** THIS STORY IS NOT IN THE . UNIVERSE**
Chapter 2
Hey, it's me again I've realised that I actually enjoy writing this journal so I'll continue.
In this chapter I'm going to tell you how Aaron and I started dating.
Like I said before Aaron and I started dating a little after his ex-wife died.
I know it's sound really ''mean'' because Haley died and we started dating but I learned that he loved me before his wife died.
It was one of the happiest days of my life.
Two months after Haley died
Hotch called Reid to his office like any other days at the BAU.
It had been two months since Haley died but the team had not fully recovered.
Strauss wanted Hotch to take an early retirement but he wouldn't and it pissed her of. Everyone in the Hotch's team knew that Strauss tried to end Hotch's career, but it wouldn't work.
Reid arrived in front of Hotch's office and knocked on the door.
''Please come in…'' said Hotch
''Hi you wanted to see me?''
''In fact I did… Err… I wanted to tell you something.''
Hotch was nervous. Of course he had to be nervous he was going to tell Reid about his feelings.
Spencer could sense Hotch's nervousness and didn't understand why his boss was so stressed out.
Spencer decided to speak up.
''Hotch are you ok?''
''Err… yes… I just wanted to ask you if you would like to come over to see Jack he told me that you were going to show him a book about dinosaurs he's been talking about it all week.'' That wasn't entirely false Jack did want to see Uncle Spence and Hotch already told his son that he would see Spencer. But Hotch also wanted to see Spencer.
''Yeah I remember I promised him we would look at my dinosaurs encyclopaedia when do you want me to come over?'' Spencer knew that Hotch wasn't a nervous wreck because of that. Aaron Hotchner had bee through harder things in life. But Spencer couldn't pin point what was stressing his boss.
''Well Jack is having a sleep over at Jess's until tomorrow night so Saturday will be alright.''
''Alright see you Saturday.''
Spencer came out of his boss's office with a small grin that he was trying to hide.
Jack wanted to see you not Hotch! Stop thinking about him this was. And don't you dare wish you were dating him right know his ex-wife just died, Spencer thought as he was walking to his desk.
''What did Hotch want?' 'Morgan asked
''He wanted to remind me that I promised Jack I would show him my dinosaurs encyclopaedia.''
''That sounds fun. '' Morgan replied sarcastically.
It's no that he didn't like Spencer but Morgan's idea if fun wasn't the same as Spencer's.
Reid just sat down and finished the paper work he had to finish and then went back home.
Saturday at Hotch's apartment
It was finally Saturday Reid was so happy.
He was going to see Jack and Hotch. He took his encyclopaedia and answered his phone.
…
''Hi Hotch its Reid I'm on my way.''
''Good we were finishing breakfast.''
…
Spencer heard Hotch talking to Jack.
''Do you want to speak to uncle Spence?''
His heart fluttered at the sound of Hotch calling him Spence.
''Yes dad! I want to talk to uncle Spence.''
…
''Hi Jack how are you?''
''I'm good uncle Spence I can't wait to see your book how is it called again?''
''It's an encyclopaedia en-cy-clo-pae-dia.''
'' en-cy-clo-pae-dia?''
''Yes that's it. I'll se you later ok Jack?''
''Ok. See you later uncle Spence.''
After that Spencer ended the call and finished his mug of coffee.
The day went by really quickly for Reid and Jack. They spend all day reading about dinosaurs and playing with them.
Hotch was just watching them. Well he was watching Spencer. He remembered this case when he told the husband of the victim that his dog was barking at Reid because of the Reid Effect something that happens to kids and animal around Spencer.
He still couldn't believe that the same Spencer had spent all day playing with his son.
And he fell a little bit more in love with Reid.
After all that reading and playing also because it was Saturday and Saturdays were ''Pizza Day'' in the Hotchner's household they made mini pizzas.
