Chapter 3
The Visit
That afternoon Patrick leaves the cabin and head down the lane and onto the highway. He takes the slip road onto the freeway and then drives to the airport.
After 2 hours he arrives at the Austin- Bergstrom Airport Terminal and goes and parks up and then walks into the terminal he then looks up at the big arrivals board to see when the flight was coming in from Ireland.
He walks over to the arrivals area and sits down at a table in a small eatery near the arrivals door and waits for the plane to land. He ordered himself a tea and a blueberry muffin, his favourite he thought to himself, then pulled out his phone and pressed speed dial and waited for the connection.
"Lisbon"
"Hi Teresa" "I have arrived safely but the plane won't be arriving for another hour so I am just having a tea and a muffin." He said smiling.
"Ok give me a buzz before you leave and I will get some food going for when you arrive" He could hear the smile in her voice.
"Ok will do" and chuckled after he disconnected.
He put his phone back into his vest pocket and sat savouring his tea and nibbling on his muffin.
"Oh what do we have here" said a very familiar voice "I did not think I would be bumping into you, is Teresa about".
"Walter" he said a little surprised "I'm just waiting for the arrival of a cousin from Ireland", "he is coming to visit for a few days to sort out some business." said Patrick, "and Teresa is at home with Lucyanne and Cho and Wiley"
"Oh I am sorry to here that" said Walter "I always like to see Teresa", with a twinkle in his eyes. "I hope she is ok and who is Lucyanne".
"Oh didn't we tell you". "She's is our 1 month old daughter" Patrick chucked.
"Lucyanne Elizabeth Lisbon Jane". "She is so cute and the image of her mother". "Well her green eyes, and my curly blonde hair and my smile and her nose" said Patrick "And of course Teresa's firey temper" he chuckled again.
"And what are you doing here" he asked Walter, "coming or going" Patrick enquired.
"Coming back from a business and pleasure meeting in Paris" said Walter.
Patrick asked a little sceptically "Why a normal flight and not your private jet", looking a bit puzzled.
"Well" said Walter, a bit annoyed "Went out in the jet but we had engine problems so I had to come back first class as I have a meeting here this evening that cannot be avoided".
Flight Number 3074 arriving shortly at gate 226 is the flight from Germany, stopped at Heathrow, Dublin, LAX airports is arriving in 20 minutes.
"I think this the flight I am waiting for" said Patrick "see you around" "Why don't we meet up some time and go out for dinner and catch up" Patrick said
"That would be nice" said Walter I ring you and make an appointment."
"Ok" "talk with you again soon" Patrick got up and shook Walter's hand walked away towards the arrivals door.

Patrick did not know what Paddy looked like but he knew that Paddy knew him, from the profile and pictures of when he was a fake physic.
He stood behind the barrier that was lined down the side of the walkway, and has he was people watching he notice a tall slim man, with silvery blonde straight hair that was cut short walk through the door look around and then came towards him.
"Mr Patrick Jane" said the man "As you can guess I am Paddy".
"Its nice to meet you at last thanks for coming to us", said Patrick. "And welcome to Austin Texas." "It is very hot and can be very windy at times. We do have a cooler season but that is not until the end of the year", said Patrick. Lets go and get your case or cases and then we just have a 2 hour drive to the cabin".

Teresa was sitting up in bed still feeling a little queasy. About 20 minutes before Wiley had knocked on the bedroom door and brought in a cup of tea and some lightly buttered toast ( on Patricks orders) and then went back down stairs taking Lucyanne with him (on Teresa's orders) so she can get showered and dressed before going down stairs. She was still feeling tired.
When Wiley got down stairs he place Lucyanne on the rug in front of the fire.
"How is she" Cho asked" playing with Lucyanne teasing her with a soft toy that made her eyes sparkle.
"Still a bit queasy she said but feeling a little bit better" said Wiley. "She said she will come down shortly so she can feed the baby" Wiley said over his shoulder as he walked into the kitchen to put the dishes into the dish washer and tidy up.
"I wonder who this visitor is that Patrick has gone to collect from the airport" said Cho.
