Back to reality
Notes: More Dallas in this chapter. Infact it's mostly Dallas. Oh and this is 3 months since the last chapter. -In reality this is after JJ's departure. In my world, and many of the other CM fans' worlds, JJ is still here- Not many flash-backs here.
"Thank you, Ma'am for allowing me to re-join the BAU" Rowe said, smiling and shaking Strauss' hand.
"It's my pleasure, Miss, or should I say Agent Oceanus. I trust you know how to use a gun" Strauss said handing Rowe her badge and gun. Rowe nodded and clicked her gun into her belt and put her badge in her gun.
"Agent Hotchner will show you to your desk" Strauss said, and with that Rowe was walking down the hall of the BAU again.
"So hows Mick Rawson, may I ask?" Hotch said smirking and giving Rowe a knowing look
"What?" Rowe said in a suprised tone, then she sighed knowing she wasn't going to get away with it. "Fine. We dated for 7 months. Then we decided we should just remain friends."
"This is your desk. No one has touched since you left" Hotch said smiling. Rowe sat quickly down and looked at her desk of pictures, of Hotch, Elle, Emily, JJ, Garcia, Morgan, Rossi, Gideon and Reid.
"DALLAS ROWE!" Garcia screamed from the entrance like a teenaged girl over a popstar. Rowe looked up.
"PENELOPE GARCIA!" Rowe screamed back, running to hug Garcia.
"I'm so glad you back!" Garcia said squeezing Rowe.
"And I'm so glad the rest of the team aren't here to hear you two scream" Hotch said walking past, a grin on his face and rubbing his ear jokingly.
"How have you been girlie? I love the hair" Rowe said teasing Garcia's red hair
"Not much and thank you! Kinda wanted your hair" She said. The two walked to Rowe's desk. Morgan walked into the BAU. "Dall? Is that you? Didn't recognise you for a minute!" Morgan said approaching
"Derek Morgan you look stunning" She said hugging him.
"Your just in time! She's about to tell me about a guy" Garcia said. Prentiss next walked in and wolf-whistled.
"Who's this guy?" She said pulling up a chair.
Just then Reid walked in and sat on his desk, the one directly facing Rowe. Niether Rowe, Morgan, Prentiss or Garcia noticed him.
"God Damn Aaron. You know Mick Rawson?" Rowe continued
"That arrogant, egotistical, over-sexed guy we worked with in San Francsico?" Prentiss asked.
"Yes." Rowe agreed
"You mean the hot, sexy, British guy with a damn sexy accent" JJ said walking past and handing them files.
"Wait till you actually date him" Dallas said rolling her eyes.
"Guys" Hotch said from the meeting room. All of them walked in but Rowe.
"I'm going to get some coffee" Rowe said.
Reid had his head in a book that he didn't hear Hotch over all the noise. After everyone had gone she notcied Reid.
"Hey, You might so well help me out Spencer" Rowe said smirking. Reid looked up quickly, dazed.
"Where is everyone?" Reid said, his eyebrows furrowed and frowned in confusion.
"You really get sucked into a book there Spencer" She said, ruffling his hair, "just noticed. You got your hair cut" She said cocking her head to the side, "Why?"
"Morgan said I should" He said getting up and helping Rowe with the coffee in the break room.
"I thought I was terribly sweet." She said getting a few cups up.
"Sweet?" He said blushing.
"Yes sweet. But now I just your hair's just... Hot" She said, cornering him. She pulled her hand through his hair. Reid felt a click. He moved his hands around Rowe and kissed her neck. The two then heard a cough. They looked up to find Morgan. He wolf-whistled and winked.
"Guys. Sorry, no coffee" He said smirking
