Chapter 22

J.T. Stokes

Summary: Sara is home from the hospital and a name is finally chosen.

A/N: Instead of going through another 4 weeks of isolation in chapters I'm just having this chapter be at the end of her isolation where she returns home.

"Hey, calm down there little man I promise as soon as I'm near some pickles and bananas I'll give you some". Sara said resting her hand on her now 7 month pregnant belly.

"How's daddy's little guy doing this morning"? Nick asks kissing Sara's tummy.

"He's hungry and so am I". Sara said kissing Nick.

"Pickles and banana's again"?

"You know me so well".

"Yuck"!

"Well, you wouldn't think so if you had hormones and cravings riding your ass".

"From what I hear Catherine craved olives and strawberry yogurt". Nick said scrunching his face up.

"Yum, that sounds really good".

Nick walked back out to where Sara was sitting with olives, bananas, pickles and strawberry yogurt all on a tray.

"Oh, thank you Nicky I love you so much".

"I love you too, I'm so glad you're feeling better and that you're finally home where you belong".

"I'm sort of bummed out that the doctor told us the sex of our baby, but then again I understand that he had to under the circumstances". Sara said reaching over for Nick's hand.

"James Tyler Stokes".

"What"? Sara asked confused.

"What do you think of the name"?

"I like it".

"I was thinking James after Brass, because he's walking you down the aisle in a couple of days and because he's been a great friend".

"That's a wonderful idea". Sara replied smiling.

Sara looked at Nick for a second.

"What's wrong"?

"What about Grissom"?

"What about him, oh- you mean him walking me down the aisle"?

Nick nodded.

"He'll understand, besides he's already been named Godfather".

"I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse". Nick said doing his best Brando impression.

Warrick walked through the door laughing hysterically.

"Since when does the Godfather have a southern twang"?

"Jeez bro, don't sneak up on us like that". Nick said almost yelling.

"Sorry, I thought you heard the doorbell".

"No, we were in deep thought on how to tell Grissom he's not walking Sara down the aisle on Saturday".

Sara smiled at Warrick.

"What's on your mind beautiful"? Warrick asked rubbing her belly as he pecked her cheek.

"We chose a name for the baby".

"Really, what is it"?

"James Tyler". Nick said proudly.

"We're naming him after Brass or his first name anyways". Sara said.

"I'm sure he'll appreciate that, he's a pretty terrific friend if I do say so myself". Warrick responded.

"Yeah, I hope so". Sara replied.

Warrick and Nick sipped back a couple of beers while Sara drank her orange juice as they soaked up some of the mid day Las Vegas sun on their pool deck.

A/N: Yes, Sara and Nick bought a new house with a pool (Nick with no shirt on….crap Warrick and Nick with no shirt on LOL)
