Y/n pov

I hate texting with multiple people at the same time, especially if it's not in a chat.

Emily Prentiss
Are you all ready for tonight?

Jennifer Jareau
We are here, just a reminder to bring your partners

Me
Well we're both set here

Emily Prentiss
That's just mean and you know it

Aaron Hotchner
Stop arguing in the chat

And with that it's the end of that discussion. I sit down on the couch as i'm done with everything but it's only 6pm, one hour left. Which means i've got another thirty minutes to kill. But that time is filled up with something as Mark texts me.

Mark
How was your first day? Heard you got a case the first thing.

Me
How did you know that?

Mark
Well, i combined the fact that you didn't call on your first day of a new job that you adore and with people you have missed.

I'm kidding, Lexie told me that Lena has called her and talked about it. Apparently you left without saying

Me
You know i hate they're friendship right?

Mark
Yes i do, but it's your fault

And i know it is too. I was the one to suggest they stay in contact when i left.

Me
I forgot my phone at the office when we left, my new work phone didn't have her number.

BUT i did make sure that one of my teammates that was still at the office made sure that Lena had my number if she called

Mark
Still, very irresponsible

Me
You are no better than me Mark, we grew up in the same house.

Mark
I'm your big brother, it's my job

Me
Okay whatever, i got to go. I'll call you tomorrow okay?

Mark
Okay, talk to you tomorrow then

To think that that conversation took almost thirty minutes. It's still the same wonderful June weather and it's walking distance to the club so why not enjoy a nice walk. Either someone won't drink and give rides or we'll just get a cab. Before i walk out the door i glance once more in the body mirror by the door. The low waisted blue jeans and the white tank top. At least it matches with the bandage, i'm keeping it on for at least a few more hours. I try to walk out before i change my mind about the shirt, but i don't make it. I pull on a light grey cardigan and then i'm out the door. I know that i'm the only one that focuses on the faded scars that are left, that's what makes me love Mark even more. He had some cream or something that makes them fade faster that he gave to me because he knows how much i hate past reminders. Even though i have a tattoo that tells me i got out. 

There is a warm summerwind as i walk, it was a longer walk than i first thought. That or i'm just walking slowly to enjoy the sinking sun. But i can hear music from the club, now i can see it. I even recognize the cars in the lot from the office. As long as i'm not the last to arrive, I think i'm good.

I walk in and i immediately find the group i belong to. They are sitting in a booth, and i count them as i walk over to them. I'm not last. I slide in next to Morgan and what i guess is his girl. Penelope and Kevin are on the other side while Rossi is sitting next to Reid, JJ and her husband are next to the table. Three people are missing.

"Savannah, this is Y/n Sloan, our newest member. Sloan, this is my girl, Savannah." Morgan says as he leans back so i can meet her gaze with a smile.

"Hi" we both say as we shake hands. She reminds me of Lena actually, in the way her smile reaches her eyes.

"This is my husband Will" JJ says but as we're too far away from each other we just make a small wave.

"I see we're missing three people" Rossi says.

"Yeah, Lena got pulled into a surgery but should be here soon" i answer and i'm glad they chose a place in the club where we don't have to scream to hear each other. But the awkward silence i brought to the table is interrupted when i see Lena coming in through the door. She looks around and i wave her over, giving her a kiss as she sits down in the last place on the couch by the table. Guessing Emily and Aaron are going to have to sit on chairs. Her and Penelope share a smile as well as Kevin.

"This is Doctor Lena Goodwin, my fiance" i say, bragging a bit about the title, both of them. I think I'm bragging at least, I'm never sure of much anymore.

"Hi, and i'm not sure which of those things you were bragging about" she answers with a laugh, causing the other to laugh as well in anticipation for my answer.

"Both i guess" i answer with a laugh of my own. They all greet each other with names so we all know each other. Just this scene makes me happy, more than i've been in awhile. But in the corner of my eye i see JJ looking back and forth between me and someone, someone who's not sitting next to me. And it's not until i look up at Penelope that i see who. As soon as i meet her gaze she looks away with guilt. What could she be feeling guilty about? But the buzzing of my phone interrupts the smalltalk.

Emily Emily
Me and Aaron are gonna be late, don't drink to much without us

And the way she writes 'us' i almost think she means them as a couple. But last i checked they aren't. Maybe harbouring unknown feelings for each other but not a couple.And maybe the fact that she called him Aaron, because as far as i know, only me and Rossi call him that.

Me
We won't, i promise
