Reader and him are evacuating people from a building with the bomb in it and the second Spencer gets to a safe place from the building, it blows up with the reader supposedly in it. basically very angsty but with a happy end where she survives and they reunite after the explosion 🙏🏻❤️” - @barbarachern​

A/N: YESS. I am loving this concept so I am so excited to write it. I hope you like my interpretation! If this flops, Mr. Scratch wrote it. I also want to thank you guys on all the love for Like Teenagers! Thank you! I used the season 7 finale as inspiration for this. I was rewatching that episode yesterday and I couldn’t resist using it. I also tweaked it a bit, I hope you still like it!

Description: The Reader and Spencer both work at the BAU and it’s always a stressful time when the entire team is out in the field. When the bomb squad doesn’t account for one last bomb, things go terribly wrong. 

Character Appearances: Derek Morgan, Penelope Garcia, Spencer Reid, Aaron Hotchner, David Rossi, Jennifer “JJ” Jareau, Emily Prentiss

As soon as you and Spencer got to work you were already out the door again with the rest of the team. The bullpen was filled with Homeland Security, field agents, Metro PD, and just about any law enforcement personnel you could think of. 

“Reid, (Y/L/N), head to the SUVs, we have hostages and multiple bombs at the GreenValley Family Center.” Hotch quickly debriefed you on what was going on as you and the rest of the team rushed downstairs. 

“How did the Unsubs past security?” JJ asked

“They posed as maintenance workers, it gave them easy access inside,” Hotch replied 

You and Spencer shared a look. You both knew something about the day was off, but you couldn’t figure out why. 

--- 

When the team got to the museum you began to figure out your strategy with the bomb squad.

“Captain Seymour, I’m Agent (Y/N) (Y/L/N) and this is my partner Dr. Spencer Reid, what can you tell us about what is going on inside?” 

“Not much. 911 calls reported that there was a shot that rang out through the museum, after that, no one could reach them.” He replied with a grim look. You nodded in response and walked back to your team. 

You and Spencer told the team what you learned, “We need to open a line of communication. (Y/L/N), you’re going to take the lead on this while the rest of the team comes up with a plan. Rossi will be here to guide you,” Hotch directed the attention of the team to you. 

You took a deep breath and wrung your hands together. You could see the worry in Spencer’s eyes as you nodded, “Okay. Tell Garcia to forward everything you guys find.” 

As Spencer and the rest of the team left to their respective positions he couldn’t shake the feeling that something bad was going to happen. To say the least, he was worried for you. You were his light in the darkness, he thought he would never find someone like that after Maeve. When Spencer found you, he knew that you were his soulmate. 

He knew was that something was different about this case, he just couldn’t figure out what.

--- 

The phone rang twice before someone picked it up on the other end, “Hello? Who is this?” a gruff voice answered the phone. 

“Hello. My name is Agent (Y/N) (Y/L/N), but you can call me (Y/N). Whom am I speaking with?” 

“Carl Edgar Joseph. You’re speaking with Carl Edgar Joseph.” You looked up at Rossi quickly, he sent the name to Garcia. You were confused, he had given up his identity too quickly. 

“Alright, Carl. I’m here to help you, I can get you out of this. I just need you to let the hostages go. Send the women and children out first.” 

He scoffed, “Why should I do that?” 

You paused for a minute, “(Y/L/N), his younger brother, Raegan, was shot. Someone inside shot him. Use that as leverage.” You nodded as Rossi fed you the information. 

“Carl, I know Raegan is hurt. I can get him the help he needs but only if you give me what I need.” 

You heard him breathing over the phone and then a deep sigh, “There are 4 bombs. One for each door except for the front. I’ll let them all out,” You heard him take another deep breath, “Help Raegan.” 

You saw Hotch signal to SWAT, the Bomb Squad and your own team to move in. All of the hostages were accounted for as well as the Unsubs. All the bombs Joseph told you about were accounted for and disabled. As the rest of the team evacuated the last of the hostages you did a final sweep of the building. You noticed that as you got further in the building your coms began to turn to static. You weren’t worried though, something about the static calmed you. You took your earpiece out and looked to your left and you paused, you were alone with a ticking clock attached to explosives and no way to contact your team.

---

As Derek brought out Carl Joseph, Spencer noticed something was off about him. Joseph locked eyes with Spencer, he smirked, “One more!” he said, his eyes gleamed with malice and ice. 

Derek watched as Spencer approached Carl, “One more what?” 

He grinned, “One more bomb,” and suddenly everything made sense to Spencer. Carl was a classic narcissist. He shot his brother and played (Y/N). He needed the attention, he needed the recognition, he had been planning this for weeks, maybe months, “Everyone will know my name. You’ll never forget it, Carl Edgar Joseph, the man who killed the Princess of the BAU.” 

Penelope, JJ, Emily, Derek, Rossi, and Hotch all stopped in their tracks. Only they called (Y/N), Princess, it was an inside joke regarding her Halloween costume from one year. It was clear that Carl was watching them. He carefully executed his plan to make sure that is was (Y/N) to open a line of communication, he made sure that she was going to be the last one out. He knew that killing a federal agent that held the team together would get the most recognition. (Y/N) was his endgame. 

Derek pushed Carl into the arms of a Metro PD officer and the rest of the team quickly turned to the family center. A large boom echoed across the streets of Washington D.C. JJ, Emily, Derek, and Hotch rushed to Spencer pulling him back from the explosion. 

“LET ME GO” Spencer yelled. The rest of the team struggled to pull the young doctor back from the flames as they watched the burning building helplessly.

--- 

You knew you didn’t have a lot of time. 30 seconds was on the clock and there was no way you could run back to the front of the building. You couldn’t die, not like this. You hadn't told the team you loved them today, you hadn't said "I love you" to Spencer yet. There were still things for you to do. 

