Disclaimer: I don't own them. But I would take Nick, Warrick, or Greg any day.

Author's Notes: I wrote this fic way back in May, and I'm just now deciding to post it. I am and will be forever a N/S fan. So don't get used to the G/S fics. I wrote this for a friend, and that was it. I have not changed it since May, and because of the fact that it was my very first fic, it may suck a bit. Sorry. I warned you. 

When Sara woke up the sun was shining through the curtains. She felt a hot breath on her neck, and then remembered the night before. Grissom had put her in bed, and stayed with her, holding her while she cried. And even after she had stopped, he never let go. She hated bringing him into her messed up life, but he was the only one who could help her now... Not even Catherine, Nick, or Warrick could help her. She wasn't even sure if Greg could bring a smile to her face at this moment, and that scared her so much. She wanted her life back... The way it was before she slept with Hank, before she got pregnant and before her beautiful daughter was tragically taken away from her.

Sara felt Grissom begin to stir. "Sara?" He whispered.

She contemplated not answering and pretending she was asleep, but instead said, "Yeah?"

Grissom sat up, pulling his arm from where it had been encircling her waist. "Good morning, Sara."

Sara rolled over onto her back and looked up into his deep blue eyes, and tried to smile. "Why did you stay with me?"

The look of confusion was evident on Grissom's face, "because I love you too much to let you go through this on your own any longer."

His words shocked her a little. She didn't know what to say. Sara placed her hand in Grissom's, intertwining their fingers. He lifted her hand to his lips and placed a soft kiss on it. "You don't have to say anything," he said dropping her hand and getting out of the bed. "You didn't want me here for a reason. Maybe you're just scared. I don't know, but it's probably for the best that you didn't tell me sooner. For one, I would have killed Hank, and secondly.... My surgery..." He was silenced when Sara grabbed his arm.

She had gotten out of the bed, and was standing behind him. She moved in closer to him, and wrapped her arms around his waist, leaning in, and resting her head on his chest. She could feel his heart beat increase. She made him nervous, and that made her laugh.

"Are you laughing at me?" Grissom choked out.

"Why are you so nervous?" Sara asked not lifting her head off of his chest.

"I'm not. You just scared me. I... I thought you were still in bed... And, well, I, um, wasn't expecting this...." He was cut off when Sara's lips met his for a very chaste kiss.

"Gil, I love you. I always have and I always will. I didn't tell you because of everything you were already going through. I didn't tell you because I was too ashamed," she paused and took a step back. "I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to be burdened down with me. I am... I was... I may still be depressed, and I didn't want you to have to deal with that.... With me."

"But I would do anything for you. I was worried sick. All I wanted to do was bring you back to work, but I didn't even know you were staying with Catherine. For an investigator, I really messed up, and I wish I could have seen.... I wish I could have known so I could have been there for you," Grissom said brushing the hair out of her eyes.

"You are here now, and now is when I am ready for you to be here. You have to understand that," Sara said.

Grissom reached for her hand, and stared down on it. "Look, Sara... I want to be there for the rest of.... of everything. I want to be there the next time you need to cry, yell, scream, whatever. I want to be there. I never ever want to be without you again."

Sara placed a finger under his chin and brought his head up so she could look in his eyes. "Griss..." she started.

"Marry me," he said, shocking himself. "Sara, please, marry me. I want your face to be the last thing I see before I fall asleep, and the first thing I see when I wake up in the morning. I want to bring you breakfast in bed just because I can. I want to have a family with you, and buy a home with you, and maybe even get a dog or a nice cat, or something. As long as they stay away from my spiders."

Sara smiled. "Ok," she said simply.

Grissom looked in her eyes. "Ok? Ok, you'll marry me?" He asked.

"Yep," she grinned the biggest grin she had in so long.

Grissom ran a finger over her lips, tracing the smile, remembering everything about this moment. He let out the breath he had been holding, then pulled her into his arms again and kissed her.

Just then, Catherine came into her Sara's room to make sure she was ok since she hadn't seen her since the night before. "Sara, are you...." She stopped when she saw Sara and Grissom kissing. Catherine cleared her throat. "Um.... You guys wanna let me in on this love-fest?"

Grissom and Sara pulled away from each other and grinned. Grissom spoke first. "Sara just made me the happiest man on the planet."

Catherine walked over to them, and wrapped her arms around Sara, a tear falling down her cheek. "Well, at least I'm finally getting you out of my house," she joked. Sara laughed and hugged her back.

"Thank you so much for being the best friend I could have ever asked for. I don't even know if I'd be here today if it weren't for you." Sara said, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Grissom couldn't help but smile. He was so angry to know that so much pain could have come to his Sara, so much which could have almost ended her life. And he secretly promised to make every day for the rest of her life, one worth remembering.

THE END

A/N: Ok, so the ending seemed kind of abrupt. I'm sorry, but I didn't know what to do from there, and I'm not that great with endings. :-) I hope you all enjoyed my first attempt at FanFic, and last G/S.
