We Could Leave The Christmas Lights Up Til January by usmsgutterson
Fandoms: Criminal Minds (US TV)
08 Jan 2025

Summary
A through-the-years style fic, each chapter set around and during the Christmas season. In it, Reid and the reader go from coworkers, to friends, to lovers, and then to marriage.
An excerpt below because I couldn't resist:
"You and Reid," Hotch says accusatorily as you watch Reid walk to the SUV with Morgan. "Whats going on?"
"Nothing," you respond, tearing your gaze from Reid to your mentor. "Nothing at all."
"Last time I heard you say that, you were standing next to Garcia when she found the money for tablets for the team."
You grin. "It's nothing," you repeat, ignoring the skepticism and the furrow in Hotchs brow.

Summary
"The things that I saw in an active combat zone make it easy to be cynical, to be pessimistic and nihilistic and all "what even is the point" about everything," Father Tim turns Raylans hand again so that his knuckles are what points out, grimaces as he puts the used gauze and tape to the side. "Being optimistic, being kindhearted, being good, are the harder choices. I make the harder choices everyday, and I prove that I can do it everyday."
