The next day J.J stopped by Dave's office and, after closing the door, spoke to Dave in a low voice.

"Will did have a couple of suggestions so maybe we can meet up with Jack to discuss options. I've thought of one or two and I'm sure the others have come up with stuff."

"You guys free this Saturday? Henry can come over as well."

"Yeah we're free."

"Why don't you go see if Hotch will let you have Jack then we can arrange a time?"

"Sure, what sort of time should I say I'll pick up Jack?"

"10 maybe. I can order some pizza for lunch for all of us."

"Sure. Back in a second."

J.J went across to Hotch's office and popped inside.

"Hey Hotch."

"Hey J.J everything going okay?"

"Yeah great. Er…Henry wants to know if Jack can come over this Saturday. He wants to spend the day playing with Jack."

"Jack's free. Sure that's fine with me. What time do you want me to drop him off?"

"Actually I have to pop out for something first thing so I can pick him up. Either me or Will will make sure he gets back later on. So can I come pick him up at say about 10? We'll give the boys something for eat for lunch and see about dinner."

"Sure that's fine with me J.J. Let Jack spend his Saturday playing with Henry."

"Thanks Hotch. See you later!"

"Sure J.J. Bye!"

J.J hurriedly left Hotch's office and went back to Dave, hoping Hotch wouldn't notice, which luckily he didn't.

She re entered Dave's office and closed the door again.

"Saturday's on. I'm picking Jack up about 10. Hotch thinks he's coming over to spend the day playing with Henry."

"I'll ask all the guys to be at mine by 10.30 and I'll see if Garcia can get a phone and a few batteries for Saturday. May as well get things moving whilst we can."

"Sure."

"Can you tell Blake and Spencer to be at mine by 10.30. Blake can pick Spencer up on her way."

"Sure. You gonna tell Morgan, Garcia and Matt?"

"Yeah."

Once J.J had left, he sent Morgan and Matt the same text. 'Be at my mansion at 10.30. People have few ideas. Maybe we can make Jack's dream come true. Dave.'

Then he pretended to leave the BAU bull ring to go to the men's room. He did pop and use the bathroom just to make the it seem like that was really the only reason he left but, instead went to see Garcia.

"Hey Rossi. So I was thinking and did think of one or two things maybe."

"That's great kitten. We're all meeting at my mansion by half 10 on Saturday. J.J's told Hotch Jack's spending the day at her place with Henry so she'll get Jack. Can you get a phone we need with a few extra batteries before Saturday and maybe get the phone and a battery fully charged? Here…." He handed her one of his credit cards. "Use this to pay for everything including a $50 phone card for the phone's credit. The sim card can be a disposable pay as you use it option. If Jack starts to run low, I can top his phone credit up for him. Once you have the phone and everything give us all the number. Oh and programme everyone's numbers BUT Hotch and Jessica's numbers into the phone for him and then you'll need to show him how to do everything with the phone on Saturday. Can you do that kitten?"

"You really trust me with a credit card of yours?"

"Yeah, just give it back when you come on Saturday. This card is one of the only ones to have a limit on it but I never use the card. But yeah I do trust you. So can you do all that for me in time for Saturday morning, remembering everything we told you we needed in terms of cell phone?"

"Yeah I know which one to get, I can buy extra batteries with stuff to charge them outside the phone. How many batteries should I get Rossi?"

"Er, we should give him a spare with the phone and will need at least a couple of spare. The batteries need to last as long as possible. Have they got good lives battery wise?"

"Yeah the phone's battery should last a good day with constant use…."

"Buy 4 maybe 5, so we can always give him a spare battery when we have Henry do the battery swop at school. Label every battery with a number, including the battery in the phone so that everyone knows which battery is which and Jack never gets confused when he's changing the phone's battery. Oh and I can swop batteries with him when I see him for soccer on Sundays. I can do it without Hotch seeing as we always go back to hang out at Hotch's apartment after soccer. We can make sure he has enough battery power to last him from Friday until I see him on Sunday. So will you do all that?"

