Usual disclaimer, don't own anything except the plot. The song does not belong to me either. It is "Black Roses Red" by Alana Grace.
Can You Turn My Black Roses Red?
An emotionally and physically exhausted Sara Sidle sat in her apartment, absorbed in her thoughts I guess some people just aren't meant to be together…
"That's it, I can't take it anymore." She said to herself.
Sara found herself in front of Grissom's office, with a bit of hesitation she knocked.
"Come in," he said from inside.
"Hey Griss, I need you to sign this", her voice quivering slightly handing him the sheet of paper.
"Leave of absence? What for?" he looked puzzled.
Why is she doing this again? She seemed fine with the way things were going here… Grissom thought, still confused
"Just sign it. Please" she replied, her tone sharp.
"Ok…" Grissom said as he signed it.
"Thanks,"
Good-Bye Grissom. I don't know when or if I will be back. You had your chance.
Sara sat once again her apartment, only this time starring down at the bags she had packed.
"I'm never coming back" tears began to fall down her face. She looked back to make sure she hadn't missed anything, and she walked out of her apartment and locked the door. After getting everything in the trunk of her SUV she sat in the front seat and turned on the radio.
Can I ask you a question please
Promise you won't laugh at me
Honestly I'm standing here
Afraid I'll be betrayed.
As twisted as it seems, I only fear love when it's in my dreams
So let the morning light come in and let the darkness fade awayCan you turn my black roses red?
Can you turn my black roses red?
At the Lab
"Hey, anyone know where Sara is?" Catherine asked,
The rest of the team was sitting in the break room; they had all wrapped up their cases that night and were waiting for what seemed like years for the clock's hands to move.
"I hear she took a leave of absence" Warrick replied
"Leave of absence? Why?" Greg questioned.
Everyone else shrugged, they hadn't heard much from Grissom or Sara all night.
At that moment a CSI stood up and ran out.
Constructive criticism is welcome!
