"Shouldn't someone go after her!?" Warrick yelled as Catherine took off down the hall. Everyone began to file out, not wanting to have anything to with the incident. Warrick ran the same path Catherine just had taken yelling her name as he went. Grissom was already gone by the time Nick turned to look at him from the doorway he was standing in. He was walking down the corridor with his head down as if ashamed. The team knew that he was going to duck away in his office, not to be heard from for the rest of the night.
"Cath!" Warrick called as he jogged toward her Tahoe.
"Look Warrick, I just need some time. I need to be away from this, from here, from him." She said putting the key in the ignition.
"This is gonna be rough on all of us but hey, I know you'll pull through. We all will. It'll blow over."
"I hope so." She said closing her car door and pulling out of the parking space as Warrick stood next to the white line on the pavement.
**LATER THAT NIGHT**
Sara, Nick, and Warrick had rapped up their cases and were on their way out. Sara walked toward Grissom's office after saying her goodbyes. She peaked in to see Grissom sitting at his desk staring off into space. She knocked and he pretended to be busy as he told her to come in.
"Grissom, about earlier."
"Sara, it's none of your or anyone else's business so don't even think about questioning me or Catherine about what happened."
"I was going to tell you that I thought you behaved more rationally and that she was out of line to make a scene in front of everyone."
"Thank you. I think. I don't want you- or anyone else for that matter choosing sides when you have no idea about what's going on though."
"Ok. see ya tomorrow" She said turning to walk out.
"Sara." he called and she turned around
"Yeah?"
"Do you think I should call her or show up. or try to make it up to her?"
"Not tonight. give her space and time. If she doesn't show up tomorrow night let her be a little longer. Don't put her on your case if she does come. If you try to talk to her make casual conversation, like in a professional sense."
"Thanks" Grissom replied as Sara began to move toward the door again.
"Oh and Grissom. never just 'show up' that will really piss her off." Sara said giving a small hint of a smile and walking out.
Grissom sat in hi office for a while after Sara and everyone else had gone. He couldn't get her out of his mind. Her words painfully echoed, giving him his first bad migraine in a while. He was angry but more disappointed in himself. Could she be right? Did he ignore her? He began tracing back to everything that had happened the last few months.
Catherine was at home sitting in pajamas and drinking a cup of tea. She wanted to cry more, let out all her emotions, but it was as if she was out of tears. 'I guess after 2 hours of crying there's nothing left.' She thought. She now couldn't help thinking that maybe she was too harsh. Maybe she had made a scene. Grissom could be in trouble for her actions and she knew she'd sure as hell get a call from someone about her behavior.
