----------SATURDAY--------------

Sara yawned and got up. She put on her snoopy slippers and went down stairs.
Gil was already awake and getting Breakfast in the kitchen
Sara sniffed the air, "Hey, whats cooking?"
Gil turned to face her. "Pancakes.,..."
"YES!" She grinned, "Get a good sleep?"
A smile crept across Gil's face. "Yes... I did... you?"
Sara grinned, "Yup! I had the BEST dream. Nick was in it!"
Sara grabbed some plates and forks. She went to get some maple syrup.
Gil took the pan off the stove and set on a cold burner. He took one out for each of them.
Catherine came into the kitchen, "Hiya babe, morning Sara, sleep well? What time did Nick leave?"
"Hey sleepy-head," Gil said to Cath.
"Umm," Sara went red, "About 1 maybe 1:30...."
Gil looked at her, "So.. what were you doing all that time?"
Catherine looked at Sara in shock, "You go girl." she mumbled making sure Gil didn't hear her.
"We watched a movie and just talked. You know getting to know each other. Relaxe, we aren't like you! We didn't jump into bed the moment the adults left us alone!" Sara said to Gil. "No offence Catherine!"
Catherine chuckled, "None taken."
Gil mouth was agape. He shook his head and finished getting breakfast set up.
"So, what you doing today then sara?" Catherine asked.
"Well, Jan's coming round and I'm seeing Nick!" She grinned.
"What you guys doing?"
Gil shrugged. "Dunno..."
"Maybe go for a walk or something..."
Sara nodded, "Well, Nick said he'd call me once he was up."
Catherine grinned, "You bring him up in every conversation! Ohh! I have to go to the mall."
Sara grinned, "I know!" Sara set the table.
Gil rolled his eyes. "Okay... you have got to be the biggest shopper around.." He smiled at her

Sara smiled at the two.

"I know!" Catherine giggled, "While there I need to get some stuff for my dad!"
Sara checked the clock, "It's 10:30 already?"
"How long will breakfast take?"
Gil sat down at the table and started eating. "If you keep talking, forever maybe..." He chuckled a little
Sara sat down and wolfed down the pancake
Catherine looked at Sara, "Hungry?"
Sara shook her head, "No, I wanna get a shower before Nick calls."
Gil looked at Catherine and sighed. then he looked over at Sara. "And if Nick calls while you're in the shower? Should we bring the phone up to you?" He smiled at her.
Sara shoved her plate in the sink and went to go up stairs, "Please! Thanks!"
Catherine shook her head, "I remember those days!"
Gil chuckled. "Really..."
Catherine grinned, "Yup... But you would usually call round half an hour after you were meant to call using the phone. And you'd use a crap excuse!" She smiled.
Gil smiled... "But at least I called..."
Catherine laughed, "True! Many guys say they will and then don't!"
Catherine got up and washed hers and Sara's plates, "Give me your plate if your done..."

Just then on cue the phone came alive ringing.
"You'd better get it..." Catherine smirked while drying the dishes.
Gil got up and walked over to the phone and picked it up. "Hello?"
"Uh... is Sara there?" Nick asked.
"Yea... just a minute.." Gil put his hand over the receiver. He took the cordless and walked to the bathroom and knocking on the door. "Sara.. Nick's on the phone"
Sara switched off the shower, "Hold on!" She grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her, she came out, "Thanks. Hello?"
Sara ran into her room and closed the door.

