Jane's P.O.V

I woke up in bed and found two petite girls sound asleep, five in the morning isn't late enough to go to work at seven- thirthy so I settled out and cooked breakfast.

Thirty minutes or so, Lisbon woke up and joinend me.

"Good morning!"

She yawnend. "Morning."

"Hey. You fine today?" I asked her with all the caring in the world pertaining to the foster care Thea will be put to.

She sighed and covered her face with her hands. "I don't know Jane.."

"You're going to be alright, I promise, because I'm going to be there."

And just like that, time passed so fast. Next thing I knew, Lisbon, Thea and I were on the car. The two girls seem so weary today, without a sound, I took the wheel and drove, pullling it off the CBI parking lot. Usual thing applies, pass the guards and take the elevator to our unit, making it sound 'Ding!' and walk.

Lisbon's P.O.V

I march down to my office like the usual things, but today is the day that we are going to wrap up the case and close it. So I went to my team to find the usual scenario, this bought a smile to my face.

"Morning boss." Cho said.

"Good morning guys." I said back.

"Looking happy today eh, boss?" Rigsby teased.

"I am, because Cho and Van Pelt-"

"Morning boss! I'm here."

"Yeah and as I was saying, Cho and Van Pelt were going to make the reports, case solved."

"What exactly happenend boss?"

"Turns out, the mother is cray cray and skipped medications everyday, whereas the father is depressed so just like that, the mother got off that night and killed her family. Including herself, but Thea, she ran away and hid."

"Alright boss, I'm going to finish the reports and we're open again."

"Uh boss?" Rigsby trailed.

"Yes Taco boy?" I asked.

"Remember officer Dayton? Turns out she got closed to him because of their affair, the rumors were true." and his eyes were in sadness.

"And what?"

"He got off a fight downtown and shot him in the head."

"Okay, and if you'll excuse me."

I turn around and go to my office, I grabbed my coat and went tp where Thea was sitting.

"Are you ready?" I asked.

"Yes, pleasure to meet you Agent Lisbon." she said. "Can I say goodbye to your team?" she added.

"Sure, go ahead."

She ran off and I looked at the open blinds, she gave a hug to our team or family, and well even Cho cracked a smile and bid farewell.

"Ready to go Agent?" a voice popped out.

I closed my eyes and breathed out. "Yes Mr. Jane."

I grabbed my keys and went out the building with them and drove to where the address will take us, pulling off to a daycare like thing, we stepped out of the car. I felt a small hand touch mine's and I gently hold back and flashed a smile. We enter and found a group of ladies in there that smiled to us.

"I think you must be Thea Sunny? And you're Agent Lisbon and Patrick Jane? Am I right?" a woman in mid- twenties asked.

"Yes, that's right."

"Great, and you can call me Caitlyn. I'll be taking care of you for awhile." she said to Thea.

"Yeah, just make sure she's safe, she eats well, and she will have fun and if ever she gets adopted, make sure she will be secure, they can feed her and take her to school. That's all I want for her, nothing else." I blinked back tears.

"Don't worry. We'll make sure of it." and I saw Jane give her hug and she ran to me and gave me one, last final hug.

"See you soon." Jane said.

She flashed a smile and Caitlyn took her hand, she turned around and waved. I felt my heart sank but a soft hand brushed my shoulder and fixed me back again.

We got to the car and I started the conversation.

"You know, officer Dayton got shot so, Thea will have another wait for another family."

He looked at me in shock, and turnend the streeing wheel back.

"Jane?! What are you doing?!"

"Getting you a child."
