Nick/Greg ficlet: Prove it

[gothikmaus]

Title: Prove it
Fandom: CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
Pairing: Nick/Greg
Rating: PG-13/Teen
Summary: Greg learns something unexpected about Nick.
A/N: Inspired by the following dialogue prompt by creativepromptsforwriting on Tumblr:

"Well, since I do like you, it doesn't seem like I am."

"You okay, Greg?"
