Derek Morgan was concerned for his friend and Unit Chief Aaron Hotchner. He couldn't think of a reason why that Aaron would leave Haley and take Jack with him. As far as he knew the couple were happy and in love. For him to only send Emily to the team and not come himself, he knew that something was seriously wrong and that Hotch couldn't count on Haley to watch Jack.

They had just landed after finishing the case in Milwaukie and headed straight to the BAU where Morgan was going to call Hotch and figure out what was going on. Getting off the elevator, Morgan walked to his desk and put his bag down before grabbing his phone. Stepping into the hall, he dialed the number for his friend and hoped that he answered. He let out a sigh of relief when Hotch picked up, "Hey Morgan. Are you back in town?" Morgan nodded even though he knew that Hotch couldn't see him, "Yeah we just got back. I know it is kind of late, but can we meet? I know that something serious is going on and I'm getting worried Hotch." Hotch let out a sigh and agreed, "Yeah sure. I'll text you the address. I'll see you soon. Bye Morgan."

Morgan hung up and went back to his desk to grab his bag and car keys, "Hey guys, I am going to go ahead and head out. I've got to go do something. I'll see you guys later." Waving to his teammates, Morgan quickly left the bullpen and headed for the elevator. While he was waiting, he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket and pulled it out seeing a text from Hotch. The address is 346 Bluebonnet Lane. Nodding Morgan sent a text back. Leaving the BAU now. Be there soon.

After leaving the building Morgan climbed into his car and put the address into his GPS before driving out of the parking lot. The entire time he was driving the only thing Morgan could think of was what had happened between Hotch and Haley. For as long as Morgan had known Hotch, he knew that the man was in love with his wife. So, he knew for Hotch to basically leave Haley then it had to have been serious.

Pulling into the driveway of the mansion, Morgan quickly double checked to make sure he was pulling into the right driveway. The house was big and the neighborhood was full of house that were similar in size. As he was walking towards the door, Morgan tried to remember Hotch had ever mentioned having a friend that lived in this neighborhood. Knocking on the door, Morgan was surprised to see an older Italian man answer it. He knew that he had seen him before but couldn't tell where he knew him from. Remembering why he was there Morgan greeted him, "Hi. My name is Derek Morgan and I'm looking for Aaron Hotchner. Is he here?" Nodding the man smiled at him and gestured for him to enter, "Yeah he's here. Come on in, I'll take you to him." Nodding in thanks Morgan followed him through the house and found Hotch sitting in the living room.

Standing Aaron greeted the other man, "Hi Morgan. I'm sorry for all of the confusion." Shaking his boss's hand Morgan returned the greeting, "Hi Hotch. It's good, I'm just a bit confused is all. I thought you and Haley were good?" Giving a quiet sigh Hotch spoke, "I'll explain everything I swear. Oh, let me introduce you to my friend. Derek this is David Rossi. Dave this is Derek Morgan, Morgan and I work together. Morgan, Dave is a retired BAU agent and an author." Morgan suddenly realized where he had seen the Italian man before, "That's right. You wrote about different unsubs. Our teammate Reid has read all of your books."

Nodding the Italian man returned the greeting, "It's nice to meet you Morgan. Do you want something to drink? I've got water, wine, bourbon, and scotch." Smiling Morgan replied, "I'll take a water. I've still got to drive home." Nodding Rossi walked into the kitchen and came back a minute later with three bottles of water. After passing out the drinks, Rossi sat down and looked at the two other men.

Aaron took a sip of his water before looking at the other agent, "Okay, so the truth is that Haley and I haven't been so happy for a while. She didn't like that the job took up a bunch of my time. A couple days ago while you were in Milwaukee, I was going of the case because you guys needed help. I hadn't touched a case in the two weeks that I had been home, but you guys needed me. Anyway, she comes downstairs after putting Jack to sleep and sees me working. We get into a bit of an argument, then the home phone rings. I answer but get no answer and then the other person hangs up. Right after that her cell phone rings right after that. Haley has never been able to lie to me. Not even for surprises or anything. I can read her face and eyes too well. I asked her straight out if she was cheating on me. She tried to turn it back on me and she stormed out. I called Dave and asked him to come out. He said that Jack and I could come and stay with him and after I left a note for Haley about where we were going then Jack and I came here. I haven't heard from her since she stormed out.

Morgan sat there in stunned silence listening to his boss's explanation. He couldn't believe that Haley was cheating, but at the same time he could. He knew that Haley wasn't happy about Hotch having to fly all over the country to solve cases. She may have seemed alright with it, but he could tell that she wasn't pleased with it. Leaning back against his seat he looked at Hotch, "Man, I'm sorry Hotch. Is there anything I can do?" Shaking his head Aaron leaned back as well, "No. I don't want to get you into the crossfire. Thank you though. I'll deal with all of it. I've already decided to divorce her. The only thing I'm worried about is what is going to happen with Jack. There is a high chance of Haley getting custody and if that happens, I may not be able to see him."

Before anyone could respond there was a knock on the door. Standing Dave went to answer it only to come back a few minutes later with two uniformed officers. Gesturing to the officers Rossi spoke, "Aaron these officers want to talk to you." Standing Aaron walked over to the two men and shook their hands, "Hello. I'm Aaron Hotchner. Can I help you?" One of the officers returned the greeting before dropping this piece of information, "Yes, hello Mr. Hotchner. I'm Officer Sims and this is my partner Officer Hanners. We are here because we got a report of a kidnapped child. A Haley Hotchner called and said that you had taken him and that you didn't have custody."

Hey y'all. I figured I could stop here. What do you think is going to happen? Don't forget to review and tell me what you think please!
