This is my first Revolution fic so be nice.
It was easy for Miles to see that something was wrong with his niece. She had been hardly sleeping during the night for a week. That spark of hope in her eye dimmed just a little as the train Danny was on puffed farther and father away and it broke Miles' heart. He hated to admit it but Charlie was finally beginning to root her way back under his skin to his heart just as she did when she was a baby….. Miles wishes that she could remember there time together when she was little as well as he could then maybe she would understand why he is the way he is with her.
When she was in pre-school he had drove up there in the middle of the night to surprise her on her birthday. All that driving was worth in when he saw her little blonde curls bouncing around as she ran out of her school and saw him propped up on the hood of his car. She screamed, UNCLE MILES! and took of running to him as fast as her little feet would carry her. He scooped her up in his arms and hugged her to his chest. On the way home they listening to the radio and Miles sang like a dork to drawl the peals of laugher for the happy little girl…..Charlie jumped behind Miles and buried her face in the side of his hip as the people yelled SURPRISE! The scared little girl spun around and ran fast out the door away form the people yelling. She ran right out in the street on paid no attention to on-coming traffic.
Mile felt his heart sink as he turned around to see Charlie face to face with a school bus. Charlie hunched over and put her hands over her ears trying to stop the noise of people screaming and he bus driver's horn. Miles never ran so fast in his life. Time slowed as his special forces training kicked in. He launched himself at Charlie knocking her form the side of the road on landing them on his' shoulder and back. He looked down to she the little blonde haired, blue eyed child cocooned to his chest, her little fingers were balled up in the front of his shirt. She had stopped crying and was shaking so hard that Miles could almost hear her teeth rattling. She wouldn't be out of eye shot of Miles for the rest of his visit. Form that moment on Miles knew this little girl had him rapped, but the thing is….. he wouldn't have it any other way.
