I don't own Grimm but I do own Matthew and James Burkhardt and Matilda Ehlers.
When Monroe woke up to Rosalee's sobbing, he found her locked in the bathroom but could hear her sobs through the door, Rosalee slowly stands up, using the bathroom counter to help her stand on her shaky legs, she exits the bathroom and starts to sort of flutter around the house. "Rosalee? You alright?" Monroe asks but Rosalee just shrugs, she doesn't explain anything as she runs out the door after slipping her shoes and coat on. Rosalee returns home later that night, a young frightened girl who looks about 7 or 8 is clinging to Rosalee's side, crying. Rosalee sets the multiple bags down by the living room couch and leads the young girl into their guest room. Monroe can hear them talking back and forth quietly "Do you want me to stay in here with you tonight?" Rosalee asked, her voice gentle, it hitches a few times since she hasn't really stopped crying "Yes, please." the girl pleads, her brown eyes welling up with tears "alright, do you have a preference on PJ's, baby?" Rosalee asks but the girl shrugs "The nightgown with the foxes on it, the one that you got me. Please." the girl decides as an afterthought. Rosalee kisses her forehead and leaves the guest bedroom to get the pajamas from the living room.
"Can you tell my why we have a kid in our guest bedroom?" Monroe asks when Rosalee walks into the living room, both of them are on edge. "Uh, she's my goddaughter… her parents died when she was 4 and she lived with her grandparents until last night, she's 7 and a half. Her name is Matilda Sophie Ehlers, I'm the only one who can call her 'Mattie'. She's in our custody now. Her parents were a Fuchsbau and a Blutbad, I knew her dad from high school and college" Rosalee explains, only half lying because Matilda was her biological daughter, Rosalee had slept with Matilda's dad but had signed a contract signing away her rights unless something happened to them and promised that she would be Matilda's godmother and 'aunt'. Rosalee walks back into the guest bedroom to give Matilda her pajamas. "Here you go, baby." Rosalee said, she leaves the room so Matilda can get dressed in privacy and comes back to the bedroom with worn out 2 books, spines broken and covers peeling off, The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn and Love You Forever by Robert Munsch "you remembered!" Matilda says, a small smile on her previously sad face "of course I did." Rosalee grins as she tucks Matilda into the full sized bed, climbing onto the bed next to Matilda, Matilda curling into Rosalee's side again with her stuffed fox named Chester trapped in a death grip in her arms, a stuffed animal Rosalee had given Matilda when she was a day or two old and out of her legal custody. Rosalee rubs her back until Matilda falls asleep and she falls asleep listening to the deep, even breathing of Matilda.
