"Has anyone heard from Hotch?" Fleur sat down in her chair.

"Not as of recently." Elijah sat on Reid's desk, a cup of coffee in his hand.

"Clean." Reid held up his hand sanitizer.

"Clean." Elijah sighed, holding put his hand.

"Thank you." Reid put the sanitiser on him.

"I think Haley went into labour." Morgan shrugged.

"Oh, that's great." JJ smiled.

"Oh I can't wait to see the baby." Fleur clapped.

"I can." Elijah sighed.

"You don't like kids?" Garcia gasped.

"You guys do?" Elijah raised a brow.

"They're so cute! Just like puppies and kittens and-" Garcia rambled.

"Right- Right." Elijah shook his head,"Look, I just don't see the appeal."

"I don't like them either." Elle chuckled.

"Couldn't agree more." Elijah looked like he was going to say more but he stopped himself.

"Elle." Fleur spoke through a cough.

"Mhm." Elijah nodded quickly.

"What? Did I say something?" Elle blinked.

"No, it's just an Elijah thing." Morgan assured her.

That's when they heard a knock at the office door, Hotch and Haley at the door with baby Jack in their arms.

"Oh... Lovely." Elijah nodded slowly.

"Let me see!" Fleur squealed and got up,"Oh my goodness, you guys he's adorable."

"Thank you." Hayley smiled.

"If you find baldness and wrinkles attractive." Elijah rolled his eyes.

"Oh, look at his itty bitty nose." Garcia slapped Elijah's chest.

"Don't you want one of those?" Fleur turned to Morgan.

"I think I'll just stick to practicing." Morgan smirked.

Fleur made a face to say, 'As if' before looking at Elijah who was making the same face.

"Fucking virgin." Elijah coughed.

"Congratulations." Elle walked over with a smile.

"Thanks." Hotch nodded fo her,"She's amazing, I'm a little terrified."

"We better be going." Haley took Jack from Hotch.

"It was a pleasure seeing you, Mrs Hotchner." Reid nodded to her.

"Bye Hayley." Elijah waved.

"Bye." Everyone waved and walked off.

"We got a case." Elle sighed.

"What case.. Elle?" Elijah asked her.

"Come on." Elle nodded to the Conference Room.

The group looked between each other before making their way to the conference room.

"Crawford family, murdered three days ago in their home." Gideon showed the photos.

"I saw it on the news." Morgan nodded.

"They were found in the basement of their house." Gideon sighed.

"Bags packed for a vacation they never took." JJ added.
