CHAPTER 4

The next morning they were meeting with a social worker and Chris was needed to be present which meant she was waking up at an ungodly hour and she made it known that it was an ungodly hour every ten minutes until Emily shoved the hot cup of coffee in her hands.

"Thank you." Emily smiled at the teen and handed Carrie her own cup before making one for her and JJ who decided to stay behind with them.

"Why do I have to be there?" Chris asked taking a careful sip of her coffee.

"Because you have to tell the social worker how it is living with Emily." JJ answered as she got the breakfast tray from the concierge. "Thank you." She closed the door.

"Can't I write it down like a statement, it wouldn't be my first." Chris said and Emily snapped her head to her so fast it's amazing that she didn't get whiplash. And the look she was giving Chris scared the shit out of her. "I mean…that would totally be my first."

"What was it about?"

"Daniel's estranged mother wanted her son, but the courts didn't want him around her and Andy's ex-boyfriend was pissed that she left him for a girl." Chris said.

"She didn't leave him for you did she?" Emily asked and Chris gasped.

"What makes you think it was me?" Chris asked.

"She kissed you after Drake was sentenced to juvie and it was in the court room." Emily said as Chris nodded.

"True, but that caught me off guard just as much as the next person and I didn't date her after that." Chris said.

"Hold up, can we back that up?" JJ asked.

"Oh, let me clear all of this up, I'm bi, most people are ok with it, lord knows it took a long time for my parents to be ok with it and when grandma found out…" Chris trailed off and made a face.

"My mother wasn't that bad." Emily defended and Chris gave her a 'are you kidding me?' look.

"She went on and on about how she was glad I wouldn't be knocked up but she also said something about great-grandchildren and something or other, but I do remember sitting there for about an hour waiting for her to finish ranting." Chris said.

"You're bi?" Carrie asked more curious than shocked.

"Yeah." Chris shrugged.

"Cool." Carrie said.

"See, why couldn't that be yours, my parents and grandma's answer, it would have been easier." Chris said pointing to Carrie.

"I was shocked, your parents had plans and your grandmother, I have nothing to say about her." Emily said.

"I wish that was the reaction my parents gave as well." JJ said softly not even realizing she said it.

"Your parents didn't take it well?" Emily asked as JJ looked shocked.

"Uh, yeah, they…well my mom, wasn't ok with it, my dad said he would love me no matter what." JJ said with a smile at the end.

"Sounds like you and your mom aren't close." Carrie said.

"Not anymore."

"She's crazy then, she should know how great you are." Emily said with a smile.

Chris and Carrie looked at the two and exchanged a look. They nodded with a look that said they would talk later.

"Come on Em, we're all spilling our hardships, what about yours?" Chris asked.

"Well, unlike you Chris, my mother had a tantrum, she tried hooking me up with as many guys as she could, we argued and avoided each other for awhile, my father was as supportive as he could." Emily said.

"Wait, you're all gay or bi?" Carrie asked as they nodded.

"I'm bi." JJ said.

"Gay." Emily shrugged.

"How old were you guys?" Carrie asked.

"I was fifteen." Chris answered.

"I was in college, probably twenty." JJ answered.

"I was twenty four when I told, but I was sure when I was twenty two." Emily answered.

"We're not gonna start talking about first times and first whatever's right?" Chris asked.

"Got something to hide?" Emily asked as Chris scoffed.

"No."

"First kiss?" Emily asked.

"I was fourteen, to the junior varsity quarterback."

"First time?"

"Haven't had one yet." Chris said proudly.

"First boyfriend?"

"My first kiss."

"Girlfriend?"

"Senior cheerleading captain when I was a sophomore."

"She was gay?" Emily asked surprised as Chris nodded.

"Most people gave me props for bagging the cheer captain but she wasn't a whore as most people thought, she was pretty cool, never pressured me into anything, took me out, I felt pampered, but I never took what I couldn't give." Chris said.

"She sounds nice." JJ commented.

"Yeah, she's great, she's on a cheer scholarship at NYU and I see her once a month for dinner and when she comes to visit family we hang out. She's my best friend; I helped her through a lot." Chris said.

"Like?" Emily asked.

"Abusive dad, first foster home, then her brother was medically discharged from the army and he came and took her."

They ate breakfast and headed to meet the social worker. Carrie was cool with them and had no objections or any problems.

"So miss Sloan…"

"Prentiss." Chris corrected.

"Excuse me?"

"I don't use my parents surname; I haven't since I was fifteen."

"Alright, miss Prentiss, how are living conditions with Agent Prentiss?" the social worker asked.

"They're cool, I know she works and it involves traveling, but she puts in as much time for me as she does for work, she comes to as many games as she can, there for every parent teacher meeting, she's a great parent, she was there more than my own parents." Chris said.

"Food and clothing wise and living arrangements?"

"I don't know why they call it a condo when it has three rooms, she leaves money for food when she leaves on assignment and always brings some groceries home when she leaves work, I do my own shopping and just cause I'm a trust fund baby doesn't mean I use it, I have a job and I love being independent and Emily gives me whatever I need and she's ready to do the same with Carrie."

"So you have no objections in Agent Prentiss' decision to take miss Ortiz in?"

"None whatsoever, she accepts me for who I am and we've bonded over the past few days, it'd be nice to have someone around when Emily's away on assignment."

"You're left home alone?"

"Yes, but her co-worker Penelope Garcia check up on me everyday they're away."

"But other than that you're alone?"

"Yes, I'm sixteen and can take care of myself, my grades are good, teachers love me, my coaches adore me and even though I hate it my best friend will come stay with me."

"Best friend?"

"Damian Welch."

"A boy."

"Is there a problem with that? He's my best friend and if he wants to stay he can even though sometimes I would much rather be alone."

"She allows you to be alone with this boy?"

"I'm bi, he's gay, there won't be any sexual activities between me and him. Now get to the point, this is about Carrie's future, not me."

JJ, Emily and Carrie were trying not to laugh at Chris' words.

The meeting soon finished and they went back to the hotel.

They were all ready for this to end and leave.
