I have received the most lovely/first review and it reduced me to tears. I appreciate everyone who has viewed my story. And to my first follower I am flabbergasted. Also reviews from more experienced fanfiction writer's (which is everyone) than I would be lovely. If you get confused during the story I apologize I sometime have a hard time writing down my thoughts in a way that it makes sense only to me and is gibberish to others. Thx -H

That evening as he got home, he decided to let it all go and just spend some quality time with his family while he didn't have a case to go to. Unfortunatley he had just missed dinner as Ellie scurried upstairs to do some extra-credit homework before Spencer stopped her to ask her how her day was. It turned out her day was very uneventful.

"I passed my test today" she said excitedly.

"Really?" her parents reply in unison completely unsurprised.

"And I got detention"

"What?! How come this didn't come up when we were talking" JJ replied very confused. Ellie wasn't overly popular but she had a good few friends, aside from that and always being at the top of her class and her school, she was a very polite kid who never got into trouble.

"I'm not sure, it should have come up but you didn't ask and specific questions", then proceeded to tell her father about her day. One of the 12th graders in my school told me I wasn't smart enough to do her advanced calculus homework, so I proved her wrong, and well her teacher found out I did it because she got 102%".

JJ and Spencer couldn't help but chuckle at their daughter.

After dinner Ellie was excused to finish her homework. While JJ and Spence proceed to clean up and start the dishes.

"Are you okay"? JJ asked, sliding her arms around her husband's waist, as he flinched with her touch. "Garcia called and said you were a little jumpy today and left very suddenly. Are your headaches back?"

"Huh" Spencer replied confused on what she just said, but just said "Um…yeah" Not wanting to make her worry even more.

At the beginning of JJ's second pregnancy they were both increasingly worried because of her age and the demand of raising a twelve year old and the demand and stress of their job. She has been closely monitored throughout her pregnancy so far, but they both couldn't help but worry.

With Spencer still occasionally worried about his headaches, that had become less frequent, there were a lot of things to worry about. Sometimes it seemed it was all he did.

As the night wore on JJ did her best to look over Ellie's homework and was quickly told to ask her father who was in his office.

"Daddy" she asked as she made it to his office which was on the main level. "Hey, come in" he replied as he quickly put away his paperwork. Spencer and JJ found out when Ellie was two to remember that if they brought case files home, they have to be well out of reach, which they learn the hard way after she stayed up all night screaming after finding one that fell on the floor.

"My teacher said I have to have my homework checked and signed" She said with a little bit of attitude, while Spencer just laughed. "I still don't understand why you or mom has to sign my homework anyway".

"I guess your teachers want to make sure that you did it without cheating, I guess" he answered.

"Oh, my teachers told me today that if I work really hard I might be able to graduate with the seniors" Ellie said while Spencer looked over her perfect math homework while she climbed on his lap.

"Really" he said unsurprised. Spencer and JJ had discussed the possibility of her teachers wanting her to move up a grade. They had tried to keep her in high school as long as they could but they didn't think the y could hold off any longer.

"Do you think you would want to graduate this June? You'll only be 13" he asked hoping that he would hear the answer he wanted.

"I'm not sure. Is my homework correct?" she asked already knowing the answer.

"Yup, here is. Just make sure you don't forget to put the units in the answers and therefore statements on words problems" he told her, correcting minor problems that just sometimes comes down to forgetfulness.

"Thanks dad" she said while gathering her papers and giving him a goodnight kiss on the cheek. "Oh, mom wants to know when you are going to go to bed?" she said halfway out of his office almost forgetting about her mother's message.

"I'm just going to finish this file, and I'll come up to say goodnight after your mom tucks you in" Spencer said.

"Okay" replied Ellie as she left to get ready for bed upstairs.

Once he was finished with his paperwork, he put his files away for the morning, locked his office and proceeded to Ellie's room to tuck her in. Ellie sometimes has a hard time deciding if she wanted her parents to continue to tuck her in because she was a junior in high school, but her parents kept on reminding her that yes, she is a junior, but, she still only twelve. Making his way to his and JJ's bedroom, he overheard JJ and Ellie finishing their story "And even though they lived on different planets they knew it wasn't goodbye, but just see you soon".

"Shall we start a new story tomorrow" asked JJ.

"Okay, can we start Infinite Jest?" Ellie wondered with curiosity.

"Umm…"

"I don't think that's a good idea" Spencer piped in from the hallway. "I brought you some new books" he told her while he handed her The Night Circus.

"Okay" Ellie said as she took the book and put it in the top drawer of her bedside table ready to read it for tomorrow night with whichever parent was available. Ellie loved reading with her father, because they were both naturally fast readers, but, because of the extra strain on JJ, the entire team took extra cases home to make up for JJ's leave of absence. Though Ellie did love spending time with her mother, she missed the nights she spent with her dad.

Spencer and JJ both kissed Ellie goodnight, tucked her in tight and said goodnight, Spencer was alarmed to her Ellie's response.

"Say goodnight to May-Belle too please"

"Who's May-Belle" Spencer asked his daughter, his voice lined with worry.

"She's her new imaginary friend; you would know that I had to set an extra place for her at dinner if you had joined us for dinner" she said with an edge to her voice.

"Not here" as he wanted to try to keep his and his wife's current struggles away from their daughter and her ears.

They said goodnight to May-Belle, turned off the light and shut the door heading down the hall towards their own bedroom.

Review? Please? I just want to know if I should continue.
