Chapter 2-Love confused for Hatred.
Morgan stood outside of Hotch's office hesitating to enter, he finally get's the courage.
"What the hell is going on Hotch, tell me this is not at all a plan to break the kids heart, because it sure seems like it!" Morgan interrupted what Hotch was doing.
"Get out Morgan I don't want to talk" Hotch said biting his lip.
"No I am not leaving until you give me answers HOTCH, He loves you!" Morgan said but was cut off by Hotch.
"YOU DON"T THINK I KNOW THAT!!" Hotch said angry.
"Well you wouldn't have done that if you loved him" Morgan said before turning out of Hotch's office. After Morgan left, Hotch sat there thinking of what Morgan said it was true if he did love Reid we wouldn't have just left with out saying anything. But maybe that was just it Hotch didn't love Reid as much as Reid love him, and he hated himself for it. Hotch loved Ashley now and nothing was going to change that not Morgan and not Reid. Hotch's thinking was cut short by Ashley knocking on his office door.
"Yeah come in" Hotch said.
"Hey is everything ok? Ashley asked.
"Yeah" he stated as he wraps his arms around her. He smothered her with his chest but she liked it.
"I love you Ashley" Hotch said as he was giving her the most loving but yet gentle hug he could muster.
"I love you too Aaron." She said.
"Than marry me I love you and there is nothing that I can do to change it." Hotch said while getting down on one knee. But before Ashley could answer Hotch's cell phone rings. Hotch sighs than answers his phone.
"Hello?"
"My name is Peter Petrelli and I think I know who is committing all of the crimes happening here." Peter said.
"Wait this is that Sylar case is it not, but I thought the BAU went down there and solved the case." Hotch said confused.
"No one came down here from the FBI, can you help me please I need to stop him before he kills anymore." Peter was now finding himself begging.
"Sure I will be there tomorrow." Hotch said. Hotch decided to only take a couple of people with him since Peter knew who was committing all the crimes it shouldn't be hard to catch him. He walks into the bullpen where everyone was standing taking there lunch break.
"Listen up, Morgan, Reid, Buell and Buell you are coming with me. Go home and pack your bags we are leaving in 2 hours." Hotch said while leaving the BAU office. Reid stopped beside Aaron and grabs his hand.
"So what was that all about Aaron?" Reid said.
"What was what about?" Hotch asked but he knew full well what Reid meant.
"You know what I am talking about, you just disappearing." Reid said.
"Ohh that, look I just had to get away." Hotch said walking as he stepped into the elevator.
"Look Hotch I can't do this anymore either you love me or you don't but as far as I am concerned we should just stay good friends and co-workers." Reid said as he hugged Hotch.
"I Think I can deal with that." Hotch said than kissed Reid's forehead. Ryan steps in beside Ashley.
"So you going to tell me where you went?" Ryan asked.
"Nope" she said shortly.
"Well at least tell me why you left." Ryan begged.
"I just wanted sometime to myself is that such a problem for you." Ashley was getting angry now Ryan was trying to be to much like dad and she hated that.
"I just want you to be safe that is all" Ryan said trying to calm her down.
"Ryan I track down serial killers for a living, I don't think there is anything safe about it." Ashley said while stepping out of the elevator. Hotch was waiting for her. Ryan hated the fact that Ashley had become to distant, she loved someone that probably doesn't love her back, of course Ryan was always a bit jealous of his sister ever since they were 5 and their parents always would pay more attention to her.
"Hey and about before… Yes" she said kissing him. She knew that Ryan would hate her but she did not care. Ashley wanted to tell Ryan the big news but couldn't find him anywhere so she would just tell him on the plane. Just than Ashley's cell phone ring it was unknown name and unknown number.
"Hello?"
"so miss your brother yet, don't worry he is fine wont hurt him yet, he has something that I want, and so do you, Ohh and tell petrelli I said hi." the voice said, than the phone call ended.
"hey Hotch, have you seen Ryan at all in the past like 5 minutes?" Ashley asked Hotch while getting into the car.
"No I haven't why?" Hotch wondered. Ashley pulls out her cell phone again.
"Garcia can you get a trace on the last caller on my phone?"
"yeah no problem, uhhh, is everything ok?" Garcia asked
" umm yeah, no not really Ryan is missing and I think someone has taken him." Ashley said In tears, even though a few moments before she was pissed off at him, but she was more scared than ever. A few moments after they land at the air port, they meet with Peter Petrelli.
"Peter can I talk to you alone for a sec?" Ashley asked.
"sure" he agreed while being dragged away from Hotch.
"I heard that some people here in N.Y can do things that others cant" she stated.
"yeah I can fly, what can you do?" Peter wondered
"Well I have TK and I also can absorb other people powers." She went on to explain. "Sylar has my brother and I think I know what he wants with us?"
"Wait you mean you're a super too?" Peter asked looking all confused.
"yes now look you have to help me get my brother before he kills him please?" Ashley now too was finding herself begging.
