Secrets are not secrets forever.

Chapter three.

Reid chased Faith through the hallway trying to catch up.

"Hey! F-faith, c'mon wait up"

Faith stopped dead in her tracks and rolled her eyes

"What spencer."

"Look. i don't have a clue what your going through and I can't begin to comprehend it but you have done so well, so far and I am proud of you-

No! Don't, look im not trying to be harsh but...yeah the odds of you being my father are high. But just because you are doesn't mean you can attempt to play the angelic father. You have known me for two minutes and...the way your acting, I... I can't manage all these emotions, you over anyone should know this. Yes your my dad, and I'm happy that i have found you but when you look at the circumstances of why i found you my priorities are all over the place and my MOTHER is missing. Please understand."

Tears begin to stream down her face as she almost shouts at Reid.

"I do. I understand completely faith and your mother, was the kindest, warm hearted person I ever met and that's why I loved-love her. I am not resting until she is found because she is one life that is precious to you and nobody is taking that away from you."

Reid's voice begins to break as he ties down all his emotions to show faith he isn't afraid. He's lying to himself.

He slowly walks towards the young girl, who now has her head bowed hiding the stream of tears coming from her weary eyes. He places a hand on her shoulder and uses the other to lift her chin to see her eyes. He lowers his tone to a relaxed, but reassuring manner.

"We are going to find your mom, I promise."

Faith looks into Spencer's eyes and all she has the power to do is to wrap her arms around him tightly, squeezing her eyes shut. Reid stands there for a second, surprised. He returns the hug and lets one single tear roll down his face.

JJ watching the whole thing, smiles and walks away happy that Reid is finally connecting with his child.

After hours of research Garcia almost has all the pieces to the puzzle of Lila's disappearance but there is one, single thing that is blocking the answer to the motive. Why? Why has he taken Lila?

"I FOUND IT!" garcia exclaims, over excitedly but with zero care as she is so happy she has found the motive. She messages each one of the team members, all except Reid.

After a couple of minutes one, by, one the team members show up and sit at the rounded table. Garcia comes in with the clicker in one hand and her laptop resting in the other. She places the laptop on the table and addresses the team.

"So i'm pretty sure i found out why the unsub would have a reason to take Lila."

Hotch pauses the conference with the question.

"May I ask, is Reid late or out with Faith?"

"None of the above, sir. I...decided it wasn't best to tell Spencer, due to him connecting with Faith and also, because I thought it would be best that Faith didn't hear the full in's and out's to why her mother was taken."

"So as we know Lila lives in a very nice estate with some very nice neighbors. All except from one. A man called joseph had a thing for watching lila and Faith in their home,He had a very large crush on Lila -

"How did you find this out?" Rossi asked.

"I found a social media account what was named 'lila lovers' and at first i thought it was a fan-made account of some sort but, then i found a picture of Lila's front door with a bouquet laying on the floor and all the caption said was 'to my love' so I decided to see if there was any need to check the IP and when i did i found that it connected to a man named joseph king

"So...he's a stalker?" JJ questions.

"Yep. the second one she has had and they are both creepy people that like to send her flowers."

Hotch decides to conclude the conference by recommending that it would be a good idea to ask Faith if she knows about her mother's secret admirer.

**BUZZZZ** Reid picked up his phone in between sips of the chocolate milkshake he ordered to match his daughters.

"Faith...do you know anything about someone sending your mom flowers and notes?"

"Yeah my mom and I assumed it was some crazy fan but it got more frequent...why, it wasn't...dodgy? Was it?"

"They believe so but do you remember reading the notes, any that sparked any concerns?"

"When i come to think of it there was one, last week. And it was nasty, mom didn't let me read it and threw it away but when she wasn't looking I pulled it out and read it, and it was on the lines of 'you and your daughter will both pay for your ignorance' but,because mom didn't worry, I wasn't worried but, could this be what she's paying for?"

"That is an amazing piece of evidence Faith! That's perfect!"

Reid jumped up excitedly and threw a note on the table alongside a tip for the waiter. And faith followed. They got in the car and headed towards the office.
