Chapter 9
"Oh my gosh Sara, I'm so glad to see you." Greg said as he ran over to give Sara a hug.
"It's good to see you too, Greg." Sara said as she smiled at the younger CSI.
Sara felt uncomfortable as she stood there watching her son be passed around. She felt like Grissom was staring a whole through her. "Nick, maybe we should go and let them get back to work."
"Maybe your right, it's probably about time for Aiden to eat again anyways." Nick responded as he walked over to Brass, who was now holding his son.
Brass gently handed Aiden over to his father. "He is a cutie, Nick."
"Thanks Brass." Nick said as he smiled.
"I'll see you guys later." Nick said as he walked out of the door with Sara following closely behind him.
As they walked down the hallway, Nick asked Sara, "Aren't you going to talk to Grissom about getting your job back?"
"Um…No not today, I might tomorrow." Sara looked back in the direction of the break room to find Grissom still staring at her. She quickly turned her head back around and followed Nicky outside.
When they arrived home, Sara sat down on the couch getting ready to attempt to nurse her son. In the hospital they feed him by bottle, but she was going to try to nurse him before her milk dried up.
Sara secured her son, into her arms as her fiancé lifted her shirt to help get her son ready. After a few seconds of trying, Aiden finally started to suckle.
Nick took a seat beside his future bride, and watched his son eat.
"He is so soft." Nick said as he gently rubbed his son's leg.
Sara just smiled in response. "He is so handsome too, just like his daddy."
Nick returned the smile and gave Sara a peck on the lips.
After a few minutes of eating Aiden was asleep. Sara pulled her shirt back down and started t get up.
"No let me do that." Nick said standing up and taking his son in his arms. He walked over to the bassinet on the other side of the living room and laid his son down.
Sara got up and walked into Nick's bedroom, which was now hers too and began to look for some of her comfortable clothes. She changed and lay down on the bed, letting out a big sigh as she did so.
Nick walked into the bedroom and saw Sara staring impassively out the window.
"What the matter?" Nick asked as he lay on the bed next to her.
"Nothing, just thinking." She responded as she continued to stare out the window.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Getting my job back, I was just thinking is the job really worth having to deal with Grissom after what he did to me?" Sara said as she stared into Nick's eyes.
He just smiled and brushed a stray hair from her face, "I don't know Sara, it's up to you, but I'm behind you one hundred percent, whatever you want to do; I'm fine with you staying home and taking care of Aiden."
"That's what I'm going to do for a few months, but I want to have a job to help support my son."
Before Nick had a chance to respond to Sara's statement they heard their son crying from the living room. Sara quickly got up from the bed and headed in there to tend to him. Nick followed closely behind.
"What's wrong baby?" Sara asks as she picks up her crying son.
"Maybe he needs a diaper change." Nick said as he gently stroked his son's bald head.
Sara walked into their bedroom and laid Aiden down on the bed, as Nick went and got the supplies to change the diaper.
After a few minutes Aiden was changed and dressed for bed. Sara and Nick both lay on their bed with their son lying between them.
Silence filled the room until Nick spoke up, "So when do you want to get married?"
This question took Sara by surprise, "We just got engaged today, and he is already asking me about the date?" Sara thought to herself as she looked at Nick.
"I don't know; I haven't really had time to think about it." She said with express amusement. "Why what did you have in mind?"
"Well I was just thinking, maybe we could go to Texas and get married."
"That doesn't sound to bad Nick." She said with a smile.
He then grabbed her left hand, entwined their fingers and placed a kiss on the back of her hand.
Sara and Nick started to get sleepy, so Nick brought the bassinet form the living room and placed it on Sara's side of the bed. He lifted his son, kissed him on the forehead and said, "Good night little man" before laying him down.
Sara got under the sheets followed by Nick. They snuggled closely together, and it wasn't long at all before they fell asleep in each others.
Sara woke up at 3 a.m. to the sound of her sons cries. Nick quickly got out of bed and came over to his son's bassinet. "Are you hungry little man?" Nick asks as he lifts his son out of his bed. Sara sat up in bed a little and lifted her shirt in attempt to breastfeed her son. Nick helped Sara position Aiden for the feeding and then he got back into the bed.
He began rubbing Sara's back as she was feeding their son. "He is so handsome isn't he?" Nick asks.
"He sure is." Sara said with a grin.

Sara and Nick woke up again at 6 a.m., this is when Sara decided to go ahead and wake up to get her day started. She left nick in bed to sleep as long as he wanted because she knew he had to go back to work.
Nick woke up the sound of the birds outside of the window. When he glanced at the clock it was 11:30 a.m. "My gosh, I need to get up." He said as he pushed the covers off his body.
After Nick took his hot shower and got dressed, he went into the living room looking for his fiancé and his son.
When he entered the living room he found his son to be sitting in his bouncy seat looking around. "Hey buddy, what are you looking at?" Nick said as he squatted down and started rubbing his son's hand. "Where's your mommy?" "Never mind." Nick said when he heard some ruckus in the kitchen.
He got up and walked into the kitchen to find his fiancé had a breakfast laid out on the table for him. "Oh my gosh, Sara this looks wonderful."
"Thanks, baby."
"Eggs, toast, gravy and biscuits, wow you have been busy."
"Are you going to eat?" Nick asked as he sat down at the table.
"Yeah I might eat a little something, but you know I don't eat eggs, I fixed those especially for you." She said with a smile.
Later on that day, Nick dreaded it but he had to leave for work. "Well I guess I better get going." Nick said as he rubbed Sara's arm as she was nursing their son. "Okay."
"I love you." Nick said giving his future bride a kiss.
"I love you too."
"And I love you little man." He said as he got up form the couch and gave his son a kiss on the forehead.

Nick was sitting in the break room talking about his son with Catherine, Warrick and Greg.
Grissom walked in a few moments later and began to hand out assignments, before he left he turned to Nick and said, "Oh Nick, before you go to work I need to speak with you in my office please."
Nick raised his eyebrow and said, "Okay" with a confused tone in his voice.
Nick got up from his chair and followed Grissom into his office. "What's up boss?" Nick asks as he entered.
Grissom closed the door when Nick came in. "Nick I just wanted to tell you, STAY AWAY FROM SARA, she belongs to me, and I know I screwed up in the past but I will get her back."
"Excuse me, Sara belongs to me, you had your chance Griss and you blew it, she is very happy with me and our son," Before Nick could say anything else he was interrupted by Grissom.
"Are you sure that child belongs to you, Sara and I were together a two days before she left for San Francisco."
Nick shook as head as they were talking. Trying to ignore what Grissom was telling him.
"I mean it Nick; it is either stay away from Sara and my child or lose your job."
"One thing is, that child is not yours and neither is Sara and the other thing is, screw this job and screw you!" Nick said angrily as he turned around and walked out of the door.
As Nick jumped into his Denali, slammed the door and turned on the engine a thought popped in his head, "Could Aiden really be Grissom's?"
