Stuck With You

A/N: Again, I don't own anything. Everybody gets the picture, so on with the story. I hope ya'll like this one. This is my first CSI: New York fic. Expect others. )

"Stella?" He called as the lights dimmed. "Stella, are you alright?"

"Fine." She whimpered, pulling herself into a sitting position.

Mac nodded in affirmation and reached for the emergency phone, calling security. Meanwhile, Stella removed her jacket and started to relax.

Sighing, Mac announced, "Of course we had to be the last people to leave. Even security's gone."

"So we're stuck here for the rest of the night?" She stated rather than asked.

"Yep." He answered as he lowered himself against the wall so he was sitting right next to her.

"I'm bored already." Stella complained, throwing her head back to rest against the wall.

He watched as she closed her eyes, sighing deeply. Mac also removed his jacket and rolled up his sleeves.

"Be thankful you're not claustrophobic. Think what a situation this would be." He said as he moved to the opposite side of the elevator, giving him a better view of her profile.

"Truth or dare?" Stella suddenly asked, finding something to amuse herself.

Mac looked at her with one eyebrow raised. "Truth or dare, Stella? We're not teenagers."

"Pwease Mac? I'm really bored!" she begged in a whiny, childish voice.

Mac weighed his options carefully. Either choose truth and confess something embarrassing, or choose dare and do something embarrassing.

"Truth." He said boldly.

Stella furrowed her eyebrows together in thought. He watched as a flicker of some emotion flashed through her eyes. It was, however, gone before he could analyze it.

"Are you really over Claire?" Stella asked with slight hesitance.

"I'm never going to stop loving her." Mac told her. "But yes, I'm ready to move on."

She smiled slightly and nodded her head in approval.

"Your turn, truth or dare?" he retaliated.

"Truth." Blurted Stella without a second thought.

"Are you sure you're ready to move on after Frankie?"

"I'm getting there." She replied honestly. "Truth or dare?"

"Dare." Mac answered bravely.

He instantly regretted his choice. Stella now held a scary mischievous glint in her beautiful green eyes.

"I dare you…"

TBC……. Duh duh duh….. (Dramatic music) cliffhanger. Lol.
