The Set Up

Caught

Reid's POV
For the next two months Aaron and I sneak around, we spend as much time together as possible.

Morgan's POV
It's been two months since I found Hotch making out with someone at the pub. If anything they seem farther apart then before. Maybe we were wrong.

Reid's POV
It's Friday night and Aaron is coming over before we head to Rossi's for dinner. I wait on the couch and read a random book. I've cut once a month or less since I've been with Aaron. He knocks on the door and I let him in and we kiss deeply, he's wearing a brown collared shirt with a black jacket. We kiss again and find our way to the couch. For about an hour we make out and snuggle. Finally we have to go or we'll be late for Rossi's. Smiling at me he asks "you ready?"
I say "hang on, I'm going to go change my shirt quickly". He nods and I slip into my room, I'm already wearing black jeans. I open the bedroom door and ask "what should I wear?"
He walks over to me and I open my door wider to let him in. He looks in my closet and looks at me before saying "here". He passes me a forest green, semi-tight v neck shirt. He hands me a black blazer and says "you wore an outfit like this right after we got together".
I nod and say "yeah I remember". I kiss him and say "I'll wear it".
He heads out of the room and I slip on the outfit, when I step out I smile at him. Aaron gently holds my waist and says "god you are gorgeous".
I kiss him and say "how much time do we have".
He glances at his watch and says "none" and then kisses me again. He slips his hand into mine and says "let's go".

Hotch's POV
I drive and spencer sits next to me, I hold his hand as he drives. When I pull up I glance at the house and quickly kiss him. We head to the door and I knock Rossi greets us and we join the rest of the team. I sit across from spencer during dinner. Our feet are tangled under the table and he smiles down at his plate.
JJ catches him and asks "what's with you?"
He just says "It's nothing".
Emily says "smiling is nothing".
Spencer says "I will keep my 'nothing' to myself".
Rossi says "this is getting boring guys".
Everyone nods but spencer and I and we both say "what?"
Garcia giggles and Morgan says "it's nothing".
Spencer pouts and I say "alright".
Spencer says "wait, why can't I know? I mean I understand why Hotch can't but why not me?"
I say "what?"
He turns to me and says "you're the boss".
I frown and Garcia says "Reid, my boy, you are too innocent".
Spencer frowns and I can tell it hurt him more than they think. Our feet stop moving together and his still, I rub his feet gently with mine and he relaxes the smallest bit.

Reid's POV
Once dinner finishes we sit in the living room. I sit cross legged on the floor and Aaron sits on a chair right next to me. Morgan asks me "hey kid, how's the social life?"
I frown and ask "why?"
He shrugs and says "just curious".
I say "good I guess".
Garcia asks "does boy genius have a date?"
I frown again and say "why does my social life matter to you guys?"
Emily says "we are interested".
I say "I don't think I like when you guys are interested or curious".
We all laugh and I know Aaron notices little dips in my mood. A little later Rossi says "hey kid, will you ever tell us if you do get into a relationship?"
I frown again and say "no. I'm going to get more water".
I stand and leave and I hear Aaron say "me too" and join me. He follows me to the kitchen, thankfully you can't see the kitchen from the living room. He rubs my arms and says quietly "what's wrong spence?"
I say equally quiet "they keep calling me kid, boy, and innocent".
We don't speak loud enough for them to here us, he says "don't listen to them spence".
I say "Aaron what if people don't except us".
He stands close to me and asks "why spence?"
I say quietly "there's an eight year age gap between us, practically nine."
He glances at the door and then hugs me and says "it doesn't matter as long as we have each other...and we aren't caught fraternizing".
I laugh and place my hands on his chest and he wraps his hands around my lower waist. I smile and say cheekily "I think I love you Aaron Hotchner".
He smiles at me and says back "I think I love you Spencer Reid". I grin and he kisses me.
We kiss deeply and Morgan says loudly "shit!" We both jump back and see him in the doorway starring at us.
Everyone rushes over and Garcia asks "what happened?!"
JJ asks "is everything okay?"
They look from Morgan to us and I know I'm blushing a little bit. I look at Aaron scared and he looks at me, just as nervous. Rossi says "Morgan...what happened?"
Emily looks at Aaron and asks "Hotch, what's going on?"
He looks at me and then back at them and says "we need to talk". We walk back to the living room and Aaron and I sit on the couch and everyone rearranges so they can all see and listen. I look at Aaron nervous and Morgan eyes us. Aaron thinks out loud "where do we start?"
I glance at him and say "where else, the obvious".
He nods and says "right".
When he doesn't speak I say "well, umm so..." I mumble under my breath "gosh I've only done this once".
Aaron laughs and says "at least you have, I don't think mine counts".
I laugh and say "yeah I hate to break it to you but you have to use words".
He rolls his eyes and Garcia says "you people are killing me will someone just tell us what is going on?"
I look at Aaron and ask "you first?"
He shakes his head and says "no, you're the one with experience".
I sigh and say "okay, so umm I'm umm gay".
Everyone smiles and Aaron says "me too".
I say "that still doesn't count".
He rolls his arms and says "fine, I'm gay".
Everyone makes a fuss over us and Garcia stops them and says "wait, why'd Derek yell 'shit'?"
I blush and Aaron sighs and says "he saw us kissing".
Garcia squeals and everyone starts high five-ing and Rossi says "we've been trying to set you up since the end of summer".
Emily adds "we just thought you'd be cute together, we didn't even know if you guys were gay".
I say quietly "so you guys don't care about the age gap?"
JJ says "of course not! We've been trying so set you two up since we started doing dinner at the pub".
Garcia asks "wait! How long has this been a thing?"
I blush when Aaron says "a little over two months".
Everyone is shocked and Garcia says "so that really is Hotch's car we've been seeing at your apartment".
I nod and Morgan says "oh. My. God." Aaron and I know what he's talking about and so he pulls me against him. Morgan says "so that was you and Reid making out in the bathroom stall at the pub?!"
Aaron nods and I turn my face into Aaron's chest, the girls all aw at us and Aaron says "yeah, that wasn't our best discussion". I look up at him and he says "we let our guard down".
I say "twice".
Everyone talks about how cute we are and Aaron says "this can't get out, we're fraternizing".
I laugh and say "I'm fraternizing with my boss".
He nods and says "true, but it's worth it".
I smile and Garcia says "aww".
We all chat and I don't leave Aaron's side all night. When it's time to leave Aaron and I walk out hand in hand, he drives us back to his place and we kick off our shoes and crash on his bed. My hair flops in my face and he gently pushes it back and I look at him, our eyes filled with lust. He pulls me onto his lap and kisses me, after a while I turn us so he's on top and he kisses my neck. I'm still a little sore from two days ago so he mumbles against my neck "how are you?"
I say quietly "good".
He kisses me and when we break for air he says "you're a bad liar". And then he lays next to me pulls me against him and I snuggle into him and fall sleep safely in his arms.