"Sure Rossi man I can do that. So 10.30 at your place on Saturday?"

"Sure."

"Can I bake him some cookies? We can make it seem like I popped by for a visit. Hotch knows I love popping by to see my boys and to spend time with them anyway…."

"Sure Jack and Henry will love them. Henry's gonna be there too. We're gonna need his help keeping in contact with Jack and making sure Jack's phone always has battery power."

"Aww…in that case I'll cook TRIPLE the normal batch for BOTH peanut butter AND chocolate chip cookies. You guys can have a few but most of them will be for the boys."

"Thank you kitten. The boys will love them. I'll get plenty of soda, milk, cocoa and juice in for the boys and everyone to drink. I'll make sure that I have plenty of coffee as well. And I'll order some pizzas at lunch for us. But basically we can all spend the whole day with Jack without his dad there."

"Cool. Looking forward to it already. I'll get all the stuff and give you the card back, with receipts, on Saturday."

"Thanks kitten. I'd better get back now but I'll see you later…"

That night J.J was at her house and told Will and Henry, whom they had told of Jack's simple but worthwhile dream and how they wanted to help him achieve the dream.

"Henry, Jack's dad thinks he's coming here to play with you on Saturday but we're all going over to Uncle Dave's house so that we can all talk. I know it maybe a bit boring for you but we're gonna need your help in keeping in contact with Jack as his dad and aunt can't find out anything and you see him every day at school.

"Sure, I wanna help Jack too mom."

"I know you do buddy. So I'm gonna swing by and pick him up at 10 then I'll pick you guys up on our way to Uncle Dave's. That okay with you Will?"

"That's fine J.J. I'm just glad we can finally start helping Jack with his dream. The kid deserves to have such a simple dream become reality."

"What's reality dad?"

"When you make something real buddy."

"Oh right."

"So can you tell Jack that on Saturday we're all be going to Uncle Dave's where he can talk with the whole team? He'll understand"

"Sure mom, I'll tell him. "

The next day Dave was in luck again as Hotch had to attend a 3 hour afternoon meeting. He'd decided they needed to meet up before Saturday so that they could pool their ideas and come up with some kind of plan for Jack. He'd sent everyone a text. 'Meet in conference room as soon as Hotch goes to meeting at 1pm. Need to come up with plan before Sat meeting with Jack. Anyone who needs to go use bathroom in time. Dave.'

At 1pm, Hotch had just left for the meeting and everyone hurried to the conference room, where Dave again locked them in the conference room. This time he and Morgan sat at the table with the rest of them. Dave sat with a pad of paper and a pen in front of him.

"So everyone got my text?"

"Yeah, that's why we're here Dave."

"I thought we needed to meet up before Saturday so we could pool our ideas and come up with some kind of even basic plan before we talk to Jack on Saturday. So, why don't we go round and I'll write down every different idea people have of how we can get Hotch and Jessica alone together and get them to see that marrying each other is the right thing to do. Why don't we start with you Matt, and work round? J.J, you can tell us Will's ideas, and Alex, you can tell us James's ideas. So Matt? Ideas?"

"Well I could only really come with one or two ways of getting them together on a first couple of dates…maybe we can trick them into meeting up for a romantic meal alone together? We could maybe lie and say everyone is meeting up for a fancy meal where we've decided to dress up at your place but then we could set the scene? We could even help convince him to let Jack go over to Henry's for the evening as we'd say it was an adults only thing and that J.J was getting a sitter who could watch both boys."

"Great idea Matt! I wouldn't mind setting a big romantic scene at my mansion. J.J you wouldn't mind having Jack sleep over would you?"

"Course not Dave. He can sleep over any time."

"Looks like we got the first date set up. So any other idea's Matt? I'm not sure we could trick them a second time into another meal at mine, providing everything goes alright."

"The only thing I could think of was locking them in a room together….but I was desperately trying to think of ideas…."

"Could work. Lock…them…in …a…room…together…okay J.J, what have you and Will come up with?"

