Alex's POV
Ethan went to bed shortly after James got home and we went to bed right after Ethan fell asleep. It felt even better to sleep with my husband and my son in the same house. I felt better than I have in a very long time. I had my family back and I was getting my life back—the parts that I missed the most.
"Morning." James said as I began to open my eyes.
"I love you."
"I missed you too." James replied and we started to kiss, but stopped when we heard our bedroom door start to open and Ethan came in. He climbed into bed and James held him tight in his arms.
"I love you dad." Ethan said.
"I love you too, buddy."
"Mom too!" Ethan said and we all laughed as I joined the group hug. We were interrupted by the phone ringing and I answered it quickly—it probably being work. At least if I had to leave, James could stay with Ethan if the BAU didn't need anything else from him. I hope not.
"Blake." I said when I answered.
"Alex, it's Spencer."
"What's up, Reid?" I asked.
"He confessed." He told me. "He's going to go away for a long time. Hotch thought I'd let you know. Oh and you don't have to come in today." He added and I smiled—another great thing!
"Thanks Reid." I said.
"No problem, now enjoy the day with your family." He said—he didn't know James was some too.
"I certainly will." I said looking at the best boys in the world. I hung up the phone.
"You need to go?" James asked and I shook my head with a grin.
"Got the day off and that man is going away. He confessed." I told James and he then kissed me. I had a feeling if that hadn't been the case, James would have gone down there and beat the man until he confessed because of what he did to Ethan.
"He won't hurt me again?" Ethan asked and I nodded.
"He won't. You're home now and you're never leaving again." I told him and we all hugged each other again. One thing for sure is how much I missed this. Things will never be the exact same again, but at least I have my family back.
I thought I might as well end it since I have no idea on how to continue besides the man pleading guilty. I didn't want to leave it, like I said before.
Thank you for reading!
