Starts at a scene from "Recoil" that I'd missed the first time I saw it. Gates overhears Beckett trying to get a confession, and telling the suspect what Bracken has done to her. Story starts there, and wanders into AU. Uses a couple of deleted scenes found on the S5 DVD's. Romance, drama, family, angst, fluff, etc. in varying degrees.
