"Warrick, what brings you by?" Nick queried, trying to act more natural
than he was feeling at the moment.
Warrick raised an eyebrow. "You left your cell phone in the locker room."
"It could have waited until next shift." Nick replied.
"You have company?" Warrick queried suspiciously.
"Yeah, Sara stopped by." Nick was certain that Warrick already knew this since Sara's Tahoe was parked in Nick's driveway.
"Did her friend stand her up? Or are you the friend?" Warrick had a mischievous glint in his eye.
Sara appeared in the doorway before Nick could respond. "Hey, Warrick."
"Sara." Warrick grinned.
Sara turned toward Nick. "Hey, thanks for letting me stop by, I found my hair scrunchie." She headed toward her Tahoe and waved. "See you guys tonight, gotta go meet my friend."
Nick raised a hand and waved as if she had only stopped by to pick up something she'd left there on her way somewhere else.
Warrick looked slightly confused, but quickly recovered. "Did you run your errands?
Nick shook his head. "Not all of them. I've got a few more to run before I can get some sleep."
"Alright then, see you tonight." Warrick started to head out to his Tahoe. "Hey, do you want to catch the game on Sunday?"
"Sounds good. Hey, we could watch it here, big screen surround sound." Nick grinned.
"Alright, it's a plan." Warrick climbed into his Tahoe and drove away.
Nick decided that he'd better actually run some errands especially if his CSI senses were telling him that Warrick's CSI senses would be driving around the block a few times and maybe stopping by Sara's. He went inside and blew out all the candles, put the giant stuffed monkey into his bedroom, grabbed his keys and headed out the door. Once he was in his Tahoe, he dialed Sara's number.
She picked up on the first ring. "Hey."
He chuckled. "Hey, yourself. Pretty quick thinking there, Sidle."
The tone in her voice indicated that she was smiling. "I thought so. I can't believe it worked though."
Nick rolled his eyes slightly. "Well, that remains to be seen. I have a feeling that Warrick still has a bit more sneaky up his sleeve. I think he'll circle my block a few more times and then go circle yours before he gives up for the day."
Sara giggled. "Well, what are you doing then?"
"I thought I'd run some errands. I wasn't sure what else to do." Nick replied sheepishly.
Sara was quiet. "So I guess that probably rules out you coming over here."
"Unfortunately, yes." Nick replied with a sigh.
"And it probably rules out me coming back over there." Sara continued.
"Right again." Nick replied.
"Hmm. And we're both going to be too tired to pick up where we left off by the time he gives up." Sara concluded.
"Yeah." Nick let out a deep breath. "Hey, why don't I call you in a little while. We can at least talk before we go to sleep."
"Ok." Sara didn't sound completely thrilled with the idea.
Nick ran a few errands and headed back home. He was tired, but he wanted to talk to Sara. He kicked his shoes off as he came in the door and set his keys, wallet, and cell phone down on the counter. He picked up the cordless phone and dialed Sara's number.
She picked up on the third ring. "Hello."
"Hey, Princess." Nick had that 'hey, baby' tone in his voice.
Sara giggled. "Hey, Chunky. What are you doing?"
"I just walked in and I was going to get ready to go to sleep. What are you doing?" He grinned.
"I'm taking a bath." Sara had a sultry tone in her voice.
Nick audibly gulped. "Oh."
Sara giggled. "What are you wearing?"
Nick grinned and chuckled. "Sara Sidle, are you doing what I think you're doing?"
She feigned innocence. "I don't know what you're talking about."
Nick continued. "Because if you are, I am far too overdressed for this conversation."
Sara laughed. It was a deep throaty laugh. "Nicky, Nicky, Nicky."
"You are doing what I think you are." Nick chuckled. "I don't care if Warrick finds out. I'm coming over there, because I sure as hell am not going to have phone sex with you when the only reason I'm not with you is because we're trying to torture Warrick."
"There's a key under the mat, and before you give me a lecture, I only put it out there before I got in the bathtub." Sara chuckled as she replied.
"I'll be there in less than ten minutes." Nick was already feeling a little too hot. He hung up the phone with Sara, put his shoes back on and grabbed his wallet, keys, and cell phone before running back out the door to his Tahoe. The ten minute drive to Sara's apartment was sheer torture. He ran up the steps to her second floor unit taking two at a time. He quickly found the key under the mat and unlocked the door, letting himself in. He closed the door and locked it behind him. He grinned as he took in the room. Sara had turned all the lights off save one over the stove in the kitchen. Nick kicked off his shoes and set his wallet, keys, and cell phone down on her counter. He wandered down the hall toward the bathroom, but noticed that the light was out and the tub was drained.
He grinned as he slowly opened the door to Sara's bedroom. She had lit about dozen candles in there, and he could see her grinning in the dim light as she lay under the comforter on the bed.
"You're still a little overdressed for this conversation, Nick." Sara grinned.
Nick grinned back at her and quickly pulled off his socks. "That better?"
Sara chuckled. "Not even close, Stokes."
He pulled his shirt over his head and struck a pose. "This working for you?"
Sara shook her head. "Nope."
Nick grinned at her and waggled his eyebrows as he slowly unzipped his pants. "Better?"
She nodded. "A little, but I think you can give me more than that."
He chuckled and slid his jeans down and kicked them off so that he was clad only in his boxers. "Now this is what you want, right?"
She giggled. "Take it all off, Nicky."
Nick waggled his eyebrows at her and slid his boxers down and stepped out of them. He struck another pose and winked at her. "Better?"
She nodded. "Yeah. Only one thing."
Nick raised an eyebrow. "I don't have anything more to take off, Sidle."
She giggled. "Uh, you could come join me."
Nick chuckled and a slightly embarrassed grin crossed his face. "I certainly don't want to disappoint you." He crawled up on the bed and pounced on Sara.
She let out a little yelp, but Nick quickly silenced it as his lips descended on hers and they became lost in each other as they touched, caressed, and explored each others bodies fully, finally making their bodies one and collapsing against each other spent. They drifted off to sleep, tangled together in Sara's bed.
"It could have waited until next shift." Nick replied.
"You have company?" Warrick queried suspiciously.
"Yeah, Sara stopped by." Nick was certain that Warrick already knew this since Sara's Tahoe was parked in Nick's driveway.
