"Nick, why are you such in a hurry?," asked Sara trying to catch up to Nick.
Nick stopped and turn to Sara.
"I don't like the way he looked at you," said Nick.
"Who? That new guy?," asked Sara.
"Yeah, did you see the way he undressed you with his looks?," asked Nick pissed.
"I did feel a little uncomfortable just now," admitted Sara.
"I think you better stay away from him," said Nick.
"Are you jealous?," asked Sara with a huge grin on her face.
"Sara, that's beside the point, just stay away maybe he's dangerous," said Nick rising his voice.
"Nick, stop yelling at me," said Sara.
"I'm not yelling at you…,"
"Whatever," said Sara leaving Nick behind.
"Man, she's so stubborn," said Nick to himself.

Few hours later:
Sara is in the layout room examining the evidence from the DB case. Nick is processing the prints found on the scene at the print lab. Sara was so pissed with him, he's overreacting, he doesn't even know the new guy. What if he's a nice guy? He can't just judge him by his looks Her thoughts were broken by a hand on her shoulder. She was so startled.
"Oh my god, Chris you scared me," said Sara.
"Oh, sorry," said Chris.
"What are you doing here?," asked Sara.
"Sounds like you don't want me here," replied Chris smiling.
"No that's not what I meant, it's just didn't you have a case with Grissom?."
"Oh, we solved it already," said Chris proudly.
"Again, what are you doing here?,"
"I was just wondering if I could help you or I could take notes," said Chris showing his notepad.
"Why me?," asked Sara.
"Because if you wanna be the best, you have to learn from the best," said Chris.
"Awww, that's so sweet, Sara, remember, you have a boyfriend," thought Sara.
"Thanks, that's flattering, why don't we get started?," suggested Sara.
"Yeah, sure."
Sara is examining the evidence with Chris beside her when something went into her eye.
"Chris, there's something in my eye," said Sara.
"Where? Let me see it," said Chris.
"Here."
Sara opened her eyelids and Chris blows it. At that precise moment Nick is walking towards the layout room to apologize to Sara. He froze looking at Chris really close to Sara. He stood at the doorway, pissed really pissed.
"Hey, you son of a bitch," he ran towards Chris and tore him away from Sara. He punched him right on the nose and he landed on the floor.
"NICK!!, What the hell are you doing?," asked Sara rushing towards Chris.
"I saw you with that jerk," yelled Nick. His temperature when he saw Sara put Chris on her lap and her arm around her neck.
"I wasn't doing anything, there was something in my eyes, he wanted to blow it away, why can't you just trust me and stop being a jealous freak," yelled Sara.
She helps Chris to stand and they walk out of the room.
At the locker room:
"Are you okay, Chris?," asked Sara putting some ointment on his nose.
"Yeah, it's just a scratch,"
"You sure you don't want to go to the doctor?," asked Sara.
"Yeah, positive, so Nick's your boyfriend, huh?,"
"Yes, but I'd really appreciate it if you don't tell anyone about it," said Sara.
"Your secret's safe with me," assured Chris.
"Thanks, so this sure one hell of a first day, huh?."
"Yeah, tell me about it," replied Chris.
Nick walks into the room.
"Sara, we need to talk," said Nick as if Chris wasn't there.
"I think I should go, thanks Sara," said Chris.
Nick gives him a 'don't mess with me look' on his way out.
"Nick, what do you want?," asked Sara.
"I want to talk, Sara, is it true what you said just now?," asked Nick.
"Yes, don't you trust me?,"
"I do trust you but I don't trust him," explained Nick.
"I think his a good guy, he's been nothing but great, he even promised not to tell anything about us," said Sara.
"I'm sorry, Sara but I think you should be careful with him," advised Nick.
"I will," said Sara.
Nick leaned in and kiss Sara on the lips tenderly.
