Summary: Drabble using prompt #002 Middles.

It was in the middle of a case when Nick suddenly sensed that he was being watched. He turned around and found himself under the intense focus of Gil Grissom. His blue eyes were fixed on him as if he were a very interesting bug. And Nick could see the question in them. Under the victims were children. Could he go through it? Nick gave him a court nod. But right in this moment the stretcher with one of the boys was rolled by, and Nick lost it, punching the doorframe in blind rage.

He missed Gil's wincing. And the look in Gil's eyes...helpless because in the middle of this all he wasn't able to help him.