"Uh... hey Sara." Nick chirped.
"Hi Nick! How are you? Did you get ino trouble for being so late?" Sara asked, she was worried about that last night.
"I'm fine and ... no... I didn't get in trouble ... So what are you doing today?"
"I think Jan is coming over for a bit..."
"I'm helping her decided what to wear tonight... her date with Warrick."
Sara opened her wardrobe, trying to decide what to wear herself, "What were you thinking of doing?" She asked smiling.
"Oh.. yes.. that..." Nick nodded. He craddeled the phone between his neck and shoulder and he finished getting dressed. "I just wanted to know if you wanted to go out tonight... hey.. maybe we could have a double date!"
Sara frowned, "I think we should let the two have time to get to know each other... but I'd gladly go out tonight with you!" Sara grinned, "You can come round today if you want, my parents aren't back yet so you won't be chased from the house..." Sara said laughing to herself.
Nick chuckled then paused. "Wait.. would they really chase me from the house?" He asked dumbly.
Sara laughed, "No... well, my mom wouldn't... Nah, that was only one time..." Sara said laughing.
"They don't like me having a boyfriend because they're afraid I'll get like Catherine and Gil, really close really quickly... Which it wasn't THAT quickly concedering they went out a year and a bit before Catherine stayed over!"
"Ok..." Nick shook his head. " Anyways... I'll probably drop by sometime this afternoon... and what time did you want to go out?"
"Sorry i babble.... I'm not fussed! Whenever you want..." She grinned.
Nick sighed heavily into the phone. "Sara...."
"What? I'm not good at decisions... Surprise me!"
Nick smiled. "OK... but you better be ready... "
Sara smiled, "Ok, I will! I'm getting ready as we speak!"
Sara realised what she said and went red..." Umm, that is..."
"Don't worry about it... I just finished getting dressed too."
Sara laughed, "Why didn't you wait until after you you dressed to call me?"
"I couldn't wait..." Nick blushed on the other end.
Sara felt butterflies in her stomach again, "Really?" She grinned.
"Yea.." He whispered.
"I couldn't wait until you called..."
"cool.." Nick smiled. "Well I'll let you go now... and I'll see-you sometime this afternoon maybe and I'll see you tonight."
Sara pouted, "Maybe?"
"Haha.. okay... I WILL see you this afternoon"
Sara grinned, "Ok! I'll c ya then.."
"C-ya later!" Nick said and hung-up
Sara smiled, and threw the phone on her bed. She started to get ready, and ended up puting on some jogging pant and a vest top and ran down stairs.

She walked into the living room, "Hi guys!"
Catherine smiled, "So what did Nick say?"
Gil looked up at Sara,
Sara grinned, "He's gonna come round this afternoon for abit and we're going out tonight I think!"
Catherine looked at her, "Ohh! Well we'll leave you two alone!"
"Won't we Gil?"
Gil frowned but nodded anyway "Sure"
Sara smiled, "Well, Jan might be here too."
Catherine stretched, "I'm going to get changed..."
Sara sat on the couch.
Gil smiled, "Alright... besides I'm going to the mall with Cath...so that'll take forever.."
Catherine looked at Sara, "You ARE going to change aren't you?"
Gil followed Cath upstairs to change too.
"Yes Catherine!" Sara rolled her eyes and flicked between the channels on the tv.

Catherine turned to Gil once upstairs, "You still don't trust him?"
"Not completely... I think i just need to get to know him better... he seems pretty nice though"
Catherine nodded, "Come on, go get dressed, I'm gonna get a shower."

----------------------------------

Jan walked up to Sara's front door and knocked.
Sara switched off the TV and answered the door, "Ohh, Hi!" Sara smiled.
"Hey.. uh... are you going to wear that all day?" Jan asked pointing to Sara's outfit. She walked inside
"YES! OF COURSE! I'm seeing Nick and I'm gonna wear a vest top which in too small and a pair of short shorts!" Sara grinned, "You coming up the stairs?"
"Yea..." Jan grinned and followed Sara.
Sara smiled knowing Jan knew nothing of last night and that she wanted to know.

"So you get home ok last night?"
"Yea... Warrick walked me home..." Jan smiled.
"Ohhh! Anything HAPPEN!?" Sara grinned and put on some music.
"No."
"Really?"
Sara looked at her, "Why?"
"Did he say something?"
"No... he just walked me home..."
"I thought you'd kiss him before I kissed Nick..."
"You kissed Nick?!"
Sara blushed, "Once or twice...." She sat on the her bed, and grinned.
"Really?" Jan grinned
Sara smiled, "Yup, He stayed here until half one!"
"Well then... what else did you do?" Jan winked.
"Why does everyone think we done something else. We watched TV and talked."
"If you say so..." Jan joked.
"JAN!" Sara screamed, "ANYWAY! What you gonna wear tonight?"
"I dunno... something sexy...."
"Well, you brought any of your things? Go try them on I'll tell you which ones!
Or you can look in my closet..."
"k..." Jan picked up her bag and headed to the washroom.
She came back and was wearing a short black skirt and a powder blue t-shirt with a low v-neck
Sara wolf-whistled, "haha! spin round!"
Jan twirled around and smiled at her. "What do you think?"
"Nice! Very nice..."
Sara put her thumbs up, "I'm sure Mr. Brown will like it even more!"