"Well, using Jack to help, we could maybe try and go behind their backs, telling the other one that the other said something or what we think the other feels, etc. Also we could still trick them into meeting up for dates and set different scenes. I know your place has already been used but maybe one of our places can be used after?"

"I don't mind using my place J.J" Matt turned to face J.J

"Thanks Matt. I'll write that down J.J. Any other ideas?"

"We could trick them into meeting up and bumping into each other at different casual places…."

"Brilliant."

"And we could try and drop small hints that wouldn't make Hotch suspicious."

"True. Good ideas J.J. Spencer?"

"I'm no good at dating Rossi but I did think of the same idea of J.J's of getting them to bump into each other at different places…..that and Matt's idea of locking them in a room together…..sorry Rossi. I'm just no good at this kind of thing…."

"That's okay Spencer. At least you came up with something. Doesn't matter that J.J and Matt also thought of them. Alex, what you and James think of?"

"Well, we did have the same ideas that J.J and Matt thought of. Also James said he'd cook them a really romantic meal. He was naughty in suggesting we could trick them into sharing a hotel room once or more times….he'd even pay for the room….that and locking them in a bedroom together or having a big sleepover at your place but the only bedroom being free for either of them being a big double room, that sort of thing."

"Brilliant Alex. Think we could use the hotel room idea more than once. I'd happily pay too. He's welcome to cook for them too. The sleepover is another good one. I actually also thought of that one. Great ideas Alex. Tell James thanks. He can come on Saturday can't he?"

"Yeah. For sure."

"J.J, Will can come on Saturday can't he?"

"Yeah definitely. He's coming with me and Henry and Jack."

"Brilliant. So kitten any ideas?"

"We could send emails to them claiming to be from each other. I could also use my computer babies to send texts to their phones, claiming to be from other one, especially when it comes to having them meet up somewhere. I also had the same idea as J.J of dropping little hints and stuff."

"Brilliant kitten. We could definitely use your computers to help set them up. Anything else?"

"Not at the moment. But I'm getting that phone and everything else tonight. I'll give you the receipts and your credit card back to you on Saturday. I'll make sure everything is ready with the phone and I'll text everyone the number when I have it."

"Thanks kitten."

"Dave you gave her one of your credit cards?" Matt and the others looked a little shocked.

"Yeah well it's a card I don't really use, I trust her completely, plus the card has a limit on it so she can't overspend, though I don't mind how much all the phone stuff costs, plus I'm gonna be making sure Jack's always got plenty of credit on his phone."

"Morgan, ideas?"

"Apart from setting them up on and tricking them into dates, getting them to bump into one another and dropping hints and talking behind their backs, couldn't we trick them into meeting up at a set up wedding so they don't realise what's happening until their standing at the alter?"

"Maybe, that might work. Thanks Morgan. Er…sorry guys all the ideas you've had I also thought of some of them. So how about we now make a plan? Don't forget Jack will be helping us a lot, he will always have to come first and whatever we plan for Hotch and Jessica, we'll have to make sure we plan something for someone taking care of him. Even if its one of us taking him somewhere for the day."

"Sure Rossi. We all understand that Jack would have to come first in any plan. We'd all make sure someone could have and watch Jack, wouldn't we guys?"

"YEAH" they all spoke as one.

Together they all came up with a very good plan, hoping that each meeting or date they set up would not make either Hotch or Jessica suspicious and they were counting on each meeting going well."

The following Saturday, J.J picked up Jack as planned and walked with him from the apartment to her SUV parked outside.

"Did Uncle Dave and Uncle Derek talk to you guys then Aunt J.J?"

"Yeah he and Morgan told us everything about what you wanted. We've actually come up with a few suggestions buddy so me and you are picking Henry and Will up and we're all heading to Dave's where the whole team, including Uncle Matt will be there and we can all talk and we can TRY to get things started to making your lovely dream come true."

"REALLY? You guys can help me make my dream come true?"

"We can try Jack. That's for sure. But we'll be spending the whole talking to you at Dave's."

