Meeting Beth in a cafe he got her a chai tea, then sat down. "Now correct me if I'm wrong Chai means tea, so I just ordered you a..."

"Tea, tea." She said, before he could. "So. Wait a minute. There's a chance you could be out on a case this weekend?" She asked.

"Probably a good chance." He responded answering her question.

"What if you don't make it back in time?" She asked.

"I'll just have to do another race." He answered that question to.

"But you trained for this one!"

"I know. I'll just have to do the next one. Maybe I'll do yours." He said smiling.

"But you trained so hard!"

"I know. All for nothing."

If Hotch did make it back however, Beth and Hotch arranged for her to be at the race, as she wanted to be there and Hotch wanted her to meet Jack.

In the Office, Prentiss, Garcia, Roxanne and JJ were in the briefing room. "Oh your not playing around." Prentiss said to JJ.

"Wills away all week, so I'm pulling double duty with Henry." JJ told them.

"Please tell me we are still on for Saturday night. I've had it circled in my calender for the last 23 days." Garcia said, hoping there plans for a girls night would not be ruined.

"Garcia payed good money for those salsa lessons." Prentiss said, feeling strangly nauseous and trying not to throw up infront of her collegues, figuring she better not take any chances she quickly exited, and headed to the ladies room, as Hotch, Rossi, Morgan and Reid entered.

"I would say let's get started... But we'll wait for Emily." Hotch said, sitting down. Garcia left, and went to find Emily, hearing sounds of someone throwing up she waited for her to come out of the cubical.

"Emily. You are ok... right?" She asked, concerned, last time she started randomly disapeering Ian Doyle was after her.

"I'm fine." Prentiss said, splashing her face with cold water.

"Wait. Em. Maybe pregnancy is contagious!" Garcia exclaimed.

"Woah. What? Who is pregnant?" She asked, not knowing about anyone on the team being pregnant.

"Roxanne..." Garcia said. Realizing Emily didn't know. "I was looking through her file, because she's been acting kinda weird lately right and she wasn't telling me anything, so as a good friend I decided I would find out what was going on myself." She explained, feeling awful now as Roxanne probably hadn't told anyone for a reason.

"Right, well I won't say anything until she says something to us." Prentiss said. "How far along?"

"11 weeks, nearing 12."

"Ok, well she'll tell us soon then." Emily said, as they headed back to briefing.

"Everything alright?" Hotch asked, as the two came back in.

"Yes." Emily replied, sitting back down at her seat.

"Ok, lets get started then." He commanded.

This time they were off tacking murdered prostitutes in Atlanta, stabbed and staged.

"Atlanta's crime rates have skyrocketed over the last few years." Roxanne pointed out, before Reid had the chance.

"Yes. Especially the proliferation of solicited sex and Drug use. in the downtown district" Reid continued, adding on from what had been said.

"Maybe this guy thinks he's cleaning up the city." Prentiss suggested, they had seen it before. It did however seem the unsub showed some sort of remorse and there was no sex prior to the murder, so what was the unsub doing to them?

"Both of the victims had $250 on them when they were found." Prentiss said, flicking through pictures on her tablet. "Why didn't the unsub take that?"

"It's a lot to pass up, Money must not be on his mind." Rossi said, making an attempt at answering.

It was clear that the dumping grounds seemed to have been from the city, each 40 minutes outside of the city and 50 minutes apart, it spoke to his comfort zone, either that or he didn't want to risk getting recognized.

While the team was on the Jet another body had been Discovered, this time a missing persons report had been filed, by her friend, Allyson Parker.

Having found three victims, there seemed to be a pattern in the geographical profile. Centered around Ridgecrest, a bedroom Community, white collar area. JJ and Prentiss came back, telling the team of the Van Allyson had seen, which had been there before and was parked in a loading bay for hours. There was a possibility of finding this van, by seeing if there were any tickets. Unfortunately nothing.

The money still seemed rather confusing, as with the contrast between the murder and how the body was dumped. Multiple unsubs, either that or multiple personalities.

The next day, yet another body was found. The shortest time yet between kills. Often this style was refrered to as a thrill kill, which is why the cooling off period was practically non-existant.

When the team realized Julie, (The latest victim)was a sexual surrogate, this changed everything. Reid figured, due the the bruising on the victims thighs, the UNSUB may be in a wheelchair, that would also explain the van parked in the loading zone.

Looking back over at the victims, Julie was different. Each UNSUB was at their most extreme. "Everything about the way they are disposed is nurturing, but your right, Julie was wrapped in plastic, it's neat." Prentiss mentiond.

JJ suggested the caretaker was a woman, by nature, women practice cleaner disposal methods. However they were still uncertain as the terrain was pretty rough and this submissive unsub had to be pretty strong.

Talking it through, they realized a third person was involved and the only way that could work was if it was a family. Mother, father and son. This had to have happened before, atleast once, finding that incident would lead them to the unsubs.

