SPEED'S APARTMENT
9: PM
Jasmine was just putting the last dish away when Speed came in. "Polly and you get all your school done today?" He asked.
"Yeah. Said I should work on my English paper. But other than that said my online classes should be fine." Jasmine said.
"That's good." Speed said. Jasmine was Speed's daughter and best friend.
"So any good cases?" Jasmine asked sitting down at the table and plugging her laptop in.
"Nothing to write home about." Speed said.
"Ok." Jasmine said signing in to her room and getting into her class. Speed went into the bedroom flopped onto his bed.
2: AM
Speed was sound asleep when he felt the side of the bed Jasmine crawled in on when she was lonely or scared move. He was stunned cause it had been months since she had come got in his bed. "Jas?" He asked sleepily.
"Go back to sleep daddy. I just wanna curl up with you." Jasmine said laying down behind him and putting arm over his side.
"Something bothering you?" Speed asked trying to stay awake knowing his daughter well enough to know she was having problems with something.
"Just thinking." Jasmine said shrugging.
"What's that over qualified brain of yours thinking about?" Speed asked turning onto his back and waited for her to lay her head on his chest.
"Nothing that really is worthy enough to talk about." Jasmine said.
"Must be important if you're losing sleep. And climbing into my bed. Haven't done this in quite awhile." Speed said.
Jasmine was getting up. "If you think I'm too old to do this I'll go back to my room." She said trying to pull away.
Speed caught her arm and pulled her back down. "No Jas I just was saying you haven't done it in quite some time. I'm just wondering what's wrong." Tim said.
Jasmine laid her head back down. "Ever feel like something isn't right?" Jasmine asked.
"Right now." Speed mumbled making her roll her eyes.
"Alright. But did you ever wake up and thought it just seemed weird?" Jasmine asked.
"Sometimes. Why did you have an off day?" Tim asked.
"I just got a feeling something was gonna happen. But it didn't." Jasmine said sighing.
"This the reason that you told Horatio you would think about taking Maddie after school?" Tim asked rubbing her arm.
"Yeah. I don't want her around til whatever happens actually happens cause I would feel horrible if something happened to her or Alex's kids." Jasmine said. Speed leaned over and kissed her head. She took everything so hard. She felt stuff he himself couldn't feel sometimes.
"Try to get some sleep." Tim said feeling her shift a little and try to nod off.

"You see Cassie this morning?" Simon asked.
"No she wasn't in the locker room when I came in. She could be here now tho. I've been on ice since 9." Jasmine said.
"Jasmine do you know this guy?" Calleigh asked holding up of the body they had this morning for Jasmine to see.
Jasmine gasped. "That's Cassie's brother. She's mentioned him. What happened to him?" Jasmine asked.
"He was shot sometime last night. Did Cassie ever mention his name?" Tim asked her.
Jasmine thought for a moment. "Once. And now I can't remember it. I think it's Jake. I don't think they shared the same last name." Jasmine said.
"Alright. Thank you." Calleigh said.
"Sure. I wish knew where Cassie is cause she needs to know." Jasmine said.
"We'll tell her." Horatio said.
"Alright if that's all I wanna get back to the ice before Polly gets here." Jasmine said.
"Sure is. Be careful on your leg please." Tim said.
"Will do daddy." Jasmine said leaning over further and kissing his cheek.
