The Stuggle of Loving You | a. hotchner | ✔

Chapter 25

"I'm so proud of you", Aaron whispered into my ear as I laid down on his chest.

I was finished... everything. I passed, top of my class in the academy and I couldn't be happier. He was by my side the entire time. I wanted to just stay inside the whole day.

But that couldn't happen, "I got to go to work sweetheart."

I shook my head and mumbled, "Five more minutes."

"I can't be late", I rested my chin on him and glared. "You're the boss... you can be a few minutes late." He raised his hand to rub up and down my spine, "But I know you're perfect so... I guess you can go."

Rolled off of him, laying down on my back. He chuckled and stood up going into his closet and changing into his suit. The grey suit, white dress shirt and black shoes. "You're staring again."

"You have a nice ass." We laughed and I sat up, crossing my legs. "What am I going to do today?", I muttered to myself. I really had zero clue, I could go out with Chloe and them but they have jobs now. Ones that require a lot of attention.

I have been living in the apartment by myself since Chloe moved out a few months after we graduated.

Before I knew it Aaron pressed a soft kiss to my lips, "I'm going."

"Bye."

"Bye", I heard the door close and he was gone. I felt lonely within seconds, being bored out of my mind even though Aaron just left. He'll be back later.

When he left it was 6AM, Aaron was always getting in extremely early and because he had just gotten back to work he was eager to catch up on the paperwork that he missed.

It was 8AM when I actually looked back at the clock. Only taking a peak at the time when I got a phone call. I lifted my phone and brought it up to my ear, "Hello."

"Hello this is Section Chief Erin Strauss. Am I speaking to y/n l/n."

"Yes ma'am."

"Good Morning Miss. L/n. I'm calling in regard to a position in our Behavioral Analysis Unit. Could you be by FBI headquarters in an hour?"

I was in disbelief, believing in the fact that this woman was calling me. I only knew it was really Strauss because Aaron had mentioned her before. She had finished talking and was waiting for my response.

"Yes ma'am."

"I look forward to meeting you." She ended the call and I tossed my phone on the bed. I was practically jumping up and down. "Hell Yeah", I darted to my closet and started looking for clothes to wear.

I laid them on the bed and jumped in the shower. Wanting to look my best, getting out I put on some light makeup. Definitely covering the faded hickeys on my neck. After I was finished I locked up the apartment and got into the car.

Still having twenty minutes to spare, I was so excited I forgot to call Aaron about the offer.

Once I was there I got a visitor's pass and found Strauss's office. I knocked on her door, "Come in."

I opened the door and took nervous steps inside. She was sitting at her desk, "Agent Y/l/n?"

"Yes ma'am", she stood shaking my hand as I got closer. Both of us took a seat; she gave me an interview but I could tell she already was going to give it to me. Asking me questions on my education and personal experience.

"Let me take you to BAU", I followed her out of her office and down the hallway. Seeing multiple people, almost every single one of them looked intimating. "Here we are", holding open the bullpen door I walked in first.
