Greg Sanders had been wondering around the lab all day waiting on results. He noticed Morgan was there as well, but something was different about her. Something was off. She wasn't herself. He caught himself staring at her. She was shaking and hunched over. He realized what she was doing and ran over to her and wrapped his arms around her. "Greg what the hell are you doing?" " I saw you crying and I wanted to make you feel better." "I'm sorry for snapping at you." "You are who I am worried about." "Greg I'm fine." "I don't believe that, especially since I just found you crying your heart out." " I'm really upset because my case is confusing me." "Let me help you." "No,no it's all this DNA stuff." "M, I used to be a DNA tech." "In that case why not." He took a look at the paper and easily figured it out. "Morgs you multiplied wrong." "Oh Thanks!" "Morgie is something else wrong?" She nodded. "Ever since my kidnapping I have been having nightmares and I can't sleep." "M, you don't have to go through it alone."
"How about you and I go for breakfast after shift, just the two of us?" "That sounds great Greggo!" Greg being Greg danced down the hallway and straight into Catherine Willows for the second time in his life. "Watch where you're going Greg." "Sorry Cath." "It's alright although you would have looked better with a head dress." "Very funny."
He ran to his locker to grab his keys and grabbed Morgan. "Do you have any preferences of a place to eat?" "Nope." "I'll take you to this secret diner I found a couple weeks ago." "Works for me." They drove for half an hour and they arrived. Greg helped her out of the car. He lead her to the door and held it open for her. While they were waiting to be seated he put his hand on the small of her back. After about five minutes the hostess came and seated them. They looked over the menus and Morgan asked "What would you recommend?" "That's for me to know and you to find out." Their waitress came and Greg told her their orders. "Greg what did you order for me to drink?" "Lemonade." "That's my most favorite drink in the whole world! How did you know?" "I heard you and Sara talking in the locker room." "Oh." "So what do you classify this as?" "A date." "Morgan do you really mean that?" "Yes, I do." "You want to hear a Greg story?" " Yes!" "So I started at the lab fresh out of college and was a bit of a crazy dude. I had spiky hair and I always had punk rock on in my lab." I used to loved punk rock music." "So one day we had this case, it was the murder of an ex show girl. Well Catherine got one of her headdresses, her name was Portia Richmond, So I got her hair out of it for DNA, I used to be a lab rat, and decided to put it on and danced down the hall and ran into Catherine and Nick who were actually on their way to find me. Cath can tell you from her point of view and Nick can tell it from his point of view." "Oh that's so cute!" "Thanks." he blushed.
The waitress came and sat down two plates of chocolate chip pancakes and bacon. Morgan looked at him wide eyed. "Greg, how do you know what my favorite breakfast is?" "I have my sources." He grinned and started eating. Morgan got about halfway through her pancakes when she gulped. He cocked one eyebrow. "Morgs, are you okay?" "What is this?" she pointed at something shiny in her pancake. He grinned and pulled it out. He turned toward her and got down on one knee. "M, will you be my girlfriend?" "Oh Greg, of course I will." He stood up and took her hand and slipped the ring on her finger. Right as she moved to sit down he pulled her into his lap and their foreheads met. He closed the gap between them and captured her lips in a soft kiss. She threw her arms around his neck, unaware that Nick and Catherine were in the same situation straight across from them. When Nick and Catherine finally pulled apart, Catherine looked over at Greg and Morgan and said "Nicky I believe we aren't the only CSI's who know about this joint." Nick and Greg both turned to look at each other at the same time. Nick mouthed something too Greg and both got up and scurried to the bathroom. Catherine sauntered over to Morgan and said "Well I see that Greg finally asked you out." "No he didn't even realize it was a date until I said something about it." Greg and Nick came back and Nick threw two twenty dollar bills on top of their check and they left the diner. Greg and Morgan followed shortly after. They went to Greg's house. They gave into their inner most desires and lay next to each other in his bed in the afterglow. She rolled over and laid her head on his chest and threw her arm around him. They fell asleep holding each other.
