As she walked in to the office she wondered how thing would be it was not like they have talked at all she had tried to call his cell but he had turned it off, witch was all most unhered of in the BAU. she looked up there to his offices he was sitting at his desk and JJ was talking to him.

"Hay Prentiss" morgan greated her

"Hay" she replyed but she knew sounded distracted she sat at her desk and tried to look like she was working but was in fact doing very little.

JJ was still in hotch's office an hour later. Her nerves were begining to show. when JJ exited his office she singal for them to go in to the brefing room.

He wouldn't even look her in the eye she felt like whwn she frist entered the team. as they left room she hang back

" Hotch" email called after him he turned and closed the door

"we need to talk " she advised him.

"Agent Prentiss" he said formalley his posture was stiff.

"About last night.." before she could finsh her sentance he cut in.

"I'm am so sorry i was way out of line and if you wish to file a sexual harssament agaisted me i won't fight it"

" NO I am not filing I just don't want things to become orward between us"

" But i was out of line i came to your house And and ..." he seamed unable to find the right words

"Hotch i was there i was and i didn't want you to stop." she looked in to his eyes so he knew she ment it"

"prentiss this can not happen again I'm your boss" he finsh as not only to convice her but him self

"i know that and i would never intetaly put you in that position"

"ok so..." he said as if for the frist time in his life he did not know what to do.

"well.." she replyed

" we have a plane to catch " he said he turned an opened the door and left.

ON THE PLANE

He waited for her to sit and picked a seat as far from her not that he wanted to that far from her he just did know if he could keep his hands of him self he could still feel and taste her lips. He could still feel her body under his and her hands on his chest

" OH GOD" he whispered out as he could feel his body responding to the memory that was when David Rossi leaned over

"you OK Hotch" he questioned.

"Yes just a lot to think about" I replayed

"If you need to talk I'm here " he said as he sat back in his seat.

Shortly after we began the preliminary profile even when i wasn't looking at her i could feel her eyes on me. just her mer presents was distressing to me i was finding it hard to concentrate

" I hope it is as hard for her as is for me." as that thought crossed is mind she got up and passed be hide me " I couldn't breath

"GOD I WANT HER" my mind screamed

"Excuse me" she whispered as she passed

A few moments later she she returned i put my hand be hide my back and as she passes i feel her lean stomach

" So we have a white male between 30 to 50 in a low paying job whose type is brunettes who stay at home mums who's a sadist that makes the child watch as e kills the mother" I surmise out load. at that we returned to our seats. She got up and walked over and sat next to me

"Hotch are you ok" she asked

"Hotch if we keep this up some one is going on"

" can we talk after we land pls"I ask

"Ok" she replies but dose not get up. this trip is going to take all my self control to not take her in my ams and kiss her like i did last night before we land.

Chapter 4

The morning after the night before.

Emily POV

"so warm" was the first thought to cross her mind the where am i and who am i with In her half sleep she had forgotten last night activities but she could feel a man coulded up to her back with is arm draped over he side. and then it her like a tone of falling bricks the man was _Hotch _ Arron she corrected her self she had come over and thrown her self at him and they had had a mind blowing night together But she know Hotch he was an honourable man he would feel bad as he started this the other night with here and she was a suborned and he was her boss. Even if she need him just to keep her head straight and it was so good and she could barely think of anything else since the other night. She rolled over and looked a him still asleep with His arm lightly draped over her still he looked so different here so quite so at easy But she knew he would not be when he woke up

" Better Go" he mind advised her interrupting her train of thought she carefully slip out of the bed and his arms initially feeling cold and regretting it. she when looking for he clothes witch were scared around Hotchs small one bed apartment from just by the door thro the dinning room and lounge to his bed room she followed them back to her jacket by the front door she turned around and headed back to the dinning room table to write a note hopping to let him know she did hate him and had no bad feeling about what happen between them

she picked up a pen and began to write

Dear Arron

I will see you at work i hope this will not make thing orkward between us. I have to go home and change oh and i will put on a pot of coffee for you

Emily

she had no idea how to sign it did she say agent perentiss or love or your bed buddy so she opted for simply Emily. She walked in to the kitchen and started to make the coffee she had promised in the letter she filled the coffee maker and frond his coffee beans ground in the very well organized fridge that held very little else and set the coffee machine going as it began to brow she walked took a look around the apartment and smiled as she left.

