Tears and Rain- A time to leave

Hey everyone! I'm slowly coming back. I recently seen my fan fiction "Battered, bruised, broken.. Alive" back up...

Well, there's.. reasons I took it down.

I felt as if, I wasn't doing well in my writing. I thought if I took it down, and revised it, finished it for good, then I could repost it. I DO miss my reviews though, but that's a risk you have to take, I guess.

So, if you were on the Alert list for Battered, Bruised, Broken.. Alive, its back up, just go under our account!

Anyways, onto this story. This is part 1 of 2 of my Leaving and Coming back stories. I've recently made up my mind on how I wanted to do this :)

So, here I am. Again. Hopefully around for a very long time.

The song used in this story is called Tears and Rain by James Blunt.

Check the song out, its worth it!

Onward story!

'How I wish, I could surrender my soul;

shed the clothes that become my skin;

see the liar that burns within my needing.'

-She looked into his office. He was doing paperwork again. Always doing paperwork.

She saw him look up, down, and back up, looking at her. He waved her in and turned back to his paperwork.

She sighed. She thought about talking to him.

She walked away.

Natalie, had changed her. Hannah, pissed her off.. And then changed her.

Those two people, made her think about what was going on in her life. She remembered being out under the car, with the rain falling, the mud gushing underneath her hand, her body.

She remembered her mother. She remembered her father. The fights. The yelling. The knife plunging into her fathers' chest from her mother's hand. The cast-off blood on the walls, on everything.

It haunted her still, since the day that she lost both of her parents. She lost her father to death, and her mother to prison for life.

She was used to lies. Her parents, lied. Her foster parents, lied. Everyone lied to her. Everyone said that it would all be fine. She could tell when someone was lying. The only person she knew that never lied to her, was Grissom.

And right now, he wasn't enough to help her bury her past. To bury the lies. To find the truth.

'How I wish, I'd chosen darkness from cold.

How I wish, I'd screamed out loud;

Instead I've found no meaning.'

She was tired. She was tired of being tired. They never talked anymore. Nobody ever really wanted to talk about what happened the night Natalie had taken her. She wanted to just scream out how dead and lonely she felt because of it.

Warrick, had his problems. He wasn't sleeping. She wanted to ask him what was wrong. To talk to him. But, she couldn't. She didn't think he'd want to bring anything up.

Gil, had work. All the time. They were on different shifts now anyways. She worked the days away, and he worked the nights away, as she lay there in their bed, alone, depressed, and missing him. Missing him holding her, protecting her. Instead, she had nightmare, after nightmare. Tear after tear.

Now, she could only take so much.

So, she got out the pen and the paper in her nightstand.

--

'I guess its time I run far, far away;

Find comfort in pain,

Oh pleasures the same;

It just keeps me from trouble.'

--

She wrote. She wrote her feelings. Her fears. And she wrote of what she had to do.

It'd be so hard, to do this. To say those words. The words she swore she'd never have to say.

Good bye.

It felt like.. forever. She didn't want to be doing what she had to do, forever. She wanted to be with him, for as long as time would allow.

But, in order for her to do so, she'd have to set out and bury what had happened to her life in the past. She had to bury her ghosts.

She sighed, wiped away her tears, and got an envelope out, and shut it. That letter, right now, was her enemy. She felt as if she was signing her death warrant. Because, without him, there was no her.

So, she had to suck up her pride, and whatever faith she had left, and.. leave. Leave to save them both.
