This is the last chapter of 2020 for this story. Read you in January 2021.

Chapter 20: Our little moments

October arrived and it was Spencer's favorito month of the year so he was happy he would enjoy it all thanks to this deal with the FBI.

The month started with the news that they wanted some classes at the academy for new students who wanted to learn how to profile.

It could be a short period during the week and on weekends he would have his seminaries at universities.

So after classes he met with Max for lunch and they went to his apartment or hers to keep working on his classes.

On Saturday they watched movies at her dad's house and have a conversation about the movie like a club.

Sammy loved it and wanted to learn more. Which make Dom very happy about it.

One Saturday Spencer saved it to teach Max's co-workers to know how to act in a shooting. He even recommend to her that she could do something special for Halloween.

She could help her students to do their costumes with boxes and painting them. Later they could modeling them for their parents.

She loved it and does it. All kids where happy and did it with enthusiasm. She was a pretty creative person but she never found good ideas for this month.

"Spence?" She said in a whisper while they were cuddling on his couch.

"Yes?"

"Why do you enjoy Halloween so much? Because you are a very logical person and who doesn't believe in things that aren't very scientific"

"Well... It started when I was younger. My mom was having troubles with the schizophrenia. I even have to learn how to cook and how to drive in order to take care of us" she looked up at him "she wasn't mentally there must of the time but when she was ok she and I watched horror movies because she wanted me to not be afraid of dracula or ghost and my brain connect happiness and a mom- son moments with her"

"So you enjoy Halloween because it reminds you to your happy memories with your mom"

"Yes. It's the same effect that serial killers have after their first murder" he looked at her and blushed when he saw her raising an eyebrow and smirking "it's a phycologist thing..."

"Ok I'll stop you right there before this goes from cute to creepy" they laughed "by the way tomorrow is my student Fashion show and I would love if you can go" she bit her lip "it's after your class"

"I would be honored to be there" she smiles and kisses him.

The next day he dressed with his best suit and went to his class at the academy. He used what he talked to Max the night before but turning the situation into a serial killer example so the students could profile it. There were some good profilers for the team.

At the end of the class most of the students did the exercise correctly so the rest will have to finish it at home.

He left the academy and went to her school to watch the show. The kids made some really good costumes with boxes and he could see their parents so proud. He had never been in that kind of situations before but it felt so nice to see their joy and the proud in their eyes watching an eight year old modeling something he made without their help.

He just saw parents after getting their kids back from hostage situations or after been kidnapped but this was so different and satisfying. Making him realized how much he wanted to be part of that group one day.

He just felt it when he had Henry in his arms or after talking with Emily about his future or not been able to fulfill his own expectations.

After the show ended he went to see Max in the backstage and some kids walked to him.

"Are you Miss Brenner's boyfriend?" Asked one of her first graders. Spencer nodded and leaned on one knee to see him face to face.

"You make her smiley" said another little girl "so don't hurt her, please?"

"Or we will kick your ass" said an older kid.

"Michael!" Said Max from behind.

"Sorry Miss Brenner" he looked down.

"Alright kids. Go to the dressing room to get your costumes and backpacks. See you next week" they nodded and left after looking again at Spencer. Max kissed him softly "sorry. They know about Mike..."

"It's ok and adorable. I never thought I would be threatened by a ten year old kid" they laughed "but I'm glad to hear that you smile more" she blushed and hit him softly.

Then they turned and saw her students smirking at them "what are you looking at? Go with your parents" they laughed and left. Spencer was laughing too "and you sir stop laughing" she said with a smile "by the way the older kids will do this next year because they loved this. I hope Miss McGinty doesn't hate me to much"

He laughed "she's the older art teacher?" She nodded "then she will"

"Ha...ha...ha... Very funny Doctor Reid" they laughed more "now let's go. It's almost lunch and I'm starving"

They left and ate at her favorite place then visited her dad where Sammy was and he asked Spencer to go with him and aunty Max to treat or trick on Halloween night. He will be Darth Vader. And of course he accepted.

On October thirty-first they went out with some of his friends around the neighborhood. Sammy was Kylo Ren, Max was Leia, some of his friends were Rey, other was Han and another was Luke.

They had fun and at the end of the night Spencer did some magic tricks while they ate pizza.

At the end the kids started to call him Uncle Spencer and he was ok with it.

November was least relaxed but he and Max found time to have some moments together. They even got everything ready for the next month to go to the wedding of his friend in New Orleans.

The hotel would be provided by his friend so they just need to buy the fight tickets and she wanted some tours.

They found a present for the couple so when December arrives they would be ready.

OOooOOooOO

I had this on my mind for a while but couldn't find a good way to write it. This was a fast forward chapter so we can reach to 2018 when Linda Barnes appears.

And I was thinking about making Max one of the people telling Spencer to fight for the team or even change a little bit his conversation with Emily so she could be there.

What do you think?
