Title: Betrayal
Summary: Sara and Grissoms wedding anniversary. What could possibly happen?
"It's been a year." Sara said as Grissom poured them both another glass of wine.
"I know." Grissom held up his glass "To us." He said.
"To us." Their glasses clinked together and a silence fell.
"A year and two days." Grissom said after a few moments.
"What?"
"Technically it's been a year and two days."
Sara still confused just sat there staring at him. "What?" She asked again when he clearly wasn't going to explain on his own.
"You don't remember?" Sara shook her head. "You got a murder case, took overtime?"
"Oh yeah." She said into her glass.
Grissom took her left hand in his and kissed the ring on her ring finger.
" I like this."
"Me too." Sara smiled.

"Are you okay?" Sara asked when they walked into Grissoms apartment. He had been quiet most of the ride home.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Why?"
"You just seem quiet."
"I've been thinking about this year." He sat down on his couch, and Sara followed lying down and resting her head in his lap.
"You make it sound like a bad thing."
"Its not." He shrugged.
After a few minutes passed, Sara knew something wasn't right.
"Grissom what's wrong?" She asked sitting up and looking into his eyes. "What are you hiding from me?"
"It scares me that you can read me like a book." She smiled, but he was serious. Almost no one could see right past the mask he put up to hide behind every day. Her smile faded when she saw he wasn't joking.
Sara reached up and touched his cheek "Whatever it is, you can tell me."
He fell silent. He couldn't tell her 'No I cant.' It would only make her want to know more. He couldn't tell her what was bothering him either. It would cause him to lose everything that meant something to him.
He took her hand from his face and held it in his. Staring at her ring he shook his head. "I made a mistake."
"With me?" She pulled her hand back
"No, no. Sara, I married you, I love you. You are not a mistake under any circumstances." He kissed her cheek and stood up. "I'll be right back." He said and left.
"He's not coming back." Sara said to herself after a few minutes had passed. She stood up and started looking for him. She found him in his office behind his desk reading a case file.
She leaned against the doorframe and waited for him to notice her standing there. When he didn't, she figured she might as well break the silence and make her presence known.
"Is it Catherine?" Her voice broke the silence and caused his head to snap up.
"What?" He asked shocked.
"It is Catherine isn't it? What did you do with her that's making you act like this?"
Grissom got up from behind his desk and walked over to her. "Sara." He tried to take hold of her shoulders, but she turned her body away and walked to the other side of the room.
"No. Grissom, did you cheat on me?"
He sighed and looked down. He was too ashamed of himself to speak.
"You did!" She shouted knowing his silence confirmed what she had thought. "I knew you two were close, but not that close!"
Grissom looked up at her opening his mouth to say something, but Sara wouldn't let him.
"No! Don't you dare try to explain! I loved you Grissom! I trusted you! You threw that all away!" She yelled.
"I'm sorry Sara." He said after a few seconds.
"I bet you are." She said in a disgusted voice.
"Sara, come here." Grissom held out his arms to her.
"No!" She looked at him "I can't believe you. I loved you Grissom! I trusted you with everything! And you just go off and sleep with Catherine? How the hell could you do that? I thought I meant something to you!" She shouted and took the wedding ring off her left hand and threw it at him. She walked right past him and out to the hall. She grabbed her purse and her jacket and opened the door.
"Sara!" He ran after her, and got to her in time to see her opening his front door. "Don't leave me Sara."
"Goodbye Grissom." She said and walked out the door.