"Thank you Aunt J.J. I love you guys. It would awesome if you could at least try anything. I'd do everything I can to help."

"Henry wants to help you as well."

"Henry wants to help?"

"Yeah. I told him of your dream and he really wants to help you, his best friend and we'll need his help with keeping in contact with you when you guys see each other at school. But we'll explain all that today. Oh and if this thing goes ahead, you might be spending a lot of sleepovers and playdates at our house…."

"I'm always up for sleepovers and playdates. And I love spending time with time with Henry. So you guys really wanna help me Aunt J.J? I thought this dream could never come true?"

"We all REALLY want to help TRY to make it come true. You deserve this the most and it's so sweet and simple that you should have if things go the way they should. But remember Jack we can't force your dad and Aunt Jess to get married. That would have to be their decisions and be up to them."

"I know Aunt J.J I just really wanna try and make it happen. So thank you."

"Your more than welcome Jack."

They pulled up outside J.J's house and J.J simply honked her horn and they sat in the car waiting for Will and Henry to come out. Jack lit up as soon as his best mate was strapped into the back seat next to him by his dad.

"Hey dude!"

"Hey Jack buddy!"

"Hey' ya Jack. You okay?"

"Hi Uncle Will. Yeah I'm okay. So dude I hear you wanna help me?"

"Yeah dude. Every kid should have both a mom and dad! I'm sorry you lost your mom but you deserve someone as good as your first mom was to you."

"Thanks dude! "

All 4 them continued to happily chat away whilst J.J drove to Dave's mansion. When he went inside with Henry and family, Jack was surprised see Matt there too.

"Uncle Matt, are you gonna try and help too?"

"Yeah Jack. Dave and Morgan told us all about this dream of yours. And I wanna do whatever I can to help the team help you make the dream come true."

"Thanks Uncle Matt!"

"Hey guys. You made it okay?"

"Yeah. Dad thinks I'm spending the day at Henry's house playing with Henry….Aunt Penny you gonna help too?"

"Hey Jack star! Hey Henry dude! Yeah Jack I wann help. Oh and there's a surprise for you guys in the living room."

"Hey boys what would you like to drink?"

"Have you got soda again Uncle Dave?"

"Yeah, plenty of it…."

"Can we have soda?"

"Sure. J.J, Will, I got great coffee, soda, juice, water, milk, cocoa….."

"Coffee Will?"

"Yeah. We're both fine with coffee Dave."

"Matt?"

"Coffee for me too. You need help taking them in?"

"Nah got a couple of trays and Morgan's helping me. You guys go ahead. Everyone including Mudgie is already in there. Think Mudgie can't stop staring at the table….We'll in there in a minute. MORGAN, 3 MORE COFFEE'S AND 2 SODAS!"

"I THOUGHT I WAS HELPING YOU NOT SERVING YOU ROSSI MAN!"

"YOU ARE HELPING ME BY HELPING SERVE! NOW STOP COMPLAINING AND GET TO WORK TOUGH GUY! WE NEED TO GET THINGS GOING! Guys go ahead. Boys go see Aunt Penny's surprise for you both!"

The 2 boys looked at each other before running ahead into Dave's living room, where they not only saw their Uncle Spencer, Aunt Alex and Uncle James but they saw the table.

"Dude! Look at all those cookies!"

"Dude, there's both chocolate chip AND peanut butter!"

"AWESOME! Mom! Dad! Look at this!"

The adults walked into the room.

"Treat for you guys, especially you Jack but also a few for us. You guys can have all the peanut butter ones, that's for certain."

"Thanks Aunt Penny! Your AWESOME!"

"Yeah thanks Aunt Penny! You ARE AWESOME!"

"Dude look at Mudgie!"

Mudgie was sitting staring up at table, hoping against hope that one of those delicious looking AND smelling cookies would fall on the floor, either that or someone would feel sorry for him! He broke off staring at the table and ambled over to where Jack stood, sensing the boy still needed his comforting and wanting to reassure himself that his friend felt better after last weekend.

