"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Natalie asked. He looked disturbed, angry, confused. He thought for a moment, trying to get his words together.
"Well…I'll just be blunt. I think I've found my real family." He said taking a sip of his beer.
"What? Really? Who?" She knew Rex had been looking but always came up with nothing.
"Well see, that's when the 'I think', comes in to play" He looked up at her with confusion written on his face. "I got a note in the mail. Well, I wouldn't really call it a note. Call it information about my family. It says I have a niece." He said handing the picture and information to her. As Natalie was about to swallow her drink, it quickly came back up with the information she had in her hand.
"Oh…my…god." She said in shock.

Annie stretch and untangled herself from Landon. She put the blank back over his shoulders as she made her way to the bathroom.
"Where ya going?" He asked still sleepy. He yanked off the blank and stood beside her.
"Going to pee, if that's ok with you." She said with a smile.
"I don't know after that comment smarty, you're staying with me." He pulled her quickly, tickling her.
"Ah, stop….this isn't fair." She screamed with laughter. She fidgeted in his arms.
"What's the magic word?" He said evilly, still tickling her to death.
"Magic word? How bout if you don't stop, you won't have children, ever" She said still laughing.
"Ok that's good enough for me." He said stopping, but still held her close. "I missed you." Annie got on her tip toes and kissed him.
"I missed you too. Let me go to the bathroom and when I'm done I'll make you some Mac N cheese."
"You're to sick to do that baby. Why don't I make it for you? I make it for Sarah all the time. I'm a pro." He said linking hands with her.
"Ok." She simply said, slowly maneuvering her way to the bathroom. Landon walked out of the library and into the hallway. It looked so long and huge. There were 5 doors to his left, 6 on his right. He decided instead of getting lost, to stay in the hall and look at all the pictures. He realized who ever lived here must have a lot of money. More money then he made at the auto shop in a couple of years. In the middle of the hallway there was a statue. Walking over to it he realized it was made of glass.
"Guess they don't have kids," He said touching the fingers. He put stood there palm-to-palm to the painting. Realizing he pressed to hard on the index finger on the right hand, he felt something crumble in his hands.
"Oh please Oh please Oh please, please don't tell me I broke it." He squinted his eyes shut. He looked into the palm of his hand and noticed that it was true.
"Oh…shit." He yelled, his voice echoing through out the mansion.
"What's wrong?" Annie said behind him. She had changed pajamas and pulled her hair back into a ponytail.
"Huh? Oh, um, I um realized that Sarah left her blanket in the truck." He thought quickly.
"Aw, poor thing, I know she can't live without it. Who's watching Sarah anyways?" She asked. Sarah was Landon's 2 year old sister. There're parent's died almost a year and a year and a half back. Since he wanted her to say with him, the judge granted him custody only if he would change his ways. It took awhile, but he would do anything for Sarah to keep her from going into foster care.
"I got Buck and his girlfriend to watch her." Annie raised her brow.
"Buck? Buck as in your best friend who throws a party like every night Buck?" She folded her arms. She cared for Sarah. She had become a part of Annie and loved her to death.
"That's why I said Buck and his girlfriend. Besides, he knows what will happen if he throws a party while Sarah's there." He played with the glass finger behind his back. "So uh where's the kitchen in this place?" Trying to find the mouth of the statue, he placed the finger inside of it, and made sure it would stay there.
"Come, on" She clicked there hands together and showed him the way to the kitchen.
"So it's to lefts, and then a right?"
"Yes" Annie laughed at him scratching his head.
"Man, this hurts my brain. Good thing Mac N cheese is not this complicated." She laughed harder at him, ruffling his hair.

John paced his office, playing with his stress ball. "What's the point of these things anyways; there just a rubber ball that says it helps with stress. I bet people make a lot of money off of these and they don't even work." John threw the ball to the back of the room. He hated waiting. They had an APB out on Joey, but that wasn't fast enough. He asked Bo if he could have more men outside and inside the mansion, which Bo graciously gave. John's phone rang, bringing him out of his thoughts.
"McBain," He said rubbing his temples.
"John, you need to get down to Rodi's pronto." Natalie said quickly.
"What's wrong? Are you in trouble?" He asked concerned by the sound of her voice.
"No, but it's about Annie."
