Little White Lie- Hotch & Emily
It had been simple back then, to lie to him. They were just starting out. She hadn't slept in his arms or been out on dates with him back then, but now everything was different she loved him so much and that little white lie was now a massive secret that was killing her. One second was all took for her to say she wasn't pregnant, and he believed her. Why would he not? She had gone home that night and taken the test that was two months ago, she had been keeping this from him for 2 months, that was 8 weeks of their relationship that had been built on a house of cards and she knew that it was going to fall apart soon enough. When he learned about their unborn child.
Every morning she'd be as quiet as possible when she had morning sickness, she had been trying desperately not to be so moody praying he didn't notice but that wouldn't matter because soon she'd start showing and she didn't know what to do. She was too scared to have the baby but then again could not ever kill it. They were on a case at the moment and they were flying back to Quantico this morning most of which she had spent being sick, her throat felt raw and she had tears streaming down her cheeks she didn't know how much longer she'd survive this. Emily hadn't even had a scan or check up, and all the stress of keeping this to herself wasn't going to bode well for the growing baby.
Getting to her feet she put on slightly darker foundation to get rid of the paleness she scrubbed at her teeth and threw her hair into a neat conservative ponytail. She looked normal and fixing a fake smile on her face she continued to pack her belongings waiting for the inevitable knock on the door, that would be Aaron. Coming to tell her good morning and help her carry her stuff. He was too good for her, he deserved so much better and when the truth came out he was going to hate her. Wiping under her eyes she put her head in her hands mumbling "What am I going to do?" against her palms.
