Sara lightly knocked on Grissom's door.
"Come in." Grissom said as he looked up to see who it was.
Sara smiled and linked her fingers together in front of her.
"Listen, I just came by to apologize for my behavior. It was uncalled for."
He nodded and took off his glasses.
"I just needed to be by myself."
She walked over and sat in the chair in front of his desk. He leaned and rested his arms in front of him.
"I had a bad dream last night."
Was she going to tell him? Oh, god. She can feel the lump in her throat getting bigger and the rush of tears starting to take place. The first batch of tears must have not been enough.
She looked down at the floor as she tried to form words.
"What kind of dream was it?" Grissom asked in his most caring voice.
Sara looked up at him and suddenly lost it. She sobbed into her hands.
Grissom walked over to her and bended down. He put his arms around her and hugged her.
"It's okay."
Between her sobs and gasp for air she chokingly said.
"I just want it to go away, Grissom."
"Sara," He whispered, still hugging her. "I'm here."
She continued to let it out until she couldn't cry anymore.

"Thanks for driving me home." Sara she as she walked into her apartment.
"Yeah, sure. I couldn't let you drive home after--." He stopped. He didn't want to push it, again. If she wanted to tell him, she would.
A smile pressed on her face. She felt better after she cried out every inch of her. She didn't tell him though and he didn't mention it. He just drove her home.
"Do you want anything? Drink? Coffee?" She went over to her cabinet and opened it. "Hungry? Chinese food?" She asked as she went over and opened her refrigerator. She saw little boxes that contained chinese food from her favorite place.
"No, thanks. I am fine."
She closed it and looked at him. He was still standing at the door with his shoulder prompted against the door frame.
She then looked at her living room. Her kitchen and living room, joined into one big room. She saw the movie she had been meaning to watch but hadn't gotten to it.
"Want to watch a movie?"
She wanted him to stay with her. Just for tonight.
He eyed her and looked over at the living room.
He hesitated. He knew she wanted him to stay.
"Sure."
He walked in and closed the door. She popped in the movie and sat down on the couch. He sat down next to her and rested his arm around her.
"What are we watching?" He asked.
"Along came a Spider."
Sara looked at him and he looked at her with a smile on his face.
Before he could say the words he wanted to, she rolled her eyes with a smirk on her face.
"No Grissom, It's not about spiders or bugs."
"Then why would they name the film, 'Along came a Spider'?"
"I have no idea. Why don't you watch the movie and it might tell you."
Later on in the night, they both fell asleep on the couch. She slept into his embrace as he slept with his head on the arm rest.
One was dreaming peaceful as the other one was in eternal hell.
