The team was on another case this time it was harder then it looked. Franki stared around the area it was hot and sticky. She was kind of thankful that Morgan someone had gone into her bag and stolen her bandages and hidden them from her. She was left to her combat boots, pants and tank top.

They were going after a pair of unsubs. They had to find them and the missing girl. A few shots were and the sounds of screaming were heard. Franki went to run around the side and fell eight feet into a sink whole. The shooting was followed by two sets of tires as they drove off. "Son of a bitch."

"Later that day back at the police station with one half if the terrorizing duo Reid noticed someone was missing. "Where's Franki?" He asked. In the commotion of it all no one had noticed that the younger agent was missing. They were busy trying to find the other unsub. "Oh crap." One of the Officers who had been sent out with Franki exclaimed as he remembered where the woman was.

Franki sat at the bottom of this hole for six hours and had sunburn. She was dirty and she was pissed off. Franki heard the roar of an engine and a door slammed shut. "Franki?"

"Down here. Round the back." She called out. Morgan, JJ and Rossi stood looking into the whole. "Reid why are you standing all the way over there?" Morgan asked. "Because Rossi left me in a ditch he might just push me into this one." Reid said. "One of us in a ditch is enough Reid." Hotch said as he walked over and looked down. "Just get me out of here." Franki called up. "First throw up your gun." Rossi said. "Give me the rope old man."

"Give me your gun first." Franki took her gun off and threw in out of the hole no sooner then she had done so the rope was thrown down giving her a chance to climb out. Morgan took her hand and helped pull her out. Franki was covered in a thin layer of dirt and was slightly red. "Agent Pantino I am so very sorry." The officer who she had been with said. Franki growled and was going to attack the man when Morgan stopped her. "Don't do it."

"Here you'll want that." Reid handed her gallon of water and the woman took it from him happily to drink her fill. (The whole damn thing) Emily say the officer getting ready to say something but was saved by Emily. "This crap hurts like hell." Franki glared at her angry red skin. "You look like a lobster." Garcia smiled. "You are so lucky your not here right now. It hurts like hell." Franki glared.

"I Found this little guy it's an-"

"Aloe Vera plant. Reid I'd hug but later." Franki cut one of the thick leaves off and began to softly apply to her skin. "Reid you are awesome." Franki smiled. "Still say you're a lobster."

"If only I had my gun." she glared.

It was Saturday the week after Franki's birthday. This time there was no forgetting it and Garcia decided to be the best sister ever and put a cake on the agent's desk. In celebration of her Birthday Soren was going to make Franki dinner and crake open a bottle of wine for them. They were still at the stage of hand holding and kissing talking on the phone and checking in on each other every now and again when they were working.

They knew they were in love but how far was about to be put to the test. Soren cooked a marvelous meal and made desert, which the two shared, over the bottle of wine. They weren't drunk not by half. Soren went to reach for Franki's shirt but she stopped him. "Don't do that." She whispered. "What?"

"You'll only want to run away." Franki said. "Allow me to be the judge of my actions." Franki let him left her shirt over her head and he looked at every scar covering her stomach. "A really strong woman accepts the war she went through and is ennobled by her scars." Soren said. Franki knew he was the man for her and kissed him.

It was hot and it was sticky and no one liked it. Everyone was getting together for a movie night. Chinese and pizza few beers and everyone was gathering at Franki's house. Everyone would start arriving at five so the woman had started cleaning at three and finished at a quarter to four. Franki kicked on some music and went to take a shower.

"Are you sure we can just enter her house like this?" Reid looked to Morgan. "Yeah besides can you hear the music she can't a thing in there." Morgan told him. They stopped in the living room at the sight before them. Franki had her back turned to them with her eyes closed and dancing in a towel. "I'm so telling Garcia about this."

Franki turned around and screamed. "Get out of my house." She yelled running past them and up the stairs. "Get out of my house." She yelled again. A moment later Franki ran down stairs in shorts and a tank top. You tell anyone and I swear I kill you. It's only 4:48 why are you even here?" She asked.

"To see if you needed any help moving anything." Reid said. "Doesn't look like you do." Morgan snickered behind his hand. A few minutes later Garcia and Kevin showed up at her door followed by Emily. JJ and Will came a few moments later. Hotch showed up at around five thirty and Rossi had arrived not long after him.

Gypsy and Jinx watched the guest from the stairs. When the doorbell rang JJ got up thinking it was Chinese. "Um hi. Is Franki in?" the man asked. "Frank there's someone here for you?" JJ called into the living room. Franki jumped up with the largest smile you would ever see on the woman's face. Franki attacked her boyfriend with a hug and a kiss. "Well hello to you to." He smiled.

"Get your stuff and come on in. No one is going to bite so don't worry." She assured him. Soren joined them in the living room a minute later a bag in one hand a pillow in the other. "Soren this is JJ her husband Will, Morgan, Emily, Rossi, Hotch, Garcia and her boyfriend Kevin. Everyone this is Soren my boyfriend." Franki smiled.

"Nice to meet you." Soren smiled. "Sup."

"Hey." I knew you would make the perfect couple." Garcia smiled. "Hi."

