She's The One (Criminal Minds Fanfiction) Hiatus

Chapter 48 Jones Part 1 (Episode 18)

Before I was in love, my mom always used to tell me, "you only end up regrets for not realizing your feelings sooner than you did. At the end of the day... you have to let them go." It still echoes through my mind and I didn't know JJ is in love with Reid.

Spen always reminds how much he loves me and never letting me go. He knows my insecurities and wanting me to be my side, for better or for worst. He's kind, gentle, caring and lovable husband that I could ever ask for.

Sometimes... deep inside of my heart, I'm still scared and terrified of the consequences. What if I end up like my parents get separated before? What if I end up just like my mother who wants to control their children lives? I don't want to become someone else but just be myself. I don't want to end up hurting again and losing someone I care... I might lose myself in the abyss, forever. ~Novilene Cruz

She's The One

Novilene is patting her husky dog, Sky on the lap. She is still thinking on how to inform Reid from her secret triplet brother. Reid deserves to know the truth especially he spills the secret of JJ's love confession to him.

"It scares me you can be like Gideon, Lenny." Novilene smiles feeling the familiar warm hands around her lower waist to pull her close.

"He's your father-in-law, Spen." She spoke softly and Sky barks then licking Reid's hand. "We're not working." The husky dog walks out to enjoy the garden outside.

"I know. Gi- I mean, Jason... won't give me tips on how to swoon, your stepdad." He pouts and Novilene laughs. "It's not funny."

"To say yes? I'll marry you Nathan?" Novilene asks Reid sarcastically and he rolls his eyes. "Dad and Nathan are rivals that relate to my life. However, they respect each other's perspective. Dad knows Nathan but he wouldn't say a single soul of his life."

"I'm meeting him at the weekend." He groaned. "Maricar thinks it would be a great idea to hang out with him just us."

"You'll be fine... if it makes you feel better, Ethan is going to spy on you two." Reid gives her a deadpanned expression. "I'm just kidding. You two are going to get along just fine."

"Is there something on your mind, Lenny?" He asks her curiously seeing Novilene's eyes are distant.

"Some people know this secret." She sighs softly. "Angelique and I aren't twins... we're triplets."

"Tri-tri-triplets?" Reid looked shocked to hear it. "Ho-ho-how?"

"Mom and dad decided it would be best to keep it a secret that we have a brother. His name is Stephen and naming my Godfather's second name." She smiled and rubbing her small bulging stomach. "Only a few people know his existence and please... don't mention it to anyone."

"I won't..." He frowned. "Why keeping it a secret?"

"Dad works for the Government and he's been a bit paranoid." She smiled sadly. "He puts the criminals on the jail and scared they might hurt us or worse."

"Have you spoken to your brother?" She shakes her head. "Why?"

"I'm scared that he might hates me." Looking up the sky with a sad look on her face. "Everyone knows I'm Gideon's child, not children. I haven't seen him physically."

"We can see him together." He suggested and Novilene looked at him with a surprised expression. "You and Octavia need to face your long lost triplet brother. You three deserve to be with each other."

Novilene is thinking through and knowing Olivia want to see Stephen as well. She kissed Reid on the lips and he returned it back. "What would I do without you? I don't deserve you, Spen." Closing her eyes and pressing her forehead against him.