You racked your brain for a solution, but then you remembered the blueprints. 300 feet to your right was an exit that led to the back of the safe zone where the team was. You had a chance. You sprinted to the exit and as soon as you stepped out the door, you were thrown by the blast. 

---

As soon as the flames died down Spencer broke through the hold of his colleagues, "Spencer! You can't just go running in there, we don't have eyes in there!" JJ yelled.

"Like hell, I can't. JJ, what if it was Will? I love (Y/N), I can't lose her, " He saw Emily begin to open her mouth, "Spare me the lecture, Emily. I'm going in." He turned away from his team making his way to the building. 

--- 

“Spence! Stop!” You called out. You were clutching your ribs and you felt some blood trickling down your face, but you were alive. You saw Spencer swivel around and sprint to you.

The rest of the team watched as Spencer pulled you into a bone-crushing hug, “Oh my god, you’re okay. You’re alive,” He whispered in your ear. 

“Spence, you’re hurting me.” Your words were muffled by his Kevlar vest but he let you go. 

He looked at you with tear-filled eyes, “You’re alive. You almost died,” he repeated. 

“Of course I’m alive, Spence. The keyword there was almost, I wasn’t going to die without telling you I loved you.” 

He grinned, “I love you too, (Y/N).” He pressed a hard kiss against your lips, never wanting to let you go. 

The team watched as the couple reunited. They were broken apart by a loud whistle, “Alright lovebirds. Let’s get this Princess to the hospital.” Derek said with a smirk. 

The team let out a collective laugh, all relieved that you were safe and sound. The ambulance made an exception and allowed the team to ride in the back with you, they couldn’t help but smile at the faint whispers of ‘I love you’s” and forehead kisses.

You and Spencer were soulmates. There was no doubt about it.

From the moment you and Will spoke, you two had the BAU’s two youngest agents smitten. Granted, JJ was more attracted to Will, but Spencer, Spencer was in awe of you. When JJ and Will were figuring out the case at the bar, you and Spencer were picking each other's brains. For the few days that the team was in New Orleans, you and Spencer knew that there was something between you two.

Every other weekend you or Spencer would try to visit each other, the team only suspected Will and JJ, but no one ever expected that Spencer was in a relationship. 

When the team met with Will and (Y/N) in Miami they were surprised that two relationships were revealed. 

When you and Will were heading back to New Orleans you both were hurt, Spencer nor JJ wanted the team to know about you guys. You and Spencer argued about it the night before and you couldn’t help the feeling that the best relationship you had ever had was over.

“(Y/N)! Wait!” You turned around to the sound of your name being called. JJ made her way to Will as Spencer ran to you. 

The team watched intently, confused as to why Reid and JJ were both going after the two detectives.

“What, Spence? What do you have to say now?” You sounded tired. It took almost everything Spencer had to not smile, he loved the sound of your accent, especially when you were tired.

“(Y/N), I don’t care about them knowing. I don’t care about relocating. The one thing I care about is you. When they know, that means everyone knows. I was kidnapped just last year. If anything bad happened to you I wouldn’t be able to live with myself. Saying this, this makes it real. When it’s real, it hurts.” He took a deep breath, “But I realized losing you would hurt more. I can’t let you go (Y/N).” 

You didn’t even realize that you were crying until you felt tears fall down your cheeks, “I don’t want to let you go either, Spence.” You chuckled as he pulled you in for a searing kiss. 

You and Spencer were pulled out of your trance by a “Wait… What?” from Derek and a, “Are you kidding me?” from Emily. You both laughed as you watched the facial expressions of the team change from smugness to confusion. 

--- 

You had transferred to the Metro PD with Will shorty after the case in Miami, “Boy, if you hurt my sister, I’ll kill you.” You slapped Will on the shoulder as you, Will and the team were hanging out at O’keefe’s, “Uh… likewise, Will.” Spencer said, referring to JJ. After that, you and the team dissolved in a fit of late-night giggles. 

---

After working in D.C for a few years your accent began to fade away. Spencer could tell that you were in some ways forcing it to fade, he knew you were self-conscious of your accent due to the stereotypes that came with it. 

“Spence! It’s like they think I’m less intelligent than they are because of my accent! I have an IQ of 165! I’m smarter than all of them combined!” You groaned and buried your head into his chest. You had just come home and you two were cuddling on the couch when the topic of work came up. Spencer hated it when you came home angry like this. You were one of the smartest people he has ever met.

“Love,” He immediately felt you relax in his arms, “I love you. I love ALL of you. They’re morons if they can’t see past your accent.” 

“Thanks, Spence.” 

---

It was Saturday night, you, Will and the BAU team were miraculously off from work at the same time. Hotch was with Jack and Rossi was with Joy so it was just you, JJ, Will, Spencer, Derek, Penelope, and Emily. You had a hard week and needless to say, you needed alcohol, your friends and your boyfriend. 

“Woah, slow down there Little Mama,” you were on your 6th shot of tequila and you showed no signs of slowing down, “I’m not sure if Reid can handle you like this.” Derek laughed. 

“Y’all’ you said pointing to the entire team, “have no idea what Spence can handle.” You smirked, “You should see him in bed!” You slurred, your accent was more prominent than ever.

“(Y/N)!” Spencer shrieked. 

“Do tell, my Southern Belle” Garcia sauntered over to you. 

“Well, one time after he came back from a case he was LIVID. He said y’all were teasing him about being ‘vanilla’ in bed. Well, honey, he was not vanilla in the least! He picked me up and-” 

You were cut off by Spencer gently pulling you away from Garcia, “And we’re done here! We’ll see you guys later!” 

The team let out a collective groan, “C’mon, 187! I wanted to hear the rest of the story!” Emily whined. 

