A/N: Hey guys, the goal for today is to catch up on my chapters so keep your fingers crossed for me! Hopefully by midnight tonight you guys will have chapters 11 and 12 as well though I can't guarantee it.
The cliché in this chapter is a slightly adapted version of an idea from RoseLaurel so thanks again to her for the brilliant ideas she e-mailed me!

February 10
Hotch woke up and glanced at the clock noticing his alarm was set to go off in a few minutes. His arms tightened automatically around Reid as he looked down at the messy brown hair on his chest, the youth was so perfectly suited to him. Hotch would be the first to admit that he is a difficult person to live with but Reid never let him get away with any of the habits that annoyed him. He leaned his head down to kiss Reid's hair before shaking a slim shoulder lightly, "Wake up Spencer."
Reid shifted in his sleep and cuddled closer to Hotch with a sigh. "Come on Spencer, time to get up." Reid's eyes finally fluttered open and he let out a yawn while stretching luxuriously. "Mmmm morning Aaron." Hotch chuckled and lightly pinched Reid on the ass, "What was that Kitten?" Reid groaned, "Aaron Hotchner, I swear." Hotch cut him off by capturing Reid's lips with his in a passionate kiss.
Reid pulled away with a sigh and giggled as Hotch tried to follow him for another kiss. "Sorry Aaron, we have work and we desperately need to shower since you put us to bed all sweaty and gross last night." Hotch groaned and loosened his hold on the youth, shivering from the chill when Reid's body was no longer on him. He smiled to himself hoping that he would never stop reacting in such ways to his lover moving away from him, he longed for the boy constantly and loved the feelings that Reid caused to erupt in him.
Hotch watched with slight amusement as Reid went to his bedside table and removed his collar with a sigh, running his hand lightly over it before placing it in the drawer. "Why do you like wearing it so much?" Reid blushed slightly, "I like wearing it because even though no one can see it under the shirts I would wear it with I know it is there. It is comfortable and every time I shift and feel it or think about it the collar reminds me that you love me and you aren't going to leave."
Hotch stood and moved around the bed to pull Reid into his arms. "Spencer I am not like your father or like Gideon." Reid sighed and leaned back against Hotch's chest, "I know you aren't Aaron, that is why they call them irrational fears." The snort of humorless laughter that accompanied those words had Hotch's heart sinking, "I guess I am just waiting for the other shoe to drop and I will wake up to find that this is just an amazing dream." Hotch pressed his face against Reid's neck, "That won't happen Spencer, I love you and I am not going away. I will never leave you."
Reid tilted his head back against Hotch's shoulder as Hotch laved his neck with gentle kisses. The feeling of Hotch's hands massaging his hips and stomach was calming and Reid slowly turned his face to kiss Hotch firmly, desperately. Hotch traced Reid's lips lightly with his tongue and nipped Reid's lower lip before pulling away. "I love you Aaron." Hotch kissed him again and smiled when he pulled away again, "I will never let you go Spencer, you are mine now and forever just as I am yours." Reid pulled away from Hotch's arms with a small smile, "We are going to be late for work." Hotch watched as Reid glanced once more at his bedside table before rushing into the bathroom. Hotch sighed and followed Reid into the bathroom with the certainty that his lover wasn't actually feeling any better.
They showered quickly and Hotch realized Reid had been absolutely right earlier, the shower was desperately needed. Once they were out of the shower Reid was looking at clothes in the closet trying to choose what to wear. He kept reaching for turtlenecks then he would pull his hand back, it would be obvious amongst profilers if he was to wear turtlenecks often when before he had only worn them on occasion. He didn't care about the team but other agents worked in the bullpen.
Hotch had been watching Reid out of the corner of his eye and walked over pulling a nice blue shirt out of the boy's closet, "If you keep standing around in a towel like that we won't make it to work this morning." Reid looked at Hotch in surprise before blushing and taking the shirt and grabbing a pair of black jeans to go with it. As they passed through the kitchen they both grabbed a mug of coffee and Hotch grabbed a couple of oranges out of a fruit bowl on the counter.
As they drove Hotch watched out of the corner of his eye as Reid simply played with the orange, tossing it between his hands but making no move to eat it. "Spencer you should eat." Reid startled slightly and started pealing the orange and Hotch's eyes were drawn to the movements of Reid's fingers and he swallowed thickly just thinking about those hands. Once the peal was resting discarded on a paper towel in Reid's lap Hotch looked over again just in time to see Reid slip a slice of the fruit into his mouth. Reid's unintentionally sensual movements caused Hotch to groan and Reid looked up in confusion before realizing where Hotch's mind had gone and he tried to hide the smirk that spread across his face.
