Miss Marion took Bella to the principal's office and explained to the man the girl was going home early. Of course he was very understanding. So Marion sat with Bella outside the school so the girl could get some fresh air.
After a little while Penelope and JJ arrived.

"Oh baby" Garcia said running to the girl. She hugged Bella who just stayed quiet as tears kept streaming down her face.

"Garcia, take her to the car" JJ said and Penelope went with Bella.

"What exactly happened?" JJ asked the French teacher.

"She was sobbing in the bathroom and she kept saying she wanted to go home" Marion said.
JJ made an understanding face.

"Thank you for calling us" JJ said.

"It's alright" Marion said.

.

JJ drove to the BAU while Garcia sat on the back with Bella. The girl stayed quiet all the way.

"I wanna go home" she whispered to Penelope as JJ parked the car.

"We can't go home right now bunny. We're working" Garcia explained feeling bad.
Isabella just hugged her and tried hard to keep her tears in.

"It's okay honey you'll stay with us. It's gonna be alright" Penelope said. She let go of the hug and wiped Isabella's face. "Let's go" she said and they got out of the car. Bella held her hand tight.

"Do you want to stay with me in my office?" Penelope asked completely forgetting about what happened there.
Isabella looked scared immediately and said no as tears filled her eyes again.

"She'll stay at the conference room with me. Come on" JJ said grabbing the girl's hand. Bella followed her to the conference room and everyone but Hotch was there.

"Hello" Rossi said.

"Hi" Bella said embarrassed.

"Come sit with me. I might need some help with this. Could you try to help me?" Rossi asked showing her some papers.
Bella shyly walked to him.
"All you have to do is put it in order. Can you try that?" He asked.

"Sure" she said very low and took a seat next to him.

Derek gave him a thankful smile.
The girl sat there and helped Rossi organize some files. Later Bella played chess with Rossi in his office. Around 2, Rossi noticed the girl was getting tired.

"Do you want to take a nap? That couch is not that bad" he told her. Bella shook her head no and she looked very serious.
"Hey. No one is going to come here." Rossi said and she just looked down at the floor. "That's what you're scared of, isn't it?"
She nodded and tears filled her eyes.

"Come here with me. Let me tell you something" he said grabbing her hand and guided her to the couch. They sat beside each other.
"What happened at Penelope's office was horrible. And I understand why you are scared, Bella. I do, I really do. But we are here and we are not letting anything bad happened to you" he said.

"But all of you were here last time too" Bella said as a tear fell.

"Do you remember anything from when he got you?" He asked her.

"Yeah" Bella said.

"And what do you remember?" Rossi asked.

"I woke up and my arm was hurting and I tried to move away but I couldn't" Bella said as a few tears escaped. "And then I woke up in there" she added.

"Do you remember who the man in the office was?" Rossi asked.

"Not really" Bella said.

"He had just started working. Doyle had his family and said he would exchange them for you" Rossi explained.

"So he just took me to him?" Bella asked.

"He was young and he was so scared. We didn't know about your mother's old job and we were working so hard to find Doyle that we didn't pay attention to everyone around us." Rossi said. "But that will never happen again"

She looked him in the eyes.

"I am promising you that nobody is going to come here to harm you" Rossi said and Bella hugged him.

"I love you kid" he said.

"I love you too" Bella said.

They stayed silent for a while and then Rossi asked if she wanted to rest on the couch.
Bella nodded yes. He stood up and she laid down.
"I'm going to be right here working. You can sleep if you want" David said sitting on his desk.

Bella woke up an hour later to find Rossi and Derek working in the office.

"Did you sleep well?" Derek asked and Bella nodded.
"Do you want to help?" He asked holding a file. Bella walked and took a seat on the chair next to Derek.

They headed home around 6, and everyone was impressed at how well she had done in there. Rossi had told them what they talked about and everybody was glad she was talking a little bit about what happened.

At home they had dinner, watched some tv and then headed to bed.

"I'm so proud of you for helping us in the office today" Derek told Bella as he tucked her in.
She stayed silent. She didn't really love staying at the office but it ended up not being as bad as she thought it would be.

Derek tucked her in and then headed to his bed.

.

The next day, Wednesday, Bella went to school and she was feeling a bit better. She managed to stay the entire time and tried talking to her friends a bit more. After school Derek picked her up and they went to the office. She asked to stay at Rossi's office again, so she sat on the couch and did her homework, and then she spent the rest of the afternoon watching shows and reading on her ipad.

Around 6, Derek went to talk to her.
"We have a stop before going home tonight" Morgan said and her eyes immediately filled with years.
She had forgotten about the shrink.

"We have a deal, remember?" He said and she nodded and wiped a tear that escaped. "You're gonna be alright but we have to go right now" he said.
Bella got all of her things and Derek and Penelope left with her. Everyone could see, as they left, that the child looked extremely nervous. When they got to the practice Bella started to feel really scared to go in and the tears just started falling.

"Please I don't want to" Bella said crying.

"We have a deal. Come on" Derek said taking her hand. She followed him inside and sat on his lap.

"Isabella Marshall" doctor Joanna Huff called.

