Hey everyone! Sorry this chapter has taken so long to update. I've been a bit busy with work (bleh) and all of that fun stuff. So, this chapter is also going to be short because I'm in a hurry to finish this. Again, sorry for the short chapters. This is the last chapter to this story. Hope you all enjoyed it, and thanks to everyone who read and/or reviewed!
Nick's POV
It's always the same thing with her.
We come in, we smile at each other, we flirt, then we have a small argument, and then we're back to smiling and flirting. Although I find the arguments aggravating sometimes, I know they mean nothing compared to what we have overcome in these past six years. She's always been there for me, and I've always been there for her. I don't know what I'd do without her in my life. In fact, she is my life. I know, it sounds cheesy and corny, but it's the truth. She's part of the reason I decide to get up in the morning. Just seeing her face when I walk through the Las Vegas Crime Lab doors makes my day. Watching her smile makes me smile. Hearing her voice reminds me of how much I missed it when the team was split up, and when I was buried alive.
She is my protector; my saviour. I can't imagine how I lived without her. She is always there for me to talk to. Even if we are just sitting in a room together, I know she is willing to listen to whatever it is that is on my mind. I can always count on her to comfort me, and, as corny as it sounds, protect me.
I know that she may not harbour the same feelings for me as I do her, but I can always hope. I see how she looks at Grissom, and I sometimes wonder if I will ever have what he has. It seems that everything about Grissom attracts her and draws her into a gravitational pull of love. The way he walks, the way he talks, the way he just looks at her. It makes me jealous of him. Jealous of how Grissom will always have her heart. Always share that special thing with her. The one special thing I want so desperately, I can never have. Grissom will always have her, and there is nothing I can do. I just wish she felt the same...and maybe she does, but I may never know.
I love her, I really do. If I was given a choice of her and one billion dollars, I'd choose her. I'd give up the world for her. I'd give up anything for her, including my life.
My name is Nick Stokes, and I know I'm in love with Sara Sidle.
Yeah, that was a short story. Sorry about that, but I'm trying to do my best to finish all my stories because I've got absolutely no time to write anymore. So, hope you all enjoyed this. And have a great week!