Hotche's POV

He rolled over and the bed seamed clod now His first thought was he could smell coffee and That was strange well until the he memory returned "Oh god what have i done" he thought he had slept with Emily not that it was bad it was Great. But He was her boss and that was the bad part about this whole thing and by the way the apartment smelled she had waited and made coffee and her self at home witch was good and bad as one they could sort his out before work bad part was he had to face her and tell here it could never happen again as was the facts with out jumping her bones just to hear he scream his name as she came for him. if she was not his work college he would have been happy that she had been happy enough with him to make her self at home here in his apartment and he might have been tempted to call in sic and spend the day with her. But no he was her boss. He sighted and pulled him self out of bed and found some PJ bottoms and walked out to the living room stealing him self for the sight of her so as not to loss his resolve not to pick up were they left off last night. but as he got the it was empty so to the kitchen still no one so walked to the bathroom she was probably in there

Knock Knock

"umm" he thought about calling here agent prentiss but after he layed with her and came calling here name it seamed wrong to do that to her "Emily Umm you in there" he called no answer so he open the door it to was empty. He he walked back to the dinning room it was then he notices the note on the table he picked it up and read it . he sat down in the chair and the note was short she gone home to change good not strange question for her to answer about that. the next thought that crossed his mind was she wanted to talk so maybe not so mad or upset at him and 3rd was she made him coffee. "why" he asked the empty apartment

He got up and made him self a coffee " this could go bad so very quickly" he advised him self he looked at the clock 6:15 better get ready for a very long day at the office but he still felt like nothing was going to wipe the smile that was plastered on his face

7:15 am BAU offices

Hotch rushes in Rossi looks out off his office they are the only ones in at this hour and hotch was running late he was usely in before him. but not today. Rossi walked into hotches office

"Hey you OK" He asks him from the door.

Hotch looks up at him like a deer court in headlight

"I'll Take that as a no" Rossi steps in and closes the door

"what's going on with you? you have been acting starnge the last couple of days" Hotch just stared at him

" No i have... i mean there nothing ... Hell" hotch stammered over the sentace that made little to no scents at all .

" I have to tell you something and and pls don't interrupt me till I'm finished because i may never say this out loud to anther living soul in this office again" Rossi just nodded know that if he spocke hotch may shut down and not tell him what is bothering him.

" I well a couple of days ago i when to Emily's" NO His mind screamed "Agent prestiss's I don't know why i just did and then we umm i" God this is hard " I kissed her dav i kissed her and i wanted more but" He looked back from the office window he had been looking out of snice he started his story of the last couple of days. "i stopped we stopped I left i tried to put some distance between us and to let it cool down but" Hotch took a death breath "it didn't work she is all i can think about i dream about her dav i wanted her i still want her and i had her last night" he stopped and looked at dave like he had not precessed what he had just said.

"you slept with prentiss last night?" the question hung there in silence

" yes dav i did she called and then she was there and i couldn't" hotch was so all over the place no really stucther to his sentaces dav rossi had not seen him like this in a very long time.

"Ok Arron you need to be clear here you and emily prentiss has sex last night at you place?" Hotch took a deep breath again

"Yes we did Emily and i had sex great sex last night" did i just say that Hotch through " sorry my brain is not here Or my mouth not sure witch one"

" so you and Emily are involved so what the big deal arron"

"I'm her boss for one. i don't know how she feels about it" he finish in a huff

" what do you mean you don't know?" rossi asked not sure what hotch meant

" well we haven't really talked about it see after the first kiss i left and avoided her there i said i avoided here and then last light we really did have time to talk and when i woke up she was gone i think this could be a problem i mean the note she left seamed nice enough but i just don't know dave what do you think?"

" You two haven't talked yet she left you a note well that a start what did it say" rossi asked hotch reach into his pocket and handed a pieces of paper over to rossi

Rossi read it and then spoke he chose his words very carefully " she said talk later and she made coffee i say it sound promising" rossi gave a half smile

"Dav that the point it can not happen again I'm her boss and i don't know how she will take it will she see it as a rejection or as i see it a work based decision"

" Arron so what your her boss we know your not going to give her special treatment because of it so do what you want to do" rossi sat back finally relaxed he thought the way Arron had talked this up it was something serous but it was just his love life.

"dav i don't know that if it came to the couse of sending you or Morgan in to a building with a killer and her i don't know if i let this go feather that i could send her i just don't" Rossi could see Arron real fear and confusion about this.

