"Hey, you texted me?" Fleur walked up to Morgan as they were leaving the offices.

"Yeah." Morgan nodded as he put on his jacket,"I was planning on heading back home to Chicago this weekend and was wondering if you'd want to join me."

"You want me to come with you?" Fleur tilted her head.

"Of course I do." Morgan told her.

"Yeah... Yeah, I'll come." Fleur hummed.

"Great, my mom's gonna love you." Morgan pointed.

"You're letting me meet your mom?" Fleur blinked.

"Why not?" Morgan asked.

"We've only been dating for a couple of weeks." Fleur pointed out.

"So? We can just say we're friends." Morgan told her.

"If that's what you want." Fleur nodded.

"They'll love you, trust me." Morgan assured her.

"Okay... Right. Yes, I'll come." Fleur sighed.

"Great." Morgan smiled.

*********************************

"Elijah, you're missing Reid's magic trick." JJ called him over.

"Oh, lemme see." Elijah hurried over to the desk.

"Okay, just wait.." Reid pointed as Garcia came over.

"Nothing's happening." JJ looked down at it.

"Shh, just- Wait!" Reid pointed.

That's when the capsule shot up into the air, causing Garcia and JJ to shout in surprise.

Although Emily had just walked in, the capsule hitting her in the head,"Oh!"

"I'm so sorry, Emily." Reid shook his head as Elijah burst out laughing.

"What was that?" Emily held her head.

"Don't you recognize a rocket when you see one?" Garcia giggled.

"I was merely demonstrating a physics law. I-I didn't mean to hit-" Reid began to explain himself.

"Oh, show me." Emily smiled as she walked over.

"Alright- Please... Can you all turn around?" Reid hummed.

"Turn around?" Emily raised a brow.

"Yeah, he's not going to show you how it's done." JJ shook her head.

"A magician doesn't reveal his secrets." Reid told them as they turned.

"I thought you said it was physics." Emily turned back.

"Physics magic." Reid pointed.

"Trust me, it will not do you any good to argue with him, my dear." Elijah patted her shoulder.

Reid then created his 'magic',"Alright, turn back and observe."

The group watched as the little capsule sizzled... Before it shot into the air again! But this time... It landed at Hotch's feet.

All the girls began walking away as Hotch lifted the capsule up,"Physics magic?"

"Yes, sir." Reid nodded as Elijah placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Reid, we talked about this." Hotch walked over, placing the capsule on his desk.

"I'm sorry, sir." Reid looked down.

"You're starting to get some distance on those." Hotch nodded and walked off.

"So he does have a sense of humor?" Emily asked.

"Sometimes." Reid shrugged.

"Hey, where's Morgan?" Emily looked around.

"And Fleur, actually." JJ blinked,"Elijah?"

"Chicago." Elijah answered,"Morgan goes every year for his mother's birthday and he invited Fleur this time."

"Letting the girlfriend meet the mother. Exciting." Garcia hummed.

"I miss them." Elijah sighed.

"They'll be back soon." Reid assured him, holding his hand.

Elijah smiled, gently squeezing Reid's hand,"That's good."

*********************************

"I think we got everything for your mom's cake." Fleur checked the list as she and Morgan left the store.

"I know she didn't put butter on the list, so I hope she doesn't need an ymore." Morgan sighed.

They then turned the corner where they came across some men. Gangsters.

"Derek, who's this?" Rodney asked.

"Step off, Rodney." Morgan stood between the two, turning to Fleur,"Get in the car."

"Come on Derek, it's fine." Fleur sighed.

"I said get in the car." He pointed.

"That's okay baby, I'll get with you a little while later, huh?" Rodney hummed.

"Yeah, in your dreams." Fleur rolled her eyes as she walked to the car.

"Most definitely, all night long baby girl."

"You better step off before I make you wish you never walked up on me." Morgan glared at Rodney.

"You think you're a badass now because they pay you to wear that gun, Mr FBI?" Rodney got in Morgan's face.

