Casey had seen Chris around the lab helping out the undergraduates during scheduled experiments; they had spoken on one or two occasions, although only about the experiments.
Casey had noticed Chris on the first day in the lab, he was just over 6 foot tall with a rugged look about him, and he looked like he had a fairly toned body under the lab coat he was always wearing. He had short brown hair that had a messy look to it with deep chocolate brown eyes and he was always on hand to help any student that was struggling in class.
Today Casey was working in the lab on her own trying to decipher the various features of the bones when Chris walked in carrying a large pile of books and folders. He looked surprised to see Casey. Casey looked up from her pile of bones; she smiled and asked if he needed any help. He replied that he didn't and apologized if he startled her explaining he didn't realise that there was anybody in the lab.
"No worries" replied Casey "I didn't think anyone else would be working at this time of day".
"Neither did I, I'll go work in the other lab" said Chris.
"Oh no, no it's fine there's enough room for us both in here, um, if you want to stay." Replied Casey.
"Thanks "said Chris putting his books at the other end of the work bench.
Chris and Casey worked in silence for an hour when Chris heard Casey lightly cursing under her breath. He asked if she was ok.
"Yeah, I just can't seem to work out which rib goes where in this skeleton"
"I can help if you like, I took my undergrad in human otology"
Chris slid a stool up to the part of the bench that Casey was working on, and took a seat opposite her, she had the bones of a skeleton all laid out in the correct places except the ribs.
"if you work on the assumption that the ribs get bigger as they go down the body and then get smaller again, then you can sort them according to size" Chris remarked as he lifted each rib to show her.
Casey leaned across the bench slightly to see Chris demonstrating the features of each rib. Chris noticed that the top few buttons on Casey's lab coat were undone. Her perfectly sized breasts were straining the fabric and he could clearly see the porcelain white skin below her tan line. Her fiery red hair curled around her neck enhancing the cleavage that was on show for him to see. He had noticed her before of course, in the lab, well who could miss those fiery red curls and that amazingly rounded ass. Chris realised he had stopped talking and Casey had noticed him watching her breasts, a tiny smile ran across her lips, as she watched him blush.
"Would you mind coming round this side to show me, I can't see clearly from there" Casey almost whispered.
