JJ was the last person off the jet back in Quantico. Caleb Curtis, the stand-in computer tech while a newly-widowed Garcia was on maternity leave, also her boyfriend ever since Will high-tailed it back to New Orleans in December, was standing off to the side of the merry group, watching Henry and his son Danny. Henry was talking to Reid, who was making a silly reference to fairy paint.
Caleb smiled at her when he noticed her coming towards him.
"Howdy." He hugged her, choosing not to kiss her in front of the team.
"Did Henry behave?" Caleb had been having Henry stay with him while the team was away on cases.
"Always. Hey, I was thinking, maybe, since it's so late, we should just take the boys out to eat. It'd be a treat for them. And for me for that matter. I'll pay. Do you want to?"
"That sounds great."
"Great."
Caleb called the boys and they headed to his car. JJ thanked her lucky stars as she walked hand-in-hand with Caleb.
She watched the team. Hotch and Emily went one way, together. Leah and Reid left together. Rossi walked leisurely toward his car, quite possibly happy to have a night for himself, even if the team was meeting for dinner at Leah's the next night. Morgan held JJ's attention, though. He made a beeline for his car, a man on a mission. She wondered: what mission was that?
I know, I know, it's short, but I really wanted to set the tone for where everybody is at. Please reiview and take a look at my poll, which I will pay attention to this time.
