Spencer turned out the light in the boys room before making his way out to the living room to see Ryan flipping through the channels. She looked up.

"Is the little cutie asleep?"

Spencer nodded and sat down next to her. Ryan watched him before turning off the tv.

"What are you thinking about?"

"You."

Ryan raised an eyebrow. "Me?"

"You've been so great with him and..me. I don't know if I could have got through this without you."

Ryan smiled at his words. She leaned over and kissed his cheek. "Yes you could. You could do anything you wanted to, Spence."

"Henry really likes you."

"Well, good. I really like him too."

Ryan laid against him and Spencer kissed her temple. "I really like you too."

She looked up and kissed his lips. "You better."

Spencer frowned. "Does that mean-"

"I really like you too, Spencer. I have to admit even if it's been crazy these last few days, I've..." She paused and made a face, uncertain if she should finish.

Spencer furrowed his eyebrow. "You've what?"

She shook her head. "It's ridiculous. I mean, I know that-"

Spencer pulled away, looking at her more directly. "Tell me."

Ryan bit at her lip. "Promise not to over think it?"

Spencer's lips curled into a half-smile. "You know I can't."

Ryan ran her fingers over his chest, playing with his tie, her eyes focusing on it rather than him. "I've felt like I'm..." She paused and lowered her voice. "part of a family."

Spencer looked at her. He opened his mouth to say something before pausing and biting at his lip. Ryan looked up at him, seeing his brain turning over the words. She pulled back.

"I should probably head home. I'll see you at work tomorrow."

Spencer watched as she got up before standing up. "What does that mean?"

Ryan turned. "It means... I'll see you at work tomorrow?"

Spencer rolled his eyes. "No. I mean... part of a family. Does that mean you..."

Ryan sighed and shrugged. "It just means that I... I just... I love my god parents, I do. They always treated me like I was one of them, but I never... felt like I was and I don't know.. I felt like I was part of your family today." She flushed. "I should really get going."

Spencer reached out and grabbed her hand. He pulled her towards him and wrapped his arms around her waist. "I know what you mean. I'm glad you were with me today."

Ryan played with one of his curls, hiding her eyes from his again. "I don't want you to move back to Virginia." She said, softly.

He kissed her forehead.

"I know I can't ask you not to. I know that Henry is number one and that you and JJ have to make that choice together, because he's going to have to be flying a lot alone and it...isn't fair, but..."

She looked up at him. "I really don't want you to move."

"Even if I did, we'd still..."

"Spence, if you move back there, you and I both know there's a chance of you..."

"I wouldn't do that to you." Spencer said, cutting her off.

"You love her."

"I.." He trailed off

Ryan ran her fingers over his cheek over his lips. "You want your family to be together."

"We could be a family."

Ryan raised her eyebrows. "I... what?"

"With time, our relationship could develop into something with enough communication and understanding, we could... someday be a family."

Ryan licked her lips. "I... are you talking logically or... because you like that idea?"

Spencer frowned. "Well.. uh, I mean, Sternberg says that-"

Ryan pushed her fingers against his lips. "I'm not asking about Sternberg."

Henry came out of his room, rubbing his eyes. "Daddy, I have to potty."

Spencer locked eyes with Ryan for a few seconds before turning to look at the boy.

"Okay, buddy. Go to the bathroom and I'll be there in a second."

Henry nodded, shuffling to the bathroom. Spencer turned back to Ryan. He kissed her.

"I say it because it's reasonable to think that it's a possibility and because where as its not how I pictured my life or family, I wouldn't mind."

Ryan watched as Spencer went to the bathroom with Henry. She didn't know how to take his response.

Spencer watched as Henry ran around with the 3 and 4 year old children. He turned back to the lady.

"And he'll be safe. If something happens, you'll call me."

"Yes sir. We have your cell and office number, as well as a Ryan Williams, Elle Greenaway, Jason Vence, Will DiMario and Greg Stewart - You know that we just needed one emergency contact."

"I should give you his mother's number as well."

"I thought she was in Virginia, sir."

"She is, but if there is an emergency then she should know as well."

"I.. okay."

Spencer looked back at Henry. "He's only 23 months, are you sure that it's okay to leave him here?"

The lady smiled. "Yes, he'll be fine."

Spencer bit at his lip. "He's very intelligent. He might be a little...difficult at times."

"Yes, sir. You've told me twice now."

Spencer flushed. "Right."

He rubbed his cheek. "Can I go say goodbye to him?"

"It might make it more difficult for you to leave. Henry will be focused on you and might not want you to leave and..."

"I should just go then."

"You should just go."

"He won't think that I'm abandoning him?"

"No sir. We'll make sure that he knows you'll be back."

Spencer bit at his lip. "Are you sure?"

"Positive. You're... You're going to be late for work, sir."

"Right. Okay. I'll... Thank you."

The lady watched as the man hesitated before leaving the day care center.

Ryan tapped her fingers, staring at the coffee cup.

Grey leaned over to Elle. "How long has she been like that?"

Elle looked at her watch. "37 minutes."

Grey nodded, watching the woman. "She's been around the Doc too long."

Elle nodded. Grey poked the woman who casually turned to look at him. "What does it mean when someone tells you that "you're not who I pictured myself with but I wouldn't mind it'?"

"With who said it, I'd take it as a compliment."

"Wait, you know who Dr. Incredible is?" Grey asked, even Will turned to see if Elle would say.

Elle laughed. "Maybe, but I'm not-"

Ryan stood up when Spencer exited the elevator. She walked over to him.

"How did Henry do?"

"He was having a great time when I left. I told them to call me if he got upset or if he needed me. I gave them everyone's numbers. I'm going to see him at lunch."

Ryan nodded. "Have you spoken to JJ?"

"Whoa." DiMario said. "Hold up!"

Spencer and Ryan turned to look at the man who was staring at them. "Reid is Dr. Incredible."

Grey raised an eyebrow. "Nu uh."

Elle hid her smile, watching them.

Grey looked between them. "He can't be..."

DiMario looked between them. "She was at his home last night and...why else would she go to Virginia to see him."

Ryan looked at Spencer before back at DiMario. "We're friends. I was there when he went there. I was just... following up."

Grey looked between them. He chuckled. "Man, that's...awesome. You know you're never going to live this nickname down, Dr. Incredible."

Spencer rolled his eyes, grabbed Ryan's hand and pulled her into his office, a very dark red blush on his face.
