dear agent hotchner || a.h

At one point I remembered that I had eventually cried myself to sleep, and when I had woke up the sun was shining brightly against the stained glass above us, luminating the room with colored sunshine. I was still cuddled into a sleeping Aaron's side, my head resting on his chest as he held me. I wondered if we were in a church of some sort. The room looked like a basement but the stained glass above us said otherwise, it could easily be a storage room to a church, a church that is no longer in use I'd assume. That's the only thing I could think of.

"I don't know if the camera has audio, I don't know if you guys are watching right now but I think we're in a church of some sorts. There's stained glass above us-" Just as I finsished my sentence the door slammed open and Aaron jolted awake. "Knock that off right now bitch." The UnSub says harshly and I just stared at him. "I'm just talking." I say and he scoffed. "Stop trying to give away our location. They come here and I'll kill both of you." He says and I glared at him and he back handed me causing me to gasp, staring at him with anger.

"What'd you do to him that made him so weak?" I say harshly, gesturing to Aaron who was now awake but kinda just staring off into space. He wasn't really paying attention to what was happening around him. He wasn't acting himself and it terrified me, I said it too many times but it was true. I've never seen him act in such a way. "The drugs can take 48 hours to wear off. Calm the hell down." The unsub says harshly and that was bold of him because if anyone needed to calm down it was him. He's the one out here kidnapping federal agents and drugging them. Weirdo behavior.

A wave of nausea hit me and I hurriedly stood, rushing over to the toilet but I only dry heaved. I didn't have any of my stuff I needed to feed myself, my feeding tube and the iv stand and bags I have to put said blended food in are at my apartment and even then I can't blend up anything so I can't eat no matter what. Meaning nothing was gonna come up and the absolute lack of nutrients was only furthering my nauseous spells. My head was still killing me from him hitting me yesterday and it wasn't really helping with the nausea.

When I stopped I felt a hand grab my hair and I yelped as I fell backwards onto my back. I heard Aaron yell something and I started getting up. Suddenly my vision went black and when I came to I was on my side and I could feel someone holding me. "You're okay Y/n. You're gonna be alright." I heard Aaron's voice reach my ears and I groaned, still feeling nauseous as I turned my head a bit. He had my head in his lap and I was laying on my side. "Did I pass out?" I ask softly, and when I fully turned to look up at him he looked beyond relived that I was awake.

"No you started seizing. He left when you did, the head injury could've caused it. You need a doctor." He says, worry evident in his voice and I nodded slowly. I knew that much, yeah. I ended up falling asleep again, exhausted and I awoke to lots of noise. I was laying on the ground, a kink in my neck causing to to groan. I heard yelling and multiple voices talking over eachother. I think it's what woke me up originally. I slowly opened my eyes and I felt a hand on my shoulder, rubbing gently to wake me up and I whimpered as the dull throb returned to my head.

"Hey we got you, it's okay. EMTs will be here soon." JJs soft voice of comfort filled my ears and I never felt such relief in my life to hear another person's voice. Thank God. They came for us. they found us. I slowly sat up and she helped me, immediately wrapping me into a hug, her hands slightly shaky with nerves and worry. I glanced over, resting my head on her shoulder to see the UnSub was pinned to the ground in cuffs, Derek pinning him down with a knee to the back. Both of them were yelling at eachother, the words blurring in my head.

Rossi was standing slightly behind Derek and Aaron wasn't within my sights. "Cooperate, Joseph." Rossi says and the UnSub only squirmed more under Dereks grip. "Where.." I trailed off in a whisper and she shushed me. "He's outside with the PD. Hotch is perfectly fine. Em and Spence are checking the rest of the building with SWAT. Everything's alright, we're gonna be all okay." JJ comforted me and I laid my head on her shoulder again. God I thought I'd never see them again. The room was slightly dimmed and I could tell nightfall was soon to come, the rays of sun no longer shining down through the stained glass ceiling like they once were.
