Colby Granger yawned loudly and covered his mouth with his rigth hand. He had just arrived to FBI's building and was smiling widely to himself. He had woken up on the right foot. He had a feeling in his stomach that something good was going to happen this day. He walked over to his other team mates still with a wide smile on his face.
"Good morning, both of you", Colby said cheerfully and got a smile from both David and Megan.
"Morning. What happened to you?" David asked with a laugh.
"Maybe he got laid", Megan teased and gained a look from David.
"What?" She asked. "If he's going hyper, why wouldn't I?" She asked as she swinged in his chair.
"Maybe it was you who got laid..." David muttered and both Megan and Colby gave it a laugh.
"What's going on?" Don asked suspiciously as he walked in with a cup of coffee.
"Nothin'" Megan said still holding her laughter. Don walked still little doubtly to his desk and sat down on his chair. He sighed heavily and his teammembers went alert. Something must have be wrong. As Don rised his hand to massage his temple David was the first one to ask the guestion.
"What's up, Don?"
When Don didn't anwser to the guestion instantly the team was getting worried.
"His date was a disaster", An amused voice told them. Everyone turned to look at the source of the soft voice, even when they knew who carried it. Charlie Eppes stepped inside to the room with an evil grin. Don opened his eyes and threw a warning glare over to his baby brother.
"Ruined date?" Colby asked hoping for more information of his boss' date. Charlie was about to open his mouth to tell the agents about Don's humilation when Don interrupped.
"If you don't have any other business here than torment me, I'll make you leave", he said with a very angry voice. Charlie only raised his eyebrows and walked over to Dons desk. He handed over a file to him.
"I've calculated the possible places where your killer may strike. There's four options left, I couldn't do more with the information you gave to me", He said apologeticing, Don glancing trough the list he was given. Then he nodded approvingly. He got up and looked for something passionately. Charlie stepped aside as his brother almost walked over him. He took some paper over Megans desk.
"What is it?" She asked curiously when Don smiled with realizion.
"Look, look!" He said passionately as he put the papers before her nose. "It's the same addres. It's a match." He said as other team mates came closer to have a look.
"He's going to be there." He confirmed.
"In the treathmessage he said that next victim would be taken at 6.30 P.M." David glanced his clock. "So we have 11 hours."
Colby nodded firmly and smiled also.
As Don started to plan where to set everyone in place, Charlie sighed in relief. He had helped to save a human life again. He smiled sheepishly when he saw the serious looks on the agends faces as they discussed about the case. His gaze remained on Colby. He had to admid, the man was gorgeus with his muscular body, bright green eyes and with that oh so worth-to-melt-for smile... Charlie snapped out of his toughts and was quite shocked about his toughts. He blushed rapidly and tried to control his toughts. He was straight for God's sake! Or was he? Charlie shook his head and blushed little more about the tough of him and Colby together.
His actions weren't overlooked and Don looked him worrying.
"Are you ok, buddy?" He asked and his team mates turned to look his brother who was apparently blushing like hell. What caused this, Don actually didn't want to know.
"I-I'm fine! Um, I'm going to work now, don't get yourself killed!" He stuttered and walked fast past them. The team looked over his retreating back.
"What's wrong with him?" David asked.
The day was on it's end and as Colby had tought, the day really had been good. They caught the murderer and nobody had gotten hurt, even tough the maniac had tried to shoot whatever moved.
And he had saw Charlie. The top of the iceberg. The most beautiful man created on earth. And to him at least, the smartest. And now he was walking in the hallway of CalSci making his way over to Charlies office. Couldn't be more perfect day. As he came to the Mathematicians door he knocked it twice before opening it. He spotted dark curly hair behind the desk full of papers and other stuff that didn't make any sense.
"Hi Charlie", he said gently trying not to be too obvious. Charlies head popped now fully behind the desk checking out who had entered the room. A smile appeared in to his face before answering. "Hello Colby", Charlie stood up. Colby broke their glances and let his eyes wander around the room.
"What the hell has happened here?" He asked laughing. The place was a mess. There were piles of books, files, pens, papers, boxes full of stuff and little more books.
"Oh, I was looking for one paper and then I got carried away and started to read all these..." he answered and frowned. "Which reminds me, I never found that piece of paper."
Colby laughed at the look on his face.
"Oh, I almost forgot, we caught that murderer, thanks to you", Colby changed the subject.
"I'm glad to hear that", he said in relief. They stood in pressing silence both looking at each others.
When slight red colour sneaked on to professors face he broke their gaze.
"Umm was there anything else you needed me for?" he asked with high voice and tried to look anywhere else than Colby as he cursed his toughts. And the fact that he had had these toughts about the older man for the minute he saw him the first time didn't relax him one bit. Now he squirmed under Colbys eyes and tried to look as normal as he could.
Colby hestÃtated for a while before admitting "No, not actually"
Charlie looked over his messy office and sighed. Colby noticed it and offered his help in cleaning the room. Charlie brightened up and they started piling up things together.
They had a nice chat about things in relevant until Charlie yawn made Colby to glance his watch.
"God, it's already ten!" He almost yelled.
"That much already?" Charlie wondered out loud. "Well, we can stop now, I'll clean up in the morning..." He mumbled and dodged piles of papers on the floor making his way to the door. But even with his hard effort, he tripped to single book on the floor and while trying to keep his balance his hands tried to grap anything close to it, in this case, Colby. Taken by a suprise soon they both lied in the floor with a great thud.
Charlie moaned in pain and opened his closed eyes. Which he mayby shouldn't have done, because a gasp escaped from his mouth for the sight he was looking. Charlie was half on top of Colby who was cursing the pain that throbbed in his pack. Charlies and Colby's faces were inches away from each others. When Colbys eyes found Charlies they looked deep in each others eyes and moved slightly closer and closer. Colby breathed his lungs full of Charlies scent as they went closer and closer...
"Are you okey in there, Professor Eppes?" A concerned voice came out hall and two men quickly separated.
"Yes, Bob, I just tripped", Charlie explained and flushed. Bob the cleaner just nodded and decided to leave two mens alone. Colby got on his feet and coughed.
"See you, Charlie", Colby said and almost ran out off the building as he left Charlie alone with his toughts.
He had been right, the day couldn't have been better.