"Rodney, I proved a long time ago that I don't need a gun to take you out." Morgan stood his ground.

"Past history? That's a dangerous thing for you to count on, my friend." Rodney scoffed.

"Walk away."

Rodney stared at Morgan before he laughed,"Ayo, I'll get to you a little later." He looked at Fleur.

"Go to Hell." Fleur crossed her arms.

"Bitch." Rodney muttered to Morgan as he walked off, his boys following him afterwards.

"I'm really sorry about him." Morgan shook his head as he turned to Fleur,"You alright?"

"He's a fool, Derek. Don't let him get to you." Fleur took his hand.

"He shouldn't talk to you like that." Morgan sighed,"Come on, I'm taking you home. There's something I've got to do."

"I'm sure I'll have fun making the cake with Desi and Sarah." She hummed.

"You will, they'll love having you around." Morgan nodded as they started walking.

*********************************

"One, two, three." Derek counted down as the cake was brought though.

The girls all began singing happy birthday and clapping as Fran smiled at them all.

"Go ahead, Mama." Derek laughed.

"Did you make this yourself?" Fran asked, looking at the girls.

"We did, with the help of Fleur. Her moms are bakers." Sarah nodded.

"It was so sweet of you to come here, I bet it tastes wondeful." She smiled at Fleur.

"Mama, they wouldn't let me help so I don't know how good its gonna taste." Morgan shook his head.

"Oh no, no. Do you remember the Christmas fiasco of 1994?" Sarah pointed.

"I remember that." Fran clapped.

"Whatever. That was twelve years ago, let it go!" Morgan shook his head.

"No, no. We still get cards from the fire department." Desi pointed.

"Mama, you see how they treat your baby boy?" Morgan turned to her.

"You be good to your brother." Fran chuckled as Fleur put the plates out.

"Uh huh, what she said." Morgan nodded.

"You got the baby part right at least." Fleur hummed.

"Hey! Not a chance!" Fleur laughed as the girls waved their hands,"Go on Fran, make a wish."

Fran smiled and blew out the candles.

"There it is." Morgan clapped.

"Thank god, I am starving." Sarah chuckled.

Later on, they were all sat on the couch as Fran opened her presents.

"What is it?" She asked, looking at Morgan.

"It's a remote starter Ma, you hit that button right there and it starts your car from inside the house." Morgan nodded.

"Why would I do that?" Fran questioned.

"So it's nice and warm for when you get in." Fleur hummed.

"Really?"

"Yeah, no more cold cars in the winter, Ma." Morgan smiled.

"I would like one for Christmas." Desi picked the box up.

"Not for that bucket you drive." Morgan hummed.

"Shut up!" Desi gasped, pushing him back as the sisters walked off.

"We miss you around here, baby." Fran kissed his hand.

"I know." Morgan sighed.

"Your sisters wish you were around more."

"You know the unit I work for is only outside of Virgina." Morgan held her hand,"You know that."

"Well, you're careful, right? I lost your dad... I can't lose you." Fran shook her head.

"You won't." Morgan assured her.

"Good, because you owe me some grandbabies." Fran pointed, looking between Fleur and Morgan.

"Not for a long time." Fleur laughed.

That's when there was a knock at the door and Morgan stood up,"Would you look at that, saved by the bell."

"A bunch of them." Fran pointed to them.

"Oh, come on, Ma. Stop." Morgan chuckled as he walked up to he door.

Once Derek opened the door, it was the cops of the neighbourhood at the door.

"Gordinski?" Morgan raised a brow.

"You armed?' Gordinski asked.

"Excuse me?" Morgan blinked.

"Are you wearing a gun?" Gordinski spoke firmer.

"No, not right now." He answered.

"Then turn around." Another cop spoke, pulling handcuffs out.

The sound of the handcuffs made Fleur get up from the couch, walking over to Derek. She had been with him the full day what could he have done?

Morgan scoffed,"This is some sort of sick joke, right?"

