JJ paced back and forth in the hall outside the court room the only sound to be heard was the clicking of her heels against the marble floor. They were due to start any minute and Spencer still hadn't shown up yet... Not that he needed to be...and not that he said he was coming... JJ was just assuming or rather hoping.

"J-Jennifer?" The voice was frail and female definitely not Reid. "I-I think we need to talk..." The voice belonged to Ashley Seaver Henry's nanny well ex-nanny.

"Ashley please I don't have time for this." JJ snapped.

"I married William!" The younger blonde blurted out. "After you left I fell pregnant and then we got married... A year later we had another child two girls; Lyndsey and Carmen... Seaver..."

JJ eyes widened had she left Will too? "You left him?"

"He left us... About a month ago."

"When he started calling asking for Henry back!"

"His parents weren't to fawned of him marrying 'the help' so he left, then something came up and he showed up at the house begging to take one of the girls... Claiming he doesn't want to live alone, but I wouldn't separate the girls I told him he could have both... He loved them and he would be able to take care of them better then I ever could but he only wanted one..."

JJ ran up to hug Ashley. "Thank you so much! I'm still mad you fucked my boyfriend, but you helped me get out, but my son was awake in the other room, but you just gave him back to me." JJ let her go looking in her eyes. "You'll get through it, you're a strong women Ashley."

JJ turned around to head back down the hallway to enter the court room and give Blake athe good news when she was stopped by the voice she had been waiting all morning for.

"Hey, JJ- so I was thinking maybe you and I could uh-" Before Spencer could get the rest of the words out a soft pair of lips captured his, he let out a low moan while he grabbed onto her hips. "What was that for?"

"I just won my baby back!"

"The trial is over?"

"Not yet!" JJ walked towards the door before stopping and turning on her heels. "What were you going to ask me?"

"I um I was going to ask if maybe we could go get dinner tonight... I was thinking about last night or well this morning and I do want to know you better Jenny."

"I want to know you too Spence, tonight at seven? If Henry doesn't come home tonight."

"Of course." Spencer smiled he pulled the door open for JJ then walked to his seat behind her. He watched as the blonde leaned over and whispered in Blake's ear explaining the new found 'evidence'.

Will was up on the stand answering all the questions Gideon asked, not that they were hard questions; "how long ago did you see your son?", "what prompted the original open relationship?" And so on... JJ watched Will for a moment his eyes would drift off to the back of the court room, the blonde turned to find Ashley was sitting in the back row tear stains in her blue eyes...

"Blake!" JJ whispered. "I think I figured it out,"

Blake nudged her to go on. "He really loves Ashley and leaving her was probably the hardest thing he ever had to do... But he wasn't given a choice, why do you think Gideon hasn't brought up the fact that Henry could be going to a loving and full family? Because no one knows."

"I'm not following JJ."

"Will and I got together for publicity reasons, my parents would have a daughter that could settle down and have a family, but what did the Lamontange's get out of it?"

Blake's eyes grew wide and I smile fell across her face. "A chance to merge with the number one family on the upper east side."

"No one would pass up a business opportunity with them... Except if the merger didn't go through because I certain starlet 'fled ' the country."

"But how does this relate back to him taking Henry and leaving Ashley?"

"Heart broken William Lamontange Jr. Drives himself into work in order to forget about the best two years of his life, that head line brings in business like no tomorrow, but it will only last for oh so long, because Henry doesn't exist to the world, no yet anyways. What happens when Jennifer comes back with her four year old son begging Will to raise him in the good life."

"Millions of sympathetic costumer's trying to help Henry get a better life." The case was coming together nicely and right in time as Gideon was close to ending. "But why only take one daughter?"

"He only really wanted the oldest, who is two, Will would claim her as my daughter and that I left pregnant. He could take the younger one as well and lie about her age, ha I both would be too many lies and one could eventually slip up."

"JJ this is perfect!"

Gideon had asked his last question then head back to his chair, Blake rose making her way towards Will.

"Mr. Lamontange, can you please tell me about your family?"

"It's just me, my mom and pop."

"I meant your family with Ashley Seaver."

A murmur broke out over the court room, Spencer sent JJ a look while she replied with a smile. "We got two daughters Lyndsey and Carmen."

"Are you and Miss. Seaver married?"

"Almost two years now, but we separated..."

"Now why on earth would you do that Mr. Lamontange? She seems like such a nice happy young lady."

"She is just things get complicated..."

"Complicated like your parents didn't approve? Or complicated like family business? But it all leads back to family doesn't it?"

"Yeah that's right..."

"The only reason you are putting Miss. Jareau through so many problems is because you're just doing what your parents asked. They need the world to feel sorry for you and how better to do that than to have you raise a child on your own, forget the beautiful daughters you already have, a two year old and a one year old right?"

"Yeah Lyndsey is older."

"You're not a bad guy Mr. Lamontange, you're just doing what your parents told you to do, you love Miss. Seaver very much, but she isn't JJ and that's what you need." Blake's voice was soft and full of empathy she was definitely good at her job.

"Alright I think I've heard enough," claimed Strauss. "I rule in favour of Miss. Jareau, she will receive full custody of Henry! But Mr. Lamontange is entitled to one weekend a month with his son allowing Henry to meet his half sisters. He will arrive tomorrow morning and be met by both parents to explain the new situation. Oh and Miss. Jareau you are expected to find a new job, case dismissed!" Strauss banged the gavel before leaving the room.

JJ jumped from her seat to hug Blake. "Thank you so much!"

"You're the one who figured everything out JJ, I just presented the case."

"She's right JJ you did amazing work today." Spencer wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her back into his chest. "Real detective work."

"Maybe that will be my new job?" JJ reached up the pat Spencer's cheek. "Officer Jareau?"

"Or you can come work for me?" Blake offered.

"Are you serious!?"

"I need a new assistant and you can be quiet persuasive."

She released herself from Reid's arms and ran to hug Blake again.

"Uh Cher- I mean Jay-Jay... Force of habit..."

JJ walked over to Will who had his arm around Ashley. "I'm still angry, extremely angry, but I never did see past what the relationship was doing to me... I can trust you two with Henry right?"

"Can we bring him a Christmas present?" Ashley pleaded.

"Tomorrow's Christmas Eve! Shit! Uh sure if you want too... I've got to go but I'll see you tomorrow." JJ took off out of the court room with Spencer hot on her heels.

"JJ what's wrong?" He huffed after she finally stopped running.

"I have nothing for tomorrow..."

"Don't worry the house was released yesterday so Elle, Derek and Garcia have been working on it to make it ten times better than when you left."

"You guys suck you know that?" JJ blushed pulling him into a hug.

"No I believe that's what you do..." JJ erupted in a fit of laughter.

"I can't believe you!" She slapped his shoulder as she pulled away.

"You know I meant what I said... Earlier about getting to know you better..."

"Good, you just entered the world of bat shit crazy are you ready?"

"I wouldn't ask for anything less."
