A few weeks later, Benaiah was becoming really close with Tatum. He was finding comfort in the fact that they'd both been victims in a way and that they'd both been forced to do terrible things that neither one wanted to do. Other than that, they didn't talk much about their pasts. They just played a lot of video games and talked about the future. Tatum liked to look forward towards the future, and Benaiah tended to agree.

It's true that Benaiah and Tatum didn't really talk about there pasts much, but when Tatum slept over at Benaiah's house it was inevitable. Especially after Tatum couldn't sleep because of the smell of Derek's lingering cologne from when he had stopped earlier. It was the exact same cologne that his Tío wore.

Tatum was shuddered inside of his sleeping bag that was on top of the air mattress. It pained Benaiah to listen to his friend suffering and even though they had made an agreement to not talk about the past, Benaiah just had to ask.

"Tate, what's wrong?"

"I can't." Tatum uttered

Benaiah breathed out, "After what happened with my uncle when I came home, I used to jump from the sound of a knock on the door. I still jump sometimes, but mostly if someone pounds on the door."

Tatum swallowed, "Your Uncle Derek's cologne. I haven't smelled it in years. My Tío used to wear it. I can still smell it in the house right now."

Benaiah climbed out of his bed and opened his closet. He pulled out a can of spray.

"What's what?" Tatum wondered

"It's air freshener. It'll make the room smell like flowers." Benaiah explained, "Kind of girly, I know. But it makes me happy. I thought maybe it would help you too? Is that okay?"

Tatum nodded, "Yeah."

Benaiah sprayed a little of the air freshener in his room and then placed the car back in his closet before climbing back into his bed.

"Goodnight Tate."

"Goodnight Ben."

Tatum breathed in the floral scent of the air freshener as he smiled. He didn't know why, but it reminded him of his biological mother Athena, who he missed very much. He was being raised by his adoptive mother and step-mother. Tatum pushed those thoughts and just focused on the happy memories of his mother. He closed his eyes as he kept breathing, in and out, in and out. Eventually he was fast asleep and dreaming about his mother singing to him and calling him 'Baby bop'.

Meanwhile in Mexico, an American vacationer from Seattle sees Henry and Marquis at a restaurant in town. Recognizing Henry from the news, this Good Samaritan calls the police. By the time that the police arrived, Marquis and Henry were gone, but the witness was able to give them a really good description of both Marquis and Henry.

The Mexican police did some investigating and matched the sketch of the boy to missing person's fliers and found that he was almost an exact match to Henry Grey-Montgomery, so they called the family.

At the Grey-Montgomery residence, Meredith and Addison are having dinner with their kids when the home phone rings.

"Hello?" Meredith answered the house phone

"Hi Mrs. Grey-Montgomery, this is Captain Garcia. I'm with the Mexican police. I'm calling to let you know that we may have found your missing son Henry Grey-Montgomery."

Meredith sighed relieved, "Thank you so much. We'll be there as soon as we can" She looked over at her wife, who was sitting beside her, and mouthed, "They think they found Henry."

-Twelve hours later-

After flying out of Seattle on the red-eye and a five hour layover in Los Angeles, the Grey-Montgomery family finally landed at the Mexican airport where they were greeted and escorted by the Mexican police. The whole drive Meredith and Addison are anxious to see their son. The anticipation almost killed them.

Upon arriving at the police station, Addison and Meredith found Henry sitting at waiting for them and Marquis locked in a jail cell. Amelia had come with them and was at a hotel with the other kids.

"Henry, baby." Addison called

"Mama!" Henry exclaimed as he ran and hugged Addison. Then he hugged Meredith, "Mommy!"

Meredith hugged him back, "Oh baby, I missed you so much. How are you?"

"Papí took good care of me." Henry said

Addison raised her eyebrows, "Papí?"

Henry nodded as he pointed to the man in the jail cell. Then he looked up at his mothers, "Mommies, why did the police arrest Papí?"

Addison and Meredith glanced at each other, before turning back to Henry. "Well Henry," Meredith started, "He committed a crime because he took you here without mine and Mama's permission."

"But I don't understand. Why didn't I know Papí before? He loves me so much." Henry replied

Addison forced a smile, "Because Mommy and I didn't know him. Now let's go to our hotel and sleep. Tomorrow we'll come back here."

Henry nodded and ran off to say goodbye to Marquis.

Meredith turned to Addison with a raised eyebrow, "Really? Are we really going to make a deal with the man who kidnapped our son?"

"Let's just take it on step at a time." Addison said, "After all that man is Henry's biological father. If we cut him out of Henry's life, Henry will grow up to think something is wrong with him."

Meredith sighed, "You're right. I don't want our son to think that about himself."

Henry ran back and rejoined his mothers, taking one of their hands in one of his.

"Okay. I'm ready to go now, Mommies." Henry announced
