Chapter One

"Five little bunny rabbits sitting in a row, three are gone and one more has to go."

Gemma mustered up what strength she had left and turned her head to look over at her boyfriend Mike. Out of the five employees working at Papa's Records, the local video and music store, she and Mike were the only two still alive. Her creep radar had gone off the charts as soon as he had walked into the store over 30 minutes ago but her boss, who was tied to the chair next to her and dead, always told them to accept any and all customers.

"Which little rabbit wants to die first?" Gemma let out a muffled squeak when the cold blade of the axe slid under her chin. "I think it's you." Before Gemma Wayne met her grisly fate she heard Mike's chair scraping against the concrete floor of the storage room and a barely coherent "fuck you" then the sound of metal meeting skull. "Five little bunny rabbits hopped through the field, now their gone and their fate is sealed."


Aaron Hotchner's life was constantly wrapped up in politics and he decided that if he ever ran for office his first order of business would be to pass a law banning Emily Prentiss from ever wearing a short elegant black cocktail dress again. This was because it was painfully clear that every single man in the room was staring at her and trying their best not to drool and struggling to keep their hormones in check.

Hotch appreciatively took in the way the black satin hugged her slender frame and molded to her perfect curves. Her already long legs looked impossibly longer and he held his breath as the thin fabric rode up her creamy smooth thighs a fraction of an inch. Her shoulder length dark brown hair fell in waves around her beautiful face and her smile and laugh lit up the room as she joked around with Morgan and Garcia. He was unfortunately stuck in a conversation with Strauss and a few others. He had long ago zoned out and was now taking sips of his champagne every few seconds and nodding his head like a mindless zombie. In fact the only thing he was focused on at the moment was Emily Prentiss. He hated office holiday parties and this one wasn't changing his mind in any way. JJ slipped into the small group cutting off the conversation in her diplomatic way and Hotch felt like hugging her.

"Sorry to interrupt but I need to speak with Agent Hotchner. It looks like we have a new case that needs our immediate attention." The urge to hug her quickly disappeared and Hotch could feel his heart begin to sink.


A/N: Sorry I haven't updated anything in a long time. I was recently in the hospital and of course I had a lot of time to think about my stories and new ideas. This was one of my new ideas. It will be rated M and Hotch and Prentiss are already an established couple in this story except none of the BAU know. Please R&R. Thanks so much! Oh, and like I always say if you don't like the H/P pairing please don't flame, just don't read.
