"Sophie, Horatio's coming over so; let's get you ready for bed"
"But I want to stay up and see him"
"You can, but if you're ready for bed…oh don't worry about it"
Sophie followed Calleigh to the bath room were Calleigh undressed the little girl and put her in the shower.
"Calleigh does Horatio like me" Sophie looked up at Calleigh.
"Of cause he does, he adores you"
"Well how come he…um…never shows it"
"I don't know, why don't you ask him?"
"He might yell at" Sophie sounded worried and scared
"No he won't Soph"
Neither Calleigh nor Sophie new that Horatio was watching them from the door.
"How do you know he won't?"
"I've known Horatio for 2 ½ yrs now"
"Why don't you go with him?"
"Sophie he's my boss it wouldn't be right and I don't even know if he likes me"
"What do you mean boss?"
"I work for him! Come on let me dry you and then I'll help you into your P.J's"
"Ok"
Horatio was thinking about Calleigh:
'God she's good with Sophie and I think she might like me"
Calleigh turned around to see Horatio standing at the door
"Hey handsome, I didn't know you were here!"
"Sorry if I scared you, hey Sophie how are you?"
"I'm good, Horatio do you like me" Sophie looked scared.
"Sophie I don't like you, I adore you so much"
"Really?"
"Really"
"Have you had dinner Horatio?"
"Yes thank you Calleigh, I'll meet you two beautiful ladies in the lounge"
"Thanks" was all Calleigh said.
"Sophie could you tell Horatio I'll be in the shower"
"Yes"
Calleigh had dressed Sophie in her 'My Little Pony' P.J's.
"Thanks Sophie and there's ice-cream in the freezer tell Horatio to get you some"
"Fank you" Sophie left Calleigh to have a shower.
After her hot shower Calleigh put her P.J's on and went in search of Sophie and Horatio.
"Hey what you watching?"
Calleigh found Sophie asleep on Horatio's lap
"A movie, she fell asleep just after she finished her ice-cream"
"Here I'll put her to sleep" Calleigh bent down and picked Sophie up.
"Cal she asked me were we ever going to get together"
"She asked me the same question"
Calleigh turned to put Sophie to bed but Horatio grabbed her arm, he then quietly got up and followed her to Sophie's room.
"Your good with her Calleigh, I can't wait to see you with your own Kids" Horatio whispered
"Thanks but that's likely to happen" Calleigh smiled and turned round
"Come on we better leave before she wakes up"
Horatio and Calleigh had each others company now.
"Yelina said she found out who Sophie's real parents are" Calleigh looked up as white as a ghost.
"Did she say who?"
"No she said you know"
"Horatio, I'd love to tell you but…"
"Cal I won't tell anyone!"
"I know but…"
"Please Cal"
"Horatio she's my daughter and you're her father"
"Were you ever going to tell me?"
"Yes I was but just not now"
Horatio went silent
"Horatio you do know that I'm gonna keep her"
"I figured"
"We could start seeing each other"
Horatio looked at her eyes wide open and surprised
'Oh boy Calleigh where did that come from' thought Calleigh
"Sorry, I'll under stand if you don't want to"
"No we can start dating"
"You sure, I mean I was just…"
Before Calleigh could finish her sentence Horatio was kissing her and boy was she liking it.
"You're a surprise Horatio"
"I've been waiting to do that ever since you started to work for me"
"Horatio you're going to have to sleep in my bed"
"At least I'm not going to mind one bit"
