*Jo's pov*

[A few days later Kelly is out of the hospital November 14th I haven't left Xander alone with Sutton for a while. We're having dinner with our parents he says:]

"I was wondering if I could take Sutton this weekend. I just want to spend some time with her alone."

"I'll think about it."

"Are you ever gonna leave her with me again? I'm her father Caroline."

"I said I'll think about it."[three days later it's Friday I drive over to Xander's apartment I take Sutton out of the car I put her in the stroller along with her diaper bag and all of her toys I go up to his apartment and knock on the door he opens the door and says:]

"Hey. What are you doing here?"

"I want her back on Monday morning. Please guard her with your life. I will be calling to check on her. Don't let me down babe."

"I won't. Do you wanna come in?"

"No I've got plans with my friends. Be good for daddy sweetie. Mommy loves you so much. I packed her favorite toys and her blanket she's also teething so if she's crying and you can't calm her down then there's some gel in there just follow the instructions. Promise me that you'll take care of her.

"Caroline Josephine Halstead would you go already. I've got her. Say bye Mommy."

"Bye baby."[I kiss Sutton's head then Xander we kiss slowly I pull away and leave and go to the district and up to intelligence Antonio asks:]

"What's wrong kid?"

"Nothing."

"If nothing was wrong then you wouldn't be crying. I'm gonna ask again what's wrong?"

"I'm fine Tony. Where are my parents?"

"Interrogating a suspect."

"Excuse me? I'm looking for Jay Halstead. Is he here?"

"He's not available right now can I take a message?"

"I can wait."

"It could be awhile."

"That's okay. We have a lot of catching up to do. He's not gonna believe it."

"What's your name?"

"Calliope. Oh there he is."

"Caroline go in the break room now please."

"Dad. Who is she?"

"Now. And you can get the hell out."

"Don't be like that Jay. Can we talk alone?"

"No now please leave."

"Andrew you've been avoiding her for the past eight years. When are you going to be a man and take care of her?"

"Jay what is she talking about?"

"We need to talk Andrew. This is the hotel I'm staying at, my room number and my cell number. Call me and for God sake you could've introduced me to your wife and kids. Sierra Halstead his baby sister."

"Erin Halstead. It's nice to finally meet you. I've heard great things."

"No you haven't. You did good picking her Andrew she's way out of your league. You're a lucky man. You better call me or I'm gonna start following you."

[Sierra leaves I go into the break room and get a cup of coffee Erin follows me and says:]

"So that's Sierra. How come you never talk about her?"
