SORRY! How many of you forgot what this story was about? I'm sorry! I'll give a quick recap right now. Just sorry for the long wait. I just this story had such little response and i wasn't sure were it was heading anymore, but i am NEVER abandoning this story again. I promise. I will be updating soon!
RECAP: Emily and John adopted Matt the son that Matthew had and Emily had no idea of. Emily and Hotch are dating. Matt had an accident and fell which caused John to get mad at Emily and now Hotch wants the custody to Matt so that John will stop bothering Emily.
As always, I DO NOT OWN CRIMINAL MINDS OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS!
"Let me have the custody then." Hotch said openly
"What?" asked John confused
"If you walk away now, that means the law will take Matt away. I don't want Emily to lose him." Hotch said
Hotch tried to profile John, he looked actually confused he was considering it.
"I want the best for Em, and for the kid." John said looking down, "And I know I am not the best."
Hotch was surprised he expect more resistance from him.
"I'll give you all the rights, I'll stay away. Just take care of them… both." John said
"I will." Hotch said serious
John nodded and said, "Okay, but I do want to know what is happening in his life. He was my friends son too. Please?"
Hotch knew that, that was not something he could say, he knew that, it was up to Emily so he said, "Let's go talk to Emily."
John knew exactly why he said that and followed Hotch up to Emily's apartment.
Emily had just woken Matt up, he was a happy kid and Emily had grown very fond of the little tyke. He was energetic and it seemed he cared about Emily too.
When the door bell rang, Emily looked at her watch and knew that it must be John, he had texted her and asked to take Matt and her out, she had agreed to let Matt go but she convinced him that she was busy.
Emily walked over and opened the door and too her surprise she found, John and Hotch standing there.
"Good Morning, Emily." John Greeted
"Morning?" answered Emily almost as a question
"Hey, can we come in?"Asked Hotch hugging her lightly
"Yeah?" answered Emily still confused
"I want to have Matt's custody." Hotch said as soon as they closed the door.
"What?" asked Emily
"He wants Matt's custody." John said
"And you say?" Emily asked
"Yeah, he'll be here for Matt more." John said
Noticing Emily's discomfort Hotch asked, "Are you okay with it?"
Emily was frozen a part of her wanted to scream yes because she knew Hotch was a great father, but she also knew that no matter all the issues John and her had he was going to be a great father for Matt.
I know really short but i just wanted to say "I'm back and the story WILL continue!" sorry for the long wait and everything, and please review and tell me your thoughts!