“You and me both,” JJ said in agreement. 

“Girls night ladies!” You yelled as Spencer pulled you out of the bar. You heard the girls giggle in excitement as the bar door closed. 

--- 

When you two got home you flopped down on the couch, “Babeeeee, can you get my pajamas,” You called out to Spencer. 

You heard a distant chuckle and he came out of the bedroom with his battered and worn Cal-Tech t-shirt and a pair of your sleep shorts, “One step ahead of you.” 

You grabbed the t-shirt and shorts and got changed right in the middle of the living room, “Here, Advil and some water.” 

You grabbed the pills and the water from Spencer, “Thank you” you smiled. 

When you finished getting changed you joined Spencer on the couch, “You didn’t hide your accent tonight.” He mumbled. 

You sighed, your head pounding. You had sobered up a little while ago and all the drinks you had were coming back to bite you in the ass, “Yeah. I decided that you were right.” 

“Right about what?” Spencer smirked, this was his plan all along… minus the gossip about your sex lives. 

You rolled your eyes, “People are morons if they can’t see past my accent. If you love all of me, I should be able to love all of me.” 

“You’re right about that.” Spencer wrapped his arms around you and kissed you on your head. You smiled and kissed him on his cheek.

“I love you, Spence” 

“I love you too, (Y/N). Accent and all.”

Is This Love?

A/N: I was listening to James Arthur as I was doing homework and I had his discography and when this song came on I instantly thought of a Spencer x Reader concept. I’m so excited to write this. I’ve been busy with writing requests but I went through them already. I’ll put all the songs I mentioned with their artists in the end!

Description: When the reader lets it slip that she’s apart of a band and she has a gig after work. When the team begs her to let them come she caves in and gives them VIP passes. At the end of the night, she and her band sing a song that she wrote that she never dreamed the team would hear. 

Character Appearances: Derek Morgan, Penelope Garcia, Spencer Reid, Aaron Hotchner (mentioned), David Rossi, Jennifer “JJ” Jareau, Emily Prentiss

"Hey, Princess, the rest of the gang is going out for drinks. Are you in?" Derek asked as he sat on your desk. 

You groaned, "I wish I could, but I have a gig." 

You hadn't even realized what you said before the rest of the team sat around your desk, "Hold on. Gig? Is our Princess in a band?" Derek said with a smirk.

Your eyes widened, "Uhhh... no?" 

"Oh my god! (Y/N)! Why didn't you tell us?" You heard Penelope scream. 

You shrugged, "I didn't think it was that important." 

"Are you kidding? (Y/N), we have to see you in action." JJ said smiling. 

You thought about it for a minute, you couldn't say no to your family, "Fine," you pulled out seven passes from your purse, "Show these at the door, and they'll let you in right away."

"Yes!" Emily said as she fist-pumped Derek. 

"Hey, guys? Are we going to O'keefe's now?" Spencer said as he emerged from the bathroom. 

"Change of plans, kid. We're going to see (Y/N)'s band," Rossi said. 

"Oh, oka- Wait. You're in a band?" Spencer asked you.

You nodded, "Yup!"

"Since when?" 

"C'mon Pretty Boy, we'll catch you up on the way," Derek said, dragging you and Spencer out of the bullpen. 

--- 

"Oh my god. Who knew that her band was THIS popular," Emily exclaimed.

"That's our girl," Rossi said. The team smiled, ever since you had joined the BAU, Rossi had been like your surrogate father. 

The venue you were playing was filled to the brim, Spencer and the team were in the VIP section which was right in front of the stage. 

"I'm excited," Spencer said. He had never seen you in your element. He had seen you on the field and off but never in your true setting. 

"You and me both, 187," Penelope said. The team nodded in agreement. 

--- 

You were backstage and you were nervous. You had never been this nervous for a gig. 

"Hey, (Y/N). Are you alright?" Your bandmate Michael asked. 

"Yeah Mike, I'm fine. My team is out there and they're like my family. I just don't want to screw this up." 

"Screw what up?" Your other bandmate Nina asked

You rolled your eyes, "We're playing 'Is This Love?' tonight. The person I wrote the song about is right up front and center." 

"Oh my god. The mysterious Dr. Reid is here? Finally!" Your bassist, Matty said. 

"Shut up." You said as you grabbed your mic, preparing to go on stage. 

You heard the screams of excitement coming from the audience as the lights went down, "That's our cue." 

You walked onto the stage, "D.C, are we ready?"

--- 

The team was in awe of you, your band, and your voice. It was one of the very few times that the entire team was speechless. You had just finished singing Sermon and your voice was tired. As Matty was talking to the audience you were internally preparing yourself for the next song. You knew that you would be vulnerable but you had to sing it, it definitely the most popular amongst your fans and you couldn't let them down. 

"I want to turn your attention to the beautiful and very talented, (Y/N)." 

You gave the audience a bright smile as they shouted your name. You spotted your team in the crowd immediately and you laughed at Spencer as he gave you a thumbs up. 

"Every show we play is special, but playing a show in my city is incredible. This show is especially near and dear to my heart because my family is here," you laughed as you hear a loud scream from Penelope, "Anyways, this next song has to be one of my favorites. I wrote it for a special someone," you gave a dramatic pause to keep the audience on edge, but when you locked eyes with Spencer, you were speechless. You cleared your throat and continued, "this song is about all of your emotions coming to the front line, it's about being vulnerable and being able to feel. I hope you enjoy." 

The crowd cheered as you signaled to the band to start playing. 

I must've walked these streets about a million times

I thought I knew them well but maybe I was blind

'Cause everything's brand new

You remembered the first time you realized you were in love with Spencer. You were both walking home from work and you almost tripped but he caught you. You had walked this way together countless times and you had never stumbled, "I got you," he whispered, and right there, everything changed. 

