We both turned around, "JJ!" we said simultaneously, and both equally angry.
"You ever heard of knocking?!" I yelled.
"JJ, you can't tell anyone what you just saw," he said kind of scared.
"I won't, relax. Here are Dave and my reports... And I already knew," JJ said smiling at me.

Hotch grabbed the reports and was speechless.

I shot her a quick glare and said, "I'll get you back for this, you think this is funny? Payback's a bitch," I said laughing. "Just be quiet and leave," I told her not trying to sound mean.
"Kay, see you two later," she said walking out of the office smiling.
Hotch looked at me confused.
"What the hell just happened?" he asked.
I laughed. "Before when I left, I went to JJ's office. So she could tell me what to do, by the way she was no help at all, the only thing she did was laugh, but anyway she's being an ass."
He looked at me just accepting what he heard instead of arguing about it. "Well ok then."
It was quiet for a while, no one moved except for this; he took my hand and put it in his. He was staring at our hands and I was just looking at him, admiring him.
"So..." I said, "what now?"
"Well what time is it?"
I looked at my watch, "1 o'clock, why?"
"We can take our lunch break together," he said smiling at me, still holding my hand.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"Where ever you want."
I had to think about it for a while. "I haven't been to Wendy's in a while," I told him
He smiled, "ok, then that's where we'll go."

He went to get his jacket but he never let go of my hand, he grabbed it tighter when he was walking so I wouldn't let go. He dragged me behind his chair and picked up his jacket then went in his desk to get his wallet.

"Hotch, you're going to have to let my hand go sometime," I laughed.
He sighed. "I know," he replied sadly. "So get your stuff and meet me in the parking lot."

I kissed him on the cheek and walked out of his office.

A few minutes had past and I was waiting near his car.
"Rawwwr!" he yelled.
I got so scared I pulled out my gun and pointed it at him when I turned around. "What the fuck?!" I yelled back at him.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare you that much!" he said, fear in his voice.
"I almost had a heart attack! Never do that again. Jeez, just get in the damn car," I replied.
We both got into the car and he started the engine. But he didn't move the car. He put his hand on my knee, "I'm sorry, you know," he said sincerely.
"I know," I smiled, "come one, let's not ruin our first day together with a silly joke."

I leaned over and kissed his neck. He smiled and started to drive.
When we got to Wendy's he asked me what I wanted and then told me to stay in the car. I waited about five minutes for Hotch to come back, when I finally saw him walking back with bags of food.

He handed me a bag, "that's yours," he said smiling.
"I think this is the most I've ever seen you smile," I said happily.
"Well now I have a reason to smile... other than Jack," he said taking my hand.

He pulled away and started eating.
"Any reason we're eating in your car?" I asked smiling skeptically.
"I just don't want anyone to see us," he smiled, "and I want you to myself right now."
All I did was smile. I really didn't know what else to say to him. But when we finished eating he went to ask me something.

"Hey Em," he said looking out his window, "you know its Friday."
"Yes, I know its Friday. Why are you telling me this?"
"Cuz tomorrow we both have off and I was wondering if you wanted to hang out with me and Jack, you know, so he can get used to you when you watch him," he said still staring out the window.
"Yeah, of course," I said facing at him.
He finally turned around and wrapped his arms around me.
"Hotch," I laughed, "that was sudden."
I was actually really surprised. But he held onto me, softly placing small kisses on my neck. When I pulled away, he looked confused.
"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked concerned.
"I find it... different, that you are here with me. It's not weird but it seems like a dream."
I processed his answer and replied, "well you know I barley slept last night."
"Wait, what? Why?" he asked, confused at my off topic answer.
I laughed at his confusion.
"I can't sleep because reality is finally better than my dreams," I smiled wide, showing of my dimples. Hotch smiled even wider and also showed off his dimples, I've only seen them a few times before but I loved when he showed them.
"We should probably get back before someone starts to worry," Hotch said.
I nodded as he started the car again.
When we got back to headquarters, we got into the elevator, but at the last second when the doors were closing Hotch jumped out.

"Aaron!" it was too late, the doors to the elevator closed. Why did he do that? I thought. When the elevator stopped I got out and went into the bullpen to sit at my desk. The elevator doors opened and I saw Hotch walk casually into the bullpen. He caught my eye and I motioned him to go into the kitchenette. By the time I got there he was already there.

I smacked him on the chest and said, "What was that for?!"
"What? I thought this relationship was a secret? If we came in together it would make it obvious."
"Right..." I said thinking it over, "sorry I hit you."
He laughed and walked away shaking his head. He stood on the catwalk and turned around, "Hey, you're not gonna help me with these files anymore?" he called.

I totally forgot I was helping him, "Yeah, I'll be right there," I called back laughing to myself.
I finished the rest of the work he gave me pretty quick, so when I got up to leave Hotch looked up.
"Hey, where are you going?" he asked, wanting me to stay.
"Well one I have to use the bathroom," I laughed, "and two it'd be weird if I stayed here all day, what would the team start to think," I said smirking.

I walked out of his office with my best poker face and straight to the bathroom. And of course guess who was in there, Miss Penelope Garcia.

"Hey Em, wanna tell me something?" she asked smiling.
"Why would I tell you something JJ already told you?" I replied knowing JJ had told her.
Garcia squealed. "Yay! I knew you and the boss man would get together!"
"Garcia, I swear to god, if you tell anyone I will kill you. You and JJ are the only ones who know so shut up! JJ should already be dead. But do you understand, I will kill you if you tell anyone?" I said forcefully.
"Yeah I understand," she said smiling as she walked out of the bathroom.
"Great," I murmured to myself, "now two out of five already know."
They're bound to find out sometime, or we will have to tell them at one point or another. I was thinking about what could happen and just let it go. Garcia and JJ seemed happy why wouldn't the guys?

I left the bathroom and I heard Morgan call me, "Emily, come here real quick." I turned around to see Morgan and Reid in the kitchenette.
"What do you want?" I asked, realizing they were holing hands, "and why the hell are you holding hands?!" I started to laugh, when Morgan glared at me.
"The genius had some sticky ass glue on his hand and gave me a high five," he said glaring at Reid.
"Why would you do that?" I asked Reid, "and why do you always call me into these arguments of yours?" that last question was directed to no one in particular, but Morgan answered me.
"Because you are like the mother of this team and you solve a lot of problems," he said trying to charm his way out of my anger towards him.
"Well maybe you could use the daddy's help this time," I said smiling at them. "HOTCH!"
Morgan and Reid looked worried, "why did you do that, he'll shoot me!" Reid complained.
"Oh well," I said as Hotch came running towards me.
"What? What happened?" he asked confused and concerned.
"Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum over here got themselves glued together. I thought you could help them with this little problem," I said smiling and fluttering my eyelashes.

I walked around Hotch and out of the corner of my eye I could see the three men glaring at me, Hotch not wanting to deal with their bullshit and Morgan and Reid mad at me for getting them murdered.
I held in a laugh and ran to JJ's office, I could feel them still staring at me. When I got to JJ's office all I did was laugh, I was crying I was laughing so hard! JJ smiled.
"What happened?" she asked.
When I stopped laughing I told her what happened with Morgan and Reid and how I called Hotch over.
We both sat there laughing for a while when Hotch walked into the office. Damn I thought to myself as he looked at me.
