When
e'er I gazed upon that face
Of one who was scarce but a child
Yet
even then could drive me wild
I'll never know the how's and
why's
I lost my heart to Hazel Eyes
-Jim Sharman
Most people who met Dr Spencer Reid pointed out his 'wierdness', asking if he was a genius, disbelieveing his ability to read 20 000 words per minute and his IQ of 187. Some people giggled at the way he dressed or groaned at him talking statistics... But Special agent Derek Morgan saw something else in him.
Derek Morgan saw a tall, beautiful man with gorgeous features and wonderful deep hazel eyes. He loved to ruffle the long hair, and he found his style charming and appreciated a useful brain, something too many people did not have.
That little smirk Spencer sometimes put on gave Derek the butterflies, and even though many of the subjects in Spencer's books weren't that interesting, Derek loved hearing him read it out loud to him, and slowly fall to sleep hearing his voice.
Spencer Reid saw what everyone saw in Derek Morgan. A handsome, strong man with a smile that could melt anybody's heart, but he could also see things no one else could see, because Derek would only let him see it. Staring into Derek's eyes for many minutes was like dreaming a warm dream, filling him up with a glowing light, and the feeling of being loved. Spencer knew that no one loved him the way Derek did. No one understood him, cared for him, wanted to be close to him, like Derek did.
That is what completes them. That moment they gaze into eachother's eyes they both know, and no one else does. For the first time, Spencer felt safe, and did not tense when he was touched.
"Reid,
can I talk to you for a sec?" Morgan asked, as Reid looked through
the latest file. Reid looked up at him, wanting to smile and run up
to him, just like in a movie, but he knew he couldn't. He put the
file down and stood up.
"Sure" he said, and followed Morgan
down the hall and into... the copy machine room?
Morgan
pulled him inside and closed the door, pushing Reid up against the
wall, smirking.
"Derek we can't... what if they-"
"Shh..."
Morgan
pressed his finger softly on Reid's lips, before he kissed them.
Reid relaxed and gave in, responding to the kiss. He couldn't help
but smile, and he pushed Derek back a bit, looking into his
eyes.
"What's up with you today?" he asked and his smile
turned into a smirk. Morgan smiled.
"I just love you very much,
pretty boy" he whispered. Reid chuckled.
"I love you too...
but I'm not going to give you a nickname" Reid said. Morgan
shrugged.
"Last night you called me b-"
Reid
covered Morgan's mouth with his hand, giggling.
"Shh, stop it"
Morgan moved his hand away and gave his lips a quick kiss, before he pulled him back out.
"We have work to do" Morgan said.
"I
know, I was actually the one working, mister" Reid said. Morgan
stopped and looked at him.
"I like the sound of 'mister',
prettyboy" Morgan said and winked. Reid frowned playfully, and they
walked back into the office, pretending they had been having a very
important talk about the case...
That was pretty much how they dealt with their relationship during the days. The other members didn't know about them, and they wanted it to stay like that. They could both lose their job. It wasn't always easy, but it was necessary.
They
had a case in LA, where three pregnant women had been reported
missing withing two days. The team were on their way by jet, looking
through the files and discussing.
"Could the UnSub
be doing it for the babies? To sell them maybe?" JJ suggested.
Hotch
shook his head.
"All the women have entered the ninth month of
pregnancy, he could have easily removed the babies if he wanted to"
he said. Reid looked at them.
"It's more common women do this,
often someone who is unable to have children or who lost one. There's
been many cases where women have actually killed the mothers to be
able to remove the baby..."
JJ
frowned and looked away, thinking about her son. Morgan looked
through the pages of the file.
"All three women disappeared
after going to the store... Either someone had spied on them for a
while to know where they were going, or he visits the store regulary
and waits for them" Morgan said. "If the UnSub is not doing it
for the babies, but for the women, what would be the reason?" he
asked Hotch.
Their
boss shrugged.
"It's possible he's a sexual offender
preffering pregnant women" Rossi said. "That might be more
dangerous, actually, since intercorse could actually put them in
labour"
"Maybe
the UnSub works at the store" Morgan said. Hotch nodded.
"You
and Reid will check out the store. Rossi and JJ will talk to the
husbands of the victims, and Emily will come with me to talk to the
local police" Hotch said. The team nodded.
Reid looked over at Morgan and smiled a little, happy to be able to go with him and have a few minutes alone together.
