Looking at the clock the time said seven. "JJ they should be back by now, we might have a small issue." She nodded, "Lets try calling them first." Picking up her phone she dialed Dereks number and stood there impatiently as it went right to voice mail, "His phone must have died." I shook my head and grabbed my phone from my back pocket, "I'm telling you, get Garcia on the phone right now, Ill try spencer but I know something is wrong." Listening as I clicked his number it also went straight to voicemail. "Shit..." JJ looked at me worried, "He didn't answer either." She nodded and Garcias voice filled the air, "Speak and be heard." JJ Sighed and I cut her off before she could speak, "Garcia, Its Nicole. Reid and Derek aren't back from their trip with the sheriff, both of their phones are going straight to voice mail." She was silent, "So do you think he...." Garcia trailed off as Hotch walked into the room. Motioning for him to close the door he sighed, "What are you guys doing?" I shook my head, "I know I should've told you but sheriff remirez has a sketchy record, he went out with Spencer and Derek at one and they still aren't back. Their phones are both going straight to voicemail." He nodded, "Garcia Can you  get anything location wise?" She was silent for a few minutes and then spoke, "The last location I got was out near the beach, that was at.... six forty five. "

The sirens on the SUV  screamed as we flew down the highway toward the beach, before JJ could even stop all the way my door flew open. Remirez stood behind Spencer and Derek. They were both knelt in the sand and the sheriff had his back toward us. Creeping around I spoke loudly. "Sheriff, you dont want to do this." Turning around startled he held the gun to Spencers head. Morgan slowly started to move away but Remirez shot his gun into the air, "Dont move!" Morgan scrambled back to his spot and I slowly moved my gun back into the holster. Putting my hands up I spoke softly, "Antonio, put the gun down. I know you dont want to hurt him." Swinging the gun towards me his hands shook as he spoke. "Shut up!" Pointing the gun back at Spencer he shook even harder. Another police car showed up blairing lights and sirens and his eyes lit up, "They all need to see what I'm able to do, Im not weak like everyone says." Nodding I smiled playing into his fantasies, "Look around Antonio you're already going to be famous. Your name will be on all the news station and in every news paper." He smiled and slowly lowered the gun. Spencer kicked the gun away and Derek pinned him into the sand quickly. He began shouting as Derek handed him over to the local police. Spencer walked closer and wrapped his arms around my waist. My arms tangled around his neck and I whispered softly, "Are you ok?" 

Sitting on the jet home I looked out the window in a daze. Emily broke the silence as she sat across from me. "How is he doing?" she motioned to Spencer who's head was rested on my shoulder as he slept lightly. I nodded softly, "He's okay I think. He had a rough day it may take some time for him to readjust." She sighed and turned to me, "How are you?" 
"I'm not sure." She gave me a questioning look and I shook my head looking at Spencer, "We have a daughter now, and after all that had happened today was just another example of how much our job could and will change her life." Emily nodded, "This job is a sacrifice but at the end of the day you will both be the best super heros in her eyes, and it reassures you that you are trying to make this world safer for her." I nodded and brushed Spencers hair out of his eyes. Groggily he sat up and spoke with a hoarse voice, "Is everything alright?" Standing up I smiled, "I'm just going to make a tea."
The plane landed smoothly in Virginia and the cool night air made my hair stand on end.  Spencer walked silently toward my truck and sat in the passenger seat without a word. Climbing in next to him I looked at him cautiously,  "Spence if you need to talk I'm here." Silently he nodded and closed his eyes taking a deep breath.
