The next couple of weeks weren't easy for them. Woody wanted to do everything right. He went to work as usual. He helped Max preparing the house for the two girls. And at night he went to Jordan's apartment to spend time with his daughter. The first nights he slept on the couch but got up every time Angel uttered something. 'Till one night Jordan suggested he stayed with them in the bed. From then on all three of them slept in one bed with Angel in the middle. Even after the two girls moved in with Max their sleeping arrangement stayed the same.

Jordan was a very protective mother. She rarely let her little daughter out of sight. And she didn't care about much more than the baby's wellbeing. Both Woody and Max encouraged her in this. They were totally devoted to the little girl.

But Max at least got some sleep during the nights and could take naps during day too. But Woody didn't. He tried to compensate this by drinking lots of coffee. But that didn't help much of cause. Soon his colleagues told him to take things back a little, maybe take a few days of. But he wouldn't hear of this. Till one day he got a visitor at his office …

Stiles: Det. Hoyt. How you doin'?

Woody: Doc! What can I do for you?

Stiles: I heard you don't sleep well lately.

Woody: I have a newborn baby at home. What do you expect?

Stiles: Surely she has a mother.

Woody: Jordan doesn't get sleep either. And she's not drinking coffee. Says the caffeine can get into her mother's milk. I at least got lots of coffee to stay awake.

Stiles: As long as I know Jordan isn't back to work yet.

Woody: No. And she shouldn't go back as long as possible. She's Angel's mother.

Stiles: So why don't you let her take care of the baby and get some sleep.

Woody: I wake up anyway.

Stiles: Then maybe you should sleep somewhere else where you don't hear her.

Woody: No! I'm gonna be there for my daughter. Always.

Stiles: Oh. I think we're getting to the point here.

Woody: What point?

Stiles: You'll do everything for your little girl?

Woody: Of cause. I'm her father. She's got to have the perfect childhood.

Stiles: The perfect childhood?

Woody: Yeah. She's got both a mother and a father. And both are there for her. And she'll never wake up from a nightmare and nobody is there.

Stiles: Oh, I see. But her father is a detective. And her mother a medical examiner. You both could get called out at night.

Woody: But not both at once. We're not allowed to work together anymore. And at night that might be a good thing. And if need be there's her grandfather, too.

Stiles: So you'll be there for her as much as possible.

Woody: Of cause.

Stiles: What happens if you brake down?

Woody: Why should I?

Stiles: Lack of sleep can do that to you.

Woody: (holds up coffee cup) I got coffee.

Stiles: Or worse, if something goes wrong when you're after a suspect. Lack of sleep and an overdose of caffeine isn't the best condition for quick and correct decisions.

Woody: …

Stiles: How about taking a few days of. Spend half the day with your daughter and sleep the other half. A decent night of sleep can do you wonders.

Woody: … Maybe I do that …
