Disclaimer: I don't own anything to do with Crossing Jordan.

A/N: I didn't know how to write words to sound like a 2-year-old is saying them. So whenever Anna speaks, she can't really pronounce L's.

Secret Past

Chapter 15 – Jordan's Mistake

Jordan didn't keep her promise and started processing the clothes further. She ran some material inside against Zach's DNA and was shocked with the results. "Nigel," she whispered. He wandered over and was equally shocked at the results.

"Bet, you wish you had have let them arrest him yesterday."

Jordan flipped open her phone and pressed one on her speed dial. "Hey Woody, there's been a change of plans. I was mistaken. Zach Smith didn't kill his parents, Chris did."

Jordan hung up and dialed Framus' number, "Framus, umm, there's been a change of plans. Zach didn't kill his parents. Chris did."

Framus came back to the morgue and Woody came in soon after. They quickly went into trace where they found Jordan. "I ran the DNA inside the clothing against Zach's and when the results came back, not all the points matched and I knew it had to be a relative. Therefore, since Chris is the only other person it could be, I figured it was him."

"We need to bring him in for questioning," Woody said.

"Umm, you are on vacation, I think I can handle this Woody, I'm not going to tell you again, GO HOME WITH EMILY." Framus ordered.

"All right fine." He kissed Jordan goodbye and then told her to call him, if she needed anything.

Woody drove over to Framus' and walked up to the door. He remembered how being here again had effected Jordan. He knocked and Annette came quickly to the door. "Detective Hoyt come in," she said as a smile crept across her face.

"Where's Emily?"

"Right here," she said motioning to a blanket on the floor where Emily was making little noises at a sheep that was dangling above her head. Anna was playing with her dolls, when she saw Woody she got up and ran over to him. "Hi, Uncle Woody."

"Hi Anna, how are you?"

"I want Mommy to come home."

"She'll be home after work. She has to catch all the bad guys," he said with a smile.

"I want her home with me."

"Did you have fun with Emily?"

"Yeah, she can't talk yet."

"She will when she's a little older and then you too can play together."

"I wish I could play with her now."

Emily smiled and cooed at the sound of her fathers soothing voice. "Hi, Emily, how was your day?"

Emily smiled more. "Uncle Woody, she can't speak yet," Anna told him.

"Oh yeah, I forgot," he said smiling. "Do you think she had a good day?"

"She missed her mommy like I missed my mommy."

"That's too bad," Woody said trying not to laugh.

He lifted Emily up from the floor. She cooed again. "Bye Emily," Anna said waving. She hugged Woody goodbye and then helped him to the car. "Bye Uncle Woody."

"Bye Anna, tell your mommy to come visit us soon, okay?"

"Okay." Woody waved to Annette who was standing in the door and then put Emily into the car.

Back at the morgue, Jordan waited for Framus to arrest Chris Smith. She felt exhausted. She wanted to be back home with Emily, she missed being home with her baby. She had given up obsessing and found Garret who told her there was a body waiting for her in trace. She did all the preliminary work and decided to the autopsy when she got back from the precinct. She sent the woman's blood to tox and had some x – rays done. Finally her cell phone rang, "Cavanaugh."

Jordan practically ran to her car and drove to the precinct. She ran quickly to the observation room and Framus entered the room to question Chris seconds after. "Mr. Smith, good to see you again. We found your parent's killer, funny though it wasn't Katie, it was you. You really had us going Mr. Smith. We really believed that you cared about what happened to your parents. How about you tell us the real story."

"There is no 'real story,' I didn't kill my parents."

"We have forensic evidence that said you did."

"I want a lawyer." Framus turned and smiled at Jordan, they had him.