"Hey Mudgie, it's great to see you pal! Thanks for last Saturday. You were one really good pal!"

Mudgie saw Jack smiling and, already wagging his tail, started wagging his tail even harder, seeing his friend looked a lot better than he had the Saturday before. This was the Jack he knew."

"Uncle Dave?"

"Yeah Jack?"

"If we get time later, can me and Henry play outside with Mudgie? After what he did for me last weekend, he deserves to play with a ball and Frisbee with us." Dave and Morgan walked in carrying trays with drinks and a few plates for the boys to eat cookies with.

"Sure Jack. As long as there's time after we finish talking and before you have to go home, you boys can play with Mudgie in the back yard for as long as you want or for whatever time we got left."

"Thanks Uncle Dave."

"So boys, chocolate chip or peanut butter to start?"

"Chocolate chip please Aunt Penny!"

"Yeah me too Aunt Penny!"

"You got it guys!"

Garcia put 3 large cookies on each plate for the boys to munch on whilst they started talking.

"Guy's let sit down and start. Shall we? Boy's come sit on the couch. Easier to eat and drink. Mudg come lie next to their feet boy!"

The 2 boys sat beside each other on the couch. Dave sat next to Jack on Jack's right and Morgan sat next to Henry on Henry's left. Dave had extra chair and the others sat on the chairs around the front of the couch, all facing Jack.

"Hey Jack I know we can't promise anything, that this might not work out, however much we try and want it to ourselves, and we know that your dream still might not come true. But we're all willing to give it a shot. You deserve to be happy."

"So does dad, Uncle Dave. And so does Aunt Jess, though she always seems happy."

"Yeah Jack. Your dad deserves to be happy as much as you do. So does you Aunt. But I need to make sure you know that everything could still not work out the way you want it to."

"I know Uncle Dave and I love that you guy wanna even try to help. I'd be so grateful if you could even try as all 3 of us belong together as a real family."

"We all want to try and help you achieve that dream. Not only did we have to come up with some ideas, but we also had to come up with a way to keep in contact with you without your dad knowing what we are doing, what we're saying and that we are even in constant contact."

"I knew that might be a little tough seeing as dad or Aunt Jess is always with me and they'd get suspicious if you guys were always trying to talk or call me on the phone…."

"Which is why we bought you your own cell phone. Now we need you to keep it hidden from sight in your backpack and keep it on silent and vibration mode. Because we know you can't charge it yourself, we bought extra batteries and we'll make sure you always have battery power. Henry this where we need you to help. We need you to take Jack spare cell phone batteries and swop them with him when you guys are at school. Jack we'll show how to change the battery and we'll always make sure your cellphone has plenty of battery power. The batteries will last the phone a good 24 hours each battery with constant cell phone use. On Friday's we'll give you enough battery power to last until I see you on Sunday for soccer. We can do a battery swop when I come back to hang out with you guys after soccer."

"You guys would really give me my own cell phone? Dad would never let me have one….what if he finds out about it?"

"We'd all do our best to help you make sure he didn't. But we need you to keep it hidden in your backpack at all times and do your best never to let him or your aunt see you using it. We'd use it most for texting instead of calls. I've already put $50 credit on it. If you start to run low on credit just let me know and I can top your phone up via an ATM machine. I'll always make sure you have plenty of credit on the phone but it'll only be to contact one of us. Aunt Penny has programmed in all our cell phone numbers. We will need to keep it safe, keep it hidden from your dad and aunt and be very responsible and only use it to keep in contact with us. We'd help make sure the phone always had battery power and credit on it. When you guys do the battery swop, we'll make sure you have a spare battery with full power that you can put in the phone if the battery in the cell phone starts to run low. Aunt Penny has numbered all the batteries so we can all know which battery is which and you can never get confused when changing them. If you want, we can talk to your teacher to explain things so that she'd let you not only keep the cell phone with you but would help keep it safe and hidden. Of course we would never try to contact you in school time. We'd only text you outside school hours and we'd only call you on the cell if we were sure you weren't around your dad or Aunt Jess."

