You could have heard a pin drop at that moment. Shock was written all over everyone's faces. Catherine blinked in disbelief a couple of times, not saying anything. Kay was the first to speak.

"So this is my Dad." The girl looked at Nick, a mixture of emotions written on her face. "Hi." She greeted simply. She then turned to her mother. "I'm going to get some air or something." She briskly walked out without waiting for an answer.

"So, um, you guys..." Catherine was still having trouble comprehending this that Sara and Nick had slept together. She knew they had both felt more then friendly feelings towards each other. Hell, she might have even gone as far as to say they could have been in love with each other. Though neither of them would have ever admitted it. But never in a million years did she think they had ever acted on it.

"Yes. When did this happen? We all thought you were just friends." Warrick added. Nick and Sara looked at each other.

"Well, it was about two months before I left..."

--Flashback—

"Aw shit." Nick Smiled as he walked over to where Sara stood fuming at her car.

"I blew a damn tire." Nick couldn't help but think how cute she was when she was mad. He desperately wished he could tell her that, but he knew she'd probably end his life if he did.

"Do you need a ride home?"

"Would you?"

"Sure. Come on." She picked up her kit and followed him to his car.

"Thanks so much!" he grinned at her. She could feel her heart flutter at that grin. She was starting to wish more and more that he thought of her as more then a friend.

"Its no problem!" the pair sat in comfortable silence until they reached Sara's apartment. She looked at him.

"Hey, do you want to come in for a drink?" Sara instantly regretted saying this as soon as the words left her mouth. Nick didn't seem to notice her embarrassment.

"Sure!"

An hour later, the two sat laughing on Sara's couch. Each had had about three beers and was relatively drunk. Their eyes met, and both ceased laughing. As if an invisible force pulled him towards her, Nick leaned over and pressed his lips against hers. Softly at first, but the kiss intensified as she eagerly responded. As they came up for air, she stood up, pulling him with her. No more words were traded as they made there way to her bedroom.

The next morning, they had agreed that that night had meant nothing; it was just a drunken stand. One that was to be forgotten. In there hearts, they both knew that neither of them had been that drunk. Maybe it was the beer that made Nick kiss her. But both of them had been completely aware of what was happening when they made love. And they both knew it had meant a whole lot more then either of them was willing to admit. But, they did not want to be truthful, so they used the beer as a convenient excuse for what had happened.

--End of Flashback—

Tears fell from Sara's eyes as she concluded the story. "A few weeks later, I started getting sick. And when I didn't get my period, I went to the doctor. When I found out I was pregnant, I panicked. So I made some calls and got a job at a crime lab up in Nashville, where I eventually became day shift supervisor."

"Wow." Grissom looked at the younger woman in disbelief. Catherine looked at him, feeling pity for the man. She knew that her boss had also had more then friendly feelings towards the young CSI; most people had thought Sara had returned those feelings. Catherine had for a while, before she noticed a change in Nick and Sara's relationship. She wondered what would have happened if Sara hadn't left. She wondered if they would have ever confessed their feeling towards each other. But above all, she wondered what Nick would do now that he knew he had a daughter.


Kay sunk down against the concrete wall of the lab. She couldn't believe it. She had spent so long looking for her father, and now here he was, right inside the building. Tears streamed down her face as she buried her face in her knees and let the emotion that had been built up for so long come out.


A/N: I am sorry this is such a short chapter. I just really have to go to sleep and I still have to go over my biology noted for my test tomorrow. I knew I shouldn't have put it off until the last moment! Lol. Well, review! It will make me update faster.
