I do not own Harry Potter or Criminal Minds.

"Good night James. Mummy loves you" Ginny kissed her 17 month old son as she laid him down in his crib. She walked out of his room and quietly closed the door behind her. She made her way down to the kitchen to make a cup of tea.

Ginny knew Harry was going to try to get Hermione to go to the Leaky Cauldron tonight after work so she did not know if she should expect to see her husband soon or not.

She had just sat down with her cup of tea when the floo opened and her husband walked into the room.

"She did not go I take it?" Ginny said as she sipped her tea.

"No she told me she had too much left on the werewolf protection act to complete." Harry said as he kissed his wife on her head and walked over to the stove where his dinner was waiting. "She has been back for 10 months now. She never goes out, or comes over. The only time I see her is when I come into the Magical law offices. I am worried about her Gin. Anytime I bring up her time in America she either changes the subject or walks away. I want my best friend back."

"She misses him Harry. Spencer was to her like you are to me. Sh left America because it was too painful to see him everyday knowing that she could never have him because he was mad at her. But she still loves him and I think if it ever came down to it she would leave everything for him again."

"I just wish I could help her." Harry said as he pushed the plate of food away from him. Suddenly he was not so hungry anymore.

"I know. So do I" Ginny said.

Just then there was a tapping on the kitchen window.

"Iisn't that Ophelia?" asked Ginny as Harry opened the window to let the large owl fly in.

"Yeah, and she had a message addressed to me." Harry said bewildered. He had helped Hermione pick out this owl for her team as a way of contacting her after she left. They would have no reason to be writing him

"Well open it!" Ginny said as she leaned over her husband's shoulder to read the letter.

"It is from the team at the BAU. They have an idea." Harry said a smile spreading on his face as he read the letter. This might just work.

Harry rushed into Hermione's office the next morning. He had already talked to Kingsley and was now on a time crunch to get to Hermione. He calmed his breathing as he entered her office.

"Mione" he called as he threw open the door to her office "We need you to come out with us. We just got a report of a werewolf who is being discriminated against over in Dorset and they are demanding that you come."

"Oh alright Harry" Hermione grabbed her jacket from the back of her chair. "Are we apparating there?"

"No we are taking a portkey" He said as he held out a small kids shoe.

Hermione placed a hand on the shoe and felt the pull around her naval.

When she landed she took a look around. This was not Dorset. She was back in Quantico at the spot where her and Spencer had spent their first date looking up at the stars. Hermione looked around for Harry, but she could not see him. However next to her was a letter. Hermione picked it up and read it.

MIONE

I am sorry for tricking you like this. But for the past 10 months I have seen my best friend become a shell. I can't stand it anymore.

I am sorry I could not help you any other way. I have placed an anti-apparation ward around the area. I am nearby to release it when you are done.

Please Mione, listen to him and remember I will always love you no matter what

Harry

Hermione looked at the paper in disbelief "Listen to who?" she said out loud.

"To me"

Hermione spun around and saw Spencer standing there. "Spencer" she gasped

"Hermione I am so sorry for how I acted. I should have understood why you did not tell me. I don't let people get close to me for the same reasons. And you trusted me and I proved your worst fears right. I am so sorry. I don't think I can say it enough."

"Spencer-"

But Spencer went on. "I treated you horribly. I walked away from you. I hurt the one person I would never want to hurt. And even after all that you still were willing to sacrifice your life to save mine"

"They shouldn't have told you that." Hermione said looking down.

Spencer took another step closer to her. "Yes they should have. Hermione you are the most selfless person I know. You gave up your childhood to protect Harry, you gave up your parents to save their life, you give up your job with the BAU because I was being stupid and you almost gave up your life to save mine. Hermione I love you more then anything in the world and if you give me the chance I will spend the rest of my life trying to make up for these past 10 months"

Spencer reached into his pocket and pulled out the ring he had been carrying ever since Hermione had left the BAU.

"I bought this for you before Christmas. I was going to give it to you in the book I left. It says eternal love. Please Hemione let me make this up to you. Please marry me."

Hermione looked at the ring in Spencer's hand. She thought of her life that she had been living the past 10 months. She had taken the job at the Ministry and was doing the things people had expected her to do, but she was not happy. She cloistered herself in her office and her flat. She never went out or saw her friends.

As she looked at Spencer she felt her heart tug. She was never as happy as she was when he was around and they were together. He was romantic, kind, intelligent and challenged her on a daily basis. Now she knew what Harry's letter meant.

She looked at Spencer "Spencer I never stopped loving you. Yes I will marry you." She said.

Spencer slid the ring onto her finger and caressed her cheek. He pulled her face close for a kiss. He insisted the kiss as he tightened his arms around her waist and spun her around laughing as they broke their kiss.

A few feet away in the tree line the members of the BAU and Harry watched the couple.

"Oh she said yes!" Penelope said quietly as to not interrupt the newly reunited and engaged couple.

Harry pulled out his wand and undid the wards he had placed around the field.

"Wanna start taking bets on if their kids end up taking over the world or not Harry?" Morgan asked with a laugh

Harry laughed "That's a suckers bet. With those two anything is possible."
