Summary: Warrick's first day.

***

He was nervous. More nervous than when he'd graduated from ULV with a BS in Chemistry. No one in his family had ever obtained this accomplishment. His grandmother was so proud she was bursting at the seams.

Warrick walked in LVCL, introduced himself, and asked for directions to Brass' office. You should've seen the myriad of expressions on Brass' face. Shocked, then acceptance, he was the first black hired as a criminologist.

He encountered Catherine in the corridor of fluorescent lights, closed doors, and not exactly hiding the array of laboratory equipment. She was blonde-haired yet smart, she too stared, and gave him a quirky smile. "Nice to meet you."

Brass opened a door. Warrick's tall frame stepped through the threshold. A cluttered office confronted him. And were those bugs in a jar? The man in the seat had his back turned to them.

Warrick scoped out the place, getting a feel for the man who was the lead criminologist. He'd heard stories about him.

"Griss?" Jim said.

"I'll be with you in a moment," he responded.

Gil swiveled in his chair. Warrick's heart pounded three times. Lust shot straight for his groin, and he prayed Griss had not seen.
