Nick stood by the altar waiting for his bride. All his family were there and so as Sara's. The difference in quantity was seen exceptionally but it didn't make any disparity because they all love Nick and Sara so much. The whole night shift was there... they planned a day wedding so all of them could come. Some of Sara and Hannah's previous team were there to witness the event. It was a very intimate celebration held at a community church near where they live.

They had a long entourage of guests led by Lindsey and Sammy as the flower girls and Nicky the ring bearer. Warrick could tell that his friend was shaking in nervousness as he stood beside him being the best man and all. "Relax, she'll be there at the end of this line," he reassured his best pal.

"Thanks, man," Nick answered.

There walked Catherine and Grissom, Greg and one of Nick's sisters, Archie and another Stokes sister, David and Jacqui, Sara's older brother and Nick's female friend since high school. Even Hodges was there in the sidelines. Doc and his family attended as well. Then came the moment...

"This is it, man," Warrick whispered.

Sara appeared from behind the last guests on the line looking gorgeous in her pink designer wedding gown and sheer veil and a tiara of rubies. Although pregnant, she looked so sexy in everybody's eyes especially Nick's. Her parents escorted her closer and closer to him while maid-of-honor, Hannah, followed from behind.

She could see the tears fighting to escape his eyes from where she was standing. She couldn't help but cry as well for many reasons. One of which was her parents and brother was there for her on this special day of her life. Second, she was the luckiest woman in the world to be married to this perfect guy. And three, at last, her family was officially complete. They reached at last the altar after what seemed like an endless walk.

Nick stepped up and held out his hand, not breaking his gaze with Sara's. The priest asked Sara's parents, "Who gives away this daughter to this man?" Her father took her hand and placed it firmly on Nick's.

He whispered in his ear, "You take care of my baby girl, okay? If you don't..." but his wife held him back. Nick promised with all his heart, he will.

The wedding was beautiful. Everything went well except for a few bloopers on the candles and Hannah getting cake all over Archie's cheek and the dove landing on Lindsey's headdress. Hannah, who now lives with Archie, offered to take the twins for the week to leave the newlyweds alone and private.

Nick and Sara Stokes flew straight to Texas right after the reception. They agreed to open the presents when they got back home. Nick took his new wife to his hometown and spent their honeymoon there. The first night, he decided to show her his present.

"Nick... where are we going?" Sara droned for the 5th time. She was blindfolded in the backseat of his old truck. "Honey, please can I take this off?"

They stopped. He helped her out of the vehicle and carried her another 10 feet. "Close your eyes," he whispered seductively. She did and heard a wooden door open and he stepped inside with her. "You know that tradition that a husband should carry his wife into the threshold for good luck and longevity?" She nodded. "Open your eyes."

Slowly, she did, flinching a bit to the light. When she recovered, she gasped and almost cried on the spot. They were inside a fully functional and decorated vacation house complete with Magic Fingers, a fireplace for cold nights, 2-person bath tub and a swimming pool right in the middle of a garden. "Oh Nick..."

"You like? I mean, we don't have to live here but we can spend time alone or holiday with the kids in this place," he babbled just like Sammy. "This is like our little retreat... to cool down." When Sara remained silent, he started to rock back and forth like Nicky. "Sara?"

She turned to him and gave him a very passionate kiss. "Oh Nick, this is so beautiful! Oh my goodness, this... this is so wonderful. Thank you!" They kissed again.

"You are wonderful." They sat down and the leather sofa and cuddled. "I love you... I'm glad you're mine."

"And you are mine. It just seems so right," she whispered. She placed their hands on her tummy and hummed a song. "Nicky... what would you say if I have a girl?"

"I was kind of hoping for a boy but as long as it's our baby, it's okay," he answered.

She chuckled and kissed his chin. "What if I tell you..." she paused as he began giving her forehead and hair butterfly kisses. "Nick... do you want me to tell you they gender of our baby?" He stopped meekly and stared at her lovingly. "Nick, what if I tell you that this pregnancy will be Nicky and Sammy all over again?"

His mind was clouded with so much love that it didn't register that quickly. When it did, his mouth gaped and his eyes widened. "An... another s...set of t...t...twins?" he gibbered and his hand weighed down on her tummy. "Boy and girl?" clearer this time. Sara could just nod.

Twins run strong through both families. Nick has twin sisters, Sara's grandmother had a twin brother and she's supposed to have a twin as well. Sammy and Nicky were a big surprise to her and she was scared because she thought she was to do it alone. The pregnancy was long and hard and the pain was unbearable. But now, her second set... she is not alone. She is with the man of her life. Nick was massaging her tummy with obvious tears in his eyes. "Babe, you okay with that?"

He took her in his arms and once again declared to her his love. "Sara, this is... this is heaven! And I will be here every step of the way. I won't leave you and the twins... and this set, too. I'm so happy and I'm so proud of you."
