Running Up That Hill by: Starla Marie


Summary: Sara drabble from the end of A la Cart . GSR of course.

Disclaimer: I do not own CSI or Grissom and Sara. I belong to them.

A.N./ I know I haven't posted anything new in quite some time. I let real life run away with me. But I should have known...my geeks are one of the only constants in my life, they make me happy :o) I was astounded by the fact that they keep using amazing songs for GSR scenes. First "Good Enough" and now one of my very favorite songs done by Placebo "Running Up That Hill". It inspired the title to this drabble obviously. I am madly in love with the characters and the thought of Sara not being around makes me ache so I had to get this out. Not sure what you all will think of it, but thanks for reading anyway. Long live geeklove.

This is dedicated to my readers and fellow GSR lovers


I'm standing here, submerged in the frivolity of the moment. My coworkers...my friends, enjoying life. The man I love, grinning like a child. Scratch that, the man I adore. Smiling for me. And I smile back, for him. I smile when he zooms by because I am alive for this moment. When he's gone away I let a little sadness show. Because... I am alive for this moment. I could have just as easily not been. I could have missed out on so many things you never even consider when you go about everyday life. Time is always there for us. Kisses and foot rubs, infectious laughter, embraces born of sorrow and those of passion. You never can really grasp how fragile life is. When you think you do and you'll never forget it, is when you start living like you are indestructible. But we aren't. None of us are. Grissom whispers to me at night that I am the strongest and most beautiful person he has ever had the pleasure of being close to. He is in "awe" he says. He's the only person on this Earth that I whole heartedly trust. I know the team trusts him as well. That's why I have to be the one to step away. Of course I'll miss sharing my nights when them, more than they will ever know. But Grissom is my heart.

Daylight will bring new opportunities and a brighter light to see his smiles. That is all I need.


Thanks for taking the time to read and review. Please...no flames. I can wield a chainsaw as well as Sara and I know where you live :o)