"Don't make us get physical. It'll only make it harder for your family. You're under arrest, Derek." Gordinski nodded.

Once Derek was taken away, Fleur quickly turned to the Morgan's family,"Let me call my team. It's a mistake, surely. Don't panic, okay?"

"He's always tried pinning anything he can on Derek." Sarah shook her head.

"Then I'm sure he's just found a case and because he's in town he's grabbed him." Fleur assured them,"I'll be back."

She went to the room her and Morgan were staying in before she called Elijah.

"Yes, darling? What is it?" Elijah asked, the sound of running water in the background.

"We have an issue, a big one." Fleur sighed.

"What's the issue?" Elijah questioned as the water stopped.

"This cop turned up- He arrested Derek. You and the team need to get down here."

"I'll be there as fast as I can." Elijah assured her,"And so will everyone else."

"Sorry to interrupt bathtime." Fleur sighed.

"Trust me, I was done. I just need to find something to put on." Elijah assured her,"Just stay calm, we'll sort this all out."

"I'm gonna stay with Fran and his sisters, call me once you're here." Fleur held her head.

"I will, darling."

"Love you, Eli." Fleur hung up.

*********************************

"Special Agent Hotchner, I'm with the FBI. I'm looking for Detective Gordinski." Hitch announced as the team walked in, holding up his badge.

"I got this, Chuck. How you guys doing? I'm Wally Dennison, CPD." Dennison walked over.

"Where's Agent Morgan?" Elijah asked.

"Detective Gordinski's in with the suspect now." Dennison nodded.

"I need to see him." Hotch stated.

"When my partner is finished talking to him." Dennison put his hands on his hips.

"I have your superintendent's personal cell number. And in the interest of not running roughshod over another police agency, I've resisted calling him for now." Hotch crossed his arms,"I need to see Agent Morgan now."

"I'll get Gordinski, he's the primary." Dennison walked off.

"I don't like them calling him a suspect." Elijah shook his head.

"Me neither.' Hotch sighed.

After a while, Gordinski walked over to the group.

"Detective Gordinski, CPD."

"You think an FBI Agent, a BAU Profiler committed a homicide?" Hotch asked.

"Actually, it's three murders at least, over fifteen hears." Gordinski corrected.

"You think he's a serial killer?" Fleur scoffed.

"This is ridiculous." Reid nodded.

"Has he been charged with anything?" Hotch raised a brow.

"I got seventy two hours for that." Gordinski shrugged.

"I'd like to see him."

"Be my guest, right this way." Dennison lead Hotch off.

"Agent Gideon, right? I owe you a big thank you, I had no suspects at all until you looked over my case for me and sent me this profile." Gordinski grabbed a file and handed it to him,"Everything in it leads to that son of a bitch, Derek Morgan."

"The fuck did you just call him?" Elijah cursed as Gideon looked down at the file.

"He's had it out for Derek since he was a kid." Fleur sighed.

"I profiled him?" Gideon asked.

"It's all right there." Gordinski nodded.

"Detecive, a profile is just a guide." Reid shook his head.

"Yeah, well this one guided me to him." Gordinski pointed.

"They're really more useful in the elimination of suspects, rather than the inclusion." Emily sighed.

"That's not the way you presented it to me." Gordinski turned to Gideon.

"If I confused you, I'm sorry." Gideon chuckled.

"Ha, I'm not confused at sll." Gordinski smiled.

"I think you are." Elijah muttered.

"Look, whatever is in here that made you consider Agent Morgan a suspect has to be a coincidence. You can't rely solely on this." Gideon pointed to the file.

"You're right, I'm not." Gordinski told him before he began to explain,"Fifteen years ago, I was a new Detective. One of my first cases was a black kid, twelve or thirteen years old, found strangled in a vacant lot near here." Gordinski began explaining.

"The boy was a John Doe, right?" Gideon asked.

"Still unidentified to this day." Gordinski nodded.

