"So how do you like being married so far?" Warrick asked Nick.

"Not bad so far."

"Did Sara ever tell you what she found so funny?"

"She honestly has no idea." Nick replied. "She just started laughing and couldn't stop. But then again we didn't spend a lot of time talking when we got home."

"I'll bet." Warrick responded. "So when do you loose her?"

"To San Francisco?" Nick questioned. "Her flight is just after 8 and my parents' flight is 8.30 so it's only one trip to the airport."

"I suppose that's something. How do you think Sara is going to do coming face to face with her mother after all these years?"

"Honestly I don't know." Nick replied.

"I guess you just give her a hug when she gets back and listen if she wants to talk about it."

"I could or I could leave work at 8am exactly like I discussed with Grissom and catch the 9.30 flight to San Francisco." Nick glanced over at him.

"Does Sara know you're going to San Francisco?"

"No. But we're on the same plane back and have seats next to each other so it would be hard to miss."

"How did you manage that?"

"I booked her tickets for her." Nick replied. "She asked me to do it while she went shopping for a dress with Catherine."

"It was a great dress." Warrick stated.

"She bought two; the other one Mom is taking back to Dallas with her." Nick explained.

"Did she let you see it?"

"No. It's bad luck apparently."

"That's women for you." Warrick stated.

"Don't mention my trip to Sara."

"Okay man."

"So." Nick said as he stood face to face with Sara at the airport.

"So." Sara echoed.

"I guess you're going to have to go so you don't miss you're flight." Nick said.

"I know." Sara didn't make a move. "This is stupid; I'm only going to be gone twenty-four hours."

"It's okay to miss me." Nick told her.

"Doesn't someone have a big ego?"

"I'm going to miss you too."

"This is crazy." Sara said a tear running down her cheek.

"Come here." Nick wrapped his arms around her.

"You'll come and pick me up?" Sara asked.

"I'll be here when you get back." Nick assured her, it was just not the way Sara thought he meant it.

"Good."

"If you need me you can call me I'll keep my cell on."

"I'll call you when I land." Sara told him.

"I know." Nick held her.

A call went out for boarding.

"Just give me a kiss and tell me you love me." Sara told him.

"I love you." He kissed her. "Everything will be okay and I'll see you tomorrow."

"I love you too. Have a good night at work."

"Have a good flight."

Sara glanced back over her shoulder at Nick as she walked towards the gate.

"I love you." He mouthed to her.

"I love you." She mouthed back and then let out a slow breath.

Nick had headed to work after he made sure everyone had taken off as he didn't have anything else to do.

He caught up on some paperwork and refilled his kit.

"Hey man." Warrick said when he walked into the break room. "Sara and your parents get away okay?"

"Yes. Both flights left on time. Sara landed and checked into the hotel."

"That's good."

"She's still a little uncertain about the whole thing."

"And she doesn't know you're going to be there yet?" Warrick asked.

"No."
