Aya's pov

"Aya" O'Conner says walking into my office.

"Wassup" I say not looking up from my paper work.

"So I need these papers signed by you then I need them sent to the DOJ" he says placing 6 thick files down on my desk.

"It'll be done by the end of that day, is that all?" I ask

"Why do you have to be so serious all the time" he say says taking a seat in the chair near my desk. I finish the file I was working on and add it to the stack of finished files piled up from the ground.

"Jesus Christ are those from today?" He asks looking the pile.

"Yea, the intern who comes in hourly stopped coming in after lunch so they've been piling up." I say adding another pile.

"Jesus Christ" he says. I continue my work. After an hour of working the phone on my desk rings.

"Deputy Director Dr. Aya Salazar" I answer monotoned.

"Hey its Dr. Reid from The BAU" she says

"Hello"

"Sorry to bother you but I was wondering if you had any files for he bau, the team in gettin anxious and annoying" he says and I let out a small laugh.

"Yes, I have quiet a few for the whole building, I'll send a intern down with some in the hour"

"Thank you, also when can I take you out again?" He asks

"Sorry Dr. Reid but those conversations will have to wait until 5 when I am off work" I say softly. I'm not rejecting him or anything I just have a fuck ton of work to do.

"I'll talk to you then Deputy" he says and hangs up the phone. I continue working on the file and once im done I grab the roller cart in the corner of my room. I place all the files in the baskets for the different departments and walk out of my office. Usually people would get interns or their PAs to do this work but my PA Larissa is already over worked and Interns like to fuck up where the files go. Working my way down I start at Cyber then Counter terrorism, then the Tech floor, Counter intelligence, White Collar. Lastly Behavioral Analysis. I step off the elevator on the 6th floor to give then their 4 files. Mostly paperwork for them but 1 is a case that came from Amoura a few hours ago. I walk through the bullpen laying a file on Dr. Reids desk & Agent Prentiss' desk. One goes to TA Garcia and the last one goes to Jennifer Jareau so she can present the case. Once I finish placing the files in the bullpen I leave to Garcia's office down the hall. Swiping my badge on the door, I open the door with one hand.

"Please be my chocolate thunder" she says loudly.

"Nope" I say with a laugh.

"Oh Deputy Director Salazar, um, how are you doing on the fine evening" she rambles out. Penelope Grace Garcia, Ex- hacker. The Behavioral Analysis' personal Technical Analyst. Wonderful at her job, but runs off at the mouth. Lovely person though.

"It's going great Penelope thank you" I say handing her the last file. Then there is a knock on the door before I was opened.

"Garcia can you help me finish this file I can't remember a few of the details" Agent Prentiss says holding up the file I just placed on her desk.

"Oh hi Deputy Director" she

"Good evening, please have those files back by tomorrow morning" I say walking out of the room. I grab my cart an head back up to my office.

"So how was your date with Dr. Reid?" Brian asks as I sit at my desk. I look at him (he looks at me)

"What?" I say nervously
