Emily looked into Derek's eyes. This was going too fast, faster than any relationship she had ever been in. She didn't even know if they were in a relationship. She hadn't even gone on a date with Derek. She took a deep breath and thought what the hell and took the plunge. She wrapped her arms around his neck and ignored the pain shoot through her as she kissed him harder. She lifted her hip and ground it against his.
"Emily. Are you sure? We can stop and just sleep." Derek said, breaking away from the kiss and he looked at her, gauging her reaction.
"I doubt either of us will sleep tonight. Derek, it's been a long while coming." Emily said, her voice calm and strong. She was sure about what she wanted.
Derek pulled his hands out from under her shirt and pulled it over her head. He helped her unbutton his shirt and he removed his pants. They were in only their underwear. He leaned down and kissed the tip of her breast and she arched her back and moaned.
She ran her hands down his muscular back and pushed his boxers down. She gasped when she saw him stand up to kick his boxers off and he knelt over her to kiss her softly.

Emily woke up next morning and stretched. She immediately gasped from the soreness.
"Oh ow! Derek?" She called out softly after finding the left side of the bed empty. She sat up went to the loo to take a shower and get changed. When she came out of the shower, she felt a little better but oh boy she was sore. She smiled as she remembered the explosive sex. She had never done things like what she did last night. Derek was a first for her in many, many ways. She looked at the mirror to see that she was red. She smiled and she craned her neck in every direction to see if she had any hickeys. Luckily she didn't. She definitely had to rule out swimming for a couple of weeks because the bruises on her thighs were a sure give away. She grinned again and walked out of her room.
She saw Derek closing the door to his room and walked up to him. She slapped his behind playfully and grinned at him when he turned around.
"Hello beautiful. Did you sleep well?" Derek asked Emily who was looking very pretty that morning. She had a faint tinge of red on her cheeks which made her look cute, a word he never would have used to describe her.
"I did. I missed you this morning though." Emily said, walking down with him. It warmed his heart to hear her say that. She wasn't the most vocal of people.
"I had to leave baby. I didn't want anyone catching me in the corridor as I went out of your room!" Deerk said, rubbing her back.
"I know. I was just saying. You left me quite sore though. I'll have to hit the gym from now on!" Emily said, smiling slightly as she looked at him.
"Really? I'm so sorry! I didn't mean it. Are you okay? You can stay back. I'm sure Hotch wouldn't mind." Derek said, concern dripping from his voice. It was tinged with guilt also.
"Oh boy. We need to do something about your must-blame-myself syndrome. It's a good sore. I'll get you back for it though." Emily said as they walked into the breakfast room.
"Hey Emily." Reid said as he joined her at the cereal table. He watched her as she loaded her bowl with Cinnamon Toast Crunch and inhaled deeply.
"Hi Reid. Good morning. Have you ever smelt this? Isn't it amazing?" Emily asked the young doctor.
"Uh. I don't know. How are you feeling? Should I try some of that also?" Reid asked Emily.
"I'm perfectly fine. And yeah. Get some. It's the best cereal in the world." She said, nodding.
Reid filled his bowl also and followed her to a table where JJ and Morgan were sitting. Rossi joined them with Hotch.
"Prentiss. How are you feeling? Will you be able to work today?" Hotch asked. He felt guilty for not rushing back to the station. Morgan was after all her friend and he just wanted to make sure she was alright.
"I'm fine, sir. I just want to catch the miserable son-of-a-bitch… I apologise for my language." Emily said, as an afterthought.
As the team sat around the table, Reid was muttering to himself.
"Hey boy genius? You want to talk a little louder?" Morgan asked Reid.
"Huh? I was actually debating a theory with myself." Reid answered.
"Ok. What is it? Maybe we can debate it with you?" Morgan asked Reid, amused at the younger man.
"Well, the unsub attacks both foster parents and children. What if he was a foster child and now a foster parent himself?" Reid proposed to the table.
"You really are a boy genius aren't you?" Prentiss said, patting Reid on the back as Hotch dialed.
"Hello sugarpuss! What can the queen of your world do for you?" came the voice from the phone.
"Garcia, I'd like you to look at all foster children who later became foster parents in the tri-state area." Hotch said while Morgan snickered. Hotch was using Morgan's phone.
"Yes sir. Immediately. I'm so sorry about the.." Garcia said before being cut off by Hotch.
"It's alright. Now the list." Hotch said, almost smiling.
"Yes sir. I'm on it." Garcia said and hung up.

The whole team was at DCF going through records of the people that were on Garcia's list. They had five possible suspects. They were tired. There was a knock on the door and Kenny walked in. he looked grim.
"Chief Kenny?" Hotch asked.
"Brian Green was found dead in his backyard by the neighbours. His name was carved on his forehead. He is our eighth victim." Kenny said, and slammed his hand on the table.
"Brian. He knew something guys. He ran from me. He knew something was going to happen. Have we tried connecting him to our suspects?" Prentiss asked.
Morgan called Garcia and put it on speaker.
"Garcia." Came the sober greeting.
"Hey baby girl. Can you see if you can connect Brian G-r-e-e-n to Arthur Gerard, Kevin Menton, Ryan Abe, Dylan Ben and Yolan Tauro?" Morgan asked.
"Hold please…. Well well well, Brian is registered as Kevin Menton's foster child, but was removed after complaints of abuse." Garcia said.
"Can you connect the other victims to Kevin Menton?" Hotch enquired.
"Sure. All the children were assigned to him before removed. The other foster parents were granted custody of the children who were removed from him." Garcia said, her tone pleased.
"Looks like we got our unsub" Morgan said gleefully.