Reid pulled the next slice of orange from the rest and slipped just the end into his mouth before biting down and pulling the fruit back out of his mouth to wet his lips with the juice of it. He slipped the rest of the orange slice into his mouth before licking the juice lightly off of his lips. Hotch reached over with one hand and used his thumb to wipe up the juice that had slipped down Reid's chin. Reid slid his tongue out and wrapped it around Hotch's thumb before drawing the digit into his mouth and suckling lightly on it.
Hotch moaned and shifted in his seat, stopping at a stop light he looked over to Reid with lust filled eyes. "Spencer." Reid let Hotch's thumb slip from between his lips and licked the man's palm before nodding his head forward to point out the green light to Hotch who turned his attention back to the road with a shudder. Reid pulled his legs up to sit cross-legged in his seat and pulled apart the next slice of his orange before leaning over towards Hotch and letting his breath ghost over Hotch's neck, "You haven't eaten yet this morning either Aaron." Before Hotch could respond to that Reid reached over and traced the orange slice over Hotch's lips. When Hotch's lips parted Reid slid the orange into his mouth then pulled it back out slightly until Hotch gripped it lightly with his teeth and pulled it from Reid's fingers.
By time they parked at headquarters both oranges had been consumed and Reid was sniggering while Hotch was resting his head lightly against the back of his seat. "Want some help there Aaron?" Hotch let his head fall back forward to look at Reid with scolding eyes, "There are cameras in the garage Reid." Hotch's blank face brought a laugh from Reid as he opened his door and heard Hotch heave a sigh as the man got out of the other side. Reid waited for Hotch to walk around the car and they both headed for the elevator.
When the elevator doors closed Reid closed the slight distance between the two of them and pressed his body close to Hotch's. He could easily feel the results of his teasing in the car and he kissed Hotch lightly before pulling away just before the elevator started slowing. "Tease." The mumble from Hotch got him a wicked smirk from his agent as he left the elevator and quickly made his way to his desk. Hotch hissed and tried to look normal as he made his way up to his own office.
Morgan looked up at the strange entrance for the two of them and shrugged carelessly, he would get the story out of Reid later and now he was sure the two didn't want attention drawn to them. Reid was about to sit down at his desk when he noticed a package wrapped in gaudy pink paper was already in his chair. He opened the package cautiously and smiled when he found a bright red heart shaped mug that had the words, 'Some Coffee With my Sugar Please' painted around the surface in Garcia's most elegant scrawl. Morgan looked over having heard Reid unwrapping the item and laughed, "She really got you perfectly in that one Pretty Boy!" Reid nodded and got up with his mug to grab some coffee.
Reid came back to find Garcia sitting at his desk and Emily looking cautiously at her own wrapped box from Garcia. "Open it Prentiss, it can't be too bad." Prentiss was glaring at Morgan then hesitated slightly before digging into the red wrapping paper. Once she had opened the box she let out a soft gasp before reaching in and pulling out a serving plate that had a beautiful color combination around the outer edge that made her think of sunsets with a hazy purple line giving off the dusky look that completed it. "This is magnificent Garcia!" The technical analyst smiled brilliantly at Prentiss before noticing Reid's mug in his hand and jumping up to kiss him on the forehead.
Morgan looked up at Garcia, "You are making me wait for mine Baby Girl?" Garcia cackled evilly before darting out of the room and back to her own office, Morgan pouted which got him laughs from Reid and Prentiss before JJ came down the stairs eagerly. "I just saw Garcia leave, what was she up to today?" Prentiss showed the plate Garcia had made her to JJ and she easily noted Reid's new coffee mug and the two gifts brought an affectionate smile to JJ's face.
It was only a couple hours later when Reid looked down at the empty basket on his desk that was reserved for his paperwork. Maybe he should try Morgan's method of killing time that should be spent on paperwork playing Solitaire and he wouldn't finish so much earlier than he wanted. He got up and went to grab another mug of coffee before heading up the stairs towards Hotch's office.