"A twelve year old kid that no one reported missing?" Fleur crossed her arms.

"Ever. Four years ago, another body turns up. Same MO. Worked that case just as hard, came up with just as much nothing." Gordinski continue,"Nobody in the area had ever seen the kid before."

"No ones looking for these kids?" JJ asked.

"Then a few months back, I attended a seminar that you taught at CPF Headquarters." Gordinski looked over at Gideon,"I told you about my case. You send to send you the files. You'd look them over."

"So... What even is this profile?" Elijah raised a brow.

"There are about three million people in Chicago." Gordinski began,"Your profile said I was looking for a black male, twenty five to thirty five, with a knowledge to the area. Non-threatening to children. Either he knows them or is normal enough that he doesn't scare them."

"Still looking a little vague there, sir." Elijah commented

Gordinski continued,"A probable criminal record. It also said the way the body was placed gently on a mattress, not just tossed on the ground, indicated someone who was probably consumed with guilt, especially for the first victim. Your exact words are, 'With a guilt ridden offender, the BAU postulates that the first victim is the most important and the Unsub may still visit the place of the crime or even the victim himself.' Care to guess who visits my first victim everytime he's in town?"

"He can't just be visiting the victim. There must be more than that." Gideon shook his head.

"Sure. You said the Unsub might try to inject himself into the investigation, keep tabs on it. Morgan has called our Headquarters many times since he joined the Bureau, always about this case."

"So wait, he talked to you about it?" Fleur tilted her head.

"Headquarters. He'd never call me." Gordinski shook his head,"After I got your profile, I checked airline records. Turns out, Derek had just left Chicago when the other body turned up."

"Show us all your evidence." Fleur told him.

Gordinski lead them into a room with boards and his 'evidence',"Then yesterday, another kid ends up dead and the last person he was with was Derek Morgan. In the kids pocket, was one of his FBI business cards, his cell number written on the back of it. In fact, every time Morgan's in town, he hangs out with kids."

"This is all just coincidence." JJ scoffed.

"A hell of a lot of coincidences." Gordinski pointed.

"It's purely circumstantial." Emily shrugged.

"So's a fingerprint." Gordinski shrugged,"Did I mention that Morgan found the body in 1991? Hidden way back in a vacant lot? Now, don't you teach that when a body's hard to find, the person finding it is always a suspect?"

"There are key pieces of the profile that don't fit, Detective. The age, twenty five to thirty five. Morgan was fifteen or so at the time." Reid stated.

"It also says that age is hardest to predict and that I should never exclude someone simply because of a discrepancy with age." Gordinski countered.

"What about the speculation that since he didn't manage to leave any evidence at the scene of the crime, that he most likely has a criminal record or previous law enforcement knowledge? Derek wasn't even in the Bureau yet when the first body was found." Reid explained.

"He may not have had a knowledge of law enforcement but Derek Morgan definitely had a criminal record." Gordinski crossed his arms.

Elijah looked him up and down,"Somehow I'm struggling to belive you "

Gordinski waved Elijah off and walked back to his desk.

Fleur turned to Gideon,"Let me talk to Gordinski, tell him exactly what me and Derek have done since we got here."

"I would, but I doubt he'd belive you. We're dealing with a desperate detective." Gideon sighed,"Three dead boys with no evidence at all, so he applies the profile to someone he already suspects."

"One begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts." Reid quoted,"It's one of Sherlocks Holmes favourite quotes."

"We need to figure out who actually killed these boys before they decide to charge Morgan." Gideon shook his head.

"What do you want us to do?" Emily asked.

"The last victim was someone Morgan was seen with. Conveniently, Morgan was already a suspect in the other two." Elijah looked up at her from his chair.

"Someone set him up." Fleur nodded,"I was with Derek, he didn't do this."

"We should consider Morgan a victim." Gideon agreed,"Howards, you Reid and Dean go talk to his family, learn about him, especially around the time of the first murder."

