-Its in the past it doesn't matter- Yeah but it still hurts- Ah yes the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it.

"How do you know my parents' names?" Adam asks as Athena walks past, stopping in her tracks when she sees Jo and Adam.

"I've seen your FBI file." Jo said as Athena smiled leaning against the door frame. Jo could see her but Adam had his back towards her. Jo briefly looked at Athena before her attention moved back to Adam.

"I have a file?" Adam asked, a bit worried.

"A thick one." Jo said, showing him how thick. "And I've seen some of those Web sites you visit."

"Well, I- You know, I-- I'm not the only one that uses that computer. I mean, I've got friends that come over and we do research. What Websites are we talking about?" he asked as Jo grabbed ahold of his cheeks and chin.

"I didn't think you'd be that easy. I'm just kidding." she said, reading his cheeks before grabbing a wet wipe and walked towards Athena while wiping away the black from her fingers. Athena held up her hand as Jo returned the high five again.

"About the Web sites, or the file?" he asked as Athena walked towards him.

"I can't believe you actually fell for them." Athena said as Adam spun around seeing her standing there with her hand on her hip as she tilted her head to the side. She still looked the same after these three years.

"No freaking way!! Your back?" he asked, almost sprinting towards her and pulling her into a tight hug.

"Easy there tiger you might break a bone." she said before returning the hug. "I missed you too."

"You have no idea what it's been like here without you." he said before pulling away looking around the lab. "They were driving me crazy."

"I'm sure they did." Athena said with a smile on her face. "It is great to see you Adam. To be back here it's different. This time I'm actually a scientist."

"And a badass detective." he said as she rolled her eyes before looking down at her badge, which was clipped to her jeans.

"Still unreal actually."

"From what I heard you were the best of your group. You deserve this and not to mention you graduating with honors. That's a big deal."

"Thanks again for showing up. You didn't have to."

"Of course I had to. As my rights as best friend I had to support you in everything you did. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else." he said as she smiled before stepping closer and placing a kiss on his cheek.

"Yoh LV!" Danny called out as Athena and Adam looked towards the glass window seeing Danny waving his camera before nodding towards the elevator.

"LV?" Adam asked as Athena shook her head.

"Don't ask." she said before walking out of the lab and joining Danny. "What do you got?"

"We might have found something on the 34th floor."

"Great let's go."

"You don't need a minute with Adam first?" he mocked as Athena punched him in the arm. "Hey."

"I'll punch you again." she threatened before heading towards the elevator where Sheldon was already waiting with a grin on his face. "Don't you start."

"I didn't say anything."

"Good." as the three of them made their way down to the 34th floor police officers were already standing by the elevator doors. The three of them show their badges before getting to work. Danny took the glass window, Sheldon took the display case while Athena took the luminol bottle from Danny's kit, since she hasn't got the chance to get her own kit yet. The floor was an office building for an architect firm and from the fingerprint markings Danny found on the window and Sheldon taking the photos Athena followed the small drops of blood from the elevator all the way to the large glass display of the tower. She crouched down spraying the liquid on the carpet and against the display case.
