This idea popped into my head last night while I was trying to sleep. This story takes place during Jurassic World and will follow along both movies. There's one small change! Owen and Claire are married and Maisie is their biological daughter. Because she is their daughter in this story I changed her eye color from brown to blue. Enjoy and please review!

Jurassic World

"What time are they coming?" Maisie asked while shoving her cereal spoon in her mouth. She was perched on the stool at the counter, her blue eyes impatiently waiting for my answer. She bounced in her seat with excitement. Her cousins were coming to visit. This will be their first time visiting the park and she spent hours writing out an itinerary for their week. Owen always teases her for only being 8 and just as organized as I am.
I leaned on my elbows resting on the counter in front of her. Taking a sip of my coffee, I sighed. "Not until after lunch."
She didn't try to hide the disappointment on her face. Her bottom lip jutted out and I couldn't stifle my laugh. She looked like her father when she did that.
She huffed and crossed her arms against her chest. "What am I supposed to do until then?" I studied her closely as she heaved herself off the stool to put her empty bowl in the sink. She quickly spun on her heels. Her eyes already pleading with me. "Can I come to work with you?"
I gripped my coffee mug in one hand and reached for her with the other, tucking a stray hair behind her ear. "Not today, Sweatheart. I have a lot to do today."
"Can I go with dad?" There was the lip again. I smiled and poked it with my finger.
"He's got a busy day as well." I answered. My heart sank from the disappointment on her face.
It was Christmas break and she was already tired of being home. Living on Isla Nublar is a dream for most kids, but Maisie was born and raised here. She didn't know anything else. Living among dinosaurs was second nature to her. She loved them just as much as Owen did. Even though she was homeschooled with some of the other kids on the Island, her free time was spent roaming the park with her nanny, or helping me run the control room. It wasn't often Owen let her tag along with him to the raptor paddock, but those days she always looked forward to.
She fiddled lazily with my skirt. "Do I have to stay here all morning with Beth?" She loved her nanny, and Beth was a huge help with mine and Owen's busy schedules. Most kids would be content staying home, sleeping in and watching TV during their free time. Not our girl. Her happy place was helping run the park, or watching Owen work with the raptors.
I sighed and leaned down to kiss the top of her head. "I have a meeting this morning, but I will have Beth bring you by my office for a little while when I'm done," she jumped around the kitchen. I held up my hand to calm her down. "Listen, it will only be for a little while though. I have a meeting with Mr. Masrani. I'll have dad pick you up and you can have lunch in the park. Then Beth will take you to the docks to pick up Zach and Gray." I studied her face and was satisfied at her reaction.
"Thanks Mommy!" She threw her arms around my waist. I took a large sip of my coffee.
"Hey kiddo!" Owen rushed into the kitchen. Of course he was late again. He kissed me quickly before reaching for his coffee mug. Maisie giggled as she watched her father rush around us.
"You're picking me up at mom's office for lunch!" Maisie hopped around the kitchen after him.
He turned towards me, shoving a muffin into his mouth "Am I?" He asked with his mouth full.
I nodded.
Owen turned towards Maisie and clapped his hands together. "Lunch date then!" Maisie jumped with excitement.
The doorbell rang and Maisie ran for the door. "It's Beth!" She called out as she ran through the house towards the door.
I turned to refill my coffee cup and Owen's arms snaked around my waist. I leaned back against him smiling. We've been married for 9 years, but this man still knew how to make me weak in the knees.
His lips were at my ear, his voice sending chills down my spine. "I feel bad for the men at this meeting this morning. No one stands a chance against you in that outfit."
I glanced down at my white dress suite and nude heels. I didn't feel any different than any other day. His hands moved to grip my waist and he turned me until I was facing him. My back pressed against the counter as he leaned into me. His lips brushed against mine. I could taste the muffin on his breath.
"You're…" I was struggling to find words. "You're going to be late."
He pressed his lips to mine quickly and smiled. "I know the boss."
I rolled my eyes and shoved against his chest. "Go, and don't forget to pick up Maisie at noon. Mr. Masrani is coming to look at the new dinosaur."
Owen dropped his hands from my waist, letting them slap against his sides. This was a touchy subject between us. Owen didn't support any new creations from the lab, but he respected that I needed to keep the tourists interests peaked. He knew it was part of my job. "I don't want to hear it." He grumbled and turned away from me.
"I'm sorry," I whispered.
Owen shrugged, his back towards me as he finished his coffee and placed his mug in the sink. "S'not your fault. You're just following orders from the big man." He walked back over to me and kissed me softly. "I'll see you at noon." He said and walked out of the kitchen. I followed him slowly.
"Buy, Daddy!" Maisie jumped up from the couch where her and Beth settled in to read a book. She raced into her fathers open arms and he kissed the top of her head.
Beth stood up and nodded in his direction. "Good morning Mr. Grady." Her long blond hair hung in loose curls around her shoulders. She's been with is since Maisie was born. At that time she was fresh out of college and quickly found a job here on the island in the employee daycare. Maisie took an immediate attachment to her and she quickly became part of our little family. Now she works for us full time.
"Morning, Beth." He smiled over Maisie's head at her. "You ladies have fun." He watched Maisie skip back over to her spot on the couch and waved at Beth before he reached for the door.
"Be careful," I said softly, stepping up behind him.
He reached for my hip with his free hand and pulled me into him. "Always," he whispered against my lips.
Once the door closed I turned my attention to Beth as I reached for my bag. "Maisie is going to have lunch with Owen today. You can bring her by my office…" I glanced down at my watched and groaned. I was late already. "11 sound good?"
"Of course. Good luck, Mrs. Grady." Beth smiled up at me from her spot she reclaimed on the couch.
I nodded, "Thank you."
"Bye, Mama." Maisie hugged my waist and I grabbed her arms, kneeling in front of her.
"I want you to do one page of your workbook before you go anywhere today."
She rolled her blue eyes at me. "It's vacation!" She wined.
I stood up and clapped her on the shoulder. "You'll be ahead of the group." I shrugged, "it's only one page."
Beth was already on it. She crossed the living room and found the book on the bookshelf with all of Maisie's other school books. "Thank you, Beth." I smiled at her before looking back down at Maisie. She was watching Beth through narrowed eyes.
"Hey," I poked her shoulder so she'd look back at me and held up one finger, "one page."
"Oh, fine." She grumbled and dragged her feet towards Beth.
I stood for a moment, watching her take the book from Beth's outstretched hand and walked towards the dining room. Beth smiled back at me and I waved before slipping out the door.
