5A/N: Super long time since updating right? Hope you enjoy. I just rediscovered this unfinished story on my computer. Hopefully I have some inspiration to continue.
"Warrick, can I ask you a question?" Nick said as he and Warrick sorted out evidence on their case.
"Yeah man, shoot."
"Are you going to stay in Vegas? I mean Christina's here and you don't have to resign."
"Nick, we're a family. It wouldn't be the same. I'll explain the situation to her. If C loves me, she'll move wherever."
"I can't believe all this is happening" Sara said to Nick as they drove to pick up some food for the team, since they were staying at the lab for a while.
"Warrick's going to resign."
"Are you serious? This is his home. What about Christina?"
"Warrick said he would talk to her and that she would move if she loved him."
"Do you think they are going to stay together?"
"I have no idea." Nick said as he put his hand through his hair. Everything was starting to overwhelm him.
"What about Kate and Greg? They aren't engaged or anything. I know they are a lot closer, than C and Warrick."
"Well….Actually, Greg was supposed to propose at the end of the month."
"This whole mess is because of the stupid new head of crime." Sara said as she slammed the door as she got out of the car.
"Trust me, we all know that."
Greg, Nick, and Grissom were finishing up their meals, which Sara and Nick had bought, in the breakroom when they heard a noise they couldn't place. It was a cell phone, yet it was none of theirs.
Ring…Ring…
A cell phone rang from in-between one of the seats of the couch. Greg noticed it was Kate's and decided to answer it incase it was important.
"Hello" Greg said, not knowing who the caller was.
"Kate? Is this Kate Leonard's phone?" The man on the other line said.
"She's not here right now. May I ask who is calling?
"Chaz Croswell. I had a date with her 10 minutes ago, and she hasn't shown up yet. Who is this?"
"Greg, I…uh work with her." Greg said starting to realize why Kate hadn't been around him the past couple of days. Nick now knew this wasn't a good phone call. He could see the hurt on Greg's face.
"Oh. Are you a CSI too?" Chaz said interested
"…yeah. How did you meet Kate?"
"She and her friend…umm…umm...she works at CSI too…..oh Marissa. That's her name. She's blonde, super hot. She wasn't bad, except I'm more of a brunette man myself. Do you know her?"
"Yeah, I know her. Moving on?" Greg said
"Oh right…yeah it was late and I was this club….umm….what's its name?….umm"
"Does the name really matter?"
"I guess not, we'll I was there dancing and stuff, you know? And then these two really hot chicks walked past. So I followed them up to the bar and we started talking and stuff. After awhile the blonde one hooked up with some guy and left Kate there. So I gave her a ride home. We made plans to have drinks tonight and she didn't show up."
"Where were you guys supposed to have drinks at?….umm maybe I can retrace her steps." Greg said getting angrier after hearing the story about Chaz and Kate.
"Uhh…yeah…sure…Okay, that's a good idea since you're like a CSI guy. It was Wave at the end of the strip. Okay well if you see hear from her, I'll give her a half an hour, then I going to split. Nice meeting you. What's your name again?"
"Greg. Bye." As Greg hung up the phone, so many thoughts were wondering through his mind. He couldn't believe that she was going out with someone else, and then never showed up.
"Who was that?" Nick said in great curiosity. He only heard Greg's side of the conversation, and that alone was quite interesting.
"Kate's missing, this guy called claiming he had a date with her and she never showed up." Greg said placing Kate's phone in his pocket.
"Wow. We should go look for her." Nick said as he got out of his seat.
"Uh…Grissom can we go. I have to find her." Greg said as he also rose from his seat in anticipation to go find the only girl that meant so much to him.
"Sure, just be careful." With those parting words they were off.
