As for the kids Calling JJ Jennifer. JJ at least in my mind loves Spencer so much and lets him call her Jennifer so as an extension loves the kids enough to let them do the same. They are a part of her best friend and they don't call her Jennifer often as you can tell. They grew up hearing Spencer call her Jenifer and JJ so they do it


Spencer took the elevator to the BAU, his hands stuffed into his pants pocket uncomfortably, watching the numbers change as he passed each floor. He had no idea what was going on with Owen or what JJ was hinting at but he was going to find out. As soon as the elevator opened, he headed towards the BAU, opening the two glass doors and walked at JJ quickly who he saw sitting at her desk. She was working on her computer but stopped as he approached her.

"JJ what the hell is going on? Where is my son?"

"You should sit down."

Reid shook his head, taking his hands out of his pockets and crossed his arms.

"I was with Owen earlier and he was upset. He didn't eat his breakfast this morning and seemed detached. When he got into my car I asked him a few questions and he told me he felt like you didn't love him anymore and that you forgot about him."

'So what you are telling me is you profiled my kid."

"Spence It's not like that. I could tell something was wrong and I-"

"Save it Jennifer don't think you understand what's going on."

"Spence, I am telling you what your son told me. Your child feels left out and forgotten. "

"Thanks for letting me know JJ. I have to go get Owen and bring him to school. Where is my kid?"

JJ pointed to where she had put Owen down again after he fell asleep. Reid bent down and watched Owen sleep for a second before he lightly transferred Owen from the couch to his arms, trying hard not to wake him. Owen shuffled around a little bit but settled his head on his dad's shoulder. Spencer took Owen to his car and buckled him into his car seat.

A few years ago Reid sold his Volvo and bought a Tesla Model 3. It was better for the environment and it was more reliable for the kids. A lot of things had changed when he became a father and sometimes he wonders if JJ remembers that. He's not the same person he was when he joined the BAU, or when he went to jail. Now, He had to worry about not only Olivia, who had this experience of being taken from her family. Also Owen who is not acting like himself.

Glancing back at Owen's car seat Reid saw Cat. He had her nose and her jawline, which threw him for a second before reminding himself whose kid Owen actually was. Owen startled awake a few minutes later, he looked around recognizing his dad's car.

"Daddy?"

"Hey Owen, I was about to bring you home."

"Daddy I want to go to school, said yesterday we will have a party this afternoon."

"Are you sure bud? It's 10:30 and you've been asleep all morning. I figured you were tired or not feeling well."

"No daddy I want to go to school! Mrs. Lynch promised us we would watch Inside out."

"Okay bud, we will go to school then"

Reid headed towards Owen and Olivia's school, turning on some of Owen's favorite music and looked into his rearview mirror to see his little head bobbing up and down and his little voice singing along, messing up the lyrics. Spencer turned onto the road where the kids' school was and Owen's face changed. He went from normal to visibly excited. The one thing the twins enjoyed was learning. They were already ahead of their classmates, knowing how to read and write. They were talking about the twins skipping a grade. Reid was holding off on testing the twins' IQ till they were around 7 or 8. IQ testing wasn't really accurate till the kids were at least 7.

Reid parked the car and turned around looking at Owen.

"Hey Wen, I'm sorry that you feel like I haven't been there for you lately. I have been making sure Olivia was okay and thought you were okay. I'm sorry I didn't realize you were hurting too."

"Daddy, I am okay. I just worry about Olivia. I sit outside her room, and make sure nobody comes in." Reid sighed. He turned around and unbuckled Owen from his car seat.

"Come here." Owen climbed over the seat and sat in the passenger side.

"Owen Derek, it is not your job to protect your sister. It's mine. What I need you to do, is to sleep eat and go to school and be a kid. Okay?"

Owen didn't respond. He just looked at his feet. Spencer took Owen's hands in his and Owen snapped himself back into the conversation.

"Okay daddy"

"Why didn't you eat breakfast this morning?"

Owen again didn't respond, not wanting to hurt his dad's feelings.

"Owen, why didn't you eat breakfast?"

"You asked Olivia what she wanted and she picks food I don't like when she's mad at me. "

"Why would Olivia be mad at you?"

"Yesterday morning I told her she needed to brush her teeth because her breath was stinky. She told me she did and Daddy I knew she was lying. So I made her brush her teeth and she didn't like that. So she's been picking food I don't like since yesterday."

"Do you skip breakfast often?"

"Only when Olivia picks food I don't like."

'So the twins picking breakfast is no longer happening' Reid thought.

"Hey, I love you okay?"

"I love you too Daddy"

Reid reached for his son and waited for a response. Owen climbed into Reid's lap and cuddled up into his dad's chest. Spencer kissed the top of Owen's head.

"Alright, are you ready to go to school?"

"Duh" Owen hopped off Spencer's lap and crawled back to the backseat. He grabbed his backpack, and jumped up and down in the middle seat till Reid opened the door.

"Let's go let's go" Owen grabbed Reid's hand pulling him towards his school.

"Okay okay, we are going"

Spencer walked with Owen to the school and went to the office he was just at an hour ago with his other child.

He signed Owen in and kissed the top of his head.

"Have a good day, I love you and I will see you in a few hours okay?"

"Okay Bye Daddy" Owen said waving as he walked towards his class.

Spencer's phone buzzed in his pocket, he pulled it out and pressed the side button seeing a text from Emily with four words.

"We have a case"

He texted his longtime nanny Leah and told her what was going on. She had become family, getting invited to Christmas with his family and Reid headed back to the BAU, knowing he was going to have to put everything with JJ behind him.

Reid took the elevator back up to the floor. He took a deep breath before opening the doors into the BAU.
