More Than Blood (Gil)

[Nick Stokes]

Nick leaned over the sparkling white desk which had been recently cleaned to look at the door where Gil was supposed to be coming through. He had asked to meet Nick in the DNA room about a case that he was working on. The killer murdered his victims by strangling them with a belt but always took a pint of their blood, Nick had found some that didn't match the victim and hoped that the were the killers.

However Gil had got the results first and was coming to the lab to talk with him about them. The problem being that the blood was found at the scene as could of been from another CSI who had a nose blood during picking up the evidence or the victims blood could have been mixed with something else. Nick still wasn't giving up hope, not yet, not of he could help it.

Finally he saw the doors swing open and Nick grinned at his boss before frowning at his hands. He was holding something and it looked like the results. "You wanted to see me Gil?" he asked as he lifted an eyebrow.

Gil left his office with the results in his hands, he shook his head at them. It was a negative and Nick had been trying so hard to get some good evidence, they would have to check the CCTV footage that had only been brought in that morning. He soon reached the other male in the lab where he looked glumly at him.

"Yes i did want to see you about the DNA, it didn't match the victims blood so back to square one. i want you to be on the case don't blow your cover and don't give up i want you check all of the security cameras and see if you can spot any suspicious people, i am counting on you Nick"

Gil looked at the other male waiting to see his reaction he knew it wouldnt be good and he felt bad in himself, Nick had tried so hard but there would be other evidence he was sure of that.

The grin disappeared from Nicks face and he lowered his head. The little hope that he had was now gone, he thought he had something but it turned out to be nothing yet again. He slammed his fist on the table before looking up at Gil with a frown. Nick sighed and nodded at the other male suggested that he looked at the CCTV.

"Yeah ok" he muttered to Gil "You going to come with me?" Nick knew that Gil knew how much it meant to solve a case, Nick couldn't stand leaving one open due to not finding enough evidence. He felt that the dead deserved for their killer to be behind bars and he wanted to do that. Hence why he became a CSI. Although he often lost his temper at moments like this when it seemed hopeless. "Sorry" he said to his boss about hitting his hand on the table which he rubbed with his other one.
