Law and Order: SVU imagines

Nick Amaro

Your hands shook as you looked down at the positive pregnancy test. You sat on the floor of your bathroom in shock; you and Nick had been married for a year now but you never really talked about kids. You sighed and threw it into the trash where the rest of the tests and the empty boxes where and slowly stood up. You looked at yourself in the mirror and sighed. You had been sick every morning for the past week and it was really starting to take a toll on you. You washed your face and walked out of the bathroom and into the kitchen. It was already 9 and Nick would be home any minute now. You pulled out some leftovers from last night and heated it up in the microwave for him before pouring yourself a glass of water. You were so lost in your thoughts that you didn't hear Nick walk into the apartment or the microwave beeping. "(Y/N)?" He called lightly. You jumped a little and almost dropped your glass. "Jesus Nick, you scared me." You put the glass in the sink and tried to calm down your racing heart. He walked over to the microwave and took out the plate before walking back over to you and placing his hands on your waist. "What's wrong baby?" You sighed and rested your head on his chest. "I've just got a lot on my mind right now." He kissed your forehead and you looked up at him. "Do you want to talk about it?" You bit your lip. "Why don't you eat first?" He gave you a look but decided not to push it. He nodded and grabbed his plate before going to the dinner table. "I'm gonna go change real quick." He said before jogging into the bedroom. You drifted back into your thoughts again, trying to figure out how to tell him. "Baby, what are these?" You looked over and saw nick standing in the doorway in only sweats, but in his hand were the empty boxes of pregnancy tests. "Shit." You whispered. He walked closer to you. "Are you pregnant?" You looked at him and felt your eyes start to water a little. "Yeah. I found out a few hours ago." You closed your eyes and waited for something to happen. "I'm gonna be a father." You opened your eyes and stared at him in shock, not expecting his reaction. "(Y/N), we're gonna be parents!" He quickly dropped the boxes and ran over to you. You stood up and he picked you up before twirling you around. You giggled and when he put you down, you looked up into his eyes and saw pure joy. "You're not mad?" "Why would I be mad? I've wanted to start a family with you for so long and now I'm getting the chance." You laughed and pulled him in for a hug. He pulled back and sank to his knees. "Nick, what are you doing?" He rolled the bottom of your shirt up and planted a small kiss on your stomach. "I don't think you can hear me, but I'm your dad. And this is your mom, and she's the most beautiful and incredible person I've ever met so be good for her, okay?" You felt tears start to roll down your cheeks at the sight. He stood up and pulled you in for a kiss. "I love you so much, (Y/N)." "I love you too, Nick."
