This is probably my favorite Nickelback song so I had to do a story to it. Enjoy!
Far Away-Nickelback
Aaron Hotchner knew he screwed up. He hurt Emily and he didn't even mean it. He broke up with her and he felt like the biggest asshole that ever roamed the Earth. He loved her with all of his heart but he figured she was better off without him. He didn't want to lose her like he had lost Haley. He wouldn't be able to handle it. Emily was his world and being without her made him die a little more each passing day. He heard a song on the radio on the way to work and he knew what he had to do. He sprinted into his office and looked up the information for the song. When he saw Morgan and Reid come in he quickly called them both into his office.
"Morning guys. I need your help. As you all know I ended things with Emily."
Morgan rolled his eyes at his boss. "Yeah Hotch, we know. You broke her heart you know, and you did it for no reason. We all know you still love her but you're too scared to take that leap."
Reid nodded his agreement.
"I completely agree with you two, and I realized what a huge mistake I've made. I want her…no I need her in my life. So I came up with a plan to get her back, but I'm going to need your help. Are you guys' game?" The two profilers looked at each other.
"Yes," Reid said.
"What are you thinking?"
Hotch told them his plan and they both smiled.
"If she doesn't take you back after that she's nuts," Morgan replied.
They spent the entire day in Hotch's office preparing for the event. They had things delivered to Hotch's office and they practiced. At 7 pm they noticed Emily packing her things up. It was now or never. Morgan opened Hotch's office door and he started to play the guitar. Emily turned around when she heard music then smiled when she saw who it was. Then Hotch walked out of his office followed by Reid and Hotch began to sing.
This time, this place
Misused, mistakes,
Too long, too late,
Who was I to make you wait?
Just one chance, just one breath
Just encase there's just one left
Cause you know, you know, you know
I love you, I've loved you all along
And I miss you, for far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
Emily smiled as she listened to the words. Hotch was willing to make a fool out of himself to get her back. Not many are that brave, and not many cared that much. He continued to sing with Reid as backup and Hotch kept moving closer to her.
On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of it to hold your hand
I'd give it all I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
Cause you know, you know, you know
I love you, I've loved you all along
And I miss you, for far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
So far away, far away, so far away for far to long,
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted, I wanted you to stay,
Cause I needed, I need to hear you say…
I love you, I've loved you all along
And I forgive you, for being away for far too long
So keep breathing cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Hold onto me and never let me go
Keep breathing cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Hold onto me and never let me go
When he got to the second verse, he held his hand out and she placed her smaller one in his and he pulled her close and started to dance with her. They swayed to the music until they were finished and she stepped away from him slowly.
"Emily, I'm a jackass. I realize that, and I'm so very sorry for all the pain I've caused you. I don't know if you can ever forgive me, but I hope you can because I care about you so much. I want you beside me again. I can't function without you there. Baby, I'm so sorry."
Emily slapped his arm. "If you do that to me again, I'll kick your ass Aaron, but that was the sweetest thing any one has ever done for me. How can I not forgive you? I love you…I never stopped." Emily jumped into his arms and their lips became one which caused Morgan and Reid to applaud at the scene. At least they acted like idiots for a good cause.
