With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts - Eleanor Roosevelt

2 Weeks later I was laying down on the couch when I heard my front door open and in came the shouting of Les, I had gotten out of hospital a week ago and had been living in an apartment with Les and Maddie for the week.
"Hey, I'm home!" She shouted as I heard her feet walking through the room. I chuckled lightly as I sat up in the seat and watched her brown hair fall against her shoulders as she entered the room and smiled at me and sat down on the love seat against the other wall.
"How was school?" I asked and she snorted before covering her mouth with her hand. I raised my eyebrow at her very unladylike manners.
"School was boring, Nothing really was good about it." She stated as I heard the front door once again open and I heard Maddie and Garcia. "Talk about the sweet devils," She murmured as Maddie came running into the living area and runs into her sisters arms as Garcia looked at me and then at them.
"When are you coming back to work?" Asked Garcia to me and I shrugged my shoulders and she gave me a file, I looked over it to see it was Foyet's. I looked at her with a confused look and she looked back at me with a knowing look.
"You've got to be kidding," I said, surprised was the less of it. I couldn't believe he went after Hayley and succeeded. I stood up and looked at Garcia, she nodded knowing what I was going to ask and I ran out of my apartment.

Everything was all in slow motion when I got to Hotch's old house, the one him, Hayley and Jack all shared together once. I saw Rossi at the edge of the yard taking his ear peace and I walked over to him fast paced, "Please tell me it isn't true," I whispered as I got closer to him, and he nodded and I looked at the house, feeling the tears piling up in my eyes.
I felt the tears coming down my face but I pushed them away, this is my fault. I should've been there for her when she needed me, "It's not your fault you know," Rossi said, placing his hand on my shoulder.
"I could've helped her more but I didn't Rossi and that's what I'm blaming myself for," I whispered before walking in to find a scene I didn't wish to ever see for Hotch. He was hold Hayley in his arms, his hand where her gun shot wound was and his other one on her back. I felt more tears come down my eyes as I felt a hand go on my back and I turned to face Morgan, I wrapped my arms around him as I felt more tears go down my eyes.
Spence and JJ also entered the room around the same time as Emily and all looked between me and Morgan and Hotch and Hayley. I couldn't help but feel guilty because Hotch was now going through what I had to go through when my twin was also killed by Foyet all those years ago. I put the blame on myself after her death and I never got over it but I hoped for Hotch's sake and for his mind that he can move on and put her to rest.
It's all I could ask for, for him anyway because he is my boss and what the BAU always say is that were all family, and family always protects and loves each other forever.
