Nick climbed from his SUV and dragged himself inside, tossed his key on the small cabinet against the wall under the bar window. Sighing he went back towards the bedroom and grabbing some boxers and a tee shirt went to take a long hot shower. The spray hit his head and shoulders, the water fell down his back relaxing the tense muscles, and easing an on coming head ache.
'I just don't believe this, how did I mange to get my self into the mess? I must have a sign on me somewhere that say's: Hurt me please.' He thought as he lathered his hair with shampoo and conditioner, he turned off the water and stepping out (two wonderful seconds of naked Nicky) he grabs a towel and dries off. Donning his boxers leaves the now steam filled bathroom.
He goes into the kitchen and grabs a beer and sandwich and heads off to the comfort of his couch and any ball game that happens to be on the tube. After a while he relaxes and fall asleep to the sports channel, by this time ally has parked her truck down the street and snuck up to his living room window to spy in on him already sound asleep.
"Sleep well my little Nicky." She whispers into the night as she rounds the house to the back door and tried the knob, frowns when it won't budge.
'Dang locked' she pulls a small hair pin from her neatly placed bun and fiddles with it in the lock until she hear a soft click and the knobs turns. She tip toes through the hall way and out into the living room to stand over the back of the couch to watch Nick sleep just a she reaching out to stroke his face some one knocks at the door.
"Nick man it's just me you in there?" It's Warrick she gasps pulls away and a dash's back down the hall to the back door and is just out side when Nick stirs, stands and opens the door for Warrick to come in.
"Hey man, who you doing?" Warrick asked looking around the place a sudden chill fills him.
"Fine I guess I fell asleep on couch to the game." Nick answers flipping the TV off for the moment. Warrick looks his friend over, he looks exhausted, his face is drown and grey, his eyes are blood shot, testament to the fact that nick hasn't been getting enough sleep lately.
"Wow you look like hell man; you need to sleep while you're off work." Warrick grinned showing ill will in the statement, nick returned the gesture and they sat.
"Thanks at least I match the way I feel with the way I look." Nick replied, they sat around for a while just talking and laughing unaware of what might have happened had Warrick not shown up. Ally growls, and runs for her truck; to wait for her next chance to corner, her little Nicky.
"I got you once little man and I'll do it again." She vows hunkering down for what appears to be a long wait.
Meanwhile Grissom is having some difficulty reining in the troupes for what appears to be a long night, three homicides between four CSI's is not going to be easy.
"Alright I sent Warrick to cheak on Nick and we have to pull off taking in three cases with the man parwe we now have seeing as we're now done two CSI's, Sara you and Warrick have a DB on Madison road, Catherine you have a solo, and Greg you're going to be with me for now, alright get moving guys the sooner who finish with you work the sooner you out of here and can all rush at once to see Nick." Grissom smiled and they filed out leaving Grissom alone with his bugs for a few minutes of peace. He's is leaving his office when his cells rings he looks at the id and grins,
"Hey Warrick how's Nicky?" HE asks almost laughing when he hears Nick voice in back ground.
"OH He's doing just fine, he says as long he doesn't to se Ally for the rest of his natural born life." Warrick sputters into the phone they al share a laugh and then after giving Warrick his latest assignment they disconnect.
Warrick bids good bye and heads to his truck, Ally eyes him and waits impatiently for him to be gone then climbs out of the truck and runs for nicks house, Going to a window the peers in and spies Nick back on the couch watching something on the discovery channel, she can hear the bird chirping from where she stands. She watches him closely and notices his eyes closing when they finally close she waits a few more minutes to make sure he's asleep and then goes back around to the back door, smiles to find still unlocked. She once more tip toes to the living room and leans over the back of the couch and places and hand gently on his cheek Nick stir at the touch but, does not awaken from what ever dreams have captured him, she strokes his face and then coming around the other side kneels down and lays her on his forehead raking his fingers through his short brown hair forcing back and to the side, this time Nick stirs and his eyes open to narrow slits.
"Who..." that's as far his sspeech got when he laid eyes on ally even through slits he jumped off his couch and backed away from her.
"What the hell, how did you get in here?" He asked looking over at the door, he hadn't forgotten to lock it he returns his attention to Ally who has moved closer to him he takes two giant steps back and stops.
"Stay away from me, don't you get it yet I don't like you, and personally it bordering a hate." Nick told her but she only grins.
"I don't care if you like me or not, It doesn't matter I don't need you to like me for me to have you." She purrs coming closer still. Nick takes another giant step back and slams into the wall, he looks around for something to protect himself with.
"You really are crazy, get the hell out of my house." He commanded his voice stronger then he feels at the moment. She pressed against him forcing him to pull back further only to be stopped by the wall, she steal a lng passionate kiss and th retreats to the couch.
"You really don't remember me do you." She asked him sounding disappointed, Nick looked closely and is going say no when something smacls him in the gut, he does know her, it the same person he prayed to see again when he was nine years old,
"It's you, how did you find me and why do you want me after all this time?" Nick asked slideing down the wall and and stareing out at her.
"I've had the liitle Nicky noe I want to taste the Big one." She grins evilly at him and Nick swallows hard.
"I won't let you hurt me again." He swears standing up and gpoing for te phone on the table, grabbing it he holds for a precouse few second when all 150 pounds of Ally crash ointo him and the phone lfies away to crash against the wall.
"No get off of me you witch I won't let you do this." He struggles to free him self she presses down on him and he looks into her terrible face it contorted rage he struggles to throw her off of him, but she doesn't give, finally his turns taking all his weight pushes it right and knocks the both of them over Ally lands in a heap and Nick gets up and run for the bed room phone slamming the door behind himself he grabs the phone a cordless and hits 911.
"I need back up at this address ASAP, my name in Stokes I'm being attacked in my home." He disconnects and runs to the window he pushes it back and climbs out. Not sure what else to do he ducks under the brush in his back yard and tries to stay still. A few minutes later Ally comes around the side of the house looking for him, Nick holds his breath waiting.
"Come out; come out where ever you are. I am going to find you Nicky." She vows stomping the brush just the right of where Nick lays.
Warrick is back at the lab going through his evidence when his phone rings, it brass.
"Yeah what's up man," HE says, and freezes listening.
"Alight I'm on my way now." HE rushes out to find Grissom in his office he tells what happened and they leave together the others in tow.
