Hey guys Apple here! So it's been a while since I've written for Who Knew, so here it is! Please, if you have any suggestions write them in the review section! I feel like I'm going to make Charlie a calm teenager. She's Reid's kid, so I feel like she would be the calm type, not the stereotypical teenager. I know that when I was a teenager I was the calm type. Anyways, I hope you enjoy and sorry for grammar errors!

Charlie woke up to the smell of bacon and omelets. As she walked out of her room and to the kitchen, she saw Spencer in the kitchen cooking.

"Good morning Spencer." She greeted as she walked over to Reid.

"Oh hey Charlie. Would you like some breakfast?" He asked as he looked at her, then went back to the food.

"Uh-yes please. Looks and smells good." She replied.

"Okay. Get a plate, they're in the third cabinet from my right side." Reid stated as he continued to flip the bacon.

"Okay." She replied as she took out two plates. "Here, one for you and one for me."

"Thanks." Reid replied as he took a plate and put an omelet and bacon on it and handed it back to her.

"Thank you. Where are the forks?" She asked as Reid took the other plate and did the same.

"Ummm, in the dishwasher I believe." He replied as he took his plate to the table.

"Okay. Should I get you one?" She asked as she walked over to the dishwasher.

"Yeah. Would you like some orange juice?" Reid offered as he went back into the kitchen and got two cups.

"Yes please." She replied as she set a fork on Reid's plate, set her plate and fork and sat down.

"Here." Reid said as he gave her a glass of orange juice and sat down.

They ate in comfortable silence, before Reid broke the silence.

"So what do you want to do today?" Reid asked as he cut another piece of his omelet.

"I don't know. What do you want to do?" She asked as she took another piece of bacon to her mouth.

"Whatever you want." Reid replied.

"Well...can we stay home? I kinda wanna look around and, mostly read the books." She suggested.

"Yeah. That's sounds great." Reid stated as he looked at her and smiled.

"Okay, so what book do you want to read?" Reid asked as he gestured at all of the bookshelves in the living room.

"Umm, to be honest, what do you have?" She asked as she scanned the book titles.

"Take a look." Reid answered as he got one of the new books he got yesterday, sat down in a random couch and began to read it. She picked a book titled, "Beyond Good and Evil" andsat next to Reid.

"You read quickly." She stated as she saw Reid speed through the pages.

"Yeah. I do." Reid answered as he stopped reading and paid attention to the book she picked. "Excellent choice. It's a good book."

She smiled at his comment. "Really?" She asked as she looked at him, smiled and opened the book.

"Yeah. I've read it a couple of times." He replied as he flipped the page and continued to read.

After two hours of reading in silence, they heard the door bell ring.

"Were you expecting someone?" Charlie asked as she stopped reading.

"Umm, no." Reid replied as he left his book on the coffee table and walked over to the door. He tensed the

closer he got to the door. Once he looked through the peephole, he relaxed, it was JJ and Henry.

"Hey JJ." He greeted as he opened the door for them.

"Hey Spence. I brought Henry. Sorry for coming all of a sudden, I was just around the area. I just wanted to check up on you." She replied as Henry ran up to Reid to hug him.

"Uncle Spencer!" Henry exclaimed.

"Hey Henry!" Reid greeted as he hugged Henry back. "Come in."

"Thanks." JJ replied as she entered Reid's apartment. "Hey Charlie!"

"Oh hi JJ." Charlie shyly greeted as she stopped reading and put the book on the table.

"How are you?" JJ asked as she sat across from Charlie.

"I'm good, you?" Charlie asked as she sat up.

"I'm good." JJ replied as Reid and Henry came to the living room holding hands.

"Charlie, this is Henry, Henry, this is Charlie." Reid said as he sat next to Charlie with Henry.

"Hi Henry!" Charlie greeted as she waved at Henry.

"Hi! Who are you?" Henry asked as he walked over to Charlie.

"My name is Charlie. I'm your Uncle Spencer's daughter." She explained

"Oh. Then what are you to me?" Henry replied happily. Charlie looked at JJ.

"Uh, she's your cousin...would you like to be Henry's cousin?" JJ asked.

"I would love to." Charlie replied as she smiled and looked at Henry.

"Yay! So your my cousin!" Henry stated as he hugged Charlie. Charlie hesitated, but hugged Henry back. Everyone smiled at the action.

"So what were you guys doing?" JJ asked as Henry let go of Charlie.

"Reading." Reid simply answered as he got up. "Would you like something to drink?"

"No thanks." JJ replied as she looked at the books.

"Okay, hey Henry, do you want something to drink?" Reid asked.

"Can I have juice?" Henry asked JJ.

"Of course Henry." JJ responded.

"Can I have juice Uncle Spencer?" Henry asked enthusiastically.

"Yeah. I'll get you some orange juice." Reid uttered as he got some juice.

"So what book are you reading?" JJ asked Charlie.

