Chapter One

Hotch was training for the FBI triathlon. He stopped for a few minutes to rest.

"Geez I hope your training for something. Hope you didn't do sprints for fun." A woman said.

"No I'm training to this triathlon in February."

"Oh yeah the FBI one you're an agent?"

"Yeah it's the FBI one."

"I'm not supposed to ask if you're an agent."

"I work for the Justice Department."

"I've seen you doing laps at the pool too."

"And you're training for surveillance?"

"Am doing a triathlon it's in January but I'm not in a big rush as you!"

"Well, I just have about 45 minutes a day so between work and home is hard."

"How's your biking going?"

"Oh I don't know my tires are inflated."

"Well you know I'm not the best cyclist. So I was going to ride this weekend. I could use some tips if you're not busy."

"Just don't know my schedule."

"Yeah are we going to see each other out here or at the pool sometime."

"But I should find out in a couple of days and I can call you."

"That'll be great! I have a card somewhere." She said looking in her arm and handing it to Hotch, "It should be fun or at least an adventure."

"So what made you think that I was an agent?" he asked looking at the card, Beth Clemmons.

"I saw the suit what else could you be?" she said walking away.

What was I thinking? Hotch thought. He had no idea what had happened! The last time he was as nervous as today was when he decided to talk to Haley and that was many moons ago. He had to hurry if he didn't want to be late to work and everybody to question where is Hotch?

~CM-CM~CM-CM~

Beth didn't know where the courage had come to stop and talk to him. She didn't know but what she did was that he was an extraordinary man! She could see that he was honest, with integrity, hard worker and didn't quit.

It was on moments like this that he missed her Daddy.

"Earth calling Beth!" Cynthia said.

"Sorry. I was thinking of my dad. What did you asked me?"

"How did it go with your running?"

"Pretty good I have been getting better in my time."

"Did you see him?"

"Yes he was ahead of me and stopped for a few minutes to rest I think and I thought that was my opportunity to talk."

"So how is he?"

"He seems to be a nice man!"

Beth saw Cynthia rolled her eyes and went back to do what she was doing.

"Did they come for the painting?" their boss asked them.

"I don't think so!" Cynthia said.

At that moment, a man came in asking for a painting and taking it with him.

Few days had gone by and she hadn't received a phone call from him and she was about to doubt herself when her phone rang and she didn't recognize the number but she still answered the phone.

"Hello."

"Beth? This is Aaron Hotchner we've met at the park the other day! My schedule is clear for tomorrow at nine in the morning, what do you say?"

"Sounds perfect to me so see you tomorrow then?"

"Yes!"

"See you tomorrow morning! Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!" She said hanging up.

Did I really agree? She thought and then remembered her Dad's words go bigger go home something that had become her motto.
