A/N: Ok, so I like this chapter very much, and it has nothing to do with the fact that I rewrote some parts like three times before I was fine with it.

But I think this one will be a base to some of the events that will come, you will see what I'm talking about.

Thank you very much for the reviews.

LetMeWalkTheEarthWithYou, sarahb2007, rmpcmfan: I know very sad, but other moments will come. Sadly not all of them happy, but that's life right.

blackstarsing, Guest: I really wanted to do something like this for sometime. I like them and I don't think there are many out there.

I hope you all like it.

Season 2 Episode 16 = Fear and Loathing

I didn't want another weekend like this one ever again.

I mean, the going to my parents house was actually the nicest part of it. And when spending that amount of time with my mother and her critics was the best part, the rest just sucked.

Ambassador Prentiss was actually quite pleasant, I think dad said something, we didn't even fight. And I got there in work wrinkled clothes and in a mood. But dad, being dad, got me out of it quite quickly.

I did got several phone calls from JJ and Garcia the whole weekend, which I did not answer, I know Garcia didn't do anything, but she and JJ were friends long before I came, so if JJ asked, she would push me aside. So I decided to do that for her.

Agent Hotchner called once on Saturday, I sent a message asking if we had a case, after getting a negative answer I told him I would see him on Monday and cut of the other subject.

On Saturday night, I got a call from Morgan. Dad and I had had a few glasses of wine and I forgot the ignore all BAU member's call and answered. He checked up on me like a friend would, and even not wanting to, it warmed a little part of me.

My parents and I spent the Saturday together and by Sunday morning I decided that things were looking up, so I called Stan. Stan being my over a month sporadic date. I mean in one month we had only gone to three dates, but still I was excited.

And that is when things went south. We were talking and one moment we were flirting and the next he was I was talking about my favorite author, it would be normal, except apparently close minded Stan didn't like girls that were "a little too smart" and that is a quote.

Needless to say the date was basically over, I couldn't open my mouth again, I mean didn't the guy say come to the date, but leave the brain home. So after a drink and entries we said goodbye, he did say he would call, but I was already too disappointed. He had looked so normal and sweet; I guess fifth date is the one. The brake up one.

And to top my night, my apartment got broken into. Seriously, who the hell breaks in on a Sunday, and gets one of the only days I actually was in town. I had to give the police a statement and check if the my other gun was missing, and see what were the things I was missing.

The place wasn't even furnished yet, they actually took two TV's, my coffee machine, some random jewelry that was on my nightstand, a few items of clothing and shoes and my whole make up. So about what I had in the house.

And let's not forget they left lovely words on most of the walls, great.

I knew I had being living here for a month already but I had not gotten moved in yet. Most of the stuff I owned was sold or my mother had done something to it, when I went overseas I did not have time to deal with household things.

So when I came to Virginia I decided to start from zero and build a home, and that plan got pushed a few days, and then a week and then a month, and now I just wanted to move from here.

The door was pretty much useless so I decided to pack a suitcase and just go to a hotel. Calling my parents at this time of the night would only freak them out, and let's face it, I would never call anyone on the team. As I left my place I saw the a few other apartments were also being inspected, I guess this Sunday was a bad one for a lot of people.

Monday got too early for my liking and after having to move into a hotel room in the middle of the night, I had barely slept at all. I got up and left a message for dad to call me, I would ask him to look around for a safer neighborhood and to go look with me before he had to leave again.

Just as I was pouring my third cup of coffee that morning Morgan came and saw mw making a mess, and then make my day. How could I not know that he was a Vonnegut fan? I knew there was something I liked about him.

I told him about the bad date, but the other things were more private, I still didn't know how much to tell and who to trust. Sometimes I think that was I did my whole life, evaluate the risks of getting to know people.

Well maybe Morgan could be a friend, he wasn't invasive, he didn't need to know things, if you wanted to tell him, that was fine, if you didn't that was fine too. And for her, right now that was a good thing.

When we got back to the BAU Morgan and I were talking about Vonnegut and unintentionally ignoring agent Hotchner, well not so unintentionally on my part, it was just the three of us in one SUV again and so we had gotten there earlier. After making sure the older agent was distracted by a file and wouldn't hear I approached Morgan with something that was bothering me.

"Hey, I wanted to apologize about what I said in the cemetery today."

"It's ok, I guess I just went through all that happen to me when I saw it happening to that boy, some cases hit a bit too close to home."

"I cannot even imagine going through what you did, and I think it's awesome that you became what you did, and I think what you said to that little boy will make a big of difference in his life." He smiled at that.

"It's what I would have liked to hear you know." We stayed quiet for a bit. "How about we go for a beer?" I was about to declined when he continued. "Just you and me." I could feel my face and ears become hot and I looked down. If Morgan had noticed something was up that was bad. I thought I was doing a good job of keeping things to myself.

