[Criminal Minds] years before love

"Risk?" Hotch was taken aback, "Agent Rossi is not..."

"No. It has nothing to do with D□□id itself. It is a very dangerous behavior to have a relationship with your colleagues or even your boss, I believe you are very clear." Gideon chuckled and pointed out helplessly, "Aaron, you are young , handsome, smart, even considering gender, I believe there is no shortage of suitors, even if you don't want to get yourself into a relationship that needs to be serious, if all you need to solve is physical needs, you have too much more than D□□idRossi Better choice."

"What the hell are you trying to say, Gideon." Hotch frowned.

"You're with him for a psychological need, not a physical one." Gideon stood up and walked around his desk to stand beside him, emphasizing it before Hotch interrupted him, "This isn't a discussion, Aaron, I'm pointing you to the facts. It's not just sex."

"...you don't understand me and our relationship." Hotch flinched back, swallowing.

"Compared to D□□id, I really don't know you well, but don't question my profile." Gideon forced him to face himself.

Hotch retorted reluctantly, "You also said that we all make mistakes—"

Gideon smiled, "You're rarely out of order in front of me, so I figured, not this time."

"Don't judge me by your situation." Hotch clutched the hem of his clothes, trying to avoid his eyes.

Gideon's smile disappeared immediately, and he quickly frowned, "I think D□□id should have clarified that my sleepover at his house was just an accident, and nothing happened to us. Although our relationship is not as bad as you think , but you are like..."

"I was talking years ago," Hotch interrupted, realizing right away that he had said something wrong, but it was too late to take it back.

Gideon stared at him, and after a moment of silence, returned to his chair and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I never knew D□□id could be so honest, so did he tell you we've been separated for a long time?"

"I have eyes."

Gideon sighed, sat up straight and stared at him seriously, "Then let me tell you, we did have a good time, and we haven't been able to really let go and withdraw in all these years. But from D □□id started trying to protect you from me unnecessarily, and all possibilities between me and him are terminated. Judging from the current situation, you will not team up with him temporarily starting tomorrow, and follow me in the next case. But forget Without that boring rule, I won't approve it."

Hotch froze for a while, then slowly lowered his head, "Thank you, Jason."

"I'm glad you're finally considering me as a friend after so long." Seeing a look of embarrassment flash across Hotch's face, Gideon smiled, reached out and took the few pieces of paper on the table and tore them in half, "Okay , now I need to talk to D□□id - I guess you didn't discuss it with him before submitting your application."

"It's my own decision." Hotch wanted to stop his hand reaching for the phone in a rare, almost flustered way.

Gideon paused, still resting his hand on the microphone unmoved, "Aaron, he is responsible for the mentee's decision. And I'm sure you won't want to tell him what I just decided."

Hotch hesitated for a while, and finally relaxed slowly, "Yes."

Gideon looked at him, smiled and blinked suddenly, "Since you suddenly started to face this problem after so long, I guess he probably confessed to you-it took so long even beyond my expectation, although I It is still not recommended that you get too deep into this, but don’t doubt his sincerity—so, since you have no intention of leaving him, did you suddenly make such a decision and finally plan to fall in love with him? In addition, I also want to remind you, Possessiveness is the worst part of being in love, keep your own senseless suspicions in check."

Hotch pursed his lips and glanced at him without answering.

"I'll tell him you want a present." Gideon lowered his voice.

"I didn't." Hotch was a little annoyed at his abnormality, and unconsciously raised his voice.

"I just wanted to say, relax. It's... at least not a bad thing." Gideon smiled again, almost benevolently.

"I'm going to work." Hotch couldn't bear it anymore and pushed the table away.

Gideon watched him go out, sighed slightly while maintaining a smile, and dialed Rossi's phone.
