Intense and well written. Hard to contemplate Sara left behind like this but it was very well done.

holy river rat, batman! who wrote this story? Keegan? Keegan who? LOL...girl this was wonderful. thanks :) chauncey

I don't think there are words to tell you how amazing this story is. You are truly an amazing writer. Keep up the perfect work. You got me teary eyed at then end. Wow.

Uh, I think I'm scarred for life. the thought of Grissom dead

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

But a well writen and thought out fic, although I can't say that I'm happy that you killed him.

Well done! :)

Holy crap... When I started reading the story, I had a few ideas of what I was going to say... now I have no idea. That was far more angsty than I expected. Poor, poor Sara.

Um. Well, I was wondering why you were writing Grissom's dialogue in italic throughout the story, instead of using quotation marks. The end explained that though. Looking over those parts, it was very clever the way you wrote them. And yeah, I need to stop skimming the story because it's just going to make me cry (more).

I guess I'll copy a couple of my favourite lines now...

""I love you," she interrupts quietly, and then repeats the sentiment in French. "Je t'aime."

Je t'aime ma chérie . Toujours."

That was just so sweet. I adore the phrase "Je t'aime". Knowing that she was imagining it/he's dead, it's just so sad.

It's too long to copy in, but I love the part with the little girl. Pretty much that whole scene, really. And actually, strangely, I think I like it better now than when I was reading the story.

That's probably a long enough review. I love the story.. but I also hate it. It's really beautiful, but I can't stand the idea that she's left alone without Grissom. :(

have just read this great but heartbreaking story, and now have tears streaming down my cheeks.

i was glad to see your pen name in my in box once again and i was not dissapointed with this, it has everything apart from him living at the end but i still love this sad story.

Off to get kleenex of my own now and really hoping to see your name in my in box very soon :o)

OMG Keegan, I was expecting some angst but not that level of angst.

I’m heartbroken. It’s beautiful but so sad.

You can have faith in your writing skills, this story is very powerful , intense and gut-wrenching.

I was grieving for Sara’s despair and the last sentence « What am I supposed to do ? » was a perfect ending...whoever has just lost a loved one knows that feeling.

Great job, hun and welcome back. Hope to see a new story soon

Teflon. It does not stick.

WOW! What a way to return! This story was amazing, I hate the CD, but for the purpose of this story you are forgiven!

Oh...My...God...

I cried!

What a wonderful, yet a sad story!

Its a side of Sara that really surprised me!

Heartbreaking words! Specially when she said "It was not his day to die.."

Great story!

Wow that was the most angst filled story I've ever read. All emotions wrapped into one. Shocked when Sara attacked Nick and near tears when she was confessing to him.

What did Grissom die of? Heartbreaking when she quoted from Gum Drops :(

Wow. Welcome back...wait I guess I can't technically say that since I'm not back yet. Oh well, soon enough I hope. That was like a beautifully placed punch in the gut. It hurt SO good. Seriously, I haven't logged on to read (or write) anything in a very very long time and for a first story back this was quite appropriate for how things feel. Glad to see you're still keeping on, friend.

Oh Keegan, if tomorrow never comes...

wow, when you decide to return to gifting us with your writing, you certainly don't spare the angst!...I have always secretly worried about this exact scenario since Sara has returned, or at least worried she would get "that call" and be too far away from him to make a difference...just sobbing right about now, as will anyone who has ever lost a loved one...intensely heartwrenching, a wonderful tale of the bonds of friendship between Sara and the team (especially Nick)...I'm hopeful your next tale will be more romantic and hopefilled...yet, you've addressed a fear and dared to hit a nerve in a story about what it really means to love...great work...looking forward to future writings from you...they are always a welcomed sight in my inbox!

Keegan. Keegan? KEEGAN! - me reading your name pop up in my email alerts! First off, I was both shocked and happy to see your author name pop up for a story alert! Ok, done hyperventilating, on to the story! The word 'wow' comes to mind first, but it's definitely not adequate. I am not sure angst is the way to describe this, lady! I know it must of been heart wrenching to write, and yet, I could see it being oddly cathartic to produce this. The raw emotion from Sara- unrelenting; it pulled me in, sucking me into her living nightmare with as much force as if I were her myself, leaving me heartbroken and still in awe of the beauty. Thank you for sharing such a powerful thing!
