Why this must be read: There's a lot of Grissom/Catherine friendship fic out there but this one takes a different look at both characters and their friendship. Set after Lady Heather's Box, Grissom visits Catherine at home after Eddies death.

In this story unlike others, Catherine is painted a little harsher than normal, a little harder. She's struggling to cope with Eddie's death and what this means for her and Lindsey. This Catherine isn't crying her self to sleep, she's lashing out at herself and Grissom.

Grissom, on the ither hand. is typically portrayed as sort of clueless and struggling to deal with Catherine and her emotions, this one is different because you can see the struggle going on while not being in Grissom's point of view.

While this isn't how I would typically write their friendship, it's a valid choice and it makes me hurt seeing them this way. Sometimes that's exactly the type of fic you need.
