It was begining to get dark when Grissom brought Sara home, he turned the engine of and looked down at Sara who had fallen asleep on his knee. Grissom regreted upsetting Sara back in the lab but he didn't regret giving that punch to Hodges, he couldn't believe he would say that. He sat in the darkfor a few minutes more before he heard Sara sighing and stretching, she was looking around she had no idea where she was she sat up and smacked her head on the steering wheel, " hey Sara careful honey are you OK." Sara looked up and saw Grissom and rushed up of his knee she was scared of him, "Grissom you punched my abuser you always say violence is never the answer, and do you not think it might scare..." Grissom pulled forward and kissed Sara on the lips, it was only a little one but a flush of happiness dashed through her body. "Sara I wanted him to feel pain just like you have I would never dream of hurting you... Because your beautiful and when your better I want to start dating you?" All sorts of things where flashing through Sara's head, one was she couldn't believe the man of her dreams has kissed her and even asked her out! Anouther was her head was hurting from the steering wheel.

They both sat down on Grissoms sofa "grissom I'm really tired and all I want to do is sleep with no interruptions." Grissom took pity on Sara as she layed her head on his lap and he began to play with her hair, "Sara take one of your pills and I'll take you of to bed, then I'll join you when iv had a bite to eat." He gently lifted Sara's head up so he was able to get her ready for bed, "thanks gil I'll go get ready" she chirped.

Grissom entered the bedroom with a glass of water and one sleeping pill, Sara was already curled up in bed waiting "here have these." With no hesitation Sara popped the pill in her mouth and lay back down, grissom stayed with her until her eyes finally dropped and she fell asleep.

2 MONTHS LATER

laughing was coming from outside the door and a few moments later grissom and Sara walked in hand in hand, "I love you my beautiful baby girl" he said softly Sara's eyes sparkled they hadn't done that in a while. Grissom prepared there dinner while Sara was looking in a magazine, "hey Griss have you ever been on the smiler?" Grissom looked at her and raised his eyebrow "I don't believe I have Sara I would love to do it though." He saw Sara's frown turn into a smile "then let's go." Grissom walked over to her "are you sure I thought you didn't like heights?" " I don't really but I want to hold your hand on it." Sara softly saidsaid walking over to grissom and kissed him passionately. They both are there meals and went to bed.

Sara fell asleep first and grissom sat up watching her soft breathing, she's recoverd so well he thought her horrible bruises had gone, her stitching had completely healed leaving only a tiny scar, Sara hardly ever had a nightmare and when she did grissom would be there to hold her close and wipe away her tears, she was even more beautiful then ever, he slowly wrapped his arms around Sara and she moved her hands over his, "i love you" he whispered planting kisses on her neck 'I love you more" Sara quietly said.

The day of the amusement park came and grissom was excited Sara did hesitate the smiler though, "hey its okay baby I'll hold your hand" they jumped into the queue they got closer and closer and closer grissom looked up "I'm only estimating but that drop looks 50feet high which would calculate to a speed of 85 mph" Sara giggled at Grissoms way of science. Finally it was there turn and on the rollacoaster they were the only ones on it for some reason, they got to the top just before the drop and the carriage came to a Holt, "grissom what's going on" Sara said frightend clutching his hand tighter. Grissom pulled away "iv loved you for some time now Sara, your just so beautiful and iv loved you more everyday so I was just wondering...will you do the honour of being my wife." Tears started rolling down her cheeks,Sara had a huge smile on her face and grissom was holding a ring out to her, "omg YES GRISSOM I will be your wife." He slid the ring up her finger before kissing her lips. But before the ride started they heard clapping and whistling and cheering they looked down but they all look like ants 50 feet high. Sara screamed her head of as the ride dropped, he put his hand into hers.

They stepped of the ride and people in the queue were awwing at them, they was created by the team Nick, Warrick, Cathrine, Greg and Jim. They all came forward and shook hands with Grissom and hugged Sara, Greg was so jelous but he was happy "now you look after her grissom she's a special girl, you hurt her and it won't just be her you have to face it will be us!" Grissom looked at Sara "never in the world would I lay a hurting finger on Sara, I lover her too much." The team laughed.

They carried on riding rides having a laugh but the day was soon done they all had such a good time. But before cathrine left she asked to speak to grissom alone "I'll wait in the car for you Griss." Grissom smiled at her "what do you need Cath." Cathrine sighed "grissom I hate to do this but a trail date has been set for Hodges for two weeks tommorow, and I think you need to tell your fiancé, and discuss about attending." Grissom nodded "thanks cath I will."

Grissom walked towards the car he knew it would traumatise Sara yet again "hey honey, i need to talk to you a sec." Grissom sighed dreading what was about to come "sure thing gil shoot?" Grissom cleared his throat "well you remember a few months ago when you was raped." He said painfully "mmmmm hmmm what about it?" "Well Sara there has been a date set in place for Hodges trail... They want us to attend" Sara's happy eyes dropped she didn't want this to start all over again. Sara tried to put on a brave face "fine grissom just fine I'll go," grissom knew she was hurting "Sara I aaaam..." Sara interrupted "leave it gil just take me home" grissom nodoed started the engine and they drove home in complete silence.

An hour later they arrived home and Sara imediatly jumped out the car and ran inside, grissom tried to catch her up but Sara had already locked the bedroom door, grissom pressed his ear against the door and could hear the faint sobbing of Sara. "Sara open the door please I don't want to talk about it I just want to hold you in my arms and protect you." Sara hesitated before walking over to the door and letting grissom in, he didn't even get completely in the room before Sara had ran up to him. Grissom sat Sara on the bed with him and wrapped his arms around her waist and planted kisses onto her head. "Sara you don't need to go through this again not if you don't want to the evidence is strong enough." Sara coughed before saying "grissom I want to do it but I'll only do it if I have your support and if you will be there with me." Grissom dried her teary eyes "Sara sidle you are my one and only and I love you with every beat of my heart, I'm going to be there with you every step of the way my beautiful wife to-be." Sara stopped crying and kissed gil on the lips

*few kisses to many later

"Hey Griss when you called me Sara sidle earlier you got it wrong, I'm a grissom now gil no longer a sidle." Grissom pulled a joking angry face 'okay let me re phrase that... I love you Sara Grissom." And with that they both fell asleep arm in arm.
