Title: Feels Like Home Part 2/?
Fandom: Numb3rs
Pairing/Characters: All main Numb3rs characters including Megan (I'm not ready to admit that she's gone!) plus a few original characters. My muse makes me think that there will be some love in here somewhere. I'm just not sure where yet. I think that he's keeping it a secret!
Summary: When a loved one shows up in LA will Don, his family and his team be able to protect her from the life that she's trying to leave behind?
Rating: I'm not really sure how this whole rating system works, so I'm gonna say given the Warnings that I've provided, you should probably be at least old enough to vote if you want to read this story.
Warnings: Adult Themes. Abusive Relationship. If you are at all sensitive to these things, please don't read.
Spoilers: Everything up to the end of Season 4, I suppose
Disclaimer: I own nothing but a notebook and a pen.
Author's Note: All mistakes are mine, as this story has not been beta'd by anyone other than me. Mostly because it's the first piece of fiction that I've written in about 10 years and I'm really nervous about posting it! So if you are the sort of person who offers comments, I implore you to be honest about what you think! If it's poo, please feel free to tell me! I'm going to put on my thick skin for this!
Stepping back, Alan Eppes closely examined the face of his niece, but it was Charlie who spoke first.
"You look just like our mom," he mumbled.
"When thoughts make noise, Chuck," Don chastised his little brother.
"I'm sorry, but it's still true. Last time we saw her she was what..."
"Thirteen," Grace supplied. Ignoring the fact that Charlie was talking about her as if she wasn't standing there; vaguely remembering that that was simply just the way that her cousin would work through a problem.
"Right thirteen, and now she's what..."
"Twenty-eight"
"Right. So obviously she's changed."
"As have we all," Alan interrupted. "And granted father time may have been kinder to her than some of us; I'm going to go out a limb and guess that she didn't come here at 9:30 on a Friday night to tell us that she's all grown up." Taking Grace by the arm Alan led her into the living room, helping her to sit on the couch, before taking a seat beside her.
Don and Charlie quickly exchanged a look before following and pulling the two over sized arm chairs closer to where Grace and Alan were sitting.
"So, Little One," Alan continued, "What brings you here?"
"I didn't want to cause you any worry, so I thought that I should probably come see you before I officially become a missing person."
A/N: Sorry it's just a short little update. I wanted to get this transitional kind of stuff out of the way. Hopefully in the next few days there will be a longer post.
