AO3 Link
Part One: Mayhem - Reader pov | 15k
After Aaron is hurt during a terrorism case in New York City, reader is faced with the undeniable truth that she is falling in love with her boss. While ensuring that he doesn't lose his hearing, she nurses him back to health despite her coworkers' knowing looks and comments. Navigating through her crush, knowing he's still in love with his ex-wife is going to be rough.
Part Two: Minimal Loss - Hotch pov | 10k
Away on a case with Reid, he and our dear reader are held hostage by Libertarian Cult Leader, Benjamin Cyrus. It's now Aaron's turn to try and keep his cool while Leading the Hostage Recovery and Support mission at the same time he's realizing he's fallen in love with his subordinate...
Part Three: Omnivore - Reader pov | 8.1k
Reader thought that Aaron was depressed post-divorce and following the death of Kate Joyner... nothing compares to how he is dealing with the mass amounts of guilt surrounding The Boston Reaper.
Part Four: Roadkill - Hotch pov | 14.9k
Once again, Aaron puts himself in harm's way. Once again, reader scolds him for it. Bickering like an old married couple in front of the whole team, it becomes glaringly obvious that they're more than just coworkers now.
Part Five: Living Children - Reader pov
After coming home from Canada, they head to their separate apartments for a night of rest before their next case... only that case comes 4 hours later and Aaron isn't answering his phone.
Part Six: I Know Places - Hotch pov
Worried for Aaron's safety as he heals, she takes him to the one place she knows no one can find them. The Bed and Breakfast in West Virginia.
Part Seven: Hunters, Foxes - Reader pov
With his ex-wife and child in Witness Protection, Aaron worries that Reader is also on Foyets hitlist. She, on the other hand, isn't worried. She would kill for him if need be... in fact, she does.
Part Eight: 100 - Hotch pov

okay, hear me out (I know, I know that I just sprung my best friend!Coryo x reader on you and I am going to write that, I promise, I’m nearly halfway through part one btw ✌🏻); but
An angsty and smutty imagine about University!Coriolanus x president’s daughter!reader inspired by Taylor’s I Know Places - a fake relationship where both of them start to develop real feelings for each other, though both of them are too scared to make the first step …
would anyone want to read that?? please let me know!! 🤍
(also, I don’t know why I’m literally always so inspired by Taylor’s songs, but I’m currently at a beach bar in Spain and they played through the entirety of 1989 TV and something just clicked when I Know Places come on …)
