Oh my god thanks for all the reviews. I seriously thought no one would want to read my fic anymore. You guys rock! Anyways here's chapter 12


Chapter 12

Few months later:

Sara was in her fifth month of pregnancy. She had been better after she resolved things with Nick but she knew those feelings between them were still there even though she tried to ignore it because she did not want to break Greg's heart after all that he had done for her.

Grissom also had banned her from field work and now she was only doing paperwork. That was because everything she smelt will make her want to vomit. Now all she could do was paperwork and Nick and Greg made sure that was all she did. Sara was a little ticked off but grateful she had two wonderful men that cared about her.

Sara was walking towards the lab because she wanted to stretch after mountains of paperwork she had done.

"Hey guys," said Sara. Nick and Greg were at the lab waiting for Mia to give them their DNA results.

"Sara..," started Nick.

"What are you doing here?" continued Greg. Sara just rolled her eyes. She hated it when they act like this over protective brothers.

"I was just tired with all those paperwork."

"But you know those chemicals here are not good for the baby," said Greg.

"And for you either," continued Nick.

"Are you sure there's nothing going on between you two? You continue each other's sentence like you're meant to be together," said Sara smiling.

"Sara, we're serious here."

"I'll be fine, you are so over reacting out of nothing," said Sara.

"I'm over-reacting?" said Greg pointing at himself like it was so unbelievable.

"Yeah, give her a break," said Mia. She could not slap off the smile off of her face. She did not know the whole story about Sara's pregnancy but all she knew Sara had two men that loved her to death but Sara had not realized that.

"Thanks Mia," said Sara.

"Sara, what are you doing here? You're not supposed to be here," came Grissom's voice from the doorway. Sara just groaned.

"Yeah, that's what we were trying to tell her," said Nick.

"Griss.. oh.. ow," said Sara holding her stomach.

"Sara, are you okay?" asked Nick. He and Greg were already holding her.

"Yeah, fine, I think it just kicked, feel it!" said Sara taking Nick's hand. He felt it and the biggest smile took over his face.

"That's our baby," whispered Nick only Greg and Sara could hear him.

"Yeah," said Sara with tears in her eyes. Greg felt a little jealous and out of place because he felt he wanted to be the father of the child and share all the joy and happiness with Sara.

"Greg, come on, feel it," said Sara taking his hand.

"Wow," said Greg, amazed.

Mia and Greg just stood there with smiles on their faces. They were happy for Sara and the men that loved her and the baby.

"Does it hurt?" asked Nick.

"I think we've got a professional soccer player in there," said Sara smiling.

"And you're gonna be a soccer mom" said Greg laughing.

"Very funny, Greg," said Sara.

"Don't you two have work?" asked Grissom.

"Just waiting for Mia," said Nick.

"Done," said Mia.

Grissom gave them the 'go-to-work-now' look and both of them groaned.


A couple of days later:

"Greg, you heading home?" asked Sara. Greg was still busy going through the evidence of his latest case.

"Sorry, Sara, I think I have to pull a double," said Greg.

"That's fine."

"We carpooled remember? How are you going home? I f you want I can send you."

"No, I'll get a ride with Nick or something, don't worry about it."

"Okay, take care of yourself, okay?"

"I know, bye," said Sara.

Sara walked towards the locker room to grab her stuff. She hoped Nick was still there.

"Nick, good, you're still here," said Sara as she found Nick there.

"Why?" asked Nick.

"Do you think you could give me a ride? Greg had to pull a double and we carpooled earlier."

"Yeah, no problem, anything for you," said Nick. His words had a deeper meaning than Sara thought.


After they were all set they got into Nick's Denali.

"Hey Sara, do you think you wanna have breakfast with me? You know, it's been a long time since we hung out together," said Nick.

"Yeah, sure, I am a little hungry."

"You are eating for two."

"And I've been craving for chocolate covered strawberries and whipped cream," said Sara.

"Ooooh.. kinky," said Nick jokingly.

"Get your mid out of the gutter, Stokes," said Sara rolling her eyes at Nick's childishness.

"Okay, what about after breakfast we get some whipped cream and strawberries for you," offered Nick.

"Really?" said Sara excitedly with a big grin in her face.

"Yeah," said Nick laughing at Sara's eagerness.

"Well, can't you drive faster, Nick."


"Ugh.. if I keep eating like this I'll be like a whale after this baby come out," said Sara after finishing her few pieces of pancakes and an omelet.

"I don't think you are even capable to be fat, Sara," said Nick. Sara's cheek had a tinge of pink when Nick said that.

"Look at me now, I am fat," said Sara.

"There's a difference between being fat and being pregnant, Sara."

"Yeah, tell that to my favourite shirt."

Nick just laughed.

"I bet after this I'm going to gain a little weight."

"Wanna go to the gym I go to after the bay comes out?" offered Nick.

"Sure," said Sara smiling at Nick.

"Wanna go get that whipped cream, now?"

"Yeah," said Sara sitting up.

Nick called the waitress for the check. Sara was about to pay for it but Nick abruptly stopped her.

"I got this," said Nick.

"Nick, we can split this," said Sara.

"It's okay," said Nick.

Sara finally admitted defeat. There was no stopping a Texan man from being chivalrous.

"Okay, let's go get some whipped cream," said Nick waggling his eyebrows like he was suggesting something else.

The waiter just looked at the couple knowingly. Sara was blushing furiously.

"Nick! That was so embarrassing," scowled Sara once the waitress was gone.

"Well, it's not my fault the waitress likes to think dirty," said Nick chuckling.

"You know, you could be a kid sometimes."

"Tease me more and you won't get your whipped cream."

"Fine," said Sara pointedly.


"Mmm… I never thought strawberries could taste this good," said Sara.

"You know, you could've waited until we reach your place to eat that," said Nick smiling.

"I'm hungry."

"You just ate."

"Whatever, now where's that whipped cream?" asked Sara.

"It's in one of the bags," said Nick. They planned just to buy the whipped cream and strawberries but ended up buying some groceries for Nick.

"Found it," announced Sara excitedly. She shook the bottle and sprayed it all over the strawberries.

"You better not get cream all over my seat," said Nick.

Few minutes later they arrived at Sara's place. Sara already finished most of the strawberries. They were still in the car.

"Didn't your mom ever teach you manners?" asked Nick.

"What?"

"You didn't even offer me one of those."

Sara just smiled sheepishly.

"Well, you could've asked," said Sara offering the strawberries.

"No, I want you to feed me."

"Feed you? You're kidding right?"

"No."

"Baby!" said Sara. She took one of the strawberries and fed it to Nick.

"Happy?" said Sara rolling her eyes.

"Very," said Nick with his mouth full.

"Wait, you have a little cream there," said Sara rubbing some cream off of his mouth. As soon as her finger touched his skin they felt a little jolt between them. The atmosphere felt tense. They just stared at each other.

"Uh…all gone," said Sara finally breaking the moment.

"Thanks," said Nick clearing his throat.

"I uh.. better go now," said Sara.

"Yeah."

"Thanks for breakfast, bye Nick."

"No problem."

Sara exited the car and Nick drove off. As soon as Nick was gone Sara saw Greg's Denali with him looking not that all happy. Sara knew he saw everything and she froze.

"Greg…," mouthed Sara.


Uh oh. What's gonna happen now? I know I said I want to post two chapters at a time but I think this is a great time to leave a cliffhanger. Hope you like it. REVIEW!
