Author's Note: I know this story is sort of fluff right now but it will get more interesting very soon just bear with me. Thanks.
Sara burst into tears after she heard Warrick the doorway. "Warrick, Cath, please don't tell anyone right now." She begged. Catherine got up from her seat and walked over to Sara; without saying anything she grabbed her into a hug. "It's ok Sara." She said in attempt to soothe her. Nick then walked into the room and saw the two women in embraced in a hug and tears rolling down Sara's cheeks. "What's wrong with Sara, Warrick?" he asked as concerned. "Oh…it's nothing…um…she's just having an issue." Warrick lied. Even though he and Nick were close friends, he couldn't spill the beans to him, not after Sara begged him not to.
After shift Sara went home and stretched her feet out on the couch as a million more thoughts came running through her head. "Ok, Cath and Warrick now know but the person who really needs to know I don't have the nerve to tell. What's he going to think? Is he going to even want it? After all it was a mistake; we weren't or ever have been in a relationship.
Just as these thoughts raced through her head they were cut short by the ring of her cell phone. "Hello" she answered. "Hey Sar" came the voice of the handsome Texan Nick on the other end. "Oh hi" Sara replied as her heart raced. "Sara, are you okay? I've been worried about you. You started to tell me what was up earlier, but we were interrupted." "Uh yeah I'm fine Nick, I'll be ok" She lied again. She had lost the nerve to tell him yet again. "Alight Sar, well if you need me you know how to reach me." He said not really sounding convinced that she would be alright. "Thanks Nick."
Once again the night began to fall over the city of Las Vegas and time for the CSI's of graveyard to go to work. As Sara approached the lab the more nervous she became. She knew she needed to just get it out but every time she had the opportunity to tell him, she either chickened out or got interrupted. But she couldn't keep this secret from him much longer, for one he needed to know that he had a child on the way and besides her belly would start growing before too long. When she turned into the parking lot of the lab she pulled in beside Nick, who was still sitting in his car listening to music and looking through his cell phone. His head slowly bobbed to the music and he was lip singing she noticed. A smile came across her face. Nick looked over and noticed Sara had pulled in beside him, so he waved and motioned for her to come over. She got out and approached Nick's vehicle. "Hey are you feeling better? Are you still having an issue?" Nick asked. "Issued?" "Yeah, Warrick said you had an issue, and that's why you were crying yesterday." "Well let's just say it's not to go away Nick." She told him. Nick just looked at her in confusion. Their buddy Greg then pulled up on the passenger side of Nick's car, his music blaring louder than Nick's had been. "We will talk later..." Sara said as she tapped Nick's car door with her hand before turning and heading towards the entrance of the lab.
That same night Catherine and Sara were stuck on a case together, and were in the evidence room processing what they had collected. "Alright Sara, let's talk." "About what?" Sara asked not taking her eyes off the evidence to look at her. "Sara, you know what I'm talking about." "Catherine, I don't won't to do this right now, I just can't." Sara said as she could feel her eyes began to fill with tears yet again. "Why do you not want to?" "Catherine, because the father doesn't even know yet, and he works here in the office with us." "Oh my gosh, is this Grissom's baby?" Catherine asked. Sara shook her head no. "Whose baby is it then Sara?" "It's Nick's Catherine, Nick is the father." Sara blurted out.
"What?" came a voice from the door way.
"Sara, we need to talk now!" Nick said sternly as he turned away from the evidence room and headed towards the locker room. Sara's heart dropped she had no choice but to tell him now, which really he knew it especially if he had heard the conversation between her and Catherine.
When she got to the locker room, nick was sitting on the bench bouncing his leg in an angry manner. He stood up when Sara approached him. "Nick…I" nick held his hand up. "Save it Sara, I heard the conversation, and how long where you going to keep this from me?" "Nick I haven't known that long and I tried to tell you but were interrupted." "What about when I called you on the phone? You had your chance right there." He said with anger in his voice. "Nick why are you so mad?" "Well for one, how did this happen, you told me you were on the pill the night we were together; and secondly you lied to me when you had the opportunity to tell me." "Nick, I got scared to tell you, think if you were in my shoes, how do you think you would feel? And yes I was on the pill but I didn't know the pill's affects would decrease when you were on antibiotics." She responded. "Sara, how are we supposed to raise this baby?" Nick asked. The two of them were lost in conversation they did not see Ecklie approach the room and see the two of the arguing. But he bluntly interrupted, "Stokes and Sidle in my office now!"
-TBC-Told you this chapter was a little fluff, I guess you would call it, but trust me it will get interesting. REVIEW!