"OK Arron woo you feel very strongly for her don't you?" Dav asked

"I don't know what i feel apart form fear and need right now" Arron answered honesty

"so what do you think you should do?" rossi asked

"Dav i... think i should think about it before she get in today"

"OK i am just next door if you need to talk again" rossi got up left and closed the door be hide himself leaving Hotch alone with his thoughts.

	6. Chapter 6

Chapter 6 when things fall apart they fall a part so hard

A/N I ALL THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT REVIEWS.

Thanks to Tazlvr2001 for bata this chapter i hope it makes it a better read.

Emily POV

8:30 am B.A.U Bull pit (where the agent desks are)

She sat at her desk trying not to look up at his office, hoping that he would just call her up there or when they did get to be in the same room together, he would not act strange. She also hoped she would not behave strangely around him.

It was at that moment that JJ came in and advised the pit full of BA.U. Agents that they had a case. They all stood up and headed to the briefing room. As she entered the briefing room, Emily decided just to sit in the first chair she came to, not to think too much about it as then she may only make thing worse. She sat between Reid and Rossi at the end of the table near thedoor. Aaron Hotchner entered and walked around the table in the opposite direction to Emily. Unfortunately, the only seat left was the one directly opposite Emily and between Morgan and JJ and further around the table between Reid and Morgan was Garcia. JJ stood and began to brief the team as she handed out packets of information and about this latest serial killer - an Unsub that killed pageant dark haired women. Six victims so far. Now they were off to the plane to get the Unsub

Hotch POV

He had been trying to stay away from Emily since the briefing. On the plane, he sat away from all of the team and went out of his way to assign her to a group he would not be working with and very really spoke to her. That night at the hotel, Hotch could not sleep and every time he got close to her he longed to feel her they way he had that night. He hoped if he gave himself time, the feelings would pass.

Dave Rossi entered the room and closed the door, "So when are you going to fix this thing with you and Emily?" he asked. It had been two days since they had had the conversation in Aaron's office.

"I'm just going to let it calm down and it will be fine."

"I think you need to talk to her and work out how both of you feel," Rossi advised that was all that had been said in 48 hours.

Emily POV

Emily was very unsure of where to go to from here. Hotch was avoiding her like she had the plague or something. 2 days it has been and there was no conversation, no working in the same group. She was beginning to think he had had a bad night with her but she knew he had enjoyed it just as she had. She decided that it was time to confront him about his behavior and she would do it tonight.

Case or no case.

She went back to profiling the killer of the week, a sadists that like dark haired pageant women.

That night Emily went to Hotch's hotel room. She knocked on the door and waited for Hotch to answer. The door opened slowly and as he turned to look at her, his eyes lit up but then he quickly turned away and motioned for her to enter. "Come in." Aaron walked over to the small dining table not looking back at her.

Emily entered and closed the door behind herself. As she went to speak Hotch said quickly,

"Please don't ask me. I don't know," his shoulder slumped.

She walked over to him and put her hand on his shoulder and leaned down,

"Aaron, just tell me..."

He looked up as her hand landed on his shoulder and before she could finish speaking he captured her mouth in a flaming kiss that she returned. He leant back on the small chair. Emily did not want it to end so she decided to straddle him in the chair and as she did so, he moaned through the kiss. She could feel his body responding to her, but then as suddenly as it began he stopped and pushed her back.

Emily almost fell off his lap, "Stop," he said in his I'm the boss voice.

"Why?" Emily asked as she stood up.

"Emily, I'm your boss we can't do this," he waved his hand between them. "I want to but I can't." He said responding to the look on her face.

"Aaron, I understand why you can't do this thing, but why the silent treatment at work you know the others are getting suspicious of us because of the way you're acting."

He looked at her, the need still in his eyes as her voice grow lauder as she spoke about the way he was treating her.

"I'm sorry. I just thought it would be better if I gave us some room to…you know…umm deal with what happened," Hotch stumbled over his words.

"Aaron I have no problem with what happened. I enjoyed it and I'm sure you did to." She was looking at him as the anger grew.

"I did. I really did enjoy it. We just can't. I'm your boss Emily. I'm not the kind of man that just has sex with women he works with." he had such a sad tone in his voice as he stood and paced around the table.