Hotch's pizza had vegetables and pepperoni, Jack's pizza didn't have as much vegetables and had a lot of cheese and pepperoni, Spencer's pizza was a mix of vegetables, pepperoni and cheese. They all ate their pizza and Reid kept telling Jack new things about dinosaurs.
While Spencer was in the bathroom Jack asked his dad something he never thought Jack would ask.
''Can we have a sleep over with uncle Spence I want him to tell me more things and teach me magic tricks.''
Hotch was surprised by his son's question but also happy he wanted Reid to stay.
''You have to ask uncle Spence if he wants' to I can't decide for him wait until he comes back from the washroom.''
When Spencer came back Hotch started washing the dishes while Jack asked Spencer to sleep over.
''Uncle Spence can you sleep over please I really want you to tell me other things about dinosaurs. Pleeeeeeeaaaaasssssseeeeee?''
Reid was surprised by Jack's question but he wanted to stay because he had a good time with him and also wanted to stay with Hotch as long has he could.
'' You have to ask your dad Jack and if he says yes I'll stay.''
''I already ask him and he told me that I ad to ask you because he couldn't answer for you and you said yes! That's so cool! Let's go tell dad.''
Hotch that was finishing the dishes heard all the conversation between Spencer and his son but he pretended he didn't hear the when Jack and Spencer came to see him in the kitchen.
''Guess what dad! Spencer said yes! We can have a sleep over that's so cool! .''
''Yes Jack it's really cool but what do we usually do on Fridays?''
''We watch movies! So does this mean we are going to watch a movie with Spencer?''
''Only if he wants to. We invited him after all.''
Spencer was so happy he didn't care if they were watching a movie.
''Of course we can watch a movie that do you want to watch?''
''The Avengers that's what me and dad were suppose to watch today.''
''The Avengers it is'' Spencer said.
…
After the movie Spencer got to his car and got his go bad.
He never thought he would have a sleep over at his boss's house.
…
Jack was now asleep in his bed, Hotch had one of those couch's that were also a mattress he go it when Jack moved to his apartment permanently because Jess's would come over a lot more and she had to have somewhere to sleep.
''Do you want something to drink?' asked Hotch
''No thanks… But can I ask you something?''
''Yeah… What?''
''How do you do it Hotch? How do you keep it together?''
Hotch was surprised by Spencer's question but answered because he knew where Reid was coming from.
''Honestly, I don't know I just so use to be the stoic Aaron Hotchner it's like second nature.''
''But your so confident and always ready to work and I'm the shy genius that looks like a twelve years old.''
''Reid you're an amazing person, all the things you know it's amazing and your strong to. You've been throught a lot in your life and you could have used your knowledge to fool people but you used it to help them and that's a wonderful thing.''
Spencer was looking at the ground and didn't realise Hotch had got closer to him but when he looked up he felt Hotch's lips on his and it took him a second to realise what was happening.
Hotch and Reid locked open mouth and started exploring each other.
Their kiss was tender yet so passionate. When Hotch pulled away Reid looked up at Hotch.
''I'm not sorry that I kissed you Spencer. Now go to sleep and we'll talk about this tomorrow. I promise.
Hotch than went to his bedroom and Reid fell asleep with images of that kiss replaying in his mind.
The Morning After
Aaron woke up first and headed to the living room. He saw Reid sleeping on the couch and decided to wake him up so they could talk like he promised yesterday.
''Spence it's time to wake up.''
Spencer opened his eyes and remembered what happened the night before.
''I'm up Hotch'' he replied with his sleepy voice.
''You can call me Aaron you know.''
Reid got up and went to the kitchen and saw coffee his face letup at the sight of the dark drink.
Aaron gave him a mug and Spencer added at least eight spoons of sugar.
Feeling that Spencer would not start the conversation Hotch spoke up.
''Like I said last night I'm not sorry I kissed you. But are you.''
''No I'm not I wanted to do that for so long. But you're my boss and I don't want to give Strauss something to help her end your career.'' Reid started blushing
''I know, I know but we can tell the team when you want to.''
