It was about the time of year when Uncle John would be over celebrating the Holidays, and Kurt had been worried someone had figured out his secret. He couldn't figure out HOW, he had always been careful, after every deed he would scrub his body clean, to hide his immorality, hand wash his ruined clothes so he wouldn't receive any unwanted questions, and hope he would get a day or two free before his uncle would demand another performance, starting the cycle of guilt all over again.

Kurt shook himself out of the flashback of heartache violently, wishing the shaking of his hands would stop as he reached for the phone and called the one person he knew wouldn't judge him for his decision.

Spencer and the team were on the jet on their way home after another successful case, the team was in an extremely good mood after this particular mission, as they had managed to quickly and efficiently apprehend the UnSub with no injuries or deaths.

The team had managed to get the little boys he had kidnapped safely home to their parents whole and healthy for the most part, the worst injury the boys had sustained was a sprained ankle. With high spirits the team was laughing and joking with each other, their usual playful teasing bouncing between them. Spencer was giggling quietly at Garcia and Morgan's usual ribbing when he heard Hotch speak up from behind him.

Turning slightly in his seat to face him Spencer asked "What was that Hotch?"

Hotch gave Spencer one of his rare grins. "It's Kurt's 17th today isn't it?" Hotch repeated.

Spencer positively beamed, face lighting up at the thought of his younger sibling. "Yes, It is. I called him about an hour ago. He said everything was going great. I was going to give him his gift when I got home tonight." A happy laugh emanated from Garcia's speakers as her face shone from the screen.

"I've been meaning to give him mine, will you drop it off for me?" Spencer smiled

"I have a better idea, why don't you come with me and give it to him yourself?" Garcia nodded enthusiastically as Emily, J.J., and Morgan began to exclaim that they also had gifts for Kurt. Spencer laughed as he breathlessly assured them he could come with them to see Kurt.

Glancing up at Rossi and Hotch he asked "Are you coming?" just barely managing to not sound shy. Hotch nodded and Rossi gave a fond yes. Spencer grinned and opened his mouth to speak when his phone started to ring

"One moment, it's Kurt."

"Put him on speaker!" Garcia called from her screen.

Spencer hurried to click speaker with an indulgent smile, excited to hear his younger brothers voice.

"Spencer... is there something wrong with me?" Kurt was obviously crying into the phone.

"What? Kurt why would you say that? Of course there's nothing wrong with you!" Everyone on the plane had expressions of confusion and concern as Kurt's voice echoed in the dead silent plane,

"Blaine... you remember him right?" Only Rossi noticed the way Morgan's jaw clenched at name of Kurt's emotionally and verbally abusive boyfriend

"You mean the hobbit?" JJ asked quietly.

"Yea..." Kurt sniffled "he broke up with me and, I just needed someone to talk to ya know" he let out a sad chuckle at the end as if hoping to ease any tension. He failed.

"Did he tell you why?" Hotch asked, keeping his voice calm and cool though his eyes flamed.

"Yeah he did...Umm...he told me it was unacceptable that I wouldn't put out and that if I wait any longer no one would ever want me, and that I should thank him for making the sacrifice of taking my virginity and... and then he pushed me on the bed even after I said I didn't want to and-"

"HE WHAT!" a chorus of angry cries rose up from the surrounding team members.

"Oh god there's something wrong with me isn't there...shit, I'm going to call him."

"No Kurt" Morgan stated, fury thinly veiled by the calm of his tone. "if you don't want to have sex with someone you don't have to-" Here he was interrupted by Spencer

"He's right Kurt, Rossi, when do we land?" Hotch answered before Rossi got the chance, "About two hours max"

Spencer gave a brief nod and turned back to his phone "Don't make and rash decisions before we get there"

"OK Spence" Kurt's muted voice came through the phone "love you"

The whole team, including Rossi and Hotch, leaned forward to give Kurt a quiet I love you. With the call ended the team fell into a somber silence for the rest of the flight, each and every one imagining ways to violently kill the hobbit that hurt the one they loved.
