when i'm in a room with you,

when you're by my side darling,
nothing can bring us down.

Ada's POV
"So, to catch you both up, we have interviewed a friend of the second victim," JJ reports back to us as Aaron and I walk through the BAU, "and now we have a good idea of where the UNSUB and Ava met, so Penelope is looking into the CCTV."
"Where was it?" Aaron asks as we walk up the steps to the office balcony.
"The mall," JJ answers, "However the friend thinks that they actually met in the car park, while Ava was walking to her car, so the CCTV may not be as extensive as we would have hoped."
"We could try and get a look at his car though, if we can follow where the UNSUB walks after he meets with the victim, the options will be narrowed down to at most a row of cars," I suggest, opening the door to the roundtable room and walking in, Aaron and JJ walking in behind me.
Penelope sits with Reid at the table, staring intently at her screen. Emily, Derek, and Rossi are standing with their backs to us, pointing at the large whiteboard in front of them, scattered with pictures and scrawling sentences. JJ takes a seat next to Penelope.
"Team," Aaron greets, dropping his briefcase on the table, the team turning their attention to us, "We have information from our survivor, Connie. Ada?" He looks across at me, his eyebrows raised in prompt.
"Oh yeah," I clear my throat and straighten up to face the group, "So, she was approached by the UNSUB at a cafe in West Mundspids, he told her his name was Frederick- it was most probably a cover name, however, it may still have significance to our UNSUB. He fits the profile we had come up with, all traits pointing to a narcissistic personality."
"He seems to be obsessed with lying," Aaron continues, "It's under our idea that he has stalked and researched the victims beforehand, in order to try and catch them in a lie. When he does, he sees it as an opportunity to attack."
Nodding, I turn my attention to Penelope, "Garcia, would you be able to check the CCTV from the car park at Beachwood Cafe, we're looking for a crossover between number plates between that and the car park at the mall where he approached the second victim."
"On it." She says with determination.
"We've got Connie working with a sketch artist, until then, keep working on the details, we don't want to miss a thing." Aaron orders, before setting his eyes on me, "Right, darling, can I borrow you for a second?"
My body froze.
The room stopped.
I closed my eyes.
Perhaps no one noticed, they're so involved in their work right now that maybe-
"Darling?" Derek's voice pierced through the silence.
I suck in a breath and open my eyes, them falling on Aaron's face, which looked almost pained.
Penelope's gasp echoes through the room as if she had heard the slip-up on delay.