Garcia found that incident. "A co-ed at Georgia state stabbed and left in a park, 5 years ago." She said over the phone, to the rest of the team who were standing around in the field office. Continuing the conversation, they got Garcia to do some more searches to try and find the family in question, by checking student enrollment for that year, for students with handicap permits.

The list being over 200 it needed narrowing down. Prentiss told her. "The Parents would have covered it up, and they would have pulled their son out of school after the murder." She finished, trying not to throw up again around the team, otherwise they really would start questioning and probably worry.

"Eureka, Jeffrey Collins." Garcia told them, that having narrowed it down to only one match and sent over the address.

On the way to the Collins' house, they were notified of a Crash, involving the father. Donald Collins, died on impact, confessed to all four murders. Prentiss was relived they could get out of the car, as she had started to feel really sick again, taking a second to breathe she had managed to calm her nausea down so people didn't start interrogating. "Even in death, he's still covering for his son." He said, reading the letter. It seemed like suicide, his end game.

JJ, Rossi and Morgan were the ones who reached the Collins house, just in time by the seems of things, It seemed uncertain for a while and unfortunatly Linda had to be shot at, but the others were safe.

"Still no sitter?" Prentiss asked, resuming her seat on the plane, next to Reid.

"Apparently there is more chance of winning the Lottery and getting a sitter on a Saturday night." JJ said, sighing. "Anyway how are you? Because if your not up to it... we can postpone." JJ said, knowing Emily hadn't been feeling great lately.

"Oh No. I'm fine."

"I could sit. Reid said, I'm keeping an eye on Dana, and she doesn't really need much attention. I've seen an episode of Mr Belvadore." He said, offering. "As long as you don't mind Roxanne... and JJ. Dana could stay at JJ's, and I could watch them both?" He asked.

"Well I don't mind." Roxanne said.

"That's fine with me to Spence, as long as you can handle it." JJ said knowing he hadn't babysat on his own before.

"Great! Glad to be of help!" He exclaimed. "What could possible go wrong?" He asked, when noticing the girls disbelieving glances.

And Spencer was right, nothing could go wrong. Ok actually quite a lot could have gone wrong. Dana could have set fire to JJ's house or I don't know. Reid may have allowed Henry too much sugar giving him a sugar rush. Many things could have gone wrong but realistically, they wearnt going to and they didn't, even though he was sitting until 2am. Not just "A couple of hours." As Prentiss had said.

The next morning was Hotch's face, Emily, JJ and Garica all had huge hangovers but still came to support Hotch, not that they were the best company though. Roxanne was the only one who hadn't drank a huge amount of alcohol the night before. Hotch fin9shed the race strongly, and in good time, looking like he could do it all over again, as he ran through he finish line.

"You did it!" Jack exclaimed excitedly running over to his dad. The rest of the team also congratulated him.

"Pretty impressive, I had money on the swim killing you." Prentiss said smiling, knowing Hotch was not the best of swimmers when it came to long distances.

"I practiced." He said.

"And it payed off, good job." Morgan said, proud of Hotch for achieving a triathlon.

"Hey you guys want something to eat?" He asked after thanking morgan.

Everyone agreed, and stood there with eyes of shock as they heard someone calling Hotch's name, and then him introducing Jack to her.

"Beth." Rossi said, being the only one who knew for sure.

"Ah. Beth, Nice name." Roxanne replied "That would be why Hotch has been a little more friendly lately." He had a girlfriend, always seems to make the men go soft. "Anyway guys, I have some news." She said, leaving Hotch out of it as she had already told him a couple of weeks ago.

Emily and Penelope knew what she was going to say but the others were quite unsure. "I'm pregnant." She said, smiling.

"Wow! Congrats. Who knew my fuck buddy from eight years ago would get married and start a family of her own!" Morgan exclaimed, pleased for her.

"Watch it Morgan." She replied, trying to sound angry but making a pathetic attempt of it. Everyone had picked up they'd had history but it didn't mean she liked talking about it.

"Congrats darling. I thought you couldn't!" Prentiss said, pretending she didn't already know, trying to sound shocked and hugged her.

"So did I!" Roxanne exclaimed excitedly.

"Congrats Rox!" Garcia said excitedly, but trying to keep the noise down.

"Congratulations!" JJ said, again trying to keep the noise down.

"Congratulations." Reid also said. "So you had no more than say 5 units of alcohol last night?" He asked.

"No Reid, no more than 4." She said.

"Which would explain why your not hungover. I thought something was a little suspisious." Rossi said before congratulating her. Wait Hotch knows right?" He asked.

"Yes... Hotch knows, I told him a few weeks ago." Roxanne said, still smiling.

"Ok This is Beth." Hotch introduced her to the team, as he came back over to them, and they all headed to grab something to eat.
