Chapter 7
"No I suggest that you do take him home and take care of him. We'll give you a call if we find anything in the blood or urine." he said.
Hotch let out a relieved sigh. He was happy that he wasn't forced to let Spencer be institutionalized like his mom.
"You may take him whenever you're ready," the psychologist said.
"Good we're ready. I'll sign any papers you need me to sign as I have the power over attorney over him."
"Alright, that's fine," he said as he left.
Morgan grabbed Reid's hand and ushered him out of the room.
Hotch and JJ following them close behind. Hotch had an important 'talk' with a certain someone when they got away from the public place.
"JJ's car is at my place and she's going to help me Reid proof my house," he told his superior.
"I'm going with you. You and I need to have a 'talk'."
"I figure as much," he said
Hotch went back to the nurses' station and sign all the papers that needed to be signed. He then went to his car and drow to Morgan's place.
After changing Spence he told Morgan to go to the car with him and he was going to get some money. Since he'd left his money wallet at home when Taking Spencer to the hospital.
Back at Morgan's house Spencer yawned and rubbed his eyes.
"You can sleep when I get done shopping for you," he said ushering JJ and him out of his place.
Just as they were about to leave the house Hotch showed up. "I'll stay with Spencer. The boy is tired. You know soon enough Morgan that it isn't wise to take a sleepy child with you out shopping."
"Hense why I don't have kids," he shrugged.
"Well if like it or not, you have one now."
Morgan groaned and shuddered. Maybe he should rethink this and hand over Spencer to Hotch.
Hotch gave him a glare. 'In for a penny, in for a pound'.
"I know, I know," he said.
"Now you better get going. I'll make sure to tuck Spencer in for a nap."
"Ok, see ya when we get back." he said as him and JJ left.
At the store Morgan thought he would cry at how much everything was adding to. He downright rejected buying him a crib and stroller. He'd just have to sleep either with him or on a pallet on the floor.
"You need a bed like crib, Morgan." JJ said.
"If he sleeps on the floor I won't have to worry about him rolling out,"
"You can't let him sleep on the floor!"
Morgan shrugged, "And why not?"
"Because he's mentally a child. He can get up middle of the night and do stuff you don't want him to do. And besides he needs to feel secure and a crib like bed is the best for that."
"Look, prioritize. One, I don't have a space available for him to sleep in, you know a room. I'll see if Hotch can help with that. But two, I am on a limited budget here."
"I'll buy you the crib and besides I think Hotch would like to spend money on Spencer."
"Oh, OK, then he can be My guest. What else will I need, mom?"
"Pacifier, bottles and baby formulas. More diapers, lots of diapers. Do you have a baby monitor?"
"No I don't. And if he's an adult why do I need baby formula?" he said putting some of the stuff she'd just said in the basket.
"Because he is acting as a baby and not as an adult. Baby formulas is good to comfort him for when he's sad, tired or scared."
Morgan groaned and got the formula, "I have plenty of diapers," he said.
"Okay, but they slip up so fast."
"I have like three huge boxes" he said he got some other thing and looked at something, "What is 'butt paste'?"
"For when the baby gets a diaper rash. You better get that one too. They get rash so easily."
All this was making his head spin. But he just got most of what she said.
"Are we done now?" he asked
"Almost. We need bibs. Baby oil and baby shampoo or and let's not forget toys and for baths too."
Morgan groaned and grabbed all that she said, "Now are we done. Now that my bill is probably $300?"
"Yes... no wait we forgot one important thing..."
"What?"Aprin? No wait, cabinet locks." he said
"A teddy bear! Yes that too"
Morgan did an anime fall, "Are you serious?"
"Yes I am!"
"I hate children," he said walking to get the last two things."
"I thought you have younger siblings."
"I never took care of them! I never even met my supposed youngest brother."
JJ was curious she wanted to know more about Morgan's youngest brother he'd never seen. "Youngest brother?"
"Yeah. Come on, I want to go home and take a nap myself."
"I want to hear more about your youngest brother first."
"I never met him, what is there to hear? My dad died a week before he said he'd take me to see him."
"What's his name? Where does he live? Don't you want to see him? Why wasn't he growing up with your parents?"
"Why!? Are you asking me all this stuff. I don't know I don't know and I don't know. My mother and father broke up when she was pregnant with him."
"Because he's your brother. Aren't you curious to who he is? What he's doing? Your mother we met in Chicago isn't she your biological mother?"
"Yes, JJ, yes. I'm tired ok. I honestly don't think it matters.'
"Did she put your brother up for adoption or did your take your brother with him when they split up?"
"She was pregnant with him when she left, she took him with her," he said going to the line to pay for the things.
"I really think you should try to find him. You could ask Garcia for help."
Morgan at this point was ignoring her and paying for the expensive crap.
'Okay Morgan. keep ignoring me, but I will get Garcia to help me find him', JJ thought.
Morgan strolled the horrid basket of crap to his car. He opened the trunk, imagining Spencer's body in there , and put the groceries in with a smile.
He was angry. So angry! He's planned had all been ruined. Because of that damn Agent Morgan. He ruined everything! He kept him away from his baby! It had all been so perfect. The boy drugged and alone and another vacation for two week. No one would have missed him. "I want my baby!" The stranger yelled and threw a glass across the room and in splattered into pieces.
"You'll get him, calm down," another stranger said, "Just consider this time to get better prepared."
He tried to calm down, "Yeah you're right. I better find a much better plan and then I'll have my baby forever and that damn Agent Morgan will never see him ever again!"
The other man sighed. Happy he'd been able to calm him. He didn't want to get smacked out of his anger, "You still have to think of how you'll be able to get him out of there and to here before he wakes up."
"We better not take him today. Let them enjoy my baby for a little while they can, soon he'll be out of their lives forever and my responsibility."
"It'll be good for him. All this danger he's in with them. It's apparent he's not safe."
"So true."
"So, are we going back to the hotel?"
"Yes let's do that and make some new plans."
"Ok," he said. As he walked he stopped, "Uhm.... I have to...."
He slapped the man's butt, "Then you better hurry!"
"Ow!" he whined and grabbed the area of impact, "That really hurt." he whimpered.
"It was supposed to hurt, now you better get, before I put a diaper on you full time instead of only at bedtimes!"