Thought I knew my heartbeat but it was out of time

It's like my lungs are opening for the first time

Ever since I met you

And I'm on my way now

Whenever you saw Spencer, it was a breath of fresh air. You had known him for 5 years and loved him for 3. 

Is this love, really love?

Is this love, really love?

Ohhh ohhh

As soon as you sang those words, the message clicked. The team looked at you and then back at Spencer in shock. They couldn't believe it. Their Princess was in love with Pretty Boy. Spencer, on the other hand, was speechless. He never imagined that you would be singing a song about him on a stage with a venue full of people.

I swear that I was heading down a darker road

You got through my guard when I was in safety mode

Darling, you're such a view

Spencer was the only one you opened up to after cases, you let him in. Every time you looked at each other it was like you shared something new.

You're burning down my walls like the Miami sun

You're the one to blame, you hold a smoking gun

So take your aim and shoot

And I'm on my way now

Spencer broke the barrier between you and the team. He helped you become part of the family. You just wished that he felt the same way about you.   

Is this love? Really love?

Is this love? Really love?

I need to know, need to know

'Cause I've never been this close

Is this love, is this love?

Really love, really love?

You remember telling your band about Spencer. You were drunk and you said those exact words. You had written the song in 10 minutes and when you showed it to the band, they loved it. 

So all these demons I'm letting go

'Cause I can see what is beautiful

It finally feels like I'm coming home

Whenever you saw Spencer and the team you knew it was home. You let go of the horror you saw every day when you were with them. 

You sang the chorus and the bridge again and then the song was over. You looked over to the team and you saw beaming smiles all around. When you made eye contact with Spencer you could tell he was in shock. You giggled into the mic and continued with your setlist. 

---

You ended the night with 'Train Wreck' which always took a lot out of you. The team was mingling with your band which made you really happy. You heard a knock at the dressing room door, "Come in!" you shouted. 

You saw Spencer through the mirror and you stiffened. 

"Hey, Spence," You said quietly. 

"Hey," He replied.

"Look, Spence, I'm really sorry. I know you came to have a good time and I just dropped a major bomb on you. I'm so sorry," you said in a hurried voice. 

"(Y/N), I had a great time. Seeing you in your element was amazing. You're incredible." 

You blushed, "Thanks, Spence."

"Can I ask you a question?" 

 "Of course," you said. Your palms began to sweat, you knew what was coming. 

"Was that song, the one you gave a speech about, was that for me?" 

You nodded sheepishly, "Yes." 

"How long have you known?" 

"3 years ago. When I tripped walking home and you caught me." You were looking down at your feet, you were scared to reach his eyes.

"(Y/N), look at me," you looked at him and he grabbed your hand, " I've loved you for 4 years." 

Your eyes widened in shock, "You have?" 

"Yes. (Y/N), I am completely and utterly in love with you," he grabbed the side of your face gently, "tell me if you want me to stop." 

He leaned in slowly and captured your lips with his. You leaned into the kiss and your lips fell in sync with his. The only thing that mattered to you was Spencer. You wrapped your hands around his neck as he wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you closer. 

 You heard a loud whistle and you broke apart. You looked back at your team and the band. 

"Finally! The sexual tension was unbearable," Rossi said. 

"Nice job, Pretty Boy," Derek said clapping Spencer on the back. 

“Garcia! Did you take a video?” Spencer said pointedly at Penelope.

“It’s for Hotch, he asked me too!”

--- 

Your band had left already so you were alone with Spencer and the team. Before you all went your separate ways, JJ, Emily, and Penelope pulled you away. 

"At the next girls night, you HAVE to tell us what happens after we leave," JJ said, sending you a suggestive look. 

"Oh my god, yes! I've always wondered what Reid was like in bed," Emily said. 

Garcia let out a shriek, "Have fun, (Y/N)" 

You rolled your eyes, "I'll never hear the end of this, will I?"

"Nope! You wrote a song about him and performed it with a secret band we didn't know about until today. I don't expect this to die down anytime soon," JJ said. 

You shrugged, "It got me to where we are now so I can't be too mad. I'll see you ladies tomorrow!" 

You said your goodbye's and then you were alone with Spencer, he grabbed your hand. 

"What do we do now?" You asked looking up at him. 

"Well..." he had a mischevious look in his eye, "I have an idea." 

You gasped, "Spencer Reid! Are you asking me to sleep with you?"

He laughed, "In my professional opinion, I believe it's long overdue." 

"In that case, I completely agree."

Other people on the street smiled as they watched the young couple chase each other home.

It was one of those rare Saturday nights when you and Spencer were free from work. You two hadn't been home in a week, and he wanted to do something special. 

"Spence! Will you tell me where we're going?" you said with a laugh. 

"Be patient, babe," he replied with his fingers tapping on the steering wheel. 

You slowly slid a hand up his denim-covered thigh, "Why can't you tell me?" 

Spencer rolled his eyes and placed your hand on your thigh and then covered it with his, "You are not getting the answer that easily."

--- 

"Oh my god!" you said excitedly while grabbing Spencer's hand, "a Jack O Lantern festival! I've always wanted to go to one of these!" 

Spencer smiled, "I know." 

"Aha! So you do listen to me." 

"(Y/N), I've hung on to your every word since you walked into the BAU six years ago."

Even though you and Spencer had been together for almost a year, you couldn't help but blush. You hadn't told the team yet for safety reasons. Unfortunately, it was quite common for people to get hurt in your line of work. Anything personal was fair game for unsubs trying to harm the team.

You smiled, "And yet you're still the charmer."

"What do you want to do first?" He asked. 

"The Pumpkin Planetarium," you said with a bright smile.

