Chapter 5: Chapter Five

Chapter Text

As soon as David gets home and sits down, Spencer assumes he's better. He's back home after all! Spencer crawls in his lap, making David wince. Aaron sees and knew David won't stop him and Spencer wouldn't notice. Aaron picks Spencer up, making Spencer angry. "Daddy! I want to sit with Papa! I don't want you right now," he sequels.

Aaron heart brakes a little hearing Spencer say that. "Spencer, that's very mean to say and hurt my feelings very much," Aaron says.

Spencer looks at his daddy with puppy dog eyes. He kissing his dad's cheek and giving him a hug. "Daddy, I love you very much, but I missed Papa a lot and want to be with him right now," Spencer tells him in the same tone David uses when he leaves for a case.

Aaron kisses his head. "I know bubba, but you also accidentally hurt Papa," Aaron explains. Spencer looks at him sad and horrified.

"I'm sorry Papa! I don't want you to go back to the hospital," Spencer says, looking at David. They almost laugh, until they see is Spencer is crying.

Emily comes in and sees Spencer crying. "What's wrong Spencer?" she asks. He hides his face into Aaron's shoulder. Emily looks at their dad for help. Aaron moves slowly and hums for him. He mouths "Nap Time" to Emily which makes her nod in understanding.

Spencer's cries start to softens and he starts to nod off. Aaron slowly walks to his and David's room. He curls up with Spencer in bed and starts to fall asleep with him.

"I love you, Daddy."

Aaron smiles. "I love you, too, bubba."

Aaron wakes up with everyone (sort of) fitting in the bed. Aaron on one side with Spencer, Emily, JJ, Derek, and Penelope (in that order) in the middle and David at the other end.

He smiles, watching everyone. Suddenly, he here's a ringing in another room. He knows if he gets up he could wake someone, so he just lets it go to voice male. It turns out to be one of David's teammates, wishing him well.

Emily, whose like a cat, wakes up during the end of the message. "Dad, who called Papa?" she whispers.

"It was one of his close friend making sure he's okay," Aaron whispers back. She nods before falling back asleep.
