There was the slightest of tapping at Henry's door before it creaked open, just enough for the slim form of Spencer Reid to slip into the room. He sat on the bed next to the still form of the young boy. Henry was holding the small blanket that had been given to him by Spencer at birth, over the past few years he had grown to use it as a security device more than anything. The fact that he was holding it now proved that the feelings he were feeling confused him.
"Hey buddy, do you want to talk about it?" Spencer said brushing his hand over the boys head.
"Go away, I don't like you." The boy replied.
"Well if you don't want to talk about it then maybe you will listen, yeah?"
The boy remained motionless and silent.
"Okay, well I heard what you and Jack were saying, and I heard what you said to your mum, I just want you to know that im not trying to replace your dad. I would never do that; your mum isn't trying to replace him either. What you saw today confused you didn't it?" he said hoping the boy would answer. Before Henry had the chance however, JJ knocked on the door, her eyes still teary and her nose dripping. Emily could be seen standing behind her in the hall. Spencer stood and left the room, knowing that whatever was going to be said was between JJ and her son. He stood outside in the hall with Emily and they spoke in hushed tones, discussing what had been said between the two young boys and what Henry had said to JJ, it was after what felt like an eternity that the boy slowly opened to reveal JJ holding Henry's hand. They emerged from the room and Henry looked up at Spencer, who immediately knelt down to the boy's level.
"Im sorry for what I said Uncle Spencer, I was sad and didn't mean it. Please forgive me?" the small child said, the truth behind his words was obvious in his expression.
"Of course I can forgive you Henry, I understand that didn't mean it, we all say things we don't mean sometimes." He replied reaching his hand out to the boy in front of him. Henry took Spencers hand in his own and walked forward to embrace his Godfather. They broke away from the hug and Spencer lifted the boy from the floor, placing him on his shoulders, they walked down the stairs this way, headed to the kitchen and the frozen treat that awaited them. As JJ and Emily followed the brunette looked at her blue eyed friend and smiled, knowing that everything was going to work out.
After the Ice-cream had been eaten and they boys had both brushed their teeth they were put in the living room with a DVD they both could enjoy, regardless of the age gap between them. The adults were situated in the back room once more; Hotch took the time to speak.
"Okay we have two exercises remaining, and I have an idea for one of them." He said, causing the rest of his team to look up, questioning looks upon all faces.
