A/N: This is set 20 years after Foyet's attack except Hotch died. Hotch and Reid had been a couple. No flames please.

In Death We Meet Again

It had been twenty years since the attack. George Foyet had murdered SSA Aaron Hotchner, the love of Dr Spencer Reid's life. Many things had changed in those 20 years. Derek Morgan had finally made Garcia Penelope Garcia Morgan. They had two children: Eli and Janie. Rossi and JJ got married, and had a daughter Violetta Giovanna Rossi, who eventually married Jack Hotchner. And Emily eventually fell in love with a senator and settled down.

All of them had lives outside the Bureau. All of them moved on. All except Reid. Reid couldn't bring himself to move on. To move on was to leave Hotch behind, and Reid wouldn't do that.

20 years had passed and Reid was still in the field. Some years previously his mother died, and so he felt he had nothing to live for. They were chasing the New England Bomber, a bomber who planted homes nearby houses in lawns, when they cornered him. He pulled a gun out of his overalls and started shooting. 47 year old Reid wasn't quick enough. He fell, a bullet in his neck. He closed his eyes for the last time in his mortal life.

He opened his eyes. He was lying on a floor, a carpet on many blues and greens and purples combined. He looked up. The beautiful face of the man he loved for so long was looking down at him.
"Hotch..." he breathed.
"Reid..."

They were together forever.
