Chapter 1

Sara had just sitting in the break room looking over the files on a case she was working. It was turning day light and the sun was beaming through windows directly on the table were Sara was working. Sara got up from her chair a shut the shades that way she wouldn't be blinded by the light. She continued to stare at the files for another half an hour until she began to get sleepy before she knew it, she was asleep.

"Sara?" she heard a voice whisper in her ear. Her eyes fluttered open to see the face of Nick Stokes standing over her.

"Good morning, Sunshine!" Nick said.

"Shut up Nicky," Sara said playfully.

"Oh fine, next time I'll just let you sleep through day shift."

Sara smiled and rolled her eyes at Nick as she gathered the case files up in her arms.

Sara placed the case files back into their secure place and headed down the hall way to Grissom's office. She reached his office and looked through the window. There sat her boyfriend of the past 7 months. He was sitting at his desk reading over a case he had been working. She knew that something had him puzzled because he was scratching his beard, he always did this when ever something had him stumped. She smiled as she watched him tap his pencil on his desk. She then knocked on the door.

"Come in" Grissom said in a frustrated voice.

"Hey honey" Sara said as she opened up the door.

"Oh hey Sara"

"Are you ready to go home?" She asked a she stood in front of his desk.

"Yeah" Grissom told his girlfriend as he closed his case file.

Grissom got up from his chair and was following his girlfriend out of the office when he heard the phone ring.

Grissom was hesitant about answering, because he was ready to go home and wasn't prepared to work a double shift. He finally decided to answer just in case it was something that couldn't wait.

Sara watched Grissom talk on the phone, and the way he was talking it didn't sound like a new case.

"I'll have to get back to you on that…okay thanks Dr. Walker." With that Grissom hung up the phone.

"What was that about?" Sara asked.

"We'll talk about it when we get home." Grissom said as he took Sara's hand and they headed towards the parking lot.

The car ride home was silent. Grissom stared continually at the road as he rubbed the back of Sara's hand with his thumb. He was thinking hard about something but Sara couldn't figure out what it was.

"Grissom are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, I just have something on my mind." Grissom told her as he looked at her and gave her a smile.

Later that afternoon Grissom and Sara were lying in bed facing each other.

"Grissom, tell me what has been on your mind." She said as she entwined her fingers with Grissom's.

"Well I got a call from Dr. Walker from the University of Massachusetts and he wants me to come and teach a class in entomology for a semester, but I wanted to talk it over with you before I gave him an answer. What do you think Sara?"

"I don't know Grissom, I mean if you want to do it, I guess I can't stop you."

"You're fine with it?"

"Yeah, as long as it makes you happy, but I'm going to miss you."

"I'm going to miss you too, Sara." He told her as he kissed her lips gently.

"So when would you be leaving?"

"I'm not sure, but I'm going to call him back tomorrow and discuss the details."

"As long as it makes you happy" Sara repeated again.

Sara gave Grissom a smile, she really didn't want him to leave, but she knew this was something he liked to do and she wasn't going to be the one to stop him from doing something he loved.

It wasn't long after this conversation, did the two of them fall asleep in each others arms.
