Hotch smiled as he watched his wife wander the kitchen with her daughter on her hip. Aubrey's face was cuddled into her mother's neck, her braced ankles hooked around the older woman's waist. Emily was humming a song into her daughter's ear as she fiddled with the tray of drinks that was set on the counter, her hair out of it's ponytail and waved around her pale face.
He made his way towards them and kissed both of their cheeks, watching as his wife's large eyes smiled his way. "How are you darlings?"
Emily smiled softly and leaned in to give her husband a kiss. "We're good. Aubrey and I are fixing everyone their favorite drinks, aren't we BreaBrea?"
Aubrey nodded immediately and gave a wide smile to her father. "Yup! I got SunnyD, daddy!"
Hotch laughed while lifting his youngest into his arms, being careful of the restraints on her legs. "I know that's your favorite drink, baby. What does mommy have?"
Emily rolled her eyes as she brought her glass up to her lips. "Mommy has water and a tums today."
"Your stomach bothering you?"
The brunette shrugged as she picked up the tray, focusing on not dropping a thing as she made her way into the living room. "It's probably nothing, Aaron. It's just a little upset."
Hotch nodded slowly before setting his daughter down, watching as all four kids quickly ran to the drinks that were set on the table. Once he knew everyone was situated on the couch with their specified drink, he took his wife's hand and sat her down on the bottom on their staircase. "How long has your stomach been upset?"
Emily sighed as she shook her head, running her hands through her hair. "Honey I promise you that if it's still upset tomorrow, I'll tell you and we'll go to the doctor. It's nothing bad, ok? I'll be fine."
"Emily, you didn't answer my question."
"…Yes I did."
"No Emily, you didn't."
Emily rolled her eyes before glancing over to Halie, watching as she and Jack began a hand game on the couch. "Aaron, I'm totally fine. It's just a bug, I promise."
The older man let his eyes trace over her features for several seconds before nodding his head. "You promise?"
"I promise."
