The team didn't have to wait that long, Austin and Reid came out in ten minutes. They were dressed but Reid's hair was still messed up and Austin looked like she had one of Reid's shirts on. They could also see that Austin has a ring on her left hand.
The J.J. couldn't help but smile as Garcia and Emily giggled. Morgan's smile was the biggest out of all of theirs and said, "My man," while he shook his friends hand.
Hotch and Rossi were in the background just smiling. Finally after fifteen minutes of talking Hotch stepped forward, "Ok, sorry to break up the family reunion, but we need to go to the station and talk about some things."
"Ok," Reid looked back at Austin, wanting to know if she wanted to come with them.
"Don't worry; I need to do some cleaning in here." She said coughing a little to hide her embarrassment.
"Oh, ok, call me if you need some help." Reid said not sure if he should leave her alone.
"Don't worry Spencer; we're going to help her clean the house." Lance said lightly pushing everyone out the door with the help of his brother.
They made it to the police station in less time then Reid anticipated. No one had talked on the ride over and that was making him nervous.
Once they got there they all went into a private office. Before anyone could sit down Morgan folded his arms and asked, almost demanding, "So where have you been, kid?"
"I've been here." Reid said trying to explain to them.
"Why didn't you contact us?" J.J. butted in looking like she had been betrayed.
"I didn't know you were looking for me." Reid tried again.
"How could you not know?" Emily asked frustrated.
"Because I lost my memory!" Reid finally yelled to the room at large.
"I thought Austin was pulling our chain, just like everyone else has been doing for the past twenty four hours." Morgan said trying to wrap his mind around Reid, genius boy, could lose his memory.
"No, she was telling the truth. I made up the prank to make sure that I didn't make up the memories." He said the last part looking away from everyone.
They stayed in the room for over two hours catching up on everything, Reid wanting to know about the cases, the team wanting to know about how his job and Austin. "Well, we're glad to have you back on the team." Hotch said giving him his gun and badge back.
"I have to talk to Austin before I make anything final Hotch," Reid looked down, he had to force himself not to reach out and grab his belongings.
He walked out the door and got one of the deputy's to drive him home. When he walked inside, he was amazed; there were boxes everywhere. All the rooms were bare. He finally found Austin by herself in the back room packing up the last of their belongings.
"Are you sure about this Austin?" Reid asked, when he saw the boxes he knew what she was planning. "Virginia is totally different then Atlanta Georgia."
"You love being a profiler; I can see it in your eyes." Austin said taking Reid's face in her hands and kissing him. "I love you, and we will make this work, one way or another, it will work out. Anyways I'm getting tired of the scenery here."
"I'm going to be gone a lot, and I won't be able to tell you everything that goes on at my job." Reid said, wanting to make sure that this was what she wanted.
"I was tired of seeing you everyday anyways, and as long as you come home in one piece, you don't have to tell me all the gruesome details."
Reid picked her up and spun her around laughter in his eyes, as he kissed her. "Where's Lance and Kevin?"
"They went up to the club to turn in their two week's notice and to help train new bouncers. Austin said, her smile growing bigger. "Apparently Carl says that the guys that he has are bigger and stronger then the 'Hale brothers'."
He dialed Hotch's number who put him on speaker phone. "Hotch, when does the flight leave and do you have room for one more?"
Hotch smiled, "We'll meet you there." And he hung up and they all walked out of the police station with a new spring in their step. They got their genius back.
