"Nick, as much as I enjoy this, you might want to try ambushing me in a
more comfortable location." Nick and I were sprawled on the floor of the
laundry room.
I had been doing laundry while Austin napped when Nick came home. Austin
seemed to go through clothes faster than I could go through swabs at a
crime scene. Anyway, Nick had snuck up behind me and before we had a
chance to move to another room, we were in the middle of the floor tangled
together with most of our clothes off.
Nick chuckled and trailed his fingers down my arm. "Anywhere with you is comfortable for me."
I grinned. If he wasn't so damn cute, I think I could kill him at times. "So, do you think we've made a baby yet?" I waggled my eyebrows at him.
He leaned down and kissed me, mumbling against my lips. "Well, if you don't think that one took, we can try again."
I giggled. I heard that having a baby can kill the sex drive for some women. Not me. If anything, I want Nick more now than ever. This works out well for us because Nick can't seem to get enough either. Ever since we decided to try for another baby, we can't keep our hands off of each other. I almost killed him when I found out he told Catherine and Warrick. It's not that I don't trust them, it's just that I haven't really decided whether or not I'm going back to work at all and I don't want Grissom to get wind of it until I do decide.
As Nick breaks the kiss, I reach up and trail my fingers across his lips. I love his lips. "We can try again, but let's move it to the bedroom."
Nick leans down and kisses me again before reluctantly pulling himself off of me and standing up. He reaches down and offers me his hand to help me up. I gratefully accept. As I stand, Nick snakes his arms around my waist and starts kissing my neck. We almost get carried away again right there, but someone knocks at the door.
We look at each other with eyebrows raised and then realize if we were going to answer the door we might want to put the rest of our clothes on. I don't think that my bra and Nick's T-shirt and socks are going to cut it. We hastily throw our clothes on grinning at each other in the process. Nick makes his way to the door and opens it wondering who in the hell was stopping by without calling first.
Warrick stood there with an amused grin on his face. It was then that Nick glanced back at me with a sheepish grin on his face. "I forgot that Warrick was coming by, Sar."
I chuckled. Nick was so easily distracted.
Warrick chuckled. "Did I interrupt something?"
Nick chuckled. "Of course you did, Warrick. I'm trying to get Sara pregnant remember?"
Warrick rolled his eyes and laughed. "Of course you are."
"Every chance he gets." I quipped. It was the truth, but whether Warrick took me seriously or not, I wasn't sure.
Warrick walked over and gave me a hug. "So how are Mrs. Stokes and junior doing these days?"
I grin at him. "We're doing great, War. Austin's sleeping."
"Well, I want to be first in line to hold him when he wakes up." Warrick loved Austin.
Nick chuckled. "Ok, you heard him, honey. Warrick gets to change Austin's diaper." Nick was grinning.
Warrick just laughed. "You know, I have changed a diaper or two. I'm not afraid of a little poop. I've seen worse at crime scenes."
I just smiled. I missed hanging out with Warrick.
Warrick looked at me with a serious expression. "Have you decided if you're coming back yet or not? You know you're supposed to back on the schedule next week."
I glance at Nick. I think I've known all along what I'm going to do. I've just been putting it off. "I think I'm pretty close to making a decision. I need to go in and talk to Grissom in any case."
Warrick raises an eyebrow at Nick and I. "Have you told Grissom that you guys are trying to get pregnant?"
Nick shook his head. "That information is on a need to know basis, and at the moment no one who doesn't already know needs to know. Our families don't even know."
I grinned.
"Hey, I really didn't come by to interrogate you two. I've got something to tell you." Warrick smiled. He looked really happy about something.
"What's up man?" Nick queried him.
"I've got an agent coming to see me play on Saturday. If he likes what he hears, I might be looking at a recording contract." Warrick was smiling widely.
"Way to go, man!" Nick exchanged a high five with Warrick.
I grinned at him. "Hey, that's great. Can we come watch?"
Warrick grinned and nodded. "You better bring Austin though."
I chuckled. "No problem. I'm not about to leave him with a babysitter anytime soon."
Warrick glanced at me and then back over at Nick. "If they sign me, I might be moving to LA."
Nick and I exchanged a surprised glance. Nick looked at Warrick with disbelief. "Man, that's great, but can't you work from here?"
Warrick chuckled. "LA is where the action is. What are you giving me such a hard time for? I know how much you two would love move to Malibu."
I chuckled. "Yeah, we would love to move to Malibu, but it's not like we can commute very easily. Not to mention the price tag of those homes."
"We'll just miss you, man. You'll miss watching Austin grow." Nick interjected.
As if on cue, I heard Austin cry. I moved to go get him, but Warrick stood up and raised his hand. "I'm first in line, besides Austin is calling his Uncle Warrick."
Nick and I just grinned at each other. Life sure does change quickly.
Nick chuckled and trailed his fingers down my arm. "Anywhere with you is comfortable for me."
I grinned. If he wasn't so damn cute, I think I could kill him at times. "So, do you think we've made a baby yet?" I waggled my eyebrows at him.
