Healing

Chapter 2

Spencer woke up to his alarm and got out of bed. He took a shower, dried his hair, got dressed, grabbed his bag, and walked downstairs. Audrey was eating ceral and working on her study guide.

"I'm sure you'll pass, Audrey." He told her.

"Just finishing the last couple questions. After all it is a grade." She replied.

She finished her ceral and put the bowl and spoon in the sink. She put her folder in er bookbag and picked up her car keys.

"You drive?" Spencer asked with a smirk.

"You're funny." She replied, "got my license last year and you surprised me with a car when I came home with it."

"You know what I don't recall that." He chuckled.

Audrey playfully punched his arm, "you're gonna be late for work, Spence."

"And you're going to be late for school." He replied back.

"Ha, ha, ha, you need to leave first so I can get to school. Dr Reid." Audrey smirked.

"And you need to watch your tone, Miss Reid." Spencer chuckled.

"Here's a tone you can study. Mmmmm." She stuck out her tongue.

They both laughed. They locked up the house and walked to their cars. They hugged each other.

"I'll text you when I land in wherever the hell I'm going." Spencer told her.

"I'll make sure to leave my phone on vibrate because you text me like a madman on crack." Aubrey replied.

"Only because I care about you." He smiled.

They both left and Spencer drove to work. He parked at the office and got in the elevator. Rossi rushed in behind him.

"Oh hey, Rossi." Spencer greeted.

"Hey Reid. How was Audrey when you got home?" He asked.

"Studying again as always." He answered, "she'll study 24/7 even if she already knows the information and she gets A+'s every time."

"Did you forget that she's you little sister?" He laughed, "you both keep your noses in books."

Spencer chuckled, "at least I know I won't have worry about her when she's home alone while I'm working."

They reached the office and walked in.

"Hey pretty boy." Morgan chuckled, "how are you this morning?"

"Wishing I was sleeping." Spencer joked.

"Not today, Spence we have another case on our hands." Emily said.

"Hotch wants us at the round table." Garcia added.

They all sat at the round table in the office and Garcia pulled up some photos.

"In Atlanta, Georgia, 35 year old Amy Gamble was found last night on the side of the highway with her head bashed open and multiple burns on her body." Garcia explained as she pulled up more pictures.

"Any signs of rape?" JJ asked.

"No rape involved." She answered, "also, a few days prior, 30 year old Tessa Wilker was found on another highway also with her head bashed open and burn marks on her as well."

"All victums are women so far?" Rossi asked.

"As far as we know, yes." Hotch answered, "this unsub is targetting women so far and torturing them until they die from blood loss or too much pain. We'll fly to Atlanta and gather more information at the police station. Wheels up in 20."

Spencer pulled out his phone ans started texting Audrey.

"Don't you think Audrey would get in trouble for having her phone go off in class?" Emily giggled.

"She's very sneaky with her phone I've witnessed her do it before. She also keeps it on vibrate so the teacher won't be alerted by her phone." Spencer explained.

"She is a Reid after all." JJ said; giving the compliment that she was intelligent.

Spencer texted Audrey.

Spencer: The case is in Atlanta GA. I don't know how long this case will be. But I will let you know when I'm on the way back home.

He intantly got a text back.

Audrey: For every case you get, it takes 1-2 days. I've calculated the hours, minutes, and seconds of every case you've done. I'll do my normal routine.

Rossi hummed in curiousity, "what's your sister's normal routine while we're on cases?"

Spencer softly smiled, "she drives to school, drives home, does laundry, organizes the house, always does her homework, and if time she reads her favorite book The Shining by Stephen King."

"A very busy Miss Reid. She acts like a house wife." Rossi chuckled.

"Noooo she's very OCD." Spencer laughed, "come on we're going to miss the plane."
