You're Not Alone
Halloween
Emily found herself in the bullpen one day after work when JJ came in to make an announcement. She knew Henry and Sophie had been nervous about going out on their first trick-or-treating as JJ had told her. JJ and Will had decided to wait until Sophie was old enough to take their kids trick-or-treating. She was almost four years old now and her brother seven years old.
Emily was sat on her old desk which was currently occupied by her sister. Blake had taken another desk when she joined the team. She had been checking in on her friends and up on her baby sister.
"Everyone as you know Henry and Sophie were nervous about going out trick-or-treating but..." she said holding her hands together. "They're going to go out anyway."
"Great. What changed their minds?" Blake and Emily asked together then smiled at each other while Hotch came up behind his fiancée and placed his hand on her shoulder. He'd just finished his last file of the day and was prepared to prepare their kids for trick-or-treating. It was the twins' first time too.
"The BAU did. I saw that they could try and work out which monsters were real and which were fake...so they've decided to dress up as their favourite profiler."
Penelope then walked in with both children and they all smiled wide grins. It was just too cute! Henry was dressed up as Spencer along with the satchel while Sophie was dressed up as her mother. Everyone smiled at his godfather as he smiled at Henry in pride.
"Tell them what we told you to say," Penelope whispered to Henry.
He leant his head onto his shoulder and answered shyly, "E = MC²." They all oohed and aahed after that. They didn't just do this job for their own kids but each others. They were one big family.
"The monsters don't stand a chance," Blake smiled as Spencer bent down to attach his FBI credentials onto Henry's sweater vest.
"Now you're official," he smiled at his godson then up at Katie who smiled back.
He'd make a great father she thought. She'd love to mother his kids but she was too shy to even make the first move. What if Spencer didn't love her back? She wouldn't be able to handle that. She guessed she'd loved him since the first time they met at her nieces' first birthday party and it had just built up since she moved to Virginia. Emily had been pushing her to get together with him and she knew her brother-in-law had been doing so with Spencer but what if it didn't work out. She couldn't lose him; she loved him far too much. He was the first outside her family to make her feel like a social pariah for spouting off statistics.
Little did she know Spencer felt the same way? He thought she was beautiful and so intelligent. He was happiest with her but he didn't have much experience asking girls out. He'd only ever had two girls in his life and neither of them had he asked out. They'd both been victims and it hadn't worked out. He was only really good with the people he knew. What if he wasn't worth Katie and she was nineteen while he was thirty-two? What if she didn't love him back? He couldn't lose her; he just loved her way too much. Hotch was trying to push them together but he was too shy to make the first move. Hotch had even been pairing them up to try and encourage them to become a couple. As they had so much in common Hotch had made Spencer her supervisor.
Aaron and Emily then headed out with JJ and her children to find Will waiting outside. They parted ways and Aaron and Emily got home to take their own kids out trick-or-treating. The twins would be five next week.
They were already in their costumes. Jack had his usual Hotch costume on while the girls were dressed in little suits like their mother wore for work which touched her and brought tears to her eyes. It showed so much how they idolised her and she felt unworthy.
If any parent was worthy of being idolised it was her fiancé. He had raised them single-handedly while his heart was broken and had done everything in his power to protect them from her mistakes. The mistakes of her past that had greatly affected her family.
Declan was dressed in a Victorian costume. His blonde hair was brushed back.
"Dorian Gray?" Emily asked.
"Exactly," Declan beamed.
She was proud of him as he was a well-read scholar even if he was interested in being a chef at his uncle's restaurant. Every Saturday he'd cook them a dinner with his parents' supervision. He always tried a new dish in the hope to build up his repertoire. He really wanted to be a skilled chef. Though he wanted to do his best at school since meeting Dave and Sean cooking had been his passion. He also spent a lot of time reading though while they encouraged him to socialise as they didn't want their son to be a recluse.
"Can we go now?" Allie asked excitedly.
"Just let daddy and I get out of our suits and leave our credentials then we'll go ok," Emily answered ruffling her hair.
"But I want to go now," she whined.
"We'll only take a minute, promise," Aaron replied kissing her hair.
"Ok daddy," she smiled at him. She was such a daddy's girl that Aaron was the only one who could make her behave. No matter how hard Emily tried her daughter would only listen to her father. Usually she was well-behaved it was only when she got excited that she needed her father's calming hand.
Soon enough they had changed out of their suits and were ready to take their children trick-or-treating. They headed out to take their kids trick-or-treating and went round the neighbourhood. She knew Aaron was carrying his gun in his ankle holster just in case. He would always carry his gun to protect his children. All these years on the job had taught him to be prepared.
Luckily they came home with an equal amount of candy and they got to eat some before bed. They couldn't eat all of it otherwise they'd be staying up all night. Alexia hadn't wanted to leave some of her candy but Aaron got her too.
