*Ring Ring Ring*

You feel the bare body under your shift.

"Mine or yours?" Aaron mumbles.

"That's not my ring tone." You hold him closer. He reaches over and grabs his phone. "That means I have 5 minutes."

"JJ what happened. How long ago? Did you call the rest of the team? Good, I'll be right there." It's never a good thing when JJ calls you so early.

"Wake up." He rubs your shoulder.

"I have 5 minutes." Once those words leave your lips your phone rings. "Oh come on." He hands you your phone. You put the phone on speaker and put it on his chest next to your face.

"Go away." You answered.

"I wish I could." You groaned. "Why'd you leave so early last night?" You forgot only Emily and Spencer saw you leave.

"I had to do something." It technically wasn't a lie.

"More like someone, according to Spence." Shit.

"JJ I know you didn't just call me at 3 in the morning to talk about my sex. What's the case?"

"A kid in Kansas was taken from their home about 2 hours ago." Cases with kids were the worst.

"Oh shit, ok I'll be there as soon as I can." You hung up.

"You told Reid?" You felt a laugh come from his chest.

"I didn't tell him, Emily said I was gonna meet my boyfriend and get laid." You explained. "And she wasn't wrong." You look up to him. He kisses the top of your head. The warmth of his body paralyzed you. If he didn't move there was no way in hell you were gonna get up.

"Ok time to get up." He was waiting for you to move because your body was on his.

"You will have to forcibly remove me from you, cause I will not get up voluntarily." You tightened your grip around him. He goes to grab your arm that was around him. "No, I didn't think you were gonna do it." You whine.

"We got to go." He slips out from under you and your face hits the bed.

"I know." You move to sit up when pain shoots through your body. You groan and lay back down.

"What's wrong?" He rushes back to you.

"Everything is sore." You roll onto your back which seems to soothe the pain.

"So I take it this isn't the best time to tell you that you should wear a scarf." His eyes drifted to your neck.

"Oh, it's gonna be a long day."

~~~~~

You tried to wait a few minutes before entering the building but the you remember there were two missing kids.

When walking into the round table room you were met with Derek and JJ. Hotch was hot in your heels. You out your purse on the side of the chair your regularly sit in.

"Well you look very cloak and daggery." JJ said as you walked over to the coffee pot.

"Thank you." You had on your black trench coat and a dark blue scarf.

"It's also been a while since we've seen the glasses." Derek added.

"Yeah well putting in contacts at 3 o'clock isn't a skill I've perfected yet." You sat down in the chair and tried not to scrunch your face. As your try to find a spot that doesn't hurt as much Hotch walks in. No one says anything like they had been talking about him. Emily walks in wearing the same thing you were minus the glass and her hair was more put together. There was no time to do the normal slick back bun you normally do, so you just settled with throwing it up in a regular bun.

"Why you guys so quiet?" Emily asked and sat next to you.

"What would you like us to talk about princess?" Derek asked and you sipped your coffee.

"We can talk about why Y/N left from the bar so early." You rolled her eyes.

"Or we could talk about the case." You suggested.

"But if we talk about that now, we'll have to repeat ourselves when everyone else gets here." Emily said.

"Where'd you good?" Derek leaned back in his chair.

"I met up with a friend." You put it simply. Hotch had his face stuck in the file.

"A special friend?" JJ asked. "Cause I heard it was a special friend." You opened your moth to tell her to shut up when Rossi and Reid walked in.

"You look like a mess." Rossi sat between you and Hotch.

"Pensa agli affari tuoi." 'Mind your own business.' There were some benefits of there only being 3 of you who spoke the same language.

"Hai trascorso una notte a tarda notte?" 'Did you have a late night?' He smirked.

"Where's Penelope?" You asked JJ.

"Oh she's gonna come in when we get to Kansas. She said you can handle the background search's from here." You nodded. You and Penelope have had lengthy conversation about her software. It was just a precaution in cases something like this happens.

"Then let's get started." Hotch finally spoke.

"Kyle Murphy, 7 year old boy was abducted from his home about 2 hours ago. Father reports the he went to go check on him and he wasn't there." JJ stood and showed pictures of the little boy and his family. "The local police believe that this abduction is tied to other boys that were abducted and found in the woods." The other pictures of the boys popped up on the screen. They all spoke of ideas of how this could've happened but you couldn't take your eyes off the pictures.

"Wheels up in 30." He stood up and walked out of the room while the rest of you grabbed the files.

"How was it?" Emily whispered. In responds you let your eyes to the back of your head. "Really?!" You nodded and started to walk out.

"I was pissed when JJ called." You walked out if the room.

"I would be too." Emily said. You pushed through the glass doors. Aaron was already standing there waiting for the elevator. Emily stands between you. She tilts her head at him.

"Why are you staring at me?" He asked still looking at the elevator doors.

"I'm just seeing you in a new light." Emily smiled.

"Don't." He stepped into the elevator.

You rolled your eyes at both of them and walked in. You stare at your feet as they rock back and fourth. The three of you stood in silence. It took everything in you not to laugh at the situation. Emily was uncomfortable standing between you at Aaron she didn't try to hide it.

It was hard for you not to bite the inside of your cheek. Emily had informed you that it was one of your tells, ever since then you tried to stop.

The elevator ride felt like it lasted a century. When the doors finally opened Emily was the first to step out. You look up to see him smiling. You follow Emily to one of the cars. Rossi was already in the drivers seat with you stepped in. You say with Emily in the back as Aaron say in the passage seat. You shut your eyes and lean your head back in the head rest.

"What the hell is that?" Emily asked and pointed to your neck. You look down and saw that your scarf had unraveled. You quickly fix it and look up to meet Rossi's eyes in the review mirror.

"Nothing." There was nothing you could come up with. Emily reached over and pull off your scarf. Her eyes widen at the sight of the dark mark on your neck.

"You didn't even try to cover it." She says more to herself.

"There's not enough concealer in the world." You said.

"Yeah but you didn't even try." She laughed and you saw Rossi was smiling.

"Well they are covered." You snatch back your scarf and put it back on. You heard Aaron laugh from the conversation.

"And what are you laughing at? You put them there." He said nothing.

You tilted your head back and tried to relax yourself. When the car stopped you saw the rest of the team filing onto the jet.

You find your regular seat at the window. Your eyes starting feeling heavy, but you jump slightly when you feel someone sit next to you. You glance and see a suit. It was Aaron. You relax and lean back in your chair. He normally sat next to you so it did draw any weird looks.

Reid had handed you one of Penelope government laptops. Right you were supposed to be Garcia till she wakes up. Well no one can replace Penelope.

The background for Penelope's laptop was everyone at Rossi's house. There hasn't been many get together at Rossi's since you and Aaron started dating.

"Did you find anything on the families?" Derek asked.

"The activity on their credit cards have been slow the past couple of day, the wife normally goes to the store every other day for small items." You said and kept typing. "Besides that they look like a normal family."

"Can you see who they may have come in contact with in the past few months?" Emily asked. She sat across from you.

"Your gonna need to give a number." You said. You we're starting to understand why Penelope was sassy most of time.

"4 months."

"That's strange." You mumbled and Hotch look over at the computer. "The detective that called us in, he's very close with the Murphy's."

"How close?" Hotch asked.

"Him and Mr. Murphy grew up together, and they still talk on the regular." Everyone looked confused.

"Can you see what was said in there messages?" Hotch asked.

"If Penelope can do it, I can surely try." You dig a little deeper to find the messages. "Most of the conversation is about dinner party and birthday. They mostly call but those only last a few minutes." You looked up.

"How long we talkin?" Derek asked.

"Umm... less then 10 minutes. Considering how little they talked on the phone I would assume that they each other a lot."

"We'll discuss this more when we land, everyone try to get some sleep." You push the computer aside and lay your head in the side of the plane and shut your eyes. He slipped his hand on your thigh. He felt you relax under your touch.

