A/N: This one is actually a follow-up to the previous chapter. I'm... iffy on it. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. So let me know what you think.
Disclaimer: Not mine.
The detective is back. And you don't think you've ever been so grateful to have someone back in your home. But for the first time in almost a month your doctor has stopped crying. There are still echoes of fear and pain in her eyes, but they're slowly being dispelled by the joy that having the detective around brings. You can't help but notice the pain the detective is in when she moves, but even more you notice the calmness she brings back to your broken home.
The sun has settled behind the horizon and your doctor and the detective are now curled up in each others arms on the sofa. The fur ball is nestled up at their feet, sleeping quietly. You can't help but enjoy the moment of peace that echoes through the room.
There has been much pain and heartache in your home recently, but the pain that separated you all for so long has begun to heal. Both your doctor and the detective are marred by scars now, physically and emotionally. Taking comfort in each other they begin to heal, you all begin to heal. It is many hours before anyone in the house moves from their position. Together for the first time in a long time your family settles together, taking comfort in the warmth and love that radiates from your doctor and her detective.
