A/N: I'm not feeling any love cries since I'm not getting a lot of review I'm not going to drag this out. Maybe a couple more chapters after this unless I start to feel the love.
Danny walked back into the break room about 3 hours later. The crime scene had been one of the weirdest he had been on.
"How is your first night going?"
Danny looked up to see Nick standing there.
"Okay, I guess. Just not use to Las Vegas yet." Danny said.
"Don't feel bad. I'm from Texas it took me forever to get use to it." Nick said with a grin.
There was something about Nick that Danny liked. He just had this easy going personality that Danny liked. About that time Sara walked into the lab.
"I swear if I have to put up with any more crap today" Sara said as she walked to the coffee maker.
"What happen?" Danny asked.
"Don't ask don't tell." Nick said watching Sara.
Danny knew that look in Nick's eye it was the same look he use to give Lindsay before they got together. Danny just watched as Nick got up and walked over to Sara. The batter between them was too much for Danny. It reminded him too much of Lindsay.
"I'm going to go check on my DNA results." With that said Danny all but ran from the room.
"What was that about?" Sara asked as she took a drink of her coffee.
"I don't know. Maybe I'll go talk to him. It must not be easy being the new guy and so far from home." Nick said as he started for the door.
"Okay." Was all Sara said as Nick left the room.
Nick found Danny in the locker room after shift looking at a picture of a pretty little brunette. "She's pretty." Nick said snapping Danny out of his day dream.
"Yeah, her name is Lindsay."
"She the reason you here" Nick could tell the man needed to talk and he was all ears.
"Yeah, she is a co-worker back in New York…."for the next hour Danny spilled his guts about Lindsay and finally ended with. "And she was the one that said I should come here for a couple weeks to see if this is what I really want."
Nick had been quiet the whole time mainly because he had been thinking about Sara.
"When I saw you and Sara in the break room it was me and Lindsay all over again only this time I wasn't apart of it. If that makes any sense?" Danny said.
At this Nick turned his attention back to Danny "What do you mean me and Sara?"
Danny looked at Nick like he was crazy. "Oh come on man, you have that same look in your eye that I have for Lindsay. Why don't you ask her out already? I'm sure there are people here that would make a killing if you did." Danny said with a grin.
"What are you talking about? Sara and I are just friends." Nick couldn't believe the newbie could see what he had been hiding for so long.
"Sure, I told myself that for about six months after Lindsay started working with us. Then a good friend of ours was in a bombing, my bother in a coma, and my best friend was murdered. It made me think about my life and what I really wanted. I figured out I wanted Lindsay. She sat with me when I was with my brother. She held me when I cried for my best friend. She helped me laugh at the stupid things Don had done that got me through his bombing. Think of the darkest moment in your life and think about what all Sara did for you and then you tell me what I'm talking about."
Nick sat there and thought about when he had been buried alive. How afterward everyone acted like he was glass and would break any minute. Everyone that is but Sara, she came over with movies and takeout like nothing had changed. She held him tight when the nightmares got too much and put him in his place when the depression was going to consume him.
"Okay, I see what you're saying, but she did all that because she was my friend." Nick wasn't about to let up that easy.
Danny was determined to get Nick to see what was right in front of him. "Okay what about the rest of your friends how did they act? Did Catherine come over all the time? Did she wipe away your tears? I didn't think so. I'm not sure what happen to you, but I'm sure you're just don't wanting to come to terms with what I'm telling you. So get off your ass and go ask her to dinner, because if you won't I will. I mean I am the newbie, someone has to show me around town and she does remind me of Lindsay." Danny said with a smirk. The look on Nick's face was priceless.
"You wouldn't?" Nick said starting to stand up.
"Wanna bet?" Danny didn't look up to see Nick rush out the door and hear a "Sara?" before the door closed.
Thought I'd put a little Snickers in here for good measure.
