Chapter 2
Unfortunately Sara found him in the locker room getting ready to leave.
"Hey," said Sara hesitantly.
"Hey, Sara," said Nick looking up.
(Flashbacks)
Sara woke up with a massive headache. She felt like crap. She wanted to get up but couldn't because an arm was loosely wrapped around her waist. That was when she realized her naked state andit was definitely a man's arm on her waist. Then it hit her, bad case, beers, Nick's place and…
"Oh my god," Sara mouthed because she didn't want to wake Nick. She turned to Nick and saw he was lying on his stomach and sleeping peacefully. Sara scanned the room for her clothes and saw a trail of clothing beginning from the living room. She slowly took Nick's arm off of her. Fortunately her pants were nearby. She got up and hoped Nick wouldn't get up. She made her way to the living room in search of her bra and top. She found them and picked it up.
"Sara?"
Sara quickly wrapped herself with the top which didn't cover that much.
"Damn it,"thought Sarato herself. She had really hoped just to leave and act like nothing happened.
"Sara, are you leaving," asked Nick. He was in his boxers.
"Yeah," said Sara awkwardly. She just wanted to wear her top and get the hell out of there.
"Sara, you can't just leave like that, we need to talk," said Nick.
"Nick, can you turn around, I need toget onmy shirt."
"It's not like I've never seen you naked, Sara," said Nick chuckling. Sara just gave him a glare that meant she really didn't think this situation was funny.
"All right, sorry," said Nick turning around.
Sara quickly put on her shirt and shoved her bra into her pants' pocket.
"You can turn around now, Nick."
Nick turned to Sara and they just looked at each. There were a few seconds of awkward silence until Sara broke it.
"Nick, I…I need to go, I need to think about this."
"Sara, you can't just leave, we have to talk about what happened."
"I know, but not now, I need to think it over and I have a headache."
"Promise we'll talk later?"
"Yeah."
(End Of Flashbacks)
So they talked and decided it was a mistake. It happened because they were trying to unwind after that tough case. But they both were in denial. They knew it was so much more and they have deeper feelings for each other but both of them were too afraid to admit those feelings. So they just remained friends even though it was more strained and awkward and not like before. They were unhappy but did nothing about it.
"Nick, I need to tell you something," said Nick.
"Yeah," said Nick. He looked up because Sara sounded really serious.
"You okay Sara, you look tired," asked Nick concerned. After what happened Nick still cared about her.
"Yeah, Nick, you have to sit down for this," said Sara taking a seat on the bench. Then followed by Nick.
Nick just sat next to Sara waiting her to tell him what was wrong. She was fidgeting and looking at her shoes. Then she slowly turned to Nick.
"Nick, please don't freak when I tell you this," said Sara.
"Sara, what are you talking about," asked Nick. He was really confused.
"I'm pregnant," said Sara. She just looked at Nick to gauge his reaction. He just sat there expressionless.
"Nick?" called Sara after few seconds of silence.
"What," asked Nick looking confused.
"I said I'm pregnant and it's yours," said Sara.
"Are you sure?" asked Nick not quiet believing it. He really wished this was just a dream because he really did not want to be a father just yet. Yes, his feelings for Sara was strong but a child? This was just toomuch for him.
"I'm sure, Nick, I took 5 pregnancy tests," said Sara feeling hurt because Nick was acting unlike how she hoped he would.
"Are you sure it's mine?" asked Nick. He knew he was being ridiculous but he just wished this wasn't happening. Sara was getting sadder and tears were forming in her eyes.
"It's yours, Nick, I've never been with anyone else since that night," said Sara sniffling.
"Sara, I'm sorry, but Ihave togo , I need to think this over," said Nick grabbing his stuff and started walking towards the door.
"Fine, if you don't want this baby, I'll raise it by myself," said Sara forcefully looking into his eyes.
Nick was stunned by her words.
"Sara, that's not what I meant."
"Save it, Nick,"
"If you want to act like this, fine by me," said Nick going out of the room. He knew his words were harsh but he was getting frustrated.
Sara sat on the bench and started to cry. She knew it was dangerous to cry in the locker room because someone might walk in on her. But she was so sad, disappointed and angry with Nick. This was his fault too but he acted like it was all her fault. He was there as well and she remembered despite her drunken state, he enjoyed it.
"Sara?" called Greg. She did not realize he walked in.
"Yeah, I'm just grabbing my stuff, I'll be right out," said Sara trying to get rid of Greg.
"Sara, are you okay? Why are you crying," asked Greg sitting next to her.
"I'm fine, Greg."
"No, you're not, Sara, tell me what's wrong," asked Greg taking her hand in his.
Sara sighed. She knew she couldn't hide it from Greg. He'd really grown up since he became a CSI and they were closer than they used to be.
"Greg, I'll tell you later, we need to work."
"Promise you'll tell me?"
"Yes, I promise."
"Okay," said Greg not letting go of Sara's hand.
"Greg, can you let go of my hand? I got togo wash my face," said Sara awkwardly.
"Oh, sorry, it's not like everyday I get to hold the lovely Sara Sidle's hand," said Greg. Sara just chuckled at him.
"You're cute, you know that," said Sara.
"I try."
"Why don't you go to briefing, I'll catch up."
"Okay."
Okay, there goes. REVIEW! I'd love to know what you think