Wiley put his head around the door and said "I think I heard that it is a cousin from Ireland and that he is also called Patrick Jane" said Wiley with a chuckle.
"Well that is going to be a bit awkward" smiled Cho. "Having two Patricks in the house".
"Yeh" said Wiley. "I bet Patrick will have some fun".
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Patrick and Paddy had come out of the terminal and walked towards Patrick's old blue car.
"What a classic" said Paddy. "I had one of them" he said "In my younger days and it was red" "They don't make that model anymore what a shame" he sighed.
"It is one of the things I kept from my physic days I had a quite a number of cars then" said Patrick with a sad sigh. "It was a sad time".
"I read about your first family, that is so sad, but you have your new family now" said Paddy.
Paddy looked at the car and said "Oh I forgot you drive on the other side to us" and laughed as he had gone around to the left side of the car to the passenger side, if he had been at home.
When they were sat in the car and strapped in. Patrick took out his phone from his vest pocket and pressed speed dial and waited to be connected.
"Lisbon"
"Hi Teresa" "We are just about leaving the airport". Said Patrick
"Ok I will get some food ready for when you arrive". Teresa said"
"Ok" said Patrick "Be about 2 hours" and then shut his phone and placed it back into his vest pocket.
Patrick started the car and pulled out of the terminal car park and drove out of the airport and onto the freeway.
"Tell me a bit about you" asked Patrick. "You know a lot about me from my profile and the television shows I did and news stories".
"Well" said Paddy. "I was born in Dublin, I am 33 years old married with a daughter who is six and a wife called Maddie and we have been married 10 years, we met at Collage, she was doing her masters degree in clinical Psychology and law, and I was doing law".
"Well friends of ours, has a daughter called Maddie". Patrick said. "What is your daughter's name"
"Caley" Paddy said.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
They were just coming up to the edge of the city of Austin and Patrick pointed out to some of the landmarks they were passing.
As they drove along Paddy asked Patrick. "Can I ask you something personal, I know it is such a cheek but I am curious", "Did you really get away with 3 murders".
Patrick was silent for a short while, while he thought of how he was going to say it. "Between you and me" Patrick said "Well technically I didn't murder anyone, they were all in self defence".
"Why did you say that"? Paddy asked. "The news said you gunned down an unarmed man in the mall.
"He turned out to be a psychopath", "and when we went to his house, we found a young woman in a basement room chained to the bed, had been tortured and sexually assaulted by both him and his wife for months". "He also had someone remove the gun that he had pointing at me before the mall Police came to arrest me but that was proven false by Teresa team with my help". Said Patrick with a grimace.
"Can we drop the subject now please I would like to try and forget it if you don't mind", said Patrick "It was my past", he said "and now I want to look to my future with Teresa and Lucyanne".
"We are nearly there" said Patrick as he turns off the freeway on the highway that takes them to the cabin.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
As they turn into the private lane that leads up to the cabin Paddy looks out and see rows of trees on each side of the lane. Then as they go down the vista opens out onto a wide open space with a lake to the right that is in front of a large wooden building that had steps going up to a large dark oak door.
The lane bends round and comes out at the front of the house, where to the side of the house, Paddy see a RV in a parking area which had been set up for other RV as there was water and electric points for at least three.
Patrick stops the car in front of the steps and gets out and walks around the car and opens the passenger side so that Paddy could get out.
"Welcome to the Jane's residence" says Patrick just go up the steps and knock on the door and I will bring your cases in from the car.
Paddy walks up the steps towards the door, but stops at the top where he see's three wooden rocking chairs on the porch that's wraps around the front of the house just outside the door to the left, a small table in between the two larger chairs and a small child's chair to the left of one of the chairs.
"I can see you are looking at the chairs", "I had them made specially" said Patrick as he came up the steps from the car with the cases. "They were made by one of my Carnie friends". "They all have carvings done on them", said Patrick "The child's one has a carnival come animal theme".
He stood at the top of the steps put one suit case down, and took out his keys from his jacket pocket and opened the door.
"Teresa, Cho Wiley we are home" said Patrick as they walked into the cabin.
