A week later.

Garcia woke up Early, strange for her day off. Feeling some warmth next to her she looked at the man laying in bed with her and remembered Kevin had come round her place last night. Her stomach felt a bit off, it had for the last couple of weeks. Sitting up; she clutched her stomach and groaned before running into the bathroom retching, emptying the contents of her stomach.

Returning to bed, Kevin was fortunately still asleep, picking up her phone something drew her gaze to the pink pad app, clicking on it she noticed she had completely missed her period. She stared at the screen unable to think. She had to be pregnant and if she was pregnant as she was suspected Kevin would propose straight away, she wasn't ready for marriage.

"Morning Penelope." Keven greeted, a few minutes after waking up and gathering his senses.

Penelope ignored him, to self absorbed in the thoughts of her possibly being pregnant.

"Pen are you in there." Kevin said stroking her hair.

"Go away Kevin." She groaned rolling onto her side away from him.

"Someone's woke up on the wrong side of bed." He replied jokily.

"Please just leave me alone." She said again. Needing some space she got out of bed and went and stretched out along her couch, playing words with friends with JJ.

Kevin layed in bed for a bit longer, Shocked by what had happened. He wasn't sure why she was suddenly acting like this towards him, last night they had a great time together. What if he'd done something wrong? He didn't want to lose Penelope, had he taken things too far last night or what? She only acted like this normally if there was something else on her mind or she was fearful of something.

Getting out of her bed he put on his clothes and headed over the living room where Penelope was. "Shall I go then?"

"Please... look I'm sorry I just need some space right now." She told him honestly.

"Oh. Ok. Well I shall respect your space then." He replied, he thought of giving her a kiss or at least a hug before leaving but did not want to annoy her even more, she's just said she'd wanted space. Heading out of Garcia's door and back to his own place he sighed. He was still clueless of what had caused this adverse change in behavior he hoped it wasn't him who had caused it.

Garcia continued laying down for a second, she was still feeling quite queasy. Playing another word with JJ she got herself up and dressed before heading to a drugstore about an hour away so there was no chance of running into her team members or Kevin.

Walking down the aisle she stood and looked at the multitude of pregnancy tests to choose from, picking one up she shoved it into her basket along with some saltine crackers and lemonade, both of which she knew had helped her colleagues when they had been Pregnant.

Heading home from the store Penelope sighed. What was she going to do if it was positive? If she told Kevin... That drive home seemed like the longest hour in her life, she was anxious for the results, anxious of whether or not she was Pregnant.

Arriving back home she went into her bathroom and did the test. 3 minutes. 3 minutes she would have her answer. 2 minutes. She was growing ever more anxious the time seemed to crawl past. 1 minute, she was scared, not sure whether she wanted to look once the minute had passed.

0. Taking a look at the test. It was positive. Two lines indicating she was pregnant. Tossing the test in the bin she stood there for a minute, just trying to take it in and deal with it.

Heading out of the bathroom Garcia sighed and picked up her phone calling JJ.

"Hey Pen." She answered.

"Hey JJ." She replied.

"How are you Pen?" She asked.

"Uh well I'm Pregnant." She replied sighing but also slightly excited.

"That's a good thing right?" JJ asked, wondering why she was sighing.

"I'm not sure... it's Kevin."

"I know it's Kevin's. Is he not happy?"

"No... Probably quite the opposite. I haven't told him."

"Why havn't you told him P?"

"He's going to propose to me again and I'm not ready for marriage..."

"You need to tell him... He'll find out eventually."

"I know... I know. I'm scared Jayje."

"Scared? Of him proposing?"

"I guess... I'm just not ready, I don't want him to take that the wrong way."

"Ok. Well just try to explain to him nicely that your not ready, if he takes it the wrong way and flips out on you he's probably not worth your love anyway Pen." JJ advised her. "Congratulations" She finished.

"Thanks JJ. Oh and can you not tell anyone else about this, not yet anyway."

"Sure, I won't tell. My lips are sealed."

"Thanks. I'll see you at work on Monday."

"Sure, see ya."

After the phone conversation ended Garcia sat on her couch and ate some saltine crackers while browsing the internet and thinking how she would tell Kevin about the Pregnancy then if he proposed again explain how it wasn't that she didn't love him it was that she didn't want to get married right now. Garcia took a deep sigh and picked up her phone, inviting Kevin round the next day.

At Blakes house Roxanne and Alex were sitting on her sofa talking while Dana and Clara were upstairs in Clara's room.

"How are you doing?" Blake asked, knowing Roxanne had come over as she needed someone to talk to.

"I don't know... I don't really feel anything. I'm just numb." She replied. "I've pretty much spent the last week sleeping. I don't know whether it's an emotional thing or if I'm just physically exhausted after what happened."

"It's understandable that you don't really feel much right now, it happened last week, you probably need more time to accept what has happened and get your head around it." Blake replied.

"Yeah... I guess I need to go back to work and take my mind off it." She added, Roxanne was sure that being off work for the last week had something to do with how she was feeling. Maybe if she went back from work eventually the miscarriage would stop haunting her every waking thought. It had stopped haunting her every waking thought last time - eventually.

"You shouldn't rush yourself into going back to work, I know Hotch would want you to take all the time you need." Blake replied hugging her, being able to tell she was hurting both physically and emotionally.

"I know... I just can't deal with staying at home moping around all day. I need to actually do something." She replied sighing. "Anyway did Clara and Dana fall out or something?" Roxanne asked still unsure why there seemed to much tension between them when they arrived.

