Characters: Warrick/Grissom

Warrick entered his apartment. He placed his keys and badge in the bowl on the table in the foyer. He removed the gun from his holster and placed it in the tables' drawer. He headed into his living room, draping his jacket over the back of the sofa, and heading towards the kitchen. He opened the fridge and got an ice cold beer from within. Opening it he took a long cold swallow, and sighed.

This had been a long, hard case. A child had been killed, and that was the only mercy she had been shown. The murderer had raped and tortured her for two days, before he finally put her out of her misery. She was a beautiful vibrant young girl, from the photos hehad seen. This was a vast difference from the broken body that had remained.

The memories came flooding back suddenly, in rich detail. He swayed slightly, catching onto the kitchen counter before he felt strong hands on his hips, steadying him. One hand reached out and removed the beer from his hand and placed on the counter. As he tried to regain his composure the hands never left his hips.

"Come on Warrick," Gil said, looking into his eyes as he placed Warrick's arm around his shoulders. "Let's get you to bed."

How can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping
somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home

Warrick stared into those intense blue eyes. They held a warmth and love that Warrick would never get enough of. But what captivated him the most about this man was his ability to know what Warrick needed, without him saying one word.

Gil led Warrick down the hall, to their bedroom. He helped Warrick sit on the edge of the bed. Then he removed all of Warrick's clothing, leaving nothing on but his boxers. All the while Warrick just sat there, gazing intensely at his lover. He was mesmerized by how much this man loved him and vice versa.

Gil was now busy looking for something in their dresser. Once he found it, he turned and headed towards Warrick, a pair of pajama pants in hand. He helped Warrick stand up and then get into the pajamas. Then he pulled the covers back and helped Warrick into the bed.

Soon Warrick was in a deep sleep. Just as suddenly, Warrick sat straight up in bed, "No!" he yelled his entire body shaking.

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become

Gil was instantly at Warrick's side. "It's okay. You're okay," he said as he embraced Warrick's trembling form.

"I see her face every time I close my eyes," Warrick said, his voice barely above a whisper, as the battered and broken images of an innocent little girl played over and over in his mind.

"She was so little. So innocent. Why would anyone do that to a child?" he asked, his voice hitching on another sob. He knew there was no answer, but he still needed to ask.

Knowing that nothing could explain it, Gil just continued to hold his lover, sputtering comforting nonsense all the while. As Warrick continued to cry, Gil had to hold back his own anger at the suspect. Not only had this asshole taken a young life, he was also wreaking havoc on the gentle soul of his lover.

Gil continued to hold Warrick until the sobs and shaking had subsided. As he moved to go to the bathroom, Warrick held him tighter, "Don't go."

"I'm not going far, `Rick. I'll be right back."

Now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

Gil returned to the bedroom, having relieved himself and changed into a pair of his own silk pajama pants, to find Warrick fast asleep. He walked over to the bed, happy that Warrick was finally resting, and pulled the covers up over his lover. As he turned away from the bed, Warrick grabbed his arm. "Don't go," he said as his grip tightened on Gil's arm.

"I'm not going anywhere, just to my side of the bed," Gil said, cupping Warrick's cheek, trying to reassure him in the gentle touch. Instead of letting him go, Warrick just scooted over to make room for him in the bed, and pulled the covers back. Gil climbed in, snuggling up to his lover, relishing in the warmth of their bodies pressed against one another, and pulled the blanket up over them. Soon both of them were fast asleep.

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become

Gil woke to find himself looking into an intense green gaze. "Morning, baby," Warrick said lazily, as he stroked Gil's slightly stubbled cheek. Before Gil could return the greeting, Warrick leaned in, and gave him a soul-blistering kiss. He lost all thought as all the blood in his body rushed to one place.

Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

Gil took control of the kiss, pushing Warrick onto his back. Breaking the kiss, he straddled his lover, running his hands over every inch of heated flesh. Warrick moaned as Gil palmed his erection through the thin fabric of his pajama pants. "Oh, God...... Gil."

Gil licked at the sensitive spot behind Warrick's left ear, eliciting another moan. He moved on to his nipples, nibbling on each one, loving every moan he could pull from his lover. Warrick's hands twisted in the sheets, as Gil moved lower, stopping only to tease him by dipping his tongue into his belly button. "Gil..... Please."

Frozen inside without your touch without your
love darling only you are the life among the dead
all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life

Removing Warrick's pants and boxers in one swift motion, Gil looked at the throbbing cock before him. Moaning, he took the entire hard shaft into his mouth. Feeling the moist heat surrounding his cock, Warrick tried to thrust into Gil's mouth, stopped only by his lover's strong hands on his hips.

Gil licked along the underside of Warrick's cock, causing Warrick's body to shudder. Then, licking the tip, took Warrick even deeper into the recesses of his mouth. Feeling that Warrick was on the edge, Gil swallowed around the thick shaft, allowing his throat muscles to do all the work. Hearing Warrick scream his name as he reached his peak, pushes Gil over the edge.

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become

Moving up the bed to lay beside his equally satiated lover, Gil kisses his lover's full lips. Pulling Gil into his arms, Warrick kisses him on the back of his neck, "Thank you, Gil."

Understanding completely, Gil says, "No need to," laying his head on his lover's chest, "Je T'aime."

"Je T'aime aussi," Warrick says, kissing the top of Gil's head. He soon drifts off to sleep, Gil following close behind.

(Bring me to life)
I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
(Bring me to life)
