"Colin...why are you doing this"

"I wasn't finished with you, Here I was getting home after my three days conference thinking that I was coming home to a obediant fiancé, but to my surpise I walked into my house with cops waiting for me" he let out.

"I figured it was Octavia that got to you before I got back, that bitch never knew how to mind her own buisness. but at the end she got what she deserved"

"Your the one that hired Mallory, to kill those girls" Celeste spat out. Colin stood up and turned towards Celeste again.

"Morgan take Prentiss and go talk to the florist" he let out as he started walking out of the conference room.

"Garcia keep working on finding his location, Dave with me" he said. Rossi fallowed his friend without saying a word. Both of them walked in Hotch's office, Dave closed the door and watched as Aaron started pacing the office.

"he's been watching us" Aaron said almost in a whisper, Dave looked at him.

"What do you mean?" Aaron stopped and looked at Dave for a moment, not quiet sure if he should be having this conversation with him or not.

"Cortez has been watching me and Celeste, and very closely I would say" Dave raised an eyebrow at his friend.

"How do you know?" Aaron looked at Dave, but then broke eye contact.
