~ Chapter Two ~

"Never Going To Hold The Hand Of Another Guy."

JJ sighed as she went through the case files on her desk, it had been a long day and the cases just didn't seem to stop coming. She was about to give up and leave her office for the night when her eyes came across a name she hadn't seen in years. Biting her lip and slowly opening the file, her heart skipped a few beats, the words 'Reopened' jumping out at her. Her hands shook as she read over the notes, knowing this would be the case her team would take, even if there were more dire cases out there.

She got up, taking the case file with her, knowing everyone was still there.

"Boardroom, now!" She shouted, not looking anyone in the eye, hoping she wouldn't regret doing this,

"New case?" Morgan asked hopefully, they all liked to be kept busy and they would all rather solve a case than deal with the masses of paperwork that came after it. She didn't bother answering him, knowing that the answer was already obvious as she marched into the room with the case file in her hand, sorting everything out on the computer before turning to the team.

"Over ten years ago, Jamie Lewis went missing." She turned around, staring at the boy in the photograph behind her, tears glazed her ice blue eyes as she quickly turned back to the, her head shaking as she tried to focus,

"He was seventeen years old, he was walking home from a football game and nobody has seen him since."

"How do they know he isn't a runaway?" JJ glared at Emily, surprising everyone,

"He wouldn't..." She knew for a fact that Jamie wouldn't have broken his promise, he wouldn't have given up that scholarship, he wouldn't have left her...

"How do you know?" Reid piped up, confusion evident in everyone's eyes as JJ turned back around, clicking the next photograph on; A photograph of JJ and Jamie together, the one that had been released to the press.

"You're personally involved?" Rossi shook his head,

"I can do this though, it was a long time ago...." Clicking it once more, revealing the news coverage at the time, Vicars Daughter Speaks Up For Missing Boyfriend,

"You were the vicars daughter?" Emily grinned at JJ, laughing at the irony of the non religious person in front of her being the daughter of a vicar.

"Wow, that's tough.." Morgan looked up at her as she passed out the case files she had already copied in a hurry,

"Ten people from that town have gone missing since, one every single year, on the same day."

"We have to bring up the possibility of him being dead JJ, you know that right?" She nodded, looking down at the ground,

"We need closure... his family and me... we just need to find him, dead or alive." She sighed, running her hand through her long blonde hair as she thought about him being dead -wanting more than anything for it to not be true.

"Wheels up in an hour." Hotch said before walking out of the room, JJ nodded walking out after him and locking herself up in her office, the tears finally falling down her face as she slid down the door and curled up in a ball.

"What can I do for you my loyal followers?" Garcia grinned as Morgan, Reid and Emily walked into her lair.

"We need you to check on JJ's past.." Reid bit his lip, feeling as though he was betraying a best friends trust, but knowing that they had to do this for the case.

"Can I ask why?"

"We are working on a case that involves a boyfriend of hers who went missing ten years ago."

"Okay..." Garcia hesitated before deciding to do what they asked,

"Let's see, there are some newspaper articles here...." She brought each one up,

"Soccer star wins scholarship into top university along with her boyfriend, vicars daughter pleas with kidnappers to bring her boyfriend back home, child prodigy wins music competition." She carried on through the list, showing more about JJ's life in the five minutes than they had got out of her in the past three years.

"Looks like my baby girl was an amazing musician." Garcia beamed with pride as she looked at the photograph of a six year old JJ playing the piano,

"What else is there?"

"Oh my baby girl," She muttered, continuing to type,

"JJ tried to kill herself on the year anniversary..." Morgan shook his head,

"She also has a criminal record, which like Morgan's, was expunged. She had minor offences all of which occurred after Jamie went missing, under age drinking, under age driving, fighting, drugs..." She sucked in a deep breath,

"She really did love him didn't she? Her record was completely clean before he went missing, she maintained an A average throughout her whole school life, dropping to a D in her last year. She even gave up soccer before realizing that she was never going to get out of there without it, and then after the year her grades went back up to A's and she got her scholarship offer again."

"Thanks, we will speak to you later. Wheels up soon." Emily smiled at Garcia before walking out,

"JJ will be okay if we don't find him, right?" Reid whispered to them, looking up at her office door which was still closed,

"We will help her get through it if she isn't." They all nodded, grabbing their bags before walking out to catch the plane.

A/N Thought I would show a little of the aftermath here, please let me know what you think.
