Why this must be read: Several of my favorite works by this author have been recced already, but I don’t feel a rec-list would be complete without something by her on it. The first of this pair of stories is pure Abby enthusiasm for her target/subject:
The second is Tony’s initially unenthusiastic follow-through:
Things heat up considerably from this point forward in Nix’s typically evocative style. Slake your thirst on Milkshakes and Coffee Induced Reality.

Abby let him have a couple of good swallows before she fixed him with her best fish-eyed glare and demanded, "So?"
He sighed. "I really don't want to talk about it."
"If you didn't want to talk about it, you wouldn't have spent four hours moping around my lab today," she said, supremely confident.
"Maybe I just wanted company," Tony argued.
"If you'd wanted company, you'd have made conversation. 'Fess up before I steal your milkshake and hold it hostage."
Tony slumped backwards in the booth and idly stirred the shake with his straw. "Okay then." He took a breath. Time to tap dance. "So. I, uh, I'm pretty sure I'm...in love."
"But Tony, that's great," Abby enthused. Tony scowled at her and she paused and grimaced a little. "Not great?"

The second is Tony’s initially unenthusiastic follow-through:
"Okay, then." Tony nodded to himself and bowed his head. Easier not to look Gibbs in the eye. Just spit it out. "I think I'm in love with you." Tony glanced up at Gibbs without really raising his head and found a smile tugging at the corner of Gibbs's lips, his eyes crinkling with amusement.
"You think?" Gibbs asked, raising an eyebrow. "You're not sure?"
