He stood at her grave and read the headstone quietly to himself. 'In loving memory' it simply said; she died too young for it say loving wife, caring mother. He kissed a pink rose and gently laid it on the grass at his feet.
2 Years earlier
Grissom made his way through the lab to his office. He had a headache coming on and he didn't feel like making small talk with anyone today, not that he felt like making small talk any day. Safely in his office, he slid into his chair, took off his glasses and leaned back, wishing the chair would swallow him and he wouldn't have to deal with anyone today. But that all changed when a knock came at the door.
"Come in" he sighed, reaching to put back on his glasses; Sara walked in to his office and placed a letter on his desk.
"What's this?" he asked picking up the letter
"My resignation" Sara turned on her heel and left the office as quickly as she came in.
'There, easier then I thought that would be' Sara sighed to her self as she walked back through the lab. She couldn't handle it anymore, all the mixed signals he kept giving her, the mood swings, the ignoring her….. She just wanted to be free, to be away from him and from Vegas. Sara got into her car and sped out of the car park and turned on the radio.
They din't know how I feel
Inside
Through
my smile I cry
They don't know what they're doin' to
me
Keeping
me from flyin'
The words rang out over the radio. 'Hmm, reminds me of Grissom' she chuckled to her self as she made her way home to pack. She was going to go and stay with her brother in Denver; it was the only place she could think of going.
Grissom sat at his desk staring at the open door that Sara had just gone through. He didn't know what to do, he was about to lose his best CSI, 'she's more then a CSI. Come on, are you ready to lose her? You haven't even been man enough to tell her you have feelings for her. You know what is the point, huh? Just sit there. Go on no ones forcing you go after her. Just let her drive off into the night and never come back while you sit there like an idiot'. Grissom mind taunted him; he was torn between his love for his job and his feelings towards Sara. So he got up and raced out of the lab to find Sara.
