"It could tie it to him"

"So lets go pay a visit to Tony Parker himself"

"I'll drive" Greg told her as they headed out.

They were on their way to the hospital, after being informed from Mr. Parker's maid that he had been rushed to the hospital with chest pains.

"I'm sorry I wish I had more to tell you but I don't, the lecture was sold out, I'm not one for faces, she could have been with someone and I wouldn't have known"

They were at another dead end.

They rode the elevator down,

"Did that seem a little rehearsed to you?" Kelly asked him, she had a feeling they were being played.

"Who do you think he's covering for?"

"I think we need a copy of that guest list and compare who lives in Vegas that went" the elevator dinged, the doors opened and they stepped off.

"How many do we have?" Greg asked walking into the evidence room, he had left to update Grissom on the status.

"15"

"15?"

"15"

"Well only one, possibly two killed her, let the elimination begin"

He knew they would be here for a while.

"So how many can we officially eliminate?" Greg questioned some time later. His brain was tired, his eyes were tired, he was really tired. All the interviews took a toll on him.

"Offically? 8, they have nothing to do with anything, just there to help their business"

"So who do you think did it?" Greg wanted to fall asleep after a good long shower,

"I don't assume anything but my gut tells me there's something we're missing" Not this again. His eyes started drooping shut.

"What do you do when someone's late? You keep looking out the window closest to the driveway"

"So?"

"She was waiting for Shawn, he said she was in trouble"

"You believing your husband now?"

"Just let me go with this"

"Be my guest"

"Being a woman and being scared, you lock the door, shut the blinds, phone in hand. I'm thinking we run the guest lists names into the system see who pops up with assault" it was a long shot but it could work.

"Why assault?"

"She was beaten to death"

"This is very long shot"

"But its worth a try"

"Why are you doing this?" they had nothing, the case had grown cold.

"Because I have to try and save my marriage" she left him alone to gather the evidence.

"You look beat man" Warrick took a bit of his sugarless sandwich; soon he would be down to just the bread, whole wheat at that. Greg plopped down a chair, resting his arms on the table in a lazy manner.

"I'm working with the energizer bunny"

"Haven't had the chance to meet her yet" the sandwich was bland was bland could be, Warrick took another bite

"She's running on dead ends"

"If I had given up when I'd gotten dead ends, so many case would not be solved today" Warrick stated a fact

"So how do you think our Nicky knows Kelly?" Warrick said as he pushed the sandwich away, he'd rather go hungry than eat this. Changing the topic, it had suddenly become too serious.

"You're guess is as good as mine" Greg stood up to grab himself a cup of coffee.

"Care to make a little wager on who will tell us first?"

"No I wouldn't" Greg downed his coffee in one gulp. Throwing the cup in the garbage he left the room.

Which was a bad thing, the moment he stepped out the door he ran into Sara. He still wasn't sure if he was happy to run into or dreaded it. She smiled as she moved on by, no words were spoken. Something had changed he could feel it.
