Letters from Spencer

This story is the correspondence between Spencer and Aaron while the latter is in Los Angeles for a month training some FBI agents to put together a BAU team. Chapters will be of different lengths and we'll see both Spencer's letters and Aaron's replies.

This is my first Criminal Minds fic so I would really appreciate if you told me what you think. I don't have a beta, feel free to point out any mistakes.

I don't own anything and I'm not making money by writing this.

Dear Aaron,

how are you doing? I hope everything's fine, I'm a little tired but satisfied, we caught the unsub and saved three women before he could slaughter them like he did with the others.

You weren't expecting an email from me, were you? I had the idea of writing to you earlier this evening in the jet when we were flying back home from Indiana, I was writing a letter for my mom and I thought that I could write one to you, too. I'm sorry I didn't call you yesterday or today like I promised I would but I didn't really have much time to do so. The small motel we stayed in had only two rooms available so we had to pair up. I was with Morgan and it didn't feel right talking to you in front of him. I came home half an hour earlier, I just had time for a shower and then I sat here writing to you. I know that in Los Angeles now it should be around eight in the evening but I don't really want to bother you. We can talk in the morning, before I go to the BAU. Emails are less personal than letters but they're faster and it's probably easier for you to answer an email. I hope you don't mind.

I really miss you and even though you left only three days ago it feels as if an eternity had passed. I'm glad that the Director chose you and Rossi for this task, I'm really proud of you. You should have seen Strauss' face the other day when she strode in the bullpen demanding to know where you and Rossi were and Morgan told her that you two had been selected by the Director to train seven agents of the FBI field office in Los Angeles. She was so angry that for a moment I though she was going to blow up right in front of us even though I know that it's something physically impossible. She was furious that the Director didn't ask her opinion before picking you two, I bet she's just jealous that the Director didn't ask her to go train those agents. She has no field experience, she's just a bureaucrat and not a real profiler, I wonder why it's so hard for her to understand that. I also wonder what you did to make her hate you so much. Did you slept with her like Rossi? Or she hates you because you didn't? Wait, I don't want to know.

Jack is still with Jessica, I phoned her on our way back to make sure everything is fine with your son. I'll pick him up tomorrow after work, hoping that no new cases come in at least for a while. I'm not sure it was a great idea having me taking care of Jack while you're away. You know I'm not good when it comes to kids and I am afraid to screw up. I hope I won't let you down. I'll keep you updated on how things go with him.

I'm laying in our bed now and I'm writing this on my phone, I wish you were here with me, the bed feels so cold and empty now that you're away. I miss feeling your strong arms curled around me at night as we slowly drift off, I wish I could nestle against your chest and fall asleep lulled by your steady heartbeat and your breath. I miss your hands holding me close and gently stroking my hair, my face, my back, my body... I long to call you and hear your beautiful voice but I don't want to risk embarrassing you, are you sharing a room with Rossi or are you on your own? I would die of shame if he overheard something too... intimate.

I'm sorry this is short but I'm pretty tired, I have to wake up early tomorrow because I have a lot of paperwork to do. I look forward to hearing from you tomorrow morning, give me a call, okay? I don't want to wake you up, you need to sleep.

I love you and I miss you,
Spencer
