It was a quiet evening and the team had just arrived from their most recent case. It had been a gruesome one. Four women had been tortured for hours before being murdered. They had gotten to the last woman in time to save her life, but were too late to spare her the suffering she was forced to endure. They had called for paramedics and she had been taken to the hospital. Thankfully, she was able to get there alive and they were able to treat her injuries. It had required some surgery, but the team was happy and proud to know that they had arrived in time.
Garcia greeted the team at the elevator with a smile and hugs, as usual. The team was so grateful that Garcia was always so bubbly and positive; it helped them keep a smile on their faces every day despite seeing the horrors of the world their job has to offer.
"Who's ready to go have some fuuuuuun?" Garcia asked, stretching out the word 'fun'. "Maybe the new club that opened downtown? It's been open for weeks now and we still haven't checked it out!" She complained, pouting.
"I'm in!" Morgan said immediately, needing the social outing to relieve some of the stress and tension that the case had brought to him.
Hotch had also agreed, followed by Rossi and Reid, leaving solely Emily and JJ to answer.
They looked at each other before also agreeing to go out with the team. As bad as they just wanted to go home and cuddle together on the couch with popcorn and a movie, they knew it was important for the team to get together outside of work.
Everyone knew that the two women were a couple; they had known for a few months now and none of them disapproved of their relationship. Even Hotch had been happy for them after warning them that they would have to be strictly professional at work.
They had understood that and so far, they had continued to be model employees. Their romantic relationship didn't affect their job, except for the better. Even though they already trusted each other in the field, they now trusted each other even more than they ever did before dating.
"Alright then, are we all ready?" Morgan asked.
"Actually guys, there's something I need to tell you before we leave." Hotch announced, stoic as usual.
"What is it Hotch? Is everything okay?" JJ was the first to ask, worried it was another case.
"Don't worry, it's good news." Hotch said, although he remained serious.
"What is it, man?" Morgan asked, confused.
Deciding to not keep the team waiting any longer, Hotch decided to tell them.
"We're getting a new transfer."
Garcia gasped, jumping up and down slightly.
"When do we get to meet him? Or her? Is it a him or a her? When do we get to meet him or her? If it's a he, is he hot?" Garcia fired question after question, making them all laugh, except for Morgan who dramatically clutched his chest.
"We don't even know who he or she is yet and you're already replacing me?" He asked, his voice full of feigned hurt.
"Don't worry, my Chocolate God of Thunder. You are irreplaceable. Nobody will ever be as hot as you." Garcia comforted, leaning into his side, hugging him.
Hotch smiled before clearing his throat to get his team's attention.
"His name is Scott Andrews and he transferred from the Criminal Investigative Division. He's very well known for having broken one of the worst cases they had, and he has a great reputation in the FBI. He's a highly respected agent and has a lot of connections. Please try to make him feel as welcomed as you can, alright?"
Everyone nodded, and Garcia once again jumped up and down, happily.
"When do we meet him, sir?" She asked, unable to contain her excitement.
"Monday." He stated.
"Oh, wow, that was fast." JJ commented, surprised.
"Yeah, he tried to expedite his transfer." Hotch explained.
"Do you know why?" Emily asked, this time.
"We don't know." Hotch said.
"Whatever his reasons are, we need to try and make him feel like one of the team." Rossi said.
"Most people change jobs because they become dissatisfied with their working environment." Reid stated, but before he could continue with a rant that was certain to persist, JJ butted in.
"Maybe he wasn't getting along with his colleagues?" JJ half-asked.
"Yeah, maybe." Morgan said as they all fell silent, thinking of reasons as to why the new agent had left his old job so quickly.
"Guuuuys!" Garcia stretched out, pouting. "Can we finally go now?" She complained.
They all laughed, before grabbing their stuff so they could head out, all of them leaving with the curiosity of who this new agent might be. They couldn't wait to meet him.