"Your turn." Derek said making her get up. He took her hand and walked with her. She walked inside the office and as he was about to walk in the doctor remembered him that day only Bella should go in. So he let go of the girl's hand. Bella tried to get out but the woman closed the door. The girl just kept crying.

"It's okay. He's right outside" Joanna said. "Come on let's go sit" she said and walked to her regular spot on the couch while Bella just stood there.
"Come on. Sit here with me" the woman said. "Your uncle is not going anywhere" she said and Bella sat on the couch. "Every patient I have gets to pick a toy from the bin. Why don't you go and chose one?" The woman said looking at a big bin in the corner of the room, and Bella just ignored and kept crying. The girl didn't say a word.

The psychologist tried drawing, asking questions, dolls, and nothing worked. Bella just cried the entire time.
Once the hour ended the doctor had no choice but to let the girl go.
"You're done" Joanna said and Bella quickly walked to the door.
The doctor opened it and Bella ran to Derek.

"I'll see you next week" Huff told them.

Derek took Bella to the car and then asked how it went. The girl stayed quiet.
"Did you say anything?" Derek asked just knowing.

"No" Bella said.

"Not even one word?" Penelope asked.

"No" Bella said.
Derek and Penelope just looked at each other.

They headed home around 7:40 and Doctor Sullivan stopped by to change the child's bandages. Bella cried as always but it seemed like every time it was getting better and easier for her. Once the woman had finished, Penelope stayed in the bedroom with Bella and the girl fell asleep. Penelope ordered pizza and sat to have dinner with Morgan.
Bella slept till the next morning.

The next two days didn't go so great.
Bella went to school and she seemed fine with it but at home and at the office she was still really down and quiet. She wasn't really talking to anybody and that was really worrying everyone.
Saturday night, Morgan wanted to go out to dinner but once again Isabella refused to leave the house. It got to the point she started crying and kept saying she wasn't going, she ran to the bedroom and slammed the door shut.
Derek and Penelope didn't know what to do.
So Morgan called JJ.

.

"What happened?" JJ asked walking inside with her secret weapon next to her, Henry.

"She won't leave the house" Penelope said.

"Have you sat and talked to her?" JJ asked.

"We've tried everything in the last few days. Ice cream shops, book store, library. She just won't go anywhere" Derek said.

JJ walked inside the bedroom and Bella was laying down covering her face.
"Hi" JJ said sitting next to the girl on the bed. Bella stayed the way she was. "I heard you don't want to go out." JJ said. "Well, maybe Henry could go too" she said but nothing. "Why don't we go have dinner together? It will be fun." JJ said. "He misses you so much" she added and Bella looked up.

"Why don't we go?" JJ asked tucking some hair behind the girl's ear. Bella shook her head no.

"Why not?" JJ asked.

"Because I can't" Bella whispered.

"Why can't you?" JJ asked.

"Because I don't want to go" Bella said and just started crying.
JJ pulled her up and wrapped the girl in a hug.

"Baby, your mom wouldn't want you to stay home and be crying and miserable all the time." JJ said and Bella just kept crying. "She wouldn't want you to stop living Bella. Everything she ever did was to make sure that you would stay alive. Make sure you can go and do things. I know you're sad and you're scared but you need to leave this house. No matter how scared and hurt you are, there's a big world out there that I know your mommy wants you to see." JJ said.

"But I'm scared all the time... I can't do it." Bella cried.

"Yes you can. I know you can. You're already going to school and hanging out at the office with us. You can do this too" JJ said.

"But i don't feel good and I'm scared in there too. I don't even know how I'm doing all of that, Jennifer" Bella cried.

"You're doing that because you're strong. You're so tough Bella. You're tough like your mom. You show it to us every day. And I know, and Penelope and Derek they know too, you can do it." JJ said.

"You can do it" JJ repeated. She just hugged Bella for a while and the girl calmed a bit down.

"Can we try tonight?" JJ asked. "Henry is gonna be there" she added.

Bella took some time to think and then said "Okay"

JJ let go of the hug. "Let's go change your clothes then" she said.
Bella got up and looked really embarrassed but she changed her clothes and they walked to the car.

"We are right here with you" Morgan said grabbing her hand.
Bella got on the backseat and Henry was really excited to see her. She tried concentrating on the little boy instead of the street and the people outside. Derek parked the car and they went out. Bella grabbed his hand as soon as she stepped out of the car. He gave her hand a squeeze letting her know he was right there and she was safe. They walked inside and Bella sat between Derek and Henry. They ordered and Bella drew with the boy while they waited. Everyone could see she was really tensed but they were so happy she was trying.
The food arrived, they ate and talked and Bella felt like it was a normal dinner. But looking around the table someone was missing. Emily.
She wanted her mom so bad. She missed her so much. Her eyes filled with tears but she tried her best and pushed it all away.

When they got back home that night Bella just broke down again. Everything she held in that restaurant just came pouring down.

Derek picked her up.
"It's okay" he told her. "We are so proud of you"

Bella just sobbed. She couldn't help it. She wanted Emily. She needed Emily. There was nothing else she wanted other than her mother by her side.

"Shuuuuu it's going to be okay" Derek told her.

"No it won't. She's not here" Bella cried. "I just want her here" she sobbed.

"I know, princess. I know" Derek said feeling bad.

Penelope hugged both of them as all three of them cried.