He knocked softly on the door before opening it a little ways and slipping into the office. "Hey." Hotch looked up at Reid's voice and gave him a small smile, "Hey Spencer, what can I do for you?" Reid walked over and settled himself into the couch and Hotch sighed before getting up and walking over to the couch himself. Reid eyed Hotch as he walked over and was surprised when Hotch settled close to him even though the door was unlocked and the curtains weren't shut. Reid sighed when Hotch's leg pressed firmly against his own and he put his mug down on the table next to the couch before reaching a hand out tentatively to rest on Hotch's knee while his eyes darted towards the windows to quickly check on the locations of everyone.
There was a certain thrill to being this close to Hotch with the much higher chance of being seen. Reid slowly began massaging Hotch's knee before he moved his hand to massage Hotch's thigh while quickly checking the status outside the window again. Hotch moaned and shifted closer to Reid as the arousal that had been hovering just within his control since the car ride in rose like a pool of fire in his stomach. "Spencer you better be planning to finish what you are starting this time." Reid chuckled lightly and shifted closer so his warm breath caressed Hotch's ear as he let his voice roll with a slight purr, "And if I don't?" Hotch's glare was destroyed when Reid lightly traced his fingers over the cloth covering Hotch's straining erection causing Hotch to arch his hips into that slight stimulation while his eyes fluttered closed and a whine escaped him.
In the span of a second Reid's hand went from caressing his thighs teasingly to pushing at Hotch and causing him to open his eyes. "Hotch someone is coming." Hotch let out an annoyed growl and shifted to a decent distance away from his young agent. Moments later there was a knock on the door and Hotch realized that his state of arousal would be obvious if he stayed on the couch so he moved to the desk while Reid moved to open the door. Hotch sat behind his desk trying to calm his breathing and the pounding of his heart while he could see the slight shaking in Reid's hand as the boy reached for the handle of the door.
The moment Reid began turning the handle Garcia breezed in with the others close behind, following the technical analyst with amused expressions. Garcia bounced up to Hotch's desk and handed him a large present wrapped in white paper. Hotch leveled Garcia with an irritated glare letting the woman know exactly how much he appreciated her timing. She returned his glare with a sheepish smile. Hotch moved to unwrap the present with resignation, sliding his finger beneath the seam of the wrapping and easily pulling the paper off without a single tear.
He opened the box and was momentarily stunned before he smiled. Garcia had made him a cookie jar in the shape of a sitting bear wearing a suit and a top hat that came off to put the cookies into. Hotch ran his fingers over the jar with appreciation, the details were excellent and he could imagine catching both Reid and Jack trying to sneak into the jar for extra sweets during the day. Garcia was bouncing up and down on her toes, "I figured with Reid around it won't stay very full but it was just so perfect!" Reid glared gently with the hints of a smile twitching at the corners of his mouth while everyone else laughed at his expense.
Once Hotch had stopped admiring the bear Garcia handed Rossi a much smaller box which the man took much less care in opening. Inside Rossi uncovered a shot glass that was painted black with little white, pink, and red hearts painted onto it carefully. Rossi scowled at the thing. He enjoyed shot glasses, collected them actually, but he would never use this one where he might be seen. The other's chuckled heartily and Rossi shook his head before turning a wry smile onto Garcia with a slightly reluctant thank you.
After Rossi had vacated Prentiss asked Reid to go with her to lunch and he quickly agreed while shooting Hotch an apologetic look. They all vacated the office quickly and when they got back down to the bottom of the stairs they found Strauss standing by their desks looking at the plate resting on Prentiss's desk. "Can I help you ma'am?" Strauss looked up in slight surprise, not having noticed that they were coming back down while she snooped around their desks. "Is there any particular reason you were all just up in Agent Hotchner's office?" Prentiss huffed and grabbed up her handbag from her desk, "You ready to go Reid?" Quickly grabbing his messenger back Reid nodded and Prentiss didn't bother responding to Strauss's question as they left the bullpen for the elevator. Reid looked up in time to catch Hotch watching their departure and winked playfully up at the man after making sure Strauss wasn't looking.
Strauss turned to Morgan for the answer to her question and Morgan sighed realizing that it was his turn for interrogation. "Garcia was causing her mischief and we all went up to Hotch's office to bear witness." Strauss looked searchingly at him before motioning him to follow her and they headed for her office. Strauss quickly took up the more powerful position behind her desk and Morgan relaxed into the chair on the other side of the desk looking blankly at the woman for a moment.
