When David arrived at work that day he knew immediately something was wrong. The air was thick with tension and he neither heard laughter nor saw a smile in the hallway and the rooms he passed. Either something was going on or somebody stole the darn coffee again. He doubted it was the latter when he saw Grissom talking furiously on the phone with someone else.
"Nick's been WHAT?!" he practically screamed into the phone.
At the mention of his boyfriend's name, his ears perked up and he tried his best to look as though he was occupied, standing in the middle of the hallway, trying his best not to make it seem obvious that he wanted to linger around and eavesdrop on the conversation his boss was having with someone else on the phone. It's not everyday that Grissom gets angry until he has to raise his voice, let alone do it in the middle of shift and in the hallway where anyone and everyone could hear him.
A head popped out of a nearby room and the golden long hair told him it was Catherine.
"What's up? Is everything okay?" she asked softly, her motherly voice and actions in full mode.
"Nick's been abducted, get your kit, we need to get to scene before anything else happens," he answered as he took off his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose and walked down the hallway, ignoring the stares he received through the glass doors and windows.
David couldn't stand the silence anymore. His heart was screaming at him to do something before it burst from the fear, the worry that gripped him so hard. He ran after Catherine who was already in her office and without a single greeting, he merely said,
"Nicky's been abducted?!"
Catherine's eyes turned into slits and she caught the name, instead of Stokes, instead of Nick he said Nicky. Interesting. But now was not the time to give him a full blown diagnosis, she had a team mate to find. She merely shrugged, not too sure if she should let the information leak out to a mere technician who just happened to have an interest in eavesdropping on coversations. Grissom wouldn't approve of it anyway.
"Oh save the bullshit Willows, I heard the man. Has Nicky been abducted?" he asked again, more firmly this time.
Her eyes widened at the mention of the name again and stared at him in silence.
"Catherine, I need to know. Please," David's voice cracked as added the last word, he had to know, had to know if Nicky was alright, had to know if he would come home after shift happy and okay, had to know if they were ever going to see each other again.
Catherine Willows nodded.
David could hardly hear himself think, he wasn't even sure if he could think. His heart was racing, the pulse so loud in his ears he felt like screaming at it to stop, he wanted to do something, anything, everything he could to get his Nicky back, back from where ever he was. He wanted Nicky back home again, they would cuddle on the couch and watch a cheesy movie but that wasn't the point, the point was to be together. He wanted Nicky back now.
"If there's anything I can do," he choked out before retreating back to his domain of glass all the while twisting around the ring on his finger.
