Summary: Greg's first case pulled out more than just his ability to do the job. Greg/Sara


"Sara, can I talk to you for a minute?" Grissom said a few days later, coming into the layout room, where the brunette was working on a case.

"Sure, what did you wanna talk about?" Pushing the file further back on the table she focused on the older man.

"I don't know if you've noticed Greg's stoic stature lately but it comes and goes so quick that its making me question this promotion."

"I have noticed it…but I didn't think it was that severe."

"It is…but my question to you is do you think he will bounce back or if it will be as bad if not worse than when the lab exploded?"

Thinking for a moment, a sad look came to the brunettes face. "No, I don't think he will."


"No, I don't think he will."

'Wow.' Greg thought, standing just outside the layout room. 'My girlfriend doesn't believe in me and my boss thinks im a nut case.' Shaking his head, he stumbled away from the door. "I need to get out of here."

"Hey Greg." David Hodges muttered as he stepped up to the younger man, a folder in hand. "…your evidence came back as unreadable."

"You've got to be fucking kidding me?"

"Nope…looks like field work isn't as easy as you thought huh?"

"Shut up Hodges…look if Gris asks where I went just tell him I went back to the scene." Shaking his head, he mindlessly added. "If Sara asks tell her to fuck off."

"Oh im sure she'll love that endearing sentiment from the boyfriend."

"How bout you fuck off too Hodges." Greg hissed roughly before turning on his heel and heading for his Denali.


Nearly a half hour later Grissom and Sara, who were still adamantly talking, made their way into the Trace lab. "Did you get those results back David?" The supervisor asked as he and the brunette stepped further into the room.

"Oh boss…" Hodges snickered, an irritatingly evil smile on his lips as he handed him a manila folder. "Greg didn't tell you? The evidence came unreadable." Turning to Sara he added in a sardonic tone. "Oh and he told me to tell you to fuck off."

"David!" Grissom baulked, shocked that the tech would be so vicious.

"What? I'm just doing what I was told."

"What the hell? Why would he say that?" Sara whispered, her gaze drifting as she tried to figure out what could be going on with her boyfriend.

"I don't know…but he went back to the scene to get more evidence."

"What? He's supposed to inform me of any changes he finds or if he needs to go back to the scene." The supervisors eyes grew wide as he shook his head. Before he could ask, his phone rang, interrupting them. "Grissom."

Sara, still reeling, turned to the tech. "Did he really say that?"

Before Hodges could respond however, Grissom's voice stopped him.

"What kind of accident are we talking about Jim?"


Slamming the Denali door, Greg shook his head. "Shoulda known this was all too good to be true." First his job now Sara, apparently, didn't even believe in him. Letting out a he turned the car over. He had to make this right, not just for his career, but for his relationships sake as well.

Putting the car into gear he pulled out on the street. His brain was so full with thoughts he didn't notice that his hands eased from the wheel or that his eyes started to roll back into his head, he didn't even notice when his own body started to convulse.

The last thing Greg Sanders could remember thinking before his car flipped the median was how weird an out of body experience could be before everything went black.
