"Why are we here?" Grissom asked and got out of the car when Sara did.

"Because he invited us." She pressed him up against the car door to kiss him. She made sure to park the car so that the driver's side was facing Nick's house. She used this to her advantage because during the kiss, she reached in his pockets and took his keys. She used her other hand to distract him. He moaned into her mouth then realized where they were.

"Honey, not here. Wait until we get home."

"Ok. Oh, I did agree with something that John said." She led him slowly to the door.

"What's that?"

"He said that when you speak with authority, it's a real turn on. I agree with him." He was forced to put the conversation on hold because Nick had seen them coming and opened the door for them.

"Glad you could make it. Come on in. Everybody is almost here." Gil pulled Sara in by her hand and Nick was about to close the door when he saw the last car pull up. Brass and Sophia carpooled together. Catherine had just given Gil his drink and they looked up to see Brass enter with Sophia and a bag in his hand.

"Oh god; you told them didn't you?" He accused Catherine.

"It wasn't only me." She said in defense. Nick immediately took the tape and cleared his throat to capture the attention of everyone in the room.

"Ladies and gentleman. Today we have for your viewing pleasure an educational tape on how to interrogate a suspect. Please save all critiques and applause until the end. This tape was provided by our very own Sara Sidle and Jim Brass." Everyone gathered around the television and Grissom found himself trapped. He also noticed that Sara was not sitting at his side. The team watched the tape that Sara had made and withheld all criticism as promised, though it was hard. Catherine and Sophia both had tears of laughter streaming down their faces. Grissom looked around and noticed that by the time Sara made her entrance, everybody in the room was wiping their eyes and clutching their stomachs.

When the tape ended, everybody was laughing, including Grissom.

"Nice move from Sara on how to get someone to talk. Dangling the carrot in front of the horse. Effective." Warrick commented.

"Are you sure Sara was dangling the carrot?" Greg teased and everybody laughed even harder.

"I liked Brass' move to block the view of Grissom and John's pleading as a result." Sophia said.

"Sara, way to stick to your guns with the counting. That was awesome. You will make a great mother one day." Catherine told her and Sara nodded in thanks. She glanced at her husband, not sure if he had forgiven her yet. Grissom cleared his throat.

"I am glad that you all had fun at my expense. If I tell you a secret, will the teasing stop as of this moment?" He waited while everyone except Sara nodded their heads. Sara shook her head no and made to leave the room. She was going to have as much fun with this as she could. He grabbed her arm on the way out.

"Will you at least save it for when we are at home alone?" She thought about it and nodded. He kept her in his grasp and began to speak once again.

"Yesterday before shift, Sara and I found out that she is pregnant. Nothing is official yet, but the home pregnancy test confirmed it." He and Sara were completely engulfed in the group hug.

"Stop hugging me." Grissom commanded the group. Only Sara held on and took it a step further by nuzzling into his side. He returned the gesture by holding her.

"Hey everybody. I invited you over for food, so let's eat." Sara's face turned sour again at the mention of food.

"No thanks. Excuse me." She rushed off to the bathroom and Grissom followed her. When she joined everyone again, she sat on the couch with a book and told everyone else to eat. Catherine finished quickly and went to join Sara.

"So truthfully how do you feel?"

"I feel fine. In the morning, I get sick at the mere mention of food, but in the evening I have a ravenous appetite. Last night before shift, I ate two whole omelets." Sara explained.

"Wow. You weren't kidding when you said that you were stuffed. I am happy for you and I plan to spoil this kid rotten." Sara chuckled.

"Thank you. We haven't even seen the doctor yet and I believe you about spoiling him or her." Catherine gave her a hug as everyone else was joining in.

"Hey, I want a turn to hug the mommy of my future niece or nephew and it's my house. I should get to go first." Nick said and pulled her up for his turn. Everyone laughed and Grissom realized just how much of a family they were. He watched as each person in the room took his or her turn to hug Sara. He finally got to her and held her tightly. He wanted to kiss her, but not in front of an audience.

"Yo man, we hugged her, you gotta kiss her." Warrick told him. Grissom grinned and uttered a very un-Grissom sentence as he placed his hand on her would be belly.

"I already did kiss her. How do you think she got pregnant, immaculate conception?" Sara snorted and he earned himself a laugh.

"We're still waiting." Brass said once the laughter died down.

"Fine." Grissom stood up and pulled her around to face him. She saw his serious face and started to smile. Her smile turned into a giggle, which progressed naturally into laughter.

"What's so funny?" She leaned up to whisper in his ear and completely disregarded Greg's question.

"I'm sorry but I saw your bedroom eyes and knowing that we have an audience, it was just funny." Grissom blushed lightly and decided that she was pressed up against him that he would kiss the laughter right off of her face. He was faster this time when he cupped her face and leaned in. Their friends cheered to break them apart because they didn't want to see tongue action.

"So, Sara you never answered us; what was so funny?" Greg tried again.

"Nothing. It's private." Grissom answered for her.

"Is he a good kisser?" Catherine asked.

"Yep." Sara answered proudly.

"Is Sara?" Nick asked the boss.

"Best lips I have ever had the pleasure to kiss." Sara blushed through her smile. After idle chit chat, Nick shooed everyone out of his home so he could get some rest. Grissom was outside reaching in his pocket only to just learn that his car keys were not there. He looked up to tell Sara this only to see her standing there with them dangling from her delicate fingers.

"I didn't want to you run away before we finished teasing you." He snatched them from her grasp and held her door open for her.

Sara talked Gil into going out for dinner that night. She wanted to spy on Nick's blind date with Sophia. She made sure that they sat where they wouldn't be seen. Grissom found out and after being upset with her for interfering in other people's lives, he was just as curious as she was at how this would turn out. Nick was surprised when he saw Sophia walk up to the table. He recovered and remembered his manners. By the time Grissom and Sara had to leave for work, things seemed to be going very well. Sara had called Nick at the end of shift and when Sophia answered, Sara congratulated them and went to her appointment to remove the cast.

Over time, Sara's walking cast had been removed and her doctor had confirmed the pregnancy. She was still bound to the lab because of the baby, but she didn't mind. The only thing that upset her was; except for Catherine, Nick and occasionally Grissom, most people treated her like glass. They wouldn't let her do anything for herself and somebody even yelled at Nick to be 'nicer to Sara in her condition'. Sara had heard this and waited for Nick to stop laughing.

"She doesn't have a condition. She's pregnant, not breakable and if she had heard that she would be really pissed. My sisters all have kids and each one of them lead very active lives. The baby is well protected. You should all know this from growth and development." Nick turned around and found Sara in the hallway.

"How much did you hear?"

"All of it. Thank you." Grissom saw her give him a hug and then the tear that ran down her face.

"Sara, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Just tired of people treating me like I'm going to break. Nick defended me and I told him how much I appreciate it." She was wiping a few stray tears off her face.

"Damn hormones."

"Well, you're in the home stretch right? How much longer?" Nick asked in comfort.

"A few weeks to go. I'm ready to be done. I miss my old body and I miss coffee." She was now eyeing Grissom's cup with want.

"Almost done, honey. Now go back to work. We need to leave on time today because of our appointment." He gave her temple a quick kiss and walked away. Nick walked with her to the lab she was in. He tried to pry information out of her.

"So, have you picked out a name?" She smiled.

"We have."

"Well come on, tell me."

"Nope. Nobody finds out until the baby is here. Thanks for the walk Nick." Nick took the hint and left her to her work. Sara spent nearly all of her time on cold cases these days.
