Pairing: Spencer Reid x Fem!Reader (Fluff)
Word Count: 2.2k
Spencer sees red when he walks out of the jewelry store after shooting the unsub.
JJ is the first girl he has ever asked out, someone he pined over for years after her subtle rejection at the Redskins game. He understood her reasoning. It would have been impractical for them to add relationship highs and lows to everything the BAU has been through over fourteen years, and that's if they stayed together. If they hadn't, things would have been even more complicated.
Also she just generally didn't like him that way. Or so he thought.
It didn't mean she wasn't his ideal for many years. His first love, who had so many traits he didn't have that he desperately wanted.
His confirmation he would be unlucky in love came after that with Maeve, who he once again thought could be the one for him. And then he realized that maybe the person for him had been taken away from him.
Then he met Y/n, and it all seemed worth it. All those terrible nights of crying and feeling like he would forever be alone, all the times he was the only single one on the team, knowing everyone was going home to someone they loved unconditionally and relied on for support.
She's the sun and the moon, and he fell in love so fast he couldn't stop it. Luckily, she did too.
Until JJ fucked it up.
The truth she had to tell to get them out alive dropped an atomic bomb on his newly formed life plans.
Spencer doesn't speak to her that night as they finish their recounts and reports. She leaves it out, though, he discovers, opting to write the secret about her miscarriage instead of confessing her love for her best friend and the godfather of her kids.
It messes with his head the whole way home. He can't sleep on the jet, even if he wanted to as he tried to work out what he was feeling.
All JJ does is send him pleading looks, and all he does is get angry because how dare she do this now? After she had fifteen years of them working together, all those chances to tell him how she felt.
He would have married and had a family with her, the family he always wanted. It's always stayed in the back of his head for so long, and just as he sees someone else in that role in his dreams, she drudges all of it back up.
It's such a long flight, and he taps his foot the whole way while staring out the window, not even able to read.
He goes to Y/n's. He's not sure what he's going to say, how much of it he's going to tell her, but he needs to see her to cool off the fury boiling out of him.
"Hey, handsome." She calls out when he walks in the door as cheerful as ever.
He feels a pit of guilt sink into his stomach because he can't tell her without ruining everything they delicately have put together. Maybe it's wrong to lie by omission, but his brain keeps coming back to fault. And it's JJ's fault. She's the one who's jeopardizing everything.
"Hi, gorgeous." He replies, walking into the living room to find her laying on the couch, book in her hands and her head on the armrest. He's reminded how accurate the petname he calls her by is when he's taken off guard by her breathless beauty. "How are you liking it?" He asks.
"It's good." She answers, putting the book down. "But that's because it's very you."
She gets up, meeting him behind the couch to cup his jaw, stroking over his skin and staring into his eyes for a moment before kissing him properly.
He relaxes into it, the tension in his shoulders easing and his brain slowing down for a moment. It's heavenly, as always, and it's what being loved is meant to feel like.
"How was your case?" She asks when she pulls back, still not daring to move too far away from him.
He tenses instantly at that, totally readable behavior, but he's got to perfect excuse to play it off. "It was rough." He holds out his bandaged hand that he's been avoiding showing her. "I got hurt."
"Shit." She straightens up, noticing how big it looked. "What happened?"
"Cut it on glass." He answers, not going as far as to say where he was when it occurred. "I'm fine, though. Promise."
She nods, reassured. "We've got to be up in, like, six hours, you know?" She reminds him of the time.
With the amount of coffee and adrenaline in his system, he barely registered it was already past 2 in the morning. Usually, they would have stayed in LA for the night, but being home in time for Rossi's wedding trumped a good night of sleep for everyone.
"Can I sleep here?" He wonders, awkwardly looking down at his feet.
"Duh. I'm not going to kick you out and make you come pick me up so we can go tomorrow morning." She jokes. "Picked up your suit, too. You're going to look very handsome."
Spencer grins because she seriously can't get more perfect. She still feels so unattainable, but he'd do anything to make sure he doesn't lose her.
He really should tell her, but he can't. Not right now.
Y/n snaps him out of it. "Bedtime now?"
"Please." He agrees gratefully, keeping his arms wrapped around her while they walk to her bedroom.
He keeps her close while they go through the motions of getting ready for bed. Spencer quickly sheds his suit and both of them brush their teeth.
