Thanks cooey95 and rainbowlover25 for the reviews, I really appreciate it. I don't like strauss much but I think that if she wanted to she could be a...nice person. And thanks for the "votes" on gender any more opinions? Suggestions are still standing. Enjoy.

"Erin I will not allow you to destroy my team," Hotch said firmly.

"It's not what I intend Aaron," she sighs.

"Then why exactly did you accompany us?" Hotch asks.

"I wanted to see how capable they are," Strauss says.

"What?"

"I, like you, am worried for your team's stability," She answers.

"I don't follow," Hotch says.

"Spencer Reid is like a son to you and I understand you worry for him and Derek Morgan is a good friend as well but Dr. Reid is in a…special situation," she continues.

"I understand," he replies with a nod.

"I saw how upset he was when we first met and he confided in me his…secret. I saw the look of disappointment when Agent Morgan announced IT was a mistake," She sighs again.

"Are you saying you were worried?" Hotch questions shocked.

"In a way yes. When Morgan came to see me that he was proposing to the young genius I wanted to see how genuine he really was. David did make the rules and he did apply them to everyone that BAU team members should not date," Strauss explained.

"So you only went to see how this affected their work?"

"Exactly and I must say I was impressed. They acted well beyond professional," she gave an attentive smile.

"No one will be fired or transferred?"

"No…for now that is," she says and closes the door to her office.

Hotch sighs relieved that it was just a trail and not anything serious. He explained to the team what had happened and they all stood quiet surprised and shocked like he was at first. They laughed at Garcia's comment lightening the mood.

"She actually has a heart," Garcia said.

"Barely," Rossi added.

They all laughed and enjoyed their company.

"So Spence…thinking about having a baby shower?" JJ asked.

"No," he quickly said.

"Why not?" Garcia pouted.

"I hate being the center of attention," he whined.

"Come on pretty boy it's can't be that bad," Derek chuckled hugging him from behind.

"When Garcia and the girls are in charge it's a horrifying thought," Spencer replied leaning into the touch.

"Well too bad," Garcia smiled.

"Help me," Spencer sighed.

"We love you too," JJ joked.

"Can we go home? Being pregnant isn't exactly forgiving," he said.

"Alright, thanks Hotch and see you guys Monday," Derek waved.

"Spencer…I think we have to talk," Derek said in the elevator.

"…Talk?" Spencer asked.

"We have to go to Chicago," he said sternly.

"Why?" Spencer cocked his head to the side.

"It's time you met my family," Derek said.

"I already know them," Spencer said.

"I…talked to my mom and she'd like to see you," Derek replied.

"…Umm she knows that I'm well…pregnant?" Spencer asks gulping.

"Yes…does your mom know?" Derek asks.

"…Yes, I write to her every day," Spencer informs.

"Well after we meet my family we can go see your mom," Derek offers.

"…What if she isn't lucid?" Spencer asks.

"How did she take it when you told her?"

"She was happy," he smiles remembering the thought.

"Does she know that you are the one who's-"

"Yes she knows," Spencer cuts him off.

"You're still mad at me huh?" Derek notes.

"You could've died," Spencer averts his eyes.

"I know and I apologized the whole way back to Quantico," Derek sighs.

"…I'm hungry," Spencer changes topics.

"Spence," Derek begins.

Spencer flicks Derek's shoulder with his fingers. Derek yelps in pain and glares at his lover.

"That's where I got shot," Derek whimpers.

"Yeah and also where you were stitched without anesthetics and where you wouldn't have gotten shot if you weren't an idiot," Spencer laughs.

"I guess I deserved that…you were scared and I betrayed your trust," Derek whispers.

"And you also broke your promise," Spencer looks at him.

"Will you forgive me?"

"Couch…for a week then maybe I'll consider it," Spencer replies.

"…You're going to get cold," Derek warned.

"And when I do I'll pull a blanket and sink into the comfortable warmth of the bed," Spencer says walking out of the opened elevator.

"You're just trying to make me jealous," Derek smiles.

"At least you're not pregnant," Spencer smiles back.

"Imagine if they were twins," Derek rubs his belly.

"God no," Spencer shrieks.

"No twins got it," Derek chuckles.

"…Not now that's for sure," Spencer whispers.

Derek stops walking and stares at the young man. Spencer turns around and smiles waiting patiently by their car.
