Whaddya know, it's my month for CSI. Most will probably be slash, mainly Nick/Greg, but I'll try and include some gen, maybe another pairing. Let's get this van moving, eh?
Fandom: CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
Pairing: Nick/Greg

Why this must be read: Okay, this is one of my favorite post-Grave Danger pieces out there right now. It being Nick/Greg simply makes it better.
This one shows exactly how Greg is absolutely not dealing with Nick’s ordeal that sprung on them with no warning. He thinks he has to be strong for Nick, and hides his own problems with everything deep down inside. The way the author gives Greg reassurance is incredibly moving and the words she says it with are all just amazing. Enough? Yes? Okay. Why don’t you just go read it, huh? You’ll melt into a puddle of goo from the cuteness, I promise.
Nick holds on so tightly that Greg can’t move and buries his face in Greg’s neck. Greg rubs his back in long, soft strokes, reveling in the flex and relax of the muscles as Nick takes deep breaths to calm himself. He’s counted fifteen before he realizes he’s been counting and he frowns, kissing the soft skin where Nick’s neck becomes shoulder.
..and!
“When I was, um—when I was down there,” Nick pauses to take a breath and Greg tights his arms around Nick’s waist. “I had these really vivid, fucking awful hallucinations, and it took me a really long time to convince myself that the entire rescue wasn’t just another one, that I wasn’t going to snap out of it and be back down there, seconds closer to dying.” Greg winces and presses his face into Nick’s chest. “But I’m here. And I’m alive, and I’m a little fucked up, but I’m going to be fine. I am fine, considering, and I’m alive, and you’re here with me, and that’s all that really matters. I love you, and that’s it. Everything else, we’ll deal with.”
