Hello! Thanks for the high hits on the first chapter, and special thanks to stareagle, shortie990 and moochiecat for the reviews!

(Oh, and A/N, but yes, moochiecat, I really was, and I'm 13 now 'insert smiley face')

Anywhoo, here we go.

Sara POV:

Personal yes, Professional definitely;

Ever growing and always ever changing.

Though not the first I've opened up to,

You've seen both sides of me.

The eager Sara seeking approval,

And the other me, still that same young Sidle.

The only one that truly cares.

I've seen it before, but never towards me,

The subtle way you hang on my words,

Yet in a Grissom sort of way: they don't make sense.

I know you listen,

But can't express the emotions built up behind your cocoon.

And this may sound funny, but I love it

The way your ever moving eyes stay fixed on mine.

And I know we always weren't perfect,

And so many times we walked away confused,

But I know that no matter what,

You'll be here there for me,

You've never let anyone of my secrets go,

And for that, I think you know,

That forever we will be,

Our separate entities, but skillfully wound,

And of course it would figure,

That I waited until now of all moments to let this all out,

But I have to let the words pass my lips.

Because now, I'm trapped here, maybe never to see you again

And I would say it aloud,

But I can't make my lips work.

I'd paint it on my forehead,

Wear a shirt that said it all over the lab,

Paint it on my car and my house too,

But since you are still so withdrawn,

I'll respect that and say it just to you.

As you sit, I'd come up behind you.

Making my presence know, then slowly, ever so slowly,

Leaning in, my skin brushing yours,

My hair falling over your shoulder,

Leaning in until my lips brush your ear,

Softly and slowly,

In this moment that is only ours,

I whisper,

"I love you."

Finally drawing up enough air to attempt my escape, I took one last gulp of air before I plunged below the water. Finally I knocked the rock out of the way, and I slid out from under the accursed car and begrudgingly began my long march home. To Gil.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Okay so whatcha think?

Thanks for reading, and please review.

Ohhh, this is where I was going to end, but I had a brilliant idea and have decided to post a third chapter in about a week that you could consider a sequel…

Take guesses about who the POV is from…it isn't Sara or Grissom either…
