The Pieces of my Life
In a Different Light
Fandom: CSI/West Wing
Pairing: Greg/Ellie
Notes: For the LiveJournal CSI100 crossover challenge. Also for brokendownrage who asked me to write Greg fic, and has listened to me grouse about the guy not shutting up since.
Paula Francis talks about a speech that redefined foreign policy, but the screen shows the three Bartlet daughters entering the Inaugural Ball, and Greg can't keep his eyes off the middle one.
He sees her in a different light though; not tonight's exotic creature, but the girl who captured his heart without him realising, without even trying.
Not the President's daughter, but his Ellie.
The girl he fell for at Stanford, who kissed him breathless on the crookedest street in the world.
The girl he still dreams about.
She looks good, and he makes a note to tell her so.