His head is on the pillow for only a few seconds before he's asleep, and she follows soon after.
The alarm going off isn't as much of a problem when Spencer is lying in bed next to her, arm wrapped around her waist. It's one of the things she misses a lot when he's away.
"Hi, beautiful," Spencer whispers, a husky voice as always. He's glad he fell asleep quickly, not having wanted to sit up thinking about the stupid things JJ has said. He just couldn't understand why it was coming up now. Sleep provided absolutely no clarity.
She grins at him. "Hi."
"Are you ready for today?" He asks softly.
"A little nervous," Y/n admits. The BAU is his family after all. His mom is there but the BAU has been where he's spent most of his life for the last 15 years.
"They'll love you." Because I love you. Spencer assures her.
She smiles softly, feeling a little better. "Let's get up then."
Spencer agrees, not before planting a few kisses on her lips and hugging her tightly.
They get ready side by side, feeling a great sense of domesticity. She's never gotten close to someone as quickly as she has with Spencer. Somehow, it's not scary that it's happened this way.
"Wow, you're very gorgeous," Spencer tells her as she touches up the final strand of her hair, adding enough hairspray that it won't fall out. He stands in the doorway of the bathroom, admiring her. "Wow."
"Thank you." Y/n spins around to look at him in his deep maroon suit. It matches her dress color which she agrees looks very nice on her. "And you're very handsome."
"Ready? The car is coming soon." He says.
She nods, fixing her bracelet. "Let's do it."
There are still some nerves as the car takes them to the venue. Spencer does a good job of assuring her it'll be okay, his hand like a magnet to her thigh. He seems slightly off like there's something out of place, but she shrugs it off. She hopes he's being cute and afraid his friends still say something embarrassing.
The venue and interior are exquisite as they make their way in. She takes a deep breath before they come across the man of the day, welcoming everyone at the entrance. She has no doubt that the value of the artwork in this room totals her apartment and everything in it.
"Spencer." Rossi, supposably, greets him in a tight hug.
"This is my girlfriend, Y/n." Spencer introduces them.
As she expects, and as she was warned about by Spencer, Rossi pulls her in for a hug, immediately calming her nerves with his warm greeting. "It's so nice to meet you. This one won't stop talking about you." Rossi jokes, nodding at an increasingly reddening Spencer.
"It's nice to meet you too." She smiles. "Thank you for inviting me."
Rossi nods. "Of course, it's a pleasure."
And then the rest of the introductions begin. Everyone's so kind, like she expected. She's seen photos and heard stories but everyone seems to have more personality than he conveyed. She's quickly fast friends with Penelope and Tara who do their absolute best to make sure Y/n's feeling comfortable.
It's how she ends up being dragged onto the dance floor after the ceremony. Once the alcohol starts flowing, there's no more anxiousness left and some extroverted spirit has been brought out.
Spencer's not one to dance, but he's one to admire. Only Y/n, though. She looks angelic, despite the old-style dance moves.
He's so wrapped up in watching her that he doesn't register JJ's heels on the ground as she approaches him. It's only when she sits next to him that his head turns around to face her.
He waits for her to speak first. Hopefully, provide some explanation.
"Spencer." She says his name softly, almost like how he used to imagine she'd say it if they were together. Much to his surprise, she doesn't go into any detail about the bomb she'd dropped less than 24 hours ago. "I'm worried about you."
He doesn't hide his scoff. "Worried about me?" He repeats.
She goes for another tactic, trying not to get him mad. "You don't think you're rushing into this?"
"Rushing into what, Jennifer?" He spits back, snapping to anger. Using her first name drives the point home, almost unnecessarily when he sounds so angered.
"You know what I mean." She continues. "You've only been talking about her for a few weeks and now she's here."
He can't fathom that she'd suggest he's rushing into a relationship. He's been careful and deliberate, but Y/n's safe, and she's proved it time and time again.
"She's been part of my life for 6 months." Spencer fact-checks her. "And you said I seemed happier since I met her."
JJ stalls, regrouping before trying another angle. "She's just not what I expected. Is she really the type you should be with?"
"What does that mean?" Spencer states, more furious than ever. There's a chance he will fully snap at her and he wouldn't be sorry.
