6 Months Later

It has been 6 months since the whole Philip ordeal. Aaron interrogated him and he finally confessed and was sent to prison. Since I went off at him, he hasn't spoken to me unless it was for work. I can't say I blame him, I really went off on him. Every time we are alone in a room together he finds a way to leave. I can tell that I hurt him and he was just trying to do what he thought was right which was, giving me space. 6 months of space is a little over the top but he did say that he couldn't be with me and I respect his choices.

I have been occupied with work anyways. It's been a calm 6 months for us but I was waiting for us to get a big case. There was one time, 4 months ago where I was alone with Aaron and I tried to apologise for the 40th time. He just said he knew I didn't mean it but we can't be together. After that, I haven't called him by his first name at all. I either call him Hotch or sir now. Its painful but he believes it's for the best.

I met a guy too. His name is John and he's sweet. We've gone out on 2 dates but i've kept those a secret from any body. I didn't want Aaron to find out. I haven't slept with John, or kissed him for that matter. He figured my past was a lot once he saw my tattoo. We both pretended it didn't happen but I know he saw it. I also spilled my guts about Aaron to him. I didn't mention the part where I still love him, just that I used to and then we broke up.

Today we were called to Ohio for a case. John is also currently in Ohio and he decided he would come surprise me at the police station.

Not. A. Good. Idea. John.

The thought is sweet, but I really don't want Aaron to know about him. John just text me that he was outside so I walk out to see him.

"Hey Y/n" He smiles as he hugs me
"Hi John" I smile back
"I brought lunch" He says as he holds up a bag of food for me.
"Thanks, let's eat it in the car" I say and he nods. We both walk to my car and sit inside.

Derek

It's been 6 months since Y/n went off at Hotch. Ever since then he's been buying double lunch and giving it to me to give to her. He's too stubborn to let her know it's him. It's embarrassing for me because she must think I have a thing for her. I see him walk into the station with food and I sigh as he walks over to me.

"Where is she?" He asks
"She went outside"
"Can you give this to her?" He takes out her favourite sandwich and holds it towards me
"You should really give it to her yourself" I say and he sighs
"I can't, please Derek" Hotch barely ever calls me Derek, only when it's serious. I nod and grab the food out of his hand. I walk outside and see Y/n in her car... with a guy.

I walk over to her and she rolls down the window.
"I brought you food" I say and she smiles at me
"Thanks Der, but I already have some" She says and the guy looks at me
"You must be the infamous Derek" He says as he holds his hand out to me and I wearily shake it.

"Yes, and who are you?"
"I'm Y/n's boyfriend" He says and my eyes go wide
"Boyfriend?" I ask and she licks her lips and shakes her head.
"I'll just go take this back" I say as I walk away. She has a boyfriend???? This is not going to end well at all.

I walk back inside and Hotch is doing up his vest.
"We need to go" He says and I nod as I grab my vest.
"Where's Y/n?" He asks
"In her car"
"Tell her we need to leave, grab a ride with her"
"She has a... friend in her car"
"No time to let them out, we need to leave now!" He says and I nod as I rush outside. I run into Y/n's car.
