Not all can fix it
Decisions
Hotch walked into Emily's apartment even though he knew she was in no way in favor of it. Luckily for her Rossi was there and she could feel that he was as angry as she was.
"Now," Hotch said with his SSA voice, "Care to explain?"
"First of all," Emily said walking up to stare Hotch down, "Don't you dare yell at me. When you're stupid little friend caused this."
"Why don't you stop calling her my stupid little friend?" Hotch growled
"Because I don't feel like it!" Emily yelled back she couldn't believe was acting like this. Why in the world would he be mad at her? This just proved to her that Aaron Hotchner was a man that was not worth anything. First he cheated on her. Second he comes yelling at her for something his stupid little friend did.
"Hotch!" Rossi called from the other side of the room. "Why don't you relax or get the hell out!"
"You know what Dave? Stay out of this! This is none of your god damn business so stay out of it!" Hotch growled at Dave
"Get out… NOW!" Emily screamed pointing to the door and stretching her arm to point. Emily could feel a slight pain but no way in hell would she let anyone know.
Silence took over for a moment. "Em…" Hotch said realizing how stupid it was for him to be mad at her. She wasn't responsible for anything. If there was any one to blame it would be him and Jane. Not Emily… never her. He was the one that made the first mistake the one that kept making mistake after mistake.
"No… Stop it Hotch. If you're going to be an ass and blame me for this than you know… you can go out that door and straight to hell." Emily growled as she felt tears in her eyes. Tears that would not fall… she wasn't going to let them fall.
Hotch felt taken back even more. He had heard Emily curse before but never at him directly. It took a lot to make a women like Emily Prentiss get that angry. And that just pained him even more in one single day he had destroyed her. In one single day he had made her change. "I'm sorry." Was all he could manage to say.
Emily froze she had expected him to apologize but the simple fact that he had and that she could hear how sincere he truly was made her freeze. She couldn't let herself forgive him with a simple apology. But she also couldn't let a man like Hotch get away from her. This just made Emily want to cry even more. How could someone so perfect for her betray her and ruin it all in one simple day.
Rossi knew that they both needed to talk and that the issue would not be resolved that night but hopefully Hotch could see that Emily is all right and leave. That was truly all he hoped for. Rossi walked into the kitchen wanting to be close if needed but still giving them privacy.
"Emily please you have to listen to me. I am sorry…. I made a foolish mistake and mistake that I will regret for the rest of my life but…" Hotch began but then froze as he stopped to think of what he really wanted there and then. True, he loved her but he didn't want to have her on edge or doubting him or worse herself. But Hotch had also learned that it was better to love from a distance, better and safer.
"…but? But what? Hotch?" Emily asked, she felt like everything was getting worse. Was he finally realizing that she wasn't worth it that she wasn't even worth getting back together with?
"Nothing… Emily I think it would be best if you go rest. If you want don't come in tomorrow… better yet take the week off. I'm sorry I have to leave. I… I lo… I… I left Jack… with Jessica I have to go get him." Hotch said as he stood still and waited for her reaction.
Emily couldn't believe it she felt like that was simply the icing on the cake. He had the nerve to actually leave once she thought they might fix it to an some extreme. But she would never let him see how much it actually hurt her. "Okay bye." Was all she could actually say.
"Bye." Hotch said as he turned around and as swiftly as possible exited the apartment.
Emily was frozen in place. The man she loved had made out with someone else in the parking lot of their work, confessed to sleeping with someone else, asked for forgiveness, yelled at her, asked for forgiveness again and then almost took it back and left.
Emily could believe how horrible the day actually was. Emily actually felt herself break. Her sobs were the only sound she heard. Her tears running down her face with great force. Suddenly Emily felt two strong hands wrap around her. David Rossi. He didn't say anything simply wrapped his arms around the women he considered his daughter and let her cry.
Emily could feel herself shaking with the sobs and Rossi gently rocking her in a soothing motion. Emily knew that if David Rossi was ever a father he would one of the best ones. She personally had never had a great father figure, as he was always away and working but she was glad that Rossi was there for her. Emily never actually noticed when her eyes stopped watering and became heavy with sleep. It seemed like hours had passed by until her eyes finally closed and her breath evened out.
David Rossi looked down at Emily, her head resting on his shoulder and his arms around her. He saw that even in her sleep she wasn't peaceful. He knew he shouldn't be angry but he couldn't help it. Hotch had broken the one agent he admired the most. How could he personally forgive his friend for that?
Rossi moved his hand under Emily's knees so he could carry her to her room. He carried Emily bridal style to her room and laid her down in the center and placed a warm looking blanket on top of her. Rossi couldn't help but smile. He had acted like such a father that day. That just made him wonder, what would have happened if he had kids?
Rossi walked out and went to the guest room across the hall. He had stayed at Emily's before when his needed a paint job. He knew she wouldn't mind so he himself got comfortable in bed and hoped for the best.
Sooooo? What did you guys think? There is more angst coming up! Please review!
