When Reid neared his apartment, he heard the shouting music his cousin listened to when he was fuming and cursing in other languages.
You come to me with scars on your wrist
You tell me this will be the last night feeling like this
I just came to say goodbye
That fueled the doctor's anger as he hurried to the door. He crashed it opened, then slammed it closed. His cousin was standing by the kitchen, still in his clothes from the day; he had obviously been fuming since he had gotten back to the apartment.
The elder Reid grabbed the remote for the stereo that was on the table right by the front door and pressed the "mute" button. It only half muted, but it was low enough for them to be able to talk… or scream.
I didn't want you to see me cry, I'm fine
But I know it's a lie
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
"How could you do that?!" The doctor shouted, throwing his messenger bag down. "That's my work!"
"How could I?! You're the one that keeps letting these assholes walk all over your heart like it's a bloody doormat!" The prostitute shouted back.
"UGH! Will you stop going British?! It is so annoying!"
"I'll stop when you stop letting idiots treat you like you're nothing!"
"I'm not! He needs time!"
"No, he doesn't!"
"How can you be sure?!"
"Because the only ones that don't want to be with you are ones that don't want to commit!"
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
"It's not like that and you know it!"
"Do not tell me what I do and don't know! Because what I know is that he does not deserve you!"
"And who exactly does?!"
"No one! Not yet at least!"
"You're the one that was pushing us together!"
"I know but… UGH! Honestly, you know that I'm not the biggest heterosexual advocate, but I honestly think you should try a girl!"
"'Not the biggest heterosexual advocate'?! You won't read hardly anything with a heterosexual couple in it, and when there is, you ship homosexual couples!"
"Does that matter?!"
"I matters to me!"
"That's not what we're talking about! We're talking about a girl probably being the best option for you!"
"You know I hardly ever have crushes on girls!"
"You also hardly ever have crushes on good guys, but I still think you should look for one!" The prostitute shouted, his hands moving like claws as his rage took hold of pretty much every part of him.
"Derek is a good guy!"
"I honestly don't think he is!"
"You don't even know him!"
"I know him enough!"
"For some reason, I don't really believe that!" Doctor Reid yelled sarcastically, throwing his hands up.
"We're alike Spencer! Why will you thoughtlessly believe in him, but won't trust me?!"
Your parents say everything is your fault
But they don't know you like I know you
They don't know you at all
I'm so sick of when they say
"Because you're just a teenager! You don't know anything yet!"
"I know more than probably you do!"
"I highly doubt that."
"UGH! All this aggression needs to be aimed at Morgan, NOT me! He's the asshole!"
"Will you stop?! You think that just because you're my cousin, you have a say over who gets to be in my life!"
"Because I should!"
"NO YOU SHOULDN'T!"
"YES I SHOULD!"
It's just a phase, you'll be o.k. you're fine
But I know it's a lie
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
It was about that time that Doctor Reid realized that it was nearly impossible for him to breath. He knew that if his cousin had been yelling longer sentences, if his heart hadn't just been broken, or even if they were yelling over the phone it would be easier for him. But with the constant yelling, heart break, and being face to face, he was struggling to get enough oxygen in his body to be able to talk.
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
"He is messing with your heart and your head! Just kick him to the fucking curb!" "Puck" yelled.
"You don't… understand!" The doctor yelled back, having to stop in the middle of his yelling to take a breath.
Hot tears pricked at his eyes, making the airflow lessen even more.
"What is there to understand Spencer?! It's obvious that this is eating at you! And you don't care? This is all because of a stupid jerk that hasn't realized that you are the greatest thing he could possibly have in his life!"
The last night away from me
The night is so long when everything's wrong
If you give me your hand
I will help you hold on
That's when the eldest Reid went down to his knees, nails on his left hand digging into the flesh by his collar bone.
"Oh my god, Spencer." The youngest said, immediately going down to his knees right next to his cousin. "Sit down."
The doctor did as he was told, stretching his legs out in front of himself. The younger got behind his family member. He put his legs on either side of the adult; put his hands on older Reid's sides and his head on the elder genius' shoulder. "Puck"s thumbs slowly moved up and down on the sides of the elder's sides, his head tilted and rested against Doctor Reid's neck. The older male rested his head on top of young Spencer's and put his hands over the teen's hands.
Tonight, tonight
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
They knew it was very unorthodox, but it worked, so they didn't really care. The two sat in complete silent, only listening to the song that was playing on half muted repeat on the stereo, for almost ten whole minutes.
When Doctor Reid's breathing had finally returned to normal, he turned to look at his cousin with a slight smile on his face and appreciation in his eyes.
"Thanks." He smiled.
"Any time."
The elder turned and the two of them hugged.
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
"Ya know… if your offer… uh, the o-one about us living together… if that's still on the table… I think I might want to take you up on it." "Puck" said as they hugged, knowing it would be too hard to say looking into his cousins' big brown eyes.
Elder Reid pulled away and looked into the teens eyes.
"Really?" He asked with a very happy smile.
"Yea… well, ya know, just… with you panicking and picking guys your mom wouldn't approve of… someone needs to keep an eye on you."
"Taking a Hunter stance now?"
"Well… he was the greatest character in that show."
"Arguably." The doctor shrugged.
The two looked into each other's eyes once more… and just started laughing.
I won't let you say goodbye
And I'll be your reason why
The last night away from me
Away from me
