Jerry opened his mouth to start into a lecture right when Kylie lost it. Standing with his mouth open like an idiot he looked down at Kylie not quite understanding. After a few moments of her crying he looked up at the pair of Rylie and Olivia and gestured before he did something rather unusual. Jeremiah turned off his cop personality and sat down on the ground next to Kylie. [color=silver]”Hey, you’re going to smudge your makeup if you go face down on the ground.”[/color] taking off his badge he held it up so Kylie could see what he was doing. [color=silver]”Normally I would think you’re faking but I see I walked into the middle of a hard day for your family. I’m going to put this away for right now.”[/color] Jeremiah tucked the badge into his cargo pants and held up his hands. [color=silver]”Okay, no more cop. So, let’s get you home alright? You want Rylie to take you home?”[/color] Jeremiah gently lifted Kylie’s hair off of the back of her neck and away from her makeup and tear stained face. 

Taking care not to startle her Jerry put his hand gently on her arm and lifted her up off the floor helping her into a sitting position. [color=silver]”Here we go, calm down the water works darling. we’ll get you home and cleaned up and then we can go from there. I won’t put my badge back on today alright? No one is getting in trouble today. Everyone gets a mulligan for right now.”[/color] Jerry looked over at Riley and gave him a head nod towards Kylie. [color=silver]”Come here and let’s get her home okay? I don’t want her driving so if you need me to take anyone I can take someone in my car. I’d take more but I’m driving an unmarked and I don’t think anyone wants to ride in the back seat today.”[/color] Shifting to a crouch he gently prevented Kylie from flopping back onto the floor and continuing her bawling. 

Jeremiah sighed and gave a rather worn out smile at no one in particular. This was turning into quite the day.