"I feel like you should be with someone extroverted." She suggests. "You know, someone to get you out of your shell."
Spencer needs a deep breath. "You're not being a good friend right now." He tells her much more calmly. There's not one thing he doesn't love about Y/n, whether she's more on the extroverted or introverted side."I'm going to marry her, whether you like it or not." It's not even what he expected to come out of his mouth.
"Spence-" JJ tries again to reason with him.
"No, don't you dare," Spencer says firmly. "You flew back and forth from New Orleans so many times to see Will, without telling us once and we were all accepting of your relationship. If you don't like my relationship, I don't care. But it's not too soon for me to know. We can talk about what you told me later, but for now, I'm going to dance with my girlfriend." Without another word, he gets up and walks off, leaving her a little gobsmacked.
Y/n frowns at him as he approaches the dance floor. "Are you okay?" She checks.
"More than okay," Spencer tells her with a soft smile.
"Dance with me then." She says, mirroring her smile and holding out her hand.
"I'd love to." He takes her hand just as a slow song comes on for them to sway together.
JJ gets ignored by him for the rest of the night, something unnoticed by Y/n but purposeful by Spencer. But it's fun. So much fun. And he's sure he wouldn't be having as much fun had Y/n not been there. She truly makes his day.
They're in the car later that night, parked near her apartment, ice cream eaten on the trip home. "I'm in love with you," Spencer admits when her laughter falls off after he tells a joke.
It's not a word they've said before.
Her expression is of pure shock, but joy quickly creeps in. "I'm in love with you too." She tells him, grinning.
And it's an entirely better confession than the one he heard 24 hours ago.

An: hi sorry Iâm picking this up again and Iâll try to post a new chapter once a week <3
â
The back up was quick to arrive after Spencer called which was immediately after Y/n left the car. Though when daniel tried to make his run and y/n got in the way, he was smart enough to not kill an officer but hit her with his gun on the head as he ran. Just not fast enough.
They got Danielâs confession of plotting over the victimâs company and an affair with his wifeâŠclassic. Y/n had called it apparently and much to Spencerâs displeasure she would rub this in his face for quite a while. Even with a head injury as she sat with legs dangling out of an ambulance pressing on her wound like the medics asked and worked on the injury.
Spencer too kept lingering on the injury closely, as if heâs the medic y/n thought to herself. The band aid was pressed huge on her forehead as Spencer examined it after the medics left âOkay thatâs enoughâ Y/n spoke pushing his concentrated face examining her injury away and proceeded to stand up.
Instantly he sat her down again by her wrists âDo not stand up too fast youâll get a concussion-â
âOh and you can prevent that doctor bizarre?â She spoke snorting.
âI canât but you might just not be able to turn up to the bureau tomorrow. I would have to do the paperwork for our case also I donât want to be held accountable for your injury, that you caused all by yourself doing something I advised you not to do but you did anyways because of your recklessness.â He explained flashing an ironic smile at her and helped her out of the ambulance, even though she couldâve stood out all on herself.
âBut we got the confession! Wait whose theory proved right again? Mine! And whose recklessness got us the confessions? Mine!â Y/n walked in front of him with backward steps to flash her all so victorious face in front of him as they walked towards the car.
She attempted to to open the door to the driverâs seat when Spencer got in her way âAbsolutely not. You might have a potential concussion and itâs dark right now believe it or not Iâd rather die of old age.â Sighing y/n rolled her eyes and walked to the other side of the car aware he was always so prepared for an argument, she was as well but not as of now. âYouâre a reckless driver anywaysâ Spencer added as the two of the entered the car.
âJust drive.â
Spencer drove the two of them back to y/nâs neighbourhood and most of the ride was just two of them going over each other faultâs on the case, Spencer criticising the stunt she pulled out there, y/n flaunting the success of her side of the theory. It was surprising how shortly the road back to her house leaded, they often lost track of time amongst their constant debates.
Before he pulled up by her house y/n asked him to stop about three blocks down her own house because she had to pickup Julian from his friendâs house. Spencer waited outside in the car as Y/n left, greeted the supposed Julianâs friendâs mom. It was just the later part of the evening around dinner time of suburban houses.
