"Very amusing," Derek replied as he walked past Sloan and started towards
the stairs, where he had to stop short and dodge to the side to avoid Kat.
The little girl was suddenly barreling down the stairs towards him calling
his name rather loudly.

"DEREK."

"Slow down," Derek replied his voice still low.  "What's the matter?"

"Nothing," Kat replied.  "There's someone here to see you and Alex told me
to tell you.":

Derek raised an eyebrow, "who is it?"

"Some man," Kat told him, "I never saw him before."  She then looked over at
Sloan eager for that front row seat Alex had mentioned.

"Where is he," Derek asked drawing the child's attention back.

"In the sitting room," she replied watching as he headed upstairs.
