Sara knew she had to leave. Even if she thought it was the best thing she could do for them, there was a part of her which thought it was not fair. Many moments spent together were which gave her the option to think he didn't want this. He didn't want this kind of responsibility for them. Although she tried to deny the fact she could not change anything, these three months since she found out had been hell. She didn't think that an abortion was an option because she wanted this kid more than she can ever admit. She believed it could be magical, sweet and pure to have a baby with him, but as a matter of fact she knew he didn't believe the same.
FlashBack
She was lying in bed resting her head on his chest, just watching a movie. They'd been together for an entire year and there was something going through her mind very often. "Would you want to have kids?" she asked with hope in her voice. All the time they had spent together and yet she didn't know the answer.
"I don't think so. I don't need that kind of responsibility now in my life. Why? Would you want to have kids?" he asked worried. There was an expression on his face which she had never seen before. It was full with panic. Instead of answering, she turned to face the wall. It was the last time they talked about it.
End of FlasBack.
She had made up her mind now, she decided that the best thing she could do for them was moving to LA. Because if she stayed, she would not allow herself to see how the man she loves is refusing to have this baby, the baby she already loves. So she packed her things from their apartment and bought a passport to LA. She knew it would be hard to live in a different place where there were different customs.
She would hate to say goodbye to Nick and Greg. They grew closer with the passing of the time. She would miss them a lot. She would miss Greg's stupid comments; she would miss the support that Nick gave her. There were a lot of things that she would miss, but she needed to do this in order to win the respect that her baby and she deserved.
She panicked when she found out she was pregnant three months ago. A part of her was very afraid but the other part was extremely happy. She started to cry when she faced the reality that Grissom didn't want this for them. Or at least for him. But she would not give her baby away because he didn't want to have a real life. That was when she remembered how he was. She had to admit that she loved him, and she would not change any moment they spent to together for anything. She also had to remember that thanks to him she was now pregnant. He was her baby's father after all.
She sat on a bench in the middle of the airport waiting until her flight was announced. There were a lot of couples holding their kids and babies. There were some others alone. This was making her think which the life she really wanted for her was. The life of the people who were just walking alone? Or the life of the couples holding their kids?
She placed a hand on her still flat stomach and smiled. There was life inside of her. That was when she realized what she wanted. She wanted a family surrounded by love and happiness. Something she would not obtain if she stayed. If she stayed, she would obtain a family with a husband who didn't want to have kids. She would go to LA and go on.
It was hard to leave, knowing that the only man she has ever allowed herself to fall in love with was staying here. He had brought her happiness and joy that never knew that existed. Something different, something no-one had ever given her before. And she had given him something different as well. Something which changed him in a way no-one had ever done.
"This is the last call for flight number 123 with the destination to LA." A voice said. That was what brought her back to reality once again.