"We don't have to be a couple Aaron," she yelled at him. "I just wanted things back the way they were," Emily said the last part as a whisper. "Please meet me half way."

He stopped passing and looked at her. "I don't think I can," he whispered back.

Emily looked at him, "So, what are we going to do?" she asked.

"I don't know. I need time to think. I just need to be away from you," Hotch said to her.

"Fine then, I'm gone," she turned and almost ran out the door slamming it behind her as she went.

As she ran out through the hall, she banged into Rossi and Reid, unable to hide the tears falling down her face as they fell to the floor.

"Emily?" Reid asked after her. "You ok?" as he helped her up and Rossi looked on and dusted himself off. "Emily you're crying," Reid said.

"Really? I hadn't noticed," she replied sarcastically.

"Emily, are you ok?" Rossi asked, speaking for the first time.

"Why wouldn't I be?" Emily asked them.

"Well, you're crying, so I say you're not," Reid stated what they all knew

"Just ask your boss, will you? And while you are at it, give him these" she said as she grabbed her badge and pulled her gun out and held them to Reid.

"Emily, why don't you take some time to think about this" Rossi said.

"I can't go back, so I have to go." she grabbed Reid's hand and slapped the gun into his hand as the tears started to fall faster, "Tell him it will be in writing on his desk when he gets back." Then she turned and ran away from them.

IN the hotel room

He watched Emily run out and wanted to follow her, but he knew that if he did, he would just tell her he loved her and make out with her all over the hallway, and that could not happen. They had to get passed this and this was the best way. Let her calm down and sleep on it. She would be fine. He then noticed a tear running down his face as he heard a soft knock at the door.

He stood and wiped the tear from his eyes. "Emily, go get some sleep we'll talk tomorrow, ok?" he yelled through the door.

"It's me and Reid," yelled Rossi.

"Oh…umm," ** was the first thing he thought as he opened the door. "How can I help you two?" Aaron asked.

"We ran into Prentiss in the hall. She was very upset," Reid said. "She asked us to give this to you." He pulled out the gun and badge.

"What?!" Hotch said as he saw them. "She didn't," he shook his head.

"Reid I can take it from here," said Rossi. Reid knew there was more to this than he knew, but did as requested by Rossi and left. "What happened, Aaron?" Rossi asked.

"I don't know. She came here and I told her we could not... you know... be together and then we argued and she left. Dave, what have I done?" Hotch asked him.

"Well go after her before she leaves," Rossi advised.

Nodding, Hotch said, "Dave I will be back," as he ran out the door.

Hotch decided to run down the 2 flights of stairs he rushed out the door to the lobbie and looked around the large open space and the he saw her she had taken a seat in one of the conners in a large red chair as he slowed down and tryed to catch his breath so he would be ablie to talk to her when he got to her. As he got closer he notest that he was clutching some thing in his hand he looked down and he saw he was still holding emily's FBI ID.

"go away" Emily said as he approached her

"Emily pls this is not the answer" he said as he held out her ID to her as he took a seat across from her in a very uncomfortable red chair too.

"why not we can't keep working to gether like this you wont talk to me"

" i know i'm sorry it just i never done this before you know the being with some one i work with"

"and like i sleep with my boss every other week."

"I'm not saying that it just Hard"

"I know that way i wasn't going to push you hotch i just wanted to talk about it so we could at least work together but you wont even do that" emily advised him in a very stun voice

"I'm sorry i reacted like an idiot i guess i'm just i have trouble thinking straight when i'm alone with you and i say thing and i mess thing up" Hotch said really fast so fast that emily almost missed parts of it

"hotch i know it hard it hard for me to but we have to make Oh hell i don't know just forget it happen or ignore it"

"Ok so we just um forget it for now untill um we can talk back in DC" He said holding out her ID again. "the rest is in my room with Dav" Hotch finished

"then we better get back before he catches on then" Emily stood

" It fine dav knows" emily stopped walking and turned

" He what?" emily almost yelled.

"i told him i need his advice and he kinda guess" hot answered

"ok well let try not to tell the whole team shell we"

Hotches room

Rossi POV

David rossi sat in the hotches room waiting wondering how long it would take aaron to A) find prentiss B) convince her that quitting was not answer and C) may find out that he really loved her. Dav knew this as he had the look of it ever since he and haley had broken up and hotch was free to look and he ment really look even with all the not talking and and avoiding aaron always seamed to be glancing at her and smiling to him self.

