"In Life, unlike chess, the game continues after checkmate"- Isaac Asimov

Hotch sat on the other side of Prentiss on the plane. Everyone else was asleep, else where on the jet but they both sat at the small table cards out on the table from when she tried to play Reid.

Hotch watched her she had a small stitch in the corner of her head from where to Unsub pistol whipped her. They had gotten the Plane back to Quantico that night. Hotch noticed how when she got back from the hospital she flinched from the contact of Rossi's hand. Also when they left the hotel she had changed into black slacks flat shoes and long dark red turtle neck. As she slept she had her arms around her self, protecting her self even while she sleep. He had kept true to his word he told the team the Unsub had took her by surprise and pistol whipped her and pointed the gun at her and Hotch shot him, he skipped out that he found her naked from the hip down and restrained. He looked up at her again, a single tear tracked down her pale cheek as she slept.

Hotch sat in his seat watching the sleeping agent. He watched her think about how much, he hated the Unsub, which he though was natural but there was more hate on top of the exceptionable hate the hate a close loved one such as husband or boyfriend or father should feel. He did have to admit while she faked her death he did miss her, he even borrowed JJ laptop and played scrabble with her under the name JJ had picked. He remember how when Jessica was ill Jack came into the BAU on the paperwork day on one of their breaks between cases. He remember how Jack spent the entire time with Prentiss, as they played snap or he coloured as she finished her paper work.

He looked up to see her thrashing in her sleep, her face frowning. Hotch got up and shook her awake. She flinched away from his touch.

"hey, your okay?"he asked. She looked at him scared her big brown eyes petrified. But the a few seconds of looking at Hotch's she realised he would never hurt her.

"yeah, bad dream"she whispered.

"well we are going to land in fifteen minutes"he said. She but on a forced smiling dreading going home.

"if you want, you could come and have dinner with me and Jack"he said.

" Hotch,I don't need pity"she said but not with the venom she tried to give but she couldn't bring her self to be angry at him.

"no as friends,any way Jack was asking about you, he asked when is he coming back to my work so he could she is aunt Em'ly"he said, and a ghost of a smile appeared on her face at the mention of Jack.

"thanks,that be great"she said, smiling.

They sat in silence for the last leg of the journey on the plane. When it landed Hotch went around waking everyone one up, everyone left the plane in a sleep, zombie type state but Prentiss stayed seated she stared at the seat that Hotch had just been sat at. When Hotch went to see what was the matter she flinched at his touch.
"sorry"he replied.

"its fine"she said trying to shake it off but she knew she had scared Hotch but she tried to shake it off.

.o0o.

"EMMY!"cried Jack as Hotch held the door open for her to enter first, Prentiss bent down to his height and picked him up in a huge. Jess nodded her goodbyes.

"what happened to your head? Did a bad guy hurt you?"asked Jack touching the plaster very lightly with his little finger.

"yeah"she said a small tear coming to her eye, but she blinked it away "and your dad saved me"she said giving Hotch a grateful look.

"that is because daddy is brave"he said and gave Prentiss's plaster a light kiss. "aunty JJ says kissing helps boo boos get better"he said, Prentiss smiled at the boy having to blink away more tears.

"yeah, I feel better already"she said. Hotch looked at them in awe, he loved how Prentiss and Jack goton , but his heart broke inside knowing that Prentiss was doing her best right now not to break down.

"hey why don't you go get you Pjs on Jack while Emily picks a film for you to watch and I will order pizza"said Hotch. Jack sprang out of Prentiss's hands and speeded down the hall to his bedroom.

"are you sure your okay?"asked Hotch.

" what do you think Hotch?"she asked but her voice was soft.

" sorry, your right"he said looking guilty.

"don't"she said.

"what?"

"don't blame your self"she said.

" we shouldn't have spilt up, I should have been quicker checking the house"he said.

"no"she said her voice stern.

"Prentiss..."he said but the look in her eyes made him drop it. "...what Pizza do you want?"he asked, his voice soft as possible trying not to scare her.
" I am not that hungry"she said.

"well what happened I am not surprised but you have to eat something, I will order a slightly bigger pizza for my self and you could have some of the slices?"he asked.

"yeah"she said her voice hoarse

" I have mushroom on mine is that okay?"he asked.

"yeah, I I'll just pick the off"she said and a smile appeared on her lips as Jack came bouncing into the room with a big teddy bear. He held it up for her.

"its Ben,my teddy he always makes me feel better, and I want you to hold him to make you feel better" Jack explained. Prentiss couldn't control the tears this time, she bent down and hugged Jack and carried him to the sofa with Ben.

"did I do something wrong daddy?"he asked as Hotch followed.

"no Jack"she said answering Jack's question. "these are tears of happiness"she explained but Hotch knew it was a mixture of happiness with Jack and hurt from what had happened.

"good, because I don't wanna upset you, your nice and pretty"explained Jack as he snuggled into Prentiss side with Ben. Hotch smiled and put in finding nemo.
