A/N: Anyone who knows me will know that I don't like it when things run smoothly, thats not how life works, and besides what fun is that?
Greg had been busy documenting photos and writing notes on the case. Russell walked into the room. "Hey Greg, what's up with Morgan?"
"No idea, why?"
"She seemed slightly… off today. You wouldn't know anything about that would you?" Russell inquired.
Greg shrugged "Ask Finn."
"I already have, she wouldn't tell me anything."
"Ask Sara."
"Greg, I'm asking you."
"Well I'm telling you that I don't know." Greg walked out of the room, fed up of being questioned. He filed paperwork until the end of his shift and then decided to head home. He started to think over the past months he had spent with Morgan. More specifically he started to think about the past week, what had he done to upset her so much? Maybe her cared too much and she wasn't ready for that. Crap, maybe he pushed her too far after all they had been spending less and less time together after that night. He needed to let her know that he was willing to give her space if she needed it. That's when it hit him, he loved her. He, Greg Sanders, was in love with Morgan Brody. Damn, he couldn't think like that, not if that's why she was so upset today. He had to know where they stood, of course he wasn't going to do it over the phone but she might have been busy. He picked up his phone and dialed Morgan's number, he got her Voicemail.
"Hey Morgan, it's Greg, can you call me back as soon as possible please? I really want to talk. Thanks" He hung up. Oh gosh, did that sound like he was forcing her to talk… he couldn't do much about it now. Okay so he was probably overthinking everything. He decided it was best to call someone who would know what to do about this.
Morgan arrived back at her apartment and unlocked the door. Once inside she sat down and dialed Catherine's number. The phone rang twice before she heard Catherine's voice on the other end. "Hey, good timing I just got out of work. How did today go?"
"Can you come over? Sorry to bother you like this…"
"I take it that today wasn't great then. Sure I can be there in 10; it's no trouble at all. I'll see you soon." The line went dead.
Morgan got up and put the kettle on. She made herself some herbal tea to calm and relax sat down on the sofa and turned on the television. She found that her mind kept wandering to her run in with Greg earlier that day. He was so concerned. Maybe I should have told him. No. This is something we need to talk about in private. I'm not that far along and I have only know for a day. This doesn't feel right. I need to tell him. I'm going to tell him, he has the right to know whether or not he wants to be involved. That settled it she was going to tell him, tonight. I hope I'm doing the right thing. There was a knock at the door.
"It's open." Morgan called. Catherine pushed the door open and went to join Morgan on the sofa.
"So, how did the shift go?"
"Honestly not great. Everyone knows something's up."
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"Not really."
"Alright. Listen if you need anything from me just ask." Catherine wanted to be there for Morgan, she needed someone to depend on, now more than ever. "Do you want me to stop by the lab sometime? They're all old friends, I'd love to catch up, I'm sure they wouldn't mind. It might make things easier on you."
"You would do that for me?" Morgan wasn't used to someone putting her first.
"Of course, if you'd like me to then I'd be more than happy."
"Thanks Catherine. Do you mind staying here tonight though? I just really don't feel like being alone."
"Why don't you come to mine?" Catherine suggested "There's a spare room." Catherine wanted Morgan to feel more comfortable and at home around her, and she figured that having her over would help.
"Sure, if you don't mind."
"Not at all, why don't you pack a bag and I'll meet you downstairs."
"Wait." Catherine turned back to face the blonde. "Can you take my things to yours? I'll drive over myself, there's something I want to do first."
Catherine nodded. "I'll see you at mine"
Please review, it means so much to me when you do :D
