Chapter 1

******
So you're leaving
In the morning
On the early train.
******

So she's made up her mind. She's really going away.

Grissom looked at the clock and sighed. Was it his fault that made her want to leave?

Could he do anything that would make her change her mind?

He hadn't slept well for days, all he could think about was Catherine.

******
Well I could say
Everything's all right
And I could pretend
And say goodbye.
******

Do I really want to leave? I'll be leaving all my friends here. They've become family to me.

Never look back I told myself. Can I really do it? After I've gone through so much here?

Catherine looked at her watch.

It's almost time to go. The taxi should be here any moment.

******
Got your ticket,
Got your suitcase,
Got your leaving smile,
Though I could say that's the way it goes,
And I could pretend you won't know
That I was lying...
******

It's hurting so bad inside. I can't let her go, at least not without saying good by.

I don't want her to leave. I miss her already.

Three days of not being able to see her is already killing me. How can I survive when she's really gone?

Grissom looked at his clock again.

I still can make it.

******
Cause I can't stop loving you,
No, I can't stop loving you,
No, I won't stop loving you,
Why should I?
******

Looking back, the years that they worked together, all their time spent; they didn't know how much they truly cherish each other, until now.

Could she let go of a love?

Could he let go of someone he'd grown to learn?

Could they bear to break their own heart?

Love hurts so much . . .

******
We took a taxi,
To the station,
Not a word was said.
And I saw you walk across the road
For maybe the last time, I don't know.
******

I see Gil standing there. Why did he come?

He said he didn't care anymore. Did he come to say good bye? Or did he change his mind?

Cath shook her head.

No. I've made up my mind to go and he didn't stop me then. I have to go. Right?

Catherine wished she didn't see Grissom at the station. It made it harder for her to leave.

Why?

Because deep down inside, she still loved him.

******
Feeling humble
Heard a rumble on the railway track
And when I hear the whistle blow,
I'll walk away and you won't know,
That I'll be crying...
******

Did she see me? She was looking in my direction.

Or am I just imagining it? Should I go up and ask her to stay?

What if she doesn't want to talk to me? Or even see me?

I can't just see her leave. At least not without saying good bye.

Grissom's heart was fighting with his head. Which should he choose?

Follow your heart like everyone else? Or follow logic and science?

Grissom was in pain. Pain he never felt before.

Time was running out . . .
