He was getting really excited at the fact that he was adapting and changing the course, knowing that this was exactly what he wanted instead of being here in this house that was empty all the time. He walked over and put Henry in the highchair and gave him a couple of snags and his cup that he had already filled with juice.
Dana was getting dressed in the loft, and the two were asking questions about Deanna. Max, it easily replied that she would be down in a minute. When Deanna showed herself and came down the stairs, she talked to Henry and Max at the same time for a moment.
Next new he actually had to ask if they took a drive out to his mother's house to just double-check and make sure that everything was still good fo

The car ride was quiet on the way to the little town. It was an hour of peace even though Henry was in the back seat most of the time babbling outside till the tree is not passing by. DNR Max talked very little, but when they did, it was usually just trying to reassure each other of basically what they were thinking. Max knew that she still had a lot on her her plate and that she was still processing everything. It was quite difficult for both of them to really consider everything that the other was going on.As they got closer to the house, they began to talk more and more about the actual adoption and that it would probably take quite a long time if it went the traditional route. Max knew that there were a couple of shortcuts within the system that they were probably going to end up taking when it came to Henry's care and permanent placement, but for now, he wasn't going to actually put them into her head as possibilities. He was going to wait un

“who is this?” Marie asked if she looked at Max and took another step closer. She was smiling when she looked at her youngest son holding a toddler in his arms. She was also glancing back and forth to Deanna, noting the resemblance Max thought. The two actually did look alike, and it wouldn't surprise him if somebody in his family actually questioned if Henry was at least her child, let alone possibly theirs, even though they said that he was adopted.“this is Deanna's younger brother Henry. we're taking care of him for a little bit.” Max said with a huge smile. He could even hear the pride in his own voice as he looked at the boy and then looked to his own mother. However, Henry wasn't taking in the sounds or anything else. He saw a woman that was creeping up on him that kind of reminded him of the mean woman who hurt him. He was hugging into deeper on Max. He was trying to get as close to the bigger man as he possibly coul

Still, the hospital wasn't all that far away the right over he had quite a bit of time to contemplate what his mother had actually told him. It had been extremely weird for him that his mother with so open with him and honest. He had never actually experienced that with his family before. He had always thought that Michael was the one that was completely loved, and he was just there. It wasn't until he actually knew all the factors that had taken place that he could actually really truly begin to forgive his parents for the way that he was brought up. He had already made huge leaps and bounds when it came to everything and forgiving his parents when he actually closed the case for Samantha. He knew that he was going to have issues moving forward but now knowing all the reasons why they had acted the way that they had with something that he had never expected to actually know.Things even in his own mind were beginning to change, and he was grateful

After surprising everybody in the room in Henry reaching for the older man and wanting to sit down on the bed with him Deanna in him, we're just taking everything in. Max had really thought that this was going to be like introducing his son to his parents. The funny thing was is that his parents already thought that he had a wife and children that they had never known about, and he at the same time found out as far as he was concerned, he already had that. Deanna was going to be the one that he managed to win over in the one that he wanted to save his life with. And then Henry with the additions that they both needed together. Whether they just had one child or multiple, it really didn't matter to him. As long as Dana was by his side.“I've never actually seen him take to anybody like that before,” Deanna stated as she looked up at Max is face.“I think they might actually need each other.” he smiled as he looked at t

When they got home, Max knew that they had a few more things that they had to do, including getting ready for tomorrow when Deanna went to Winter Haven to visit her cousin. She was going to write out the questions that she was going to ask Samrah and then have him go over them just so he could add some if he needed to. But the minute they started to walk through the door, her phone began to ring. She walked off in another direction, and he had an idea there was somebody in her family, and she really didn't want him to overhear what was going to be said. She had already threaten them, and he was extremely proud of her for doing so.Instead, Max looked at Henry and knew that this was going to be a new adventure for the two of them. And knew that the boy was probably starving even though he'd been peppered with snacks for the past few hours. He went over and got one of the ready-made meals and started to open it and then warm it up a little bit in the

The next morning everything was set, and though they had a fight talking about Winter Haven, and she wasn't exactly speaking to him at the moment, Max knew that this was going to be one of those moments that changed everything in the relationship. He was trying to let go of the way that he was thinking about her being so soft and kind and loving that she couldn't actually handle being in a place like that. Deep down, Max knew that she could handle being in a place like that, but it wasn't something that he was ready to admit.Something in him basically wanted to be the dominant one in the relationship even though he knew that they were on equal footing. He wanted to be the man, and he wanted to be the person who had to do the dangerous things. He didn't want her even remotely put in any type of danger, and he knew that Winterhaven was nothing but a huge danger.Seeing the place for the first time is awe-inducing. At least when you look at it from the outs

When they got back to the house, Dana really didn't wanna talk. Whatever she had seen really add spooked her in a way. There were a lot of things that he could see that were going on in her mind, and Max knew that he had to allow her to have the time to process everything. She really hadn't even wanted to play with Henry, so it was time for Henry to take a nap, and Max put him down. She had disappeared somewhere in the house, and he was going over files in the office.There were quite a few things that he needed to get done because he had basically taken the weekend off, knowing that this was going to be a huge weekend for them.

