Flack and Stella entered the break room and found it buzzing with activity. Lab techs and CSI's mingled with the few detectives unlucky enough to have been in the building at the time of the short. Mac and Peyton were just finishing their coffee preparations and Mac handed the pot off to Flack. The detective poured two mugs, handing one to Stella after doctoring it the way he knew she drank it. His kind gestured surprised her, but she accepted it gratefully.

Danny and Lindsay stumbled into the room a short time later and made their way to the coffee as well. Inspection of the cupboards led to the discovery that there was only one mug left. Danny filled it and handed it to Lindsay. She added only one sugar and a tiny dab of cream. Taking a sip she couldn't hide her grimace at its bitter taste. Danny chuckled and leaned over to whisper something in her ear. She laughed a little and added more cream and sugar. She took another sip, then handed the cup to Danny. They took a seat in a secluded corner of the break room and waited for Mac's update.

"Tech services contacted me this morning," the supervisor began, "The electrical short did more damage to the building's wiring than was initially predicted, but they should have us out of here by noon today." Groans sounded from around the room. Mac raised his hand for quiet.

"As for the workday, there are plenty of cold cases. Run DNA through CODIS and prints through AFIS. Try to set up appointments to meet with possible suspects. Flack noticed that the Messer-Monroe coffee mug was resting safely in Lindsay's hands, and she was enjoying it immensely. Flack watched as she offered it to Danny again, then laughed at the face he made.

"Get to it," Mac said, "I'll work on seeing what we can do for food." The crowd slowly left the room, but Danny and Lindsay stayed behind to let the rush end.

Flack approached with his refilled cup of coffee and extended it to Danny, who accepted gratefully.

"I can't stand all the sugar Montana puts in hers," he muttered. Lindsay just smiled sweetly at him, sticking her tongue out for a brief moment. Danny wrinkled his nose and shook his head at her.

"Alright, Messer, enough flirting with Lindsay," Stella said, "get to work."

"Yes, ma'am," Danny said, saluting Stella. He stood and headed for his office. Lindsay followed a short distance behind. Flack and Stella watched them leave, then turned to each other. Their eyes met for a moment and their eyes asked the same question. Each nodded. There was no way those two were not together. Now to catch them in the act.
