It was July in Chicago. 1 month until Noah was 2 and Camille was now 6 months old, starting to form her own little personality.
Erin was getting ready to take them to the park while Jay was getting ready for work. Erin was meant to go back to work in a week. She was stressed and sometimes she thought going back was a horrible idea. Jay said he'd support her with whatever she wanted to do.
"Daddy, I love you" Noah said wrapping his legs around Jay as he was making toast in the kitchen.
Jay smiled and picked him picked him up "Aw I love you too Noah"
"Is daddy going to fight the bad guys again?"
"He sure is Noah!" Erin walked in with Camille on her hip "This little girl wants a hug from her daddy before you leave, she woke up just in time"
"Come here Cammy, god your getting so big. That red hair though" Jay shook his head and got a laugh off Erin.
"Once again, no I didn't have an affair with your brother" she rolled her eyes kissing him and patting his chest.
Camille started playing with the badge that was wrapped around his neck, she was teething and for some reason putting his badge in her mouth was the only thing she wanted.
"I think we really should invest in a fake one of these that she can actually chew on because as soon as I pull it away from her she bursts into tears" Jay laughed putting her onto her play mat that was in the lounge room.
He walked over and pulled Erin in for a hug, they watched as Noah carefully played with his sister.
"We are really lucky you know" Jay said kissing Erin on the forehead.
"I know, he's so good with her."
"So when we going to have another one?" Jay said as Erin pulled back from him giving him the look of the devil.
"Keep it in your pants their detective. I'm not popping out another one of these for a couple years. I want time to soak it all up. Plus I don't want to take our attention away from them, not for a while."
Jay nodded and slouched back on the counter "Okay, but this time can you make the baby with me because, I mean people are started to wonder about Cammy"
Erin punched Jay in the shoulder "Shut up!" They both laughed "Now get your ass to work!"
Jay smiled and kiss her then walked over to Noah and Camille and said goodbye to them before walking out.

Erin had been at the park for about an hour, Noah was running around playing with the other kids while Erin sat on the bench pushing the pram back and fourth while Camille napped.
Couple minutes later Camille woke up from her nap and started to cry. Erin lifted the cover off the pram and picked her up.
"Hey sweet girl it's okay." Erin started rocking her and then decided it was time for them to go home.
She looked up to call Noah over but she didn't see him at first, her heart started to race. Where was he, she asked a woman she'd been talking to to hold Camille and she happily agreed.
Erin walked over to the play equipment, he still wasn't there. Her heart started to race as she picked up the pace and ran over to the sandpit and to the toilets. Still couldn't find him. She started yelling his name which got the attention from the other mums and dads. They all ran over to see what happened.
"Ma'am are you okay?" A nice gentleman asked her.
"My um...my son...Noah, he was just here." Erin said with a scared voice. She couldn't breathe.
Another parent picked up their phone and called 911. Everyone else grabbed their children and crowded around Erin who had tears running down her face.
It took a couple of seconds but then Erin snapped herself out of it, she picked up her phone. Her first instinct was to tell Jay but she thought calling Voight would be a better idea.
She dialled his number, waiting patiently for him to answer and then finally he did.
"Hey Erin, what's up?"
"Hank! I'm at the park and I only looked away for a second. And ummm" her voice became shaky and Voight could hear her sniffling on the other side.
"Erin what's happened?" He yelled a little into the phone, causing Jay to walk to his office and everyone else to stand up from their desks.
"Noah's gone, I can't find him"
Hank took a deep breath, and closed his eyes in worry "Okay Erin, stay were you are. Don't let anyone leave, text me your location. We will see you soon"
"Okay" Erin hung up.
...................................
Back at the district. Just as Voight hung up his phone, Trudy came running up the stairs.
"Hey guys, we have a possible kidnapping at Humboldt Park, gotta roll now"
Hanks head sunk, and he looked around at his team while they stood in confusion as to why he hadn't said anything or took a step.
He turned slightly and placed his hand on Jays shoulder "Jay, it's Noah. That was Erin" Jay nearly fell over.
Those words nearly shot the entire team down, they quickly grabbed all of their things and raced downstairs.
