A/n- I don't own any of the songs I just think they remind me of Grissom and Sara's relationship.

Sara had just finished processing a long scene with Grissom. He worked well with her and they were very thorough but she wanted more. She wanted him to love her like she loves him. She told him she would meet him back at the lab. He didn't hear her so she got in her car and just left.

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

Sara sat in her car driving back to the lab and began to sing to herself

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

Her window was down and she was at a red light. It felt good to sing. She was singing to him but he wasn't there.

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

She continued driving down the street but had difficulty getting far with the afternoon rush hour here. She sang louder now. Her anger could now dissipate into the air rather than yelling at him.

I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you
Because of you

She pulled into the parking lot just as the song ended and wiped away her last tear. She got out ready to lug the evidence up to the lab and forget about him, for now.

Half an hour later she sat in the layout room still looking at evidence. She was beginning to worry about where he was. But she wasn't going to let that get to her. She turned the radio on softly and tried to forget him.

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

You've gone away, you don't feel me, anymore

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore

He stood in the doorway and watched her work. She was beautiful and he loved her. He wanted to hold her and never let her go away from him but is that was she wanted? Did she want him to love her? He walked over to her and placed his hand on her shoulder.

She knew who it was but she couldn't turn around. She wouldn't look. She could not keep being pulled into him like this. She needed to forget him and move on and she knew it.

He reached across her body and shut the radio off. She still didn't turn around. He took a step closer to her and bent over next to her. She could feel his hot breath as he whispered to her.

"You have the voice of an angel." He pressed his lips on her head and left her sitting there in the dark room.
