"This is Special Agent Charlie Wilson how can I help?" Charlie answered the phone as she flipped Reid off smiling as he laughed about their previous conversation.

"Charlie hunny it's Debby.."

"Debby what's wrong?" Charlie immediately asked as she heard the wavering in her voice signalling she was crying. Everyone in the room looked at her in concern wondering what was going on.

"It's Grace she....she's......she didn't make it" Debby sobbed. Tears sprung to Charlie's eyes and a hand shot up to cover her mouth. Her team looked upon her with extreme concern and worry as they watched her break down.

"That doesn't make any sense she was going for her transplant it was a perfect match.... she was suppose to be fine.. I...it can't..." Charlie tried to speak but she knew she couldn't without sobbing which is not something she wanted to do in front of her team. They have never seen her like this.

"We thought the same hunny she didn't make it through.. I'm so sorry hunny she loved you, you know that don't you?" Debby explained.

"I know. I'm so sorry Debby I'll see you soon okay" Charlie whispered letting the tears fall as she brought the phone away from her ear and hanging up.

"Charlie?" JJ asked quietly as she placed a hand on her shoulder. The touch made Charlie jump and finally look up to see all her teammates were looking at her worry written all over their faces.

"Is everything alright?" Morgan asked as he knew about Grace's transplant and understood what you were talking about.

"My friend.. she was having a heart transplant this morning and...... she.. she didn't make it" She sobbed. Her teammates looked at her their eyes full of sympathy as they watched her break down in front of them.

"What do you need?" An authoritative but soft voice spoke. Charlie looked up to see Hotch stood there with his straight face but his eyes gave him away.

"I need to see Debby" Charlie spoke as she stood up and walked out of the conference room.


That was two days ago and the team were not expecting to see Charlie for another couple weeks to a month, so when she walked through the doors and sat at her desk the entire team was surprised to say the least.

"Charlie what are you doing here?" Reid asked from his desk opposite her his brows furrowed in confusion.

"I work here..?" Charlie replied confused looking up at her friends. "Is this a trick question?"

"Wilson why are you back it's been two days you need time off to process and heal" Morgan said giving her one of them disapproving big brother looks he likes to dish out.

"I'm fine guys" Charlie laughed them off as she put her bag under her desk and began pulling out her paperwork from her desk draws to start.

"Wilson can I see you in my office please?" Charlie heard Hotch ask softly from next to her desk as he held a cup of coffee in his hands.

"Yeah" She replied softly as well as she looked into his eyes before he walked away towards his office.

Charlie couldn't deny that she didn't have a slight crush on her stern face, constantly serious boss but she did. She always found herself watching him and admiring him and how he works and seems to have time for his son as well as this time consuming job.

Charlie packed her files away back into her draw before standing up from her desk and following him into his office to no doubt be lectured at for her early return to work.
