"Reid... we need to talk" began Hotch, as I entered the meeting room. Everyone was already sit around the table, but unlike other times they weren't commenting about the next case. They were looking at me with a worried expression, all but Morgan... he simply looked furious "JJ, Emily, Garcia and Morgan told us about your... meeting of last night with Derek Hale" I just nodded my head and took a seat. Still not understanding what this had to do with the next investigation, or why were we discussing my private life in middle of working hours "We just want you to know that we accept your sexuality, and I don't want you to think that we won't accept it".
My eyes widened in fear for a few seconds. However, I relaxed when JJ took my hand and flashed me a gentle smile. I let my gaze wander around the room and saw various comforting looks from my companions "I don't like to think about sexuality as labels. I believe that love is something fluid, that's what taught me my mother" I explained to them.
"She is a brilliant woman, Spence" replied JJ, still smiling at me.
"But..." my attention returned to Hotch, when this began talking again "We need to know if you are involved in some kind of mess, so we will be able to help you".
"Excuse me... what?" I asked. More confused that I had been in all my life "What do you mean by 'involved in some kind of mess'?".
"Did you know that Hale is married and had children?" questioned me, in a brute tone, Morgan. If I didn't know him better or if I wasn't a profiler, I would have thought he was mad at me. He seemed more likely to be... jealous?
"Of course, I did!" I replied "He is married to my niece after all. He is also the father of my grand-niece and grand-nephew".
"He... what?!" everyone exlcaimed astonished.
"He is my nephew in law" I told them again "What is so strange about it?".
"How old is your nice?" demanded to know Rossi.
"Eighteen years old, almost nineteen" I answered "Why?".
"And she is married to a man so much older and already has children?" inquired Emily.
"It is a Reid women trait. My mother had my older sister very young, Claudia had my niece very young too and now Stiles is just following the path" I explained as if it was normal, which wasn't. Cause even if it is not unusual, he knew that for the rest it was "This still doesn't answer my question, what is going on here" I asked again. This time more firmly and with a stern look.
"We thought that you and Hale had an affair behind his wife's back" answered a very ashamed Garcia.
"You thought what?!" I exclaimed astonished "We, profilers, know to never judge someone or a situation by what someone told you. Or by what we saw the first time" they all seemed to have the decency to look ashamed. Except Morgan who seemed to have won the lottery. What was wrong with him? He is acting very strange I thought to myself "What?!" I answered my phone grumpily. I was not having a very good day "Stiles! Calm down that I am not understanding anything".
"Brenda and Danny are pregnant!" she told me excitedly, once she calmed down and took a deep breath.
"Wait! What?!" I asked in shock. That couldn't be truth. I understand that Brenda's wolf will feel that it is the right moment to have puppies, because her Luna is pregnant. But Danny is a human man, he is incapable of reproducing with another man.
"I used a spell from mom's grimoire and created a potion that can let males get pregnant, but it can only happen once. If Danny loses this child, he will never be able to have another pregnancy... ever again" she explained everything to me.
"Well... that was unexpected but great to know. Is good to know that they will have the same possibilities, especially when the majority of the pa... I mean us have that problem" I told her proudly of her.
"You have to come soon. Derek wants the pack to gather soon, he says that his Alpha is not happy knowing that there are so many vulnerable members and the pack is spread all over the country" she announced to me.
"Ok, I'll take a few leave days for that" I told her and then ended the call. The misunderstanding was not mentions again and we all focused on the task we had ahead. When the meeting finished and I went to gather my things for the travel, my phone rang again "Hi! This is Spencer Reid on the phone".
"Doctor Reid, this is Steven Godson" he presented himself.
"Thomas's psychology teacher" I said, remembering his name from a conversation with my nephew a few night ago. He told me that one of his teachers was a warlock and that there was no danger of him telling our secret.
"Exactly. I know that your nephew is an Old One and they can't get sick, so can you explain to me why did Thomas skipped classes saying that he caught a flu?" he questioned me "Is there a new danger I have to be aware of".
"No... is that his Alpha is in the city making a visit. And he wanted to spend some quality time with him" I told him and then ended the call.
Thomas Stilinski! That young man is getting into a lot of problems when he gets back from his date with Newt. I knew that they were acting a bit strange this morning, I should have noticed earlier I scolded myself in my head.
"What is wrong Pretty Boy?" asked me worriedly Morgan but trying not to show it.
"Thomas skipped classed to go on a date with Newt" I told him.
"ReallY?".
"Don't look so happy Morgan" I scolded my friend "We need to be good examples for them..." I stopped talking when I noticed what I had said. By the look on Derek's face I knew that he noticed it too "Morgan I...".
"Don't talk Pretty Boy" he said and I shut up immediately, afraid of what will happen now "I think it's my turn to speak this time".
