Thanks to everyone who's been reviewing. I like that people are reading and seem to like it as this is my first CSI fanfic and the good feedback I'm getting might just inspire me to write another Nick and Sara story. I think they are just meant to be!!

Feels Like Home Chapter 5

"Sorry Sara, but how do you know I was lying" Nick said looking her directly in the eyes. Sara stared at him for a while unsure of what he meant by that. "Of course you were lying Nick, we aren't really dating, so you hardly meant that did you" she sighed exasperated. "Sara why would you believe that I could lie so easily about something like that, I thought you knew me better than that" he said sadly. "I heard you Nick" Sara replied, "Are you telling me that you didn't say it because that would be another lie". "No I'm not saying I didn't say it Sara, I did say it" Nick sighed. "Well then that's how I can believe that you could lie about something like that, because you said it and it wasn't true therefore it was a lie" Sara said walking away. "And there couldn't possibly be any other explanation, could there Sara?" Nick asked and she turned around. Sara just looked at him. "I couldn't have been telling the truth could I?" Nick asked softly. Sara was completely confused "What do you mean by that Nick?" Sara asked.

"What I mean by that is Sara that when my mother asked me about you I told her the truth, I could never lie to my mother about something like that she would know instantly" Nick replied walking closer to Sara. "I don't understand Nick what are you saying?" Sara stammered as Nick lifted his hand to wipe a tear from her cheek, she shivered at his touch. "I'm saying Sara Sidle that what I said about you being a great girl and liking you and about you being the one, I meant every word, I'm in love with you Sara in case you haven't realised, I didn't want to say anything because of Grissom and your feeling for him" Nick finished and looked up at Sara. Sara stood in a shocked, stunned silence staring at Nick. Had he just told her he was in love with her? All she could manage was "Huh?" " Nice to see I have the power to render you speechless" Nick said grinning trying to lighten the mood.

"Sara I'm sorry if what I've said has made you uncomfortable and I'll understand completely if you want to leave" Nick said when Sara still didn't speak. "No Nick I well I" Sara stammered. "It's fine Sara maybe I should go leave you alone for a while," Nick said walking away. "No Nick wait" Sara ran after him and pulled him back by his sweater, Nick spun around and before he had a chance to speak Sara closed the distance between them and kissed him, it took him a few minutes to realise what was happening but when he did he returned the kiss with all the passion he had been holding back for three years.

"Wow" Sara breathed when they finally broke apart for air. "That was amazing" Nick said as he wrapped his arms around Sara. "Glad you thought so Stokes" Sara giggled as she reached her arms around his neck, and rested her head on his shoulder. "Sara you don't know how long I've been waiting for this moment" Nick said smiling down at her. "I think I do Nick, in the last few weeks I've realised my infatuation with Griss was clouding my judgement and I hadn't even realised I was in love with someone else" Sara said. "Who?" Nick asked suddenly worried. "You" Sara stated simply. "That's good because I've never felt this way before" Nick replied kissing Sara lightly on the forehead. "Nick you make me feel special, yet you let me be me, when I'm with you I feel like I'm finally where I belong, it feels like I've come home" Sara said looking up into his brown eyes, God he has sexy eyes Sara thought. "I know what you mean Sara I feel the same" Nick smiled down at her; she is really beautiful he thought as he captured her lips with his in a passionate kiss. Nick moaned softly as Sara's tongue entered his mouth and began moving around sensuously. As they parted for air Nick realised the time. " Hey Sara much as I love this we should get back before my mom sends out a search party" Nick smiled holding out his hand to Sara, she accepted it and they headed back.
