Not Sick...

AN: read and Review...
Nick Stokes could not stop coughing or sneezing as he walked into the break room, he kept his hands bundled up inside the insides of his long-sleeved sweater and swiped at his nose. His skin was lacking its normal healthy color and his dark eyes were shadowed and tired.
"Geeze Nick you should really take something for that and go home and rest," Sara Sidle commented to her co-worker as she sipped her cup of coffee. He only gave her a weak annoyed look in response as he took a packet of Theraflu out of his pocket and poured it into a cup of hot water.
"Man that stuff is nasty…" Warrick Brown said as he walked into the room in reference to the Theraflu.
"It works…" Nick said bitterly making a face as he sipped the drink. He chided away from Catherine Willows' motherly hand as it came near his forehead as to take his temperature. "Don't touch…"
"You're sick Nick," Grissom said sitting down at the table to hand out the assignments for shift. "Go home and rest."
"Not sick…" Nick said. "Ah'm just feeling under the weather that's all guys. Me sick is me not being able to get out of bed."
Nick and Grissom exchanged hard looks at each other before Grissom conceded and said,
"Fine, Nick, and Sara take the 415 turned 420 at the Flamingo. Nick you are to be secondary and do not contaminate the evidence."
"Great so he's going to pass his germs to me?" Sara said with a lilt in her voice and a grin. "Just kidding Nicky, I'm driving."
"No argument…" Nick said as he gulped down the last of his Theraflu and grimaced as he motioned for Warrick to hand him a cup of coffee so he could wash out the bitter taste in his mouth.
Warrick passed him a full cup and said, "Take it easy tonight man and this damp weather is definitely not helping."
"Not sick…" Nick fired back only unearthing his hands from his sweater sleeves to better grasp his coffee cup. Catherine and Warrick exchanged glances with Sara who rolled her eyes.