"I think so." She replied sighing as she knew what it was over.

"Do you know why?" Roxanne asked.

"Well. The school phoned me yesterday to say that they suspect Clara is bulimic. I tried talking to Clara about it, she denied it stormed off to her room. Then an hour later I heard her throwing up, I went into her room and found food wrappers in the bin. I'm guessing Dana knew and told the school councilor because she wanted to help her." Alex paused and almost started to cry, she worried she would lose Clara too. "I can't lose her aswell." She replied, tears falling down her face now remembering how she lost Ethan.

Roxanne hugged her. "What do you mean aswell?" She asked, as far as Roxanne was aware Blake never had any other childeren.

"I had a son... Ethan. When he was 9 he died. He had an unnamed neurological condition" She replied sadly.

"Oh, Alex. That must be awful, losing him at 9." Roxanne replied pausing. "You won't lose Clara..." Roxanne said trying to reassure Blake, when her 9 month old daughter said "Momma." and looked at Roxanne with adoring eyes.

Roxanne smiled and picked her baby up hugging her while still talking with Blake.

"Is it my fault?" Blake asked.

"Alex, It's not your fault. Not at all. I'm sure Clara will come round eventually." She replied.

"I hope so. You know eating disorders are partially genetic." She said, still feeling slightly guilty.

"Yes... did you ever have an eating disorder?"

"No. But I could still have passed the gene on, or James... or both of us."

"Alex, It's not your fault, even if you did pass on a Gene, that didn't mean she was necessarily going to get an eating disorder. You said it yourself, it's only partially genetic."

"Thanks Roxy... do you worry about Dana? Because of her mom..."

"Sometimes yes. But I try not to think about it too much." She replied.

In Clara's room her and Dana sat in an awkward silence far away from each other. "They're talking about me aren't they." Clara finally said sighing.

"I don't know... there's something up with Roxanne, so they could be talking about that." Dana replied.

"What?" Clara asked.

"I don't know... all I do know is that she has spent most of the week sleeping, she's barley eaten and she started crying when I said about Mrs Collins being pregnant then went up to her room. Oh and Lottie's been round Rose's until this morning." She replied.

"Maybe she had an abortion." Clara suggested.

"No... She hasn't had time... she wouldn't..." Dana said, not sure why someone who had trouble getting pregnant and carrying a baby to term would have an abortion.

"She's pro-choice right?" Clara asked."She comes across that way."

"I don't know..." Dana replied.

"Wait you haven't done your RE homework have you?"

"No. What RE homework?" She asked having forgotten there was any.

"Asking at least 3 people their views on abortion and reasons." Clara replied.

"Oh, that homework." Dana replied and looked through Clara's homework Diary to see when it had to be in for, finding it did not have to be in until next Friday she sighed with relief. "Look I'm sorry I told..." She apologized and waited a little for Clara's reply. There was none. "My mom... my biological mom... her Anorexia killed her." Dana explained. "I don't want to lose you; your my best friend Clara."

"I'm sorry about your mom..." Clara replied, suddenly feeling guilty for how she had treated Dana in the last week. She had her reasons for telling the school councilor.

"It's ok... I'm sorry for telling. I just care about you." Dana replied.

"It's ok Dana, I shouldn't have been so horrible, you did the right thing." Clara admitted then got up to hug her best friend. "Your my best friend too."

"Please get help though Clara... please." Dana repeated, stressing the extent of her worry for her friend and how she wanted her to be happy.

"Ok, I will." She replied. "I just didn't want mom to know... She's so busy with work and everything."

"I know what you mean, but she's your mother and to her you will always come before her Job." Dana replied, thinking back to her legal guardians jobs and how still they never failed to be there for her when she needed them.

"That's the thing, she's always wanted this Job and now she has me to deal with." Clara sighed.

Dana hugged her and sighed. "Clara, just try and talk to her... I'm sure she can balance out you and work." She advised. "Please..." Dana finished with a tone of desperation, she hated to see her best friend going through this, especially after watching her mom die in front of her at the age of 10.

"I'll try." She promised.

"Thankyou. I know I probably don't understand because I've never had an eating disorder and I'm not a specialist in them but if you ever want to talk feel free." Dana told her, wanting to help as much as she could.

A/N: With the Garcia/Kevin thing, this is how I feel she would react considering the circumstance. As for the Genetic thing with the eating disorders I actually spent a while thinking about that before I read about it being partially genetic online. There are signs of eating disorders on both my mum and dads side. So kinda figures that I ended up with one.

I was never Bulimic so sorry if details don't seem real as such. I have the worlds most pathetic gag reflex so actually despite countless attempts of trying to make myself throw up I never have. My technical diagnosis is EDNOS Or OSFED (If looking at the latest DSM) My weight was only low enough for me to be diagnosed as Anorexic after I'd started recovering (I relapsed a little) even then it wasn't that low.

(WHY AM I SUDDENLY TALKING ABOUT MY EATING DISORDER? I am like 70-80% recovered BTW. YAY)

Anyway details put in about Clara's eating disorder are going to be from other peoples experiances, things I've read online and my own experiances. I guess this forshadoes Blake leaving in a way, like she feels it's her fault. Maybe because she's not around enough due to her Job. I'm guessing Clara stays at one of her friends something when Blake and James both arn't around.

There is also potential room to give Dana an eating disorder but I think after seeing her mom die it is unlikely.
