Nick wasn't sure how he'd ended up on this work retreat or how they'd managed to get paired up together – him and Gil – but he wasn't complaining, it meant that they had to do trust falls and that was just an excuse to grab hold of Gil and never let go.

It wasn't until they realised that they were also supposed to share a room with their partners that they both realised just how fun this weekend could be. However, Nick had other things in mind when it came to how they would spend their evening.

"Do you trust me, Gil?" he asked, once they were in bed – together of course, the other bed in the room remained untouched.

"With my life."

"Are you proud of me?"

"Always."

"Do you have faith in me?"

"Why all the questions, Nicky?" Grissom interrupted. He could sense that something was off with his partner.

"You just, we never work together anymore, not since I was kidnapped and I know you want to protect me, but if you love me, and you trust me and you have faith in me, then what's stopping you?"

"It's just the way the assignments work, you know that, Nicky."

"Then how come, I never get to work with you? Surely, we must get paired up eventually if the laws of probability are to be believed."

"You want the truth?"

"Dammit, Gil, of course I want the truth!"

"I can't resist the urge to pinch your cute butt, or the look you wear when you're concentrating on a sketch or something. I'm afraid I'd have to ravish you in front of everybody and you know if Ecklie found out about us, he'd have us both transferred to different shifts and we'd never see each other. I'm sorry for making you think I doubted you. I have the utmost faith in you."

"Yeah, okay, I can understand that. So, since Ecklie got paired with Greg, you wanna ravish me anyway?"

"Always, Nick, always."