~~~~~

"You think you can lie to me and get away with it?" Cyrus slaps you across the face. Your regained your balance. He steps forward and punches your stomach. You fall to the ground.

"We've could've avoid all this." He kicks you.

"You don't have to keep doing this." You coughed out.

"You lied, this is what you get." He kicks you again. You coughed up blood every time he kicked you.

"God must forgive me for what I just do." He pulls a gun from the back on his pants and point it at you. You swallow hard. There was no escape.

"Please, don't" You begged.

"I have no choice." The barrel of the gun was cold when it touched your temple. A tear rolls down you cheek.

"I love you." You mumbled into the wire that was in your shirt. Aaron was listening and you knew that. You squeeze your eyes shut.

Bang.

"Y/N." Aaron voice was soft as he shook your shoulder. You open you eyes to see the whole team staring at you.

"What?" Your throat was dry.

"Your crying." Derek said. You lift your hand to your cheek, it was wet.

"Sorry." You wipe away the tears.

"What were you dreaming about?" Emily asked.

"Cyrus." Your eyes wandered on the table in front of you. "This time he had a gun to my head and pulled the trigger." Everyone's attitudes changed.

"Guys I'm fine." You smiled the best you could.

"Your gonna say that after having a nightmare." Derek said.

"Of those with PTSD, 71% to 96% may have nightmares. People who have other mental health problems, such as panic disorder, as well as PTSD are more likely to have nightmares than those with PTSD alone. Not only are trauma survivors more likely to have nightmares, those who do may have them quite often." The facts spewed out.

"She's right." Spencer confirmed. Everyone nodded and went back to what they were doing. You turn your head to see Aaron eyes haven't felt you.

"I'm fine." You touch his legs as reassurance.

"How long have you been having nightmares?"

"The day we got home from the hospital, that night I woke up sweating."

"Why did you tell me?" His eyes were soft.

"Cause I only had 2, it wasn't anything major." You weren't lying this had been your 3rd nightmare, so you haven't thought anything of it. "When I woke up you were there and I knew I was safe."