"So how long has this been going on?" Reid asked.

"Who cares she's dating good enough for me?"

"Hello." JJ and will greeted him. "Hello." Hotch said. The doorbell rang again. Pizza arrived and twenty minutes later the Chinese food. Soren stood alone to the side watching everyone set plates his own in his hand. "So what movie are we watching first?" Will asked. "How you holding up?" Franki asked. "I feel out of place. Maybe I should go." Soren looked around.

"No don't do that. They don't know here to start with this. Considering they know my past and this unit is like a family. It would be like if you had a daughter and she suddenly brings home a boyfriend for you to meet." Franki said. "Garcia is easy t talk to start with her or you can try Will. It'll be an icebreaker. Or you can try talking to Rossi he's not a chef but he can cook and makes his noodles from scratch." Franki told him.

"Alright everyone into the living you spill it you clean it." Franki told them. They put on the Hangover and Reid was forced to keep his mouth shut. When the movie ended bathroom breaks were taken and refills on food were acquired. "So Rossi Franki tells me you cook. Anything you enjoy making?" He asked. "I don't have a favorite dish I just enjoy the cooking. I learned from watching my mother in the kitchen. You'll have to try it sometime." Rossi told him. "So what do you do?" Dave asked.

"I'm a chef at a restaurant across town. I've been working there for three years now and really enjoy the work." Soren smiled. "Okay next movie up is Zorro the gay blade. This has Garcia written all over it." Hotch shook his head. "But you have to admit this movie is funny." Emily smiled. Franki sat on the couch carting her fingers through Soren's hair. Soren didn't mind in the least. Everyone noticed but didn't say anything.

They saw the little movements and small kisses whispers of I love you. "By the time the movie was over everyone got up again. Food was put away and beer was collected. The night was still young on a Saturday. "The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy?" Kevin asked. "I like my British people." Franki smiled. "I thought you like me." Soren frowned.

"No, I love you, I like them. That a very thick line." Franki smiled as she pressed a kiss to the man's temple. "By the time the movie over everyone was laughing. "Okay how about we play a game of hide and seek?" Garcia suggested. "Why hide and seek?" Will asked. "Because playing hide and seek is the best game ever. That and we sure as hell aren't playing truth or dare. We did that at Garcia's last movie night and lets say you shouldn't allow such things to happen." JJ said.

"Fine Hotch is it and all the lights go out. Hotch count to thirty." Emily hit the lights and everyone scattered. Emily had hidden in bathroom. Garcia was hiding in the laundry room. Will and JJ were in a closet. Franki was under her bed. Morgan was in the bedroom closet. Rossi was in the basement. Reid made himself fit inside the dryer. Soren was behind the chair in the living room. Kevin was in the kitchen cupboard.

Hotch found Garcia, then Emily, Rossi was the next to be found, Soren had to come out of hiding next, Kevin was found followed by JJ and Will, Morgan then Franki. Reid had won the game. "Reid you win come out of hiding." Hotch called. They heard the sound of knocking and followed it to the laundry room. "He really fit inside of there." Will looked at bit confused as Reid unfolded himself.

"I really wonder about you sometimes Reid." Emily joked. Two more rounds were played and this time they included the out doors. By two that morning everyone claimed the floor couch or chair with blankets and pillows and went to sleep. The next day everyone had breakfast before getting dressed and chilling out a bit longer. "You two are so adorable." Garcia smiled because it had been her genius that helped nudge the two together.

As everyone left around late afternoon Morgan stopped to talk to Soren. "She's like a little sister to me and that makes you an honorary family member. You make her happy. But you hurt her and you better believe I'll be the first person you see." Morgan shook Soren's hand before walking out the door.

"I may look harmless but I can do things to your life you would never believe. I can destroy it with a few clicks of a key board understand?" Soren nodded. "You have to join us again next time this was fun." She smiled walking out of the door with Kevin. Hotch put on his best glare, which made Soren stood tall with his shoulders back and spine as straight as a rod. "Hurt her an you'll be getting a visit from me." He said.

After losing Elle, almost losing JJ, Reid being kidnapped and Franki almost meeting her end he was going to make sure someone paid for the crime. Emily smiled as she walked over to Soren and hugged him. "Hurt her and you'll see what the barrel of a gun looks like." She smiled as she walked out the door. "JJ said something along the same lines and Will agreed to help her. Reid was the last to leave.

"You know until Franki joined the team I was the youngest member so everyone treated me kinda like a kid. But I'm not but they still do even when Franki is around us. She's my little sister and I will tell you like this hurt her and I know how to hide a body so it can never and I mean never be found." Reid smiled before leaving waving to Soren and Franki as he went.

"Soren why do you look so pain?" Franki asked her. "They did it didn't they. Threatened you with death if you hurt me? We're a family we do that for each other. It's because I'm the youngest and we're trying to keep ourselves out of the line of further fire she said. We've all suffered from this job. Last night was one of the many nights we use to loosen up from life. Have fun and forget about what we've seen. In a way we're victims when we try to help everyone else who is a victim." She said.

"I could never hurt you. You're to good to me. If you go then I think I'd follow right behind you because my heart would ached to much." Soren smiled.
