JJ had left work after lunch, since she had gotten all her work done. She drove home in about 15 minutes, desperate to just be home already. She didn't like going out in social settings, and even to much time at the office stressed her out. It had been like that since the abduction, even though she wouldn't admit it to herself. She blamed it on social anxiety, even if she had never felt like that before. She sat down and opened a bottle of wine and poured herself some, doing anything she could to calm herself down and bring her stress levels back down to earth. She had been sitting down watching tv for nearly 5 hours when there was a knock at the door. Her guard shot through the roof. She quietly put her glass down and tiptoed to the kitchen to grab her gun of the table. She paced over to the door and looked through the peephole to see Spencer. She let out a breath and opened the door.

"Hey Spence, what's up?"

"Uh, not much, I just wanted to ask you a quick question". He replied.

"Yeah, sure, what's up? Is everything okay with them team?"

He took a deep breath in. "Jaydge, why did you tell Emily you were going to the gym today instead of going out with us?"

Shit. JJ had completely forgot about her lie to get out of going out for drinks. She swallowed. "How did you know" she said bluntly.

"JJ, you're the biggest exercise junkie I know, you know when the gym is open. And today, it's not." He paused. "What's going on?"

JJ sighed. There was no hiding it now, at least from him. She had guessed he would figure it out eventually, she was just hoping it wouldn't be this soon. She hadn't even begun to fully understand it yet. Oh well. "Spence, why don't you come in and sit down?"

He followed her to the couch and sat down opposite of her. She looked him in the eyes and began

"After the abduction, I expected to come home and for everything to be okay. I thought that I would go back to my normal life as a profiler and not have to worry about anything." She paused, not sure how to get everything out. "But it wasn't. I gave it a week. I waited and waited for it to start getting better, but it never did. I would close my eyes and I would see him, and hear his voice. I couldn't get away from it, it was like it was consuming my life and there was nothing I could do about it. I thought it would get better but it just never did. I was stuck with the memory of him torturing me and-"

JJ had to stop, she was crying so much she could barely get the words out. She looked up at Spencer and saw that he understood what she was talking about. His face showed nothing but pain and resent for the man that did this to her.

"Jaydge, why didn't you tell us? We could have helped you through all of it. Or, at least, why didn't you tell me?

The last thing JJ wanted was for Spencer to be upset she didn't tell him. "Spence, it wasn't like that. I didn't even want to admit it to myself." She paused to think about how she wanted to word this part. "My biggest fear joining the BAU was to come out of something with PTSD. I didn't want one thing to control how I lived the rest of my life. So when you guys saved me, I did my best to completely forget everything that happened to me there. I wanted to move on with life like usual. I was in complete denial that what happened to me could haunt me forever. I chose not to deal with it, and in turn it just haunted me even more. I wasn't sure how to deal with my problems, so I didn't at all. I haven't been able to sleep, or even go out in public. I was too scared that I was still somehow in danger. That's why I didn't want to go out tonight."

Spence just looked at her. He knew that she was still having issues, but he didn't know the full extent. She was so strong, so independent, he couldn't even imagine her being weak, even if he had seen it just a couple of months ago.

"JJ, I'm so sorry you have to go through all of this. I didn't know this much was bothering you."

"That's because I didn't want anyone to know. I was trying to deal with it myself. And since I'm not getting any sleep, I can barely even get through a work day now."

Spencer stared at her sympathetically. "When is the last time you even slept through the night?"

JJ took a deep breathe in. "The first night I got back. When you stayed with me. I don't know if it's because the reality of the situation hadn't fully hit me yet, or if it's because you were there. And it sucks, because know I have to stay home. I would much rather be with you guys than stuck in my house because I'm too stressed to leave."

Spencer thought for a moment. "JJ, do you want me to hang out here tonight? We can watch movies, and you won't have to be alone."

JJ smiled at the thought, but then remembered his previous plans. "But you have plans to go out tonight"

Spencer shrugged. "There will be plenty more nights for them to drag me out with them against my will," he joked, "but tonight I'd rather stay with you."

JJ smiled big enough it reached her eyes. "Thanks, Spence. It means a lot."

They spent the next 5 hours watching Disney movies, much to Reid's amusement and enjoyment. After getting though Robin Hood, Pocahontas, and halfway through Lady and the Tramp, he looked down to see her asleep on his shoulder. He eased his arm from under her, stood up, picked her up and took her to her room and lay her down on the bed. He started for the door to leave, until he heard a small, quiet voice say his name. He turned around and look at her, her eyes still closed.

"Yeah"

"Please don't leave. I think you stop the nightmares. And I'm not lonely when you're here. Please?"

He turned around and lay down in the bed next to her, and she leaned her back into him. He wrapped his arms around her.

"Good night, JJ"

"Good night Spence." She turned around and kissed him on the cheek. "Thank You."