"What a wonderful place you have here" said Paddy "It must have cost a fortune"
"Well when I first bought the land it was just a very run down shack/ cabin, and I and Teresa's brothers Stan and James and a contractor friend from my Physic days built it up" said Patrick. "The front of the house is original including the porch and steps". "The lake was already here and there is 24 acres of land around the property".
"Why the RV area", said Paddy.
"Well when I first bought the land and I started to renovate the house I lived in the RV out there", "and when we were doing the foundations for the extension I asked the contractor to put in foundations for a RV park so that my carnie friends can visit". "There is also a field behind the house that is set up for RV's and caravans all with water and electric and disposal points for 30", said Patrick.
"The driveway and lane goes all around the property and at the back of the house are garages and a barn", said Patrick. "When you have settled in I will give you a grand tour of the house and grounds if you are interested".
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Paddy looked around the room as they entered through the door. It was a large living area with dark brown leather sofas and chairs. To the right of the door was a small table that had a lamp and a bowl where Patrick put his keys. To the left was a door that was slightly ajar and he could see coats hanging up on pegs. Just past the table to the right was a large window that went right around the corner of the house and back to the very large fire place that was in the middle of the wall that ran along the right side of the house. In front of the big window that looked out to the front of the house were two big brown sofas and chairs that looked out on to the lake.
In front of the fire was a very long sofa and each side of this sofa were 2 very big chairs and in front of the sofa was a long dark wooden coffee table that had a glass top. In the fire grate was a log burner and the flames was crackling with a warm glow. Above the fire grate was a large plasma TV with family pictures either side The other side of the fire grate was floor to ceiling shelves full of books DVD's Videos and CD's and also some pictures in silver or wooden frames.
Next to the shelves was a wall full of family photos and then an archway that led into the Kitchen and dining room.
Then to the left of the archway was a corridor that seemed to go to the back of the house. This was under a stair way which Paddy thought led to the bedrooms and bathrooms.
Just to the side of the stairs were 2 large windows with walls in between them. Under the second window from the stairs was a small table with a vase of flowers on it.
Paddy looked at Patrick and said "What a wonderful room and so big I thought it would have been smaller from the outside"
"That's the illusion" said Patrick "I was a showman in my younger days, and this is all my design. I wanted to make it look magical". He said.
Patrick walked toward the sofa in front of the fire and motioned Paddy to sit down.
"Would you like a drink and something to eat it has been a long journey you must be jet lagged", asked Patrick.
"Thanks tea please, milk no sugar, I'm sweet enough thank you" chuckled Paddy.
"Well make yourself at home and I will just go and put the kettle on the stove and then I am going to go and find out where my family and co workers are", said Patrick.
Patrick walked through the archway into the kitchen and picked up the kettle filled it with water and put it on the stove. He went to the cupboard and brought out his blue tea cup and a mug for Paddy. While he was waiting for the water to boil he noticed a writing pad on the table top. He went over to the table and picked up the pad and read the message.
Hi Patrick.
I hope you and Paddy had a good journey. Sorry we are not there to great you both but Abbott rang and needed us all in at the office something has come in that needed our immediate attention. I know that I am still on Maturity leave but Abbott is short staffed and so I said I would help in the office while they went to the crime scene.
Please can you come into the office as soon as possible after you have settled Paddy in, you will need to bring him too. I have Lucyanne with me here. See you soon. Love Teresa. PS. Oh if you both are hungry I have left you some sandwiches in the fridge.
He made the tea and walked back on to the living area and placed the cups on the table that was in front of the sofa.
"Paddy are you hungry if you are Teresa has left us some sandwiches if you would like some I will get them for you".
"No thank you I had something on the plane but maybe later" Paddy smiled"
Paddy looked at the Patricks blue cup and smiled and asked him "Why it is cracked".
"It's a long story" said Patrick, "It got smashed when the CBI was shut down and Teresa had picked up the pieces and had them put back together, and when I came back from South America and we got together as a couple she surprised me with it as a birthday present".
"Oh when we have finished with the drinks it seems that we will be going into the FBI Building" said Patrick. "I have been summoned to help with a case".
"Is that where Teresa and your co workers are?" enquired Paddy.
