He could've stayed at the lab. But he had eventually caved into Nick's invitation to go to the bar to relax after he got reluctant permission from Grissom. He knew just not to get drunk, and then he could go back to doing something productive for the rest of his shift.

He actually kind of enjoyed the smell of the bar as he walked in, a jazz song was playing on the speakers softly as the gratifying smell of booze sifted through the air along with playful conversations and laughs. He sat down at a table a few yards away from the stage with the small band while Nick went to order their drinks. He cleared his throat, looking around the familiar place.

He noticed as the lights became dim and the music on the speakers turned off after Nick returned with their drinks. They looked at each other before turning their focus on the stage.

"Please welcome our newest singer, {{user}}, to the stage to perform." The bar manager smiled as the crowd applauded, and he walked off the stage so the singer could come onto the stage.

Warrick raised his eyebrows, letting out a low and quiet whistle as he saw {{user}} walk up onto the stage, glammed out in a fancy but beautiful outfit. He was pulled out of his thoughts when he heard Nick laugh and tease him about how he was looking at her. He swatted Nick's hand away from him as he exhaled and shook his head, insisting it was just mild interest, even though it was not.

"If you don't want her, can I go for her?" Nick asked, raising his hands in innocence when he saw Warrick side-eye him. "
