78. CelebritiesA Chapter by halflivesYAY FOR AUDREY/BRODY.*In Haven, Maine*
*Hotch, Reid and I are sitting nonchalantly in a restaurant. We ordered cheesecake for the three of them, because of my strange obsession with cheesecake, and we’re looking around, hopefully not being noticed*
Me: So what was this “unusual fight” involving, anyway?
Hotchner: According to JJ, some guy with black hair was delivering a package, and some other guy stopped him and wanted the package. The guy with the black hair refused to give it to him because he wasn’t the one that he was delivering to, and the other guy got angry. He, um, said that the other guy turned into a…
Me: A what?
Hotchner: …a wolf.
Reid: A WHAT.
Hotchner: this is what Will told JJ. She was embarrassed about telling it too, but it isn’t like Will to lie.
Reid: So the guy turned into a WOLF?
Me: I said the people in this town had powers.
Reid: But you and Will are suggesting… werewolves.
Me: If I remember correctly, the people can’t control their powers. Mostly.
Hotchner: Mostly?
Me: It’s hard to tell. Sometimes people can control their powers, and they use it for personal gain. Or they’re servile to people.
Person Behind Me: You know about the Troubles?
*We turn around to see a blonde lady and a scruffy man standing behind us. They’re looking quite interested in our conversation, eavesdropping no doubt*
Me: Didn’t your mother ever tell you that eavesdropping is a nasty habit?
Blonde: I had no mother to tell me. I was an orphan.
Me: Oh. Oh! *recognizes her* Audrey Parker. *stands, holding out my hand*
Audrey: Yup, how’d you know?
Me: Oh, I, um, know these things.
Hotchner: Hey, Olivia, don’t you think we should get--
Me: *interrupts* Ooh, Chris Brody! I thought you left for London?
Chris: I, um, refused the job because of Audrey. Wait, why am I telling you this?
Me: It’s the face. People just blurt out their plans when I’m around.
Hotchner: *fake laugh* O-K, Liv, time to go.
Me: It was nice meeting you! *as Reid and Hotch practically push me out the door*
Me: *when we’re outside* What was that for?!
Reid: You’re treating them like celebrities!
Me: Well, they kind of are.
Hotchner: You didn’t do this to us. *pouts*
Me: OF COURSE I DID. I spazzes out.
Hotchner: You ALWAYS spaz out.
Me: Okay, that’s true…
Reid: So now Agent Parker has seen us, so she can report back to the Chief.
Me: But something’s wrong. If I remember correctly, Chris Brody left to pursue some deal or something in London. Audrey told him to go. He’s supposed to have left by now.
Reid: So the show changed from real life.
Hotchner: I, um, divorced *winces* Haley *winces* before you said the show me divorced her.
Me: True, true.
Reid: So how does this Brody guy play into this.
Hotchner: Could he be our wolfie?
Me: Eh, no. He already has a Trouble, which I now remember what they’re called.
Reid: What is it?
Me: Everyone likes him… Oh s**t, THAT’S why I was treating him like a celebrity.
Hotchner: How come it didn’t effect us?
Me: You weren’t looking directly at him.
Reid: Yeah, Hotch, you were looking directly at Liv.
Hotchner: Not true!
Me: Yeah, Hotchy, it’s true, isn’t it?
Hotchner: …I’m pleading the fifth.
Me: NOOOT POSSSSIBLE. *mauls him*
Reid: *once I’m done hugging him* Again, now that Agent Parker knows we’re here, she’s going to report back to the Chief. We better beat it now, or something will happen.
Me: Like that?
Reid: Like, I don’t know, losing our job?
Me: Oh well.
Reid: OH WELL?!
Me: …I’m just kidding.
Hotchner: There’s no way in hell we’re losing our jobs.
Me: THEN LET’S GET GOING.
Reid: We’re leaving?
Me: NO, SILLY. We’re going to the docks.
Hotchner: We can risk that?
Reid: *simultaneously* Can we do that?
Me: Silly boys. You guys are so cute. *pauses* NEVER MIND. THERE’S NO HOTCH/REID ALLOWED. THAT’S GROSS.
Reid and Hotch: EW NO.
Me: Let’s go, boys! *heads towards the docks*
Reid: …Aren’t you supposed to be the Unit Chief?
Hotchner: I am, why?
Reid: …You’re just going to let her push us around like that?
Hotchner: …Yeah, I am.
Reid: Yeah, you are. *they both follow me* © 2011 halflivesAuthor's Note
