I've got so many chapters for this story typed out and I keep coming up with more ideas, so I thought I'd give you two updates today so I can hopefully catch up a little as I'm like 7 chapters a head on my computer at the moment! I apologise for Flack in this chapter by the way, I think he is pretty OOC, but let me know what you think :)

Flack smiled to himself as he watched Lucy ran across the grass field of Central Park, It was a lovely Saturday morning. Lindsay had asked him a few days ago if he could watch Lucy for a few hours as she had to give evidence in a court case and Danny was out in Las Vegas helping out with a case there. "Lucy, don't run too far" he called. He saw her run over to a tree with low branches; she turned, gave him a cheeky grin then began to climb up. He walked over to the tree and stood at the bottom watching her. Thankful she was still little enough not to get very high. He remembered Danny telling him once how Lindsay used to climb trees back in Montana. "Your just like your Mum Luce, she likes to climb tree's too"

Lucy giggled, then with her legs hooked over the tree branch she held on, leaning back wards "Look Uncle Flackie, I'm a monkey!"

Flack looked horrified "Lucy, don't do that"

"I'm Okay Uncle Flackie" She gave him an upside down grin "Did Daddy like to climb trees?"

Flack had to laugh a little at the image of city boy Danny Messer attempting to climb a tree "No Luce, your Dad isn't really a tree climber, this is definitely something you got from your Mum"

Lucy sat up, swinging her leg over the branch so she was straddling it and held on to it in front of her with her hands "Come sit up here with me"

"I'm okay watching you from here"

"Oh okay" she said "Hey Uncle Flackie, When's my Daddy coming home from Vegas?"

"Not tomorrow, but the next day, He has to help DB and his team with a case"

"Who's BD?" She asked

Flack smiled at her mistake with the initial, he was pleased he hadn't told her DB's actual name; Diebenkorn. "It's DB" he told her emphasising each letter "He is the boss in Vegas, like Mac is your Mum and Dad's boss"

Lucy swung her legs "So he has people who work for him too that are 'vestigators?"

"Yeah he does, I'm pretty sure he has one called Nick and there is a Greg as well I think"

"And they'll become my Daddy's friends?"

"I'm sure they will Luce"

"Okay" she smiled, she then changed the subject "What we gonna do later?"

"Well I was thinking maybe we can get some ice-cream then go back and play the racing game you like on my X-Box?"

"That sounds fun" She smiled, shifting her movement, trying to swing her leg back round so she could climb back down.

Flack smiled watching how easily she managed to do it, she then started to climb down, he watched as she slipped, he ran to grab her but it all happened so quickly, the next thing he knew she was on the floor, holding her arm, crying. "Oh my, Luce, it's okay, it's okay" he picked her up from the floor; he carried her over to the nearby bench, cuddling her. He sat on the bench, settling her on his lap. "Luce, let me look at your arm".

"No, it hurts, it hurts" Lucy was now sobbing.

"I know it does, but just let Uncle Flack have a look please?"

"I want my Daddy"

"We can phone Daddy and Mummy, I just need to make sure your arm is okay"

She carefully let go of her arm, Flack gently rolled her sleeve up, he couldn't see any swelling or bruising on the arm, but he was concerned at how much Lucy was crying, she was a pretty tough kid. If she fell over she would just get back up and wipe herself down. She would only cry a little if there was blood; a plaster and a cuddle would stop that though. He cuddled her against him "It's okay Lucy, you will be okay" he told her.

"It hurts really bad though" She was still sobbing, now clutching her arm again.

He wondered what to do, this wasn't like her at all, he decided it was best to take her to the hospital just to get her arm double checked, he would hate to take her home; then Lindsay having to take her to the hospital later to find out it is broken or something.

He stood up picking Lucy up with him "Come on, let's go get your arm checked out"

He carried her to his car, carefully strapping her in. He then drove them both to Trinity hospital. Lucy was still softly crying when he took her out of the car.

"I really want Mummy" She sniffed.

"I know, I know, let's just get you signed in okay then I'll see if I can get in contact with either Mummy or Daddy"

She nodded, resting her head on his shoulder, he carried her into A+E, once at the desk, they asked him to fill in a form to register Lucy. He carried the form and Lucy over to the waiting area. Beginning to fill it out. He was glad he knew the Messer's well as he was able to answer all the questions. He handed the form back to the lady on the desk, then sat waiting with Lucy cuddled up on his lap. He was a little reluctant to phone her parents yet, not wanting to worry them, especially as Danny was all the way in Vegas and Lindsay was in court, neither one would be able to get to the hospital.

10 minutes later, Lucy was called in by the paediatric nurse.

"Hey Lucy, I'm Ellie, I hear you've had a little bump" The nurse said smiling at Lucy.

Lucy nodded, then snuggled up closer to Flack "hurted my arm"

"You did? May I have a look; you can stay on Daddy's lap while I look"

"That not my Daddy, He is uncle Flackie"

"Oh I'm sorry" She smiled apologetically at Flack. Then lifted Lucy's arm up carefully, looking at it "I think I want to send her for an x-ray" she told Flack "Just to make sure nothing is broken"

Lucy looked up at Flack "What's an x-ray? Will it hurt?" the tears that Flack had got to stop 5 minutes ago, started falling down her cheeks again.

"No it won't sweetheart, it's just like having your photo taken but they can see your bones inside you" Flack told her.

The nurse handed Flack a form, she explained he had to head to the paediatric x-ray department, then hand the form over to them. Flack thanked the nurse and carried Lucy to the x-ray department.

The department wasn't busy so Lucy got seen straight away.

"Right, I need you to come sit on this chair for me" The x-ray tech told Lucy.

Flack placed her on the chair, the tech carefully placed Lucy's bad arm on the table, lining the scanner up above it.

"Right, we are going to go behind the screen, I will press a button, the machine will take your picture then we will be back okay" the tech told her.

"But Uncle Flackie stays with me?" Lucy sniffed

"No Luce, I need to go behind the screen too but you'll be able to see me" Flack replied.

"No Uncle Flackie stay with me" she reached from him with her good arm.

"Lucy, show the doctor how brave you are" Flack said referring to the x-ray tech.

Lucy sighed "Okay"

Quickly Flack and the tech went behind the screen, a few x-rays were taken. Then they returned to her. "You were so brave Lucy, I think you need one of these" the tech smiled pulling out a sticker from his pocket that read 'I've been x-rayed' with a picture of a skeleton.

Soon Lucy and Flack were waiting for the results. "You've been such a brave girl today Luce" Flack told her kissing her on the head. "I think once we get out of here, we can pop to the book shop you like and you can choose a book"

"Really?" she asked him

He smiled at her "Yea really"

Ellie then called Lucy back through to the cubical, once Flack and Lucy were sat down, she smiled at them "It's good news; It's not broken, just badly sprained"

"Oh thank god" Flack said relived.

"I am going to put it in a sling though, Just so Lucy is able to rest it" she said, going over to the cupboard behind her, she pulled out a small sling and placed it on Lucy. "She should only need to keep this on for a few days, and children's pain killers should help with the pain. But any problems just get her parents to bring her back"

Flack again thanked Ellie; he held Lucy's good hand, helping her off the chair. Together they walked out the cubical, to phone her parents then make their way to the bookshop.

a/n: this chapter is very loosely based on an incident that happened with me while I was babysitting a child. The child I was with though did unfortunately manage to break her arm!