"Beyond Good and Evil." Charlie proclaimed idly as Reid came back and handed Henry a sippy cup with juice.

"That's great. So, what are you guys planning to do today?" JJ asked Reid as he sat down.

"I don't know, what do you want to do?" Reid asked Charlie as he looked at her.

"I like what we are doing." She replied as she started to mess around with the book.

"Okay then, we'll read and later on I'll continue to fill out forms." Reid stated.

"She's a reader. That's awesome, since you are too. I think that you guys will be great together." JJ stated as she saw what Charlie was doing.

"Yeah." Reid replied as he smiled at Charlie.

"Hey Spence," JJ asked.

"Yeah?" Reid responded as he looked back at JJ.

"I know that this is a personal question but," JJ hesitated, but continued, "Why did you adopt a kid?"

Reid exhaled loudly and asked, "Do you remember the Jakeon's case in Luisiana?"

"The one with the autistic boy, Sammy? Yeah. I do." JJ replied.

"Yeah. That case changed me. It showed me that children can like me. The "Reid Effect" only happens to some kids. With that being proved, I thought more. I want children, but I'll never find someone. And if I do, I'll still adopt. My gene might have skipped me but it won't skip my kid. I don't want to take any chances. I'm 29, and I think that I'm ready for a kid. I don't know, it's just... It's complicated." Reid replied as JJ continued to look at him.

"Yeah. I understand. I completely understand the concept. Well, I guess I should get going. You have 'till Wednesday to finish those papers and get everything settled, so good luck! You should be happy Hotch gave us these days off." JJ stated as she got up and put Henry's empty sippy cup on top of the coffee table and got Henry's hand. "Oh and Spence."

"Yeah?" Reid asked as he also got up.

"If you ever need a babysitter, I'm here for you. Henry likes her, and I don't think that Will would mind hanging out with her." JJ stated as she proceeded to walk to the door.

"Thanks JJ. I appreciate it. I'll hopefully have it figured out by Wednesday." Reid responded as he followed JJ to the door.

"Call me if you need anything okay?" JJ asked as she hugged Reid.

"Okay." Reid replied as they broke apart and he hugged Henry.

"Come here." JJ asked Charlie as she gestured to come over. Charlie hesitated, but got off the couch and walked to the door.

"Bye Charlie!" Henry said as he ran over to Charlie and hugged her.

"Bye Henry!" Charlie replied as she hugged Henry back.

"Bye Charlie!" JJ said as Henry let go.

"Bye JJ!" She replied as she smiled at her. With that, JJ walked over to her and hugged her. Charlie stiffened, but eventually hugged her back.

"Your in good hands. Welcome to the family!" JJ whispered to Charlie before she pulled away. Charlie smiled again, before waving at them.

"Bye Uncle Spencer! Bye Charlie!" Henry exclaimed again as they left.

Once they left, Reid closed the door and locked it.

"So they're your family?" Charlie asked as they both sat down and got their books.

"They are part of my family. You'll eventually meet the rest of them later." Reid explained as he put away his book. "I should finish with the paperwork."

Charlie nodded as she continued to read.

"Hey Charlie," Reid asked as he walked back into the living room, where Charlie was bored out of her mind.

"Hi Spencer." Charlie replied as she looked at him.

"Did you finish the book?" He asked as he sat next to her.

"Umm, yeah just now." Charlie replied as she messed with her fingers.

"That's good." Reid responded as he saw the actions she was doing. "What's wrong?"

"Oh-nothing. Everything is great. I just...I have some questions." She answered.

"Is that so?" Reid asked. Charlie nodded in reply. "Well, ask away."

"So I don't go to my old school right? Or at least, not anymore right? I now go to a school near home right?" She asked.

"Yeah. You will go to a nearby school. Which reminds me, you are going to go to school on Monday." Reid answered.

"Oh. Okay." She replied.

"Yeah. Is that all on your mind?" Reid asked.

"Well-" Charlie said as Reid's phone rang.

"Sorry. I have to answer this." Reid stated as he saw the caller ID: JJ.

"Reid." He answered.

"Hey Reid, we have a case, which sucks, and I know that you aren't ready, but we still have to go. You now have to say something." JJ responded. Reid exhaled loudly, and ran his fingers through his hair.

"Okay, thanks JJ." Reid inquired as they disconnected. Reid looked back at Charlie, who was looking back him.

"Sorry, what were going to ask?" He asked.

"Never mind, it can wait." She proclaimed idly.

"Are you sure?" Reid double checked. She nodded in response.

"Okay. It was JJ. We have a case, do you want to come to the BAU office? You won't be bored, and they might let me off the hook." Reid suggested.

"You want me to go with you?" Charlie asked, stunned by the question. Reid nodded. Charlie thought, then replied, "Yeah. I'd love to. Let me change and we'll go."

"Okay." Reid stated as he walked to his room to get his go bag (just incase they didn't leave him off the hook) and waited to Charlie.
