Narrator POV
Atticus was on his way to the court house, with Mr. Taylor
Once they arrive, Atticus walks in
He sees you sitting on the ground, there's a blanket beneath you and you hold a small toy car, a hot wheel
A sippy cup at her side and a pacifier in her mouth, and as sheriff Heck Tate is sitting in front of me and two other people,
Atticus walks over and Mr. Tate looks up at him
He stands up
"Here she is, little miss Y/n, she is very stubborn and wont eat or sleep or even let us change her, if we touch her she cries, i feel bad for the poor girl Atticus" Mr. Tate said
Atticus looked down at the girl, her one little pigtail on the top of her head, making her look mighty cute
She held the hot wheel, playing with the wheels, she was only wearing a shirt a diaper and a pair of socks.....
Atticus bent down in front of the girl looking at her, she seemed bruised
"Hi there miss Y/n, I'm Atticus" He said
Your POV
You were playing with the wheel's on the small hot wheel you were playing with until you saw a man bend down in front of you
"Hi there miss Y/n, i'm Atticus" He said and you got a good look at him
His glasses, his dark hair, his suit,
You watch him,
"Whats your name" He asks but you don't answer
He smiles, you haven't seen many smiles but this man seemed....different
You look away and take out your pacifier, grabbing your sippy cup
Drinking from it,
"What are you drinking" You heard the man say
You look at him, and hold out your sippy cup to him,
He smiles and takes it as he sits down, crossing his legs
"Lets see, is it milk" He says and you shake your head
He looks as the cup then back at you,
"Is it apple juice" He asks and you nod
He smiles and hands it back to you, as you drink a small bit and set it down beside
Atticus cant help but notice, your careful and organised behavior as to hide that fact your scared
You left your pacifier beside you, as you held the car looking and playing with the wheels
"Is that you car Y/n" He says
You nod and hold it out to him
He takes it and smiles
"Its a very nice car" He say,
He puts in on the ground and rolls it to you
You smile, its the first smile he's seen on your face as you grab the car and roll it back to him
He chuckles and rolls it back to you
Mr. Tate walked behind Atticus patting his shoulder as he sat on the ground
"Good job Atticus, you made her smile, shes even playing with you, you must have a thing with children" Mr. Tate said
You babbled and made little sounds, running the car on the ground
That was until Mr. Tate asked Atticus something
"Hey Atticus, do you think you could get her to eat, or sleep, or even change her, please we've been trying all day but she just cries" Mr Tate says and Atticus nods
Atticus looks at you playing with the car,
"You know Y/n, you remind me of my daughter as a little baby" He says and you look up at him
You watch him,
"Y/n dear are you hungry" He asks and you nod
He smiles and gives Mr. Tate a thumbs up
"Well come with me, i'll get you fed" He says standing up
You push your self up to your feet trying to grab all your stuff,
"Oh no, its okay we'll be right back" He says and you drop it all, just hold your car in your hand
Atticus holds out his hand and you look up at him
"Its okay, i won't hurt you" he says and you slowly grab his finger
He smiles and guides you too a table in the court room,
He sets you on the table and he stands in front of you as you sit on the table,
Mr. Tate brings him a plate of food, with applesauce and cut up hot dogs
He sets it on the table in front of you, he takes the spoon putting a bite on it
"Open wide" he says and you open your mouth with a smile
You take the bite, happy to be eating
It went on like that, Atticus feeding you, until you finished
"Is that better miss Y/n" He asked and you nodded,
As he pulled a small handkerchief wiping your face down, and he grabbed you setting you back down on your little blanket,
Mr. Tate handed Atticus a diaper and wipes
You looked at them talking before Atticus looked back at you
He grabbed your little hands guiding you to lay down on your back,
You start to whine, "Hey now, its okay" he said shushing you,
He put the pacifier in your mouth, you looked at him
He changed you,
He grabbed your little hands helping you sit up
You rubbed your eyes, looking at Atticus as you held a tight grip on your car
"Are you tired" Atticus asked,
But you didn't reply but started to whine, dropping the pacifier out your mouth
He slowly picked you up making sure you were comfortable
You whines turned into cries,
He shushed you and put the pacifier back in your mouth, grabbing your blanket and wrapping you up
You rocked back and fourth, making you sleepy
He hummed softly, rocking you
Soon enough you feel fast asleep in his arms~
Atticus POV
I held the small girl, watching her sleep peacefully
"Well done Atticus, i think your ready for the trial tomorrow" Mr Tate said
"I sure hope so" Atticus said
He watched the girl sleep, never wanting to wake her, she seemed so sweet and gentle
It was sad to hear what she had to go through~
