Candy spent most of her day playing with Harrison. Keeping him happy. Trying not to worry, but her nails were a clear sign that that wasn't working so well. She didn't bite her nails often, but today's stress met it harder on her today. Harrison had been good for her, to keep her focused and sane. Especially as he sat in front of her, playing with his toys while wen rested next to them both.

But when the door opened, and she looked up to see her Dad, worn out but smiling. She couldn't help but jump up and run to him, hugging him tight as she buried her face in his chest.

"Dad! They did it. You're..." She couldn't even form another coherent sentence.

Things had gone well. Elektra could not be happier about it. Her husband was still out of custody and now the children had their father back. Seeing their reunion touched her. Despite herself she smiled and dared to hope that maybe someday Bruce could have the same chance at freedom they had given Dexter.

She would have to see that they left soon to go somewhere safer. The plans for that were already set in motion though.

For now she could just enjoy the moment quietly with them.

Bruce wasn't quite that positive about it, but he never was. He knew all too well that they'd all have to leave very quickly in order to avoid being caught, and while he wasn't enough of a killjoy to bring it up immediately, it'd have to get brought up soon.

He was somber-faced as they came home and found Candy and Harrison, standing next to Elektra close enough to touch.

Dexter let out a breath he hadn't known he'd been holding, hugging Candy back tightly and placing a kiss on her hair. "Are you okay?"
