'Handsome, I know it is the best to stay in bed like this but it's 7 o'clock Monday! That makes it the longest I've ever stayed in bed with a man but we have work!'

Derek groaned.

'Don't you dare, I think we need to share our little treasures with our nearest and dearest's.'

'You actually think they'll believe us?'

'Not at first, they probably will think I photo shopped it!'

'Ha ha yeah probably.' He turned over to look at her. 'So how we going to do this?'

'Well I was thinking we go our separate ways, you go in and do your thing raise a few questions...'

'Talk to Hotch?'

'Oh yeah that too.' She laughed. 'Then I'll come in and give you a box and say it's a gift.'

'Of the photo?'

'Exactly and then do whatever you want.'

'I like it. It'll definitely raise some eyebrows from our family.' He laughed and got up stopping in front of her completely naked. 'Shower baby girl?'

'Hmm can I resist?' She sat up and looked at him teasingly. 'Oh definitely not.'

------------------------------------------------------------

'See you later baby girl.' He kissed her head before heading his direction. Walking in he went straight to his desk. 'Morning you two.'

'Morning.'

Morgan sat smiling. 'How was your weekend then?'

'Average.' Reid said looking up from his file.

'Yeah mine was pretty boring too.' Emily agreed. 'Pickup any girls?'

'I did indeed but I don't know.'

'Ahh okay. But did you have fun?'

'I had an eventful weekend.' He stood. 'I'll be right back.' He walked to Hotch's office, knocked and waited for the boss man to call him in. When he was in he closed the door and walked in putting his hands on the back of one of the chairs. 'Sir, can we have a talk?'

'Of course Morgan, everything okay?'

'I hope it will be. I need to talk to you about the frat rules and a possible transfer...'

'You and Garcia finally!'

'How did you guess?'

'It's written all over your face Morgan. Frat rules abolished, both you two mean too much to the B.A.U for us to lose, just as long as you keep out of the office and you need to promise to treat her right. I swear if you hurt her I will hurt you.' He said with a fatherly smile.

'Got it dad.' He smiled back, things were going to plan. 'And thanks.' He straightened up and headed for the door but stopped and turned. 'Oh and we have a surprise in a bit.'

'A surprise?'

'Yeah huge shocker.'

Hotch raised his eye brow but thought he would leave it there. He knew Morgan wouldn't let on.

When Morgan walked down the stairs there was Penelope sitting in his chair comfortably.

'Hey handsome.'

'Hey baby girl. What do I owe this honour?'

'I was lonely. Thought I would see how everyone's weekend went. How was yours?'

'It was okay.'

'He picked a girl up Garcia.'

'Oh really? A keeper?'

'I don't know.' He leant down and grab the box. 'What's this?'

'Open it and see.'

'It's not dirty is it?'

'Would I ever do a thing like that?'

'YES!' Emily and Reid said in joint union.

'Okay I would but you'll like it.' She then just turned and left.

'You going to open it then?'

He sat and opened the box up. 'How the hell?' He looked at the frame inside, somehow Penelope Garcia had found a double photo frame and put their child hood them in one side and their adult them in the other. In both pictures they were holding hands smiling happily whilst in each other's company. 'I'll be right back.' He left the photo on the desk and just walked out the door.

Emily sat up out of curiously. 'What you recon it is?'

'It's photos.' Reid said. 'Do we look?'

'Just a quick peep, no touching.'

They both got up and looked down at the photo. 'Oh my God. You don't think?'

'Can't be.' Reid looked at Emily. 'Surely?'

--------------------------------------------------------------

'So baby girl how did you do it?'

'Do what?' Penelope said as she turned in her chair innocently.

'Where do you get the time?'

'I have my ways handsome.' She said smiling. 'Did you like it?'

'Oh shit! I left it out.'

'Oh don't worry its fuelling the fire.' She laughed as he took her hand.

'I think we should share.'

'Yeah me too.'

------------------------------------------------------------

'I take it you looked?'

'What are you talking about?'

'The pictures... I know you looked, I don't mind.'

'Okay we did. What's it all about.'

'Erm... Pen I think you need to start this with Friday.'

'Friday?'

'Well, I received a box on Friday. Derek turned up and stuck around while I opened it. I thought it was a care package but when I opened it, it wasn't. Instead there were boxes upon boxes of my parents stuff. My brother had sent me bits and pieces, like a locket I haven't seen since I was 10, some journals, ballet shoes, jewellery, a note from my mom and some photos.' She looked at them, Hotch and Rossi had joined the group now. 'Well there was one picture that was ripped and I was pretty confused about it, it had on the back San Diego 1986, and Penelope an. The rest was ripped off.'

'I commented saying I went San Diego the same year we joked about it and Pen invited me to hers for a relaxing evening and during the day it clicked with me. When I got home I found what I needed and headed off.'

'Let's just say it was the biggest shock ever! This man here and yours truly have met before.'

'Oh my god, really?'

'Yes, Pen and me met in San Diego, 1986 and became friends. We spent 2 weeks together, never leaving each other alone.'

'Eaasy terms, we were like we are now but in child form.'

'You got to be kidding up.'

'Nope.' Derek said passing the photo frame over to the disbelieving hands of the team. 'I remember everything about that holiday, Pen had become my best friend in such a short time.'

'Derek here comforted me when my brothers were horrible, we laughed, he waited for in the morning.'

'Why didn't you just keep in contact?'

'Complicated, my brothers wouldn't allow it so we just had to say our goodbyes.'

'Now we realise why when we 'first' met here we were instantly comfortable with each other.' Derek shifted closer to Penelope.

'You're the girl.' Emily said with a smile. 'Is she a keeper?'

'She is indeed.' He put his arm around Penelope.

'It's been an emotional weekend I can tell you that. A lot of truths.'

'Oh yeah?'

'Yeah, not from Derek and me but also from my parents.' She looked at them all. 'There was note in the box dated the day before they died, it was from my mom and had loads of pages in it from my diary, poems, photos. She even mentioned Derek in the letter. That's how much that one week impacted my life.'

'Well it seems you two were meant to be.' Penelope smiled at this thought. 'I bet they were the best shockers of your life?'

'Oh most definitely. I now have everything I have ever wanted because of them.'