"Pumpkin Planetarium it is." 

--- 

JJ pulled into the parking lot of the festival with two screaming boys in the backseat of her car. Will was working, and Spencer told her that he couldn't help her babysit. 

JJ turned around and faced the back seat, "Michael and Henry! If you boys can't stop fighting I am turning this car back around, we won't go to the festival, and you will NOT see Uncle Spence next week." 

The boys immediately settled down after they heard that they wouldn't see their godfather. JJ smiled, she would have to use the 'Uncle Spence tactic' more often. 

As she was leading her boys into the festival she spotted a car that looked like Spencer's car. She brushed off the thought and made sure she had everything she needed before entering the festival. 

"Okay boys, what do you want to do first?" JJ asked her sons. 

"Can we make Jack O Lanterns?" Henry asked. 

"Please, Mommy!" Michael exclaimed in agreement. 

"Of course we can, Silly Billy's!" JJ said, wrapping her arms around her two boys. 

"I'm gonna make one for Uncle Spence and Auntie Penny!" Michael said.

"And I'm going to make one for Emily and (Y/N)!" Henry 

"I'm sure they're going to love it," JJ said warmly.

---

"Spencer, if you drag me into that haunted house, I swear to god, I will kill you," you said sternly. 

"(Y/N), you know better than to threaten an FBI agent," Spencer said with a grin. 

"Spencer, you know better than to test me, an FBI agent," you replied. If looks could kill, Spencer would be long gone.

 "Please, (Y/N)," Spencer whined.

You groaned, "Fine. But remember that I am armed."

Spencer dragged you into the haunted house, "So am I." 

--- 

"Mommy, can we go to the Pumpkin Planetarium?" Henry asked. 

JJ smiled. She could tell that Henry idolized Spencer. Henry wanted to be just like Spencer when he grew up. 

"I swear to god, I will kill you," JJ heard someone say. 

She whipped her head around, it sounded exactly like you. There was no way you were here, but nevertheless, she discretely rested her hand on her firearm, but after she heard laughter coming from the same direction, she let her guard down.

"Mommy? Are you okay?" Michael said, tugging on his mother's jacket. 

"Yeah, sweetie. Let's go." 

--- 

You hadn't let go of Spencer's arm throughout the entire haunted house. You had seen some terrifying things over the years, but you had never gotten over your fear of haunted houses. 

"If we head over to the field," Spencer checked his watch, "now, we can make it to the light show." 

"Let's go!" You laughed, dragging Spencer through the crowd. 

--- 

"Boys! Let's hurry so we can catch the light show," JJ called to her sons.

"We're coming!" Henry said, dragging Michael being him. 

--- 

Spencer laid down a blanket Penelope gave him. He smiled to himself when he remembered what she said, "When you're ready to snuggle up with someone for the rest of your life." 

You were that someone.

"Spence, why are you staring at me like that?" You said smiling. 

"I don't know. I just really love you." He said, snuggling up to you on the blanket. 

"I love you too." 

--- 

As Henry, Michael, and JJ got situated on their blanket, JJ had no idea that her team members, Spencer and (Y/N), were two spots in front of them. 

She heard a young couple share, "I love you's," and she couldn't help but smile. As she listened closely, she realized that it sounded exactly like Spencer and (Y/N). She brushed it off as her own imagination. 

She watched as the young couple leaned into one another for a kiss, she was startled by a yell of, "Uncle Spence!" and "(Y/N)!" 

Her mouth dropped open in shock as the couple turned around and she was face to face with her team members. 

--- 

As Spencer leaned in to kiss you, you jumped apart. 

"Uncle Spence!" 

"(Y/N)!" 

"Oh my god," you mumbled. You and Spencer turned around to face a shocked JJ. 

"Are you kidding me?" JJ exclaimed. 

"Uh... surprise?" You said sheepishly. 

"How long has this," JJ motioned between you two, "going on?" 

"11 months and 12 days," Spencer confirmed. 

"Does anyone else know?" She asked.

"Only Strauss and Hotch," Spencer mumbled. 

"Why did you keep it a secret from us?" 

"It was for your safety as well as ours. JJ, you know how hard this job is, you know the risks," you said. 

 "So not even Derek knows?" She said with a smirk.

"Nope!" You said. 

"JJ, please don't tell anyone. We were planning on telling everyone next week at the family dinner," Spencer pleaded. 

"Of course, Spence," she said with a smile. 

"Hey, JJ, do you and the boys want to join us?" You asked. Michael was already curled up on your lap and Henry was desperate to spend time with his uncle. 

"I don't think you have a choice, (Y/N)," JJ laughed. 

As the night went on, Henry fell asleep on Spencer and Michael fell asleep on you. 

JJ smiled warmly before she whispered, "I'm happy for you two. The team will be so excited." 

"Thanks, JJ," you whispered back.

She gave you a quick peck on the cheek, "Hey!" Spencer whined, "that's my girlfriend!" 

You and JJ let out a laugh and you felt a weight lift off your shoulder. You and Spencer were one step closer to being public and you wouldn't have it any other way.

You had been with the BAU for a month and it had already been one hell of a ride. You had an instant love connection with the team, JJ, Garica, and Emily were like the sisters you never had. Hotch and Rossi were the father figures of the team and you were extremely grateful for them. But Derek was a different story. As soon as you got to the BAU, you knew you had his attention. Any chance he got he flirted with you but you didn't mind the playful banter and if you ever got uncomfortable you knew he would stop. Derek's flirting and the team's unawareness annoyed Spencer. 

You always told Spencer that you only had eyes for him and he appreciated your reassurance but it didn’t stop him from feeling annoyed. 

---

You were sitting at your desk across from Spencer's and you felt eyes on you. You automatically knew it was Derek. 

