Morning After Ch11: O is for Obsessed
Hodges watched Wendy sit nervously in Brass' office she looked scared. Hodges felt guilty for scaring Wendy because he truly did love her deeply. Showing it was his problem, perhaps threatening her and pushing up against a car was not the best approach but the more he thinks about it the more angered he gets. He thinks about their awful bastard child they will have, and the thought of Nick and Wendy being together in the most special and immediate way made him sick to his stomach. But that was he could think about, and to him it justified his actions in a sick twisted way.
Hodges taps the printer making it look like he wasn't watching though he was watching like a hawk. Now he sees Nick hug HIS woman, and kiss HIS woman on a cheek. Hodges could feel that he was losing all sense with reality, but couldn't help himself any.
"good job Nicky I'm glad you're alright" Catherine says hugging him, just then her phone rings a she walls off to answer it. Mandy came running and hugged Wendy, however holding the burden of what she saw the day earlier private not wanting to add stress to Wendy.
"oh my gosh I'm so glad you guys are alright? Ah I could scream with joy" Mandy said looking at them both, she didn't want to look at Nick too much. She was afraid he would catch her grimace at his face. Mandy continues to talk girl talk with Wendy, Nick being the guy he is, looks around. Watching everyone cautious of everyone, and then he sees Hodges watching them. Nick stares back showing Hodges he has been caught Hodges watches Nick and the men just stare at each other. It wasn't a comfortable stare for either man; both men had found a new hatred in each other. Hodges flipped Nick the middle finger and walked over to his work station and continued to work. Nick was going to walk over to Hodges and punch him in the head.
Just them he heard the suspect arguing with Brass. Nick gently pushed Mandy and Wendy behind him. Nick stepped in front of them; Wendy lightly touched his back and looked over his shoulder to see what was going on.
The suspect had broke loose from Brass and charged Nick with his shoulder, Nick tried to block the blow but couldn't. Nick stumbled back, Mandy and Wendy both fell on the ground. Brass grabbed the suspect and was hit by an elbow, Nick took the suspect down. A double leg takedown that only happened because Nick's adrenaline was pumping on full. Nick turned the suspect over holding him down until Brass took the suspect away.
"are you alright?" the worry in Nick's voice masks the slur due to his afflicted jaw. He helps Wendy to her feet and sue hugs him, tightly not wanting him to let go. "I'm right here" he whispers in her ear, hearing her light sobs. Then Mandy joins the hug.
"Me too..." Mandy says tearing up, Nick and Wendy looks at Mandy smiling. "damn you guys are so cute... Then you go ahead and wreck a beautiful moment like that" she said leaving.
…
Later at Wendy's apartment, Wendy had just informed her roommate that she was expecting and she didn't get the response she was expecting.
"I'm not surprised" her roommate, Jenna, informed.
"why would you say that?" Wendy said snuggling close to Nick as Jenna got comfortable in the recliner across from them. Wendy's apartment reminded Nick of college, she always had people and they were always gossiping like he wasn't even there. Rebecca, Wendy's other friend was in the Kitchen looking for a pan to cook with, Nick was never really sure who Wendy's real roommate was, he just assumed it was Jenna because she was always here.
"you must have really been drunk. You guys were going crazy… you did the deed once on the couch, once more on your way to the bedroom… how times to you think they did it in the bedroom, Rebecca?" she shouted, Wendy blushed terribly and Nick chuckled lightly. Rebecca rose up four fingers from behind the counter "that's what I thought too, so overall you guys hit it about six times"
"how about we talk about something besides my sex life?"
"no, because I knew this was going to be special… Rebecca didn't I call this"
"she did"
"What? What do you mean you called it?" Wendy said, Nick laughed at the babbling women.
"The morning after... hello? He didn't escape once he woke up, he gave you a kiss on the cheek, I saw the look in both your eyes, and Wendy has talked about you all the time… the signs were all there, duhh"
Please Review! I see a fight between Nick and Hodges coming up in the very near future! Tell me what you think about it?