"Em, I don't know what happened, and it's none of my business. I just hope that you don't think people are taking sides, because no one is." And just like that I could look into his eyes again. "I like you, and I think you are a good agent."

"Thanks"

"Agent Prentiss" I looked up as I saw the detective that was in my apartment last night.

"Detective O'Brian, how are you?" What was he doing here?

"I just wanted to tell you that you might not want to go back to your building just yet. We got the people that did it, but they are a bunch of teenagers that are rebelling around the city and they formed a large group." Oh great, I moved into freaking wannabe gang area.

"So you think others will go back?"

"They might, especially after someone let it leak that an FBI agent lived there." What the fuck?

"And who might that be detective, because your team knows my neighbors better then I do." God this incompetent sun of a..The other part of the team walked through the glass doors and with Garcia too.

"What happened to your apartment?" Morgan had a serious voice. Crap.

"It got robed."

"When did that happened?" Morgan looked worried.

"Humm…. Last Sunday, just after we got back from Atlanta."

"What the hell Em, you didn't tell anyone?" Ohhh he was the overprotective kind of guy.

"I just didn't even think about telling anyone, I mean why would anyone care anyway."

And that was when the whole team's attention became pretty much glued to our conversation.

"What do you mean anyone would care?"

"Not like that. It just wasn't a big of a deal. I barely had any furniture in the place, and the rest of the stuff got robbed, and I wasn't there, so no danger." I tried making a point.

"Prentiss you should have told someone." Agent Hotchner decided to join in.

"Sir, it really is not a big of a deal."

"That's because the lady didn't have much in the place, and they cleaned the rest out. Even food and personal items were gone." Thanks detective obvious, now butt out.

"Consider myself adverted detective O'Brian. I won't be going back there." He at least had the decency to look embarrassed as he left. Good.

"Your place wasn't furnished it?" Really Reid, Spanish inquisition right now?

"I have furniture, just not as many as other people." I tried.

"Really, and what did you have?" Morgan started sarcastically.

"A bed, a couch….a TV." I stated lamely. "Oh and a coffee machine"

"You have being living here for almost three months and you had 4 things on your house." Reid asked.

I nodded.

"Where are you even living?"

"Hotel." Ok, ganging up on me was making me nervous.

"You don't have to do that, you can stay with someone on the team, you can stay with me." JJ said.

"Honestly I prefer not to." I blurted rudely. "And also I still have to go back to pick up what is left of my clothes and move out. Besides having to buy a few essentials." Why were they making such a big deal out of this?

"The hell you will." I turned to Morgan surprised at the outburst.

"Morgan is right, you are not going anywhere near that place by yourself, and I don't care that you have your gun." Agent Hotcher put his alpha male out to play.

"Fine. I'll wait until tomorrow during the day." I tried to compromise.

"You will do no such thing. You will only go with one of us Prentiss is that understood."

"Sir, as I have said before…

"Prentiss that is not a request." He said altering his voice.

That shut me up. I was angry and embarrassed, why did they have to make such a big deal out of this.

"Fine. Morgan could you please go with me?" I asked not looking at anyone. That made everyone leave Morgan and myself alone.

"Hey, he is just looking out for you, he does that to everybody on his team."

Yeah right, the only difference is that he basically told me I'm not a part of the team a few times already, so what gives?

"Let's just go." I got my go bag and we headed to the elevators.

The whole way to my apartment was quiet. When we got there I could see that Morgan was surprised that there really wasn't much in it.

"You know, you really don't have to stay in the hotel." He started talking while I got a few empty bags and started to put my stuff on it.

"Yes I do. Morgan I'm really glad for what you are doing, but let's face it I'm an outsider." I didn't even fold the stuff I just started putting it on the suitcases at random.

"Hey, we were all outsiders before we got in. You just have to let the dust sit for a while." I closed my eyes at that. Was that really it? Just give it more time? "I know things have being a little tougher for you, but that's just because you can kick any of our asses"

"You can bet on that." I replayed smiling.

"So how about you start being more on the flow kind of girl." He said that doing a little sway of his hips and I just burst out laughing.

"Sure thing bud, I let it flow." He smirked at me. "Tonight, we will go to our drink, and tomorrow I'll call Garcia and we will go on a girls day to buy my essentials."

"Good. And Em, don't give take it seriously what JJ said, she was just in shock and angry. You are a good agent, and I think she just got embarrassed over what happened.

I nodded my head, I wasn't the only one that hear it.

"Oh, and by the way, I'll inspect the furnishing process. Just to make sure it doesn't take the next ten years to get done."

"Fine." I guess I could put up with a few more things if it got me a job I liked and a couple of friends like Morgan and Garcia.
