Emily Prentiss and Aaron Hotchner are best friends. They have been really close for a long time, always being there for each other. Their close friendship already scared away many potential partners for each of them, but they always chose their friendship over a relationship to someone else. But little do they know that not only amicable feelings exist between them. (Hotch is divorced from Haley, she is alive and Jack appers as well)

A heartwarming and emotional story set when Aaron and Emily are between the ages of 14-20 As they go through the motions of life Emily and Aaron help each other through tough times. Always knowing that they have each other to fall back on makes difficult things just a pinch easier as times get tough. Can be a bit heavy. ⚠️ I have absolutely nothing against Emily's decision when it came to the situation in Italy, the decision she made was most likely the smartest one for the given scenario but I wanted to explore an alternative reality in which she did indeed have the baby.⚠️ CW//: non-descriptive abuse, teen pregnancy, alcoholism, neglect, cursing.
