^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nick Stokes walked in the lab ten minutes early so it was not a repeat of yesterday but every mirror he passed he looked to make sure he was looking all right. He walked in the locker room to find Catherine.

"Hey you, I'm glad to see your wardrobe is getting better." Catherine teased.

"You and Sara are never going to let me live that one down are you?"

"Us are you crazy? Never!" Catherine said smiling.

"Great."

"Don't take it the wrong way Nicky."

"Nick, call me Nick."

"Why?" Catherine asked.

"Because Nicky is a child's name, I'm a grown man."

Just then Sara walked in.

"Who's a grown man? I don't see one." Sara said teasingly.

"Great double trouble." Nick said shutting his locker.

"No you and Warrick are double trouble, we are hard working ladies that deserve some kind of break." Catherine said.

"Yeah right." Nick said leaving the room.

Once Nick left Catherine turned to face Sara. "Sara would you say Nicks been acting funny lately?"

"A little, why?"

"Never mind." Then Catherine left the room leaving Sara a bit confused.

Back in the break room Nick was pouring himself a cup of coffee having a conversation with Warrick when Warrick interrupted.

'Hey man, isn't it around this time of year when you got to Dallas for a couple weeks?"

"Yeah but Rachel, my oldest sister, wants me to bring a friend and you cant go because of your court date that is coming up and I don't want to hear all my sisters saying don't you have any friends and if you do how come they aren't here, you don't know how annoying it is to hear them."

"Well you have other choices besides me."

"Well I can't bring Grissom or Catherine."

"So bring Sara."

"Yeah right, Sara wouldn't want to go with me."

"Why?"

"Because... she... just wouldn't?"

"How do you know if you never asked her?"

Just then Sara walked in.

"Are you two talking about me?" Sara asked with a smirk.

"No." Nick said but Warrick spoke at the same time.

"Yes."

"So what about Warrick?" Sara asked.

"Nothing." Nick answered for Warrick.

"Chill Nick, Me and Nick were talking about when he is going to Dallas and who he should take." Warrick said.

"Well I can't go I have things to do." Sara answered pouring coffee.

Nick tried not to look hurt but he just could not help it and he noticed Warrick and Catherine share a grin but he did not know why, he felt hurt so he left the room.

"Well I guess Nick was right." Warrick said trying to form some kind of plan to get Sara to go.

"About what?" Sara asked.

Catherine butted in knowing Warrick's little plan

"Well Nick saying something about you finding an excuse not to go."

"Catherine, you were with me when Nick and Warrick were talking."

"I know but he said something about it the other day."

"He did?" Sara asked.

"Yeah but he was right, I mean Warrick and I have a court date so that's why we cant go and who wants to go on a vacation with Grissom."

"Come on Sara, you might have fun." Warrick said.

"Grissom wouldn't let me take two weeks off to go to Dallas when he is already going to be missing Nick."

"I bet I can change his mind." Catherine said with a wink.

"Fine, if you can change his mind then I will go but if you cant then obviously I'm not going."

"Ok, we have a deal." Warrick said impatient to tell Nick.

"So why are you two trying to make me go?"

"No reason." Catherine said.

"Whatever." Then Sara left.

Warrick sprang from his seat and went to each room till he finally found Nick sitting at the table looking over something, he still looked hurt.

"She is going!" Warrick said excited for Nick.

"What?"

"Catherine and I convinced Sara to go with you."

"Really!" Nick said standing up smiling a big smile.

"Nick can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"Do you love her?"

Nick looked surprised but smiled and said, "I think so, but I'm not sure."
