Chapter Six
As I walk down the halls at work I can't keep a smile off of my face. Last night was the best night of my life despite running into my ex-girlfriend. The memory of last night keep running through my head and is making it hard for me to concentrate on my work, at least there is no case we are working on though so I am not too worried about it.
Slowly I walk into the break room and sit down on one of the chairs. I am only sitting here a moment before a smile once again forms on my face because last night runs across my mind yet again...
Once we pull into my driveway I kill the engine and step out of my truck. Greg meets me at my front door and I place my key in the lock. As soon as the door is open I tell Greg to make himself at home and he does so by taking a seat on my couch. There is the anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach as I stare at his form. He looks so at ease in my home, almost like he belongs here. Who knew that I could feel this way about him?
"Do you want something to drink?" I ask as soon as the door is locked; something I do out of habit.
"Sure, what do you have?"
"A variety of things, just tell me what you want and I'll tell you if I have it."
"A Coke will be fine."
"Okay, good thing I have it then." I say with a smile before walking into the kitchen.
As soon as I have two Cokes I walk back into the living room and place them on the coasters on the coffee table. After a moment of silence I ask if he would like to listen to music and he simply nods his head. I know that he isn't into the type of music that I am, but I am trying to broaden his horizons so I put Keith Urban on.
He just smiles at me and takes my hand in his; squeezing gently. This simple gesture makes my heart swell and I can't stop a smile from forming on my features.
"I honestly never thought that this night would ever happen." Greg tells me truthfully, looking down at our hands with a blush on his cheeks.
"For a while there I didn't either." I tell him honestly. "But I'm glad it has."
This earns me a genuine smile from him and I am so relieved to see it, he has to have the most adorable smile I have ever seen. I used to think it was dorky and I still do, but that is what I like so much about it. To me everything about him is... well, irresistible.
"Sorry about earlier, I had no idea we would run into my ex-girlfriend... I didn't even know she lived here. I hope you didn't feel too uncomfortable." I say as I lower my head shamefully.
"Hey don't even worry about it, it was a coincidence. Sure it was rather awkward, no denying that, but it couldn't have been avoided. There is no need for you to apologize."
I believe what he says, but I am also sure that it made him feel weird because I didn't tell her that we were on a date. I know I should probably explain my actions to him, but at the same time I feel as though it is unnecessary. If there is anything between us and a relationship develops then I will tell him I am not ashamed of him or my being gay for that matter, but as of right now... it shouldn't be a priority.
"I'm having a really great time." His voice brings me out of my thoughts.
"So am I, thanks for going out with me tonight and suggesting that awesome restaurant."
"That was no problem, trust me.” He says with a shy smile.
"Sorry for being kind of an ass before, I'm usually not like that." I say referring to how I acted before I realized how much I liked him.
"I know you're not Nick, you're the most polite person I know. Even when you were annoyed by me you were still a gentleman."
"I wasn't that nice to you Greg, there was no gentleman in my actions toward you."
"Well that doesn't really matter now, we have a chance for a clean start. I'm not holding anything against you so you should let your past actions go."
How could I have not noticed how much of a sweetheart Greg is? I am clueless to this and I can't stop myself from reaching out to him. With my hand on the back of his neck I pull him closer until my lips make contact with his. I can feel him smile against the kiss and that just urges me to go further. I move both of my hands until they are cupping his face and I tilt my head to deepen the kiss. His arms make their way around my waist and he gently pulls me closer before running his tongue along my bottom lip asking for entrance. I gladly grant him access to my mouth and it seems like forever before our tongues finally meet.
Gently I push against his chest until he is lying on his back and I lay my body half way on top of his. With my tongue I explore every inch of his mouth, getting to know the foreign territory. He does some exploring of his own; I don't think there is a spot on my back and arms that his hands haven't touched. As the kiss becomes more aggressive and we begin panting into each other's mouths my hands trail lower. First my hands caress his quivering chest and stomach before continuing their way south.
He releases a gasp into my mouth when I reach the front of his jeans and apply pressure; rubbing ever so slightly. When I caress his hardening member at a faster pace he lets out a low moan and it sends shivers down my spine straight to my dick. I release a groan of disappointment however when he pulls away and gently pushes me into a sitting position before sitting up as well.
"I think we should take things slowly…" He pants out. "If you don't mind."
"No of course not, I completely agree. There is no need to rush into anything." I agree as I try to get some oxygen into my lungs.
He gives me a genuine smile and leans his back against my chest, instantly I wrap my arms around him. He lays his head on my shoulder and I softly caress his arm as we listen to Keith Urban; both feeling comfortable in our embrace.
There's a new wind blowing like I've never known
I'm breathing deeper than I've ever done
And it sure feels good to finally feel the way I do
I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you
And I'm letting go of all my lonely yesterdays
I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made
Now there's just one thing, the only thing I wanna do
I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you
"Well I have to say that I haven't seen you smile like that in a long time." Warrick's voice startles me out of my memory and I blush deeply when I nearly fall out of my chair. "What's got ya so happy man?"
"What? A guy can't smile when he's in a good mood?" I ask innocently.
"Not that kind of smile." He replies as he sits down across from me. "Come on Nicky, spill it."
"I went on a date with Greg last night." I say with a blush on my cheeks, I am not used to being so open about my private life... even if Warrick is a good friend of mine.
"Finally? I was wondering how long it would take for you two to get together." He says slapping me on the back. "So how was it?"
"It was better than I could have ever expected." I say with what I am sure is a dazed expression on my face. "We went to dinner at this awesome Italian restaurant; the food is amazing there by the way. We ran into my ex-girlfriend when we were leaving however, but surprisingly that didn't ruin it for us. We went back to my house and talked for a while, but for most of the night I just held him in my arms while we listened to music."
"You are such a hopeless romantic Nicky." He says with a shake of his head, but there is a smile on his face.
"Can you believe I actually got him to listen to country music?"
"Oh my God hell has frozen over!" He exclaims teasingly.
"You're such a dork." I say with a laugh as I lightly punch his arm. "You should seriously think about taking Catherine to that Italian restaurant though, I guarantee that you will enjoy yourself."
"Yeah I'll definitely keep that in mind, I'll have to get directions from you."
"If you guys are done talking we have DB waiting for you." Grissom's voice can be heard and I turn my head to see him standing in the doorway.
"Location?" I ask; immediately in job mode.
"The Palms Hotel, you guys can ride with me." He says with a hint of a smirk on his features before walking away.
"I'll give you directions later." I tell Warrick as I stand up.
He simply nods his head as he follows me out of the room. We grab our kits before heading out of the building. Once we reach the Tahoe I get in on the passenger side and Warrick gets in the back seat. The drive starts out silent, but I can feel Gil's eyes on me every time he glances in my direction. I keep my eyes out the passenger side window though and can't stop my mind from drifting to Greg, which in turn causes that goofy smile to return to my features.
God I am in deep! I think to myself as the smile widens.
