What I Should Have Said Chapter 7
Disclaimer: Same thing as always. You'll should know this by now. Would still take George if I could.
A/N: I'm having way too much fun writing this, so I decided to give you'll another chapter today. What time it posts today is a whole other issue though. I think I have finally figured some things out with ff.net, so I'm kind of excited. Crossing my fingers. Okay I mentioned before that I loved the scene in Pledging Mr. Johnson with Sara and Nick and what she says to him. I was rewatching the scene and I was noticing how Sara states that the shirt he is putting on is "hideous" and then he changes. Hello, if he didn't like her and wasn't trying to impress her, he wouldn't have changed. He he. Also, I was just rereading what I have written so far, I accidently mentioned that I hadn't seen "Crash and Burn" which I haven't, but I actually meant to put "Lady Heather's Box", Oopps!!!! Sorry.

That night at work
Sara and Nick walked into work hand in hand, with huge smiles on their faces. They quickly put their stuff away in their lockers and headed to the break room to wait for Grissom to hand out their assignments for the evening.
Catherine, Grissom and Warrick walked in to Sara and Nick hugging each other. Warrick politely cleared his throat, with that Sara and Nick turned and saw the three watching them. Instead of jumping apart like they expected them too, they lingered and then finally separated but their arms still around the backs of each other.
"No offense or anything guys, but did I miss something?" Warrick asked
"You don't know?" Sara stated
"Know what? I know just by walking into this room that something is obviously going on between you and Nick here. Which by the way, it's about time."
Catherine chuckled at his comment.
"I'm pregnant." Sara stated
Warrick looked at her with complete shock on his face, he took a deep breath before walking over and giving Sara a big bear hug, telling her congratulations while he was doing it. He then went to Nick and pulled him into a hug.
"Congratulations man."
"What? How'd you know?" Nick asked
"It's written all over your face, you two hugging when we walked in. The giddy smile on your face when Sara said she was pregnant. Not stupid man. Paid to be observant."
"Thanks man"
Catherine walked to them and also gave Nick and Sara hugs, offering her congratulations. Grissom finally broke the group up.
"I know we are all excited for Nick and Sara, but we do have work to do"
Grissom handed out assignments, putting Sara, Nick and Warrick together on a 419, dead body, at UNLV.
As they were all getting ready to leave, Sara exclaimed "Oh my god, do you all want to see a picture of the baby."
The group stopped and a chorus of "yeah's" went around.
"Nick, do you have the picture in your pocket?"
"Yeah" Nick reached up to his shirt pocket and pulled out the ultrasound picture. He handed it to Grissom, Warrick and Catherine gathered round to look also.
"Wow, this is really cool guys" Warrick said
Grissom handed the picture back to Nick, who put it back in his pocket.
"Okay, off to work everyone." Grissom stated
The team gathered up their stuff and headed out to their respective crime scenes.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Okay, I'm really tired of working college crime scenes and yelling at students not to touch anything" Sara complained as she, Nick and Warrick walked back into the lab
"I second that" Warrick said
"Me three" Nick stated
Suddenly Sara stopped, handed everything she was carrying to Nick "Oh my god, I'm gonna be sick", with that said she ran towards the ladies room. "I'm guessing the morning sickness happens all the time, huh?" Warrick asked and he and Nick walked into the lab area and left some stuff to be processed by Tim, from day shift who was covering for Greg until he returned from the hospital.
"Actually, this is the first time I've seen her sick"
"Really, wow. She must be having a pretty simple pregnancy."
"I guess. I assume she has."
"What do you mean by that?" Warrick asked
Nick looked at Warrick with a confused look on his face.
"I thought Grissom would have told you." Nick stated
"Told me what?"
Nick looked around and noticed they were still standing in the hallway.
"Not here, how 'bout the break room?"
Warrick nodded and the two headed to the room. They each grabbed some coffee and sat down at the table.
"So, what should have Grissom told me?" Warrick asked
"I didn't know Sara was pregnant until the day of the explosion."
"What? How? When?"
Nick was about to respond to his questions when a voice from behind said "No, let me tell him Nick, I was the one who kept it a secret."
Sara grabbed a water and perched herself on Nick's lap. He wrapped his arms around her body and unconsciously rubbed her abdomen.
Sara took a deep breath before she answered Warrick's questions.
"Nick and I were together back about 10-11 weeks ago, since you know that's how far along I am." All three smiled at the statement. "We were together after I worked on the Eddie case. I felt pretty bad that I couldn't give Catherine the answers she was looking for. Nick found me crying in the locker room. Since I didn't want to be by myself, Nick took me to his place" Sara paused before continuing, "Anyways, I realized I was pregnant a couple weeks later, but I kept quiet. I was ashamed at the way I treated Nick afterwards. It was after the explosion, Nick and Grissom were both apologizing to me in the parking lot, and I just lost it. Blurted my secret out. They pushed to know who the father was and I told them."
Sara took another deep breath and looked at Nick and smiled, he returned.
"Warrick, please don't think any less of me for not telling Nick right away. I truly value your friendship. After the explosion I knew I had to tell him, I just didn't know when or even how, but I knew I had to."
"Sara, I would never think that about you."
"Thanks. I also want you to know that Nick and I talked and everything is okay and were good."
Warrick had a slightly confused look on his face by due to her statement. Before he could ask anything Sara responded "Come on, you and Nick have been friends for like 5 plus years. You two think that we don't know you all care about each other like brothers, but we do."
"Whose we, smarty pants." Nick teased
"Everyone who works here, everyone on our team"
The two men looked at each other a look of understanding passing through their faces, knowing what Sara stated was correct about them.
"Well, I don't know about you two, but I'm getting out of here." Warrick stood and headed towards the door "see you both later tonight." Warrick left the room and headed out.
"So Miss. Siddle?"
Sara laughed and returned "So Mr. Stokes?"
"Ready to get out of here"
"More than ready"
"I'll go grab our stuff, you stay put."
Sara got up from his lap and Nick pulled her into a kiss when he himself stood.
Sara pulled away, "Wow" she patted his arm "go grab our stuff, so we can continue that kiss later"
Nick laughed and practically ran to the locker room. He quickly grabbed their stuff and found Sara waiting for him outside the locker room.
"Decided I didn't want to wait in the break room for you"
Nick smiled, grabbed her hand and they headed out.
"So whose place, mine or yours."
"Yours" Sara said without hesitating
"You got it"
Once outside Nick unlocked the Tahoe and Sara jumped into the passenger seat. They sat in comfortable silence to Nick's apartment. Once at Nick's apartment and inside they began exploring each other's bodies and mouths, but this time they didn't make it to the bedroom.
