Tristan heard the baby start to cry. It wasn't unlike her to cry and he was usually awake to begin with. He looked down at Nevada and slowly slipped out of the bed. Maybe Lucy wouldn't be looking for food and he could give his wife a break. He picked Lucy up out of her cradle and started to rock her, nope...she was still crying and soon it was going to reach catastrophic levels.
"Okay baby girl...okay," He whispered rubbing her back. Tristan grabbed a baby blanket and left the bedroom. "Okay ssssh."

Nevada was shivering and scooted over to Tristan, reaching for his arm to wrap around her and opened her eyes as she realized he was no where to be seen. She sat up and looked around the room and saw Lucy was gone too. Her ears perked as she heard his voice, slowly she made her way out of bed to find her husband and daughter.

Tristan had Lucy wrapped in her blanket, pressed against his chest. He leaned back against the fire escape, gently rubbing her back.
"Just needed a little air huh?" He whispered to her and then leaned down and kissed the top of her head. He sighed heavily.
"I don't deserve you," he whispered to her. "I've done too many terrible things."

Nevada walked out into the living room and peaked through the open window and heard Tristan talking. She sat on the window seal and listened to him. Goddammit she loved him. Nevada moved til her legs were dangling out the window, placing a hand on his shoulder, "Lots of people have done terrible things, my love." Nevada murmured into his ear before wrapping her arms around his shoulders. "I love you." She said softly.

Tristan sighed heavily and kissed her forehead before resting his cheek against the side of her head. "Sometimes it wakes me up at night," he admitted to her. He'd never told anyone that before. He felt Lucy squirm in his arms and looked down at her before shifting her position slightly.

Nevada smiled down at Lucy and sighed, "You know you can always wake me.....you don't have to carry those burdens yourself. I'm your wife....you can share everything with me," she whispered.

"I know...just some things are easier to say to her," he glanced at Lucy and then back to Nevada. "There are just certain things that I don't want to burden you with, you don't need to know the details.

Nevada understood what he was saying but still wanted him to feel he could share, if he needed to.
"I didn't marry the good parts of you....I married the good at the bad....all of you, your memories, your decisions, your future." She said softly, "I won't bother you with it, but I'm here to listen," She said, reaching a hand down to touch Lucy's cheekk.

"When I'm ready I'll tell you...I just...I'm not good with words, you know that," He said with a sigh. "At least she's finally asleep." Tristan said when he looked down at the sleeping newborn.

Nevada smiled, happy she had fallen asleep so easily and didn't need to be fed.
'you don't have to tell me at all if you don't want to, just wanted you to know I'm always here to listen.' she said moving to kiss his cheek.

Tristan turned so their lips touched instead, he cupped her face and kissed her deeply.
"I know and it means a lot." he smiled at her.

Nevada smiled against Tristans mouth, he always managed to give her butterflies.
'thanks for getting up for me....it's nice....doing this together, not having it be all me. We get to be sleep deprived together,' she laughed.

"Amazing," Tristan said with a slight laugh. "You always get up...I mean, it ain't like I can feed her. I figured you'd at least get to sleep a little longer."
"Besides, how can I resist her." He looked down at his daughter and smiled. To him she was the most gorgeous baby girl in the entire world.

Nevada laughed and reached and squeezed his chest, 'you mean you can't feed her with these?' she joked.
'I can't blame you for being charmed by our amazing creation,' she said smiling back down a Lucy. 'i just look at her sometimes and am blown away by her,' she admitted sheepishly.

"I am too. I can't even believe we made her ya know?" He kissed the top of Lucy's head and smiled. "I never got to hold Mikey this small." He admitted, "We were still fighting...I didn't see him till he was three months old."
