summary: Spencer knows how hard child cases were for Becklynn and always requests to room with her (which he does either way), this case was probably the hardest for Becklynn. After 2 days into the case, Spencer sees that his girlfriend is nervous to sleep when she tries to avoid the topic at all costs. So, he decides to help her.
Becklynn loved her job so much. so goddamn much. But sometimes it was just too much for her and she couldn't deal with the pressure anymore. But she stuck with it.
After all, she met her all-time favourite person, her boyfriend Spencer Reid. The genius, the nerd, the encyclopedia whatever you may call him.
Becklynn never really sat right with child cases, she hated them ever since she discovered what they were. Which was at a very young age, 6 to be exact. Something related to her brother and a kidnapper if you will.
She always relied on Spencer to comfort her, as one who is in a relationship would.
Spencer just entered their hotel room after going downstairs and getting the bedroom another key because twenty minutes before he came back to the hotel, Becklynn sent him a message telling him to ask for the other key 'cause she'll probably be showering.
He heard her slow music playing from her speaker coming from the bathroom. Spencer immediately knew that she was in there, so he knocked on the door to let her know that he was back in their room.
After 20 minutes, Becklynn came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body. "Hey, babe. Did I keep you waiting for too long?" She asked before walking towards the suitcases to get her outfit. Which were just a giant cardigan and floral shorts.
"Nope, you didn't miss much at the station either. Just everybody tired and cranky." Spencer said as he got up and went to hug her clothed back as she did her skincare in the bathroom, something they usually did.
"Oh, god. Sorry bubs," she said leaning back and turning her head back to face her boyfriend's tired eyes and kiss his 'button nose.' Which, as always, drove him to giggle.
Becklynn and Spencer started dating roughly a year after she joined, which was 3 years ago. 2 years were arriving in their anniversary calendar and she had a massive plan for him.
Both took a while to get comfortable in their relationship but once they did, they never ever looked back unless it was to make jokes. That was mainly cracked by Morgan.
Spencer noticed that Becklynn used a significantly longer amount of time to finish her skincare but decided not to say anything and potentially destroy the peace in the lavish bathroom, which they got since they got the honeymoon suite, free of charge by the hotel.
"I. Love. You." She said in between kisses as the couple cuddled while walking to the bed before collapsing on it. "I. Love. You. More. Times Googolplex so you can't love me more." Spencer stubbornly stated kissing his girlfriend deeply.
"Low Blow," she before she gently rubbed her pruned hand on his soft, relaxed face. He smiled and closed his eyes in bliss as his girlfriend dug her small head into his neck. He giggled when he felt her quiet, steady breath on his neck. She smiled before getting up and walking over to her everywhere tote bag. Which, obviously, she took everywhere.
Becklynn shuffled around her bag before getting her adult colouring book out along with her colour pencils. She deviously smiled before throwing the items previously in her hand onto the nearby coffee table and then proceeded to drag her boyfriend to said table.
He sat there and giggled as she judged all the colouring pages before settling on a complex one that she had forgotten that they started, but of course the genius didn't remind her, thinking it adorable as she judged the pages like she did whenever they coloured which was quite frequent.
After an hour or two of colouring, Spencer found himself dosing off while colouring before his seemingly hyper love woke him up once more. After a while, he noticed she was avoiding sleep. So, he picked her up and then set everything away to the side.
"Pumpkin, why are you avoiding sleeping?" He gently asked. She looked like a deer in headlights. "Of course, you'd notice. I don't even know why I thought you wouldn't. I'm scared." Becklynn rambled eating her words towards the end. But, Spencer heard every word.
"Aw, angel. You could've said so. Is it because of the child case?" He asked knowing her fear of sleeping since that's how her brother got taken away so long ago. She nodded burying her head into his neck for comfort.
"Bubs, I've got you and our guns are right next to us. We'll be fine. I promise. Now try to sleep, love bug. Okay?" "M'kay, I wuv you, Spence." She said closing her eyes and trying to find sleep as he ran his smooth, nimble fingers across her silky face. "I wuv you too angel bunny."
Becklynn fell asleep easily, through that night and multiple nights later, with her boy that she loved and knew he loved back. And every single morning the two would wake up early and buy coffee that they found at a local cafe about 2 minutes anyway from the hotel.
