A/N- this like my first fanfic so any tips would be cool(:

Disclaimer: CSI is not mine nor will it ever. Sniff. That wasn't so bad.

"Hey Griss? I'm heading out." Sara informed

A nod was all Sara received from Grissom who hadn't even lifted his head from his file. Sara lingered there for a few moments before quietly going on with her morning. It was times like these when she tried to remember the last time they actually shared a basic conversation together. Just as friends. She remembered the times they would sit on the beach together in California watching the sun rise, and today she's lucky if she see's him more than once a shift. Thoughts like these pondered her mind, but she put them aside to think of the good things she has going on now.

She now lived in a very comforting home with a husband, Jake, and two children: Taylor, who was five years old, and their beautiful baby girl Kelly. Sara though life for her couldn't get any better than it is now.

Just the thought of not having a broken home anymore was enough to make her smile. A smile that made a room light up.

She pulled in the driveway, and could see through the door Taylor occupying her baby sister with a rattle. Smiling greatly, she got out of the car and walked inside.

Kelly giggled as she saw her mom walk through the door.

"Hey baby girl. Mommy missed you today. You know that?" she said in her playful voice getting a great amount of laughs from her. Her older child looked hurt as her mom talked to the baby. that thing is always taking my place she thought "And I missed you too honey. Come here" said Sara, seeing her daughters passed over look. But Taylor merely ran upstairs.

"Jake?"

"Yea hon, I'm upstairs"

She put Kelly down and went to greet her loving husband. When she entered the bedroom, Jake slammed the door, stumbling a little, but managed to grab his wife.

"Where have you been?!"

"What? I'm only five minutes later than I usually am. Have you been drinking something? Baby what's wrong" she could smell it in his breath as he held his face to hers. Something wasn't right.

"Yea? Lateness is not tolerated in this house!"

"Jake I…"

SLAP

"SHUT UP! You worthless bitch!"

He threw her up against the wall and ran out the bedroom. She heard the slamming of the front door indicating he left. Small tears trickled down her face as the sting from the slap started to kick in. She looked in the mirror seeing a small bit of blood on her cheek. When has he ever gotten abusive? Alcohol?

Cries could now be heard from downstairs. Sara slowly got up drying her eyes so everything would look calm. She made a mental note reminding her self what she could tell the others.

But it won't happen again...Right?

Tbc... I know it's not very good. But reviews would be sweet.
