A/N: This is the story with the poem in it! Please give me some feedback:D and thnx for Mia-sara for beta-ing me! Thank you, hun! I wouldn't know what I should do without you..
Chapter 1
She was sick of it! He was ignoring her. She wasn't crazy. She didn't imagine all those signs he was giving her in the past. And now it was just like all of that never happened!She was really sick of it! She was going to leave Vegas.. How hard it would be. She was definitely leaving Vegas!
Now it was a week later and she was standing in his office doorway, only to see an empty chair in his office. She had known that he wasn't there. She'd actually counted on it, so she could leave something on his desk…a poem she once wrote for him.When she walked inside, she left two envelopes on his office - one with "Grissom" on it, and one with "Grissom, Warrick, Catherine, Greg and Nick" on it.When she walked out of his office, Greg spotted her.
He called to her, 'Hey Sara, snooping around in the boss' office? '
"Nah, only leaving a case file there. I'm going home now."
"Ok, I'll see ya next shift.. '
"Um…yeah. Bye '
She walked out of the building. She was going home to pack her suitcases and leave.

When Grissom arrived in his office, he immediately spotted the two envelopes on his desk.
He walked towards them, picking up the one with just his name on. He opened it, sat down in his chair and read the letter that was inside.
Dear Grissom,
I'm leaving Vegas tonight. This one is only for you because well, you must have noticed something more between us then only friendship. A while ago I wrote this poem and I thought…well, the poem says everything. There's also a form in here that explain about my resignation etc.
I will never forget you.
With love,
S.
Maybe
Could it? Maybe.
Or am I just imagining things
Maybe I'm just over-reacting
Or maybe I'm just crazy
But could it be that I'm, maybe,
Falling in love with you?
My mind keeps wondering towards you
Maybe it was the way you flirted
Or maybe it was because you made me feel special
But maybe you didn't mean it that way…
Or did you?
The last day we were together
I hoped that you felt the same way
That you would let me know
But nothing happened.
And I wonder
Maybe you just weren't interested
And I imagined all the signs you gave me.
Maybe I'll see you never again
But maybe in another time
In another place we'll be together.
Maybe that's the way it should be.
Maybe.
Grissom was shocked after he readed it.
"She's leaving Vegas…because of me? Because…I…No, I didn't want to hurt her…and she's never coming back…I can't."
He didn't know what to do. She was really gone now.. She would be on the plane, leaving Vegas…there was nothing he could do.. Nothing..
He picked the second envelope up.. He hoped that there would be something in it that it would say it was all a joke.. He opend it and began to read again.. Tears visible in his eyes..
Hey,
I guess you got this envelope from Grissom. I just want to tell you that I'm leaving Vegas tonight. I will miss you guys so much. You were there for me whenever I needed it. There was always someone to cheer me up.
Don't try to contact me, that just makes it too difficult. I love you all, and I will never forget you guys!
With love,
Sara
After he had read the second letter, Catherine walked inside his office, asking why he was late with handing out the assignments. She saw the tears in his eyes and she had also noticed that Sara wasn't in the break-room. She took a seat and spoke softly.
"What happened to her, Gil?"
"She's leaving Vegas…tonight. Because of me…" he said through all the tears that were running down his face.
Before Catherine could say anything, he asked her if she could hand out the assignments and give the second envelope to the guys. With that, he walked out of his office without looking back, straight out of the building, ready to go home and cry his broken heart out.