"Yes" "Teresa left me a message on a pad in the kitchen, said my presence is required ASAP". He said. "So when we have finished our tea we can get going", said Patrick a little apprehensive.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
They arrive at the FBI building and Patrick parked in his space in front of the building.
"You got your own parking space?" asked Paddy.
"Yes it is where I used to park the RV when I first came back from South America I lived in the RV it was one of the things I asked for." said Patrick. "Teresa was number one" he smiles.
They get out and Patrick locks the car and then they walk into the building. Just inside the entrance is the security place where all items are scanned before you can enter. The security guard gives Paddy a visitors pass and then they walk towards the lift that takes them up to the bull pen.
As the door open onto the bull pen Patrick sees Wiley sat at his desk.
"Wiley where is Lisbon I don't see her at her desk" said Patrick "everything is ok" he asked looking a little worried.
"Hi Jane" "Yeh she's ok in Abbotts office and Lucyanne is with her" said Wiley.
"Oh Wiley this is my cousin Paddy from Ireland he is staying with us for a few days" "Wiley Patrick, Patrick Wiley"
"Hello" said Paddy taking Wiley's hand and shaking it "call me Paddy it much easier that way with having two Patrick Jane's together", he chuckled.
They all laughed.
"Paddy takes a seat at Lisbon's desk" Patrick indicates the desk just behind Wiley to the right "and I will go and find Teresa and my little girl" said Patrick.
Paddy sat down and looks around the bull pen and smiles, all he can see is glass, desks and chairs, and computers all dotted round a big room that was completely surrounded with glass.
"Bit daunting isn't it" "Always gets me every time I come in, in the morning," said Wiley "Would you like a drink, tea of coffee".
"Tea please" said Paddy "milk no sugar thanks".
Wiley got up and walks to the break room to make the tea and get himself a coffee.
While Wiley is away Paddy looks around the bull pen. He looks behind him to look out the window and see a dark brown sofa pushed up to the wall under the big window. It has a cabinet at the side and on top was a tea cup and saucer. I wonder who sits there then, he thought to himself.
Just as he was turning around to look in front of him Wiley returned with his tea.
"Who sits on the sofa" asked Paddy "It just looks a bit out of sorts with the room"
"It's Jane's sofa" Wiley smiled "He lies down on it when he is planning on how to get the bad guys" Wiley giggled, and also he can keep an eye on Lisbon.
"Also" says Paddy "Why is every body called by their last name"
"Its how it's always been" says Wiley "it makes it easier out in the field as we present ourselves as Agents then the last name". "Like I am Agent Wiley and Teresa is Agent Lisbon, and Jane is a consultant".
"Lisbon" "I don't understand" "shouldn't she be Agent Jane" asked Paddy.
"Well there are three of them in our team who used to work together in Sacramento at the CBI before it was closed through corruption in its ranks" said Wiley. "That would be Jane, Lisbon and Cho". "There is a couple that makes up the team from there called the Rigby's but they are not with the FBI but come in to consult when they are needed on special cases. Lisbon is Teresa's maiden name but she wants to keep it while she is at work" said Wiley. "Some of the time if it is needed she will say Mrs Lisbon-Jane" smiles Wiley.
At that moment Patrick and Teresa come around the corner. Patrick is holding there daughter while Teresa has a load of files in her arms.
"Paddy please let me introduce my lovely wife Teresa and my daughter Lucyanne" says Patrick.
Paddy got up and walks over to Teresa and holds out his hand but instead Teresa pulls him in for a hug.
"Welcome to the family" Teresa smiles "We will be going back home soon" "I've just got some last minute computer work to do then we can go and get us some dinner". "You must be tired after that long flight this morning".
"No I came first class so I was able to have a comfortable sleep" smiled Paddy "I will suffer a bit tomorrow when jet lag kicks in" he grimaced. "But when we get home I would like to give my wife and daughter a ring if that ok with you, well Skype anyway".
"That's ok you can use the office it is on the ground floor near the kitchen" says Teresa. It's the room where you will be sleeping as it is also the guest room", she said.
"Thanks I will do that".
