I felt intrusive being in hotchs house without him. I had gone back to the hotlel and grebbed our suitcases and immediately went to his house.I had some completely new found respect for him. I knew he would do anything for any one of us but, I felt like it was too much. I placed henrys things into jacks room and put my things into the guest bedroom, I didn't pay attention to anything, not wanting to feel like I was betraying his trust by having a look around. I rushed out the house and made my way to the air strip. Somehow I was on the jet first so I decided to get myself aquainted with the case. It was a cruel one. Six women all in their early thirties, blonde hair blue eyes, single moms and high paying jobs. This one cut a little too cloe to home for my liking but I sucked it up and bared my teeth not wanting to think about the similarities between me and the victims.

The only think I could tell was that he was someone on a psychotic break. The work was sloppy, it was a wonder that the locals hadn't found him by themselves. I was so engrossed in taking notes for the profile I didn't notice Hotch come in . he put his hand on my shoulder and I squealed in fright.

"jesus, Hotch! You scared me!" I said panting.

"sorry," he chuckled.

"did you get everything settled in okay?"

"oh, uh yeah, I just put henrys things into jack and mine in the spare room, is that alright/" I asked nervously.

"JJ, of course its fine, I wouldn't have asked if I wasn't alright with it, trust me. Its fine."

I felt relief wash over me with the words.

"thank you for everything by the way" I said to him.

"id do anything for a friend" he daid.

I looked into his eyes and I didn't see the usual coldness, I seen something I had only seen when he was with .
