Chapter Two.
Everyone had been put on the case, and right now they were working the evidence, while Grissom and Sara waited for the little girl, Dani Feller, to wake up. The doctor said that she would soon, but for now, she was fast asleep.
Grissom glanced at Sara, who's head was resting on his shoulder comfortably. Her eyes were open, but she was clearly tired.
"You can sleep, if you want," Gil said to her.
Sara rolled her eyes, "No, I'm fine." She would never fall asleep willingly while she was working. Plain and simple, she never would. Workaholics were like that.
Grissom didn't bother to argue that she should take a nap, he knew he'd never win.
Sara got up from the chair and walked over beside the bed and looked down at the little girl. She had a butterfly, maybe drawn in eyeliner, beside her left eye. It was small, black, and cute. Sara chuckled to herself, then noticed the resemblance between her and Dani. Sara stared down at the little girl, she had long brown hair and a butterfly necklace around her neck.
Sara sat down next to Grissom again.
"What is it?" Grissom asked quietly.
Sara looked at him. "Nothing," she said and smiled.
Grissom knew that her smile was fake, and that something was wrong. "Sara," he prompted.
Sara rested her head back on his shoulder. "Yes?"
"What's wrong?" Gil asked.
"Nothing," she answered in a slightly higher pitch. That told Grissom she was lieing.
Grissom paused for a moment and considered dropping the subject, but then changed his mind. "Don't you trust me?" He asked.
Sara smiled, "Of course." She stared up at his crystal blue eyes. They shattered every time she lied, or kept something from him. So trusting, and so deep, they pulled her towards him and she couldn't help but stare into them. The first time she looked into his eyes, everything else in the world faded, except for him and her. Sara fell for him at the moment she looked into his eyes. They trapped and embraced her, and never let go.
Grissom got up from the chair, and looked at the little girl. He looked, hoping to see the same thing Sara did. He knew that they both saw the world differently, but right then he felt he saw what she did.
"She looks like you," Gil said finally, not taking his eyes off the girl.
Sara sighed, "Yeah."
At her voice, Grissom turned to Sara. Sara got up and stood beside him. She also looked down at the girl. Then, Dani Feller woke up.
When you looked down at her, you were immediately drawn to her eyes, they were a deep green colour, she had a small nose, and a very light skin tone.
Sara, you know she has your mother's eyes.
