The next day, Sunday, Bella woke up and her head was hurting. She asked for some medicine and after taking it she ended up sleeping again.

"I think we need to do something to cheer her up" Penelope said.

"Like what?" Derek asked.

"I'm not sure yet" Penelope said.

"We could paint her room" Derek said. "The three of us, together. That would be fun"

"Yeah!" Garcia said. "Can we do it today?" She asked.

"We need to get the paint first. We could try tomorrow" Derek said and Penelope agreed.
So they spent the day at home just hanging out.

In Boston,
JJ had arrived around 10am to find Emily awake fighting with a nurse about pain killers.

"Miss, you need to take this" the nurse said.

"I'm not in pain. I already told you" Emily lied. She was in a bit of pain but she just didn't like feeling heavy and drugged all the time.

"You have to" the nurse said "please"

JJ walked in laughing.

"Wow. I leave for a few days and get back to this. You need to listen to them. You're not a doctor" JJ said.

"Hi" Emily smiled and they hugged.

"Please make her take this" the nurse said placing two pills down and left the room.

"How are you feeling?" JJ asked.

"I'm alright" Emily said. The look on her face exactly like JJ had seen in Isabella.

"Wow. You taught your daughter well" JJ said.

"What?" Emily asked.

"Lying" JJ said making a face.

"Is she doing that?" Emily asked.

"What do you think?" JJ said with a sorry face.

"Well she is a Prentiss after all" Emily said and JJ couldn't help but laugh.

"How is she doing?" Emily asked more serious now.

"It's been tough." JJ said. "She's really down and she doesn't really like going out"

"Are you guys making her go out?" Emily asked.

"We're trying to get her to want to" JJ said.

"She won't go. You have to force her. Tell Morgan he needs to force her because if he doesn't she will shut herself out." Emily said and JJ nodded.

"The judge ordered her to see a psychologist for 5 weeks" JJ said.

"Oh no" Emily said quick.

"Why oh no?" JJ said.

"That won't work at all. It's just... We've tried it before and she doesn't talk. She's just gonna cry the whole time" Emily explained.

"When did you try that? She didn't see one when John died" JJ said.

"When she was at boarding school. They had a psychologist there and since Bella was having a hard time adjusting to everything the principal ordered for her to be seen once a week" Emily said.

"For the entire time she was in that school?" JJ asked surprised.

"Yeah." Emily said.

"And she didn't talk at all?" JJ asked.

"No. Not even once" Emily said.

"Wow" JJ said. She just knew she had to somehow tell Derek that Emily and John had been through that before.

"Well..." JJ stared. "I talked to your doctor and he said they can take your stitches out today"

"Really?" Emily asked relieved.

"Yes and if they do that we can get you out of here in two or three days, if your exams are clean" JJ said.

"Do you know where I'll be going to?" Emily asked.

JJ reached inside her pocket and took a piece of paper out. She handed it to Emily who opened it and just stared at the word...

"Paris"

Monday morning, Morgan woke Isabella up while Garcia got ready.
"Bella" he said running his hand on her arm. She moved a little. "Wake up princess. It's time for school" he said and she opened her eyes.

"Morning" Bella said fully opening her eyes.

"We gotta go. Come on" Derek said. Bella got up and went to get ready. They sat to eat breakfast together and Bella remembered Derek would be back at work for real now.

"Uncle Morgan?" She said really low.

"Yes?" He said and looked at her.

"Are you going on a case today?" She said as tears filled her eyes. She was terrified of that.

"I don't know yet princess" he said feeling bad. Both grownups could see the girl was scared about that.

Bella took some time to think and then said "I don't want you to go" and the tears started falling.
Derek took a deep breath. He knew that would be hard for the girl.

"Look, I don't think I'll be going anywhere today, okay? But if I do you're going to be okay with Garcia" he said and she just looked down.
"But I don't think I'll have a case today" he said hoping that would somehow help her.
Bella just stayed quiet and finished her breakfast.

.

At school Bella had a really hard time trying not to think that the team would be going away somewhere dangerous. She texted Morgan a few times to make sure everyone was alright inside the BAU. He picked her up at 3:30 and she hugged him and said with a small smile "I'm so glad you didn't go anywhere"

"Me too" he said smiling.
They went to the BAU and when Bella walked in her heart sank.
They had cleaned Emily's desk.

"Where are her things?" Bella asked as her eyes filled with tears.

"Everything is in my car" Morgan said. Bella looked at him and just cried. He picked her up and went to Rossi's office since everyone was gathered in the conference room. "I'm sorry but we can let her things stay there" he explained as he put her down on the couch.

"I know" Bella said as tears kept falling. "I just didn't know they would take it out today" she said.

Derek wrapped her in his arms as she calmed down.
"Look" he said letting go of the hug. "I'm getting my own office soon and I'll make a little place for you in there, okay? We can keep some of her things there too if you want" he said and Bella nodded. "Alright" he gave her a little smile. Suddenly Reid walked in.

"Hi" Spencer said. "Hotch is asking for you"

"I'll be right there" Derek said. Reid gave them a small understanding smile and walked back to the conference room.

