    Summary

    ”You met him at work…” She echoes with a glimmer of intuition in her eye, “What department?”

    Spencer chews on the inside of his lip, meeting her eye with a sigh of defeat, “The Behavioral Analysis Unit.”

    Emily opens and shuts her mouth a few times, each sentence she starts aborted before it even begins. She shakes her head with her eyes closed like it will rewind the conversation.

    ”Spencer Reid,” she scolds, pinching the bridge of her nose, “Are you telling me that not only have you been secretly dating our boss, but you are also pregnant with his baby?”

    Summary

    “I can’t take that pain away,” Aaron murmurs apologetically, squeezing Spencer’s hand in his own like he can forcibly inject some life back into the hollow shell sitting in front of him. 

    Spencer’s hand floats up to Aaron’s bicep, toying with the fabric of his long sleeve absently as Aaron keeps hold of his other hand.

    “I know” he starts, a distance in his voice that makes Aaron uneasy, like Spencer’s not really speaking to him, “but, maybe…”

    Spencer’s eyes flutter before he looks up at Aaron, irises dark enough in the low light to hide his needle point pupils. 

    His hand on Aaron’s bicep slowly trails up toward his shoulder.

    “Maybe, just for tonight… you could take my mind off it?”

    AKA Spencer's been slowly cracking for a month. It's only a matter of time until someone else notices.

    Summary

    Spencer carries his exhaustion like Atlas carries the globe, dragging himself to Aaron’s side when a case has taken a toll on him, never quite initiating but looking at Aaron with those same wide eyes that tell him exactly what Spencer wants, what he needs.

    Aaron meets him with open arms every time, pulling him closer to tuck him into the space where Aaron’s neck and shoulder meet, a hand on the back of his skull to keep him there so Spencer doesn’t have to worry about when he’s supposed to pull away, how long he’s allowed to indulge. It’s as rewarding for Aaron as it seems to be for Spencer.

    Over the months of this slow, developing change in their dynamic, Aaron is finding that he wants nothing more than to give Spencer what he needs.

    AKA Spencer has always been touch averse. Aaron is realizing he may be an exception to the rule.

    Summary

    “Getting bored?” Hotch’s voice pulls him out of his rumination yet again, reeling him in and bringing his attention back to the very problem at hand.

    Spencer shakes his head and sighs, glancing back at JJ and Rossi’s darts game before giving Hotch a halfhearted smile, more of a pursing of his lips than anything.

    “To be honest I’ve been bored since the second I realized that they’re going to keep doing this for the rest of the night.”

    Rossi harasses JJ to just take her shot already and Hotch drops his chin with a smile. After a moment he glances over again through dark eyelashes curtaining darker eyes, thoughtfully studying Spencer before a sly grin creeps across his dimpled cheeks, one thick eyebrow raising in a way Spencer can only describe as mischievous.

    He nods to the still unoccupied pool table.

    “You wanna play?”

    AKA after being served divorce papers in front of his whole team, no one is expecting Hotch to honor his agreement to come out for drinks with them. He shows up anyway.

    Summary

    The state of being of a forty-five year-old widower whose past three days were spent mostly (and actively) in bed with the love he’d almost lost? 'Hedonistic' isn’t the wrong word at all.