"Let me be frank with you before you choose to speak. Our team works because we all trust each other to watch our backs. There is not a single person on my team that I would not trust with my life and just because we have some pressure from someone higher up in the line of command doesn't mean that any of us will give you false information just to give you a reason to split us apart." Strauss sat back in surprise at Morgan's blunt manner. True the others had been blunt as well but they had at least given the pretense of letting her ask her questions before they stated what they wanted to say.
It was not too much longer before Strauss came to the realization that she was wasting her time with Derek Morgan. Her last and only hope was going to be getting information out of Jereau which she somehow doubted would work either. "Well then if you are refusing to speak with me I cannot make you. I will let you get back to your work Agent Morgan." Morgan rolled his eyes and stood and not bothering with the parting shot that he was itching to say he quickly left the room and made his way to meet up with Hotch, Rossi, JJ, and Garcia.
An hour after everyone had gotten back from their lunch break Garcia bounced into the bullpen and smiled at everyone before leading them all up to JJ's office. Hotch and Rossi had expected something like that and kept their eyes out for her through their windows and proceeded to JJ's office to see what the young woman was getting themselves. Garcia handed JJ a brightly wrapped package that was quickly opened to reveal another cookie jar.
JJ's cookie jar was in the shape of a puppy that had a cookie hanging out of its mouth and was looking upwards with large pleading eyes. It was the perfect begging expression for any dog and the group laughed at the aptness of it. The dog had a coat like a collies and it's eyes were a brown color and they managed to look big and sorrowful causing everyone to greatly appreciate the piece. "Thank you Garcia, this is absolutely lovely!" Garcia smiled at JJ before grabbing the last present and handing it to Morgan.
Morgan tore into his package and pulled out a coffee mug in the shape of a fire hydrant. Everyone stared at the creation for a few moments before Rossi spoke up, "Why a fire hydrant?" Garcia's bubbling laughter sprung forth as she responded, "Because Morgan is such a dog!" Everyone cracked up at that and even Morgan couldn't find a way to take offense, he merely smiled unapologetically at Garcia and this brought more laughter from the group.
At around five Hotch came out of his office and locked up carrying all of his things with him and descended the stairs. "You ready to head out for the night Reid?" He got surprised stares from everyone and Reid nodded dazedly before quickly gathering his things and following Hotch from the bullpen. Once they were in the car again Reid reached out and twined his fingers with the hand on the gear shift. "You have kept me in a right state all day Spencer."
Reid smiled slightly, "It really was not my intention and I had actually planned on not just teasing you up in your office."Hotch glanced at Reid out of the corner of his eye and smiled softly when the boy looked completely sincere. "In the car this morning?" Reid laughed lowly and Hotch shifted as the sound coming from his little lover got an instant reaction from him. "I didn't start that Aaron, it's not my fault you were staring at me and decided to see me pealing an orange as sexual."
Hotch made a sound that was neither agreement nor denial and pulled up to Reid's apartment. They made it up to the door to the apartment with no incidents like the day before and Hotch opened it quickly. Reid took the new cookie jar and his mug into the kitchen and placed his mug in the sink while the cookie jar went onto the counter. He was about to start making dinner when Hotch grabbed him around the waist and pulled him back against the sturdy chest of his older lover. Reid let out a soft gasp when Hotch ground his pelvis against him, "I have been wanting and waiting for you all day Spencer, we can get dinner later."
Reid leaned back against Hotch and nodded stumbling slightly when Hotch immediately began pulling him towards the bedroom by the waist. Once they entered the room Hotch made quick work of taking off both of their clothes before pulling Reid against him once more. Reid groaned at the feeling of Hotch's body pressed firmly against his own and squirmed slightly in an attempt to get even closer.
Hotch gripped Reid's chin gently and tilted Reid's head to the side before his lips descended on his subordinate's neck. Reid whimpered and reached up with his arm to grasp Hotch's hair lightly as he interlaced the fingers of his other hand with the one Hotch still had resting on his hip. "Aaron, I want to feel you. I want to feel your passion." Hotch groaned and bit Reid's neck lightly before letting go of him. "On your back on the bed Spencer." Reid nodded and slid onto the bed and positioned himself on his back in the center of the bed.
Hotch reached into Reid's bedside table drawer and came out with the lube and Reid's collar. Reid propped himself up on his elbows and sighed when the cool leather of the collar slid around his neck and Hotch tightened it to just the right notch. "I love you Spencer and I am never going to let you go." Reid smiled shyly up at his lover as all of the emotions from that morning crashed back into him. "I believe you Aaron."