Catherine came in the room, "Sara we're off... HEY JAN! You look great! Wear that tonight!"
Jan smiled at her. "Thanks"
Sara waved to Catherine, "Bye.. Yeah wear that!"
"C-ya Cath"
"Alright I will..." Jan beamed. "Now.. what to do with my hair..."
Sara pulled up Jans hair in a twist and clasped it to her head, "Like this?"
"Nice..."
Sara smiled, "What should I wear?"
Sara hugged the puppy Nick bought her and looked in her closet.
"hmm... go pick something.... sweet and sexy..."
"Sexy? That's not me...." Sara saw a red dress Catherine made her buy, short in length and lower cut.
"That's nice..." Jan nodded
"I don't know... I mean I don't want to give out the wrong impression."
"Well then wear something like last night.. just a bit more appealing... more revealing..."Jan smiled
Sara looked and held up a pair of black jeans and a blue top which wasn't as low as Jan's but low and the back was see through, "This?"
"yea.. that..." Jan nodded
Sara looked at the clock and frowned. "So you think you and Warrick have... potential?"
"yea... I think so.. " Jan smiled.
Sara smiled and looked at her watch, "hmm, anyway, hat about Ecklie? you tell Warrick?"
Jan nodded.
"Ohh, what did he say?"
"Well... he said Ecklie went over the line..." Jan shrugged. "I'm guessing he'd probably beat him up if Ecklie was there..."
Sara smiled, "Well, at least you told him..." Sara glanced at the clock.
She played with the frills in the shorts. and kissed the dogs nose, "I need a name for the puppy!"
"Hmm.... "Jan thought
Sra laughed, "StRokes."
"Awww...."
"Because u Stroke him and its like Stokes!"
Jan laughed. "Thats cute..."
"Cute and cuddly!"
Sara grinned, "This morning he called me and I was getting dressed and said well I should go to get dressed or something like that and he said I change while on the phone to you. So I was like why didn't you wait until u were dressed? And he said 'I couldn't wait'
Can you believe he was SO cute!" Sara grinned and hugged the teddy.
Jan laughed. "You know you two looked so cute together last night"
"I NEVER thought Nick Stokes would like me! You and warrick looked cute! Like a close couple." Sara still held the stuffed toy.
She glanced at the clock and looked out the window.
"What's up?"
"Huh? nothing, Just Nick said he'd come round this afternoon..." Sara said and sighed, "I guess something came up!"
Sara's phone lite up the high pitched ring filled the room. She picked up the phone in a low tone, "hello?"
"Hey Sara..." Nick said.
"Nick!" Sara suddenly brightened up.
"Hey.. look.. Sorry that I didn't come over yet, but I had to help Dad with something so I didn't have time... but I will see-you tonight right?" Nick asked.
Jan smiled at Sara.
Sara pouted "Ok, when, what time?" She had a massive grin after she was done pouting.
"Hmm.. i thought you told me to surprise you.??" Nick chuckled over the phone
Sara laughed, "Ok then, you do that!"

A knock on the wooden door echoed down the hall and up to Sara's room.

"Alright I will..." Nick smiled.
Sara walked down, "Hold on, someones at the door..."
"Ok.."
Sara left the phone on the bed, "I'll get the door, talk to Nick if you want," She said to Jan.