After a while y/n exited the house with Julian in her arms, fast asleep. She opened the door and buckled both her and Julian even though her house was just three blocks down âPick me up by 10 y/nâ she whispered to Spencer chuckling in a mocking of the Julianâs voice. âGuess fake sword fight is tiring enough.â
Reaching her house Spencer was the first one to get out of his seat while y/n unfastened her seat belt Spencer walked around to her seat opening the door for her, he gestured to pick up Julian from her arms but she shrugged her shoulders implying it was alright. âYouâve got a injury, let meâ he whispered as y/n gave in. He held Julian in his arms gently holding his torso and supporting the back of the 7 year oldâs head with his free hand as Julianâs face settled by the crook of his neck still sound asleep. It wasnât very often that Spencer would help her out this way, she recalled how he wouldnât even hold the door for her, heâd shut the door right before she was about to enter the room (she did the same), never once brought her coffee even if he fitted 4 in his hands, probably never even passed her a paperweight. Maybe a little band aid comes with perks she thought as she opened the main door to her house.
With silent steps through scattered toys in the living room careful not to wake up Julian, she guided Spencer through the stairs to Julianâs room. Spencer took in her house as he hadnât been much further than her living room and office room, the stairway walls were covered with pictures most of them of Julian and of y/n. Pictures of Julian as a baby to his first day of school and some Disneyland trips, arcade, Halloween, Christmas. Some older faces he gathered would be y/nâs parents and others of her family there were even a few pictures from the bau. He let out a low chuckle at her high school photo âThatâs you?â He spoke in a hushed tone.
âShut up.â She glared at him because obviously he found her younger self in her roller blades phase amusing. They reached Julianâs room and Spencer gently placed him on his spaceship themed bed with themed covers. Y/n crouched down to pull the blanket over him kissing the top of his forehead she turned on the night lamp on the side. Spencer observed the very expressive room of Julian as well as a profiler that habit didnât leave him much. One side of it was forest themed and the other had newer objects of astronomy obsession all around. The curious young minds of a million phases.
Once again reaching downstairs Spencer took his leave since he had to get back to his own house and the night was settling. âI will see you tomorrowâ he spoke as y/n leaned on her doorframe seeing him off. âWe still have the paperwork left so donât be late I wonât be doing your partâŠagain.â
âAs if youâve ever covered for meâ y/n scoffed as he got inside his car and waved at him one last time as his car pulled out of her driveway.
â
The very next day Y/n entered the BAU announcing very cheerily about the case, who got it right, receiving scoffs from Spencer like always. Emily wasnât sure if the plan to put them both on a case together mightâve worked or not âAt least they didnât kill one another. Cheers to thatâ JJ commented raising the cup she had in her hands.
âDonât get too smug we still have paper work for the case left and Iâd be delighted to write how partner irresponsible went completely against what I advised and got herself a head injury!â He added smiling at her pridefully because she was the one who got herself hurt. Heâd already told Emily that y/n forgot her gun prior to a stakeout. Snitch.
âIf I remember correctly partner irresponsible was the partner who cracked most of the case so wellâŠâ her voice trailed off as she tilted her head at Spencer and he rushed to his defence.
âCracked the case? Iâm sorry Iâve only been working alongside you on the case for the past whole week thatâs way too much use of singular nouns y/l/n.â
âAnd you didnât believe me until we had the confession you want to go thereââ
âWhat do you mean didnât believe you? Do you just expect me to take your word on cases without no input ofââ
This was a usual bau morning. Both of the brightest FBI agents fighting like kindergarteners âAlright alright thatâs enoughâ Emily stopped the ongoing debate of who was more efficient on the case between the two of them and parted them.
The team worked on the new class like always until before lunch break when y/n and Spencer continued on their paper work for their joint case, it took much longer than the rest of their paper case because it involved less clashes. Amidst the work y/n got a call and she hurriedly packed her table to leave, âWhere are you going? We still need to deliver these to the next unit.â Spencer asked looking up from his desk.
âI really need to leave canât you do that yourself?â Y/n spoke focused on finding her keys on the desk.
âWe are partners on this case remember so yeah absolutely not.â He amused relaxing further into his seat. âCant you leave during lunch break itâs almost time.â Heâd marked how she often didnât have lunches at bau but now that he knew of Julian it was quick to gather sheâd pick him from school, have lunch with him and return back. Surprisingly she was always on time so always in a hurry but her body language seemed rather stressed as she moved stuff from her desk.
