Summary: Nick finds something unexpected in Greg's apartment :D

***

"And this is it!" said an excited Greg as he pushed his apartment door open. Nick stepped inside, a little apprehensive as to what he might find (it was Greg, after all).

Surprisingly, it was a pretty normal place, although bigger than the average apartment. The main room was stocked with IKEA furniture and a short hallway led off from the right. A separate kitchen was located at the back, along with a beautiful view of night-time Vegas. "You like?" Greg asked as the shut the door behind them.

Nick smiled. "It's great, Greggo." He couldn't resist a tease. "I don't get how you manage to keep it so clean though…"

His boyfriend playfully punched him in the arm. "Make yourself at home, I'll get a couple of beers," and he walked to the kitchen.

The Texan looked around the living room again, his natural curiosity taking over. Greg's infamous fish tank, holding fish of all sizes and colors, stood next to a big screen TV. 'Wow, DNA techs really do get paid a lot...' he thought.

Nick suddenly became aware of a metal shelf that ran the length of two walls. CD after CD filled the space. He moved closer, but saw exactly what he expected: metal and punk. Greg had a lot of Manson…Nick shuddered at the thought - that was definitely not his type of music. Suddenly Greg was behind him, holding out an ice cold beer. "Hey, are you in the mood for pizza?"

"Sure," Nick smiled and took the bottle. Pulling a CD off the shelf, he asked, "But who's Nightwish?"

Greg took the CD and put it in the CD player. "They're a Finnish metal band," he said as the song 'Wish I Had An Angel' filled the room. "Awesome band, really. I bet even you'd like them." He playfully stuck out his tongue. "I've got a pizza to order!"

Nick watched Greg leave for the kitchen again and grinned. Silently, he agreed – this Nightwish was a good band. He went back to thumbing through the CDs, finding Evanescence and several albums by The Who. Then he found himself looking at one he didn't expect to find.

He waited for Greg to get off the phone before asking about it. When Greg came back, Nick waved Britney Spears' Greatest Hits in front of Greg's face. "What's this doing here?"

Greg saw the CD and blushed before snatching it out of Nick's hands. "It's my prerogative," he shrugged and put it back on the shelf. Nick chuckled.

Next to that CD were several more Britney albums, among other pop. Nick passed by Christina Aguilera and Kelly Clarkson before arriving at Greg's rap section. "You never cease to amaze me, Greg!" he laughed over his shoulder. Soon Nick found himself at the end of the shelf, before he realized several CDs were hidden behind a large potted plant. He reached for the mystery albums…

"Don't look at those!" Greg had jumped up from his spot on the couch and was now standing between his boyfriend and the unknown discs. "Wanna look at my DVDs instead?" he said, trying to push Nick away.

"Uh-uh. Let me see 'em, G," Nick said with an arched eyebrow.

"How about another beer?"

A very amused Nick decided he needed to take action…tickling Greg's sides, he was able to push him out of the way. "You really don't want to see those!" Greg said when he had recovered. But it was too late…

Nick found himself looking at the last thing he expected to find anywhere in Greg's apartment – country music. Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith, Tim McGraw…Greg even had albums Nick was missing. Nick turned to Greg, stunned.

"Uh…they're not mine?" But Greg's sheepish grin gave him away.

Nick pulled Greg to his feet. "Bedroom. Now."
