Character Description
Nick Fallon came to town in an effort to better acquaint himself with his Horton relatives. He became fast friends with his second cousin Abby and instantly smitten with the angry and rebellious Chelsea Brady, despite her harsh treatment of him. Nevertheless, he was intrigued and found her wild and dangerous nature exciting and unlike any woman he had ever known before.
Nick soon landed a job at Salem University Hospital as a lab technician and found an antidote which helped saved Kayla Johnson, who was poisoned by a rare biological toxin.
Chelsea initially thought of Nick as nothing more than a loser and a geek, so Nick got rid of his glasses and traded in his nerdy wardrobe for a more updated look. He created an online identity named Lonely Splicer and began instant messaging Chelsea, AKA Angry Angel, in an attempt to get to know her better. Chelsea was oblivious that Nick and Lonely Splicer were actually the same person. Aware that Nick had a crush on her, she used her feminine wiles and took advantage of him, asking him to find out Lonely Splicer’s real name. Nick made up the name Shane Patton and emailed Chelsea a picture of his boss, Dr. Rebert. Chelsea eventually became convinced that Shane Patton was the love of her life.
On New Year’s Day in 2007, Nick came over to Chelsea’s house to meet with her but encountered an intoxicated and distressed Billie instead. Feeling alone, the two ended up making love. Both lived to regret it and swore never to tell Chelsea.
Nick and Chelsea eventually became good friends and even went to Canada together to help Shawn and Belle, who were on the run from Philip Kiriakis. This adventure brought them closer and it seemed as though Chelsea was actually falling for Nick. Their closeness was brought to an abrupt halt when she went to his bedroom to wait for him one day and discovered that he was Shane Patton, AKA. Lonely Splicer, all along and lied to her. Chelsea was heartbroken by his deception and never wanted to see him again. Nick was crushed because by now he was truly in love with Chelsea.
Chelsea soon landed a job at the hospital lab as a lab assistant, unaware that Dr. Rebert was a pervert who targeted young women. Nick saved Chelsea from getting raped by Dr. Rebert and she forgave him. The two teamed up and exposed Dr. Rebert. Nick then began tutoring her in calculus. The two were happy and on the verge of a meaningful relationship when Chelsea finally learned the awful truth that her boyfriend and her mother previously slept together. She was devastated and cut both Nick and Billie out of her life.
Soon afterwards, a pregnant Sami came to Nick and asked him to falsify an amnio report naming Lucas as the father to her baby. Nick reluctantly agreed to give her a blank lab report, but felt guilty. When Chelsea was suspected of setting fire to Bo and Hope’s house, Nick stole her incriminating hairbrush from the lab. Chelsea and Nick rekindled their romance after he decided to stand by her.
Feeling sorry for a pregnant Willow Stark, Nick offered to help her out by giving her money and finding her a place to live. She took advantage of Nick’s good nature and demanded more money, even blackmailing him and threatening to expose his part in swiping the hairbrush from the lab. She then broke into his bedroom and discovered the hairbrush, threatening to turn him in if he didn’t hand over his assets. Nick met her at the beach one night per her demands. A struggle for the hairbrush ensued, and Willow hit her head on the log and died, despite Nick’s attempts to revive her. Chelsea stood by Nick as he was cleared of any wrongdoing in her death.
Nick and Chelsea finally made love for the first time, but the experience was less than thrilling for Chelsea unfortunately. Soon afterwards, Nick was blackmailed by Kate Roberts into producing a fake DNA report stating that EJ is the father of Sami’s twins. Otherwise, she’d report his stolen hairbrush scheme. Feeling tormented, Nick produced a blank lab report stating that EJ was the biological father. He vowed to run a real DNA test on his own.
Nick soon discovered that Lucas was the real father of Sami's twins, and rushed over to the Robertses' apartment to reveal the truth. He found a ticking bouquet of flowers and pushed Sami back into the apartment, saving her life. Unfortunately, he suffered a concussion and temporary amnesia, claiming he didn't remember why he came there in the first place. He rushed off to las Vegas, insisting that he needed to find Chelsea.
