Danny's POV

Well it's been almost five months since Samantha did her disappearing act on us. And I have to say my feelings are mixed. I mean I am angry that she left, angry for a lot of things she did before hand as well, but I am also a little worried about her. I know she can handle herself. God, she's taken beatings before that even I wouldn't have. She has also beaten up on people that I wouldn't have, so in that respect I know she is all right.

But she is pregnant and needs looking after. No one and I mean no one has seen her since that Friday she left here without a word. We received the letter on the Monday and haven't heard a word since. Jack told us that she had moved from her apartment, which I thought was rather strange. She loved that apartment. It was finally something she could call hers.

You see Samantha didn't have the greatest of lives before she arrived in New York. Her and I became very close friends when we were at the academy together. Hit it off straight away on the first day. She would come to me with anything which is why I am surprised she is hiding from us now.

Her life in Wisconsin was a bad one. Her father left when she was really young and from then on a string of her mothers boyfriends were, lets just say, less than friendly towards her. She tried to run away time and time again but she was always found. Until she was eighteen and managed to make it to New York where she decided to join the FBI. And from then on she has been the strongest person I know.

When Martin died I was shocked by her behaviour. It just wasn't her and that's why I got angry with her. She just didn't seem to care. Jack and Viv know something but aren't telling me anything. They say she'll tell me all in her own good time. I just wish it would be soon. I miss her, even though I am angry with her.

End POV

"Danny, Viv, my office now!" Jack's voice bellowed through the bullpen. Danny looked at Viv, who only shrugged. They both walked into his office and stood in front of his desk. "I received this today. Thought you may want to read it too." Jack handed a simple piece of white paper to Viv, who began reading.

"What does it say?" Danny asked, like an impatient child, looking over her shoulder.

Viv started to read the letter out loud. "Dear Uncle Jack, Auntie Viv and Uncle Danny, Hi my name is Ben and I am now officially six days old. My mommy says I am a bruiser as I weighed in at 9lbs 6ozs when I was born last week. She says she sorry that she has been gone for such a long time but she hopes that you will understand why. She is asking if you will come to our new apartment on Saturday night (she even says she'll cook) so that you can meet me and she'll explain it all. I hope you can all come. Our new address is 1642 Apartment 2 West 101st.

Hope to see you soon love and cuddles from Ben (and his mommy)" Viv finished the letter with a smile on her face. "I am glad he's here. I hope she's all right."

"So, are we going to go?" Danny asked.

"Of course we are, and when we get there Danny we are not going to question her and beat into her like we did before she left are we?"

"No Jack, we're not." Danny said, even though he wanted to.

"It's not what she needs right now, and as the letter says she is going to explain everything. That's what we need to do for her, is just be there to listen." Jack told the young agent.

"Can Samantha cook?" Viv asked jokingly.
