Chapter 7: All's well that ends well

(This chapter is set to the song If everyone cared by Nickelback)

a few months later

Nick and Sara walked hand in hand down the hall of CSI HQ as they headed towards the locker room. Their shifts were just about to start and they were going to change from the clothes they had worn on their date into work clothes. They had been dating ever since what had happened to Greg and Megan. Everyone at the lab couldn't believe how even though they had only been dating for a few months they were truly in love. Some of the girls at the Crime lab were kind of jealous that womanizer Nick Stokes had finally found the right girl for him and that he had found it in Sara Sidle, the woman who didn't seem to be able to have a trusting relationship with a man. With that there were a few men at the crime lab that were jealous of Nick to have finally hooked Sara.

They were coming back from a double date with Greg and Megan and Sara was a little suspicious of Nick right now. She knew that he something planned because of the way he acted when they were at the restaurant together. Greg and Megan acted like as if they knew what it was, but didn't say a word.

''What do you think? Brown or Blue? '' Nick asked Sara turning to show her the two sweater possibilities he had.

''Well that you got on right now looks pretty good to me'' Sara said looking at Nick well muscled bare chest

Nick huffed a laugh '' I don't think Grissom would let this pass''

''Since when do you ask for my opinion on your wardrobe anyway? Okay….Blue'' She told him

''Brown it is than'' He smiled at her

Sara glared at him and Nick just laughed he slipped on the blue sweater.

''Nick, is there something going on? I mean at dinner you acted like as if there was something you weren't telling me, but what's worse it looked like Greg and Megan knew, but for some reason you couldn't tell me?''

''Sara there's nothing going on, ahh….it's just that there's something I got to ask you and I might of talked about it to Megan already and of course she tells Greg and than, well you know and it's important''

''You can ask me anything Nick you know that''

''Yeah I do know, it's nothing bad, I was kinda waiting till after shift, but now I guess that there's no time like the present huh? ''

Nick took her hand and sat her down on the bench in the middle of the room and sat down saddle-wise on it as well.

''Well we've been dating a few months now and they've been great''

''They have''

''You don't know how much I've enjoyed the time that we've spent together. I look forward to coming to work because I know you'll be here. I love picking you up for a date and just being with you in any way. But I realized now that ahh….I want to be with you more than that ahh… I want you by my side when I wake up in the morning and I want you by my side when I go to sleep and I was wondering…''

''Its okay Nick just ask''

''Sara Sidle, do you want to move in together?''

Sara drew in fast and kissed Nick on the lips.

''Can I take that as a yes? ''

''You sure can cowboy'' Sara said as Nick drew close and kissed her

Greg Sanders and his girlfriend Megan Connors sat on a blanket together. She was lying in his arms and they were both staring up at the starry sky. They had somehow both gotten the night off and were using it to the full.

''Do you think he asked her yet?'' Megan asked

''He said he was going to wait till after shift, but knowing Sara I don't think she'll let it dangle for that long''

''You're probably right'' Megan nodded ''i bet this is one of the few spots in Vegas where you can see this many stars'' Megan said

''Well there's The Strip, a lot of stars goes there to gamble and check out the hotels and casinos'' Greg said looking at Megan with a smile

''That's not what I meant and you know it'' Megan laughed giving him a slight punch in the arm.

''What have I said about hitting me? ''

''Not to do it'' Megan said in an little child's voice

''That's right''

They both stared to look at the stars again; the temptation was too great on Megan as she punched Greg in the arm again.

''Okay that's it now you asked for it'' Greg said as he started to tickle Megan on her sides.

''Greg no! Ha! Stop it'' Megan laughed as she grabbed Greg's thighs and started to tickle him as well

''Stop it! Megan! '' Greg laughed as they rolled over still tickling each other. Greg lay on top of Megan as he continued to tickle her ''now are you going to stop hitting me? '

''Yes! '' Megan somehow managed to say

Greg stopped and looked down at his girlfriend. He couldn't believe that even with what she had gone through she was still the same wonderful person that he had fallen in love with.

''I love you''

''I love you too'' She smiled and they came close and kissed.

Greg grabbed her hand and brought her to stand up.

''Megan, it's been a few months since it all happened, but you know I still think about it nearly every day''

''So do I you never know what could have happened. But what I know is that you're still here with me and that's all that matters''

''The only thing I care about is that you're here with me too. After it all happened when I thought that I had lost you, I realized that if I ever did I'd be lost. I couldn't imagine living my life without you, without seeing you everyday, telling you how much I love you. I realized that I need I need you in my life because without you I have no life. The thing that I need to make it complete is you so…'' Greg words trailed off as he went down on one knee

''Oh my god'' Megan whispered

''Megan Connors I love you so much'' He pulled a little black box from his pocket and opened it to reveal a beautiful diamond ring. ''Will you marry me?''

Megan brought her hands up to wipe the tears of joy that were coming down the side of her face

''Yes''

Greg slipped the ring onto her finger, got up and they kissed. Both knew that this was the start of a new life together, one full of excitement and love.
