The team was celebrating the fact that that Emily and Hotch were finally a couple! The team heard the elevators and turned and saw JJ caring g a cake that said "It's about time! Wish you the best!" it had a heart and inside the heart were the initials A.H + E.P. Morgan was walking to Cake and said "Nice looking cake it reminds me of the time when I was 7 and my dad bought us a cake I was so happy I ran to the cake and fell in it!"The team let out giggles.

"Who falls on cake?" Asked Rossi

"Hey I was happy I wanted a corner before my sisters got one!" answered Morgan in giggles

"Well, stay away from this one ok." JJ said in giggles

"Actually, Jack once threw himself on a cake trying to get the toy story toys!" Hotch said in a complete laugh. The team remembered that day it was a few weeks after Foyet's attack. The whole team was laughing. Emily had been the one to pick up Jack. The team all started laughing at the memory.

While the team cut the cake and made jokes about the new couple and other little things, they were enjoying them self's. When they heard the elevator once again the team turned hoping that it was not Strauss who was still was upset by the news but decided to do nothing about it. Out of the elevator walked a women maybe in her thirties, she was extremely skinny she looked very ill she had no color to her face. Holding the women's hand was a little boy around two years old he had an old spider man backpack and was holding a spider man toy in his hands. In the women's other hand was old bag that looked like the book bags a high school girl used.

Morgan was the first to speak up and said "Hello ma'am how we can help you?"

The women turned her gaze away from Morgan and towards Emily. Emily simply started at her while she saw a sort of fear, sadness in her eyes. The lady started walking towards Emily and gave finally said in a weak tired voice "Emily Prentiss?"

Emily looked at her in wondering who she was and answered "Yes, how can I help you?"

The women looked like she had finally found the answer to her prayers, which she had. She said in a voice with confidence such as if she were giving her last shot at something, "I need you to do me a favor please!" But before Emily could answer the lady had all ready started talking again with a different voice one of fear of rejection. "I need… Can we talk in private?"

Emily looks at her and didn't know what to do as she answered, "Anything you can tell me you can say it in front of them." Emily said as the whole team was surprised Emily had always been very private but ever since her and Hotch started dating she opened up more to them all, but there were things the team still didn't know.

The lady look ashamed as if she were just rejected, "I need to talk to you please… please." She was practically begging Emily.

Emily looked worried she didn't know this women and she was practically begging her for a simple talk. "Just tell me what it is about?"

The women once again looked up at Emily with fear, "It's about….. About….. Matt….Mathew and….. And John…and you."

Emily turned pale with the simple mention of John's name she had seen him yet she could not forgive him or come to think of ever having anything to do with him! The whole team looked at Emily and saw how she looked stricken but scared. Rossi was the first to speak after that and said, "Emily its ok, you don't have to talk to anybody if you don't want to." The team all heard that and found it strange since they had no idea what Rossi was talking about.

Hotch was the one to got up and walked over to were Emily was standing and grabbed her waist and mumbled in her ear "Are you ok?"

Emily turned around to the team, Hotch letting go of her waist, and said in a flat emotion less voice, "its ok." Emily then turned to the lady, "Ok we can talk outside if you would follow me" Emily said holding out her hand towards the elevator.

"No you can use my office" Hotch said standing up from the desk he was leaning on. "Or better yet you can use the conference room."

Emily sighed and held her hand out to the conference room for the lady to follow. When the lady began walking she saw the little boy that was hiding behind her and said, "If you want… If you prefer you can leave this little kido here?" Emily said looking at the boy with a closer look. When she saw something in the little boy's eyes looked so familiar to her. And then looked at JJ and Penelope.

Penelope ran up to were Emily was standing with the lady and said, "Come here sweetie, OMG you are so cute how adorable."

"Thank you," the lady said with a warmth and relive.

As they got to the conference room Emily pulled out a chair for her and made a hand motion for the lady to sit down as well. She did and said, "I'm sorry. I know John is the last person you want to talk about but it's not so much about John It's more about you."

Emily was know even more confused. " How about you start my giving me your name and then telling me what exactly you want me to do for you?" Emily said with a curios voice.

"Oh sorry my name is Linda Rodriguez. And I want you to ….. I need…. NEED you to… see that little boy?" She asked pointing the little boy that know was entertaing the team and was putting whip cream on Derek Morgan's face as he laughed. Emily giggled at how in a few minutes that little boy had won the teams heart.

Emily turned to face her and said, "Yeah, what about him?"

Linda Know looked worried once again and said in such a low whisper that Emily barley heard, "His name is…. his my son…" She started crying and put her face in her hands.

"Is he John's …" Emily asked in a low worried voice.

Linda looked up and shacked her hand and said in a low voice but louder than before, "No… his Mat….Mathew's. Emily looked pale at that point she had no idea Matt her best friend had ever had a son. "Matt...He never knew, he died before I found out I was …. I went to his parents they didn't believe me and told me that if I ever got near them again they would sue for defamation. I have… cancer I gave up I know my life is over but I need to know that my son will be in good hands. The only people in this whole world that Matt would have trusted are you and John especially you. Emily I know this is a lot to handle in just a few minutes but Emily I only have days left and I… I don't want my son to see me die please."

Emily was frozen in shock. Some lady had just walked in to her celebration with the team telling her that her best friend had a son he never knew about and that she needs her to care for the child. As Emily was still frozen with tears running down her cheeks, she heard Rossi yelling "….I said get out, I know for a fact that she didn't call you."

Emily turned and saw John standing outside with a confused look on his face. Linda then got up and Emily followed still having tears running down her cheeks. The team turned to Emily Penelope then gasped when she saw Emily crying something she had never seen none of them had. Hotch looked worried and walked up to her and said "Are you okay sweetie?"

Emily ignored Hotch and just kept staring at John who was also staring at her. And said in a low voice that broke half way, "Let him go Rossi, come on I guess we all still need to talk?" Emily said looking at Linda who looked ashamed. John froze once again at seeing Linda. Then turned and saw JJ holding the little boy in her hands.
