"Y/N, you know I don't approve of this." Your mother argues. It's been almost two weeks since you've been released from the hospital. You sucked up your pride and allowed your mother to care for you for those two weeks, but you've had enough. You're ready to spend the rest of your leave with Penelope.

"Mom, I know. You've told me about twenty times now." You sass back, while gathering your things from her car. She reluctantly drove you to the airport despite her protests about you leaving.

"Please call more often." She says, getting out of her car to help you. She pulls you into a hug that knocks you out of breath, but you reciprocate her actions. She hugs you like it's the last time she will ever do so, especially now that she is more aware of the type of work you are in now.

"I will, Mom. I promise. I love you." You finally let out after a while. She finally lets you go and pats your shoulder while wiping away her tears. She says I love you back twice, making sure you know.

Your father sits in the front seat, staring ahead. You decide to walk up to his window and knock. He notices your knocking, and opens the door and gets out. He stands awkwardly, and moves his arms around a lot which indicates to you he doesn't know what to do with them.

"Um, bye Dad. I will see you." You say sheepishly.

"Bye, Y/N. I love you, please stay safe." He finally says back.

"I love you too, Dad." You smile wide as you wrap your arms around him. He is stiff at first, but soon falls into the hug. He squeezes you tight and then lets go of you.

You grab your suitcase tightly and begin to walk away. You stop for a second and turn around, and look at your parents. Your heart soars at the thought that you three are finally the family you were supposed to be and what you always dreamed of. Waving, you finally turn back around and walk into the airport.

"Penelope, thank you so much for picking me up." You smile as you jump into her orange convertible. As much as you missed your family, you missed your team a little bit more.

"How was the flight?" She asks, starting the car up after setting your things in the backseat. You explain to her how your flight went and told her about the last two weeks with your parents. Unfortunately, you didn't see Spencer at all in those two weeks and you missed him a lot more than you cared to admit. You weren't sure if he left Las Vegas yet or if he was still visiting his mom.

"Alright I have a question for you Y/N." Penelope speaks up after a beat of silence.

"Hit me." You say back.

"Okay, you can totally say no if you want," She begins to say, "But are you okay if the team visits you today? They want to see you."

"Of course it's okay, I missed you guys." You beam, happy that your team is so eager to see you.

The rest of the car ride went exceedingly well, the laughter shared with Penelope is always a grand time in your eyes. You are so glad that things worked out the way it did; you felt as though you'd be miserable if you were still stuck with Sam and Tom.
