Enjoy:
"Gil?"
Sara got no reply. She turned on the light in the office and found that she was alone. She took out her phone, it had been an hour since Grissom had brought her to the lab. She walked out of Grissom's office and into the breakroom. She didn't notice Grissom sitting at the table as she grabbed a soda from the fridge.
"Hey sweetie.
Sara jumped and almost choked on her drink.
"You alright?"
"You scared me is all," she said yawning.
"You're adorable when you're tired."
Sara laughed and sat the chair across from Grissom.
"You almost ready to leave Gil?"
"Honey, we have four hours left of shift."
Sara moaned annoyed and yawned again.
"Go lay back down."
"No no. I need Doc Robbins to look at my arm."
"Want me to walk you there?"
"Might as well."
Grissom stood and quickly dropped his papers in his office before walking Sara to the morgue.
"Hello Gil. Sara. What can I do for you two?"
"I was stabbed at my scene today. The bitch dragged the knife down the back of my arm."
"Lemme see."
Sara sat on the stool the doctor had kicked to her. She held out her arm and allowed him to look at it.
"No wonder. Did they tell you you need stitches?"
"Maybe?"
"Did they," Grissom asked sternly.
"Yes..."
"Why wouldn't you get them?"
"Because I didn't feel that I needed them."
"I'll stitch you up real quick and you can get back to work."
"Alright."
Sara sat through the pain and waited for her arm to be stitched.
"There ya go Sara."
"Thanks Doc."
Sara stood to leave and almost fell.
"Whoa. You alright," Grissom asked as he caught her arm and held onto her.
"Yeah, my legs just went weak for a minute. I'll be fine."
Grissom grabbed her hand and kissed it.
"What is going on between you two?"
"You didn't tell him?"
"No, I forgot."
Sara chuckled.
"Grissom and I are married."
"Oh. Congradulations."
"I also am breast cancer positive."
Tears swelled into her eyes again, just thinking about the cancer hurt her emotionally.
"I'm sorry to hear that Sara."
Doc Robbins hugged Sara as she dried her eyes.
"You'll make it through this Sara."
"Thanks Doc."
"I'll let you two get back to work."
"Alright Doc. Have a good night."
Sara and Grissom left the morgue and went back to the break room.
"You know what tomorrow is Sara?"
"Friday?"
"Yes, what else?"
"I dunno."
"Starts with a V."
"I dunno. Can you just tell me?"
"It's Valentine's Day Sara."
"Excuse me," said an unfamiliar voice.
The voice matched a young woman who was no older and 28. She had long blonde hair that was wavy in a few places with sky blue and green eyes. She was a little shorter than Sara.
"Yes," Grissom said taking off his glasses.
"I'm Conrads daughter Morgan. I was wondering where I could find my father."
"I'll take you to his office."
"You sure Sara?"
"I'll be fine Grissom."
"Alright."
"Does he know?"
"No, and he doesn't need to."
"Alright, Morgan follow me."
Sara stood and lead Morgan down the halls for a while.
"What were you two talking about?"
"You won't tell your dad?"
"Promise."
"Grissom's my supervisor and we're married.."
"Oh wow."
"Remember, no telling your dad."
They talked for a while longer until they reached Ecklies door.
"Mo, Sidle."
"Conrad."
"Morgan, could I talk to my CSI for a moment?"
"Of course Dad."
Morgan left the office and allowed Sara and her father to talk.
"Word's been going around that you've gotten married and have a terminal illness."
"It could be terminal. I start treatment soon."
"Well, who tied the knot with you?"
"None of your business."
"Sidle. Is there something I should know?"
"Sara Sidle, you have a package."
"I should go see what that is."
Sara rushed from the office and back to the front desk.
"Whatcha got for me Judy?"
"Just a package from California."
Sara signed for the package and took it into the break room.
"Is that the package?"
"Yeah, its from someone in California. It could be from my brother, mother, or grandma."
Sara took her knife and slowly opened it.
"There's a note."
Sara took the paper and opened it before starting to read it.
"Dear Sara, I know it's been awhile since we talked, but I have some bad news. I wish I had told you sooner but I've developed breast cancer and I'm soon to be passing away. I'm sorry, blame me if you get this too. I pray everyday you won't. I love you Sara. I'm sorry. I sent you something that the hospital let me go get from the storage unit your brother has to save all of our old things. Please, stay strong and enjoy. Love, Mom."
"How long ago?"
"Three weeks. I'm gonna call the hospital."
Sara pulled out her phone, not even caring what was in the box.
"Hello… Yes I was wondering if I could get patient records?... It's on my mother… Laura Sidle… She did?... No no, I'll be fine… Thank you… No, my brother will take care of her… Thank you, you too."
Sara hung up and started to look through the box.
"Sara, are you alright?"
"My mom passed away. The letter was sent out two weeks ago. She died the day after it was sent."
"I'm so sorry Sara."
"She and I were getting closer every time we talked. I'll miss her but I'm not gonna go out there."
"And I won't make you. So, tomorrow we have off."
"And then I have chemo the next day."
"Sara, are you alright?"
"I dunno."
"Why don't you go lay back down in my office…"
"No, I don't need to."
"Sara, please?"
"Fine. Could you take this to the car please?"
"Of course. Go lay down."
"Alright."
Sara kissed Grissoms cheek and went back into his office, falling asleep quickly. Grissom took the box to his car and was done with it. It would only be a few more hours until shift ended.