âYou know what? Take the papers come with me weâll drop them off at the unit later itâs Julianâs school thereâs an emergency.â She spoke with a distressed demeanour hurrying her way as Spencer got up gathering their joint paper work like she asked him to.
âWhat happened is everything alright?â He concerned as they walked to her car, she was pacing much faster than usual.
âI donât know they just called me and told me Iâm needed thereâŠurgently!â She exhaled trying to calm her nerves as they buckled to leave. Spencer was sure he hadnât sat in the passenger seat much tensed as y/n drove quite past the speed limit.
They reached the school and it was almost a bit before the school was supposed to be over since the school buss and the pick up parents were already in their place, plus it was near to their lunch time at bau so Spencer gathered that. The two of them walked through the hallways of the school to the principalâs office and found Julian sitting outside, with crossed arms. Spencer also noticed another kid sitting across him just as upset.
âJulian!â Y/n called out and rushed to him, bending on both of her knees as she scanned the boy for any injuries âWhat happened?â
âI got into a fight with Tylerâ the boy replied with a downcast look as if he was embarrassed for what was about to come.
âItâs okay are you hurt anywhere?â Y/n cooed as he shook his head before she could be briefed more the door to the principalâs office opened as she stood up. âStay hereâ she told Spencer as he took a seat next to Julian on the little bench.
âWhat happened buddy?â Spencer asked him softly as the boy huffed dramatically sitting forward.
âYou see Tyler over there?â He whispered back to Spencer âHe is always fighting with me. Always. Today Miss Rosie decided to sit the two of us together so we would stop fighting. During recess he stole one of my Oreos and y/n only packs me two!â He exclaimed shrugging his shoulders at Spencer.
âWell isnât it a good habit to share?â Spencer spoke raising his brows at Julian but he had a resort for that too.
âIt is! But he never wants to share the carrots or the spinach he always just steals the Oreos! He does it to everyone! We had an argument after snack time again and he circled all his friends and wasnât letting it go! So I tried moving past him but he fellâŠall on his own! I didnât even push him he wasnât even hurt but he lied and told everyone I pushed him!â He explained to Spencer very defensively and he took note of his his brows furrowed together just like y/nâs, most of behaviourism habits amongst kids start at home. It looked almost resembling to y/nâs for Julian it was alright but y/n was always this dramatic.
Before Spencer could hear more of that the school bell rang as the kids flooded out of their classrooms along with y/n out of the principalâs office with supposedly Tylerâs mom given how she walked to the other kid with a cross look on her face.
Before y/n could greet her goodbye she left with Tyler rolling her eyes. Sighing y/n looked down at Julian as he held her hand to walk outside. âCome onâ she told both of them flatly as they exited the building.
The ride back was completely silent, at least for a moment. Y/n kept looking back at Julian through the rear view mirror as he looked outside the window, acting clueless. âYou pushed him?â She amused scoffing with a surprise, finally breaking the silence.
âI did NOT, he held the door to our class with all his friends and wasnât letting me go!â Julian replied folding his arms.
âSo you pushed him?!â Y/n asked again with her eyes on the road but she looked at Julian through the mirror, âAnd over what? What did you even fight about?â
âEveryone in my class knows youâre the big police-â Julian began but Spencer couldnât help interrupting at the term âbig policeâ
âUh what is big police?â He questioned but y/n replied for him shortly.
âFBI is the big police for him.â
âBecause it is y/n! I told him you got hurt by your head fighting off the bad guys and everyone thought that was so cool! But because you told Jakeâs mom in the morning what actually happened everyone laughed at me why did you do that!â He exclaimed turning around the blame.
âWow-wow!â Y/n gasped surprised âWhy did you lie?â She emphasised on you âI told you I was doing the laundry last night and the edge of the machine hit my head-thatâs what happened and thatâs what I told jakeâs mom because she asked me!â It was infact a lie and Julianâs theory if only to look cool, was right but Spencer knew that and he looked at y/n confused. She gave him a slight nod meaning sheâd explain later and he wasnât the one to burst her lie as it is she wouldâve surely thought something behind telling Julian another story.
