Chapter 11--The Curious
Nick first dropped off the blood sample to DNA. "Priority Number One," he demanded and quickly left to deal with the remaining evidence he'd just brought back to the lab. Nick couldn't help but steal glances at his watch or the clocks on the walls.
Archie walked in, with Sara right behind him. "Is it true? The dude looks just like Greg?" Archie asked with half a smile on his face. He shoved his hands into his pockets. "That's just wild."
Sara walked up beside Nick, "I can help you with these." Nick didn't argue and let her begin work on the evidence. She would have no trouble following his notes.
"Yeah, he does.," Nick said. "But not quite as...scruffy..." Nick carefully chose his words. His mind, however, whirled a rolodex full of words that described how he saw Greg...and how he felt about him.
Hodges popped his head around the corner. "Hear Sanders has got a twin. Weird. Two Gregs. Huh."
"No, there's only one Greg Sanders..." Nick said quietly. He wished everyone would just go away. (Except Sara, she can stay and work.) Nick's mind was now torn again between processing the evidence and being by Greg's side.

Just then Grissom walked in. "Don't you guys have work to do?" Archie and Hodges left the room at Grissom's words. Grissom then walked over to the table where Sara and Nick stood.
"Nick, they could use you down at the station. Both suspects are being questioned. Sara, could you finish this up?"
Sara looked at Grissom with a blank look, "Sure."
"Don't forget to sign off on the evidence, Nick." Grissom added.
"You bet. Thanks Gris..." Nick was out the door before anyone could say another word. He almost made it to the exit.
Bobby Dawson stood in a doorway, grinning and chewing gum. "So, I hear Greg's got a twin..."
