A/N: I am so sorry it has been awhile it has been a rough 4 months. I was in Ohio as a caregiver for my grandma unfortunately after everything and all the improvements she passed away a few days before Christmas. I have 3 chapters this time but if there are mistakes please don't mind. Thanks for still reading Ashley
Flashback
Sitting at Hotch's desk she was staring at the blank paper before her she had just finished her letter to Hotch and was trying to figure out what to say to jack.
"Dear Jack,
I know you are going to be sad to hear this but I am leaving for a while. It will probably be a long while. I know you hate hearing this but there are some adult things I have to take care of. I don't want you to think that because I am gone it means that I don't love you anymore. You are still one of the best little kids I know. I will always be watching out for you. I will just be doing it away from you for now. I will always be your aunt P. You didn't do anything to cause me not to be there. You are an amazing little man and I want you to be good for your daddy he is going to be sad too. He is going to need you to be brave and happy even though I am not there. I will be watching out for you and you will see me again. I am not sure when but until you do know I love you little man. Take care of your dad and aunt jess.
Love,
Aunt Penny"
Quantico (day after incident)
Looking over at jack she asked "How would you like to go get henry and we can all spend some time at the Zoo?" Getting a yes out of him she quickly made her way to a house she thought she had seen for the last time.
Knocking on the door she was afraid to see who would be answering. Thankfully Sara, Henry's babysitter, was the one who answered the door. " Hey Penelope. How are you it has been a long time. I thought you were on a trip out f town?" Looking at her Penelope was careful how she answered "I am just back for a few days to visit I know the team is outta town but I was hoping I could take henry to the zoo with us." Sara quickly smiled "sure. JJ never minds when you get henry. Henry come get your shoes on you are going out!" Penelope smiled when she heard his feet running toward the door. As soon as he seen her he threw himself into her arms. "Penny! Mommy said you were gone and wont be back for a long long time." "Hey godbaby. Your mommy told you what she knew. I am back to visit sooner than I thought. But it will be a while before you see me after this. I still have to go away again."
"Thanks Sara. We will be back in a bit."
Putting both boys in the car she started talking "So I was thinking the zoo then some food. Maybe at Pizza world?" Both boys starting bouncing up and down "PIZZA WORLD PIZZA WORLD!" they chanted together.
After leaving the zoo Penelope decided to see if Jessica wanted to meet them at Pizza World. When it was confirmed time for the meetup they went to the restaurant.
" Hey Jessica." She said looking nervous
Jessica smiled and pulled her in for a hug "So glad you called." She pulled back and frowned at Penelope " We WILL be talking though."