"Can you talk to Miss Anderson? She has to make sure she knows that dad can never find out about my cell phone or you guys doing all this. If she knew about the cell phone maybe she could hold onto it for safety in the day but would still let me change the battery in it."

"Good idea Jack. J.J can I meet you at the school on Monday morning and we can go and talk to Jack's teacher before class?"

"Sure Rossi. Don't worry Jack, we'll make sure Miss Anderson understands everything. I know she'd want to help make you happy and would love to help you keep the cell phone hidden and safe."

"Thanks Aunt J.J. If she held onto the cell phone in the day then I wouldn't have to worry about the other kids stealing it, wanting to use it, breaking it or anything."

"Sure Jack. That's a good plan. We'll talk to her on Monday morning and then she might want to talk to you at break time but it will be okay."

"Thanks Uncle Dave. Miss Anderson is a real nice teacher and I know she really does care about me."

"So as long as you are very responsible with using the cell phone and do your best to keep it hidden and safe at all times, there shouldn't be a problem. We'll all do our best to help you make sure you dad and Aunt Jess never suspect but you need to keep it hidden from them and never let them catch you or see you using it. Do you understand?"

"Yeah, I understand and I promise I'll do my very best. Dad always tells me I can't do any more than try my very best. I promise to only use it to contact you guys. I'll keep it my back pack at all time and hopefully Miss Anderson will hold onto it for me at school to keep it safe but still let me change the battery."

"I'm sure she will Jack. Don't worry about Miss Anderson. We'll make sure she fully understands about everything and that she never tells anything to your dad or your Aunt Jess."

"Thanks Aunt J.J."

"Aunt Penny will sort the phone out with you later and show you everything but in the meantime we need to tell you about our plan…"

"You guys made a plan already?"

"Yeah, although Will and James here, and of course also Henry, don't know anything of the plan as we had to make it when we met up at work when your dad was in a meeting."

"So dad never got suspicious of you guys meeting up without him?"

"Nope. Both days we met up, your dad was always in a meeting so he was away from the BAU."

"Dad HATES meetings! Says their WAY too boring!"

"And they are Jack, that's for sure!" Matt smiled at Jack.

"So what's the big Uncle Dave? And what if it doesn't go well?"

"We're all just hoping neither your dad nor your Aunt Jess ever get a whiff of what we're doing. We are going to need a lot of help from you to pull this off as you will be our eyes and ears, so to speak and you can help set them up all the time. When we made each plan, of course we made sure there was someone who could take care of you as, in every plan, you had to come first. So each time we've planned a meeting or a date, there will be someone who will take you, either for sleepovers or a day out, that's if you're not at school so you never have to worry about being left alone as someone will always be taking care of you and be there for you, no matter what. And if your dad and or Aunt Jess find out, we'll make sure everything is okay and that no harm will come to you. That and if they lay one finger on you, we'll do the same to them. But I'm POSITIVE they would NEVER hurt you EVER!"

"I know they wouldn't Uncle Dave. Dad prefers nicer punishments like grounding, no TV, no treats, sitting in a corner thinking about what I've done, stuff like that. Mom was the one who spanked me if I ever did something really wrong. But neither Aunt Jess nor dad ever spank me and prefer other punishments that don't hurt, well not physically anyway…."

"You ever get scared of your dad or Aunt little man, you only have to call us and we'll be there to protect you. Even if us guys are on a case, there's Baby Girl, Will and James here to protect you from your Aunt Jess! And also to take you away away to safety. No harm will come to you. We promise."

"Thanks Uncle Derek. Thanks guys. But Aunt Jess is WAY too nice to want to hurt me but still its good to know…."

"And we'll do our VERY best to make sure neither your dad, nor your Aunt Jess, EVER get suspicious. They get even a whiff and we'll call everything off."

