Hi Psych fans! Its another Lassiet friendship fic with Shules too and I hope you enjoy.
This is a rewrite and I apologize on getting baby name wrong. I was so hoping someone be nice and point it out. I kept rewatching scene since its recorded and I kept hearing Willie Nora. (I laughed when Gus stole the toy back and Shawn is just like dude that's rock bottom you have to give that back)
It's been three months since Lassie Jr. arrived into the world. Shawn now lived with Juliet and Carlton is really starting to miss his partner and even the annoying psychic.
He lies awake one night and Marlowe notices and decides to ask. "What are you thinking about big daddy?" she asks softly. Their infant daughter is asleep in her room and the two are listening to her snore softly on the baby monitor.
"I think our baby needs god parents honey" Carlton says after a minute.
"I am guessing you have them picked out already" she responds.
"If I let you pick a godfather will you let me pick her godmother?" Carlton asks and Marlowe nods.
"I want Juliet to be Lily Nora's godmother, she was my partner for eight years and I hate that I feel like I've lost her forever now that I'm chief" he says quickly.
"I think that is a wonderful idea but you know that psychic boy of yours will pout if he isn't involved"
"No way" Carlton objects and she smirks. "It's my choice big daddy" she replies and he gives a small huff.
"Fine…I suppose Spencer wouldn't be the worst pick" he mutters and she lets out a small laugh.
"Don't be so hard on him Carlton, Shawn is a nice guy and he will be a good godfather" she replies.
"Whatever" he mutters and she kisses his lips before curling up to him and falling asleep.
The next morning the two drive down with their little baby. They get to the department early and find Juliet hadn't arrived yet.
"Perfect, let's go visit Karen first" Carlton says and leads his wife to his old boss's new office.
"Come in" Karen calls out and they enter. "Carlton! What are you doing here?" she asks.
"This is Lily Nora's first road trip Karen and we wanted her to meet my favorite boss" Carlton replies.
Karen quickly races over to them and Marlowe gently places her daughter in the chiefs arms.
"She is so beautiful Carlton congratulations to you both" she says as she admires the child.
"Thank you, can we wait here till Juliet arrives? We want her to be the godmother" Marlowe asks.
"Of course…but you do know Shawn won't take that without a sulk"
"We know and Marlowe decided he's the godfather" Carlton mutters and Karen chuckles.
An hour later she calls her new head detective and psychic into her office.
"We have a new case chief?" Shawn asks and Karen shakes her head. "Not yet Mr. Spencer we just have visitors who wanted to see you both" she counters.
"Oh wow its big Lassie, Marlowe and little tiny baby girl!" Shawn cries when he sees Lassie holding his child.
"Carlton! It's been so long!" Juliet cries at same time. "Too long partner and this is why I came, I want you to meet your goddaughter Lily Nora Juliet Lassiter" he replies.
"Oh my gosh…" Juliet says and tears form in her eyes. "So she's godmother? Who's her godfather?" Shawn cries.
"You are Shawn" Marlowe answers and Shawn cheers. He gently takes his godchild from Carlton who warns him to be careful. "You harm her at all and I will shoot you Shawn!" he hisses.
"Relax Lassie, little tiny baby girl loves me" he says and holds the child tightly and she smiles at him. "See, I made her smile again" he says proudly.
Carlton rolls his eyes. "Look Carlton, I know its Marlowe's choice for me being Godfather but I want you to know I will never let you, your little girl or wife ever be harmed, you guys became a family to me and I protect my family" Shawn said with a very serious expression.
"All right Shawn you're my choice too...you happy now?" Carlton said with a sigh and Shawn chuckles but nods.
"You know you love me Lassie" he teases and Carlton just rolls his eyes again.
Juliet grabs Carlton's arm then and hugs his waist. "Thank you so much Carlton" she whispers and he gives her a hug.
"No thank you Juliet, I told you already you were very important to me and I thought it was time I truly expressed that" he whispers.
"I'm important too right Lassie?" Shawn asks.
"Why not Spencer? I actually do miss you being a pain in my ass" Carlton admits making the psychic chuckle. Shawn puts Lily Nora in Juliet's arms and she coos at the baby.
They were just five strangers at one time eight years ago but they grew into a family and now Lily Nora was apart of that and everyone in the room would make sure she was very loved and cared for.