"Morgan, if you see something you like, I suggest you take a  photo." 

"If I took a picture of everything that I liked it would only be pictures of you, (Y/N)."

You heard Spencer scoff which got everyone's attention. 

"Is there something wrong, Spence?" JJ asked, concern lacing her voice. 

 "Nothing's wrong JJ. Absolutely nothing," Spencer stood up suddenly and walked over to the break room.  You waited a few seconds before following him.

"What's got Pretty Boy's panties in a twist?" Derek mumbled. 

JJ and Emily shared a look, "You," they said in unison. 

"Me? What did I do?" Derek asked.

"It's what you've been doing with (Y/N), Chocolate Thunder," Penelope said as she walked into the bullpen. 

"(Y/N)? What does (Y/N) have to do with Reid and Morgan?" Emily asked. 

"For profilers, you sure are blind... then again, you aren't me. When I came back from my coffee run last week I heard strange noises coming from the supply closet," she said wiggling her eyebrows. 

"Oh my god? Are you serious?" JJ exclaimed. 

"Pen, are you COMPLETELY sure?” Emily asked. 

"I've never been surer of anything in my life. Except for the decision to work here," Garcia said, winking at Derek. 

Derek groaned, "Are you serious? Is no one going to tell me what is going on?" 

"Nope!" Penelope said popping the p.

--- 

You made sure no one else but you and Spencer were in the break room before shutting and locking the door. 

"Spence, what the hell was that about? I thought we agreed to keep everything on the down-low!" You said in a harsh whisper. You were shocked, Spencer wasn't the type to have an outburst of attitude. 

"Screw that!" He replied, "I hate seeing Derek flirt with you. He could have any girl he wanted but of course, he wants you, the one girl he can't have. You're my girlfriend and it infuriates me when he flirts with you." 

You couldn't help but smile as you placed your hands on Spencer's shoulders, "Spencer, I only have eyes for you. I wish you would have told me. We could tell the team right now if you want."

"I think JJ, Prentiss, and Garcia suspect us already. I don't think Garcia quite forgot the closet incident."

You slapped Spencer's arm, "What about Morgan?" You asked. 

Spencer smirked, "Since we're all going out tonight he told me that he planned on asking you out."

You gasped, knowing where he was going with this, "You little devil!" 

"Please, (Y/N). I have to get him back for the prank he pulled on me last week." 

You smiled and rolled your eyes, "Fine. Only for you." 

"You're the best." He said as he kissed your cheek.

"I know!" You said and grinned when Spencer let out a laugh. 

---

It was finally the end of the day and you, Spencer and the rest of the team went out for drinks. You and Spencer had discussed the plan beforehand and you couldn't wait to see the reactions from your team.

"Hey, I'm going to get another round. Does anyone want to come with me?" You announced to the group. 

"I'll go with you, Little Mama," Derek said. 

You saw Spencer's smug look out of the corner of your eye. Morgan took the bait. 

When you and Morgan were sitting at the bar waiting for your drinks you knew what was coming. 

"Hey, (Y/N)... Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure! What's up?" 

"Well, I know we've been going back and forth for the past month but I just wanted to ask if I could take you out to dinner one day... like on a date?" 

You sucked in a breath, "I'm really sorry Derek, but I only really see you as a friend. Don't get me wrong, I love our banter but I just don't see you in that way." 

He chuckled, "No worries, (Y/N). At least I tried." 

You laughed, "Yup! At least you tried." 

You brought your drinks back to the table. You watched as Morgan, Hotch, Rossi, and Spencer sat in a group. You knew without a doubt that they were going to try to get Spencer to make a move on you. As you watched the guys, JJ, Emily and Garcia were trying to get you to spill all the details on your relationship with Spencer. 

"C'mon, (Y/N)! Just give us a hint!" Emily pleaded. 

"Shhhh. You'll find out soon enough," you replied with a mischievous look. 

"Wait! I know that look! She's hiding someth-" JJ was suddenly cut off by Spencer. 

"Hey (Y/N), do you want to dance?" Spencer asked. 

"I would love to," you replied with a smile. 

The team watched in awe as you and Spencer danced effortlessly on the dance floor. 

"Ready for the grand finale?" Spencer whispered in your ear. 

"I'm always ready." 

Spencer grabbed your waist and pulled you into a searing kiss. You smiled against his lips as you heard a few screams of excitement coming from the girls and a, "Are you kidding me?" from Derek. 

When you two made your way back to the team you weren't surprised to see Hotch's bemused look, Derek's shocked expression, the smug looks coming from JJ and Emily, and the fact that Garcia was receiving all of the winning money from bets made. You rolled your eyes at the stack of cash she was stuffing into her purse. 

"Of course Pretty Boy gets the new agent," Derek said, clapping Spencer on the back. 

"I'm glad I did," Spencer said, his smile lighting up the entire bar. 

"I'm glad you did too," you said as he wrapped his arm around your shoulders.

Rossi let out a groan, "We need more drinks. I've enough of young love." 

You and the team broke out into a fit of late-night laughter. You couldn't wait to spend more time with your new family.

You sat at your desk and used your pen as a fidget. It was something you did quite often, so the team didn't think much of it. Truthfully, you were agitated. You and Spencer were planning on telling the team soon but you weren't sure how they would react. 

"Hello, my crime-fighting friends," you smiled as Garcia entered the bullpen, "I cordially invite you all to my Halloween party! If you are not in a costume," she said looking at Spencer, "I will NEVER speak to you again." 

You heard Morgan chuckle, "Now you have to dress up, Pretty Boy."

Spencer nodded, "I guess I do."

You laughed as Penelope exited the bullpen looking satisfied. 

Moments later you felt a buzzing in your pocket, it was a text from Spence. 

[Spencer]: Couples Costume?

