JJ rushed into Hotch's office later that night, her blonde hair and baby bump evident. "Foyet escaped," She stated to the two older men sitting in the room, Rossi and Hotch quickly ran out of Hotch's office and saw that Foyet indeed has escaped.

"We're going to catch him right?" Asked Garcia as the worry swept across her face and Morgan looked back about to say something when they were all interrupted. 

"No were not," Said Grace's voice coming throughout the room. "How did he even escape?" She asked just when Abi rushed in with something in her hand. "No," She whispered handing it over to Reid.

"I think we just found out what he has been doing for the past 10 years," Said Reid. That's when JJ answered Grace's previous question. 

"He was found convulsing blood in his cell, and the police officers there took him to the hospital. That's where he made his escape." JJ said as he blonde hair rolled over her face again.

"He said he would be more famous than we ever knew," Said Morgan "And he was right," Morgan said once more and Grace gave him a worried and propelled look as he turned to look back at the television hanging on the wall. 

That's when her phone started to ring and Grace quickly rushed to answer it, "Agent Reid," She said before walking back out of the offices. Garcia looked up at the two older men, and glared. 

"When were you going to tell me that my best friend was coming back?" She asked and Hotch sighed. 

"I'm sorry Garcia, it slipped our min-" Hotch was about to say when Grace came back in, tears had evidently been going down her face at one time.

"Rene died in hospital due to her accident." She stated and Garcia gasped before running over to Grace and wrapping her arms around her best friend, she didn't care that she had left the BAU. She wanted the happy person she knew back and her crying was not her happy. 

Garcia just cooed at her best friend as she cried into her shoulder, Reid was looking down at the floor, Morgan looked between the TV and his girlfriend, Hotch and Rossi looked between the girl that was breaking down in front of everyone with softened eyes and JJ and Emily both joined in on the hug.

Hotch walked down to Morgan and tapped him on the shoulder, Morgan looked over at Hotch nodding. "Take her home, Your house her house just get her outta here." Hotch said and Morgan nodded before walking over to the four ladies and told them that Grace was coming home with him.

They all let go off her, tell her to get some rest and told her their love yous and goodnights. Morgan watched as the brunette walked fast paced out of the BAU unit and straight to the elevator, in at which speed he nearly couldn't catch up with her. When he did, he saw that her phone was now pressed against her ear and she was crying.

Morgan walked up beside her and pulled her up against his body and let her cry into him, not carrying about the fact that his shirt would more or less be soaked, he loved this girl dearly and didn't like seeing her like this.

Grace's POV 

I walked silently into Morgan's apartment with him right behind me when he shut the door and pulled me back slamming me against the wall in the process, I whimpered only a little as he traced his thumb over my lip before crushing his against mine. 

I felt him push away the rest of the tears that were still coming down my face from the news that my friend had died in hospital. He leaned closer into me, before I heard the three words come out of his mouth, "I love you, Grace so much" He whispered before connecting his lips against mine again. I pushed him back a little, making him stumble back. 

"Did you just say what I think you just said?" I asked him and he nodded, I felt a small smile pulling at the edges of my mouth, "I love you too Derek." I whispered before hugging him.
