Pairing: Snickers (Sara and Nick)
Now that Greg Sanders is an official CSI, two people wanted to see him dress the part.

Nick and Sara Conspire
On their night off, Nick and Sara are watching What Not to Wear on TLC. It was not a show that they would religiously watch, but they wanted to check it out. Sara was lying on the couch and had her head on Nick's lap and he was stroking her hair. It wasn't until the second commercial break that Sara sat up and gave Nick a grin that told him she wanted to conspire with him.
"Sara Stokes, what is going on in that mind of yours?" Nick asked.
"I was thinking about Greg," she said. "Ever since he passed his final proficiency exam and became a full fledged CSI Level One, he needs some guidance."
"We give that former lab rat all the guidance he needs," Nick insisted.
"I don't mean professionally," she said. "I meant he needs guidance on the wardrobe department."
"I see where you are going with this," Nick smiled. "He is now one of us and he has to look the part."
"Let's turn on that computer and check out the website," Sara said. "We need to know how to nominate Sanders for a wardrobe overhaul and fashion intervention."
Nick was already on the internet when Sara went looking for an extra chair. She sat next to him and they were looking at the TLC site. He finally got to the What Not to Wear page and looked for information on nominating a potential fashion victim.
"Aha, I found it!" Nick beamed after he clicked the link.
"I hope we don't have to tell him," Sara said.
"He can't find out until Stacy and Clinton ambush him," Nick said. "It says there has to be a surprise. If he knows about it, the application will be nullified."
Sara helped Nick fill out the application. They mentioned that Greg likes to dress up like he's either going to a rock concert or is a walking advertisement/souvenir for one. One time he was wearing a neon green shirt that could be used as a back up if all the lights in the crime lab went out. It could have blinded someone. Also his spiky hair could impale somebody. He needs to look like a crime scene investigator, but still have a sense of youth being that Greg is pushing 30. To sum it up, his wardrobe is a crime scene in its own right. Satisfied with their responses, they submitted the application. Nick gave Sara a high five, embraced each other and kissed each other. Sara turned off the computer.
"So Nick, where do you want the ambush Greg scene?" Sara said when they were already in bed. "We can't have it in the crime lab. Grissom will be pissed about it. Even that scumbag Ecklie would demand an explanation."
"Sara, I have an awesome plan," Nick said. "We will take Greggo and his latest girlfriend Cecilia or Elizabeth out to lunch. There is that new Japanese restaurant that cooks the food at your table. Then, Stacy and Clinton will give that lab rat turned CSI the biggest surprise of his life."
"You know they have to fly him out to New York," Sara said. "How are you going to talk to Grissom about it? Are you going to let him in on it?"
"I had a private talk with Grissom," Nick said. "He thought that if Greg is selected, the kid will be allowed to go."
"At least Grissom is helping us cover our own asses," Sara said. "Maybe that strange girl who was with us briefly could take over for Greg."
"I doubt it," Nick said. "We drove her nuts by complaining about the way she worked."
"I think she could put up and shut up for a week," Sara said. "It builds character!"
"Now, how many times have I told you that?" Nick said. "The Former Ms. I'm-Too-Proud-To-Ask-For-Help has finally come to her senses!"
"Nick, stop that, please!" Sara said. "Let's get some sleep. We have the night off so we could catch up on some shuteye!"
"Okay, you win," he capitulated. "I love you!"
"Aw, you are so sweet when you surrender," Sara said. "And I love you, too!"
Sara cuddled into Nick's arms and they drifted off to sleep dreaming about how Greg would react to the surprise that would be in store for him.
