Authors Note: There is something Allan said in one episode saying, "well this is where a daughter would have come in handy" so I worked off this quote and my common story topics. I've never written a NUMB3RS fic before so don't flame me to a fiery death, if I get something wrong, lemme no politely cuz flames suck ass.
Disclaimer: I don't own NUMB3RS, just Ashlynn and Danny Epps.

Chapter 1- Missed You Sis
Charlie and Alan were sitting at the table eating breakfast around eight in the morning when Don had called.
"Hey bro, you think you can come down here later today? We need you help with a case," Don's voice came through the ear piece. Charlie shook his head and laughed.
"Yeah Don, I don't have class today so I'll come down after breakfast, okay?" Don agreed and hung up.
"I begin to think your brother relies on you too much," Alan said to his son, scooping another spoonful of Cheerios into his mouth. Their breakfast was interrupted a second time by a knock at the door. "I'll get it, you finish up and get to Don," Alan said, rising from his seat and heading to the door way.
Charlie forked another bite of Eggo waffle into his mouth and before he knew it, he was on the floor.
"UNCLE CHARLIE!" a small voice screamed on top of him. Charlie opened his eyes and looked into the deep blue eyes of a very excited six year old.
"Hey Danny," Charlie grunted, sitting up and placing his nephew on his lap. "Where's your mom?" Just then, Alan walked back in with a young woman by his side.
"Hey big brother!" she squealed. Charlie stood up and picked up Danny with tremendous effort (Danny was a lot smaller when Charlie last saw him.)
"Ashlynn," Charlie smiled and pulled his little sister into a big hug. "How are you? Welcome back!"
"We're good and it's good to be back," Ash smiled sweetly.
"How's Stanford?" Alan asked.
"Great! Really great. You know what's even greater though?" Ashlynn asked her father.
"What?"
"That CalSci opened a new major…" the Epps sister glanced at the mathematician with a wide grin.
"You're not…" Charlie stated.
"I am!" She smiled.
"Would anyone like to tell me what's going on?" Alan asked.
"Mommy's gunna go to school with Uncle Charlie!" Danny jumped up and down. Alan looked at his daughter with a raised eyebrow.
"CalSci started Psychology courses, so I decided to move back home," Ashlynn smiled and the Epps men all jumped for joy.
"Cummon Ash, we gotta tell Don!" Charlie said already running out the door. Ash stayed put as the door slammed shut and she looked over to her father.
"I missed you guys," she smiled and hugged him, glancing at the door when it slammed again.
"Uncle Charlie, you're in your PJ'S!" Danny laughed and Charlie ran upstairs to get changed.
"Oh we missed you too, dear," Alan said, barely even noticing the forgetfulness of his son. "We missed you too."
Author's Note: Okay, lemme just say now, writing the parent/child relationship is kinda hard for me since my parents died when I was 2, so don't really get to mad if Alan doesn't seem as close to his kids as he seems in the show, just how I write…
