Normally Aidan would hear someone sneak up behind him. Normally. If he wasn't focused on the files. And if Alice was a human. But she knew perfectly how to get behind him without making a noice so when she pounced onto his back he yelped and sat up. "jeez, Alice!" He grumbled helping her off of his back and onto the bed. "One day you'll give me a heart attack"

"How long have you and Alice been married?" Elsie asked, tugging the jacket tighter around her small frame. Her eyelids fluttered the second she leaned back to rest her head against the soft pillows and she struggled to keep them open. It was just so comfortable and it had been so long since she had been in a proper bed.

Alice doubled over in fit of laughter as she was pushed off his back. The yelp had been hilarious and she only wished that she had caught that on camera to play it for others to see. "A heart attack Mr. Kinney?" She laughed, pushing him back down onto the bed and resting her ear against his chest to listen for a beat. "I don't think so.."

"See? It's already too late. You've already given me one" Aidan said with a small grumble. He stretched out on his back staring at the ceiling. "Jasper sent you, right?" He asked glancing at her. "He told you to distract me? Why do you think I work too much? It's not that I can get sick or something"

Jasper smiled watching how she struggled to keep her eyes open. She was tired and Jasper knew she'd fall asleep soon. Which would be a good thing. She needed a long sleep. She was tired. Obviously she'd spent the past few nights sleeping in places where she had to stay vigilant. "We've been married for five decades." He answered with a gentle smile. "54 years to be precise"

"And is there something wrong with you Major Swift? Fifty-four years is a long time to have not been able to notice what your wife desires most. Or is the idea so horrible to you?" Elsie asked, turning her head to the side to peer up at him. "That many years spent together must have been wonderful but you have to have noticed by now?"

"Sure, blame me for your heart having already grown so cold." Alice stated with a sarcastic eye roll. She ruffled his hair and flopped down on her belly across the bed. "No it was idea to come annoy you, Jasper just encouraged the behavior." She answered, flipping through one of the files before tossing it onto the stack with the others. "But we do think that you work a little too much."

"notice what?" Jasper asked. He didn't know what she was talking about. Whatever Alice wanted he'd give her. She just had to ask. That's all. But Jasper didn't know what else Alice could want that he could give her. "What are you talking about? Alice can have anything she wants. Anything" He said

Aidan sighed throwing his arm over his eyes. "You two are a match made in heaven....or hell." He muttered lifting his arm enough to look at Alice with one eye. "What's wrong with working too much? I have nothing better to do. And I like it. I really do. I enjoy my work" He added. It was a good distraction too when the couple he lived with would get too romantic

Elsie quickly shook her head no, raising up onto her elbows to make sure that he got her message. She wanted to help this couple before she disappeared. She liked this Alice a lot and wanted them both to be happy even if she was not. "What she wants is something that only you could give her and only if you agree, only she is too afraid to ask this of you. Your job is to solve mysteries Major. Study your wife and you'll eventually come to see what she desires." She advised.

"Indeed we are." Alice agreed. "But we both still care for you very much Aidan Kinney, despite what you think. You may enjoy your work but you've got to have a life outside of that sometimes. It's not good for your life to revolve solely around theft and murder, it makes Alice worried for you." She pushed his hair back from his forehead in a motherly manner.

Aidan smiled at her gesture. "don't worry mom, I'm fine. It's not like I'm wasting my time or risking my fragile life" He said crossing his thin arms under his head. "I'm not aging and I'm not breakable, even though I'm clumsy sometimes. He explained. They were worrying too much. "i'm happy this way Alice. I really am"

"No help from you?" Jasper asked with a small grimace. He knew how to study people and he knew how to study Alice. They were so perfect together he could practically guess her every wish and every thought. Apparently not everhy. He couldn't guess now what Alice wanted and what he could give her. He had a small suspicion but he knew that was one thing he couldn't give her.

A soft smile graced Alice's small features when he called her mom and she continued to stroke his hair like she had been doing with Elsie before. "I know that. And maybe you are happy this way but..I'm still worried. You need to spend time with people and not just your clients or your roommates. What I wouldn't give to see you with someone who makes you as happy as Jasper makes me."

"No help from me." Elsie agreed with a small nod of her head. She doubted that this was a conversation that he would want to have with a child but it was something that he needed to address. It wouldn't be too hard to figure out on one's own. With a soft sigh she fell back against the pillows once more, staring up at the cracks in the ceiling.

"I don't want to" Aidan said shrugging. "Having someone makes you vulnerable. I'm happy the way I am. This way I know I only risk my life. And I don't hurt anyone." Why did they have to constantly bother him about that? It was time to change the topic. "And when are you going to talk to Jasper about having a baby?" He asked raising his eyebrows. "Are you waiting for him to figure it out?"

His question worked at shutting Alice up and she rolled over onto her back so that she could avoid Aidan's eyes. That was something that she was trying to push far back into her mind. "I have no idea what you are talking about." She murmured. "There is nothing for him to figure out."

"Eeek! Wrong answer" Aidan said rolling onto his side and pulling some papers from under Alice's head before tossing them onto the floor. "You may fool others but not me. I know. Actually I've seen it a while ago but it's more prominent now with Elsie around. He's a little blind because he knows he can't give you a child...I mean the way he'd like to. But you could always adopt one"

"And why wouldn't he be able to? How do you think you and your sisters came along Mr. Kinney? You are proof that it is not impossible." Alice stated, sitting up to toss the rest of the files onto the floor. He wouldn't be doing any more work tonight if she had any say in it. "And having Elsie around proves nothing. She needs someone to care for her and I am doing just that. It's the job of a good hostess."

"A good hostess is one thing but you act more like a good mother, Alice " Aidan said, his eyes following the files right to the floor. He'd have to put those back in order later. And add some notes. "we were brought to our parents' house by a giant stork" He joked smiling. "Technically you two could have a kid...according to books. But in that case how come you don't have one yet. And why don't you talk to him about it? He'd a man, Alice! he won't figure it out so fast"
