Sorry for the extended wait. I had a bad case of writers block.

Reid decided that since he had gotten fired from the BAU that he was no longer welcome so he started thinking of new jobs and then an idea popped into his head. The University of Virginia. He could teach. He locked up his storage locker and made his way out of the front gates and to the nearest bus stop so he could go to a library. Reid needed to do some research.
Reid got onto the 5 bus and made his way to the nearest library, he hopped onto a computer and went to see if they were looking to hire anybody. Luckily they were and it just so happened that a spot in the faculty of engineering was available. Reid quickly typed out a resume and sent it off to the faculty. Reid wasnt expecting a fast response so he was gathering his stuff when the computer beeped and it was an email from the University of Virginia. They wanted him to come in today preferably for an interview! Reid nearly screamed but found the restraint not to. He gathered his things and went outside to catch the University bus so he could go and rock this interview.

"Morgan I need that case report ASAP!" Hotch yelled from his office down to Morgan
"I am working as fast as I can Hotch, if Reid were here I would get him to do it." Morgan said
"Morgan we don't need to start that again." Hotch said
"What? Start the fact that we catch the worst criminals everyday but we are all useless at saving Reid from his coma?" Morgan asked
"My office!" Hotch yelled
Morgan got up and went to Hotch's office and slammed the door making every agent in the bullpen jump.
"Yes?" Morgan asked
"Do I need to suspend you?" Hotch asked
"What for voicing my thoughts?" Morgan asked
"Look Derek, this is going to come across as harsh but you obviously need to hear it. We are not doctors, therefore we cannot save Reid. Whining and moaning about it is not going to help him recover any faster. So I suggest you get yourself together and act like an agent or I will suspend you pending review." Hotch said sternly
"Yes sir." Morgan said flatly and walked out resuming his case work

Reid had arrived at the University and was wheeling himself into the main building with the offices, he was trying to suppress the huge smile that was plastered on his face. He informed the receptionist who he was and she waved him into an office.
"Andrea will be in soon." the receptionist said
"Thank you." Reid said
"Good luck." the receptionist said before closing the door.
Reid was looking around when a lady he assumed was Andrea walked in and shook his hand.
"Hello I am Andrea and I assume you are Dr. Spencer Reid." Andrea said
"Yes I am." Reid replied
"I was looking at your credentials and I have to say they are quite impressive Doctor." Andrea said
"Thank you." Reid responded
"Now I will keep this short, we are in dire need of a new professor to teach the Master of Engineering program. Would you be up to teaching that?" Andrea asked
"I would love nothing more, It was my favourite program that I have completed." Reid said smile growing
"Well I can't see a reason not to hire you, we did have others lined up but they don't have anything near what you have so I think you will be a great fit. As you probably know the new term starts on September 3rd so that means you have just over 2 weeks to get lessons planned. Your teachers manuals will be sent to you as soon as we get an address." Andrea explained
"I have an apartment in sights I just have to meet with the superintendent to see if it is right for me." Reid explained
"Well then I think that about wraps everything up here. I am happy to welcome you to the faculty here at The University of Virginia." Andrea said
"Thank you Andrea." Reid said
"Anytime you need anything don't hesitate to come down and ask." Andrea said
"I will remember that." Reid said before closing the door behind him and wheeling down towards the sidewalk
While Reid was at the library he had been looking at cheap apartments around the University and found one within wheeling distance so he decided to book an appointment with the superintendent so he could have a look inside. This was Reid's next stop.
Reid turned left and started wheeling towards his hopeful apartment. He arrived with time to spare and decided to go into the office and see if he could start the appointment earlier. To his luck he was free and within no time he was shaking hands with the super and getting the keys to his new apartment. It was almost identical to his old apartment other than the layout. While talking with the super Reid found out it was built by the same person and they just moved things around so it wouldn't look identical.
Reid then asked if he could use his phone so he could call a moving company to come and bring his things to his new apartment. He found one that wasn't charging an arm and a leg and he was going down to meet them at his locker. When Reid got there the moving company was already waiting and he passed them the keys to the locker and they gladly talked with Reid while loading up his belongings. They offered to give him a ride over which Reid gladly accepted, and for the next few hours Reid helped where he could to move into his new apartment.
5 hours later Reid had paid the movers and he was now sitting in his new apartment, he was excited that he was able to do this without the help of his old team that abandoned him. This day was a huge step for Reid in the right direction for recovery.
