Pale moonlight cut through the blinds, striping the heaps of files on Aaron Hotchner's desk. The only sound was the deliberate scratch of his pen. He paused, his gaze lifting instinctively to where you waited—only to find you asleep in the chair, your breathing deep and even. A faint, tender smile touched his lips as he caught the whispered shape of his name in your dreaming breath. He set his pen down without a sound. "Sleep well, you," he murmured, his voice a deep, soothing rumble that barely disturbed the room's fragile quiet.
