Dorothea's POV

"Come in." Aaron Hotchner greets us before Mommy and I entered the office.

"Agent Hotchner?" Mommy asks him and he nods before noticing me.

"I'm Agent Emily Prentiss and this is my daughter, Dorothea Amelia Prentiss." Mommy says while I look around the office.

"Oh, you're Ambassador Prentiss' daughter. I did security clearances for your mother's staff. It was one of my first commands. I believe you were off to Brown at the time." Aaron says, causing me to flinch at that. Elizabeth Prentiss was my biological grandmother and she hated me because my biological father James' in prison. James abused me for my entire life and last month a lady named Erin Strauss rescued me. When she learned that I was a Prentiss, she called Mommy and told her everything including that I didn't have a name. Mommy adopted me and Erin put her in the BAU, knowing that the people there are nice.

"Actually, it was Yale. I've been in the bureau almost ten years now. But I work mostly in the Midwest. St. Louis, Chicago." Mommy says before I grabbed her hand and played with her bracelet. Aaron gives me a kind smile and I gave him a smile of my own.

"I'm supposed to start here today...At the BAU. Dorothea will be with me because she has bad ptsd as the higher ups have informed you." Mommy tells Aaron and he nods.

"We brief new cases every morning at 10:00 am. You can see facilities management about a desk. Dorothea, you can use our desks for your schoolwork." Aaron tells me.

"As long as I can stay with Mommy that is fine. Do you have any vending machines? I have type one diabetes and need to eat something."

"To the right. Agent Jennifer Jareau can help you find them." Aaron says and I nodded before walking out of the room. Bumping into someone, I looked up at the figure and see that it's a blonde woman with blue eyes.

"Hi there sweetheart. My name's Jennifer Jareau. What's your name?" Jennifer greeted me with a smile.

"I am Dorothea Amelia Prentiss. Mommy is starting her new job here and Mr. Hotchner said for you to show me the vending machines. I have type one diabetes and need to eat every few hours."

"I'll show you where it is. Also you don't need to call him Mr. Hotchner. Aaron or Hotch will do. Also everyone calls me JJ." JJ tells me before leading me to the vending machines.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome honey." JJ says with a smile on her face.

**********************

Emily Prentiss' POV

"Did you find the vending machines okay?" Dorothea nodded before sitting on the other chair by my desk. A month ago, I adopted Dorothea as my daughter after learning what my so called brother did to her. Mother hated Dorothea as she believed that she sent him to prison when it was actually Erin that did that.

"JJ showed me where it was Mommy. She said to call her that instead of Jennifer. She is really pretty." Dorothea tells me before eating her bag of chips.

"Remind me to grab you some food later on." Dorothea smiles at me, revealing her crumb covered mouth. Because of Dorothea's ptsd and autism she involuntarily age regresses and one of the things I do to help her is breastfeed her. Dorothea's naturally innocent due to her trauma and autism, but she's also extremely guarded because of what James did to her. While mother didn't like Dorothea, dad adored her and showers her with affection, love and gifts. Dorothea loves learning about animals, so dad got her books on different types of animals.

"Chicken nuggets?" Dorothea asks with a smile while I wiped the crumbs off her face.

"Of course, little one."
