I beg you all for forgiveness! I am so sorry about the delay with this chapter but I am currently having an awesom time writing my 'Hangman' fanfic.

I am really sorry.

Enjoy the chapter and please review!

All mistakes are my own

Reid pulled out into traffic. He chuckled slightly when he noticed Ali gripping the door handle tightly. He heard a small crack and saw the handle snap off.

"My driving is not that bad. It is a lot better than it was. I've had fifteen years to practise" Reid smiled at Ali as he
turned the corner.

"That was clearly not enough time for you" Ali sighed. She didn't care that she was immortal. She hated it when Spencer drove cars. He was a danger to the road.

"Thank you for your faith in me," Reid smiled at Ali before he put his foot on the acceleration. Ali watched Reid began to speed down the road.

"Spencer. Blue car, blue car!" Ali shouted before she pointed to the blue car currently speeding from one of the corner roads.

Hotch's house

Garcia almost skipped round the kitchen as she prepared everything for Reid's arrival at the house. Hotch was resting against the sofa and was talking with Morgan. Garcia smiled as she watched the team, her family all smiling and laughing properly for the first time in years. They had had good times but it always dawned on them that Reid wasn't there.

Garcia was happy that had changed now. She was happy that things had returned to normal. Almost normal.

Garcia looked out of the window and saw Reid pull up into the drive way. Garcia laughed slightly as she watched Ali exit the vehicle looking slightly shaken.

"Everyone get ready" Garcia laughed as she turned out the light in the living room. Kevin caught Garcia as she almost fell over a stray balloon.

"Calm down Garcia," Kevin said as he tried to calm Garcia down.

"I'm just happy. I want everything to go to plan," Garcia whispered back.

Reid

Reid couldn't wipe the smirk of his face. He had never known a vampire be that scared of being in a car. Reid walked up to the door and knocked on it. He saw that there were no lights on and was slightly confused and concerned.

"Someone should be in," Reid observed before he knocked the door again. Reid closed his eyes and listened for any noises inside. He could hear various heartbeats and wondered why the lights were out.

"Just go in," Ali told him. He turned round and saw Ali smiling back at him. He knew that smile all to well.

"Ali. What are they doing?" Reid asked her in a hushed whisper.

"Open the door and find out. They are welcoming you back. Go in now," Ali urged him again, she kept her voice low but she knew that the team inside were waiting.

Reid gave Ali a small smile before he opened the door and poked his head round the corner. Reid could see the team with his vampire enhanced vision.

"You guys do realise that I can see in the dark," Reid said before he switched the lights on and gave the team a big smile.

"Reid you bloody spoil sport," Garcia pouted before she rushed foward to give Reid a hug. Ali slipped through the door behind Reid and kept her distance from the team. She knew this was a personal moment and she didn't want to intrude on it.

Reid looked around the room and saw a huge banner saying welcome back. He was not surprised by the huge bundles of balloons that filled the room.

"You guys didn't need to do this," Reid told the team as he hugged JJ them. He shook Hotch's uninjured hand and gave him small nod.

"Come here Ali," Garcia smiled before she hugged the surprised vampire. Ali stiffened for a moment before she returned the hug. She looked at Reid and saw that he hiding a grin. Ali mouthed 'shut up' to Reid causing him to raise his arms up in a mock surrender. Garcia pulled away from the hug and looked at Ali.

"You are part of the family as well. You have looked after Reid for so long, we can't thank you enough," Garcia thanked before giving Ali another small hug.

"Let's get this party started" Morgan cheered as everyone else let out a synchronised chuckle.

Two hours later

Ali and Reid were in the kitchen with Garcia as she prepared food for the others. Reid missed eating but he still loved watching it be prepared. It made him feel more human in some ways.

"Ouch" Garcia moaned as the knife sliced her finger. Reid and Ali instantly smelled the blood, they both stared at Garcia. Reid looked at Ali quickly and saw her eyes had turned red. Reid looked at his reflection in the toaster and saw that his eyes were red as well. They both whipped round to face away from Garcia.

"We'll be back in a minute," Reid gasped before Ali and himself ran into the backyard with superhuman speed. Reid closed his eyes and took a few small deep breaths to take the edge away from his hunger. He let his human side dominate his vampire side. Garcia was one of his dearest friends, he would not hurt her. He was stronger than this. He watched as Ali did the same, he admired how fast she was calming down.

"You good" she asked as she noticed Reid's eyes had returned to their brown colour.

"I'm good. I just didn't expect her blood to be that strong. How are you doing?" Reid asked her back.

"I didn't expect it. I've dealt with this before. I'm fine," Ali assured him before she turned round and took a few steps away from him. Reid knew that something was wrong with her, he still maintained his profiling abilities.

"Ali, what is wrong?" Reid asked as he took a few steps towards her.

"I can't do this anymore. I can't be around you when I feel like this," she told him passionately.

"Feel like what?" Reid responded as he took another step foward. Ali stayed where she was, she didn't want to admit how she really felt but it was becoming harder and harder for her to ignore the feeling growing inside her.

"I know that you loved Taylor. I know that you miss her everyday and I know that you still love her inside. I don't know what to do about how I feel. I love you Spencer. I feel so happy when I am around you. I just had to tell you that," Ali blurted out quickly before she stopped and stared at him with fearful eyes.

Reid felt shocked at hearing the words come from her lips. He felt the same way but he had not acted on the feelings because of his fear of being rejected by one of his best friends. Reid took a small deep breaths and rushed foward at superhuman speed.

Ali barely had time to react as Reid kissed her.

Emily

Emily was walking around the sofa when she stopped dead at the sight in the garden. She felt shocked as she watched Reid kissing Ali passionately. Ali had her hands running through Reid's hair.

"Emily what are you staring at?" Morgan asked as he walked to stand beside her. He looked out into the garden and let his jaw drop.
