Nick and Amanda were sitting in the Italian a few blocks away from the station. Talking about different things and she said oh here before I forget again, and she lifted a key from her inside pocket handing it to him. He said, no keep it, you'll need it… I hope for a long time. He took her hand and rubbed over the back with his fingers, she was speechless, she said, are you sure? And he said, yeah smiling. Call it your Christmas present. She looked and said, but I haven't got you a gift and he replied oh but you've already given me my gift mi cariño, and it's the best Christmas gift I've ever got. She just started at him and said yeah, you're my best gift, and smiled.
A few hours later they were all getting ready to leave on time. No cases had come in and Nick was thankful for that as it meant he could leave on his planned flight tomorrow.
Right guys, see you all soon said Benson. Yes, the other 3 said, we'll see you and Noah at 7pm Liv.
They all headed out to the garage and got into their respective cars. Nick was first to his house, with Amanda not long behind him. They both got in and Nick got already the kettle on. When she came in, she walked over to him in the kitchen and kissed him passionately. When they came up for breath she said, I've waited to do that all day. You're quick pecks weren't enough for me. And Barba making me cry, what was that about? I just wanted to hug into your chest baby. He pulled her closer to him, kissed her temple and said I know mi cariño, I wanted to hold you. She looked up and said I know you did and kissed his chest. They stood there for a few minutes then she said, right we need to get a move on, if we're to make it to Olivia's on time. He kissed her and they both walked to his bedroom. He turned the shower on and said, you know, it would save time if we both got in, he winked. She walked over to him and started to undress him as he started pulling her trousers down. They both stepped into the shower and things got heated pretty quickly. He lathered up his hands and started washing her back, then moved around to her chest, then down below. He paid particular attention to there and she started to groan, she leaned back into him and she could feel his hardness against her back. He kissed her neck, while still running his hand up over her breasts, while the other hand stayed between her legs. Nick, this was supposed to save time you now, he whispered into her ear, I know but you're just too damn sexy to concentrate. He slipped a finger inside of her and she gasped, she managed to turn around and they were both facing each other now, he lifted her up and pushed her against the wall, she could still feel his hard cock against her so she reached down and started to rub it with her free hand. He stood back a bit and she took this opportunity to position his cock at her entrance and guide it into her. When he was fully in she gasped and said oh my God this feels amazing. He was kissing down her neck and up again, then he started to thrust into her. A few moments later they were both gasping and Amanda shouting I'm cumming Nick. He thrust a few more times and they both climaxed at the same time. Standing in the shower, him still holding her against the wall, her legs wrapped around him and still joined as one, they kissed slowly awaiting their heartrates to come back to normal. He then said, we really need to get going, she said yeah hand me the shower gel. She lathered up her hands and rubbed his chest, his back and bum cheeks, after another long kiss, he slipped out of her and heard a whimper from her mouth. He kissed it and said sorry mi cariño, she said, I know, then lathered her hands again and started to wash his penis and balls. They both stood under the shower to rinse off and she said, right come on we need to get out or well not get to Liv's. Shower turned off and back in the bedroom they were booth drying off and Amanda put one of his T-shirts on as she sat down to dry her hair. He walked over and lifted the hair dryer saying, here let me do it for you.
15 minutes later they were both ready to go. She walked out and he said Wow Te ves hermosa esta noche. She looked at him and he walked over to her saying you look beautiful. She looked at him and said thank you. She kissed him and then they left for Olivias.
Arriving at Olivia's Fin and Barba were already there, Wow Amanda you look lovely. Amanda blushed and said, OK Fin what are you looking, you were talking about Nick being too Happy this morning, you're full of compliments for today and being way too nice. Well only speaking the truth Rollins, and she hugged him saying, I'm just joking, thanks Fin. Olivia appeared again saying Nick's good mood seems to have spread to us all, It's a Christmas Miracle, and they laughed. Amanda went and sat down on the couch while Fin sat on the other end. Next minute Noah came running out of his room and run over to Nick, pulling at his trousers and lifting his arms up. Hey mate, you wanna come up? Noah nodded and Nick lifted him up with a big smile. ¿Cómo está mi hombrecito esta noche? Olivia laughed and said Oh he's being a little terror tonight Uncle Nick. Amanda was watching and her heart melted. Watching Nick with Noah was beautiful, and he was a natural. While lost in her thought she saw Nick looking over to her and smiling. Hey Noah, vamos a ver a tía Amanda, then in English said lets go see auntie Amanda. He walked over to her with the little boy and sat down beside her. They sat with the little boy between them for a few minutes when Barba walked into the room with Fin, they'd been talking in the hallway about a case Barba looked at the sight in front of him thinking, if he didn't know any better, Nick and Amanda were the parents to Noah. They looked so happy and comfortable with him. He walked over to Olivia saying isn't that a nice picture there, and she looked up and said yeah, yeah it is, smiling. She lifted her phone and said you know what, I'm going to take a picture of that. Barba smiled and took the glass of wine Fin handed him. Hey, you two, turn Noah around so I can get your picture with your godson. Nick turned him around and sat him on both their knees. Barba said to Noah mira a mamá para hacerte una foto, and Nick noticed Noah knew what he said. Photo taken They then passed Noah to Fin and Barba and another picture was taken, then Nick took a picture of Noah and Olivia. Amanda got up and said right what do you need help with Liv and Olivia passed Noah back to Nick and went to join Fin and Amanda in the kitchen. He sat down beside Barba and started playing with Noah. Barba spoke again to Noah in Spanish and Nick noticed him doing what Barba had said, Nick then spoke to him in Spanish and he followed it. Barba whispered to Nick Mantendré tu secreto si mantienes la mío (I'll keep your secret if you keep mine) Nick replied a que te refieres con mi secreto? (what do you mean my secret?) to which Barba replied Tu y amanda (you and Amanda) and Nick said how do you know? Barba replied Me Acabo de notar que estás más feliz y más cerca es[ecialmente hoy temprano. (I just noticed that you are happier and closer, especially today) Nick said OK deal. Así que tú y ella, cuánto tiempo (so you and her, how long?) About 2 months replied Barba, ¿Ustedes dos?(you two?) Hace una semana, todavía es temprano (A week, it's early days) Whispering pero realmente me gusta y lo he hecho por un tiempo ( but I really like her, and have done for a while). I know you have said Barba. I didn't with you and Liv said Nick, Barba laughed quietly, it kind of just happened, took us both by surprise but we're happy. Good said Nick, so are we. But going away in the morning is going to be tough. As The girls walked back in Nick said hemos estado juntos todas las noches esta semana (we've been together every night this week) Barba replied, la vigilaremos no te preocupes (we'll keep an eye on her) Olivia and Amanda sat the food on the table and Olivia said to them, don't you dare touch anything yet until we come back out. Nick, panicking said as soon as they walked away "¿ella sabe? – she knows? "Barba said calmly don't panic, she has her suspicions and is hoping she's right. She'll be happy for you both. Nick replied "You sure" he said Fin, Olivia and Amanda walked back in with more food and drinks, and Barba just replied "Positiva, no te preocupes amigo" (Positive, don't worry my friend.)