"I can drive there." Fleur nodded.

"Okey-doke, lead the way." Elijah hummed.

"Let me come with you, police escort." Dennison walked up.

"No thank you." Fleur hummed.

"Actually, I think it would be a good idea." Gideon told her.

"Right." Fleur muttered, turning to Dennison as they walked out to the car,"Have you checked out Rodney Harris? The gangbanger?"

"Not yet." He responded.

"He's trouble, you should." Fleur shrugged.

*********************************

"Fran, I've brought some friends... Is it okay if we just look through some of Derek's things? We need to clear him." Fleur sighed to Derek's mother.

"Is Derek okay?" Fran asked her.

"Yeah, he wouldn't let us go down there." Sarah sighed.

"Our boss is with him, he's okay." Fleur assured him.

Sarah then handed the two boys some cake from the night before.

"Thank you, darling." Elijah hummed.

"Did he tell you Gordinski's been harassing him since he was a kid?" Sarah asked.

"Why's that?" Reid ate his cake.

"Well, you'd have to ask that bastard." Sarah shrugged.

"Oh, Sarah." Fran shook her head.

"It's true." Sarah told her.

"Sure, it's true." Dennison rolled his eyes.

"What are you even doing in my mother's house?" Sarah questioned.

"They asked me." Dennison sighed.

"Not really." Fleur shook her head.

"I don't understand how they think he could do this." Fran sighed.

"Someone may be trying to make it look like he hurt those kids." Fleur explained.

"And the police believe that?" Sarah questioned.

"Just following the evidence." Dennison muttered.

"He's an FBI Agent." Desiree pointed.

"Actually, law enforcement officials are just as probable statistically to commit a crime as anyone else. Look at the cross section of a society. There's a general population and a small fraction of this percentage is-" Reid rambled.

"He's not actually saying we belive Derek is involved with this." Elijah cut him off as he took a bite of cake.

"Oh, no, no! Yeah, not at all! I'm merely speaking theoretically." Reid nodded.

"You're Doctor Reid, right? And Elijah?" Desiree asked.

"Mhm." Elijah nodded,"That's us. "

"Derek talks about you two." Desiree hummed.

"He does?" Reid smiled softly.

"All the time." Desiree nodded.

"Someone may be trying to make it look like this was Derek." Fleur sat down.

"But Derek loves kids." Fran sighed,"Whenever he's here, he always visits the Youth Centre."

"The Youth Centre?" Fleur raised a brow.

"The Upward Youth Centre." Fran nodded.

"Does it have some sort of significance for him?" Reid asked.

"What are you saying, that there's something in it for him other than giving back to the poor kids of the community?" Sarah questioned.

"That is not what we're saying." Elijah put his arm around Reid.

"Sarah, Reid and Elijah are like brothers to Derek. We're all here trying to help, when we ask a question, it isn't to denigrate or demean anything he's done. We just have to know everything, so we can figure out where to look next. Is there a special significance to the Youth Centre?" Fleur sighed.

"The Youth Centre saved his life." Fran told her,"My husband, their father, was killed when he tried to stop a robbery. Derek was with him, he was ten. A year or so later, he started getting into trouble."

"What kind of trouble?" Elijah asked.

"He started running around with older kids. They would give him money to run errands for them. Not drugs, no. Derek would never disgrace his father's memory." Fran sighed.

"But they were gangbangers." Sarah pointed.

"So people started looking at Derek like he was one of them. One night he and a friend were attacked by some boys from another gang. Big fight. And one of the other boys head split open." Fran continued.

"And that was the first time Gordinski arrested him. Now, he wasn't a Detective then, just a street cop and from that day on, whatever happened in the neighborhood, he'd pick Derek up for it." Sarah explained.

"Probably because he was involved." Dennison shrugged.

"Like hell he was." Sarah glared at him.

"Stan never arrested anyone who didn't need arresting." Dennison stood up.

"He did with Derek."

"Until Carl Buford stepped in." Fran nodded.

