Summary
"I'm trying to document the interesting things that happen in my life," Spencer says.
Derek smiles at him. "I'm an interesting thing in your life?"

Penelope gifts Spencer a video camera.
It turns out that Derek Morgan is one of Spencer's favourite things to capture on film.

Summary
The first time Derek had ever called him Pretty Boy, Spencer Reid’s big, exhausted, ever-thinking brain had gone very suddenly quiet. And his dick had gone very suddenly hard.
Or,

Summary
Aaron gives him a look, soft and open. “Spencer, you’re going into heat. You were feeling abnormally cold, you took things that smelt like me, and you were nesting. Also, I can smell it.”
“Oh my god, I’m going into heat,” Spencer says blankly.
Or: Few things are more inconvenient to omegas than unexpected heats. For Dr. Spencer Reid, it's very inconvenient.

Summary
“Getting bored?” Hotch’s voice pulls him out of his rumination yet again, reeling him in and bringing his attention back to the very problem at hand.
Spencer shakes his head and sighs, glancing back at JJ and Rossi’s darts game before giving Hotch a halfhearted smile, more of a pursing of his lips than anything.
“To be honest I’ve been bored since the second I realized that they’re going to keep doing this for the rest of the night.”
Rossi harasses JJ to just take her shot already and Hotch drops his chin with a smile. After a moment he glances over again through dark eyelashes curtaining darker eyes, thoughtfully studying Spencer before a sly grin creeps across his dimpled cheeks, one thick eyebrow raising in a way Spencer can only describe as mischievous.
He nods to the still unoccupied pool table.
“You wanna play?”
AKA after being served divorce papers in front of his whole team, no one is expecting Hotch to honor his agreement to come out for drinks with them. He shows up anyway.

"Truth or dare, Prentiss?"
She doesn't move, just arches a single brow. Morgan's smiling like that, so whatever this is, it's going to be either illegal or emotionally compromising. Possibly both.
"Dare. Obviously."

Summary
In the aftermath of their case in Texas, Spencer has more than enough on his hands with the recovery from his gunshot wound. Unfortunately, his mind seems to be more preoccupied with Hotch, or rather, the lack of Hotch in his hospital room.
It bothers him, annoyingly so.
Or: An alternate take on the season 9 finale.

Summary
“You want to marry me?”
Aaron grins. It’s soft, not mocking, but Spencer feels the uncomfortable urge to squirm nonetheless.
“Does that surprise you?”
“Yes.” Spencer replies, instinctively, until he reconsiders more carefully. “No. I don’t know. Why are we talking about this?”
Or: five times Spencer contemplates marriage, and the one time he makes up his mind

Summary
“Doesn’t it bother you?” Garcia asks tentatively. Spencer’s eyes shoot up in surprise, and sure thing, she’s chewing her lower lip and fidgeting in Morgan’s hold. Huh.
“Bother me?”
“You know.” Emily steps in, waving her hands in nonsensical ways that do nothing to help him understand their point. “Him getting hit on, in front of you.”
The BAU team is very supportive of Spencer and Hotch dating. Which would be heartwarming and all, if they were actually a couple.

Summary
“H-hotch?”
Spencer squeaks, scrambling back against the dryer. It’s times like this where he forgets that they live in the same building, which is only facilitated by the fact that it barely plays a role in their day to day lives. It’s rare that Hotch offers him a ride, both of them so stuck in their usual routines that they end up taking their own ways to Quantico, and at work, it’s never a big topic of discussion either. Spencer also pointedly doesn’t allow himself to think about it, lest the potential domesticity of it all goes to his head and makes him slip up.
Perhaps, he should have kept his guard up more. Then again, what are the odds of walking into his superior at almost 5 AM in the morning, doing laundry?
“I-I thought you were away with Jack and Jessica this week.” Spencer sputters.
“You’re wearing my shirt.” Hotch points out, flat, straight to the point.
Or: Spencer has a slight mishap and needs to do his laundry in the shared laundry room of the apartment complex both he and Hotch live in. Half naked. In Hotch's shirt. It goes as well as you'd expect it to.

Summary
Spencer side-eyes Hotch, waiting for an apology or at least an acknowledgment or something, because this is the same guy that apologises for being too close to someone let alone touching them. Hotch is hyper-aware of anything to do with his body, most certainly physical contact, so there is no way he has not noticed this.

Or, 5 times Aaron initiates physical contact and thinks Spencer doesn't notice (and 1 time it's Spencer initiating).Bookmarked by arielbnear

Summary
Aaron had left twenty minutes earlier to pick up dry cleaning and stop by the hardware store. He had kissed Spencer briefly in the doorway before leaving. Spencer could still feel it, a warm press that had lingered just long enough to be remembered.
Jack dragged a chair across the tile with a scrape that made Spencer wince.
"Hey, buddy," Spencer said, folding the file closed. "Everything okay?"
Jack climbed onto the chair and folded his hands on the table like he was about to negotiate a treaty. He stared at Spencer with the kind of intense concentration only seven year olds and profilers could manage.
"Uncle Spencer," he said carefully, "are you my dad now too?"
Spencer blinked.

Summary
“I’ll drive you home,” Aaron says.
Spencer takes his hand, and what he means to say is thank you, but what slips from his lips is: “You can, you know.”
“I can what?”
“Watch me. I don’t mind. I like knowing you’re looking out for me.”
A halfway expression flits across Aaron's features, smack dab in the middle of contentment and frustration. It touches on vanity before it disappears entirely. Spencer mourns it once it’s gone.
He’s missing something.
reid gets caught with a man behind a bar, and then again, and again, and— hotch might be acting a bit...off, but it's not a problem.
it becomes one, eventually.
