update is here... Reviews :)
Its been hours after David and Spencer dropped her off at her front door but Erin only managed to step inside her house and sit for a couple of minutes before she started to sort through some of her take home case files. She didn't even have the time to get upstairs and get a decent shower and clean clothes, and she is getting a bit more upset as every minute turn into hours that her phone didn't ring.
she glanced down at another folder and looked longingly to the phone, what she would give for one of her children to call her and perhaps to greet her a happy mother's day. In her hearts of heart, no matter how bullshit coated and no matter how thick the fuck is its wall, she is hurting.
Hurting in the sense that there is a sick sensation in her heart that makes her wanna pee and cry at the same time, it makes her want to vomit all the sadness out, makes her want to shout and throw everything within her grasp and making her want to just shut up and die. She knew she'd been a bad daughter and a bland wife, if there is something she thought she was good at, it was for being a mom, but apparently, she screwed that up too. The moment she allowed herself to be addicted to alcohol she gave up her "best mom award" all too easy.
The world outside started to grow dark, and street lamps took their turns in lighting up. All but Erin's house became alive with its welcoming homely warm lights. Erin dozed off with a heavy heart in her throat, the buzzing of her door woke her up, she slept sad and she has woken up from a nap, confused and upset.
"Don't tell me, you forgot to pay the electricity...?"
"What are you doing here David?"
Erin flicked the switch and the whole house came to life.
"Hey, would you mind waiting up for Spencer? He's collecting things from the trunk.'
"Sure David Rossi, come in and saunter into my house."
She stated sarcastically and it seem that David do not give a damn, he went through the kitchen and soon enough pans and casseroles were banging at each other. Reid came in minutes later with face hidden behind gigantic paper bags not even seeing Erin standing at the front door.
"A little to the right Spencer, ow! Watch your feet. To the left. No, not there that's the powder room, turn to the left, mind your head.."
Erin was too dumb founded and as if she is nailed to where she is standing staring blankly into the kitchen door, she could hear David and Spencer mumbling things.
She decided to follow them and see for herself what is going on, when Spencer came out with a box of flower in his hand and gift on the other.
"What is this?"
"Well, happy mother's day to you.. And thank you for taking me on your wing and welcoming me on your nest even if it is only for two days. Here, flowers. I don't know which do you prefer but I got you Lilly of the valleys. Im…i—m ahem I am proud to call you my mother even if its just for a short period of time, thank you."
Spencer leaned down to give Erin a kiss on her cheek and he reached on her face to wipe away a streak of tear that fell from her misty blue eyes.
"Thank you, son…"
Erin whispered her gratefulness but it seems that her heart is shouting it from the top of the highest mountains; never in her dreams did it ever occur to her that Spencer Reid could be the reason of her 'happy' tears ever.
"What about this?"
"I got you a lavender bath soap and lavender candles to calm you up a bit, now, do me a favor and relax for a bit. Get a shower while David and I prepare dinner.."
Spencer pushed her towards the stairs and she is happy to oblige.