"Carl Buford?" Reid raised a brow.

"He runs the Youth Centre." Dennison shrugged.

"He took Derek under his wing, mentored him. He became like a surrogate father for him." Fran explained,"He taught him how to play football and that changed Derek's life. He got a scholarship to college with jt, got his degree."

"Where is Carl Buford now?" Fleur asked.

"He still runs the Youth Centre." Dennison nodded.

"I'd like to speak to him. Detective do you think you could take me over there?" Fleur turned to Dennison and he nodded.

"Wait, just you?" Reid asked.

"I thought you and Elijah could stay here and go through the stuff. The Morgans won't mind." Fleur assured him.

"Good idea, yeah." Elijah nodded slowly

*********************************

"Hello? Mr Buford?" Fleur knocked at the office door as her and Dennison walked in,"Wow... This guys honored by everybody but the Nobel Society."

"That's Carl Buford." Dennison nodded.

"Who are you?" A young boy walked through.

"I'm with the FBI." Fleur turned

"Do you know Derek Morgan?" The boy asked.

"I do. He's my- He's a friend of mine." Fleur nodded.

"I've been trying to call him." He told her.

"He's a little busy right now. Is there something I can do to help you?" Fleur walked to the boy.

"I just... A friend of mine, he was killed yesterday." The boy sighed.

"Do you know something about who might have done it?" Dennison asked.

"No." He sighed, shaking his head,"Derek's always telling me that if I need to talk to somebody about anything, I can call him. I guess I just wanted to.. I don't know.."

"I'll tell you what, why don't you give me your name and I'll let him know that you've been trying to reach him." Fleur nodded.

"James Barfield." James told her.

"Does he know where to find you?"

"He can find me here."

"Anytime?"

"All the time." James nodded.

*********************************

"Did you find anything at Derek's?" Fleur asked as the boys walked back into the police station.

"Nothing that would help with the investigation." Elijah sighed,"I got to keep some cake, though."

"It was good cake, wasn't it?" Fleur pointed.

"Very good cake." Reid nodded.

"I made it with Desi and Sarah." Fleur nodded.

"Your mum's taught you well." Elijah smiled as they approached the others.

"Thank you." Fleur hummed,"What did Garcia find out?" She turned to JJ.

"Well, Morgan has a criminal record. It was expunged but.." JJ sighed as she held out a list.

Fleur looked down at the list,"This... This isn't Derek. He's not like that."

Elijah shook his head,"I'll be right back."

"He probably gave him them all." She pointed at Girdinski.

"Don't doubt it, darling. Make sure you keep him busy." Elijah whispered as he walked off.

Fleur looked at Gordinski before she headed over. Elijah nodded before heading towards the room where Morgan was being held.

"Elijah? Oh man, am I glad to see you." Morgan sighed.

"I'm getting you out of here." Elijah pointed,"You're innocent and I know it."

"What do the others think?" Morgan asked,"Flo, she doesn't think I did this, right?"

"Of course she doesn't, Fleur's a smart girl." Elijah tossed Morgan his jacket.

"You're gonna get caught, kid." Morgan caught his jacket.

"I don't think so." Elijah shook his hesd,"Even if I did, it would be worth it."

Morgan patted his arm,"My folks okay?"

"They will be, they don't think you've done this either."

"Thank god." Morgan sighed,"Cover me?"

"Of course." Elijah nodded.

Morgan nodded before he checked the hallway and left. After Morgan left, Elijah walked out shortly after, his hands in his pockets.

"What did you do?" Fleur walked back to Elijah.

"I merely helped out my brother." Elijah shrugged.

"Did you... You let him out, didn't you?" Fleur whispered.

Elijah smiled,"No~"

"I don't know if I'm happy or mad at you." Fleur sighed.

"Uh, you're happy with me." Elijah patted her shoulder.

"I am happy with you." Fleur held his arm,"But... The others might not be."

"They don't need to know." Elijah shook his head.

