The case progressed without incident. The UnSub was caught without major causalities. But the flight home was hell for Reid. On the way there and during the case there hadn't been much time for questions. But now there was and instead of sleeping, or filling out their files, the guys wanted to know "what was up with Reid".
"Where'd you get the new clothes, Reid?" Rossi asked, mildly interested.
"The girls took me out shopping."
"Why'd you let them do that?" Hotch asked.
"Garcia."
"Why'd they want to take you shopping anyway? They never tried to replace your clothing before," Rossi asked.
"They found out that he's gay," Morgan said.
"You're gay?" Rossi asked.
"Yep," Reid said, hoping that this wouldn't cause any problems.
"Why didn't you tell us earlier?" Rossi asked.
"His sexuality, and sex life, is none of our business. It's Reid's decision," Hotch answered.
"I don't find it to be that big of a deal, alright? I didn't want anyone to know because it's just another thing that sets me apart."
The silence that followed was filled with contemplation.
"Hey man, don't worry. We accept you for who you are. Quirks and all," Morgan said, patting Reid's shoulder. Yeah, but will you accept me when you find out that you're the object of my affections?
