AN: I was listening to Hotline Bling by Drake and this story popped into my head. I felt inspired by Polhop, amazing works, Needing stitches is what inspired this probably oneshot.

In this story, Derek and Garcia were just starting their relationship but then he took the New York job, and it's been a little over 2 years, he comes back to visit for an event. And also foyet didn't kill Haley but they still aren't together. Boy, have things changed...

I feel at home walking into the BAU. Man I've missed it, I missed all of them but mostly miss my solace. I don't know why I was stupid, and scared. I'm not suppose to be scared but here I am, scared to see the woman I loved the most. I didn't mean to hurt her, but life just happen. New York was a chance to grow professionally, then I met Angie and feelings grew there. It was never meant to be anything but she was sweet, kind and caring. We just happened. I remember breaking up with Penelope and she looked hurt but still not surprised, she even told me, "I knew you would break my heart. Just do me a favor, be happy. Find someone to grow old with, don't be so focused on now that you can't see your future needs. Love someone, anyone, don't be old and bitter about not having happiness when you never allowed it to happen." Then she got up and left crying and I felt like shit because I hurt the one woman who saw the good even when it was a bad situation.

I knew I messed up that moment but pride didn't allowed me to push it to the side.

It's been 2 years later, and I still can smell her fragrance in the bullpen. I wait to surprise the others. They are only coming to finish paperwork, then vacation for the wedding.

I see them enter, I flash my smile getting up to greet the family I've missed a ton.

Reid saw me first, he smiled and walked over to give me a hug while the others followed.

"Hey Morgan, it's been a long time." Patting his back, then Rossi was next. JJ and Emily gave him hugs and smiles, emily said, "You ready for the job as my Man of Honor?!"

"Of course I am. Woman, I was born ready." I chuckled out.

"Will he be wearing a different color dress from the bridesmaids?" Asked Hotch with a huge grin.

"Hotch, I would look great in any color!" He said with faux anger. Looking around for someone they all knew. Reid answered my quiet question, "Oh guys, Garcia is gonna meet us at the restaurant with her guests." He stated as if telling the team.

JJ asked, "Where's Angie?"

"She's coming down the day of the wedding. Work work all my baby does, but she can't wait to see you guys again." he said with a soft chuckle. "Well I am going to my hotel I'll see you guys at the restaurant. Have fun with paperwork." I proceed to leave after the goodbyes.

JJ and Reid watch him leave. JJ spoke up, "How do you think he's gonna take it?"

Reid answered slightly confused,"Take what?"

"Garcia, Reid. You know she isn't the same at all. It'll be like meeting a new person for him. They haven't talked or seen each other. Neither have they asked about each other."

"I'm sure he'll be shocked at her appearance but I think other than that it'll be fine. He has been with Angie for 2 years, longest relationship and that's counting Garcia. Obviously, even if we think different, they weren't meant for each other."

"Sure, Reid." With that she walked away because she knew tonight was going to be interesting.

Later

I walk into the restaurant and immediately see the team at the table. They are all talking and laughing with some other girls I've never seen.

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late." I said as I took a seat.

"No problem. Overslept?" Emily asked.

"No just doing some paperwork of my own" I laughed.

Then I hear a squeal behind me...

"Derek Morgan! As I live and breathe! How are you?!"

I turn and see her looking as beautiful as always but completely different. She looks way- she lost a lot of weight but looks like gained muscle- not to much but enough. She isn't wearing glasses, her hair is still blonde just straight and parted at the side and she had on a black skin tight dress with red pumps. I was speechless as I got up from the chair and she gave me a hug. She then introduced me to her friends, "These are my friends, Sara and Jess. Jess and Sara, this is Derek Morgan." She smiled sweetly. I shook their hands but I saw some annoyance in their face.

"My lovelies, we need to go but see all of you later at Bella's." She kissed and hug everyone including me as they left.

I simply stared and the rest noticed even Emily's fiancé, Jacques.

JJ spoke up, "I know it's a bit jarring. She's completely different not just appearance either. We don't see her as much anymore, besides work."

I nod, and ask,"what's Bella's?"

Emily laughs, "Morgan, you did not read my text correctly. It's a night club, we are going to after."

I smile and we continue our banter, and then head to Bella's and I'm excited to see my babygirl again.

Bella's

We arrive and see Garcia on the dance floor with her friends, she had on a red skin tight dress with long sleeves but way short that showed off her mile long legs. Her hair was in curls and I couldn't stop staring she looked so happy and carefree- dancing. She never danced- ever. She rotated with dancing partners, it started with her girls then some guys, and my blood started boiling seeing their hands roamed her body. She didn't seem bothered. When she noticed we were there she slowly danced away from the guy and he tried to pull her towards him. I was going to go do something when I saw her laugh then whisper something into his ear, the mans face slowly went from oh yeah to oh shit. Whatever she said made him leave, running scared. I was slightly proud of her.

"Hey guys, so happy you all are her. In honor of raven haired beauty and French Dulce's holy matrimony I got you guys vip and its rooftop so let's go. Jess, baby cakes, can you get them bracelets?" Jess nodded and left to get them. She grabbed JJ and emily to drag them to the bar for drinks.

I can't help but think to myself, that she has changed as people around her say hi and the bartender immediately tends to her and chats like she's a regular here. I wonder who is she now. She isn't the same shy girl at the night club. Even her friends are different, it's always been Emily and JJ that she has jokes with and girls nights.

We're on the rooftop, drinking listening to music and I just watch Garcia as she dances and flirts with the Dj and the bartender. Then I see a man come behind her wrapping his arms around her waist and she simply smiles and turns around a kisses him passionately. As I watch his hands roam her body and rest on the curve of her back, I think back to what we had and what we use to do. I can't help but think if she does it with him. I hear Aaron start talking, "He's the club owner, they aren't exclusive. Though, it's not for the lack of him trying, she doesn't want that. He's a good guy. Hopefully, one day she can trust again and let him love her properly. She left for 3 months on leave, she stormed my office with a look I never seen- heartache we all saw- this look was of betrayal. She told me that If I didn't give her the leave she quit and of course I couldn't do that. Sara and Jess work in counterterrorism. I heard from them that they all met at the gym. They're inseparable now. She pulled herself away from us, she still warm, caring and funny. Now she's stronger. She took her firearm exam and did a pretty good job. We miss her, though."

I stare and absorbed the information. "What am I suppose to do?"

"Nothing. You can't do anything. I'm just letting you know you aren't the only who misses her. "

I walk over to her and throw my pride to the side.

"Hey babygirl..."
