An hour and a half later they were all ready.
"Hey Riley, we need to check on something at the BAU, do you want to come?" JJ asked.
"Sure." Riley said unsure.
Riley and Emily followed JJ out the door and into the SUV.
JJ then started the car and drove towards the BAU.
When they got there, Garcia immediately went over to them.
"Hey my fighting cupcakes, and who is this Angle?" She asked in her usually chirpy tone.
Riley seemed to have frozen on the spot at Garcia's words. JJ looked at her confused before nodding to Emily.
Emily understood and she and Garcia went over to Garcia's lair to get what they needed.
"Who is that?" Garcia asked Emily confused, after they had sat down in Garcia's office.
"That is our neighbor, her name is Riley and it's a long story, so you better sit down."
Meanwhile, JJ led Riley to her office.
JJ was getting worried, Riley seemed like she didn't know what was going on around her, her eyes were empty and she hadn't said a word yet.
JJ sat her on the couch and knelt in front of her.
"Riley. Riley, can you hear me? Come on, sweetie, come back to me. Focus on my voice baby girl, come on." JJ tried to coach the girl.
Riley then snapped out of it and suddenly jumped - pushing JJ's hands away from where they were resting on her knees - and hugged her knees to her chest, before she started to cry.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Riley kept apologizing.
JJ sat down next to the girl and carefully reached out, putting her arms gently around the girl's shaking body, hugging her close.
"I got you. Shh, it's okay. You're okay now, it's just me. Shh. There you go." JJ said as she tried to calm the girl down.
The shaking and crying eventually subsided, but JJ still held her close.
"Better now?" JJ whispered.
Riley nodded. "I'm sorry."
"You don't need to apologize, what happened?" JJ asked quietly.
"You're friend Garcia, can you tell her not to call me Angel" Riley said
"Okay, I'll tell her. Nobody will ever call you that again, I promise, okay?" JJ assured. She didn't know the reason as to why Riley didn't like that name, but she wasn't going to push her right now.
'I'll ask her later at home with Em.' JJ thought to herself.
"Alright, let's go find Em so we can go home, okay?" JJ suggested and Riley just nodded.
