Thanks for the feedback guys…this is my first time writing ER fic and my first time ever posting something to – it was all much appreciated :)

Lyrics: Happy Together – The Turtles

Susan watched silently from the doorway as Chuck held Sarah close to him and rocked back and forth in the chair. He started to sing softly, lulling the child into sleep.

Imagine me and you, I do

I think about you day and night, it's only right

To dream about the girl you love and hold her tight

So happy together

Susan smiled at the song as he continued to rock the child in his arms. He looked up and smiled at Susan before continuing.

If I should call you up, invest a dime

And you say you belong to me, and ease my mind

Imagine how the world could be, so very fine

So happy together

Me and you, and you and me

No matter how they tossed the dice, it had to be

The only one for me is you, and you for me

So happy together

Chuck stood, and slowly placed Sarah back into her crib. It was 3:30am, and he was desperate to go back to bed, not that he had to be at work in the morning, but this baby thing was more tiring then he expected.

He walked over to the sofa where Susan was flicking through the channels on the television.

"Thanks for getting her," she sighed tiredly.

"It's why we're both off, so we can help each other." He smiled as he settled at the other end of the sofa. "Why are you up anyway?"

Susan shrugged. "Missed you in bed…" she teased.

Chuck laughed at the obvious lie. Susan had told him many times that he was the most difficult person to sleep with – snores too loud, steals the duvet, taking up too much room. But she had her bad points too. Cold hands, cold feet and when she was stressed she would grind her teeth to no end.

"I can't sleep when I know she's awake." She answered truthfully.

Chuck nodded, he knew. Though sometimes he couldn't drag himself up to sit and wait for Susan, and she understood. They sat in silence watching the near muted TV, before Susan turned to him.

"Where should we go tomorrow?"

"Sarah has her whole life to see Chicago, we don't have to show her all the cool things all at once." He laughed lightly.

Susan looked at him, disappointed.

"But…" he relented. "If you want to show her the world – hang on" he cut himself off. "You just want to show her off to the world!"

Susan blushed as she looked at him. "What can I say? She's adorable and she's mine and I want everyone to see her."

"Same reason I take you out." Chuck tugged at her feet stretched out on the sofa, urging her to sit closer. Susan kicked his hands away, but soon relented and curled up next to him. They sat in silence, enjoying the quiet they so rarely got anymore and as Chuck sensed Susan drifting off to sleep he nudged her lightly and helped her into the bedroom.

Her cold feet were nestled against his legs, but he didn't mind as he was taking up most of her side of the bed anyway. He gently kissed the back of her neck, and she curled closer to him. He looked at the clock, it's red numbers showing the ungodly time of 4:15am, if they were lucky they'd get in a good hour and a half sleep before Sarah demanded their attention again – not that they really minded.
