"This is not what I mean by 'fun' at all- you've become unhinged Cam!" Morgan laughed as he clung onto the side of the crates that wabbled and almost toppled Cameron off since she was too busy laughing and wiggling his crate to focus.

"That's because you've fallen like 3 times- I think we're technically disqualified."

"Psh! You pushed me off at least 2 of those times- and I'm not leaving my teammate up on crates on their own, no man left behind!" He joked and pulled himself up next to her.

"You forgot to bring then next crate up" she chuckled, he looked down at it still on the floor far below them.

"Oh."

"I'll go get it" Cameron patted his arm and went to step off but Amanda yelled.

"We have a winner!"

Morgan and Cameron both looked over at the stack opposite them where a serious looking Reid and a bored looking Emily stood on their stack of crates, having made their own stacks seperatly and then climbing them.

"I thought we were meant to do it to one stack- like a team?" Cameron quizzed to Morgan who shrugged.

"Who knows, but we won in my books- we had fun unlike those two sour faces over there."

Cameron held up her arms in the air in a cheer, "we did the fun!"

Morgan laughed, threw his arms up too and slightly teased her tone, "we did the fun!"

The crates wabbled from his sudden movement and he grabbed Cameron at the waist before she could fall off but this erupted a startled fear in her and Morgan immediately pushed himself back, going to apologise but not noticing his footing and falling off the crates.

"Holy shit-" he fell away from the crates as they tumbled, but Cameron was still on them and because he was falling and no one was holding the slack line at the bottom, Sam busy untying Emily and Reid and Amanda glaring at Cameron instead of holding it- until her eyes widened in shock as Cameron flew up and immediately dropped with the slack line, falling down into the crates as they fell around her unlike Morgan who fell away from them to safety.

"Cam!" Morgan yelled as he hung safely on the cord, watching the crates all topple on to her and her hit the floor.

"Cameron!" Hotch was immediately running over, over taken with panic as he threw the crates off the stack to find her- pausing when he heard a noise from under the crates and spotted Cameron.

"Are you laughing?" He quizzed.

"That was so much fun!" She beamed, not noticing the scrapes on her and a small cut on her face from the wooden crates.

Hotch couldn't help his smile and held out his hand to help her, "falling off a height like that with no bungee does not sound like fun."

She chuckled as she took his hand and stood up, pausing at how she automatically had her hand in his and how comfortable it felt again.

No fear, not even a flinch, not even a thought of anyone else's hand- just him, a safety from his touch.

She smiled at it slightly and took back her hand, "thank you Agent Hotchner."

He nodded and stepped back, unable to fight the feeling in his stomach and empty feeling in his hand without hers there.

"Cam! Are you okay?!" Morgan ran over to her, ripping off his bungee as Sam ran over.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know the slack wasn't being manned!"

"It's fine, don't worry" Cameron chuckled, "just a couple of scrapes, falling is quite exhilarating once you forget about the ground at the bottom."
