Doctor Leighton made the turn to the trauma ward, and stopped when she saw a man standing in the middle of the hallway.
As she drew closer, she spotted platinum hair between his legs.
Drawing even closer, curiosity in her eyes, and a cautiousness in her walk, her heart raced.
She was about to raise an alarm when the little girl moved, and she saw her face.
"Sophie?"
She jerked, and tightened her hold around Ace's leg.
Gently pulling her away, Ace turned around and came face to face with the doctor.
"Mr Ace Atticus?" She called.
"Yeah, why?"
"What are you doing with the little girl?"
"Talking." He shrugged.
She glanced between the little girl and a haughty looking man who happened to be her best friend's husband.
