Sara looked sadly into a distraught Greg's eyes.

"I can't take it anymore. I want him." he whimpered.

"I know you do." She paused, "Don't you think it'd be easier just to talk to him?"

Greg couldn't believe what he was hearing. Just talk to him? Tell Nick that he's actually attracted to him? No. No way. Never. But despite these thoughts, the question of "what if?" still lingered. But still..

"I can't, Sara." She refused to take no as an answer. She had listened to him fantasize endlessly about Nick.

"Just do it. The worst he could say is no." There was a lull in conversation as Greg considered this.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You called?" Nick said in his usual drawl, as he sauntered into the room. He was so perfect. His chiseled arms peeked out from his black shirt and CSI vest. His caring, dark brown eyes that always comforted Greg seemed to stare right through him. His heart raced.

"Yeah. I need to talk to you." Greg managed to squeak out the sentence while he ran through exactly what he wanted to say in his mind.

"Sure. What's up?" This was it. There was no turning back. Before he could have any second thoughts, Greg blurted out

"I like you."

There was only silence.

"What?"

"Yes. I like you. I want to be with you." Nick stood in the doorway in shock. Oh no, thought Greg, what have I done?

"I'm sorry" he said, trying to heal any hard feelings he might have caused, andfast. Nick suddenly looked at him, in even more shock.

"Why are you sorry?" Now it was Greg's turn to be surprised.

"What do you.." Nick smiled and cut him off mid-sentence

"I want you too." The uncertain look on Greg's face morphed into an ear-to-ear grin. "I never wanted to say anything because I wasn't sure how you felt." At that point, they were done talking. Greg walked slowly to Nick, trying desperately to remember every detail about this moment. He'd been imagining this for months, maybe years, and he never thought that it would come true. With every ounce of energy he had in his body, he pushed himself against Nick and kissed him hard. It was everything he'd imagined it would be, but Nick pulled away.

"Wha.." His question was answered when Nick swept all the papers off of the lab table and pulled Greg on top of him. Their tongues were in a passionate wrestling match.

But they were interrupted.

They heard the door to the lab open, and somebody cleared their throat. They looked up to see Sara, looking smug.

"I guess it worked out, eh?"
