Author's note:
So I don't own Criminal Minds. Just making sure you guys remember that.
About Henry, I'd say he's close to two, but he's very smart. I don't know if I'm making him overly smart, so I apologize if he's almost... "too smart."
Reviewers: I love y'all.
Here's a thought, if you'd like to see it - Review and tell me. I'm thinking about starting another story. Same story line, focused on the Quantico an Emily pairing Emily/Morgan Emily/OC.. or even Emily/Hotch? I don't know yet. I'm leaning more towards Emily/Morgan at the moment. If you'd like to see this, leave a review, mentioning it and I'll do it.
I am planning on writing Will/JJ's reaction to him finding out about Henry and their talk - so look out for that. I'll mention it in of the next few chapters, once I get a name and post it! Thank you for reading! Cheers!
Spencer looked up at JJ, before looking back at Henry. "Henry..."
JJ took the little boy out of his arms. "I think you need to go now. You've done enough."
Spencer stood up and Henry stretched to be in his arms. "Spenner, we play?"
JJ took a step. "It's bed time, Henry. Spencer was just going."
Spencer glared and took the boy in his arms. "Spencer had a really bad dream buddy and he...I came all the way here to see you."
"You got on airplane?" Henry's eyes widened.
"Yeah, buddy. Because I love you soo much and I had to make sure you were okay."
"I love you too, Spenner." Henry rested his head on his shoulder. "It's bed time. We play tomorrow?"
JJ looked at him, her arms folded against her. He was not staying here. She had to talk with Will and she had to work.
"I got to go back home, buddy, but... maybe you can come spend some time with me. In Vegas. We can see you gran-"
"Spencer." JJ warned and Spencer sighed.
"My gramma?" Henry asked.
Spencer looked at JJ who just looked off. Spencer licked his lips and nodded. "Yeah, your gramma."
"Daddy's mommy?"
JJ looked back at him with a slight smirk. Spencer bit at his lip. "No... my mom, buddy."
"Oh. I your son." Henry said and nodded.
Spencer smiled. He was so smart. JJ took the little boy. "Spencer...Will is your daddy, Henry. but Spencer is..."
"I Spenner son."
JJ rubbed her head. "Yes, Henry, you Spencer's son."
"So he my daddy too."
"Will is your 'daddy', Spencer is Spencer."
"But I Spenner son."
"What Mommy is trying to say-"
"What Mommy is trying to say is that I will always be your Daddy, little man."
Will said, grabbing the boy away from Spencer with a scowl. Henry grinned. "Daddy! I Spenner son."
Spencer watched as Will clenched his jaw. "Yeah, buddy. You're made out of Mommy and Spencer. You're gonna grow up and look like Spencer."
Henry's eyes widen. "I be big!"
Will smiled a little. "Yeah, you're going to be tall and have crazy hair, but... you're going to be like me. Because I'm going to teach you how to ride your bike and play baseball and how to talk to girls. I'm going to teach you everything you need to know and whenever you need me, I'm going to be there, because I'm your Dad."
"Spenner teach me too?"
Spencer nodded. He couldn't speak. Will knew that this little boy wasn't his and he was still here. he cleared his throat. "I'll help you with school when your Mommy and... When your mommy and Daddy have no idea how to."
"You're special buddy, you're going to have two daddies!"
Henry looked like he had just gotten all the candy in the world. "TWO Daddies?"
Will chuckled a little. "Uh huh."
Henry seemed to be thinking, before looking at Spencer. "I call you daddy now too?"
Spencer looked at Will. Will looked back at him, shrugging.
"No buddy. You just call me Spenner, okay?"
"But I your son."
"You have a Daddy though." He said, softly.
Henry pouted. He didn't understand. "But I your son. You're my daddy too."
Spencer looked at JJ, who was watching Will like a hawk. She didn't even seem to care about him. He looked at Will, who was trying so hard to keep it together. Spencer watched as he didn't look at JJ at all. Spencer licked his lips.
"I...Will..."
Will rubbed the little boys back. "You want to call Spencer Daddy?"
Henry paused. "Then I call you Daddy too?"
Will shrugged. "You can call me Papa. I called my Dad Pops."
"Papa and Daddy?"
Will nodded. Henry seemed to think about it. Henry looked at Spencer. "That okay?"
"If its okay with your Daddy."
"You my Daddy, silly."
Spencer smiled. "Oh. If its okay with your Papa then."
Henry looked at Will. "That okay?"
"That's okay with me, Little man."
Henry smiled. "Mommy, Daddy and Papa!" He paused and looked at JJ. "No more Mommies right?"
CRIMINAL MINDS || VIVA LAS VEGAS
Spencer rested his head on her shoulder as Ryan ran her hand through his hair. She didn't know what to say to him. It seemed like he had already made his choice. She didn't know if she supported it or not. She know she should. She was dating him, she needed to be supportive, but she didn't know if he could handle the job and his son. JJ had Will. Spencer didn't have anyone who could stay home with the boy when he was with him. And JJ could use his drug problem against him. She just didn't see how he'd be able to get joint custody but she didn't say anything. He was hurting enough as it was at the moment. She couldn't make it worse.
"I'm surprised Will didn't kill you." She said, softly, playing with his hair.
"He loves Henry as much as I do."
"Do you think he'd be more willing than JJ to let you have visitation with Henry?"
Spencer shrugged, his fingers running over the blue in her shirt. He sighed.
"I'm never going to get joint custody. With my drug problem, my family's mental illness history, the hours I work."
She bit on her bottom lip. He was a genius. She should have known he'd realize it.
"Maybe you'll be able to come up with something. If you were to file, everyone would know and I'm sure JJ doesn't want that to come out like that. It could affect both of your jobs."
Spencer nodded. He turned back to the movie they were supposed to be watching. He looked up at her. "I'm sorry. I ruined our date."
Ryan smiled and kissed his forehead. "You're fine. I'm glad you can talk to me."
"Even if its about another girl."
She made a face. "I'd much rather hear about something else, but hey... I take what I can get."
"You could get a lot better."
She tugged at his hair. "Didn't you learn the lesson about self deprecation already?"
He raised an eyebrow. "Are you going to hit me again?"
"Looks like I might have to." She tugged at his curl again.
He sighed. "But...psychologically speaking, I am not a good person to be with at the moment. I'm basically grieving for the lost of the love that I've been pinning after for almost 6 years and... I recently found out that I have a son. I might be going through a custody battle and I work-"
Ryan placed her hand over his mouth. "Do you like me?"
Spencer muttered something against her hand. She shook her head. "A simple head nod or shake will do."
He glared at her and nodded. She smiled. "Are you using me to get over JJ?"
He spoke against her hand again and she gave him a look. He looked annoyed and shook his head.
"Then we'll be okay. We're just having fun. If things get more serious than we'll talk, but I know the main idea. I may be younger than you, but I'm not a little girl.I can take care of myself. Plus, I enjoy spending time with you. Are you having fun with me?"
He nodded again.
"Then...stop over thinking." She pulled away her hand.
" But over thinking is what I do best."
"Spencer." She warned. She would stuff his mouth with a sock if she had to.
He rested his head back on her chest, looking back at the movie. "Can we restart it?"
"If you can shut up long enough to watch it."
He looked up back at her. "No facts?"
"One fact and I'll gag you."
