Greg, Nick and Warrick sat around their usual table at a bar they liked to go to after a hard case.
"Okay, so what do we know so far?" asked Greg, taking a sip of beer.
"Well, Sara knew Grissom's kid from ten years ago, right after she met Grissom. They got on well and they where going to have dinner tomorrow night but he had to cancel. His mother was Grissom's best friend and she died when she Adam was fifteen. Anything else?" nick stated as if summing up a case.
"Only that it would kill Grissom if they go out." Warrick added.
"Do you think he is that much of a threat though?" Greg asked, "I mean, they act more like friends than anything else and Sara likes older guys." He finished, trying to sound like a kicked puppy.
"We'll just have to see what happens, hopefully nothing between Adam and Sara." Warrick concluded.
They continued chatting for a while until Greg looked up and suddenly stopped talking.
"Greg, you okay?" Nick asked puzzled by his friend's sudden silence.
Greg snapped his head back, "ohh, yeah, fine, I just saw someone I thought I knew but it wasn't them." He quickly covered trying to sound truthful.
"Yeah, okay man, listen I better get some more drinks." Nick said getting up.
"No! I mean…I'll get them you stay here with warrick." And before nick had a chance to answer Greg left the table and went to the 'get more drinks'. Looking back he saw that Nick and Warrick had continued chatting and he let out a breath he didn't know he was holding. Heading to the other side of the bar he quickly found 'the person he knew'.
"Adam, hi. How are you?" Adam looked up quickly to see Greg standing in front of him, a little nervous.
"Ah, hi Greg. I'm okay, how are you?"
"Fine. Look umm, Nick and Warrick are here, I know you won't want to join us but I just think you should know." and with that he left, leaving a puzzled yet thankful Adam behind.
"Who was that?" a man asked Adam coming up from the bar carrying drinks. Adam smiled.
"Ohh, just someone I work with, Greg. He was telling me that a few of my colleagues are here, warning me I think." Rex sat down and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"They don't 'know' and both dad and I thought it should wait awhile. Well, two people know, three now I guess."
"Seems like a nice guy." Rex shrugged. "Anyway, I am sorry we have to cancel dinner with Sara tomorrow."
"That's fine, she didn't mind at all. She said she'll come over another day."
"I'd like that."
