"Then what about John Legend?" I asked Derek. "All Of Me?" He replied. "All of me loves all of you. Love your curves and all your edges.." He started to sing. I just smiled and blushed a little bit. "My heads under water, but I'm breathing fine.." I sang with him, until we were standing in front of the elevator. He looked at me and smirked. I attempted to fake a smile, but couldn't as my fear of elevators were overwhelming me. He took my hand and said: "You'll be fine."

I have had the fear of elevators since I was a teenager. I was going to visit my grandfather at the hospital and I was unable to walk up the stairs to the third floor, because I had sprained my ankle at soccer practice the day before.

Four people, not counting me, were cramped into the elevator when it suddenly stopped. One of the men in the elevator started to call for help. Luckily for me, one of the females in the elevator was a nurse. My body panicked and I started hyperventilating. I have not once used a elevator since, not even to get onto the BAU floor at work.

Derek held my hand as we walked into the elevator. I closed my eyes shut. He started talking about a concert he went to a couple of years back to make me feel more calm. He's a real sweet guy and one of those guys that thinks about others, not just themself. The elevator stopped and the doors opened.

"See. You survived, again." He said while letting out a little laugh.

When we walked into Aaron Hotchner, the unit chief of the BAU, office they all were there. With cake and presents. They even had those birthday hats on. I was so surprised that I turned around and tried to walked out the door, but Derek was standing in the way. He gave me a hug and whispered into my ear: "Happy birthday, Olivia". Penelope gave me a hat on, saying birthday girl. I looked at Spencer who gave me a piece of the cake.

After a couple of minutes I walked over to Aaron. "Thanks" I said smiling. To my surprise, he smiled back. It was the first time I had seen him smile.

Jennifer walked into the room with a sad expression on her face. "I've got some bad news. We have a case." We almost trop the our plates with cake.

"James Reese once said, There are certain clues at a crime scene which, by their very nature, do not lend themselves to being collected or examined. How does one collect love, rage, hatred, fear...? These are things that we are trained to look for."
