"How many existentialists does it take to screw a lightbulb?" Spencer asked with a small laugh. Once again the room was silent. You faintly heard Agent Rossi mutter, "Don't." "2. One to change the light bulb and one to observe how it symbolizes an incandescent beacon of subjectivity in a netherworld of cosmic nothingness," he said. The room was silent still, until you laughed. His eyes looked up at yours in confusion. "Wouldn't they sit in the dark and hope that the bulb decided to light again? An existentialist would never change the bulb. He would allow the darkness to exist," you questioned. - #1 #spencerreid #1 #mgg #1 emilyprentiss

"You have my permission not to love me. For I'm a cathedral of deadbolts, and I would rather burn myself down than change the locks. And for that, we will ruin each other, my love." Broken souls mend together unlike any others. They understand each other on a deeper level, for they share the same knowledge and learned the same lesson before they could grasp the beauty the world had to offer. But when the souls are fire and water they can only damage each other as a sign of love. So when Hotch and Y/n met both driven, broken, stubborn, shielded, and scared from previous destruction (they will never fully share) they expected to clash. But what neither of them seemed to grasp was how they slipped into a brisk form of intimacy. How they formed an attachment, on an emotional level. But how could they possibly survive the cruel world as Hotch struggles to surrender to his personal life after his recent divorce? Fighting to be the level-headed emotionless boss everyone viewed him as. How does y/n push past the mindset of never needing anyone but herself, convincing herself the fairy tales that she never believed in due to her upbringing could be right in front of her in the form of a man who brung out a new side to her? Will they be able to beat the odds, and overcome their demons, or will the ghost of their past silence them till all they become is a distant memory to one another?

The first time Hotch sees you - young, brazen and violent - it's at an old trailer and he's there with Gideon to question you about your father's whereabouts. Someone who the BAU have pegged as their unsub. The second time he sees you - they're back to question the family of an unsub's victim. And you're different: elegant, eloquent and all sharp edges now well-rounded and polished. And married to a billionaire. The third time it's inside the interrogation room, after they find the corpse of a second man looking eerily similar to your missing husband. --- (Elevator pitch: reader may be a serial killer and Hotch is certain you murdered your husband. Chaos and situationships occurr) ---- (this is a slow build - yes they yearn! enemies to fuck buddies to enemies to lovers! - and implied sexual content) so much murder! so much yearning! #147 in enemies to lovers 😌😌 I do not own Criminal minds, the characters and the story!*

In a world where neither Adeline Beckett or her boss Aaron Hotchner thought they deserved happiness, they accidentally stumble across it. But they're sworn to Secrecy.

Professor Hotchner's criminal law class has a reputation. Professor Hotchner has a reputation. On your first day, you manage to draw his anger. He seems to hate you. What happens behind closed doors... that's a different story.

"And what if I don't?" You ask defiantly. He comes up closer to you at that remark, close enough so you're the only one that could hear him. Close enough that he hovers over you, pressing your back against the wall. "Then, I'd pull you into the bathroom and make sure you wouldn't be able to sit for the rest of the case." His words are low, bringing out the deeper rumble to his voice. It sends shivers down your spine. "Understand?" "Yes," you scoff. "Yes, what?" "Yes, sir." ______________ Your relationship with your boss has always been complicated, to say the least. You've seen each other at your highest and lowest. You're both incredibly stubborn and unwilling to relinquish control. Yet, you still find him slightly cocky and arrogant. You find yourself defying him at every available turn on cases in an attempt to prove yourself. In turn, he finds you a bit bothersome. But what happens when over time, these complicated feelings fade into something even more complicated. Something that feels less like annoyance and more like adoration. Something that forces you both to face your greatest fear: losing control.
