A/N: I do not now nor have I ever owned any part of CSI unless you count my DVD collection, I do however claim Angie and Eric and all other OC's in other chapters, ask if you would like to borrow them.


Once the girls were dressed for their day they headed for the truck.

It's the first time that I've been here
Since I was here with him
I remember all the wild flowers
Waving in the wind
Life was an undiscovered river
I was jumping in
Head first

Angie looked at Sara

"I'm sure you thought I was going to drop this, but I'm not. Why don't you think you're Nicky's type?"

Sara sat stunned speechless for a moment. She was shocked at the audacity of Angie's question. Finally she turned to Angie.

"Don't get me wrong, Nick is a great guy, and he is a wonderful friend, but he is a world class player. I mean he likes the "Ms. Texas" type not the "Nerdy Scientist" type, I went to Harvard, I majored in PHYSICS, I couldn't be more of a nerdy scientist if I tried!"

Angie sighed

It was sink or swim, do or die
Sneaking out on summer nights
Stealing wine from my Pa
The thrill of not getting caught
And now and then I miss those days
But coming back to this place
I realize it ain't him I miss
It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love
One time innocence
Yeah

"Trust me, Nicky likes pretty girls, but if they don't have brains it's going to fade rather quickly, he kinda likes being able to talk to the girls he's dating"

Sara turned to Angie

"Well I'm not pretty so he's not going to look twice at me"

Angie rolled her eyes; this conversation was FAR from over.

We ran off to the corn field
Just outside the county fair
There were butterflies in my stomach
And fireflies in the air
He tried hard not to show it
Oh, but he was just as scared
as me

"We're here"

The girls walked into the apartment quickly. Eric was waiting for them; he just knew Angie would be here today.

"Hello Ladies!"

"Hey Eric" Angie replied

Sara stuck her hand out

"Sara Sidle"

Eric pulled her into a hug

"Eric Peddigrew"

And it was sink or swim, do or die
Sneaking out on summer nights
Stealing wine from my Pa
The thrill of not getting caught
And now and then I miss those days
But coming back to this place
I realize it ain't him I miss
It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love
One time innocence
Yeah

And coming here has made me come to this
The one thing I can't get back
Is the one thing I miss
Yeah

And it was breaking rules, flying blind
What you see through younger eyes
It wasn't what I thought it was
Man, I swore he was the one
And now and then I miss those days
But coming back to this place
I realize it ain't him I miss
It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love
One time innocence
Yeah
It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love
One time innocence
Yeah, it's that innocence
Mmm, mmm