"Is that why you would lay on top of me?" He cracked a small smile.

"That and you keep me warm." You smiled. "I'm sorry for not telling you." He grasped the hand that was on his leg.

"It's ok." Everything in you wanted to put your head in his shoulder but you couldn't.

Emily muttered something staying awake because they were going to be landing soon. Before you had a chance to get up and get coffee you heard a familiar voice.

"Hey, my loves." Penelope said from the computer. She looked as tired as you felt.

"Hey Babygirl, how you feelin?" Derek asked.

"Good, aside from my very large headache." Everyone cracked a small smile.

"Well that's what happens when you want to have 4 shots in an hour." JJ said from behind you.

"It seemed like a good idea at the time." She pushed her glasses further up.

"Well it's sound like you guys had fun ." You said.

"Yeah we did." Penelope smiled. "Wait you were there." Before you had a chance to correct her Emily said something.

"Actually she left early."

"Ok let's not do this again." You looked at Emily.

"Wait why'd you leave?" Penelope had no clue what was going on.

"I'll tell you soon." Your words choice didn't go unnoticed but Emily and Aaron. She was satisfied enough with your answer to continue.

"Is there anything you guys need me to find or did Y/N cover it?" Penelope asked.

"Preliminary background check on the first two victims families. We're just about to land we'll call you from the station." Hotch said and Penelope signed off.

Everyone got off the plane in seconds. It had already been 7 hours since Kyle went missing. Rossi, Derek, Emily and you headed to the families house. When you pull up you see reporters standing on the front law facing Kyles parents.

"I'm glad the took our advise on starting the press conference, but did they have to do it on the crime sense." Rossi said as you all stepped out of the car. You all stood by the car and listened to what the family was saying. After answering some question the detective walked over.

"That was fast." He said and shock your hands.

"We don't have a lot of time. Can you show us around?" Derek asked.

"You should've taken this off property." Rossi said referring back to his first point.

"Yeah, well, the truth is I wanted to do this down at the station. Danny and Sarah didn't want to leave the house, in case Kyle comes back." He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a picture of Kyle.

"Uncle Bill?" Derek took the picture and turned it over.

"Yeah, we're friends and Neighbors. Dan and I grew up around here." He said.

"Yeah well we already knew that." You said it so it was mostly Emily who heard you.

"You know, your involvement in this cases could be a conflict of interest." You and Emily hung back and watched the detectives movements. He was very stiff, considering how close he was to the family it wasn't weird.

"We're going to go speak to the parents." You and Emily walk past he men and into the home. Kyles parents were standing in the living room. You and Emily gave warm smiles as you introduced yourselves.

"Do you mind if we ask a few question?" Emily asked. They nodded in agreement and sat on the couch. "Thank you all for speaking with us. I cannot stress enough how much time if of the essence."

"Abductions from the home are rare, and that allows us to narrow down the suspect pool even more." You said and took a seat across from the family.

"What makes them so unusual?" The father asked.

"Abductions typically are about timing and opportunity. A child walks home alone or gets separated at a shopping center, that sort of thing." You answer.

"This is a sophisticated high-risk crime, who ever did this has good social skills. They're high-functioning, and they have a steady job. They wouldn't look out of place to you, and you wouldn't be alarmed if you children were talking to them. So he may be wearing a uniform, like a deliveryman or a mail carrier." Emily explained. "Have you noticed anyone hanging around the neighborhood talking with the children?"

"Nothing come to mind?" The father said, the wife seemed to distraught to answer the question.

Emily offered to take a break, but she went to go lay down. She continued asking the father and brother questions. You were supposed to be watching body language and tells, but you couldn't think straight. If something happened to Jack you would lose your mind, even though he's not even your kid. But you did care for his as if he was your kid. You were pulled out of your thought when your phone rang. You excused yourself from the room.

"Hello?" You answered.

"Y/N we need you back at the station, Spence is going through list of registered sex offenders in a 30 mile radius of where the boys were taken, we narrowed it down but there's still a lot, Hotch and I are doing the best we can to help but Spencer says you can help make a dent." JJ said. Going through sex offenders lists wasn't something you really wanted to do but it was the job.

"Ok, I'll be there as soon as I can." You hung up and told Emily you had to head back.

Just as you were walking out of the house you saw Rossi getting into the SUV. You run up and quickly jump in. You tell him what was going on as he pulled off. You let your eye watch the tress pass you by. Everything seemed so calm, people walked around like nothing was wrong. To the nothing was wrong, but only if they knew all the horrible things that happened.

"Are you ok?" Rossi asked.

"Yeah, why?" You gave a half smile.

He shrugged and said, "You just seem every distant today."

"Oh, I hate cases that involve kids." Everyone did, it was one of the worst parts of the job. He turned his head slightly to read your face.

"Your thinking about Jack aren't you." How the hell did he know that. Do you admit or act like it was something else? There was no point it lying to Rossi he knew everything.

"Yeah, I can't even begin to imagine what those parents are going through. My heart sinks when I think of something bad happening to Jack and he's not even my kid."