You grinned at the text, Spencer was never one to be bold, but this idea was perfect. You sent a quick text back. 

[txt]: I like that idea

You quickly finished your report and headed to Garcia's lair. 

"Enter at your own risk, mortal," Garcia yelled.

"It's me, Penny!"

"(Y/N)! Care Bear! What brings you to my lair?" 

"I need costume ideas," you cleared your throat, "specifically, couples costume ideas."

Her eyebrows shot up, "Couples costume! (Y/N)! Since when?"

You smiled, "You'll find out at your party."

"Keeping me in the dark? Vindictive!" She paused and you could see the gears turning in her head, "Bonnie and Clyde. With our line of work, it's almost perfect. You would look hot!" 

You grinned, it was perfect.

---

You quickly ran into JJ's office and shut the door. 

"(Y/N)? What's wrong?" JJ asked. 

"JJ, everything is perfect."

"Perfect? What's perfect?"

"Bonnie and Clyde. Bonnie and Clyde are perfect."

"(Y/N), do I need to order a drug test? What is so perfect about Bonnie and Clyde?" JJ asked, her voice laced with confusion.

"I'm going to talk to Spence about going to Garcia's party as Bonnie and Clyde."

JJ wiggled her eyebrows, "It's about time."

You laughed and quickly grabbed a case file, "Should I grab this file, so I don't seem too suspicious." 

JJ laughed, "That might be a good idea."

---

You and Spencer had just finished some Chinese take-out and you were enjoying a Harry Potter marathon on Spencer's couch. 

"Hey, Spence," you said, nudging your boyfriend's shoulder. 

"Yeah?"

"I have an idea," you said smiling up at him. 

He hummed, "what is this idea?" 

"We should go to Garcia's party as Bonnie and Clyde."

"Bonnie and Clyde?" Spencer let out a laugh, "that's a bit ironic, don't you think?" 

You shrugged, "Maybe, but Garcia said I would look hot."

He raised his eyebrows, "I might want to see that." 

You smirked, "You will."

---

Penelope was excited, the entire team, excluding you and Spencer, were at her house. JJ, Will and the boys were the Flintstones, Derek and Savannah were Danny and Sandy from Grease, and Emily was Catwoman. 

Hotch and Rossi were with their families but Penelope didn't mind. Penelope was excited to see your costume with your unnamed partner. She wondered why Spencer was late because he was never late... to anything.

---

You had styled your hair the best you could to mimic Bonnie's. JJ had given you an old pencil skirt of hers but you had altered it to fit your frame. You looked at your reflection one last time in the mirror and you smiled, you really did look hot. The shirt you were wearing combined with the skirt and your thigh holster made you feel confident and sexy. 

"Woah," you heard Spencer say. 

You quickly turned around and looked Spencer up and down, his pinstripe suit made you want to jump him right then and there, "Woah yourself," you said with a smirk. 

Spencer checked his watch, "We should get going."

You nodded but you began wringing your hands, "Hey," you felt a hand on your shoulder, "we don't have to do this if you don't want to. We can always do it another day." 

You turned to Spencer, "No, I'm fine! Just a little nervous."

"(Y/N), you heard JJ, the team will be fine."

You took a deep breath, "Alright, let's go."

---

Penelope heard a knock at her door, "Finally! Reid is here."

JJ smirked, "Yup! Finally."

Emily sauntered over to JJ, "Do you know something we don't?" 

"You'll find out soon enough, Em." 

---

As Garcia opened the door she let out a gasp, "No way!" 

"Baby Girl? Are you oka-" Morgan's voice died in his throat. 

"Guys? What's going on?" Emily appeared at the door. 

As you and Spencer walked through the door everyone was in shock. You two were Bonnie and Clyde. 

"Little Mama and Pretty Boy? What the hell?" Derek exclaimed. 

JJ stifled a laugh, "JJ! You knew?" Emily yelled.

"Yeah, me and the boys found out about two weeks ago.  We caught them at the Jack O Lantern festival."

Penelope pulled you and Spencer into a tight hug, "I am still angry at you both for not telling us, but, I can't be too mad. I can't wait for my new god babies." 

"Let them breathe, Baby Girl," Derek said with a laugh. 

"Sorry we're a little late, we got held up."

Emily and Derek chuckled, "We can see that."

You and Spencer looked at them in confusion, "(Y/N), you have a little something on your neck," Emily confirmed.

"Spence! I told you not to leave a mark!" 

"I'm sorry!" He said sheepishly. 

"I don't blame him, Little Mama. If Savannah was dressed like that," he quickly glanced at his girlfriend who was playing with Henry, "we wouldn't have made it out of the house."

You blushed, "We almost didn't," you heard Spencer mumble. 

Emily raised her eyebrows and laughed as you gave Spencer a playful slap on the arm. 

The team burst into a fit of laughter as Spencer sent you a smirk. You rolled your eyes, you were never going to hear the end of this.

The New Agent - Part 1

Request: “Hey, I got an idea for a Spencer x reader story, maybe smth with more than 1 part 😅 Spencer meeting y/n at a book store/reading and they get to know each other pretty well. 2 weeks later y/n shows up the BAU as their new boss and Morgan/Luke starts flirting with her. 😅” -  @kind-im-gedankennebel

A/N: This concept is so cute! I kinda tweaked it so Spencer and the reader have been kinda dating for 3 weeks before she starts at the BAU so their relationship would be stronger and instead of being the boss I made the reader a colleague. It makes more sense once you read it. But yay! My first multi-part series (even though it’s only two parts). If this flops, Gideon wrote this. The second part is a timeskip! 

Description: When the reader is a New York City field agent interviewing for a position at the BAU gets hopelessly lost in D.C. She meets Dr. Spencer Reid at a bookstore who makes her time in D.C much more enjoyable. 

