I'm trying. Really. I would also like to apologize for any confusion in the previous chapter. I don't quite know how to fix it. I would just like to finish it though. Thank you for being so patient. For those who are interested, I am currently creating a Twilight website with a few friends. It is still a WIP but feel free to check it out, make suggestions or become a member.

And no, I haven't got a beta, my last one was eaten by werewolves.
"Would you please explain what the hell just happened." Assistant Lab Director Conrad Ecklie had heard the commotion and came to investigate, along with the rest of the lab, finding Grissom pinning a man viciously against the wall. Having witnessed him leave the building, Ecklie then pushed Grissom into his office and began his vocal assault.
"Not really." He sounded almost bored.
"'Not really'? You threw a man against a wall Gil."
"Personal matter Conrad, wont happen again."
"You'd better hope not. You'd better start hoping he doesn't file a complaint."
"Are we done here?" Ecklie looked skeptical for a moment before nodding. The team had gathered by his car, ready to interrogate him as if he were a murder suspect. "Don't bother cause I'm not saying anything."
"So we aren't allowed to know why you throw a guy at the wall?"
"You're allowed to know, I just don't want to tell you."
"Gil-"
"Leave it alone Catherine. It's none of your business. That goes for everyone." Pushing his way through the crowd, Grissom jumped into his car and drove off before anyone could stop him.
"Brass."
"It's Gil. I need to know what the hell is going on. Its bad enough that Terrance had the guts to actually show up at work. If Sara had recognized him..."
"I know Gil, but its not like he's done something wrong. You were the one that him threw him against the wall." Grissom ran a hand across his face impatiently while he waited for the lights to turn green.
"I wished people would stop reminding me of what just happened."
"Not everyday the guys see you starting a fight Gil."
"If you can keep your hand out of Heather's pants, I might come round to yours. On second thought, I'll just go home."
"Probably the smartest thing you've done all day."
"What I don't get is why he's being so evasive. If it really is nothing, why wont he tell us?" Everyone had gathered in their regular cafe, listening to Catherine rambling on about why Grissom refused to explain the incident at the lab
"Simple explanation Cath. He's Grissom. And you are obsessing" Most of the table were almost asleep with boredom.
"I am not obsessing Sara."
"Then shut up about it." Sara rose, throwing a few bills on the table. "I'm going home. I'll see you tonight."
Keen eyes observed her as she exited the building.
LATER THAT EVENING (just so you don't get confused)
"Grissom."
"Its Sara. I wouldn't normally bother you but my battery died on me and Greg isn't answering his phone. Can I get a lift?"
"Er... sure. I can be in there in twenty minutes."
"I'm not exactly going anywhere."
A ride with Grissom usually consisted on absolute silence, so when she opened the door to find the radio playing came as a shock. It wasn't until they were out of the car park that she realised that Grissom was humming softly in the background.
"Sorry. Old habit."
"Don't be. I do it all the time."
"I think thats where I got it from." The car went silent as the next song started.
I should never think
What's in
your heart
What's in our home
So I Won't
You'll learn
to hate me
But still call me baby
Oh Love
So call me by
my name
And save your soul
save your soul
Before
you're too far gone
Before nothing can be done
I'll try
to decide where
She'll lie in the end
I ain't got no fight in
me
In this whole damn world
Tell you to hold off
You
choose to hold on
It's the one thing that I've known
Once
I put my coat on
I'm coming out of this all wrong
She's
standing outside holding me
Saying oh please
I'm in love
I'm
in love
Girl save your soul
Go on save
your soul
Before it's too far gone
And before nothing can be
done
'Cause without me
You got it all
So hold on
Without me you got it all
So hold on
Without me you got
it all
Without me you got it all
So hold on
Without me
you got it all
So hold on
Without me you got it all
So
hold on
Hold on
Though she was trying desperately to hide it, Grissom could see faint traces of tears rolling down Sara's cheeks. Not he was surprised. The song had hit him hard too, but he couldn't cry. At that moment, he was uncertain if that was such a good thing. More than anything, he wanted to say something, how he felt, anything, but that put her life in danger. The lights of the Strip whizzed by quickly, unnoticed. Tired of the silence, he opened his mouth when a large SUV crashed into the drivers' side of Grissom's vehicle.
So shoot me already. The song is beautifully sung by Mr. Robert Pattinson a.k.a Edward Cullen from 'Twilight'. Check it out on YouTube.
