Emily gave a satisfied sigh as Hotch slid his arm around her waist before they opened the front door, letting the boys run in before them. She watched as all the lights went on, and immediately broke away from her husband, slumping into the couch. "Ughhhhhhh!"
Hotch chuckled before sitting beside her, kissing her cheek before letting her cuddle into his side, her head on his shoulder. "What's wrong, babe?"
"They were just so… horrible tonight! I mean, why did the boys pick this night of all nights to test our standards. First off, I've never seen Jack act in such an improper manner out in public, and he was being so rude to you and I AND Danny."
"Em, he's just being a big brother."
Her eyebrows knitted together, she looked up to his face and cleared her throat. "Excuse me?"
Hotch smiled as he ran his fingers through his wife's dark locks. "You know I'm a big brother, I did those exact same things with Sean. I threw things at him, we fought all the time. And besides, it's not like they're going to grow out of it, but they do love each other. They just show it differently. And I think it's good that they're starting to show that side of them."
Emily smirked before bringing him down for a soft kiss.
"So does this mean I'm forgiven?"
Emily nodded, smiling against his lips as her hand trailed down to his groin, squeezing lightly. "But, if you ever say something like that to me again, we'll be fighting for a lot longer than two weeks. And you'll have to deal with certain things all by yourself."
Hotch grinned down at his wife, taking her face between his hands and smashing his lips to hers. He nibbled at her bottom lip as a gasp escaped the brunette's mouth. He immediately took the opportunity to send his tongue into her mouth, his greedily sliding against her warm cheek.
"EW!"
Both adults immediately pulled away, their chests heaving as they looked over to the steps to see Jack and Danny, both now in their pajamas.
Emily felt that familiar blush creep up her cheeks as she buried her face into her husband's neck.
Hotch gave a cheeky smile at his kids, who both had disgusted looks crossing their features. "Shouldn't you both be getting ready for bed or something?"
Jack shook his head, oblivious to Danny making his way down the steps. "It's not a weekday! We don't gots to go to bed early, daddy."
Emily picked her head up just in time to see Danny walking right up to them, his little head the only thing peeking out above the back of the couch. She smirked slightly as he pointed a finger at his father, a scowl crossing his face. "Don't you touch my mommy."
Hotch heard Emily's chuckle before losing his grin and nodding. "I'll try not to touch your mommy anymore, bud."
Emily stood, turning quickly to wipe a tear from her cheek, before turning back around and smiling wide at her boys. "Ok! Both of you go up into Jack's room and watch a movie till' bedtime. Ok?"
Once the kids were back upstairs, Emily dragged Hotch over to the staircase, stepping on one to make her slightly taller than him. Her heels that were still on helped out. "So, you ready to go and make up?"
Hotch grinned at his wife before kissing the pulse point of her neck. "You know I am."