Sara ran down the stairs, "Coming!" She unbolted the door.
Nick grinned as Sara opened the door "SURPRISE!!"
Sara grinned and jumped on Nick.
Jan heard the surprise over the phone and went downstairs. "Hey Nick!"
After Nick pulled slightly away from Sara, he looked over at Jan. "Hey... Nice outfit, you wearing that tonite?"
Jan nodded.
"Warrick's gonna love it"
Sara suddenly let go of Nick and blushed at her small Vest top and shorts.
"Ummmmmm...."
Nick turned off his cell phone and looked at Sara... "You look.... great!"
Sara laughed, "Yes with my holey Vest top and short shorts! I'm sure you think that."
"Hey... short shorts are nice..."
Sara smacked Nick playfully.
"Besides, you look nice with anything"
Nick smiled at her.
Sara smiled and kissed him, "I'm gonna go change into something... else!"
Nick kissed her back then cleared his thoat and looked over at Jan. He whispered to Sara. "We still have an audience."
Sara grinned, "Well you and our audience can wait for me in my room!" She grabbed the top and jeans lying on the sofa and went to the bathroom.

Sara walked back into her room and heard Nick and Jan talking...............

"So... you and Sara look really cute together" Jan commented.
"Really? You think so? I mean I know she's great looking, but I've always seen myself as kinda awkward." Nick laughed
"No.. not at all... you and Warrick are two of the hottest guys I know."
"Haha... thanks" Nick smiled
Sara burst in wearing a white tshirt and jeans, "I agree!"
"haha... nice of you to join us"
Sara smiled and sat on the bed hugging Strokes the puppy.
"So whens Warrick picking you up?"
"Around 7"
"Excitied?"
"Yea... I can't wait..." Jan smiled
Sara grinned, "Where we going?" she asked Nick.
"I'm not sure yet... where would you like to go?"
"Anywhere with you... Plus, you know me and decisions!"
Sara looked at Jan and smiled, "You like Jan's hair? I done it!"
"Yea.. it's really nice"
"thanks"
Sara yawned, "I named the puppy!"
"Really? what's his name then?"
Sara grinned, "Strokes..."
Nick grinned. "I see... Stokes... Strokes..."
"No! You stroke him!" Sara said, lying.
"Riiighht"
Sara smiled, "yeah! whats the time?"
Nick checked his watch. "3:45pm"
Sara nodded and heard the door, "Gil?" she shouted.

"NO HUNNY! It's us!" Sara's mom shouted.

Sara looked at Jan in terror.
"Umm MOM? What you guys doing home?" Sara went out to see her.
Jan smiled at her.
Nick looked over at jan, confused
Sara's mom came up to Sara's room, "We deicded to come home early. Do you have a problem with that?"
Sara stood at her dorrway, "No mom, why would I? Where's dad?"
"Bring the stuff in... Sara why u blocking your door? Move!" Sara's mom got passed, "Jan, Hello dear, and a boy..... who is this?" She looked at Sara and back at the boy sitting on her daughters bed.
Sara looked at Nick, "Mom, Nick stokes, Nick my mom, Isabell."
"Nice to meet you! Nick Stokes? Ahh! You are Catherine's friend?" Sara's mom turned to Jan looking very done up, "OHH! You two are going out!?" She said talking about Jan and Nick.

Nick looked at Sara's mom. "Hey, nice to meet you"

Jan looked at her. "No, Nick and I aren't going out..."

Isabell looked at Nick, "Ohh! So your friends with the girls?"
Sara choked, "No mom, he's not gay either!" Sara almost shouted knowing what her mom was implying.
She looked at Sara, "Is he YOUR boyfriend?"
Sara froze, "Umm, well... Kinda, yes, I guess so, We haven't gone on a date or nothing but..."
Isabell looked at Nick, "Sara you know how your father feels about 'boyfriends,' particularly if the are in your room."
Sara started to go red, "Well, I mean... its not like we're alone! And I'm not like Gil! I won't jump into bed with Nick the moment your backs turned!"
Nick frowned and looked down. He then stood up and looked to Sara. "Well I should go... I'll see-ya tonight" He kissed her on the cheek
Sara looked at him, "No, please stay."
"Nick please don't leave on my account. Its just a shock that Sara has a boyfriend." Isabell explained seeing her daughters face.
Nick smiled a little. He was a little embarassed.
Isabell turned round, "Nice to meet you Nick, and Sara... Watch out for your father, He said he'll be up as soon as he's done unpacking."
Sara smiled, "K mom, Nick you gonna stay, please?" Sara pouted and looked at him with puppy eyes.
Nick smiled at her. "Okay.. for you..."
Sara hugged Nick, "thanks," Pulled away and heard her dad coming up the stairs and looked at Jan.