While Teresa and Paddy were talking Patrick had walked to his sofa and sat down with Lucyanne on his lap. He was playing and tickling with her and she was giggling. She then gave a big yawn so Patrick laid down and put Lucyanne on his chest making small circles on her back with his fingers. Soon she and Patrick was sound asleep.
Not long after Teresa had finished her computer work and switched off her computer. Paddy had been sitting next to her asking questions about her job as an agent with the FBI.
She got up from her desk and turned around to tell Patrick she was ready and there she saw them laid on the sofa fast asleep. She went over to the sofa and softly shook Patricks arm so he would wake up slowly so that he did not disturb Lucyanne.
"Patrick, Patrick wake up" "I have finished now" she whispered "Its time to go and get some dinner and then go home". "Its getting late and Lucyanne will need a feed soon".
Patrick woke up and yawned and said "I must have needed that" he smiled, and slowly manoeuvred himself so that he could sit up with out waking the baby. "What time is it"
"7:30" said Wiley who was also getting ready to go home. Wiley got up from his chair after switching his computer off and then picked up his back pack and said good night and walked up to the elevator and pushed the button. When the lift arrived he walked in.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
They all walked out of the lift into the reception area and Teresa asked Paddy for his visitors badge and then walked over to the reception desk and signed then all out.
They walked towards Teresa SUV and Patrick holding the baby's car seat places her in the car and then strapped her in safely.
"Paddy you go with Teresa and I will follow in my car as I will need it tomorrow so I can take you to meet the carnie side of the family", "Teresa has an appointment with the midwife in the morning so she will need her car for that". "We will meet at the steak house" said Patrick.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
As they were ushered to a table near the back of the restaurant Patrick noticed that Teresa was still looking pale.
"Are you ok Teresa" "You look really pale" said Patrick, while giving her a concerned look.
"No not exactly" "I'm still feeling a little nauseous" said Teresa "I think when we get home I will go to bed after I have had a relaxing bath".
"Ok" said Patrick still looking concerned "I wonder what has upset you".
"More like I have eaten or drank something that has not agreed with me" she smiled weekly.
Patrick turned to Paddy, who was looking at the menu while listening to their conversation.
"Paddy I know we have just sat down but would you mind if we took it to go as Teresa not feeling too good".
"No that's ok" "I'm feeling a bit tired myself it has been a long day and I think jet lag is just starting to kick in" he said with a stifled yawn.
Just as they decide to do this the waitress comes up and asks are they ready to order and Patrick apologises and says can we order to go which the waitress says "Yes sir that is ok". They make their order and sit at the table until it arrives in containers.
They all walk out of the restaurant and go to their cars. They then make their way back to the cabin to settle in for the night.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Start of MMM
The next morning Teresa woke up spooning in Patricks arms. She tried to move so that she would not wake him but he just turned his head towards her and kissed the top of her head.
"Good morning Mrs Jane" he said with a sleepy yawn "I still like how that sounds" he chuckled as he run his finger down Lisbon's arm and run circles around her elbow.
"Good Morning to you too" she said, as she turned in his arms and planted a kiss on his lips, which he returned but deeper. "What have you got planed today then" she asked.
"Well first I thought I would make my wife happy" He said with a chuckle. "Then I think I will then…. Well I have not thought anything else yet" with a sexy smirk.
Teresa smiled and then moved further up the bed so she could give him a much better kiss and put her had up into his curls and the base of his neck. He gave a soft growl and moved his hand slowly down her arm and across lifting the hem of her shirt and slowly worked his hand up toward her chest and cupped her breast while he kissed her thoroughly. He then moved his mouth and worked with little kisses down the side of her neck to nip the sensitive spot just below her ear lobe, he then lifts off her shirt and she give's a gasp and shiver, Patrick smiles and then moves down to the base of her neck and across her shoulder giving little nips then kissing. He then kisses his way down to capture her breast and nip then suck then run his tongue around then nip again. He then moved across and kissed between her breasts then with kisses captures the other breast and gives the same treatment as the first one, whilst cupping and pinching the other with his hand that causes her to gasp with ecstasy. He moved down to her stomach planting kisses as he went, as he made his way down to her core and with his hand he moved aside her panties and slowly put 2 finger inside while with his thumb he rubbed circles around her clit. He could feel the walls tightening around his fingers as she arched up and started to pant as she came. He then took down her panties and through them across the room and then got down between her legs and kissed his way up the inside of her thigh and then took her swollen bulb into his mouth and sucked and nipped them kissed then with his fingers he opens her folds and then sticks his tongue and fucks her in and out tasting all her juices and also put in two fingers and works them while he is licking. He then works back up to give her a kiss so she can taste herself on his lips which she savours. He then places his length at her core then penetrates her right up to the hilt and slowly makes love to his wife.
