Don't own anything.
"Good morning," Emily yawned as she rolled over to face Aaron. "How long have you been awake?"
"Morning. Uh, for about five minutes, I think."
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
"You look too pretty when you sleep. Plus you needed it," he responded easily.
"Well, we have the entire day to ourselves. What do you want to do?" Emily grinned evilly.
"You little…"
With that he kissed her with so much passion. When they pulled apart, she laughed and said: "Mr. Hotchner, please don't start something you can't finish."
"Who says I'm starting anything? I'm just kissing my beautiful… Emily, will you be my girlfriend?"
"That was random," she laughed. "But, of course. I'd love to be your girlfriend."
'Oh my goodness. Did he just ask me what I thought he just did? I, Emily Prentiss, am now Aaron Hotchner's girlfriend. Wow. I never thought this day would come. How long have we been going out for? Oh right, ha. We've only been going out for one day and I am already his girlfriend. Ah!' She mentally screamed. 'Emily, get a hold of yourself! You've been best friends with him for so long and you have always been this attracted to him, only this time, you are actually his girlfriend. That sounds so right,' Emily thought to herself.
'Oh my, Aaron thought to himself. Just five simple words and… now you have a stunning girlfriend. Stunning, hilarious, loving, simple yet so complex, could I have gotten luckier? She is amazing. My girlfriend… that sounds so right.'
"Emily, do you want to go on another date? This time, as my girlfriend?"
"Definitely, maybe. It depends on when it is. Let me check my calendar." With that, she reached into her bag, grabbed her phone, and checked her calendar. "Looks like I'm all busy," she said in mockery. "Joking. I am free as a… chair that someone put on the curb with a cardboard sign saying 'free – take me'"
"Nice analogy. Are you comparing yourself to a chair? That's just not healthy."
"At least you get my point, sweetheart," she finished.
Later that day, Aaron took Emily out for lunch.
"Excuse me for a second," he got up to go to the washroom.
When he was washing his hands, one of his best friends that he hadn't seen in a while came out of the stalls.
"David Rossi. How goes it?"
"Long time no see, old buddy old pal. What have you been up to lately?"
"Well, I have an amazing girlfriend now only she's not the kind of girl that you would just have a little fling with for a few weeks. She was my best friend for a few years now," Aaron bragged. "God, that sounds so right to say; girlfriend."
"And when do I get to meet this lovely lady?" Asked the Old Italian.
"Well, you can meet her right now if you'd like. We came here for lunch because we both have the day off."
"What's her name?"
"Emily. Emily Prentiss."
"Wait a second Hotch. Do you mean 'Prentiss' as in Ambassador Prentiss' daughter? Does the ambassador know?" Dave asked in a somewhat concerned tone.
At that, Aaron laughed. "Yes and yes. When I was working my first job with the FBI, I was assigned to do the security detailing for her mother," they slowly arrived to the table that Emily and Aaron were sitting. "Emily and I became best friends and… things just fell into place. After Emily's twenty-fifth birthday, her mother held a party and she practically begged me to go with her. She made up some lame excuse saying her mother always set her up with some posh bum."
"That was not 'some lame excuse'. It was the truth!" Emily defended.
This time, it was Emily to continue. "Anyways, he said he would go on one condition: that I let him take me out on a real first date. From there, things just 'fell into place' and now, he's my boyfriend. That sounds so right to say," then she kissed Aaron.
"That's really sweet Hotch. Didn't know you were such a romantic behind that stoic mask of yours. Well, my friend is waiting for me to pay the bill because he's a cheapskate. Have a good afternoon Aaron and I will see you later. It was a pleasure to meet you Ms. Prentiss and I hope this is not the last time I will see you," he finished biding the couple farewell.
Aaron sighed. "All of this just feels so right."
