Fall For You Chapter 3
Jason's Story
"Look now is not the time to talk, why don't we talk on the plane" i said trying to not think about the 3 words that she just said to me. Spencer continued to talk.
"How could we have not figured this out." Spencer said.
"Reid What are you talking about. Spit it out man" Morgan said.
"Who did we leave behind, where would we never think to look in a million years unless we had a unsub in Quantico. Well in this case we do...guys, Its Rossi." Spencer said.
"Spencer what makes you say that?" Hotch asked.
"We left him behind in Quantico, the letter said. "you never look in the last place you left." the only place that we left was the air strip in Quantico. D.M.R his initials David Micheal Rossi. Guys everything points to him you just have to trust me on this." Spencer said.
"I trust you Spence. Lets go guys to the airport. We need to stop him before he gets anymore people."Ashley said.
She spoke with an authoritative tone. One may find that attractive, that is not what i liked about her. I loved the fact that she always knew what to say when something went wrong, or when someone was in a bad mood. Best of all she was good at what she does. She knows how to run a team. We made our way to the airport but when we got there was an unexpected delay. Ashley had a real soft spot for kids. She loved Jack like he was her own, he had even taken to calling her Mommy. As we were walking onto the plane that is where everything decided to take a turn for the worst. We stepped onto the plane, and there he was, David Rossi with Jack Hotchner kidnapped.
"What are you doing with my son?" Hotch demanded
"Get off the plane, there is only one person that i will talk to, and that is your ex-girlfriend." Rossi demanded.
"Well that is kind of unfortunate, cause you and i both know that i or anyone on my team will let that, happen. Now put the gun down and let Jack go. We will make it easy for you, if not then we will play this the hard way David. We used to work together, why would you do this to me?" Hotch asked.
"Oh give it up Aaron, you never cared. All you cared about was your job, That's why you lost Haley wasn't it, because you were married to your job and not her. She got kinda pissed at that and wanted to leave. You couldn't take it and took it out on the rest of the team. Now its my turn Aaron. You will be all alone like me, like you were meant to be." Rossi said keeping the gun firm to Jacks head.
"Kill the girl fine. There are thousands more like her out there. Over bearing, controlling, thinks she knows everything. She wants to be the boss of everything and everyone, and look she is. the new Unit Chief of The BAU. Family never meant anything to me, why do you think it didn't bother me when Haley left and took the kid with her. Look you and i both know what kind of guy i really am. All work and no play makes Aaron Hotchner a very happy boy." Aaron said.
We were all kind of in shock when we heard what he was saying. Granted i knew that it wasn't true i knew how he was and the kind of guy he was. But what i didn't know was that he was setting Rossi up, while Ashley sneaked on the front of the plane. She made sure that she had the shot and that Jack wasn't in danger. Aaron kept trying to keep his gun focused on Rossi, and the Rossi's gun was focused on Aaron.
"Come on Rossi. Kill me you know that you could never hurt a kid. One innocent child that has never done anything to you. " Hotch prodded.
Ashley saw the hesitation in in Rossi's face and took the shot. He was down. He was no longer a threat to anyone. Ashley took the shot and took him out. Jack ran over to Ashley and started to cry. After everyone calmed down after what just happened we got on another plane and went home. While we were sitting on the plane, Ashley got out of her chair and walked over to Hotch, and stood there for a few seconds. After a few seconds we heard a loud cry come from Aaron.
"Dammit, again. I swear i am not going to have any facial tissue by the time i retire. What the hell was that for." Aaron said holding the side of his face.
"I don't know why don't we take a few seconds and think back. For when you called me overbearing and a whole bunch of other things. You pretty much called me replaceable, and i resent that. Considering..." Ashley said and then walked away in a huff.
"Ohhh taken out by a woman. Hotch, i think that you need to learn when the appropriate time to dodge a hit." Morgan and Hotch sat there talking. Ashley walked over to me and took the seat in front of me.
"If you want to talk, now would be the time." i said. She sat there looking at me.
I loved her eyes. They were a nice Ocean blue. You could get lost in them, like you could get lost in a storm. We sat there and talked about how we used to be. A few years ago we were together. Now i know that either of us wants to go back to the past, and stay friends. But we knew that we loved one another still and nothing could change that. Or maybe it could but for now we will stay exactly where we are friends. Spencer walked over to us and sat down, all of a sudden Ashley got really pale and she bent over the table holding her chest. When she pulled her hand away i seen blood on her hand. Spencer moved her out of the seat, and put her on the couch. I walked over. I asked Spencer to take off her sweater cause i would have felt a little awkward doing that myself. I seen that it was where she was shot that was bleeding the stitched must have popped and ripped her skin, she was bleeding pretty bad.
"Aaron get me the first aide kit" i asked. She was yelling in pain so i had to do something fast. I patched her up good enough until we were able to get back to Quantico. I gave her some morphine to kill the pain, and she fell asleep for the rest of the ride. When we got back Aaron brought her to the hospital. They sent her home that night. But her home was a hotel and Aaron didn't want her to stay there alone so she stayed with him.
