"Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad."

Amanda and Nick where dating for quite awhile, so they knew each other's ups and downs. Nick knew something was up the moment Amanda declined Chinese. It was the second time in 2 weeks she didn't want Chinese.

"Amanda, are you sure you don't chinese instead of pizza?" Asked Nick.

Amanda said she had Chinese already, but they both knew that was a lie. Nick decided not push her on the Chinese as it was just a small thing. Why was she all of sudden changing?

Truth be told, Amanda didn't want Nick knowing that the smell of chinese made her nauseous. Even a small hint of it and she wanted to empty out her stomach. She was very aware of why she might be like this. When was the last time she had that reminder of not growing a human inside of her? Amanda went into the bedroom and fell asleep next to Nick.

Around midnight Amanda got a call, but asked Nick to answer and he did.

"Sleepy head we got a case on the east side." Said Fin.

Nick, heard Fin speak and tossed the phone to Amanda. None of her co-workers knew about them and he wanted it to stay like that till it was time.

"Alright Fin, text the address I'll be there." Said Amanda.

Amanda swore hoping Fin didn't noticed Nick had answered first. She got of bed and went to take a quick shower. She came out dressed in her clothes and gave Nick a quick kiss before leaving.

"Who answered your phone earlier?" asked Fin.

"Someone you don't need to know about." Amanda replied to keep Nick anonymous.

"Well, whoever you're trying to protect sounded like Nick." said Fin

"Someone is nosy today. It wasn't Nick haven't talked to him in awhile." Amanda retorted back.

All day they worked trying to find the rapist who raped their victim. At 7:30 Liv told them to go home and if new evidence was found she'll call 'em. Amanda grab her stuff, said her goodbyes and went off to Nick's place not knowing Fin was on his way there.

"Hey," said Amanda giving Nick a kiss.

"Fin, at work today asked if you answered. I told him it wasn't, I don't think I want them to know about us yet. Never answer my phone again." Amanda told Nick who chuckled lightly.

There was a knock at the door. Nick wasn't expecting anyone and neither order take-out as both entered five minutes apart from each other. Amanda was closer to the door, so she answered not knowing who was on the other side.

Amanda opened the door and was surprised to see who it was. What the hell was he doing here. He never came over to his house as Nick told Amanda.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Asked Amanda.

"I should be asking you the same thing partner." Fin replied back.

By then Nick came out to see Fin too. He had no idea why Fin was here. Why was he here? In all the years they've worked together Fin never been to Nick's house it was shock

The only words that could slip from Nick's mouth was damn.