"Are you okay now?" Derek asked Bella. She nodded yes.
"Do you have any homework?"

"Yes" she said.

"Alright. So get started on it and I'll be right back." He said and she started taking her school things off her bag.
Derek went to the conference room and everyone was gathered.

"Hey. Is she okay?" Garcia asked. Reid had told them Bella was crying.

"She's alright" Derek said.

"She saw the desk?" Rossi asked.

"Yeah" Morgan said and everybody nodded understanding. "Do we have a case?" He asked a little worried.

"No" Hotch said. "We haven't been invited in yet but we need to work on a profile" he said. So everyone sat around the table and started working.

As the day went on the team worked hard and Bella did the homework and then watched Netflix. Penelope got a call from Hilary and the woman offered to watch Bella whenever they needed. Garcia told Morgan and they sat to talk about what their plan would be, how Isabella's schedule would be.

So after dinner that night they sat to talk to the girl.
"Bella, we talked to Hilary today and she offered to watch you while we work since she works from home in the afternoons." Derek said and Bella just looked a little nervous.

"We were thinking that maybe you can go home with Chloe after school and we'd pick you up after work" Penelope said.
Bella shook her head no as tears filled her eyes.
"You don't want that?" Garcia asked and Bella shook her head no again.

"Why not?" Morgan asked.

"Because I wanna stay with you both. I don't wanna go there every day" Bella said.

"Which days do you have choir?" Morgan asked.

"Monday, Wednesday and Friday" Bella said.

"Chloe goes too, right?" He asked and Bella said yes. "How about if you go home with her on those days and on Tuesday and Thursday you go to the office?" He said.

Bella took some time to think about it and said "okay"

"Yeah? Are you sure?" Garcia asked.

"Uhum" Bella said. "But I can still call you whenever, right?" She asked.

"Of course you can" Garcia said.

"You can call us anytime" Derek said.

"Yeah" Penelope smiled. Bella walked to the other couch and hugged them both.

"I love you" she told them.

"We love you too, pumpkin" Penelope smiled.
"Alright, no more tears" Garcia said wiping her face and then Bella's. "Doctor Who is starting" she said and the three sat together to watch the show.

A while later doctor Sullivan called and told Morgan she was heading there. So some time later she arrived. She changed Bella's bandages in the living room while the girl watched the show.

"Wow this looks amazing" the doctor said as she took the two top bandages off. She started cleaning and Bella flinched.

"Does that hurt?" The doctor asked.

"It's just cold" Bella said.

"That's good" Sullivan said. She cleaned it all up and put a different cream on. She took the bottom one off and cleaned it. As always Bella cried a little on that one. It was still pretty red and sensitive but it was healing okay.

"No bandages on this part now. Just put this cream after she showers. Don't rub anything in there. Just let the water run and then dry it gently with a towel" the doctor said as Bella sat up and wiped her face.

"Did you hear that?" Garcia said smiling. "There's a part that's almost all better"

"Is it going to hurt when I shower?" Bella asked a bit scared as the doctor helped her put her shirt back on.

"Not at all" the doctor said with a smile. Bella turned to Derek and opened her arms asking for a hug. He hugged her and she cried a little.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah." She said.

"You're relieved it's almost over?" Derek asked.

She nodded yes and cried a bit.

"Yeah. It's gonna be all better soon" Morgan said wiping her face.

"It feels weird now" Bella said as she felt her back touch the shirt.

"Better or worse than with the bandage?" The doctor asked smiling.

"Better" Bella said with a little smile.

"Good" doctor Sullivan said with a smile. Everyone was smiling glad the kid was getting better from that. "Alright. So I'll see you in two days?"

Bella nodded and Garcia walked with Sarah to the door.

Penelope went back and sat with them.
"So Derek... Why don't we talk about the room thing?" Garcia said making a face as she was holding her excitement in.

"Oh sure" Derek smiled.

"What room thing?" Bella asked intrigued.

"Well..." Derek said "we want to do a little renovation in the bedroom here. Your new bedroom." He said and she just stared. "What do you think?" He asked.

"Cool" Bella said not really that excited.

"We could paint it and get new furniture. It's all up to you" he said.

"Okay" Bella said and gave them a little smile.

"I promise it will be fun" Garcia said.

"Can I help you paint it?" Bella asked Derek.

"You must" he said and stood up. He grabbed a paint catalog on his go bag and handed to Bella. "Here you go. You can pick whatever color you want" he said, handing the catalog to her.
She looked through it for a while and then said "there are so many options" and looked kind of lost.

"You don't have any idea of what color you'd like?" Derek asked.

"Maybe blue" Bella said.
She went to the blues and they started analyzing and picturing it in the room. After about 30 minutes Bella had chosen a light blue for 3 walls and a darker blue for one wall. They had also decided on getting a desk and a book shelve, new decorations and bedding.

"So we have a plan?" Derek asked.

"Yes" Bella said with a small smile now sounding more excited.

Penelope and Derek smiled happy to see her smile, even though it was small.
"Alright. So bed time cause tomorrow will be a loooong day" Garcia said.
