Hotch walked into his daughter's hospital room and smiled when he saw that she was ready to go. "Are you ready to get out of here sweet pea?"

Kia looked up and grinned at her father. "I'm more than ready to get out of here Dad. What took you so long?"

Hotch chuckled and said "Well I had to talk to your Doctor and fill out the paperwork and sign it so that I could break you out of here. Now you have to be in the wheel chair for eight weeks and we have to make sure that your casts don't get wet. Your Mom and I have to keep an eye on your breathing since they had to re-inflate your lung. The Doctor gave me a whole list of instructions and thankfully he had them all wrote out because with as many as he told me I know that I would end up forgetting some of them and then your Mom would have to hurt me and we wouldn't want that."

Kia laughed and then pressed a hand to her stomach and groaned. "Okay so laughing is off of the table. It hurts my chest and my side when I laugh."

Hotch nodded and walked over to his daughter. "It hurts your side because of your broke ribs sweet pea but it will get better. I know from experience that if you press something up against your side and stomach that it tends to help relieve the pain and pressure some. Now lets get you out of here because Jack is all excited about you coming home."

Kia smiled at the mention of her brother. "I bet he's not more excited than I am. If I had to stay one more day in here I was going to ask Uncle Dave to break me out. The food in this hospital sucks and some of the Nurse's were just ditsy."

Hotch rose an eyebrow at Kia. "What do you mean ditsy?"

Kylan pressed the bear to her stomach as she couldn't help but laugh. "I mean exactly that Dad. They would only come in when you or Uncle Dave or Uncle Derek or even Uncle Spencer was in here. They would rather check you all out than look at me or ask me to see if I needed anything."

At that a thunderous expression came over Hotch's face and he said "Well then sweet pea it is a good thing I am breaking you out of here. Why didn't you tell your Mom or I about those Nurse's before now? We would have done something about it."

Kia sighed and looked at her Dad and then away. "I didn't want to tell you or Mom because I didn't want to be a bother. Speaking of Mom where is she? I thought she would have came with you."

Hotch chuckled and said "Changing the subject sweet pea? I'll let you change the subject in a minute after I get something through that thick head of yours. I swear you have both your Mom's and mine stubborness in you. You could never be a bother Kia Marie Prentiss Hotchner. You are our daughter and we love you. Anytime something is bugging you we want you to come to us no matter how small or how big it is. Now as to where your Mom is she stayed at home with Jack because she figured that you and I both needed some Father Daughter time and I liked the idea. Is that okay with you?"

Kia looked at her Dad in shock and she whispered "You just called me Kia Marie Prentiss Hotcner."

Hotch nodded and said "Well that is your name is it not? Or rather that will be your name once we can add the Hotchner to it. Listen sweet pea you are my daughter and I may have just found out about you not even a week ago but I love you and I will always love you. I would like it if you would take my last name."

Kia had tears in her eyes and she threw her arms around her Dad who was still kneeling in front of her wheel chair. "I would love to have you last name Daddy. Thank you so much and I love you too."

Hotch kissed Kia on the head and hugged her back gently. "You have no reason to thank me Kia. I am your Dad and I would do anything for you. I am just so sorry that it took this many years for me to find out about you."

This time Kia shook her head. "It's alright Daddy. It's not your fault. All that matters now is that you know about me and that you love me now. Lets go home Daddy."

Hotch nodded his head and kissed Kia's head one more time before standing up. "Yes sweet pea lets go home before your Mom thinks we got lost."

Kia smiled at her Dad as he walked around her wheel chair. She couldn't believe how close she had become to her Father in the short time that she has known him. She couldn't believe how much she loved him such a short time. She had no doubt that he would make sure that she stayed safe and that nothing else bad happened to her.

As Hotch pushed Kia out of her hospital room and to the elevator he couldn't help but smile. He loved his daughter so much and he knew that he would do everything and anything to keep her safe. He couldn't believe how much his life has changed for the better in under a weeks time. As he thought about the events that have occurred in the last week even with all the bad stuff he couldn't help but smile because he finally had the woman he has always loved and he finally has the family he has always wanted.
