The Doctor, The hospital, and the news

"Is she okay?"asked Nick

"She will be. She doesn't have much bruises on her body. It doesn't suggest assault. But, we do know that there is a foreign substance in her body. We are afraid that it might affect her in a way. We don't know the effects yet...but if there are some unusual things that occur in her body, I'm pretty sure that we can medicate it. If something happens, I'll let you know." said the doctor

"What is your name? So that we can look for you whenever something happens...or if we need her prescription." said Brass

"I'm doctor Rivers. Dr. Lawrence Rivers. If you need me, just ask for me at the nurses' station. They'll page me." said Dr. Rivers

"Can we go inside?" asked Greg

"Yes you may. But, be warned. We don't know yet for sure what the effects are on her body."

"Alright." said Warrick

They went inside. Catherine noticed that Grissom didn't look well.

"Hey Grissom, are you alright?" asked Catherine. It was obvious she was worried. Or concerned.

Grissom just nodded. He looked pale. He didn't look alright.

"Maybe you need something to eat." suggested Brass

"You can go home now Grissom. We will make sure that Sara is safe. Get some rest. Eat. Don't force yourself too much. It won't be long and we might be at the hospital to visit two people." said Catherine

"I...can't. I can't go home. I need to stay here and make sure she's okay." said Grissom

"We know your duties as supervisor. Just go home and rest. We'll make sure she's alright." said Catherine

"I need to be here. Not just as her supervisor, but as her friend. You just don't understand. I almost lost her. I just found out that she was the mystery girl and I...I just need to be here. For her." said Grissom

"All right." said Catherine

When the team sat around Sara's bed, she stirred. Slowly, she woke up.

"Hi Sara, you're awake. How are you?" asked Nick

"I'm fine Nicky. Thanks for the concern." said Sara

"Do you need anything?" asked Grissom

"No...I don't think so. I'm fine. Uhmm...may I ask something? Who are you?" asked Sara

"I'm Catherine, this is Ni-" said Catherine

"No...I know you all. But...who's he?"Sara said, pointing to Grissom.

"Sara, this isn't funny." said Brass

"No...no It's not. I really don't know him." said Sara

"Call the doctor." said Brass

While Greg called the doctor, they continued talking to Sara.

"You really don't know him?" asked Warrick

"I really don't. Who is he?" asked Sara

"I'm Gil Grissom. I'm your supervisor." said Grissom

"Oh...really? Why don't I know you?" asked Sara

The doctor came inside.

"Hello Sara, I'm Dr. Rivers. I'm your doctor here. Could I ask you some questions?" asked Dr. Rivers

"Sure."

"What is your name?"

"I'm Sara Sidle."

"Where were you born?"

"Tamales Bay"

"Where do you work?"

"Las Vegas Crime Lab"

"Who do you work with?"

"Lots of people. Jim Brass, Catherine Willows, Nick Stokes, Greg Sanders, Warrick Brown, Sofia Curtis, David Hodges, David Philips, Doc. Al Robbins...To name a few."

"Do you remember this man?" asked the doctor, pointing at Grissom.

"No. I don't think so."

"Sara, I think you have amnesia. Do you remember what happened to you these last few days?" asked the doctor

"I don't know. I don't remember...what happened. What DID happen?"

"You have been abducted. Injected with what we think was hallucinogen. I think you were injected six times." said the doctor.

"Oh. Really? A hallucinogen?" asked Sara

"Yes." said the doctor

"You really don't remember me?" asked Grissom

"I really don't." said Sara "When will I get discharged?" she added

"you'll stay here in the hospital for a week." said the doctor

"A WEEK? Seriously, I'm fine." said Sara

"You are NOT fine. They still need you here for observation." said Grissom

"I AM fine. I need to go home. I want to go home. Since when should you care about me? And since when were you concerned about me?" asked Sara

Sara, If you only know how long I was worried about you.

"The doctor's right Sara. You need to stay here for a week. You need to be medicated." said Nick

"Alright Nicky. Thanks for the concern. I really appreciate it." said Sara

"Okay, I'll get going. Page me if you need me okay?" asked the doctor

"all right." said Sara

The doctor left. Since there was some tension in the room, The team decided to talk and chat with Sara. After a while, they finally got Sara smiling.

"Hey guys...Can you please leave me for now? I think I have a headache...Don't call the doctor, It's just a normal headache." said Sara

"Why? Is there something wrong?" asked Greg

"Uhm...not at all. It's just that, some random words...random phrases...and random sentences...they just pop suddenly in my head." said Sara "and now...I think I'm confused." she added

"Oh really? random sentences? Tell us...maybe they'll help recover your memory." said Warrick

"I don't know who said 'I do...and by the time you figure it out, you'll be too late.'" said Sara "Lots more of these sentences just pop into my head." she added

Grissom's heart suddenly sank. He remembered that sentence. That particular sentence bothered him for years.

Suddenly, Greg was nervous. "What sentences do you remember?" he asked

"something along the lines of; 'I couldn't do it...but you did. you risked it all...' But I still can't remember who said that..." said Sara

"Maybe some things are best forgotten." said Catherine

'Thank you Catherine' Thought Grissom

"Maybe...Maybe not. But I don't like being the person who forgot about what happened." said Sara

Brass frowned."You'll remember them all...all in good time."

"I suppose so. May I ask you guys one more question?" asked Sara

"Sure" they chorused

"Where's my boyfriend?" asked Sara

"You have a boyfriend?" asked Greg

"Yes...you met him. Hank. Hank Peddigrew. Last time I remember, we were on a date...but then we were interrupted by my pager." said Sara

Warrick was shocked. Greg's heart sank. Nick was furious at Balthazar, the reason why she didn't remember. Brass looked lonely. Catherine was surprised. Grissom...

Grissom was horrified.

Grissom's POV

Good thing, we found her in time. I was furious. Balthazar injected Sara, My Sara, with hallucinogen. six times.

When we were at the hospital, I was ready to faint. I had little sleep, and I was hungry. But, here I am. Not making a move to get something to eat, and certainly not making a move to go home and sleep. I needed to be at her side. I appreciated Catherine and Brass's concern but they didn't understand. I need to be here. With Sara

She...didn't remember me. She remembered the whole team but me. I was saddened.

But then, she said she remembered some phrases...some sentences...some words. It gave me hope that maybe, just maybe, If she realized who said them, maybe I'll be remembered. But then, when she told us the sentences that she remembered, It only did the opposite. Instead of making me feel better, It made me feel worse.

"Maybe some things are best forgotten." said Catherine

I mentally thanked Catherine. She was right. Sara didn't need to remember those things. I started to feel better. Maybe if she didn't remember me, we'll be friends, and the awkwardness will be gone. We started to chat. But then, after a while, Instead of making me happy, It only made me sadder. She had a boyfriend. But then, I was surprised. She remembered Hank as her boyfriend. She remembered Hank...but not me.

Oh. My. God.

Author's note: The twist...as promised. :D keep on reviewing. It makes me feel better.
