April 30, 2013 at Richmond, Virginia in Spencer's Pov-
It was early evening and Daphine was cooking dinner tonight. We just came back from groccery shopping a while ago so we would have a full fridge and freezer. I was on the floor playing with Bella. We were on a rug with ger toys. Right now I was playing with her toes since she was ticklish on her feet. She was laughing.
Me: And this little piggy went to market...and this little piggy stayed home...This little piggy had roast beef...and this little piggy had none...and this little piggy cried "We-we-we" all the way home.
She giggled more and I picked her up into my arms and passed her, her wooden toy train. She rolled it on my legs.
Me: Hey I'm not the track.
All she did was laugh at me and began to crawl out of my arms and to my feet. I really regreat taking off my shoes. I was wearing one blue pirate sock and a red santa sock. I know I'm werid. She began to play with my feet and toes too.
Me: Hey no fair.
She pinched all five of my toes on my right foot.
Me: Ok. I surender. You win.
She looked at me and crawled back to my face and patted my cheek.
Bella: Daddy?
I smiled ang hugged her. I loved hearing her say that.
Me: I'm ok Bella. Don't worry ok? I'm here and not going anywhere.
She gave me a squeeze as I got up and went to the kitchen to check up on her mother. I saw her at the stove wearing her apron.
Me: Hey Daphine.
She turned to me and smiled.
Daphine: Hey Spence. Is everything ok?
Me: Yeah. I was just checking up on you.
Daphine: Well thanks. Did she grow tired yet?
Me: Nope. Still has a lot of enery to burn for a 16 month old toddler.
She looked at her and waved.
Bella: Hi momma.
Daphine smiled and walked to us and kissed her cheek.
Daphine: Hi baby. Are you having fun with daddy?
She then patted my chest and I kissed her forehead.
Daphine: Dinner should b ready in a minute. Would you mind putting her in her chair?
Me: Sure.
So I did and I sat down at the table. Daphine just finished cooking and setting it up so we can eat. I gave Bella her dinner and Daphine gave me mine. After we at we watched Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs so Bella could fall asleep. After she did Daphine put her to bed and we change for bed. After that we just layed down until I just remembered something.
Me: Daphine don't go to sleep yet I forgot something.
Daphine: What is it?
I turned over and reached into the drawer and grabbed somethine from it and closed it back. I turned back to Daphine and opened my hand. It was Daphine's wedding ring.
Daphine: My ring! I forgot all about it.
I put in her finger.
Me: Please don't take this off again.
Daphine: Sure.
I held her in my arms and I kissed her goodnight and fell asleep.
May 8, 2013 at the BAU in Daphine's Pov-
We dropped Bella off at my brother's and now for once I was walking with Spencer to work. We were at the bull pen when Derek just came off the elevator.
Derek: Hey Pretty Boy. Oh and hello Pretty Girl.
Me: Hi Derek.
Derek: Where's Mini Reid?
Spencer: With my brother in law.
Derek: It feels good to see again on good terms. This is good right?
Me: Yep. Since I don't have to be in till later I thought I would walk my husband to work for once.
Then I saw JJ and Alex come in.
JJ: Hey girl. How are you?
Me: I'm good. I was just having my last moments with my Einstein before he goes off into another adventure.
To be honest this is the first time I've called him Einstein since before the whole Maeve/Diane fiasco.
Spencer: And I will miss you every second my Calypso.
It felt good to hear that name again. It felt right. I looked at the time and it was 15 minutes til nine.
Me: Well its been fun but I have to get going.
Spencer: Alright. Be careful.
Me: You too.
I then kissed him goodbye and I left to go to the hospital for work.
May 11, 2013 at Richmond, Virginia in Daphine's Pov-
Spencer was out with the men of the BAU tonight so I was home watching tv with Bella. I needed to talk to someone so I picked up both my house and cell phones and seached through my numbers until I found the right one. I dialed it through the house phone. It than rang. At the third ring the person picked it up.
?: Reid? I thought you were out with the boys. What are you doing home?
Me: Hi Alex its the female Dr. Reid.
Alex: Daphine? Hi how are you?
Me: Good. I was alone in the house and since we haven't spoken very much I thought this was the perfect time to get to know each other better if you're not busy.
Alex: Sure. Where's Bella?
Me: In my lap watching Sofia the First.
Alex: Aw.
Me: I know. She likes it. So first off tell me about yourself.
Alex: Well I am a proffesor in forensic linguistics to students that are apparently is just as smart as the male Dr. Reid and we met by him being a guest lecturer sometimes.
Me: He metioned that once. I didn't know that was you.
Alex: Same way for you because when one of my students last year asked him is his job tough to have when it comes to family. You know what he said?
Me: What?
Alex: He said "Yes it is hard. Very hard. Even if it is in the same city. You have to be a dedicated person to juggle that much in your life. I know this because I have a fiancee at home that is waiting for me to make sure I get back to her safely for not only her but for our unborn child. I do this job to protect my family. Actually if it wasn't for the job I wouldn't have a family in the first place." Everyone chuckled at the comment.
I smiled at it.
Me: Really?
Alex: Yeah. I totally forgot about that until Garcia mentioned Bella when she and Morgan came back.
Me: Wow. So what was it like for you in your life?
Alex: Well for me I guess normal for a bright and intelegent girl my parents told me. I graduated from Berkeley and joined the Bureau at age 24.
Me: Wow. Was it exciting?
Alex: Honey when I was young everything was exciting to me but I acted professional as well in front of my peers and supierors. After a few years I got married the most awesome husband ever but he is overseas so we skype everyday.
Me: Aw. Is he good looking?
Alex: Very.
Me: Ok. Someday I must meet him.
Alex: I'll hold you up to that.
Me: Yeah.
Alex: Tell me about you.
Me: Ok. I was born in Virginia as a military brat with my older brother Aiden. Our father and uncle trained us how to protect ourselves. Aiden went on to be a marine while I studied to be a doctor. When it was my 18th birthday Aiden took me out skating for my birthday. A party was set up organized by our friends. While I was skating toword the mini bar a guy bumped into me.
Alex: Who was it?
Me: Spencer. It was his birthday too and he was trying to leave someon else's birthday party which coincidentally was mine. Aiden's friend Ethan dragged him out here to have fun. After which it was like love at first sight. We hung out all night and never saw each other until 7 years later when he got shot during a case and I was his doctor and physical theripist.
Alex: I thought you were a pediatrion?
Me: I'm a pediatrion, an adult doctor, physical theripist and as of last month a full time surgen.
Alex: Wow. That is amazing.
Me: Thank you. I have a lot of professions. That's why the hospital names me the "Queen or Mother of All Things Medical". Also the best doctor in the state according to inspectors.
Alex: Wow. That is a lot to take in, in one's life.
Me: Trust me it was. But its worth it.
Alex: I'm glad we got to have this talk.
Me: Me too. What kind of coffee you drink?
Alex: Oh that is a language I can speak.
Then we talked late into the night and hung up around 11:30. By then Bella was already in bed and so was I. I changed and went to sleep as soon as I heard the door open.
