The Love We Found. [A.H]

16. case

Me and Reid arrive at the San Francisco Police department and right off the bat I hate it. “Are you FBI?” One of the officers asked. “We are, I'm doctor Isabella drâgos and this is doctor Spencer Reid, the rest of our team is at other locations” I say holding out my hand for a hand shake, the officer ignores my hand shake. “I thought doctors only worked in hospitals” he says and I try desperately to not say anything rash. “Both me and Reid have PhDs in non medical fields” I say and the officer rolls his eyes. “Can you show us where we can set up, please?” I ask and he shows us a conference room that we can set up in.

After about an hour or so, Aaron, Rossi and JJ get back. “The only thing about the crime scene is that they are all on public benches but the men are murdered in a different location” JJ says and I sigh, this case is so frustrating and it just started. 20 minutes later Emily and Morgan walk in. “The families of the victims say that they went out to grab something for Christmas, and that they all went to the same store” Morgan says and I'm slightly less frustrated, as that gives me something to make an eval. I stay quiet as the rest of the team starts doing their thing, as I make my evaluation of this unsub.

Three men. Douglas Morocco, Noah Bush and Brandon Burger. All 45, brown hair, blue eyes, tall, all built the same, middle class families, they all shop at the same store. Alright I have the unsubs type, now pinpointing where they could have met, obviously the grocery store. “We should call Garcia and see who was working on the nights the men died, if there's a person overlapping, then we might have lead” I say looking up from my notebook, Aaron nods and calls Garcia and tells her.

After about 20 minutes Garcia calls us back to tell us that one person overlapped the days of the murders. Edward kola. He's also not working today, so Aaron has Morgan and Emily give him a visit. And while they are gone, I give myself a break and go get coffee from the break room. I walk into the break room and find the same officer from before. “I still don't understand why you get to be called a doctor even though you aren't an actual doctor” he says as I grab a disposable coffee cup. I sigh. “when someone gets their P.H.D their title gets changed from just their name to Doctor because they have perfected or researched their topic that they wrote about, and mine are in human psychology and law” I explain and he still doesn't get it. “I still don't understand but don't expect me to call you doctor” he says. And I turn around to look at him after I finish getting my coffee. “If you call me agent or by anything other than doctor drâgos, then I'll have a lengthy conversation with your police chief” I say before walking out and going back to the conference room. I sit back down frustrated beyond belief, and Aaron can tell. “Me and Bella are going to go talk with the employees that are on shift to see what they think of Edward” Aaron says and we nod.

When we get to the SUV Aaron grabs my hand in his. “What's wrong?” He asks and I let out a sigh. “This case is frustrating and not to mention one of the officers just said that he wasn't going to call me by my title but then I kinda threatened that if he did that I'd talk to the chief” I say and he chuckles a little bit at the last part. “I understand that this case is frustrating, and I also know this is incredibly hard to be away from Astrid on such an important day, but we are trying as fast as we can to get this over with so we can get back home” he says and that helps a lot.

When we get back to the station, Emily, Morgan, Aaron and I agree that Edward is our guy, but without substantial proof we can't do anything yet. Then it hits me, sometimes Reid and I can be the dumbest smartest person you'll ever meet. “Oh my God, why didn't it dawn on us, Reid, we could get a warrant for his apartment” I say sitting up in my chair and Reid's face is priceless, “your right” he says and I almost laugh at how it slipped us. “Alright I'll get it sorted” Aaron says before walking out of the room.
After about 4 hours, making it 5pm. We got the warrant. When we get to his apartment he's frantic, and I'm not really surprised. We end up finding everything that we thought he used to murder those men including their clothes. We arrested him. Back at the police station Morgan and Rossi integrate him.

After about 4 hours making it, 10:00 pm they get a confession and we get to go home, thank God. I want to get back to Astrid as fast as I can. It's been a few days from Christmas making it the 27th. By the time we get everything done and on the jet it's 12 am. I slump into my seat and let out a deep sigh. We all end up falling asleep.
