Chapter 1

She thought all of her tears had been shed. As if on cue, the doorbell rang and as she opened the door to see who it was, the tears seemed to come back full force. "Gil…" Her husband was standing there and she couldn't find the words she had played over and over in head for when an occasion like this would arise. Her insides were in a turmoil of emotions, like one of his favorite rollarcoasters. They must of been standing there for what seemed like hours, but in reality, was only like a minute or so. "Can I come in?" Sara thought this over and said, "I don't think that would be the best thing right now Gil…" He could see the pain and hurt she was trying so desperately to conceal, but she could never hide what she was truly feeling from him. They had an uncanny ability to be able to read each other when others couldn't. "I'm worried about you", Grissom tried to caress her arm but she jerked her arm out of reach and in true Sara fashion crossed her arms and said, "I'm Fine." Seeing that Sara was attempting to put up the walls he had spent so many years tearing down, he pushed her into talking to him like he did after the Nesting Dolls case several years ago and just like then she said, "let it go." As Sara was saying this she walked past him into the cold night air trying to gain some space from the memories that were flooding her mind. She could no longer hold the tears back and as she was heading towards an unknown destination she could hear footsteps behind her letting her know that Grissom was following her. "Sara, Stop!" If she hadn't have been drinking before her husband decided to drop in on her unexpectedly she probably would have noticed that she was no longer on the side walk and she was now in the direct line of a car coming towards her. Hearing Grissom calling her, she turned around and stood frozen when she saw the car coming her way...she could hear her heart beating a million miles a minute and Grissom running like mad to catch up to her. The next few seconds seemed to move in slow motion as Grissom pushed her out of the way and got hit by the car going 80 mph.

Please review. If I get at least 5, I'll post chapter 2. :)
