Author's Note: I would like to thank all of you who reviewed, and a special thanks to celticgina for her valuable ideas. Here is another note from Emily to Aaron. Please review and share any suggestions you may have. (Side Note: I think Wednesday's CM was incredibly awesome, and next week's episode looks equally awesome).
As always, I do not own Criminal Minds or any of the characters written here.
Dear Aaron,
How are you doing? I was excited to receive your letter. I had been waiting for it, but it seems like it took forever! Oh well, I guess that's the price of doing business. I have been in school for three weeks now, and I absolutely love it. My criminal statistics professor, Dave Rossi, is a criminal profiler at the FBI on sabbatical. He is totally cool. He has the most amazing stories, and he has actually published a couple of books. He told me about his job, and it sounds really cool. He told me that I should consider applying, but I am not too sure about how I feel about carrying a gun and being around such violence all of the time. It seems like his job is rather violent in nature. One thing is for sure, mother would not like that too much, but I'm sure she would learn to deal. I'm sure if you met him, you would love him. I didn't know your brother Sean had graduated from Georgetown Law. That's great.
It really does look like we are going to make it! I'm excited. For my birthday, daddy bought me tickets to each of the games. I am can't wait. I do have an extra ticket, so if you make it back home by the middle of October, maybe you could join me. You know how mother feels about me being accompanied at all times. She will tell me that it is not safe for me to be traveling to baseball games alone. We could just let her know that my favorite companion will be joining me. She detests the fact that I am such an ardent baseball fan, but what can I say? I get it from daddy. However, if I were to let her know that you would be accompanying me, I'm sure she wouldn't mind. She actually likes you. She has made kind remarks about you since you have been gone, and believe me, that is quite rare. She usually remains indifferent about security staff, but not you.
Thanks for all of your well wishes. Although you couldn't see it, your letter made me blush. I couldn't believe all of the sweet things you had to say about me. I'm happy that I could brighten your mood. You have no idea how much you brightened my mood during my time in Riyadh. You were a lot different than I thought you would be. I was expecting some staunch, old suit from the Secret Service. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate their protection, but jeez those guys can be ridiculously stubborn. Instead, I got a young, handsome, dark haired Major to be my companion. I was able to spend six entire weeks with you, and I probably know more about you than any of my previous boyfriends. Sadly, I've never even been in a relationship for that long, but I spent that long with you, and it felt like the most natural thing in the world. Aaron, I would love to get to know more about you and spend more time with you when you return home.
You are still in my thoughts and prayers. I would have it no other way. I will always be here pulling for you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Sincerely,
Em
