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!*
