    Summary

    “We’ve survived this far, we can survive whatever happens next.”
    “You really think so?” He holds your hand tightly, eyes wide and bright, and you know he needs the truth.
    “I do.” You say, holding his gaze. “I really do.”
    He cracks a lopsided smile, “So you’re probably not going to die a virgin, then.”
    You blink, taken aback. “What?”
    “The thing you said, at the Russian base.” He explains, his cheeks turning a little bit pink.
    “Oh yeah,” you remember, “That.”
    Steve searches your face for a second, and then swallows thickly, as if reaching a decision. He still holds your hand, his palm warm against yours.
    “You know, in case something crazy and bad does happen again, I could, uh, I mean we could,” he clears his throat, “You know, we could make sure.”
    “Make sure…?” You ask, wanting to be absolutely sure you were understanding him correctly.
    “You don’t die a virgin.” He fills in quickly, the words rushing out of his mouth.

    In an attempt to lighten the mood as you and your best friends face imminent death, you make a joke. It’s a stupid joke, but it ends up changing everything...at least you can blame it all on the Russians.

    Summary

    "It’s nice to see you.”
     

     

    You were perfectly aware that it was neither good nor bad to see you, that he was going through the same motions everyone did when running across someone from high school. Feign interest, suggest that the two of you had known each other better than you ever did, and hopefully never, ever run into them again.

     

     

    No one likes their summer job. Working at a coffee shop was sticky, exhausting, and overall boring. In fact, the highlight of your day was the charming, gentle eyed sailor scooping USS Butterscotch just across the way.

    Along with the alluring possibility of meeting once again with Hotch, Spencer finds himself diving headfirst into something he's not sure if he can stop.

    "It matters not how strait the gate,
    How charged with punishments the scroll,
    I am the master of my fate,
    I am the captain of my soul."
