A/N: This is just something I wanted to slip in so its not all about them being at work.

Hidden Emotions

Chapter ten

So there he was, standing at the front door of her apartment, trying to work out what he would say when she opened the door, it wasn't like he could say, "Oh hey, Sara, I was thinking about what you said earlier, and well... Yeah, I'll sleep with you, purely for professional reasons" He finally decided that what he would say would just come to him when she answered the door, so he lightly knocked on her door.

After a few seconds he heard locks being turned, then the door opened.

She opened the door to find him leaning against the wall opposite, "Grissom?"

"Sara, hi. Can I come in?"

"Uh... Sure"

He stood with his hands in his pockets in the middle of her living room.

"Not meaning to sound rude, but, why're you here?" Sara asked after closing her door.

Grissom sighed, "I want to know why this case has affected you so badly"

Sara looked at the floor, sitting down on a chair she sighed. "I... I can't can tell you why, Grissom"

"Why?" He asked gently, sitting down on the sofa next to her chair.

"Let's just say... My childhood wasn't the best, that's all I can tell you, when I'm ready, I'll tell you, that could be weeks, months, maybe years, but eventually, I will"

"I'm worried about you Sara, if you don't tell someone, enentually, you'll have a breakdown"

"I just can't tell anyone, sorry" She paused, looking at the floor, "You want anything to drink while you're here?"

"Um, no, don't bother, I need to be somewhere, I uh... I have a date" Sara was sure she heard regret in his voice as he told her that, but she couldn't help he heart dropping at the thought of him dating another woman.

"Oh, ok"

"I'll see you tomorrow" Grissom said as he got up.

"Uh, let me... Let me see you out"

Grissom smiled as they walked to her door.

"Nice apartment by the way"

Sara laughed, "It was all I could get on short notice close to the lab, it'll do for now"

"Good, good, well, I'll see you tomorrow"

"Bye, Grissom, hope your date goes well" "No I don't, I hope it goes bad and you never see her again"

"Thanks, have a nice night, Sara"

"Bye" She closed the door slowly.

A/N: I don't know where I got this idea from, I just sort of.. write, and things come out of it, oh well... Hope you liked it!
