Author's Note: Hotch and Emily celebrate their first wedding anniversary together, so there isn't a whole lot of Jack and Prentiss in this chapter, but I hope you will enjoy it still. And I can't wait to read all your reviews.

Disclaimer: I do not own the best show in the world, otherwise known as Criminal Minds. Prentiss is mine, however, and so are Daniel and Emma.

Hotch glanced at the digital clock on the bedside table. Six thirty-five, it read. It was already morning, a new day. It wasn't just a new day. It was September fourth. The day he will never forget because it's the day, him and Emily got married and today was their first wedding anniversary.

He turned over on his side watching the woman sleeping beside him; he couldn't help but smile as he watched her sleep because she looked so beautiful, so lovely, so…perfect as she slept.

He dropped a feather-light kiss against her lips.

"Mmm…Aaron…"

"Morning, my beautiful wife," he whispered in a sweet tone, his breath tickling her ear. "Happy Anniversary.

Emily's eyes fluttered open slowly. "Happy Anniversary to you too," she replied back in a sweet tone, craning her neck to kiss him back slowly.

"Can you believe it's already one year of marriage bliss?" Hotch asked pulling her close to him.

"I can believe it because I loved every minute that I've got to spend with you so far and our children," she answered, while snuggling against his side. "And I can't wait to spend so many more years with you and our children." She said, while rising up a little to kiss him.

"Neither can I," he said against her lips. Then he broke the kiss when he realized something. "I just realized something."

Emily looked at her husband, a look of confusion etched in her fine features "…What?"

"I just realized that we never had a honeymoon, and I want to give you one," he answered shaking his head. "Where do you want to go for a late honeymoon?" he asked wrapping his arms tighter around Emily's waist.

"I don't care where we go for a late honeymoon as long as Jack and Prentiss can come with us." Emily answered, snuggling further into her husband's embrace.

Hotch gave her a little smile. "I guess it will be a late honeymoon and a little family vacation, I just have to find somewhere we can go," he said smiling. "Now let's talk about what I have planned for us today."

"I already know what your plans are for us today. They are spending the whole day in bed with me," she said, her eyes sparkling.

He chuckled at the mischievous yet beautiful twinkle in her eyes. "As much as I would love that idea, but I have other plans for us." He looked at her apologetically. "And the plans are for Sean to pick up Jack and Prentiss and take them for tonight, since he's in town, then I'm going to take you out to dinner and then we will come back home and have the whole house to ourselves tonight."

"Well they do sound like good plans." Emily admitted with a smile. Looking at the digital clock in the bedside table. Six thirty-nine, it read now, she looked back at her husband with a seductive smile. "We have about an hour…or so to ourselves until the children are up."

He let out a breathy chuckle and smiled back, reaching beneath the covers to take hold of her hips. "I like the sound of that." He nuzzled the soft skin of her neck. "I really do."

"Good."

And that was the start of celebrating their first wedding anniversary together.

Emily was in the process of packing her daughter's little go-bag for tonight and getting ready for her and Hotch's date, when the sound of the doorbell ringing echoed throughout the house. "I'll get it!" she yelled to her husband, who was helping their son pack his go-bag. She opened the door to reveal Sean Hotchner.

"Well someone looks stunning." Sean said, as he looked at his sister-in-law wearing a little black dress and her hair was fixed perfectly in elegant curls, and holding Prentiss in her arms.

"Just wait until you see your brother." Emily enveloped her brother-in-law in a warm hug.

"He's not going to be as stunning as you." Sean teased, as he took his nearly eleven month old niece from Emily. "Right, sweetheart, your mommy is more stunning than your daddy?" he asked, kissing the child's head.

Prentiss smiled at him and nodded her little head in agreement, then she pointed to the staircase as her brother and her father were coming down the stairs and said, "Daddy!"

"Hi, Sean," Hotch greeted, giving his brother a hug. "Thank you so much for watching Jack and Prentiss tonight."

"No problem I love spending time with my favorite niece and my favorite nephew when I get the chance to," Sean said, smiling at Jack and then at Prentiss. Looking at his wrist watch, it read seven fifteen. "We probably should get going, so you two can enjoy your evening."

Emily kissed Jack's cheek and then kissed Prentiss' forehead. "I love you both so much," she said with a warm smile.

Now it was Hotch's turned to kiss his children. He kissed Jack's forehead and then he kissed Prentiss' nose. "Be nice to your Uncle Sean, you two?"

"Okay, Daddy," Jack answered.

While Prentiss gave him a smile for an answer.

"Tell mommy and daddy bye." Sean said to Prentiss as he waved bye to Emily and Hotch.

"Bye, Mommy! Bye, Daddy!" Prentiss said, waving bye to her parents just like her Uncle Sean had taught her moments ago.

Emily and Hotch had just finished their dinner, and both of them are just sitting at their table at the restaurant just talking, when Emma and Daniel Chambers stopped by their table.

"Where are your children?" Emma asked the young couple.

"With their Uncle Sean." Hotch answered with a smile.

"This is your anniversary today, if I remember right?" Daniel said with a smile to the young couple.

"You are correct." Emily answered with a smile.

"Well, we will let you to enjoy your anniversary." Daniel said, as he took Emma's hand.

"It's nice to see both of you again." Emma said, with a warm smile.

"And it's nice to see both of you again, as well." Hotch said to the elderly couple.

As the elderly couple left, Emily smiled at her husband, before saying, "I hope that's us someday."

Hotch smiled back. "So do I."

~.~.~

"Aaron, I can walk up the stairs." Emily said, as Hotch lifted her into his arms bridal-style.

"I know, you can, but I want to do this." Hotch said, as he carried Emily up the stairs and into their bedroom.

Hotch placed Emily in the center of their bed, and the next he knew Emily was pulling him down on top of her, kissing him.

"Happy Anniversary, my love," she said against his lips.

"Happy Anniversary, my beautiful love," he replied back against her lips, then giving her the world for the rest of the night.
