After a long night of love making, Gil and Sara were very exhausted, but extremely happy. Gil told Sara, "I have never felt this way about anyone before. I didn't know I could love someone as much as I love you."

Sara smiled at Grissom, her heart swelling. She cupped his cheek and kissed him gently on the lips. She pulled back and said, "It was well worth the wait. You are worth waiting for my love. I didn't think you cared about me, I will always love you."

Gil just smiled, and watched this beautiful brunette lying beside him. His heart was full of undying love for this incredible woman whom he had loved for years. He couldn't believe that he had waited so long to ask her to be in a relationship. He would always regret his hesitance, but will never regret the moments he shared with her. He was also amazed that she had given him another chance after he had blown so many others.

"Thank you for giving me one more chance to love you," he said, pulling her close to him. He wrapped his arms around her thin frame and they both drifted off into a peaceful sleep.

Gil woke up when the alarm clock sounded. After shutting it off, he tried to move, but he realizes he's not alone. Someone else is in his bed, and he is momentarily perplexed. He looks down and sees it is Sara, and he smiles. She is still asleep, and she looks so beautiful in his eyes. Gil watches her chest rise and fall gently as she breathes deeply in her sleep. She has her arm stretched across his bare chest, and he could definitely get used to waking up like this. He slowly rubs her back and she starts to show signs of life.

Sara starts to move more and more, and she opens her eyes. She blinks a few times, trying to rid them of sleep. She doesn't recognize the room she's in, but she then hears, "Good morning honey, how did you sleep?"

She recognizes the voice as Grissom's! She looks up at him, and says " Good morning Gil, I slept well and you?"

He smiled and responded, "The best sleep I've had in years."

She rubs her eyes furiously, desperately wishing she wasn't still in a dream. She looks around and exclaimed, "I must be dreaming!"

She didn't realize she said it out loud until she heard Gil say, "Well, if you are then we're having the same dream, babe!"

Gil kissed her and then Sara said, "I'm hungry, what about you?

"Honey, what you like for me to fix for you?"

"I just want you honey" Sara said, kissing his neck lightly.

"I know you do, and I want you too," said Grissom, caressing her cheek gently. "But, we really do need to eat."

Sara gave in, and Grissom headed into the kitchen to cook breakfast. While he was walking, he began to think:

I'M BLESSED

Baby I'm blessed

To have you here

With me.

I was so lonely

until you touched

my soul

didn't think I needed

love.

you showed me

what I was missing

when you hurt

I hurt. when you're

happy I'm happy

and I'm happy to

be your man.

my only regret

is that I wasted

so much time

afraid to give

into my feelings

scared you would

leave me

baby, I'm blessed.

Gil returned to his bedroom where he had left her, but she wasn't there. He furrowed his brow and called, "Sara?"

She didn't answer, so he called again. She heard him and shouted "Babe I'm in the shower."

Gil walks into the bathroom "Sara breakfast is ready."

"Okay, I'll be done shortly...do you want to join me?" Gil removed his clothes quickly and stepped into the shower.

He said "Mmm, you know I could get used to this."

"What's that honey?" Sara asked.

"Me and you living together...or am I rushing things?" Gil said that with that certain smile on his face.

"It's only been few hours since we been together, but I don't want to waste anymore time Sara," Gil told her, cupping and caressing her cheek lovingly.

"Gil, I feel the same way. I thought if I said something you would run away again," Sara said.

"Sara, I'm never running away from you ever again," Grissom promised. "Without you, I may as well be dead."

She kissed him deeply and passionately. After they showered Gil got dressed for work and Sara not very enthusiastic about leaving, either. She wanted to stay and call in sick, and wanted Gil to do the same.

"Sara, we have the rest of our lives to play hooky from work," he said, laying a gentle hand on her cheek. "We are both needed to work tonight...I'm sorry babe."

Sara stuck out her bottom lip in a pout. "I can't wait until after work...I need you now!"

She walked up to him and kissed his lips with hers, trying to tempt him back to bed. He took a deep breath, and said, "Hon, please...this is hard enough without you driving me crazy. As much as I want you right now, we need to stop and go to work. After shift, I promise that we'll continue."

Sara gave into Grissom, even though he looked so cute and sexy at that moment. She sighed, but her lips curved into a cute smile.

"Okay," she said.

With that, he kissed her passionately and walked her to her car. After one last kiss, they left separately. Sara went home to change clothes before going to the lab.

As Gil pulled up to the signal light, a man runs up to the Lexus and pointed a gun at Gil yelling for him to get out out of the car. He pulls Grissom out while still pointing the gun at him, and throws him onto the pavement. Grissom tells the guy to take the car. The guy was about to get in the car, when he turned back and shoots Gil twice in the chest and speeds off, leaving Grissom lying in the street.