"Thanks for making sure there'll always be someone there for me too in every plan Uncle Dave…"

"Like we said Jack, YOU HAVE to come first and we'd all make sure you were never alone. We do need you to act surprised every time we make the offers to have you with one of us or Aunt J.J asks you for a sleepover with Henry. Can you do that for us? You act surprised and your dad and Aunt won't suspect a thing."

"I can do that. I promise. I'm a great little actor!"

"We know you are Jack. So we came with different ideas Jack of how we could get your dad and Aunt Jess together without them suspecting a thing. Each plan will need a lot of help from you."

"Sure Uncle Dave. I'll do ANYTHING you guys need me to. Just tell me what to do. And I'm very good at sending text messages, unlike dad, who is slower than me. Plus I can text shorthand…."

"As long as I can still understand the message it'll be fine. So don't make it TOO shorthand for me will you Jack?"

"Me too Jack. Like Dave here, I'm more old school…"

"Don't worry Uncle Dave. You too Uncle Matt. I'll make sure you read the texts!"

"Thank you Jack. So Dave you wanna tell him the first plan?"

"Before we start can I have another soda and a couple more cookies please?"

"Sure Jack, I'll go get the soda. Baby Girl get them both some more cookies."

"And Uncle Dave, where the erm….."

"Bathroom Jack?"

"Yeah."

"Come on I'll take you. Be right back guys."

"Can you take me too Uncle Dave? Then I won't need to go either when you tell us the plans for helping Jack."

"Sure Henry. Morgan get everyone more drinks. Can someone help whilst I help these 2 young men?"

"Sure Dave. Come on Morgan, I'll help you with the drinks." Matt stood up as Dave took the 2 boys out of the room and helped them both use the nearby bathroom. They returned to the living room just as Morgan and Matt returned with more drinks.

"I put a peanut butter and a chocolate chip on each of your guys' plates boys."

"Thanks Aunt Penny. Thanks Uncle Dave. I feel better."

"No problem Jack. Either of you guys need to go again just say and you can go use the bathroom."

Everyone who had stood up sat back down, everyone sitting in the same places, and Morgan and Matt handed out the second round of drinks before sitting down themselves, again in the same places as before.

"So what's the plan Uncle Dave?"

"Well we need to start getting them together so we figured we'd start getting them to be by themselves in different places before setting them on a first date at my mansion where you guys can help set the scene…."

"Cool."

The rest of the day was spent with everyone explaining every part of their plan to Jack, making sure he understood everything and then they all helped Garcia show him the cell phone, how to use it, how to change the battery, all the different batteries and basically everything possible to do with using the phone.

"How do I get it back to the apartment without dad seeing? I didn't bring my backpack with me."

"You know how I always have a backpack with me on soccer Sundays Jack?"

"Yeah." Dave always took a backpack with him when he hung out at Hotch's apartment so that he could keep his cell phone, wallet, change of clothes from any muddy clothes, and everything else he needed in it but it was never full.

"Well tomorrow when I see you for soccer and come back with you guys as normal, I'll bring the cell phone in my back pack along with a fresh battery and then I'll help sneak it into your back pack where it has to stay hidden. That be okay?"

"Yeah, thanks Uncle Dave. That'd be perfect."

"Kitten leave everything with me tonight and I'll make sure the cell phone is fully charged for tomorrow. Each of us, especially me and J.J will need to take a charger and a battery charger so that we can all charge Jack's cell phone batteries. J.J, you might be charging them the most as Henry will be doing most of the battery swops with Jack at school. That and you need to take 2 chargers so you can charge 2 batteries at a time if needed. Henry needs to take 2 batteries to Jack a day. Jack when you do the battery swops give Henry both the battery in the cell phone and the spare, even if you didn't use it. That way you can have fresh batteries every day."

"Okay Uncle Dave. Don't forget to talk to my teacher."

"We won't Jack. I promise."

"Sure Rossi. We don't mind. Plus it'll make it easier getting the batteries between Henry and Jack."