End of MMMM

They had fallen asleep in each other arms and Patrick was woken up by a loud cry coming through the baby monitor. Patrick stretches and turns and kisses Theresa on her mouth so to wake here up as he knew their daughter will be hungry.
"Theresa wake up love Lucyanne is hungry I will just get her for you so you can give her a feed".
She yawns and slowly sits up against the headboard and waits for him to bring her in.
Patrick walks down the corridor and into the nursery where his little girl is whimpering in her bed.
"How is my little princess today" he coo's as he picks her up into his arms and slowly walks back to their bed room. He walks around the bed and places her in her mother's arms. Theresa then moves her to her breast so that Lucyanne can latch on which she does with some force. "Oh you are hungry little one" said Theresa, looking up at Patrick who was standing at the foot of the bed looking down watching them together which was such a turn on.
"I think I go and have a shower and get dressed then go and get some breakfast, as we have a guest and I am sure he will be hungry" said Patrick "What do you fancy" he added. "Pancakes please", said Teresa "with some bacon please and maybe a bit of your eggs" she replied. "Okay" he says as he walks in to bathroom where he turns on the shower and pulls off his pj bottoms and then turns to the wash basin to have a shave and brush his teeth, then gets into the shower. After the shower he steps out then dries himself with a large towel. Then he gets dress in his boxers and then walks back into the bedroom to put on his suit slacks and a blue striped dress shirt. He then sits down on the end of the bed and puts on his socks and shoes then goes up to the dressing table and picks up his comb and tries to put his hair in shape. While he is doing this Theresa is watching from the bed.
"Patrick"? she asks "What have you got planned this morning while I am with the Midwife"?, she looks up at him with a smile as he walks toward the bed to give her a kiss on the lips and a kiss on his daughters head.
"I am going to take Paddy to see Pete and Sam they are at the Showground just outside Austin" he replied.
"Will you be all day? if so I won't plan lunch and just do dinner for you both when you come back" she asked.
"I think it will be all day as he will be meeting a lot of people as you know Sam will want to know everything about him and his family, you know what she is like" He says with a big smile.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
He goes along the corridor and down the stairs and into the living room, turns and walks in the hallway behind the stairs that leads to the guest room that is at the back of the cabin. He knocks on the door and waits for Paddy to answer. "Come in" Paddy says" I am up". Patrick opens the door and sees Paddy sat at Teresa's desk looking at his computer.
"What would you like for breakfast I'm doing pancakes and bacon and eggs if you would like or we have cereal and muesli its up to you" Patrick says as he turns around to exit the door, "or you can come into the kitchen and choose for yourself".
Paddy got up and followed Patrick into the kitchen where he asked for bacon and eggs and some toast. Patrick asked "Would you like some tea I'm just going to put the kettle on for some water".
"Tea please no sugar" said Paddy and sat down at the table near the window to the side of the cabin.
"Was I right that we are going to see your carnie family today" Paddy asked, "are they relatives to us or just carnie people you grew up with".
"Carnie people who I grew up with" said Patrick but there is another group that my brother in law is touring with at the moment and they're his family who owns it". Patrick said with a grim smile.
"We are all related in a way either by blood or marriage or just by association".
Patrick then walked over to the table and placed a plate in front of Paddy with his chosen bacon and egg and some toast on the side, he then went back over to the cabinet and brought over the mug of tea and placed down by the side of the plate.
"Thank you" said Paddy and he delved right into the food".
"You're welcome" said Patrick, "Enjoy it looks like you are hungry" chuckled Patrick.
