(That morning he had left early after a murmured word of affection to a half sleeping Skye and had gone to meet with a few of the men he had worked with in the agency that had remained friends and contacts with him now that he was formally out and a civilian again. He had been trying since the previous year to establish himself as a JAG officer in the local district, but with everything that had been going on in his life he simply hadn't been able to make it happen and he felt that now was as good a time as any to start working on that again. The money he had received from Fy's death and royalties from her music had made him well off, and he wouldn't have to work for the remainder of his life.. but as much as he loved being home with Aiden, Sam and Skye he just knew that he needed the fulfilment of working as well. It was close to one in the afternoon when he pulled the black silverado into the gravel drive in front of the house and for a moment he just sat in the cab and looked at Skye as she painted the porch trim. Something just didn't feel right between them and he couldn't put his finger on in.. though he wasn't the type to analyze things that were working. With a sigh, he looked over at the full grown brindle great dane that was sitting on the seat next to him and smirked before climbing out of the truck and holding the door for the dog, which was his constant companion. With a couple short barks the dog, which he had dubbed Xander, took off after a rabbit in the yard and Niko's attention returned to Skye. He walked up the drive and took the three porch steps in one before walking over to put his arms around her from behind, shifting to bush her hair over her other shoulder so that he could rest his chin on her shoulder without it being in the way.) Have I ever told you that I love you? (He said in a slightly playful tone, his hands splayed over her stomach and his broad chest form against her back. He had always been a very physical person, touching and generally being near to her.. but since they had found out she was pregnant and he had learned what she had gone through during the hostage situation, he had stopped making excuses to touch her and simply did all the time, being generally more affectionate with her than ever before.)
