A/N I have had this story stuck in my head since Love for Sale. I wanted to portray a jealousy side of Morgan, in FF world hoping to push them together. Maybe on the show as well! :)
Thanks K for the help on this! You are awesome!
disclaimer: Do not own anything on CSI...Would like to meet them! :)
Enjoy!
Ch.1Jealousy rears its green ugly head
It'd been one week since the murder involving the brothel, and finally the questions had stopped towards Greg and Nick. Not that they both were complaining, a red blooded American man could always appreciate a beautiful woman, but Nick only had one woman in mind-his soon to be wife Sara. Greg had only one woman on his mind as well, but had not worked up the courage to ask her out yet. He saw her day after day, they'd spent countless hours together after work, yes Greg Sanders was in love with Morgan Brody. Now if he could only ask her out.
Finn and Morgan had been working the past couple of cases this week. A few B&Es in Henderson had kept them busy, but this did not stop Finn from telling Morgan all about the brothel case. "I know Nick couldn't deny he was looking at the girls, I was looking at the girls. They were beautiful, but Greg..." She pauses and chuckles. "Greg seemed too nervous, which is not what I expected out of him. The man is a gorgeous walking sex bomb. After seeing him checking foot prints and flirting with the girls, they even asked for him to do the printing. The "cute CSI guy". I stepped away and watched the interaction. He looked really nervous, I don't know why. It's not like he is attached to anyone. The madam said he could choose whatever he liked. He shied away from it. But I think I heard him talking to one about setting up something. Who knows you know?"
Morgan was feeling ill. "How could I have been so stupid. All those dinners and breakfast together, I thought it meant more than that! Now he's ogling those whores! I could compete with them. Put me in a stilettos, lacy panties and a sexy bra with stockings. In fact I have a picture taken by Dita Von Teese! He would flip! UGH! I'm just too mad about all this! He flirts with me, asks if we are doing something after shift, the kiss..."
Finn had been watching Morgan at this point with a smile on her face. She knew both CSIs had feelings bad for each other. Why they've not acted on it she couldn't understand. Hopefully what she just put in Morgan's ear will be the push. "Finn are we done here?" "Sure Morgan go if you need to. I will take all this back in to log in. Its a case closed anyway. The kids from both houses on the street were breaking into each others houses.
Morgan throws all her stuff into her Denali and heads back to the Crime lab. The more she drove the more her anger went up. Banging on the steering wheel she started screaming, nothing making since. Finally the tears started to follow. "WHY I CAN'T I JUST TELL HIM I LOVE HIM? HOW FUCKING HARD IS IT? WHY CAN'T HE ADMIT HIS FEELINGS? I PRACTILY THREW MYSELF AT HIM IN THE LOCKEROOM. THE KISS...}SNIFF{ WAS AMAZING! I thought when we broke off that he would finally ask me. All he said "Was wow!" "Then we just watched a movie. A FREAKING MOVIE! UUUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Pulling into the car park she pulled into a slot. Looking around she didn't see Greg's yet. She hopped out and grabbed her evidence checking it in, and then to Hodges.
"Hey Morgan. Are you ok?" "I'm Fine Hodges. Just a lot on my mind. Um can you get started on these, and let me know?" OK sure, but is there anything I can do for you?" Morgan is trying not to cry, feeling more upset, and mad, but it's a loosing battle. She shakes her head and sobs into arms. Hodges whispers softly in her ear that whatever it is, it will be ok.
Greg had been looking all around the lab for Morgan. He finally spotted her, but he didn't like what he was seeing. She appeared to be crying in Hodges arms. He was whispering in her ear. "What the hell! I thought she was into me not him! Why can't she come to me with problems? I'd gladly help her. Id take her to my place, run the Jacuzzi tub full, fill it with her jasmine oil, light the candles just how she likes it." SIGH Greg walks into the locker room and sits down with his hands in head staring at the ground.
Morgan walks in and freezes. Seeing Greg there provokes the anger and defeat, "Shit! I was not expecting him." Before she could move he'd seen her. "Morgan" Softly spoken she barely heard her name from his lips. Turning she saw that he standing now with this hurt look on his face. "What were you doing with Hodges? I thought you said there was nothing going on there?" Morgan just started with her mouth opened. "How dare he get mad over that. Why would he think I'm into him?" Morgan was getting angrier by the minute. "Excuse me? Last I heard you had several women at your disposal but you know that is ok because we aren't a couple. I was stupid to think that our dinners, breakfasts, drinks after work, and all the conversations we've had meant something. So please just stop. David was just offering comfort to me." "All that you said, I have loved spending time with you. Its been the highlight of my life. I look forward to getting off work and being with you. I can offer you comfort baby. I was thinking of having you coming over and filling up the Jacuzzi tub for you, using the oils and candles you like..."Greg offers his cute smile, shoulders up, hands out to her to see he is being sincere and a bit goofy.
Morgan's inner thoughts are going crazy. "That is sweet with what he said, but he didn't say a damn word about the brothel whores." Morgan crosses are arms at Greg and leans against the locker. "You know if you can't even own up to what you did, then I don't want you coming over. Oh, and one more thing IF you want to be with me...ITS ME AND ME ONLY! NO brothel trips!"
With that Morgan turned around and walked out. She made it to the car park before she started to cry. "Morgan...Morgan!" She turned around to see Sara calling her name. "Hey want to get a drink?" Morgan didn't have to think about it long... "Who's driving? Because I say neither of us and we get a cab and hit the strip!" Sara laughed "Sounds fun to me. I'll text Nick and let him know. I'm off tonight and he isn't Do you want to ask Finn?" "Um no. Just us is that ok?" "it is, are you ready? Go home change and meet me at my house."
15 minutes later Morgan pulled up in front of Sara and Nick's house. She was wearing a mini skirt with an off the shoulder light blue shirt. Stilettos topped off the outfit. She just need to look her best and feel beautiful. "Wow Morgan! Looking great!" Sara was stunned. She was in a red halter top that showed off her belly button (Nick loved it) black slacks with a pair of flats. She'd curled her hair just right, where as Morgan had curled her in long spiral curls. These girls were ready to hit the strip. "Sara you look amazing!" "Here's the cab lets go!" The girls got in the cab and were off to hit the Vegas Strip for a much needed night out.
