You loved it when mornings started like any other, there was a certain thing about monotony that was calming. Aaron was running around the house, fixing his tie and you took charge of getting Jack ready for school.

"Got your agenda?" you asked.

"Yep," he nodded. "But you didn't sign it,"

"No worries, I carry a pen at all times just in case," you grinned just as Aaron walked by. "Hey babe, can I have your pen?" you asked which made Jack chuckle.

"Mom, I thought you said you had your own," he pointed out.

"Yeah, but I get your dad to carry it cause I'm always with him, right Aaron?" you asked.

"Right you are my sweet," he nodded and pressed a quick kiss to your lips before you leaned down to sign Jack's agenda.

There was a knock at the door again and Aaron motioned that he would go grab it.

"Hey Hotch," JJ smiled as she and Henry entered the home. "Thanks for doing rides again,"

"Oh it's no problem," he insisted.

Jack was quickly distracted now that Henry was around and they started to talk about their comic books and you went to greet JJ with a hug.

"Hey Jayje," you smiled.

"Ready to come back to work?" she asked.

"Am I ever," you nodded. "As much as I loved hanging out with my guy over there, I'm itching to get some action,"

"You could've just asked," Aaron muttered as he walked past you and JJ's eyes went wide as her jaw dropped open and you had a hard time holding back a slightly embarrassed smile.

Aaron was in front of the safe, going to take out his gun and holster it so you could head out of the house, Jack and Henry were at the table and JJ and you stood watching them from the entry to the dining room. The image was ingrained in your mind because that's when it happened.

That's when the door was slammed open and Aaron whipped out his gun like it was a reflex.

"Put the gun down!"

JJ was fast and grabbed Henry and Jack, holding them close as SWAT entered your home.

"I'm Agent Aaron Hotchner, this has to be a mistake, I'm on duty," he informed them.

"Put your weapon down!" they were unwavering, their guns pointed straight at your husband and you stood there frozen in shock while your step-son called out for his father.

JJ sent Aaron a look and he slowly lowered his gun which whipped you out of your trance.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" you stepped in between Aaron and the barrel of the large gun.

"Ma'am get out of the way-,"

"Get out of the-why the hell are you arresting my husband?! You heard him! He's the Unit Chief of the Behavioural Analysis Unit!"
