The Colours in My Life | HOTCHNISS fanfiction

The Missus

Emily arrived 15 minutes after Derek and Penelope did. She was still considered new to the city, so she spent some time looking around the club before entering.

"You been here long?" Emily recognised Hotch's voice.

The amount of times she's been called into his office (on her first day) is insane. Emily now knows his voice by heart.

"No not long at all! Just looking around." Emily chuckled and couldn't help to notice the woman following him.

"Hi! You must be the new recruit. I'm Haley!" She smiled, extending an arm to Prentiss.

"Hi! Nice to meet you." Emily took it.

"She's my wife." He added, as if it wasn't already obvious.

"She's a profiler in the BAU, Aaron. I think she knows." Haley chuckled.

Haley linked arm with Aaron and the three made their way inside.

"Rossi! JJ! Reid! When did you come in?" Emily yelled.

The music was loud.

"5 minutes ago?" Reid yelled back. "JJ's already two drinks in, Rossi one." He kept count.

"Are you their chaperone?"

"Yes." Reid smiled.

"You can drink! Go ahead! I can take you home." Emily said.

"Oh- alright!" Reid made his way to the bar.

Hotch then snuck up to Prentiss, "Prentiss that's alright, I can keep watch. You go drink. It's the least I can do after today."

Derek and Garcia was on the dance floor, as expected. JJ was impressing men by throwing perfect darts. Rossi was at the table along with the married couple. Emily bought a glass of tequila and joined the three.

"So Emily, how's the BAU treating you?" Haley asked.

"She means have I been nice to you?" Aaron smiled.

It was the first time ever she's seen him smile. The whole day his face was like glued - she didn't think he had any other facial expressions.

"They've been really welcoming!" Emily didn't want to bring up the situation that happened earlier. "Excuse me, I'm going to join Morgan and Garcia."

"You might want to find another partner! They look a bit busy!" Rossi yelled, making Emily turn back and smile.

It didn't take much time nor effort for Emily to find a partner.

"Look at her! She's got a guy already." Garcia came over to chat with JJ.

"Well what can you do? A guy sees a pretty lady at a bar, he comes over, then you know.." JJ smiled, throwing another perfect dart. "YES! Pay up boys.." She talks to the random men she's surrounded with.

Everyone was now on one table, chatting, drinking, and overall having a great time.

"Hey guys!" Emily made her way over, dragging a guy in a suit along with her. "This is Brad.. a real FBI agent!" She sounded to happy.

"Hey!" Brad waved to the group.

"So Brad.. what's it like in Quantico?" Garcia asked, taking a sip from her drink.

Aaron's face seemed to be amused as well.

"Oh you know it's a tough job.. but I have to protect the city." Brad smirks.

"Do you have to carry a gun and a badge all the time?" Aaron asked.

"Affirmative." Brad avoided eye contact, he seems to be intimidated by Hotch.
