When Matt walked off the plane and into the BAU he was surprised to see Kristy there waiting for him. Now he knew why Luke had followed behind him with Rossi. He said " Hey honey."
She walked over to him and hugged him. " Hi sweetheart. Maybe it's a good thing that I defrosted Dave's wedding soup earlier. It's at home in the crockpot waiting for you."
" That sounds amazing right now."
" Something told me you might need that as well as some Vitamin C. You only wear a hoodie for two reasons. When you're stressing or when you're coming down with something."
Matt nodded. " Might be the second one. Where are the kids?"
" The boys are at the Millers for their first sleepover and the girls are with Connie Stone's daughters down the block for some pizza and fun. She will bring them home later."
" Good, so it's just us."
" Yes for a few hours . Long enough for me to give you a nice backrub and help you feel better."
" How did you know I needed you ?"
" Your friends watch your back. And Penelope called and got me here."
Penelope was off to the side talking to Luke and watching them.
Matt said " Garcia, come here a minute."
She smiled and walked over. " Yes Matt?"
He opens his arms and hugged her. " Thank you for knowing what I needed how ever you found out."
She smiled and handed him a brightly colored package.
" There are some cold busters in there as well as a season of Friends. You are to relax and watch it and there will be a quiz when you're feeling better."
Matt smiled. " Got it. After I get home I'll watch it."
" Good feel better Mr. Delta Force. "
He nodded. " I will, I think I just need my own bed."
" Thank you again Penelope I'll take good care of him." Kristy said.
" I know but the team will be checking in too."
" All right that's fine. I think he might need a hug from Chloe. That always helps."
" Everyone needs that after a week like this. "
Luke walked over and held Penelope's hand.
Then Matt and Kristy left to head home arm in arm.
" It's sexy how much he adores his wife." Penelope said softly.
" What about me chica don't I get points for how I feel about you ?" Luke said softly
" That is a whole different animal Mr. Alvez. Take me home."