But the big question was how long would it take the two of them to work it out and not let the rules stand in there way.

He know that the night event would raise question as raid had been there when emily had Quit and reaid would more that likely tell the others and he may have seen hotch run out the door to her room so Now hotch and emily and 1 more problem to try and work out on top of the Big one 'them'.

It was as that thought crossed his mind the door open in to the room and in cam hootch followed by Emily

"Hay" she gave a half smile to him to Dav. " sorry about before" she said as she sat in a chair by the desk.

Hotch walked over handed her the stuff he left with rossi and reaid

He could see that the two of them were a little more at easy with each other but still uneasy around one anther

"so not quitting then?" rossi asked

"Not at the moment" Emily answered almost a whispered to rossi.

"emily it s its" Hotch seamed lost again for words and out of place.

"Hotch pls. don't do this again" emily put her head down.

"i sorry i just have hard time with this" rossi knew this was his Que. to leave and get a head of the roomers that were sure to be starting by now.

"well i ganna let you to talk this out" Rossi left before eater could speak.

"emily i don't know what to say or do about us about this i just don't want it to distort the team or you" Hotch said as he walk over to her

"I just .." it was emily turn to stumble over her wards. her eyes met hootch as he came closer and sat on the end of the bed.

"I…I" hootch stammers Emily leaned forward and kissed him. Hotch kissed back he wraped his arms around her and was starting to pull her on to the bed when emily pull back.

"do you like that aaron?" she asked

"Yes i do emily but what this about?" hootch spoke out to her

" this is about us if you like it why can't you talk to me if you can kiss me then you can talk to me" emily looked him straight in the eyes

" because this is all i think about" hotch kissed her so hard and she kissed back he started leaning back on the bed "mmm aaron" she mooned as he started to move his hand up her back.

"Oh god emily" Hotch keep his hand on her " I just want you so much i don't want to hurt you career i know i'm am never leaving the BAU they made it clear but you have a chance to go on to bigger and better things" he said all this in-between kissed on her neck.

"it strange how you can talk while doing that and not at work" Emily was just starting to enjoy this when he tried to explain what was his reason be hide his behaviour while doing what had gotten them in to this.

Meanwhile in the hallway

Rossi exit into the hall hpping they could work this out and ran in to morgan

" ha rossi what up with hotch i aw him before and not a good look man"

Before he could answer reid and JJ walked up rossi knew he was ganna have to think fast.

" did you tel hootch about emily quieting?" reid asked rossi

" what prentiss is quitting" JJ asked and rossi could see morgan was putting some pieces to gather.

" NO hootch talked to her and it fine she was just having a bad day"

"it been like that for a while now her and hotch seam to be having a lot of bad days" reid made his observation out load.

"Now guys are we profiling a team member?" rossi hoped that would put an end to this for now.

"your right we should just get some sleep" Morgan said.

How will this affect there already strand relationship now he was just more worried about this developing sexual relationship. He walked to the door and he looked at her sleeping in his bed she looked very peaceful there almost as if she belong there. All he wanted to was lay down and forget the out side world and be with her. But he knew that they would have to face this again soon.

Hotch slowly walk over to the bed hoping to have the conversion that had kinda gotten side Tracked from last night.

"Emily um can you wake up we need to talk" hotch put his hand on her shoulder and gave it a light shake.

"mmm Aaron" she rolled over and put her arm over his legs which despite. His best efforts made him came hard. He groaned her hand crept up to his cock witch was only cover by his boxer which he had thrown on.

"You like that" she asked that question sort of becoming an in joke for them.

"You" he did no finish that as she freed his cock from his boxer and took him in her mouth all thoughts of conversation were gone as round 2 started.

Later in the hallway

"Hi rossi" she said quietly

"what's up Dav" asked hotch asked as he started looking around the floor of the room. Bent down and pick up Emily's jacket of the floor and handed it to her. To rossi it seamed kianda funny that when they didn't think things us sort of flowed for them.

"your late" Rossi said to hotch with a half smile

"What" was emily's replay to rossi "you seen my bra" Emily go down n the floor to look under the bed.

"Got it" Hotch pop up from the coroner of the room with her bra. " Yeh but one knows it wont take long for the other to be told" Hotch advised

Rossi advised " we should get going" he open the door as hotch put his gun in to it holster.

