Nick and Sara drove towards his house in silence, Nick looked over at Sara as they pulled into his driveway, his hand gently brushed hers. 'You ok?'
Sara looked back at him through tired eyes. 'I don't know Nick. I really don't know.' They got out of the car and walked silently to the front door. Once inside they made their way to the bedroom and soon fell asleep on the bed their arms around each other.

Catherine had fallen asleep, her head resting on the window of Warrick's car when they pulled into her driveway. Warrick gently opened her door 'Cath wake up we're home' he gently shook her.
She looked up at him sleepily and sighed. 'Please tell me it was all a dream'.
'No such luck. Come on let's get you into bed' Warrick helped her out of the car and walked towards the front door, his arm loosely around her shoulders.
They stopped at the front door as Catherine searched her pocket for her keys, finding them she quickly opened the door. She looked nervously at Warrick 'Do you want to come in?'
'As much as I want to I don't think I should' Warrick's voice was low. Catherine moved closer to him, her hand brushed his cheek, and her eyes searched his.
'Please' her voice was desperate 'I don't want to be alone.'
Warrick rested his forehead on hers for a moment. Catherine took him by the hand and led him inside.

Nick woke up some hours later when he leant over to cuddle Sara and found her side of the bed was empty. He sighed and looked over at the clock on his bedside table and groaned it was 6 am. It had been a little after midnight when they had left the hospital, feeling that the sheet beside him was cold he knew it had been some time since Sara had risen. Nick put on a shirt and walked down the hall in search of Sara.
He found her sitting by the window staring blankly outside at the rain falling. Nick walked over and knelt down beside her.
'When did it start raining?' He looked over at her, noticing her tear stained cheeks and red eyes, but she continued to stare out the window.
'About an hour ago' she answered, her voice barely a whisper, as she tried not to cry.
Nick pulled Sara into his arms as she began to sob again. 'How long have you been sitting out here?' He asked as he stroked her hair. Sara just shrugged, her face buried in his neck.
Nick sighed 'You could have woken me up, if you wanted to talk or something..'
'I.. I was just thinking.' she murmured.
'About what?' Nick stroked her hair.
'Something that Grissom said at the hospital' Sara moved so that she was facing Nick, her hands cradling his face.
'Sara' her lips touched his, her hands stroking his face.
'I don't want to be alone anymore Nick' All Sara could think about was the way Grissom sounded, lost and alone.
Nick pressed his forehead to hers. 'You're not alone Sara. I'm here and I'm not going anywhere.'
'I love you Nick' Sara's eyes searched his. 'You know that don't you?'
Nick looked at Sara, her eyes seemed to hold such desperation. 'I know Sara.. I know' he pulled her close again her head resting on his chest.

Warrick looked over at Catherine who was sleeping beside him, her arm slung over his chest. She looked so peaceful. She had insisted he stay, so he had, holding her while she cried herself to sleep. He reached over to brush the blond curls from her face. Her eyes slowly opened and she smiled sleepily at him.
'Morning' Warrick pulled Catherine closer her head resting on his chest as she looked out the window.
'It's raining' she muttered as she caressed his chest.
'Yeah it is' he pressed a kiss to her forehead.
They lay quietly for a moment, the only sound to be heard was their breathing and the rain falling outside. Catherine's cell phone ringing broke the silence.
'Willows' she answered as she got out of bed. 'Ok I'll be there soon' she dropped her cell phone on the bed.
Warrick looked over at her 'Is everything ok Cath?'
'Yeah I just forgot that Ally's mothers plane got in half an hour ago. I said I'd pick her up.' Catherine ran her fingers through her hair an exasperated sigh escaping from her lips.
Warrick moved over to where Catherine was standing, his hands rested on her shoulders. 'It's alright, you get dressed and I'll drive you to the airport.' Warrick gently turned Catherine around so he was facing her, he gently lifted her chin, his eyes meeting hers. 'It'll be ok Cath. We can do this.'

A/N ok I know it's taken me forever to update but what can I say the muse has been rather stingy of late. All constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. Hit the button and let me know what you think.
