Hotch put his face in his hands after watching the woman he never should have married walk out of the waiting room. He couldn't believe that she had been having an affair. Well actually yes he could. What he couldn't believe is that she had the woman he truly loved kidnapped and almost killed. The more he thought about it the angrier he became. He could have lost Emily and his daughter all because of the woman who he now hated.

Emily let out the breath she had been holding for the last minute. Her face stung from where Hayley had slapped her but she wasn't worried about herself. She was more worried about the man who looked like he was about to lose it. Emily walked over to Hotch and removed his hands from his face and then stood up on her tip toes and kissed him lightly on the lips.

"Aaron don't beat yourself up over something you had no clue about." Emily said.

Hotch shook his head and looked at her with pain filled eyes. "How can you not blame me? It's because of me that you almost lost your life and our child's life. Why didn't I see what she was doing? How could I be so damn stupid?"

Elizabeth walked over and put her hand on Hotch's shoulder. "Aaron I may not like how things went down thirteen years ago and regardless of what I said to you earlier today I don't blame you. Your wife is a manipulator and it would have been hard to see what she didn't want you to see. Emily is alive and so is your daughter. You need to focus on that right now. Later on we will all sit down and talk about the past but right now you need to be strong for your daughter, for Emily and for yourself."

Hotch nodded and pulled Emily into his arms. It felt so right having her there. It had always felt right to him having her in his arms. He kissed the top of her head and started planning in his head how he could make up for the last thirteen years. Emily clung to Aaron like he was a lifeline. To her right now he was her lifeline. If she didn't have him beside her right now she wasn't sure she would be able to make it through this without completely breaking down.

Gideon was trying to come to terms with what he had just learned. He didn't blame Hotch for what happened thirteen years ago but he wanted everything thrown at Hayley. She deserved to rot in hell for what she had done to his daughter. He knew that right now he couldn't think about that. He needed to be in the here and now so that he knew his daughter and granddaughter were alright.

Penelope was vibrating with anger and even as Morgan tried to calm her down it just wasn't happening. Penelope made a promise to herself that she would look into Hayley's past and see if anything else pops up. She would make sure that Hayley paid for everything she had done to Emily.

Spencer was trying to comfort JJ while also keeping an eye on Emily. Even though he hasn't known Emily that long she has become like a sister to him. He was angry at everything he had just learned but he knew that anger wasn't going to solve anything especially right now. Spencer held JJ in his arms as she cried. Her heart was breaking at what she learned today about what Emily has been through.

Dave was angry and devastated. He knew that Hayley could be vindictive but he never knew just how mean and vindictive he could get. His heart broke for his Goddaughter. He had to smile though when he saw Emily leaning on Aaron. He couldn't help but think that one day they will end up back together. He knew how his Goddaughter thought so he knew that she still loved Aaron but she would want to take it slow and start from scratch. Not that he could blame her.

"Emily are you alright Sweetheart?" Hotch whispered into her ear.

Emily pulled back a little and looked up at him and gave him a sad smile. "I'm sorry that you found out the way you did. I promise we will sit down and talk sometime soon if that is what you want. Right now I just want your arms around me and I want to know that our daughter will be okay."

Hotch nodded and kissed the top of her head. "If our daughter is anything like our mother she will be fine. It may take a while but she will be alright."

Everyone gathered around Emily and Hotch just offering their support in letting them know that they are there. Gideon put his hand on Emily's back and Elizabeth put her hand on Hotch's back. Everyone looked up when they heard footsteps.

"The parents of Kia Prentiss?" a Doctor asked.

Emily and Hotch stepped out of the circle that they were in and went towards the Doctor with everyone else following them.

"We are her parents." Hotch said.

The Doctor gave a tired smile. "I'm Dr. Kennedy and I performed the surgery on your daughter. I had to set both of her legs which had compound fractures so she will be in cast for eight weeks and then she will have to go through some physical therapy. Thankfully her spleen was alright and we didn't have to remove it. I thought we might when I saw the swelling in her back. We re-inflated her lung. I also had to sew up where the knife had nicked her kidney when she was stabbed. We gave her two units of blood. We put her in a medical induced coma so that her body would have time to heal some. She has six broken ribs and a broken arm along with a concussion. She will be moved into recovery soon and then she will be transferred to the ICU."

Emily started crying and Hotch pulled her into his side as he asked Dr. Kennedy "When can we see her?"

Dr. Kennedy smiled. "As soon as she is in recovery I will have a Nurse come and get you."

Hotch and Emily nodded and Hotch said "Thank you Doctor."

Dr. Kennedy nodded and then left the waiting room. He had to smile when he thought that the girl he worked on was lucky to have two parents who so obviously loved her.
