The Love We Found. [A.H]

1: 5 years

It has been 5 long years at the bau, lots of birthdays, Christmass, Thanksgivings, Easters, Halloweens, and many many nights out.

But even with it being my 5 year anniversary with everyone, I don't want to celebrate, but knowing Penelope Garcia our technical analyst, I highly doubt she wouldn't let me not celebrate.

-at the office-

I barely made it to my desk with my coffee before the loud blond came to give me her classic hug.

She embraces me tightly and I laugh. “omg Isabella, I can't believe you've been with us for five years!!” She says loudly and excitedly. I laugh. “Hey pen, you know I couldn't quit if I wanted to” I say jokingly, she giggles.

After a little talking, she lets me get started on my paperwork. Me, Penelope and our boss Aaron Hotchner, always get to the bau before everyone else. I like to get started before I'm technically supposed to be here, so I can get out early.

I hear the glass doors open and I hear Derek Morgan and Spencer Reid, two of the men I work with, come into the bullpen, I turn around in my chair and look at them. “Good morning, boy wonder and morg” I say, two nicknames I gave them, granted I stole boy wonder from Jennifer aka JJ our liaison officer. “What's up pretty girl” Morgan says, he has nicknames for everyone, and mine is pretty girl. “Morning,” Reid says, taking his seat at his desk. “You know,”I say sarcastically, answering Morgan. He laughs, and takes his seat at his desk.

Around 10 minutes later, Emily Prentiss comes in, our desks are right across from each other's. “Good morning, raven” I say as she takes her seat at her desk, her nickname is raven, because of her hair color and her look when she was in high school.

“Morning” she says, Emily is not a morning person, and it shows. We all continue to work on paperwork.

-lunch time-

JJ comes into the bullpen with her lunch, like always, same with Penelope, rossi and hotch eat together sometimes but normally they stay in their respective offices. “You know, Isabella, we should go out tonight after work, to celebrate” pen says finishing her lunch, I shake my head. “Babygirl has a point, we should” Morgan chimes in, then the rest. “You can go out, but I'm not” I say, throwing away the wrapper from my lunch and pen and Morgan makes pouty faces at you. “Not happening” I say,they give up, and by that point lunch is over.

We all head back to our respective places and continue to work. Then I get a call. I check the caller ID, it's hotch, my boss. It's odd he could just call me to his office, but nonetheless I answer. “Isabella speaking,” I say. “Hi, izzi, could you watch Jack for me after work today? His aunt is out of town and Struss just called a meeting.” he says. “Umm, sure, where do I need to pick him up from?” I ask. “Well he does a program called peak until 6, so from the school” he says, “okay, I can do that” I respond. “Thank you” he says before hanging up.

The thing about Aaron Hotchner, is, he lost his wife, has a 8 year old son, and came up with a unique nickname for me the year after I started, witch is unusual, besides JJ who everyone calls JJ, but that's because it's easier, granted Isabella isn't long but is at the same time. Anyways, I checked the time, 5:30. Jack's school is about 10 minutes away.

I pack up my stuff, and Morgan asks where I'm going, “let's just say my favorite BAU child needs me.” I say, Jack called me his favorite profiler besides his father, and since then I've called him my favorite BAU child. “Hotch needed you to get him?” He asks and I nod, this is something I've done before, is get Jack from school for Aaron. Saying his dreads wife's sister normally gets him, but on the occasion she's sick, or out of town, he asked me to get him, witch I'm not complaining, I love jack, but it's always been a little confusing why hotch would ask me and not Rossi or JJ, as JJ has kids and Rossi is over that hotch's house often. But nonetheless. Morgan nods and I bid goodnights and stay safe, as they are going out after work.