"I'll give you half the batteries J.J and I'll take the other half of the extra batteries. If possible we need to make sure that they are all fully charged at all times. Jack you have to let me know if the credit goes below say $15? I'll then top it up so that you always plenty of credit. But that first $50 should last you a while as most of the credit will be used for texting."

"Which is only 10 cents a text, so $1 will last you 10 texts. So you have the equivalent of 500 text messages you send with Dave's $50 phone credit."

"Even if you don't need it, I might put another $20 on every week or two so that you never run out of credit. Plus I'll see you on Sundays anyway and you'll be seeing at least J.J and Will whenever you spend time at Henry's house. That and you'll be seeing one of us when we take you so that your dad and Aunt can meet up or go on a date."

"Thanks Uncle Dave. You are too generous!"

"Not only will you be seeing one us regularly but I can always get message to you via Henry and you can do the same and get Henry to give us message, especially if something happens to the phone, the batteries run out or you need more credit. Henry can get a message to me or Will and we can make sure the problem is fixed or that the others get updated."

"So you'll always be able to contact one of us and us you should anything happen to the cell phone or you can't use it without getting caught."

"Thanks guys."

"And Dave, if you guys are out of town, I'll make sure Jack's phone always credit on it."

"Thanks James, though he shouldn't ever run out….."

"Yeah but if he runs low, there'll always be someone here who put credit on his phone for him, whether its me or you. So Jack, don't worry if the team is away on a case and you get a problem with either the phone, low credit, battery problems, whatever. I'll make sure the phone gets credit if you need it. Will will make sure battery problems are solved and we'll both be there to make sure any phone problems are fixed., won't we Will?"

"We sure will Jack. And when J.J's on a case with the team, I'll make sure you always have fresh cell phone batteries."

"What about soccer Sundays if Uncle Dave is away too?"

"I'll still see you at soccer with Henry and maybe I can take you out for pizza after the game so that you can change the battery and we can do the battery swop. It'll be okay. I'll make sure that if Dave's away you still get fresh cell phone batteries on soccer Sundays."

"Thanks Uncle Will. But what if you guys plan stuff and then dad has to go away on a case with you guys. The plans will be ruined."

"Then we just put everything on hold until we return Jack. If your dad's with us on a case he can't meet up with your Aunt Jess anyway!"

"Oh yeah. Forgot about that Uncle Dave. So you would put everything on hold and carry on when you guys returned?"

"Yeah. We would make sure that nothing happened for probably the first day or two after we got back so you and your dad could still spend that time together after being apart as we all know how much you guys miss each other."

"Thanks Uncle Dave. I know over the time we're trying to get dad and Aunt Jess married that I won't be able to spend as much time as I want with dad but it'll be great if for the day or two after a case, me and dad could spend a little time together before we carried on with the plans to get them married."

"We know how important you and your dad are to each other and we'll do everything we can to try and get you as much time with your dad as possible during this time we're trying to get them together. We'd never want to stop you and your dad from spending as much time as possible with one another as we know how little time you guys are already spending together."

"I'll even make sure he has EVERY weekend off completely free when he's in town. And we'd always try to give you guys the weekends together and try to plan everything during weekdays and evenings so that you guys would have the weekends together. Morgan, Alex, Spencer, you guys wouldn't mind covering Hotch's work at weekends would you if it meant he and Jack could at least have the weekends together through all this."

"Sure, we don't mind do we guys?" Morgan looked at Spencer and Blake.

"Course not."

"I'll even cover any Saturday work. I can't do Sundays as I have to be with Jack and Hotch but I can work Saturdays no problem, Matt."

"Thanks Dave. J.J I'd ask you except you deserve the same quality time with Henry as Hotch will have with Jack. I'll even cover any work the rest of you can't so that Hotch is never overworked."

"Thanks Matt. I appreciate you thinking of Henry as well."

"He is your son J.J, he needs you as much as Jack needs his dad."

Finally every plan possible had been made and Jack happily agreed to everything. They would start the next week to get Hotch and Jessica together and married and get Jack the happy family he so deserved….
