A/n Thanks for all the reviews on the last chapter, I'm posting this a little early after the cliffhanger from the last chapter. Happy reading

Chapter 5

They arrived back at the lab an hour later, a full 30 minutes quicker than what it took Nick to drive out to the scene.

Sara jumped out of the Denali before Greg had realised they had stopped. He quickly followed her. He caught up to her at the steps of the lab.

"Did that happen? Back at the scene, did that actually happen? Or did I just imagine it? Am I crazy? That did happen, didn't it?" Sara rattled on, trying to make sense of what was happening in her own head.

"If it didn't we just forgot Nick." Greg jokingly replied, trying to make light of the situation.

Sara however barely heard.

How was it possible that he was here? She tried so hard not to think of him and she had been doing so well. She no longer cried herself to sleep. Up until today it had been a full week since she had wondered about how he was doing.

"You knew." Out of nowhere Sara broke the silence.

"Excuse me?"

"You knew, you mentioned him today, you haven't mentioned him in front of me since I told you we had separated. So I repeat, you knew, and don't even think about lying to me Greg."

"Okay Sara, listen to me I didn't know he was going to show up out there today," Greg explained. "My last case was a suspicious suicide at ULV, he showed up at my scene, he knew one of us had to be there. He asked me how you were; I knew then that you didn't know he was in Vegas. Sara, I didn't want to upset you. You are just about coping as it is. I promise you Sar, I didn't know he was going to come out to one of our scenes. If I had known Sara I would have told you, you know I would have."

"You might not have know, but I know someone who did."

D.B had an open door policy in his office; his door was open to anyone who needed him. It was only when he heard Sara entering his office that he wished he had a knock-before-entering policy.

"Sara, I'm sorry, okay? It's just that he asked for the three of you and, I-I don't know, I thought maybe seeing him might change things between you. I don't know, at the time I thought it was a good idea…"

"A good idea?" Sara whispered, trying to calm herself. "What the hell made you think sending me out to a scene with my soon to be ex husband was a good idea? A good idea would be Hodges asking Morgan out. Me being blind sided out at a scene by my husband was not a good idea!"

Sara sank into the chair across from D.B. Emotionally she was exhausted, physically she felt she could beat some one up.

"Why is he here? Why now?" Sara asked, hoping someone could explain to her why she felt this way. Why she felt she could kill Grissom and get away with it but still love him so much that it hurt.

D.B had never seen Sara so…broken. Even when she was being accused of murder Sara put on a strong front, but now after 30 seconds with her husband she was someone D.B didn't notice. D.B now saw the affects of one Gil Grissom.

A/n Thank you for reading, tell me what you think in a review. ^_^
