Morning After Ch19: The Baby Shower


Greg and Nick were unloading the final decorations for the shower. Nick was nervous on how his team would react to the news of Wendy and he engaged. Mandy and Catherine agreed to do the decorating as Wendy rested at home.

"here you are Nicky my boy" Catherine said the room was beautifully decorated. The room was a hall that housed many police functions.

"wow thanks you guys for all your help it means a lot I'm going to send Wendy a picture" he sent her a picture.

"where is she?" Catherine asked, Nick was never a good liar but didn't want to tell them she was hiding. Nick and Wendy wanted to announce at the baby shower.

"home with my sister... She's gotta rest" he said as his phone rang. "hello"

"your sister just made me pee my pants and lactate at the same time" Wendy said fighting her giggles as Laura laughed uncontrollability in the background. Nick laughed too.

"that's funny... I'm going to be there in a few"

"ok see you in a few" she said hanging up laughing hysterically.

Nick opened his door humming a song that was just on the radio. He looked at the counter.

'I'll be right back Wendy fell asleep and pack an extra outfit for her ~ L'

Nick laughed his sister was very blunt in a funny way she was high strong. Nick gently shook Wendy's foot she opened her eyes and sweetly reached for his arm.

"hey there sleepy head" Nick said giving Wendy a kiss on her forehead.

"hey your sister said that she had to go get something and not to leave without her or she will punch you one the stomach" Wendy said smiling; Nick laughed and rubbed her feet. She sat up and stretched kissing his cheek she put her hair in a loose pony tail she had on a gray polo that showed the bottom over her stomach. She kissed him he looked her chest the buttons on her shirt looked like they were going to pop off.

"I like your shirt" he said kissing her neck.

"this is a pre-pregnancy shirt" she said pushing him against the couch. They started kissing.

"alright... Easy you two. Come on lovebirds, we got shit to see and people to do" she said catching the couple.


As the shower continued many people congratulated the couple most of the people there were from the department. Nick was talking with his sister as Wendy rested on a couch she said she didn't feel well.

"so when are you going to tell tour friends your engaged?"

"I don't know, Wendy wanted to announce it but I don't know if she wants too any more... She doesn't feel well"

"I know she says she's tired" she said Nick brought Wendy a water bottle, and sat next to her. Wendy was gently rubbing her stomach and releasing a deep breath.

"how do you feel?"

"I'm fine" she said Nick kissed her stomach and rubbed her belly. "She's kicking a lot"

"She's?"

"I think it's a girl"

"oh yea?" he kissed her cheek but then became concerned; he felt her forehead she was warm, warmer than usual. "are you sure you feel alright?

"yes... Let's announce it" she whispered, Nick smiled they stood up.

"Excuse me!" Nick announces everyone quieted down "I want to thank you all for coming, and I want to let you all know that..."

"we are getting married!" Wendy shouted in excitement she wrapped he arm around him hugging him, but more so trying to hold herself up. Everyone clapped "I gotta sit down" she whispered. Nick rubbed her back as she rubbed her stomach.

"is it a boy or a girl?" someone asked Nick looked up to see Grissom.

"Grissom..." Nick said shocked.

"how are you Nicky?" Nick stood up and shook Grissom's hand.

"I'm good, how are you?"

"good, how is everything at the lab?"

"good what are you doing here?"

"are you kidding? I had to come to your child's baby shower Sara didn't even tell me you were seeing anyone" Grissom chuckled. Wendy tugged on Nick's pant leg.

"enjoy yourself... I'm meet up with you later" Nick shook Grissom's hand, he sat next to her rubbing her lower back Wendy was surprised how much the baby was moving. "do you want to go to the doctor?"

"I'm fine"

"alright everyone gather around, present time!" Catherine said

Wendy opened the gifts and read cards Nick tried to comfort an uncomfortable Wendy as she sat on his lap. Greg gave them two baby outfits one for a baby boy the other for a girl. The others did the same thing which made Nick and Wendy left laugh as others gave away mostly toys or gift cards.

"I told you guys if you would let us know if the baby was a boy or a girl our gift selection would be better" Catherine said, as her give was a baby jumper that said Daddy's little Girl and the other said Mommy's little wrecking ball.

After all the gifts had been exchanged, Wendy relaxes in the chair; she was convinced she was coming down with something. Nick loaded all the gifts in his truck.

"Good luck to you Nicky" Grissom said shaking Nick's hand.

"Thanks for coming Griss"

"From ladies man to family man" Grissom said chuckling as did Nick.

"I know"

"Sometimes you just have to wait for the right scientist" Nick laughed, as Sara wrapped her arms around Grissom.

"Nicky!" Catherine said worried, Nick ran inside.

"What?" Nick said Wendy was crying on the couch. "Wendy what's wrong?"

"Something's wrong with the baby" she cried rubbing her belly more aggressively. Her face was pale; Wendy felt a release and Nick's eyes went wide. "I think my water broke" she said as she felt a cramp.

"It's too early" he cried scooping his fiancée's wimp body.

"I'll get your truck" Lauren said.

"I hope the baby is ok" Wendy cried as Nick tried reassuring her.

"It will"