''I kind of love you Aaron Hotchner.''
''I kind of love you too Spencer Reid.''
Two months later
It had been two months since Aaron and Spencer started dating. They didn't tell the team at first because they were not ready and than they had a really long case. But know that they were back home they were ready to announce it.
Rossi that suspected something offered to have a get together at his house and told Aaron and Spencer that they could announce what they wanted announced their.
''Look Aaron I know their something going on with you and Reid I also know about those dating rules nut I think you could at lest tell the team.''
''How did you? I thought we were more careful than that.''
''You guys were careful but I noticed and Morgan is starting to get suspicious and I don't want to be the one telling him about your relationship with Reid. So why don't you guys come over and you tell the team what's going on.''
''I'll talk with Reid. Thank you Dave.''
At Rossi's
Everyone arrived at Rossi's beside Hotch and Spencer. After waiting a good fifteen minutes Hotch and Reid arrived.
''What took you so long you two?' 'JJ asked she was also suspicious that something was going on between Hotch and Reid
Hotch and Reid sat next to each other and Spencer started to explain himself.
''I had another play date with jack and…-''
Spencer was cut buy Morgan who was clearly pissed of.
''Bull' we all know theirs something going on between you and Hotch.''
Hotch looked at Spencer and took his hand. Hotch knew he had to tell the team.
''Well Spencer and I are dating.''
Everyone was silent for a minute processing the news they just heard. Again Morgan was the first one to react.
'' I don't know what sick twisted game your playing but I wont let you hurt Spencer.''
Hotch was taken aback by those comments and mad at Derek but he had to keep his composure at lest for Reid. However Reid was extremely mad at his best friend for once in his life he was truly happy but his best friend couldn't accept it.
''I don't know what your talking about Morgan. Hotch and I have been dating for two months and he even met my mom. ''
Morgan was astonished'' Wow you actually brainwashed Reid and now he believes you love him. Why do you do it Hotch?''
Hotch was really starting to get pissed
''I love Spencer, Morgan and I know were your coming from but I wont accept that you talk to me like that and start implying that I'm playing games with Reid.''
Spencer looked at Hotch and told him that he thought it was time to go.
Rossi felt really bad for the couple so he excused himself and went to see Aaron and Spencer that were already leaving.
''I'm really sorry Aaron I had no idea Morgan would react like that.''
''its not your fault Dave.' 'replied Hotch
Reid and Hotch went back to Hotch's apartment
…
''I don't why is so against the fact that were dating it's not like it was his decision.''
''I know Spencer, I know but we don't have to care about what he thinks. I love you and even Morgan couldn't change that.''
''I love you too Aaron.''
Spencer wrapped his arms around his lover and started kissing him and everything felt better again.
The following days at the BAU were quite awkward.
There was still a lot of tension between Morgan and Reid at work.
Spencer was hurt and Morgan didn't change his position he was against Reid and Hotch dating.
JJ, Emily and Garcia were trilled for Spencer and Hotch and Rossi he already knew.
…
That's how Hotch and I started dating. Morgan is still against it but I don't really care anymore because I love Hotch and that's all that matters. I'm not as angry at Morgan anymore. I'm just sad that he can't be happy for me and Hotch. Hotch and I are actually engaged and we can't wait to get married.
We haven't told them team but when we will I don't really care it Morgan's mad it's my life and that how I want to live it.
bye.
Spencer Reid
AN: So that's it! This was a really hard but amazing chapter to write. I had some trouble writing the scene when Hotch and Reid finally ''got togheter'' and I do not hate Morgan he's a really amazing character it's just that Morgan was reacting like that in other Hotch/Reid pairing and I think that's how he would have reacted in ''real life''.
Please leave your reviews and questions you want ''Spencer'' to answer in the next chapters.
I'm trying to find two days to upload during the week it will probably be Monday and Friday because I can get to write during the weekend and you guys don't have to wait to long for an other chapter.
bye guys :)
