Summary
The idea was a terrifying one—that he had lost time, lost his own body, and that The Lab probably had something, if not everything, to do with it. At least Steve had faced strange enough shit to have hope that this was fixable. Just another clandestine operation gone wrong in the sunny paranatural hellscape that was Hawkins, Indiana.
He just needed to "be" Billy Hargrove until he could get to school and find him — hopefully in Steve’s body, which wasn't exactly comforting that somehow that psychotic asshole being in his body had suddenly become the best case scenario. But still, that was the only plan Steve seemed to have right now, so he’ll do it. He’d be Billy Hargrove.
How hard could that be?

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.

”So, what? I just go pick up random men and then call you up when I want to see you, and then we come into work and pretend none of that happens?”
Reid nods, ”If you wanted to, yeah. I think it would do you some good, honestly.”

Summary
While Aaron Hotchner trains for his upcoming triathlon, fate intervenes and instead of meeting Beth, he runs into Spencer.
A brief, and entirely unexpected spark ignites between them.
However, there’s little time to dwell on it. Both men are abruptly called into work, where Erin Strauss hands them a case unlike any other. For two years, queer couples who've attended an exclusive “Retreat and Therapy Centre” have turned up dead in their homes, one by one, after their stay.
Now Hotch and Reid must go undercover as a couple inside Daniel Bartlett’s secluded program, posing as partners in need of “treatment.” Their mission: uncover who is targeting the attendees before another pair ends up dead.
The closer they get to the truth, and to each other, the more dangerous the unusual assignment becomes.
