Nick was feeling a hundred times better after his freak out New Years day. He wasn't the type to admit fear and he was very much a control freak. New Years day he'd had no control over himself and as a result felt a healthy dose of unaccustomed fear. As a fighter pilot he felt fear very infrequently. If he did he wouldn't have been able to do his job so feeling it the other day had just tacked on more fear.
But Sabbah had saved him. Josh had healed him physically but it was Sabbah's calm steady presence that had kept him from panicking and freaking out all the more. He was supposed to stay in the infirmary just twenty four hours but Sabbah had erred on the side of caution and made him stay an extra day. Nick hadn't minded since he had nowhere to go and nothing to do. He really did feel fine so he'd offered to help around the infirmary rolling linen bandages and packing tongue depressors and other supplies into clear containers.
Nick looked up from such a job and grinned over at Sabbah who was tapping steadily away at her laptop entering in the charts of the people who'd visited the infirmary for later use. He'd had two whole days to work his charm on her but had it been working? It was hard to tell when she was so unflappable. He couldn't seem to ruffle her feathers and while it was a bit annoying, it was also a challenge. If Sabbah had really wanted him to leave her alone she would've caved long ago just to get him off her back. As it was her mysterious (and gorgeous) eyes and her complete unwillingness to give in to him made him want her all the more.
"So, doc, when I get out of here we're going out to dinner right? As a thank you of course," Nick said into his comm since she couldn't hear him through the glass wall separating the little healer office from the rest of the infirmary where Nick sat.
