This is my first multi-chapter story. It is set pre canon, but there is no specific time that it is set in. There are some little spoiler bits here and there, but they are not necessarily in order. That's cos that's how I felt like doing it. Thanks for reading and please review. I still don't have a beta, so any mistakes are mine and I'm proud of them.
I suppose I should add that I don't own CSI or anything to do with it, so I did.
A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING.
PROLOGUE
It was amazing how everything had come together in such a short space of time.
From the moment she received the offer from the FBI, everything had fallen into place.
First the FBI did her interview over the net and phone.
Then her brother had come for an unexpected visit and had been only too happy to help her pack up her apartment.
The lab hadn't been a problem either; Carvallo had accepted her resignation without enthusiasm but had understood and had been only too happy to allow her two weeks of her vacation time in lieu of notice.
But lastly, what had made it seem as if fate had taken a hand, Grissom was away for two weeks at a conference and was not there when she resigned.
Now as her flight neared its destination, Sara knew this had been the right choice.
Painful as it was to leave Las Vegas and those she had felt were her family, she knew that for her life to go forward it was something she had to do. She had to break the invisible hold that Grissom had over her.
As she fastened her seatbelt in preparation for landing she took a couple of deep breaths, both to ease the pain when she thought of her former boss and mentor, the man she had loved for years and to still the nerves she felt at the thought of starting again.