Max is deep into the piece of paper that he was rewriting for the class when he heard his phone beep next to him varian. He looked down at the phone and saw the notification that he had a text message. It wasn't unusual for him to get messages throughout the day either from consulting counties that he was working with or from one of the commanding officers at the Police Department that he worked for. Usually just asking for some kind of update.this text message was slightly different. This one was asking about Deanna.Your girlfriend's last name is Watson, right? and it had come from from the Lieutenant who had been there the day before to help move everything into the house. Max knew in that one instant something bad was going to be at their front door rather quickly. He was trying to brace himself mentally even right then and there before he answered.Whatever this was, it wasn't going to be good, and he knew that Deanna was not in

He had already rewritten at once and now he was going to make it more specific period he was already looking up case files and everything else that he could possibly do to get everything completely set. Though the paperwork Adam actually come in yet he was betting that it would any day now. He was OK with the fact that it wasn't totally official because he had the men’s word and his own captain's word working for him. He knew that they just had to make it more transferable on paper. He would leave that to them knowing that that was what it was going to be.the next few days he was also dealing with Deanna who is still in the middle of her grief. Though it seemed to hit her at random times it was still hitting her out of the blue. She was dealing with everything as she always did with her head held high even if she had tears in her eyes.

Max stop Deanna and the kids off at the university and then he went to the Academy. He knew that it wasn't going to take very long for him to go over everything. When he did get there he was ushered into their conference room and he passed out the folders to the three Deans of the different academies. He knew that that was going to be the number one thing that he had to do was make sure that he sold the program. He was good at selling himself as well. He had been doing it for years since he left the military. One of the things that he had to learn that in the civilian world it was his reputation that was going to get him very far. The fact that he had been in the military and woon did in battle wear something that people wanted to know about.

“what did she mean that it's part of the code?” Dana asked when they got into the car and Max had already started driving back to their house.“law enforcement spouses usually stick together. just like they say that there is a blue wall sometimes meaning that officers will stick with each other and not let the civilians know what really goes on.

Max had been surprised the entire night. Everybody had been on their best behavior when they actually saw Deanna standing next to him. And then of course the two kids. Henny was smiling like there was no tomorrow because she knew that he had finally gotten what he always wanted. Mac kept smiling too but it was for a different reason and Max knew that as well. This was definitely going to be one of those things that they were going to have to do frequently enough that Deanna needed to feel comfortable around them. He didn't actually believe that couples should have too many friends that were not other couples. He was kind of old fashioned in the way that he thought. She could have as many friends as she wanted that was perfectly fine but they would probably spend more time with other couples. It just seemed not to cause as many problems in any relationship. At least that was his view of it and like he knew he could learn something else.Mac was more

It's going to be because of you but that's OK.”“what do you mean it's because of me?” Deanna asked if she looked at him she was slightly surprised after being very amused with the way that he was explaining his friends to her. It wasn't like she had a

He meant what he said when he said he wanted to out and celebrate. It wasn't very often that he had the opportunity to spoil the woman that he loved and take his kids out at the same time period though he wasn't exactly short how that was going to work. So he decided that he was going to take them out for a nice meal when his phone began to ring. Halo down and saw that it was a person that he was actually just thinking about Mac Paulin who is another detective in one of the sister police precinct.

Packing everybody up with a little bit easier and he knew that this would become a routine eventually. He knew that he was going to have them there for as long as he worked in the building. He grabbed his folders and put them in his briefcase and then gave Henry his bag. Henry just looked at him like he had completely lost his mind. “When it's time to go home I'm gonna give you this bag. And we're going to pack up the things that you want to take home with you. We can't come back to the university at night so we're going to make sure that we take everything that we want. Remember you have lots of toys at home as well so you can leave some things here. but I know that you wanna take bear and blankie with you.” Mac said as he looked at him and then he began to help Henry pick up the things that were the most important. “We're going to leave your bed in your sisters bed here so it's easier for mommy and me.”“DD is mommy?

It wasn't the one that he had called before but it was a very similar number so he had to assume that it was a police Academy calling him back.“detective Ande

After about 10 minutes of trying to get around exactly what the man was saying Max had enough. He was absolutely just thoroughly enjoying the fact that the man was so flustered that Max kept coming back with something else. It was like none of the other professors actually never questioned him. Or the fact that he normally had a few students going into his office for a few hours every day period of course those particular students were young females who had no business going into the Dean of students for the department’s office period of course Max wasn't actually going to bring that up but he was alluding to it. The only female that he wanted in his office. Was the one who was sitting in the corner.he looked over to Indiana who was watching the whole thing trying not to laugh as she was continuing to fake read whatever she was reading. Max knew that the man was not gonna give up very easily. And of course then the veiled threats that his course was proba
