I own nothing. Just a little cuteness. Daddy!Danny. Cuteness! I hope. REVIEW!
"Danny," Adam said grinning, "Is that…?"
Nodding my head I smiled at Eric before moving to hand him to the lab tech. Almost instantly Adam was shaking his head with an almost fearful look taking over his face.
I knew that it was difficult for Adam sometimes, his Father being a 'bully' and all, but I wasn't going to let that stop him from being an uncle to Eric. Not after everything he and I had been through.
"I'll show you how to hold him," I said softly.
Adam still looked terrified, but nodded his head anyway. I guess he knew enough about me to know that I wasn't going to give up until I got what I wanted. It was a good thing he knew. I didn't want to fight.
Once I had placed Eric in his arms I fixed it so he wouldn't drop my son before taking a step back. Adam looked so uncomfortable in that moment I couldn't help but smile.
Though it was Eric that got me laughing. The little boy stared up at Adam before cuddling into his chest making sure to get as much drool as he could everywhere that he could.
"I think he likes you," I said trying to stop laughing.
"Really?" Adam asked cocking his head to the side before grinning.
That was exactly what I wanted to see. I was close with Flack and Mac and everyone, but I guess I never really thought of myself being close to Adam. I don't know why, but I didn't like that.
Now I had a reason to actually get to know him and I was going to. It was time for me to bring the lab rat into the family that I had created at the lab. I liked the idea of adding another person.
"Eric Julian Messer," Adam said his voice full of wonder, "Hi. I'm Adam. I work with your Dad. I just wanted you to know that he's a good guy. A really good guy. I'm proud to be able to call him my friend. Oh, you're going to love it. Having him as a Dad."
As I listened to Adam talk I couldn't help but feel happiness fill me. Everyone knew what I was like, but at the end of the day they all railed around me, around my son, and stayed.
I had always known that the lab was my family. There was no doubt in my mind about that now. I should have been able to bring Eric to them before. I shouldn't have been afraid.
"And one day," Adam said grinning happily, "If your Daddy says yes, I'll create a mini-crime scene for you and we'll be Detectives. Just like him. I'll do everything. The whole nine yards for the scene. You're going to have to be a lot older though. What do you say, Eric? Sound fun?"
Laughing softly once more I saw that everything I had been worried about was for nothing. I was never going to be doing this alone and no matter what happened to me Eric was always going to be taken care of.
Yeah, I still wanted him to have a mother, but he had Stella and Lindsey. As for brothers and the crazy uncle, Eric has those too. It really was going to be fun watching him as he grew up.
The end! I hope you have all liked it. Please follow this story for updates on when its sequel will be out. I'll start writing as soon as I' am done with the one I am writing now. Pay attention to this chapter. It does give you clues onto what I am going to happen next with Danny and Eric. Thank you for reading!
