just like the day before

We get to the lab and when we walk in everyone stares. I walk to the platform and I swipe my card walking up " is there anything new?" She glares at me and shakes her head " Liam I just got here" I walk off the platform and Cam sighs " Emma, he's trying..." She sighs " I just wanna work alone" I hear her and I go to my office and Aubrey runs in " we have another body." We go to the body and I see a wire and Emma gets there so I stay silent as she works and my phone rings " I need to take this" Emma rolls her eyes " whatever Liam" I take the call " yes Mrs. McGee?" She sighs "Maddie took a pretty bad fall going up the stairs and Amy is taking her to the hospital" My eyes widen " Ummm ok" I hang up " Emma you're almost done?" I ask breathing slowly " yeah, you ok?" I nod and we go back to the lab " I'm gonna drop you off and then go get Maddie... she fell at school and her teacher said she might have broken her arm" She looks at me " and she has a mom for that..." I stop the car " we're only a block away do you wanna walk" She looks at me weirdly and jack nods " I've walked a couple of times he's quite serious" She nods " no I don't wanna walk I'm sorry I didn't know..." I drop her off and I hear jack talking to her "Amy disowned Madison because she wasn't ready for a baby and she doesn't care about Maddie that's why he got pissed" She nods and I race to the hospital " where is Madison Henderson" I breathe slowly " second door on the right" I jog to the door and Maddie is crying while Amy yells at her " get out!" I yell and she walks out pissed and I walk to Maddie "Babygirl you ok?" I tear up kissing her head " yeah daddy I'm ok but where is Emma?" She sniffles " I'll call her ok?" She plays on her tablet while I grab my phone and call her " hey Emma can Maddie come to the office she's getting out and she doesn't wanna be alone." I look at Maddie and she smiles " yeah sure I'll get my coloring pages out and she can color in my office" I smile " ok Emma see you there" I get up hanging up " Maddie let's get ready to go to daddy's work okay" She nods and I pick her up. We go to my office and Maddie runs to Emma " hi Emma" she cheers and Emma takes her to the office and they color for a while. I walk into her office " Emma come here real quick" She comes to me and I sigh " I'm sorry that I was an ass when I stopped the car... She hates Maddie and I just wanna protect her..." She nods " listen I understand fully" She hugs me tearing up " so Maddie is taking a nap so we can work a little" she walks up the stairs. We look at the body " so what did you find?..." She hands me a little bowl " guess what that is?" She says and I look at it " a 22 bullet " she nods " you are pretty smart" I raise an eyebrow and Maddie comes up " daddy do you have any jello?" I nod " in the fridge in my office" She runs to my office and everyone stares " do you guys want some?" They smile and then my phone rings " hey what's up" I nod " yeah I'll be there in a bit" I sigh hanging up " I need to go can someone watch Maddie?" Jack nods " yeah I can kid" I smile walking outside and Emma follows me " Liam where are you going?" I look at her " I gotta go work on a case…" she nods " I'll come with" " Emma it's ok you don't have too I'll have Aubrey…" Emma smiles " I'm still coming we can get Chinese" I laugh and we grab Chinese and go to my house " hey James" I unlock my door and we walk in " you got the files?" He nods and we start eating and looking through the files and I close my eyes and Emma snores on the couch " so is everything ok?' James asks not looking at me " yeah why?" Aubrey sighs " your dad…" I roll my eyes " it's fine James just let it go" I sigh and we look over the files a little more and then I start to fall asleep " I'm gonna head to bed" I walk upstairs taking my shoes off and I hear him leave and I strip laying down. A couple of hours later I wake up to my door opening and I turn on the light " Emma, what's wrong…" I rub my eyes and she lays on the bed with me " I had a really bad nightmare" I nod and I hold her falling asleep. I wake up in the morning to Emma walking upstairs " Liam get up" She says and I get up confused " it's two A.M" She shrugs and I get dressed, traveling downstairs " tell me what's up" someone knocks at the door and I hold my hand up to her and I open the door " Liam Henderson?" I nod. " we just got into town and I am just wondering if you are Carter Adersons's son?"