Emily strolled out the lift and walked to wards hotch and rossi who had just finishing calling the team to let them know they were on a few minutes away. Hotch seamed to get tense as she come closer and Emily noticed. " Pls don't start again" she said to him

"Not going to it just I think it going to be hard to act like nothing going on" Hotch said. This was the first full sentence out side the bed room he had said to her since this whole what ever it is started. And to rossi that was a good sign the question was would it last in the precent of the team and the growing assumption.

Hotch was up making breakfast as Emily slept on in the next room Aaron had decided to embrace this new relationship. He was making bacon and egg omelettes and coffee nothing over the top just nice he put it on a tray and walked back to bed he would love to let her sleep but they did have to be at works today.

"Emily" he whispered to her and she role over "morning" she noticed he was holding a try "oh I could get used to this" she sat up. " so how about dinner tonight?" Hotch asked as he sat on the bed and smiled hand her the try and picking up his plate. "So we are making this official you and me on a date?" Emily was looking at him. "yes I would like to if you really don't care about Strauss? I mean lets not shout it from the roof tops but we should tell the team" Hotch started eating his eggs Emily looked over and kissed Hotch on the cheek and they ate.

She knew the first night had been impulsive and recluse but it had also fantastic but now she was looking at the consequences of that night she knew it was that night. She had not been on the pill and Hotch had not used anything that night either. Now she was looking at the small white stick that told her that that fantastic night had done.

Emily had been looking at the test for half an hour now still not sure what to do about it. Hotch and her relationship was so new she did not want to distroy it and how would they explain it to well every one. What would Hotch do or think she did not want him to stay with her for a baby or would he. wait it not even a baby yet. she throw the test in to her bag as Hotch called that they should get going

The BAU.

They were late it was now just after 9 am Hotch held the door open for Emily and he walked in. " Could we gather in the conference room" Hotch said as the group got up and walked in JJ walked over " what happening Hotch?"

"it's not a case" was all the Hotch said.

In the conference room.

Even Penelope Garciahad been called in the group sat as Hotch began "Now as you have seen there is something happen between Prentiss, Rossi and myself that you have not been made aware of and you will not be this is a matter that the three of us will be handing, we will keep the interference with cases and this office to a minimum" he finished and look around the group Rossi was just sitting looking around too but Emily was looking at the table.

"So we just ignore the strange thing and the quite conversation and the upset face do we?" Morgan asked, Hotch knew he would be the one to make this hard.

"for now yes that what I'm saying you will be bought in when and if it need" Hotch answered quickly

"But why we could help?" Garcia asked

" Not at this time Garcia we have all we need" Hotch said in a voice that said this matter was closed.

"Rossi and Prentiss with me" and he left with that.

The three left and the group left in the briefing room stared at each other Morgan spoke first " well that was cryptic".

"I don't get it, if it a case then we should be helping" Garcia commented

"I don't think its a case" Reid said "I think Morgan was on to something the other day" Reid continued

"Ok so what did I miss?" Garcia asked

"Just that Morgan thinks Hotch and Emily are together" JJ told her

"What NO!" Garcia looked at Morgan shocked "When did this happen? I mean are they?" Garcia sat forward on her chair

"It not true" JJ quickly answered

"Baby doll I sure there is something going on, she was going to quit and they were not talking and now everything is fine, I say there together or where and Reid agrees"

"I thought we did not profile the team" JJ interjected

"I'm not a blond man could reigns the signs the don't talk then she leaving now there normal there something and is personal or Hotch would have told us all and not just rossi" Morgan finished.

"I'm forced to agree with sweet cheeks" Gracia said and Reid just nodded. "So now we need to see how long it takes them to tell us" Garcia said as she got up to leave.

Hotch's Office

The three people entered the office. "so how long do you think that just bought us" Hotch asked them.

"That really depends on if they bought that show in there" Dave answered Hotch's question Emily stay strangely quite like she had been all morning. Hotch seemed to have notched " Hay you ok Em" he asked her as he walk to the chair where she had taken a seat.

"Yeah just don't like lying to them about this is all" she answer no really meeting his eyes.

"It's just till we work all this out ourselves then we will tell them ok?" Hotch leaned forward and tried to kiss her but she pulled back

"I have to get some work done" Emily quickly got up and pushed passed Hotch and left the office, Rossi closed the door behide her.

"What was that? You don't think she having second thoughts do you?" Hotch asked Rossi as he walk around his desk and sat down.