"How is Teresa doing this morning, she was a bit pale last night". Paddy looked up as he put a mouthful of eggs in his mouth.
"She says she is feeling better she is feeding Lucyanne at the moment and then getting herself and my daughter ready before coming down for breakfast". He replied as he was back at the stove making pancakes and some more bacon and eggs for them both and making sure that the coffee maker was nearly ready for a mug for Teresa. When he finished he brought the plate of pancakes and the two plates of bacon and eggs over to the table and placed them there ready for when Teresa and the baby came down. He sat down at his place at the table and started to eat his breakfast after he had a sip of his tea.

When Lucyanne had finished feeding, Teresa put a cloth on her shoulder and burped her. She then got up and placed her in the bassinette near the bed while she picked up some under ware from the drawer and went into the en-suite bathroom. She turned the shower on and then waited until the water has heated up then slowly got out of her shirt and took off her panties. She then went to the basin and brushed her teeth and then went into the shower. After the shower she got out and got dried and into her under ware then went into the bedroom where she picked up a blouse from the cabinet and then in her closet she took out a pair of black pants and then put them on. By this time Lucyanne started to stir so Teresa picked her up and took her into the nursery and then took her into her bathroom and gave her a bath. When she had done that she then got her dried and wrapped up in a big fluffy towel she took her into the nursery where she got her dressed and a diaper changed.
She slowly made her way down the stairs and into the kitchen where she went up to her husband and give him a kiss as he turned round when she came through the archway. "
"Good morning again" she says to Patrick as she plants a kiss on his lips then hands Lucyanne into his arms. "Good morning to you too" Patrick replies.
She turns to Paddy and says "Good morning Paddy how was your night did you sleep well" she asked him with a smile, while sitting down at her place to start eating her breakfast but before she does that she sips her coffee.
"Good morning to you too" "I had a good night but as you know jet lag is awful the first day afterward" He said with a chuckle. "I'm quite surprise that the bed was so comfortable" He sighed to himself. "I do miss my wife when I go away on long distance" he said. "She would have come with me but work commitments prevented her".
"Well you are always welcome some other time" says Patrick "I look forward to meeting her and your daughter" he smiled then got up with Lucyanne who had fallen asleep in his arms and then walked to her bassinette in the living room and placed her down for a nap.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Patrick what are we going to do today do you want to get down to the information I have brought" asks Paddy.
"I thought we could go to see the carnie side of the family if you would like it will take most of the rest of the day it just that they are in town at the moment just on the out skirts of Austin at the show ground there". Said Patrick, "then we can talk through everything after dinner if you would like" he said.
"That would be great I like going to the fair, that would be what we would call it in Ireland, the animal side would be the circus, I see you call it the carnival here." remarked Paddy.
"Yes that is right and this carnival troop is the one I was brought up with and they have an elephant called Daisy, she is quite a character wait until you see her" said Patrick with a smile that reached his eyes while looking far way in thought.
"Ok what is the best clothes to ware then" he asks as he was still in his pj's as Patrick had not given him time to get dressed when he came into his room before breakfast.
"Just jeans, casual ware what ever makes you comfortable you don't have to ware a suit I know I'm in a suit because I have to go into the office before we set off there because it is on the way, and I have been summoned to give advice" says Patrick as he goes into the living area to check on Lucyanne who had started to whimper.

Patrick picks up his daughter walks back into the kitchen area and sits down next to Teresa while still holding his daughter in his arms. "Are you feeling ok you still look a little pale" he asks while he looks at Teresa with concern
"I'm ok still a little tired but when I go and see the Midwife today I will mention it ok" she replies.
"Ok then and drive carefully ok, there's' idiots out there who drives to fast" he chuckles just hoping that he has made her smile.
"Yeh I know I'm married to one" she smirks as she looks at him and see he looking so sheepish and this just makes her chuckle.
At that moment Paddy walks back into the kitchen and says he is ready so Patrick passes their daughter across to her mother and then plants a kiss on the side of Teresa's mouth and then gets up to go out the door.
"See you later" he calls back as he and Paddy walk out the door towards the car.