"Sara?" her dad poped his head in the room, "Hi hu.... who are you?"
Nick looked at the man and nodded to him "Hi, I'm Nick Stokes.."
"I'm Arthur Grissom, pleased to meet you, You are here in my daughters room because...."
"Uh.. I was just visting.."
Jan looked at him. "I'm here to Mr. Grissom!"
Sara rolled her eyes, "Deja vu! Mom asked the same question! He's MY boyfriend dad!"
Arthur smiled to Jan, "OHH! JAN! HELLO! Your WHAT? Why can't you be like Jan and not be into boys Sara?"
Sara almost choked, "Jan?"
Jan smiled and laughed looking at Sara. Sara looked and tried not to smile.
"Umm Dad, the polite thing to do is leave us now...."
"I will once I know know whats going on.."
"Nothing sir... we're just hanging out... Sara was helping me pick out clothes" Jan said.
Sara huffed, "Dad I'm dating Nick, we aren't going to do anything like Gil and Catherine the mintue you go away AND Now u leave!!"
"SARA GRISSOM! Done stairs please!"
"I have Sidle in my name dad!" Sara walked out the room, "Be right back Nick."
"Jan, if you want to you can look through my shoes for your DATE tonight."

Arthur closed the door behind them and took Sara down stairs.

Sara came up a few mintues later, she checked the mirror, wiped her face and walked into her room, "Sorry about that..."
Nick walked over to her. "You ok?"
Sara hugged Nick, "I will be, I just hate my dad, he's too protective of me."
"Hey Dad's are supposed to be that way" Nick smiled at her.
Sara smiled and looked at Jan, "I think he's more upset your going on a date! He can't use you as an example anymore!"
Jan grinned. "Oh well... but now I'm an example for your dates... but that could be a bad thing..." She chuckled.
Sara laughed and cuddle into Nick, "You find shoes?"
"Yep." Jan held up a pair of Sara's silver sandals "so i can borrow these?"
Sara nodded, "Of course! Nick, whats your favourite color?"
"Blue or Green..."
Sara got up and looked in her closet, "Ok then!" She sat back down, " What time you coming round tonight?"
"Hmm.. i dunno.. what time did you want to go out? 8?"
"I'm not bothered, as long as I get you all to myself!" Sara hugged him.
Nick hugged her back and kissed her quickly, forgetting Jan was in the room.
Sara giggled, "When's Warrick picking you up Jan?"
"Uhh... 7" Jan said, finnally being remembered
"Ahh! Where you going?"
"not sure yet..."
"Where we going?" She asked nick kissing him on the cheek.
"hmm.. cafe?"
Nick smiled at her.
"hmmmmm OK!" Sara grabbed Strokes and fluffed his fur. "Its 5:30!" SAra said looking the clock.
"well I'm gonna go home and get ready and I'll pick you up at 8... so that gives you 2 1/2 hours to get ready and have something to eat..." Nick smiled and kissed her lightly
"mmmmm, ok, See ya then." She walked Nick down stairs and checked her dad was no where in sight and kissed him.
"See-ya tonight!"Nick waved and left.
Sara closed the door and sighed happily. She went up stairs to see Jan. "I'm in love!" She said and threw herself on the bed.
Jan smiled... "haha.... aww"
Sara grinned and closed her eyes, "Isn't he great!?"
"Yea... hot and nice.."
Sara jumped up, "Jan I'm not throwing you out but.... you only have an hour and a half to get ready for Warrick...."
Jan scrambled up. "Omigosh.. well I'm gonna go.. and I'll talk to you later... after both our dates..." Jan smiled
Sara grinned, "Bye! Hi Gil!" She said as Jan went out and Gil came in, "Mom and dad are back!"
Sara ran upstairs to get ready.
Gil looked at her. "ok... why so soon?"
Sara shrugged
"you going out somewhere tonite?" Gil asked
Sara grinned and nodded.
Then he remembered Sara telling him.. "oh.. yea.. with Nick"
"Gil that you?" Shouted up his mom.
"Yea..."
"Come here my dear, a word please!" Shouted the womans voice.
*She's found the kitchen in a mess, opps* Gil thought walking to the kitchen.
