UnSub's POV
The knife is cold against my skin, and I've finally worked up the courage to drag it across my jugular. I take a moment to reflect upon my life up until this point, but I'm interrupted mid-thought, by a knock on my door.
I put the knife down under a pillow on the couch, and walk to the door. I lift the curtain over the small glass panel to see who it is, and my heart skips a beat when I see Aaron Hotchner. He's here to arrest me. Oh God. He can see me, so I pull my dressing gown to, and open the door.
"Hi, I'm Agent Hotchner from the FBI. I need to ask you a few questions if that's okay." He says politely.
I'm still panicking. Does he know it's me? "Hi.." I reply. I sound surprised and unnatural. I talk to myself in my mind, and calm myself down.
"What do you want?" I ask.
"There's been a murder in the area, your neighbour called the police. Have you seen or heard anything that could help with our investigation? Even something that may seem irrelevant may be very helpful to us." He answers kindly.
Okay, he doesn't suspect me. That's good. I raise my eyebrows in disbelief, and look to the left so he thinks I'm remembering something that actually happened, rather than fabricating a memory.
After a moment I shake my head. "No, not that I can recall...Sorry." I say. He nods his head, but he's looking at me like he knows what I've done. It's making me uncomfortable.
"It's okay. Thank you for your time. I'll be back if I have any more questions." He says, and I smile whilst nodding, but I don't think my smile's very convincing. I'm a mess.
"Cool. Bye then I guess." I utter, hoping he'll leave before I start crying again.
"Whatever's wrong, it'll get better eventually. Try and stay strong. Goodbye." He says stoically, and then leaves.
I gasp, but he's already down the ramp, so he doesn't hear me. I slam the door shut, get the knife from the couch, and throw it back in the kitchen draw.
He knew, he knew I was about to kill myself. I can't do it. I'm not going to kill myself tonight, that decision is easy to make.
I've also made the decision to speak to Spencer later; that's going to be hard. But for now, I'm going to sleep and evade reality.