âThat sounds lame! Being the big police fighting bad guys makes you sound so much cooler. Jake told Tyler what you told his mom and you werenât that cool anymore!â He waved his hands in the air resting them at the sides of his seat.
âWell Julian you know we donât lie so thereâs thatâŠâ she explained to him as her voice trailed off.
âAnd for the record I did not push him! He fell because of him and wasnât even hurt but he blamed meâalso he called you fake!â
âCalled me fake?â Y/n asked confused on what that implied even though she wasnât as interested in first graderâs insults but it mattered to Julian.
âHe said FBI stands for fake bad investigation police!â Julian spoke and Spencer couldnât help but smile at that and remained silent as the scene unfolded in front of him.
âWhat? Iâve told you what FBI means what does it matter?â She spoke unable to smile herself at how creative first graders were.
âI know and I told him thousand million times that it stands for French stick beauty of investigation.â
âForensic bureau of investigation.â Both y/n and Spencer corrected him at the same time as he nodded sure that, his pronunciation was the correct one. âEither ways Julian, I know you donât like Tyler but if you try and be nice to him heâll be your friend in no time!â
âBut I donât want to be his friend!â Julian exclaimed.
âYeah and he also steals his Oreos!â Spencer added for him as Julian sat forward in his seat agreeing with Spencer who only found this dispute as funny as y/n did but she was the one who had to deal with it of course.
âDonât.â She spoke to Spencer âNo Julian see if you make up your mind you donât want to be friends with certain people because you got off on the wrong foot youâll miss out on a lot of great friendships!â
âThen why are you not friends with Spencer?â The boy asked raising both his brows being in the interrogating position now. âHe doesnât seem a meanie to me! You also once called him the s-word.â Y/n often shared talks of her friends and how her days went in Julianâs language the way he would talk to her about his day and Spencer was wellâŠher arch nemesis.
âThe S-word?â Spencer fake gasped crossing his arms at y/n.
âS-t-e-w-p-i-d.â Julian whispered to Spencer but y/n heard it too and she was aware the s-word stood for stupid.
âWow!â This time Spencer was actually shocked âStupid? Y/n seriously?â
âCome onâ she huffed shrugging it off as if she hadnât said much worse to his face already and likewise âI am friends with Spencer you see even though he doesnât listen to me often makes my job harder and always picks fights at me heâs still my friend and Iâm nice to him.â
âOf course not!â Spencer exclaimed almost instantly âIm the one whoâs nice to her sheâs always bullying me.â Both his and Julianâs laugh followed as y/n nudged Spencerâs elbow âSee! She is my Tyler-always stealing my coffeeâŠrolls my chair everytime she passes by always-â
âOkay okay that was one time but did you know heâs always whining and making up complains about me to Emily?â Y/n defended herself but as their conversation escalated theyâd both realised how many similarities their feud had to a dispute between first graders. Maybe the team wasnât that wrong after all.
Pulling up by her house y/n dropped off Julian as his nanny was already there, sheâd told him sheâd return for lunch with him right after she drops off the papers to an âactualâ police unit and Julian took a note of flaunting about y/n knowing actual police in his school tomorrow.
â
As it was just the two of them in the car again Spencer asked âWhy did you tell Julian you got hurt by the edge of the washing machine?â He wouldnât possibly judge her of course he was just curious given Julian preferred the better sounding story anyways.
âItâs a cool story to him now if I tell him I fought off the bad guy, caught a murderer and so on but you know when he grows up I donât want him to think that Iâm in danger with the job I doâŠonce he reaches an age where he understands more heâll only be afraid about this stuff and Iâd rather him know a lame story than be afraid.â She explained simply as Spencer was a bit stunned. In truth, all their lives often remained on brisk with some complicated cases. But sheâd thought much further for how Julian would feel about it, she was that understanding.
The serene worrying air she carried around her whenever anything came to Julian was truly a self or her he wasnât aware of. The little family she had in Julian, the nurturing childhood she was giving him. As much as it hurt him to think neither of his parents could give that to him what y/n was managing quite well all on her own. Not once sheâs shown up at the BAU without a smile or bothered with the hectic scenes of home given raising a child all by oneself wasnât easy. At the same time it also troubled him why he was thinking of y/n this way, she was great for Julian but what of it? She was still his annoying colleague why did so much thought of her even occupy him?