Olivia walked over to them both and said, I hope you two remember that my son has to understand English better than Spanish. Laughing they both said, of course, but we have to have our man secrets too you know. Fin said, yeah I'll stick to English thanks guys, I still struggle with that sometimes. They all laughed. Amanda said, yeah, I'm going to have to learn some Spanish, I had both Amaro and Barba talking to me in Spanish today…. Actually I hope you were talking to me today and not about me, eyeing the two of them suspiciously. Barba said, no no don't worry Rollins, we were talking to you, it's as well we translated for you. Amanda looked at them again and said, yeah…. I'm gonna have to keep an eye on you two from now on around me.
After opening presents from his uncles and playing with them Noah fell asleep in Nick's arms. Olivia said she would take him but Nick said no it's OK, it's been a long time since I've felt this and God knows if it'll happen again so leave him be, Olivia said are you sure, I feel guilty just leaving him with you, Nick said yeah, think of it as your Christmas gift to me with a grin on his face. Amanda and Fin were playing around with their cameras and Olivia returned to them saying right, you've taken loads of photos of us, but we've very little of you two, so she told them to stand still so she could get their photo. Amanda looked over and seen Nick with a sleeping Noah and her heart skipped a few beats. She got butterflies in her stomach and smiled. He looked so natural with a sleeping child in his arms while talking away to Barba and Fin, she took a few photos then went and joined them. Nick then said, ermm Liv we've a situation here, and Fin gasped, oh man, for a little dude he can fairly drop one. They all laughed and Olivia said Nick bring him into his room and I'll get the changing bag. Nick rose with a still sleeping Noah in his arms and headed to the room. Fin said, woah that was good man, managing that without even waking him. Nick smiled and said well, I've had practice, he looked at Amanda and smiled at her.
When he got in Olivia said, Nick big favour to ask, can you change him as I badly need to go to the bathroom myself. Sure, of course I can, tell you what, get one of the guys out there to bring his pyjamas in and I'll get him changed and put to bed for you if you like. You sure Nick? Yeah, you go out and sit down for more than 5 minutes, you've been up and down all evening. Thanks Nick she patted his shoulder and headed out to the bathroom. 2 minutes later Amanda appeared whispering hey, Olivia said you need these. Yeah, he whispered, thanks babe. She walked over to him and put her hand on his back and rubbed it. You're so good with him Nick, and he's still sleeping. He laughed and said yeah, it's a change, Zara was a torture when changing her diapers. Hey babe can you hand me more of those baby wipes? She done as he asked and within a few seconds he had Noah all cleaned up and new diaper on him and was maneuvering his way around him to put his pyjamas on while trying to keep him sleeping. As he was just about to put him into his crib he started to cry, sshh sshh hombrecito Amanda's heart melted again, she quickly kissed Nick's arm and left Nick to settle him. Less than 5 minutes later Nick was back sitting with the others. He OK Nick? Yeah Liv he's fine. Fin said was that diaper as bad as it smelt mate? Nick laughed and said, well I've had worse to be honest Fin, and Fin said hey Liv, no babysitting duties from me until little guy goes to the bathroom on his own. They all laughed and Liv said so Nick can do baby duties, Amanda what can you do? Amanda said, well I'll do 4+ unless I've help for younger. Barba, what age are you? He replied aw I'm any age, so Fin said, hey he can do the teenage years and I'll take over from 18. Again laughs around and various conversations. Around an hour later Amanda looked at Nick and he winked at her, she then said, hey I'm gonna head off soon if I've an airport run in the morning. Nick said yeah I'll take you home and then hit the hay as I've a long day ahead.
Olivia thanked them both for coming, and thanked Nick for her and Noah's gift, and for sorting Noah earlier. She wished him a safe journey and gave him a hug, and a gift from Noah. She thanked Amanda for coming again and told her to travel safely to and from the airport in the morning. She hugged her also and said I'll see you in the morning. See you all in the morning guys Amanda said, actually no offence Barba but I hope I don't see you tomorrow as I'm wanting a quiet few days thanks. Barba agreed and said, I'll pop in to see you anyway he smiled. Happy Holidays guys said Nick, see you all next week.