Hotch smiled softly and he kissed Reid's forehead then his eyelids before sliding his lips down the straight nose and kissing along Reid's left cheekbone. He moved down Reid's jaw and back up the other side and inwards along the other cheekbone before finally capturing Reid's lips with his own. Reid's tongue slipped out to meet Hotch's and they both let out a groan as their tongues tangled together, massaging each other erotically in open mouthed kisses.
When breathing became all too necessary Hotch continued his path down Reid's neck and kissed along the top line of the collar and then the bottom edge before moving to Reid's collar bones. Reid sighed with pleasure as Hotch continued with his slow journey down Reid's body and he let out a cry when Hotch nipped at one of his nipples. He felt so right when he was with Hotch and he knew that he would never feel the same about another.
Reid was melting underneath Hotch's ministrations to his body and his hands slid into Hotch's hair as the man moved lower. His breathing became labored as Hotch suckled at and marked one of his prominent hip bones while a large hand massaged the other one. Reid arched into the sensations and let out a high pitched whine, "Aaron, I need you. Please." Hotch smiled slightly and uncapped the lube he had grabbed earlier thoroughly coating his fingers.
As Hotch slipped one finger into Reid's body he took the boy's erection into his mouth causing Reid to cry out. Reid pushed back onto the finger then arched up into Hotch's mouth picking up the natural pace of their normal love making which brought a groan of approval from Hotch that shot directly down Reid's length. "Gosh Aaron, need more." Hotch slid a second finger into him and began putting pressure on the muscles, widening them and pressing them open comfortably. When Hotch's third finger slid in he took Reid's length all the way down his throat bringing a scream from his younger lover. Reid squirmed and hissed out as Hotch pressed those fingers against his prostate and suckled him as the man hummed tunelessly on Reid's cock. Hotch was only satisfied when Reid's hot seed filled his mouth and rushed down his throat.
He removed his fingers and slicked up his cock, sliding slowly into Reid's trembling body. Reid cried out with overstimulation since he hadn't fully descended from the last high but Hotch ignored that, setting a smooth and steady pace of his movements. Reid leaned up and Hotch captured his lips in just as passionate of a meeting as the joining of their bodies.
Reid slowly began lifting his hips into Hotch's movements as the high sensation that made the thrusts too much began wearing off and he was able to focus more closely on the here and now. "Gosh Aaron, so full and deep. You feel so good in me." Hotch smiled softly and trailed kisses along Reid's neck again where he could reach, maintaining the slow rhythm that was pressing lightly to Reid's prostate with each thrust.
Reid leaned up again and nipped lightly at Hotch's chin, "Aaron, faster, please." Hotch smiled and shook his head, "No Spencer, I want you to build up slowly." Reid leaned back with a sigh and hooked his legs around Hotch's own. Hotch's rhythm would pick up at intervals and it kept Reid on his toes from sensations. He began babbling coherently as he was continuously filled by Hotch with a reassuring slowness that felt of forever.
That rapturous moment was creeping steadily up onto both of them and sweat was dripping from their bodies in the exertion of constant movement between their bodies. "Please Aaron, so ready." Hotch chuckled slightly against Reid's neck where he licked away trails of sweat, "You ready to let go for me Kitten?" Reid nodded wordlessly as he sobbed for breaths in his pleasure. Hotch was overwhelming him with his continuous gentle strokes.
Suddenly Hotch withdrew and slid a pillow beneath Reid's hips before forcing himself back into his young lover's body in one swift thrust bringing a cry of ecstasy from Reid. Hotch set a steady and punishing rhythm to his thrusts and Reid was shaking his head back and forth while his fingernails dug into Hotch's biceps. "Please Aaron, so close." Hotch leaned in and suckled on Reid's earlobe, "Let go Kitten." With that command Reid let his pleasure wash over him and he came with a desperate cry and Hotch came deep within him.
Hotch rolled them over so Reid was lying on top of him and his spent member was still nestled snugly in Reid's body. "I am always here Spencer and that will never change." Reid nuzzled his face against Hotch's neck, "Promise?" Hotch smiled softly and kissed the top of Reid's head over sweaty curls, "I swear it." Reid's happy smile meant the world to Hotch as the boy looked up at him trustingly. "Good."