"Hey! Did we give him the slip?" Dennison walked up to everyone.

"What do you mean?" Hotch asked as Gordinski headed towards the room.

"You let him escape?" Gordinski scoffed, walking over.

"I think this is just poor planning on your part." Elijah raised his hands.

"Agent Deans did nothing." Hotch sighed.

Elijah smiled,"Besides, he's out there now. You need to go find him."

Gordinski turned away, scoffing.

"All the evidence I have points towards Carl Burford." Fleur crossed her arms.

"And my best guess at where Derek is going... Is to find Buford." Elijah nodded

Fleur then overheard Gordinski telling his officers that Morgan was a threat so she quickly stormed over.

"You tell your officers that he is not a threat." Fleur pointed.

"Like hell I will." He shook his head.

"But this-"

"Listen here, lady. As far as I'm concerned, he is a threat, okay?" Gordinski shook his head before starting to put on his jacket.

"Shout at me again, and I'll show you a threat." Fleur warned and turned around,"He's beyond reason, we have to find him first."

"Any ideas?" Gideon asked.

"Well, I have one." Elijah raise his hand.

"Yes?"

"Morgan's mother said that Buford practically raised him after his father died. Took him on trips, spent all his time with him, basically became a surrogate father." Elijah crossed his arms.

Fleur realised,"I think I know what he was afraid we'd find."

"Do you remember the way to the Youth Centre?" Elijah asked.

"I do, come on." Fleur nodded.

*********************************

As the group made their way through the Youth Centre, they heard Carl and Derek speaking.

"I never hurt you, Derek." Carl shook his head,"You could've said no."

"You're under arrest, Carl." Gordinski spoke in shock.

"I've helped a lot of kids." Carl looked over at him.

"Let's go." Gordinski took Carl's arm, Dennison at the other.

"The neighbourhood won't be the same without me. It'll be worse without the centre." Carl shook his head.

"Somebody will keep this centre running. The neighbourhood will, I will." Morgan nodded.

"Wait- Wait. Wait!" Carl looked into Morgan's eyes,"Derek. Isn't there something you can do for me?"

"You go to hell." Was all Derek said.

Dennison then dragged Carl put of the door. Gordinski lingered behind, looking as if he wanted to say something to Morgan, but he soon followed after Dennison.

"Derek." Fleur ran in, quickly hugging him.

Morgan held Fleur close, shutting is eyes. He was still trying to stay strong, even now.

"It's okay." Fleur assured him,"You can let go."

Morgan hid his face in Fleur's shoulder as he broke down, sobbing.

Fleur sighed and rubbed his back,"He's gone now."

"I'm sorry- For not telling any of you." Morgan told them.

"We understand." Hotch assured him.

"I didn't want you to find out like this.."

"It doesn't matter what happened in the past. You're a good man." Gideon nodded.

"I'd be an asshole if I judged you for what happened." Elijah shook his head.

"We'll leave you two to be alone. We'll be waiting." Hotch told Morgan and Fleur who were still holding each other.

"Thank you." Morgan nodded to them.

The team then left the room, Fleur slowly pulling away from Morgan and looking at him,"Take a deep breath."

Morgan took in a deep breath, reaching out and taking Fleur's hand.

"You're so strong... For keeping this in." Fleur squeezed his hand.

"It's been... Difficult." Morgan nodded slowly,"But I got through it."

"I'm proud of you, Derek." Fleur gave a small smile.

"Thanks, Flo." Morgan smiled softly.

"I... I went through something similar... So I want you to know that you're not alone." Fleur sighed.

"You did?" Derek asked slowly.

Fleur nodded,"We both survived."

"And now we have each other."

"I'm glad we do." Fleur kissed his hand.

"I'm glad we do." Fleur kissed his hand.

Morgan smiled at her, gently holding her cheek.

"All those other boys he hurt... They're getting their justice." Fleur assured him.

"He won't be able to hurt anyone again. Ever." Morgan nodded.