Disclaimer: I don’t own Criminal Minds! I wish I did!

As you sat in your hotel room preparing material for your final interview while simultaneously trying to get dressed, you groaned. You knew the interview process for a position at the BAU in Quantico was extensive... but you didn’t know that it was this long. You were apart of the group of finalists for the new position on the team and you had planned to be in D.C for 2 weeks and Agent Hotchner had requested you to stay for another week. Even though the interview process was kicking your ass, it wasn't all bad. On your first day in D.C, you were terribly lost and you stopped into a bookstore to gather your bearings, it was there where you met Dr. Spencer Reid, who coincidently worked for the BAU. 

You smiled at the memory of your first encounter.

---

"You would expect a bookstore would have a map or something!" you mumbled angrily to yourself. You were stressed, tired and angry. New York City was so much easier to navigate than Washington D.C. 

"Excuse me, are you lost?" You turned around to the sound of someone addressing you.

You looked at the man who approached you up and down, hazel eyes, disheveled curly hair and a purple shirt with a purple tie and dress pants. You smiled to yourself, you thought he was kind of cute.  

You nodded and chuckled, "Is it really that obvious?" 

The mysterious man replied, "Dreadfully so."

"I'm (Y/N). (Y/N) (Y/L/N)." You said sticking your hand out.

"I'm Dr. Spencer Reid," his eyes flicked to your outstretched hand, "I'm really sorry, I don't usually shake hands. Actually, kissing -" 

"Kissing passes fewer pathogens than shaking hands," you finished with a smile, "No worries." 

Spencer smiled, "If you don't mind, I could show you around the city. It's my day off." 

"That would be amazing."

--- 

You two spent the rest of the day talking endlessly and you were surprised when he asked to see you again. You had told him that you were in town for a job interview but that didn't seem to bother him, Spencer was obviously comfortable around you and you were comfortable around him. After being in D.C for 3 weeks you had spent almost every day hanging out with Spencer. You found it extremely sweet that he went to your hotel room every night after work and took you somewhere new but you were confused. You felt like you were in limbo with Spencer, you weren't sure what your relationship was... you were certainly attracted to him and you hoped he was attracted to you, you knew that you might not stay in D.C but you wanted to try and make things work. You were shaken out of from your train of thought from a knock at your door. 

Spencer had told you to dress up and you had no idea why. You smoothed out your dress and opened the door. Spencer was dressed in a white button-down and a pair of black slacks with his classic black converse. As you took in his appearance you wondered how something so simple could look so good. 

"Y-you look beautiful," Spencer stuttered, his face slowly turned pink as he took in your appearance. 

You smiled and felt the heat rise in your neck, "Thank you. You don't look too bad yourself." 

As you and Spencer made your way to a fancy Italian restaurant and you were having a great time. You loved talking to Spencer and just loved being around him. You didn't want this to end. 

Halfway through dinner, the BAU was brought up, "Hotch finally chose someone for the position. He was driving himself crazy, I know for a fact he'll probably call them tonight." 

Your palms began to sweat, you really hoped you got the position, "I hope they get along with your team. From what you told me, you guys seem like a very close-knit family." 

Spencer smiled fondly, "Yeah, we are." 

--- 

After dinner, you two decided to take a walk in the park. Your hands kept brushing against each other and Spencer decided he couldn't take it anymore, he grabbed your hand and you shared a smile. 

When Spencer found a park bench you two sat down, " (Y/N), I have a question." 

You faced Spencer, "What is it?"

He took a deep breath, "I know we've only known each other for a short amount of time but I feel like I've known you for a lifetime. For the past 3 weeks, there hasn't been a minute where you weren't on my mind. I know you might not be here for too long but I would be over the moon if you would do me the honor of being my girlfriend." 

Your eyes were wide, "Spence, I would love to be your girlfriend."

Spencer let out a breath of air he didn't know he was holding. His eyes looked to your lips and then back to your eyes, you smiled and nodded, giving him permission. 

Spencer pulled you into a sweet kiss that you wished could last forever. It was one of those kisses that only existed in movies. You broke apart due to the shrill ring of your cell phone. 

"Is this (Y/N) (Y/L/N)?" You heard on the other line. 

"This is she. How can I help you?" You asked. Spencer looked at you with a confused expression as he listened to the other line. 

"This is SSA Aaron Hotchner with the BAU. I understand I've put you through an extensive interview process and I'm sorry that I didn't get the chance to meet with you personally today. I wanted to inform you that you've been hired. Your 5 years with the New York City field office was extremely impressive. Welcome to the team Agent (Y/L/N)." 

You looked at Spencer in disbelief, "Thank you so much, sir. I look forward to working with you." 

"As do I. Have a good night (Y/N)."

You hung up the phone and shakily put it back in your purse. 

"Spencer, I'm so sorry I didn't tell you earlier. I didn't want to get my hopes up and you're hopes up. I completely understand if you don't want to go through with this relationshi-" 

He cut you off with a quick kiss, "(Y/N), I am so happy you're the new member of our team. Garcia, Prentiss, and JJ are going to adore you. In fact, Morgan might love you so much, he might try to steal you from me."

You let out a loud laugh, "What does this mean for us?" 

"Well, we have to tell Hotch but he won't mind. Rossi can't say anything because he was the reason why the fraternization rule was put in place. The rest of the team will most likely figure it out on their own." He said while playing with your hair. 

You hummed, "Now what?"

"Well," he smiled cheekily, "you could grab your stuff from your hotel room and spend the night at my apartment. Just so you can get a head start on work tomorrow and until you find yourself a place." 

You gave him a peck on the cheek, "I like the sound of that."

He stood up from the park bench and reached out a hand, "Perfect."
