A New Lease on Life

Words: 490

Summary: Reid has been hiding something and Morgan is sick of it. So he decides to take matters into his own hands and find out what the resident genius of the BAU is hiding. But what he finds is the last thing that he expected to see ever.


Reid was definitely hiding something. He had been acting strange all week and for the life of me I just couldn't figure out what it was. Something was going on in the genius's life and instead of going to the people who cared about him, he was hiding from us. Well not any more. I was going to take matters into my own hands. If he wasn't going to tell me what was going on, then I was just going to have to profile it out of him-and maybe stalk him a little.

I noticed that he was constantly checking his bank account on his phone and frequently looking over his shoulder. There was something that he clearly didn't want the rest of the team to find out about; something that was constantly draining his funds. It was five in the evening when Reid rose from his seat and made his way to his car. Little did he know was that I was just a few seconds behind him.

He rode down some rough streets until he pulled into some run down motel. He parked, got out, and made his way to the door of one of the rooms. Oh my gosh…my Pretty Boy is sneaking around because he is living in a motel. My brain was still trying to process this info as I made my way to the door that I had just witnessed my co-worker enter. It didn't take long before he was answering the door only to try and shut it in my face with an expression of pure terror. I stuck my foot in the doorway.

"Why don't you just let me in Pretty Boy?" Reluctantly Reid moved aside and allowed me to enter. All his clothes and books were packed in boxes along the wall. Definitely not staying here.

"Why are you here, Reid?"

"Just dealing with a pest problem in my apartment so I am staying here until they fumigate."

"Spencer." The name was spoken as a warning.

"I-I got…"

"You got evicted? Why?"

"Because I can no longer afford the damn place. They raised my rent!"

"Well then, pack your things. I have a rental property that you can use."

"No Morgan. I will not accept charity."

"This is not charity Reid. This is a friend helping a friend in need."

"I said no." His face spoke volumes, but I was not going to let up. There was no way that I was going to let my Pretty Boy stay in this motel, especially in this neighborhood.

"Fine then you are coming with me."

"Going with you where?"

"To my place. I have a spare bedroom and I refuse to take no for an answer. Now grab what you need for tonight. We will come back for the rest tomorrow."

Reid looked as if he wanted to argue so I gave him my best puppy dog look. "Please Spence." He agreed instantly.


A/N: I hope that you all enjoyed it. Don't worry about the cliff hanger. This little one is not complete. There will be at least one more part to go along with this one! Anyways don't forget to R&R! Until Next Time...See Ya :D
