As an FBI agent in the Dallas field office, your unit calls for collaboration with the BAU. Years later, a decision is made for you, catapulting you suddenly into that same team - this time as a trainee.

 Amongst the flurry of cases, new teammates, and the struggle to keep up with the load of work, you start to carve out a new life. And if the man who'd grabbed your attention back then, SSA Aaron Hotchner, happens to slowly become your friend - you welcome it with open arms. Developing feelings for him - less so.

This is a slow burn, and title from Maggie Rogers' song :)

(Sorry I don't know how to write something that is not about yearning or pining)

BLAKE | a. hotchner by couchpotaato

"It's been awhile," I looked at him with a small smile. "What brings you back here? You're not here because you missed me, are you?" I raised my eyebrows and gave him a sly smirk. He didn't answer, clearly he wasn't in the mood to play. "Don't be shy, Agent, I missed you too," I tilted my head to the right, allowing the corners of my mouth to move upwards. He raised one eyebrow, still locked in his silence, still staring at me. I had had enough of his cold demeanor, he was the one who came to me. "Why are you here, Hotchner?" I asked. "It better not be because you have more questions about my father, because I'm not answering any more of those." I moved my head an inch forward, putting my entangled hands on the table, looking at him intently, making sure he understood. "I want you to work for me," the handsome man in the suit finally spoke. - This is a Criminal Minds story. I do not own Criminal Minds.

Wasteland (Hotch X Reader) // ✔ by angelfxll

A case in New York brings you back to confront and forces you to work alongside a childhood friend - Aaron Hotchner. A long time ago, your life was alongside the Hotchners.

It only got worse as the years went by. However, encouraged by your respective superiors to collaborate, you try to learn ways to work together amicably, without bringing out the painful past. The more you get to know this new version of Hotch, the more feelings arise: new and old ones are sparked to life. All while reminiscing on old memories. Maybe, what you're both doomed to become is not dissimilar to the remaining wasteland of the bombs you're investigating.

Oh, How I Love You by followinchorus

"Uh, no you haven't I started 6 years ago here at the BAU, I have an eidetic memory, 187 IQ, and social anxiety." I laughed at his little joke.

But on the first day on the job, she meets a certain light brown haired, brown eyed genius like her. The moment their eyes come together, she knew but he didn't. She was in love.

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!*

The Transfer by JOCYYCREATION

"I know our history Agent Hotchner, and it's been more than a decade we last saw each other. Judging from the photo on your desk, you have moved on, though you both are unhappy in your marriage, especially your wife." "The smile on her face, it was forced, just for this photo. Her eyes were dark. She was staring into blank space. But there's a twitch in the corner of her eyes, she was either angry or trying to take control of her emotion." Prentiss said while holding the photo. "Stop," Hotchner said. "May I say a last word, Sir?" "Yes, you may." "The only person that looks happy in this photo is your son. Please do anything you can to shield him from the darkness of this world." Prentiss said, with a grim expression. --CM-- Emily Prentiss's journey from Doyle's mission to her transfer to the BAU in Quantico. Slight Hotchniss. Follows closely to Criminal Minds original but with a slight twist and own plot-part of the AU: Indestructible. Can be read on its own. Disclaimer: I do not own Criminal Minds.

Rom-com Gone Wrong (Hotch x Reader)// ✔ by angelfxll

A case goes wrong when feds are called to assist your investigation, and it's mostly because of you. Instead of avoiding the matter like you usually do, you send an apology email to the calm, collected, ever-serious unit chief, SSA Aaron Hotchner, in hopes you can better understand your mistakes - and how NOT to repeat them. What you don't realize is that sends everything into a wholly different direction, and you realize it too late. A chain of emails starts up between him and the actual person whose email you had been logged on: your fellow, male detective, who you now have to pretend to be. (Elevator pitch: you ask for help from hotch, not knowing you're still signed in from your male coworker's email. You keep up the ruse and neither of u knows what u signed up for) Slowburn! Friends to lovers! And quite a lot of emailin/texting! (Bonus: huge misunderstanding!) IMAGE source: horde-lord on tumblr I do not own Criminal Minds, the characters or the story!*

Something Unexpected (Aaron Hotchner x femReader) by lhhur2

When you walk into your boss's office only to find that you have already made your first impression and not in the way you wanted, however, he is unlikely to forget it. How long can you keep it professional? Or will something happen that cause feelings to explode into the open? How long can it be kept a secret? I do not own any criminal minds characters, however, I do own the characters I create. This story has been discontinued :( This is my first story on Wattpad so I'm not sure how good it'll be. Also, I will note that I am Australian so if some words are spelt differently, that is why. Y/N is from Australia so when it is her POV then words will be written the Australian way, but in Hotch's POV then words will be written the American way. I will also mention that I have put the mature warning on, however, there isn't going to be a whole lot of smut.
