I don't own any of the characters that truly appear on the show, the only characters

That I own are the ones that I made up.

Please R&R, it may make me write better.

The woman rang the bell. She knew he's at home, she saw the light, she was so happy when she saw it, she didn't think she'll be that happy.

The door opened slowly.

"Hey" she said and smiled.

"Michelle!?" he was surprised.

"Hey Nick! Surprise!" Sarah ran to him and hugged him, he hugged her back.

"Can we come in?" asked Michelle, she looked nervous.

"Sure", Nick moved and they went in "what are you doing here?"

"I'm tired", said Sarah "I wanna go to sleep".

"Come on Sarah", said Nick "I'll show you where you can sleep, OK?"

"OK" Sarah took his hand and they went away.

Michelle looked at them, she knew Nick will ask her what she was doing in his house and she'll have to lie cause the truth was something he shouldn't know about, no body should. She knew that they must leave how sooner how better, she didn't want to be caught nor she wanted something to happen to Nick because he's helping her and she is a criminal. She won't let it happen, she'll run, tomorrow morning she'll take Sarah and they'll leave, maybe they'll go back to Texas, to her parents, sisters and brothers.

Nick went into the room, he looked at Michelle "she fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow".

"Good" Michelle smiled, trying to avoid his eyes.

"Why are you here Michelle?" he went closer to her.

"I wanted to…to go to a dancing school, so we came here and…"

"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked.

"I don't know, I guess I forgot", she sounded confused.

"Do you have a place to stay, things?"

"Well…" she didn't know what to say so she just smiled "well you know…I'm so tired, I'll go to sleep".

"Michelle…" he said.

"Thanks uncle Nick", she kissed him on his cheek and went.

"I guess I get the couch", Nick smiled.

*********

When Michelle woke up she heard Nick and Sarah's voice, they were making breakfast.

She went of the bed and went to them, it was the escape day.

"What are you making?" she asked.

"Eggs mommy", said Sarah "do you want one?"

"Sure, thanks", said Michelle, Sarah seemed happy.

"Nick would you make an egg for mom?" Sarah smiled, her brown hair laid on her shoulders.

"You can take mine, I'll make myself a new one", Nick said to Michelle.

"OK", said Michelle, she looked sad "thanks", she took the plate with the egg on it and sat on the couch, Nick and Sarah looked at her.

"What happened to mom?" Sarah asked.

"I don't know, I hoped you could tell me that".

"After she picked me from school we just started walking, somewhere, until I told her that there is someone we can go to".

"She didn't say anything?"

"No", Sarah said "maybe you should talk to her".

"Yeah", he said and went to Michelle.

"Hey", she said.

"So what's going on?" he asked, he looked worried.

"Nothing", she said.

"Yeah, Sarah told me that you…"

"Just leave me alone Nick, please"

"Michelle are you in trouble?" he asked knowing that she is in trouble, and big one. She didn't look so bad when she told him she was pregnant six years ago.

"I'm not…" Michelle looked at him, she knew she shouldn't lie, not a big lie anyway "I'm in little trouble" she smiled.

"How little?" he didn't believe her.

"Like a finger, smaller"

Nick smiled "really? Whose finger?"

"What kind of question is that Nick?"

"Michelle don't lie to me"

"I'm not", she looked at him, he didn't believe her " I swear! I just had no money to pay to Sarah's school and…"

"Your mom has lots of money" Nick said.

"I didn't want her money" Michelle tried not to scream the words.

Nick didn't know what to say, she was lying, he knew that "don't do this, don't lie, I'll help you, you know I will".

"What if you can't? And you can't" Michelle started to cry.

"Michelle…" Nick started talking.

"Mom?" asked Sarah, she looked at Nick.

"I'm sorry", she said "we must go Nick, thanks, bye" Michelle got up "come on Sarah".

"I don't want you to go", Nick said "just tell me what happened".

"I can't Nick, I just can't".
