For all the reviews I got demanding for an update. Here you Go! :-)
Derek's POV
This was it. I wasn't going to keep this secret anymore. I was going to let him know the whole truth. Cuz I just couldn't keep doing this. For his sake and mine. He stared at me for a long moment, trying to get his emotions under control.
"Spencer." I said, staring him straight in the eyes.
"The reason that I broke up with you, is because Strauss."
His eyes lite up then.
"What?" He said, in shock.
"When we took those two months off after what happened to you. I realized how I really felt about you. In those two months I had realized so much about myself, and how you made me feel."
I took his hands.
"Spencer. In those two months, I fell in love with you."
I felt him tense up.
"Derek." Before he could finish what he was going to say, I stopped him.
"Some how Strauss found out about us. She called me into her office two days before I broke it off with you. She told me that she knew about us, and that she couldn't have been more disappointed in the news of it. Then she told me how she really felt about the news about us. She said, that it was the perfect opening for her to finally get Hotch out of the BAU." He shook his head.
"How?" I sighed.
"She saw this as a good opportunity to form a new BAU. The right people for the job. She put it. She told me that if I didn't break if off with you, then she would fire you, and than that would be good means to fire Hotch. Seeing that he couldn't keep his co-workers from breaking the rules." He put his hand in my face.
"Wait a minute. So the woman on the phone, and all those phone calls. Were Strauss?" I nodded my head.
"I can't believe it."
"So you see that I couldn't just let you get fired from something you love. After all that was our rule when we started dating. That we wouldn't let it get in the way of the job."
He smiled at me.
"Spencer. I love you, and I couldn't let something like that happen to you because of me. So I saw the only way for you to keep working at the BAU, was to call it off. It was the hardest thing that I had ever had to do in my life. As you can tell from the many fights that we have had in the past 4 days." I smiled at that. Trying to lighten the mood a little. "I couldn't let Strauss win."
He was silent for so long, that I was starting to panic. "Say something please Spencer." He stared at me, and then he kissed me.
He kissed like he had did the very first time that we had been together.
With nothing, but love.
He pulled away slowly.
"I love you too Derek. I always have, and you don't know how happy I am to hear that you love me back."
I kissed him again. "So does that mean that I get another chance?" He laughed.
"What do you think?" I smiled, and hugged him.
" I love you so much Spencer." I said, running my hands through his hair.
"I love you too." He said, kissing my neck. Then he pulled away.
"Now, lets get back to work." He said, sitting back right into his seat, and putting his seatbelt on.
"Right." I said, pulling back onto the road.
