"Hey Jason," greeted Audrey with a wide smile – I'd filled her in on the whole story "come to see the baby?"

"And you guys," he smiled "I'd only heard about the baby awhile ago – my mum wouldn't tell me the big news until after my shift was over." He rolled his eyes fondly. Nathan had kept true to his promise, not mentioning Jason in the report, and Laura was currently sitting in a fire-proof prison for the next twenty five years – as a result, Jason had become part of the family. Nathan smiled and looked back down at Audrey and his daughter, offering his index finger for her to grip in her sleep.

"So," Jason came over round Audrey's other side "let's see who she looks like most." He studied the baby, looking up occasionally at Nathan or Audrey.

"Great," Audrey sighed "we've been arguing about it for hours. We need on outside opinion, and the Chief and Duke were biased. They both said different things." Audrey rolled her eyes "Chief said she looked like me, Duke she said looked suspiciously like him." She laughed louder and Nathan grunted. He still wasn't happy about that.

"No, she definitely looks like Nathan," Jason confirmed decidedly "she has your eyes, Audrey, and your hair, but in her face she's her father's daughter." Nathan grinned at that – he never thought he'd hear those words spoken about him "Thought up any names yet?"

"No we were just deciding when you arrived," Nathan said "we have a no for all flower or colour names."

"Hmmm," Jason thought "what about Jessica? I always thought it was a nice name and it has loads of nicknames."

"Jessica," mused Audrey, then looked up at Nathan hopefully "I like it."

"So do I," he smiled "as long as we can have Catherine as a middle name."

"Jessica Catherine Wuornos." Repeated Audrey "Perfect."

"Do you know whether Jessica has Nathan's idiopathic neuropathy?" asked Jason gently, not wanting to burst the bubble but still wanting to know.

"The Doctor says it's possible," Audrey replied as Nathan didn't seem up for it – it killed him that he could have passed his curse onto his daughter, and she might not be able to find that one person she can feel "but so far we don't know. She's responded to our touches, but it's too early to tell." She lay her hand over her husband's comfortingly and Nathan looked up and smiled tightly at her.

"Well, I should go," Jason stood up "gotta get home, but I'll visit you next week and see how baby Jessica's grown. Hope you don't mind, but Mum's desperate for some photos," he leaned close to Audrey so he could get a better shot at Jessica's face, holding a small camera up and shooting, then going to the end of the bed and taking another photo of the three of them "bye!" he whispered and dashed out the room with a grin. Audrey yawned.

"Here, give me Jessica; you need to sleep, and I need to get to know Jessica better. Rest, you look exhausted."

"Hey, no, I need to get to know her too!" objected Audrey, but then she yawned again and shuffled uncomfortably in the bed.

"Audrey, you gave birth to her. I don't think you can bond with your child any better than that." Audrey smiled and nodded, passing the baby over without a sound, constantly reminding Nathan to 'support the head'. She then lay down, kicking Nathan off the bed and onto the visitor chair, and was snoring in minutes. That left Nathan alone with his Baby. His Daughter.

His Jessica Catherine Wuornos.

Just in case anyone is wondering, the second addition to the family is Jason! Thanks for everyone who's stuck with the story from start to beginning and reviewed, i never get sick of having my ego fed or my writing praised!
