'This was a mistake. I new I was going to regret it but I asked him anyways.' She rushed down the hall, tears burning in her eyes threatening to fall if she didn't get out of there quick. 'I finally take a chance and this is what I get in return.' She rushed into the locker room to grab her things before heading out the door towards her Tahoe. Once she reached the vehicle and climbed in she gave up the battle against her tears and rested her head against the steering wheel and cried. Sobs shook her entire body as she let out everything that had built up inside her in the past few days. From the explosion to her encounter with Grissom in his office just a few minutes ago.

'I need to get away from here before someone sees me.' She realized and lifted her head to wipe away the wet trails that had created a pathway from her eyes to her jaw. She wiped her wet hands in her jeans to dry them off before she grabbed onto the steering wheel and backed out of her parking space cautious of the 2 women behind her.

As she drove in the direction of her apartment, her mind wandered back to her conversation with Grissom. It was a simple question. She wasn't asking him to make any sort of commitment. Just have dinner with her. He didn't even give her a chance. He barely even thought about the question. Just looked at her and gave an abrupt no.

Her eyes filled with tears again and she tried to prevent them from falling but her eyes spilled over and tears descended down her cheeks in a steady stream. Her vision blurred by the tears she knew she should pull over somewhere, it really wasn't safe to be driving. As she came upon an intersection, she didn't notice the truck coming towards her from the left. The truck was zigzagging a bit but stayed in its lane. She continued through the intersection but the truck didn't slow down when it came upon the lights. Instead it sped up. For a moment Sara's heart stopped and her breath caught in her throat. Everything seemed to be happening in slow motion. The squeal of breaks could be heard, a loud crash and then nothing.
