Summary
The soft glow of the pool light casts dancing shadows on his already gaunt features, accentuating his high cheekbones, his deep set eyes and exhaustion ridden dark circles.
He’s as beautiful as always, in Aaron’s eyes. Ethereal, almost. Deeply burdened.
Hotch makes his mind up easily then, nodding along as he processes Reid’s distressed rambling and reaching down to start untying his shoes.
It’s only when he stands again and starts to approach the pool that Reid finally looks up, his brows climbing his forehead when he notices Hotch moving to sit beside him.
“What are you doing?” He asks quietly, squinting almost as if he’s suspicious of Hotch’s motive here. Maybe he is. Aaron can be self aware enough to admit this is an uncharacteristic move for him. Spencer tends to bring that out in him.
“Sitting with you,” Hotch replies as if it’s obvious, as if this is at all normal for him.
AKA Spencer has a bad night, and Hotch is there to make it better.

Summary
The camera clicks off, the screen going black. The reflection of two agonized agents mirror back at them.
"Sonofabitch, man," Derek says. He runs a hand across his scalp.
"I never would have taken this case," JJ says, voice choked with emotion. "Never!"
"Why didn't he tell us?" Morgan demands. "He should have told us!"
*****
It's a case JJ never would have taken if she'd only known. Recovering from the trauma of being stalked herself, JJ convinces the team to take the case of a woman suffering the same fate.
If she'd known the husband was one William Reid, the estranged father of her best friend, she'd never have taken the case.
Especially when it becomes painfully clear how the man has hurt Spencer Reid.
