A/N: I own nothing except my plot, and any original characters. There will be pairings in this story but I will not tell who they are at this point as that is part of the mystery of this tale. There will also be minimal crossover from NCIS since they are in the area too. This story is set after 100. I will to the best of my ability accurately describe any locations ect. that I use in this story. I am privileged enough to live 10 minutes from Quantico, and love this area! Also please note that this is my first story so please be kind, but I also whole heartedly welcome criticisms that will help me improve the story as well as my writing. Thanks for reading!

New Year's Through New Eyes

Chapter1

It is new years eve and the members of the BAU had just returned from a case, and were looking forward to having a few days off. Morgan had joined Prentiss and Reid in the bullpen to help them with some difficult paperwork. Their last unsub had been a pair of cops that had decided that it would be good to skip the justice system and execute suspects before they were tried or convicted. They would not surrender which resulted in the death of one, and the paralysis of the other. This resulted in more paperwork than normal, and more difficult paperwork.

"At least it was not one of our team that shot them." Reid mused his voice breaking the relative quiet of the bullpen. Most of the agents in the unit had already left to prepare for the FBI's annual benefit gala for the local charity Hugs For Cancer.

"Do you know what time we are able to head out and start getting ready for that thing tonight?" Morgan asked Prentiss

"I think Hotch said that as soon as the paperwork is wrapped up we could leave." she replied still focused on the last few lines of the work that lay in front of her.

"Hey, then as long as you two are good, then I'm out! I gotta go work my magic!"

"Don't get stuck on yourself Morgan,..." she started with a robust laugh. "Hey, wait, do we have a DD for tonight?"

"Nope, no need, Rossi got a couple of rooms at one of the hotels nearby. They are walking distance."

"Ok , see ya later."

"Later, but first I have to stop by and see my baby girl before I leave" he said as he began walking towards Garcia's office.

Walking by JJ's office, he pops his head in and says "Hey Jayje, I'm out, see you tonight!"

"Ok, see you in a few hours...by the way do you know who anyone is bringing? It seems like everyone has kept it pretty quiet as to who their dates are this year."

"I know, I'm concerned about Hotch, this will be the first benefit since Haley died, the last few we have been on cases so it has not mattered. So no idea who he is taking?"

JJ looked down quickly blushing a little, "No, I have no idea, but I wish I did. He has not said anything to me. I wanna finish this so I can go home and get ready so I will talk to you later alright?

"Ok later" he says and saunters off to Garcia's office.

I wonder what that was all about. Morgan contemplates to himself as he knocks on Garcia's door.

"Enter and tremble at my power mortal!" Garcia quipped with a smile.

"Hey sweetness, what time do you want me to pick you up this evening, I'm headed home to get ready." Morgan said with a chuckle.

"Does 5:30 work for you my statuesque chocolate god?"

"Yeah it does baby girl, see you then" he replied with a smile and a covert look around to see if anyone was around to see dropped a quick kiss on her cherry colored lips. "How much longer are we gonna keep this quiet sugar mama?" he asked as he pulled away, "Its been almost a year already.

"Tonight, my handsome man, I can't wait to see their faces tonight" she exclaimed as he headed for the door.
